Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

After all, without waiting for Li Chunfeng's consent, Guo Ye dragged him out of the room in a hurry, went down the second floor and ran out of the inn, and rushed straight to the scene in front of Suzaku's gate, so as to meet with Chen Kang and Yu Shinan in victory .

Chapter 687

"The emperor is coming to the tower of Suzaku Gate!"

On the tower of Suzaku Gate, His Majesty Li Er in a dragon robe was surrounded by a group of palace people, and appeared in front of everyone wearing a golden canopy.

Eunuch Shun, who was with him, screamed at the sound of killing a donkey: "The emperor is coming to the tower of Suzaku Gate. All ministers, students, and common people, kneel down to welcome you!"

Shua, Shua, Shua... 哗啦啦~

Under the city tower, outside the Suzaku Gate, people gathered along the street to watch the common people. Su Dingfang led thousands of sergeants from the Weifu yamen, three thousand students from the poor family in coir raincoats, Chen Kang, Yu Shinan, Kong Yingda and others all knelt down and bowed to the ground, shouting "Long live my emperor, long live" long live.

At this time, even the eldest grandson Wuji, who was tired of running around and dodging, saw the emperor's brother-in-law approaching the city, and immediately knelt down with tears of excitement in his eyes.

And the five centenarians who raised their sticks and chased him heard the movement on the tower, and stopped five steps away from Changsun Wuji, stopped chasing him, and turned their heads to look at the tower.

But in the whole scene, the five of them were the only ones who didn't kneel down to pay respects, because it was their prerogative to not kneel or worship the emperor, let alone they were centenarians.

The appearance of His Majesty Li Er shocked the messy scene immediately, time seemed to stand still at this moment, everyone except the five old men knelt down on the ground, bowed their heads and waited for the emperor's call in silence.

His Majesty Li Er looked down and changed from movement to silence, and the messy scene became a place where everyone held their breath and was lonely, with indescribable joy and satisfaction in their hearts.

Maybe this is what it feels like to wake up and take power in the world.

Unknown for a while, His Majesty Li Er waved his hand and said in a loud voice: "All my loves, all my students, all my people, let me be flat!"

Immediately afterwards, there was another wave of mountain shouts, long live thank you Lord Long En, all the talents of Suzaku's sect got up one after another, and looked up at the legendary emperor His Majesty.

Among the people present, most of them saw the real face of the emperor for the first time in their life, or else it was rare to see Long Yan.

His Majesty Li Er enjoyed the respectful and godlike attention of the people in the city, and shouted loudly at the gatekeepers of the Zhuque Gate beside him: "Quickly open the Zhuque Gate, are you still worried that the people of the Great Tang Dynasty will attack you?" Is it not good for me? Hurry up, quickly open the three gates of the imperial city, I believe that my people are all kind people who are dutiful and respectful."

In his words, he was friendly to the people in the city, and slightly harsh towards the guards around him.

The guard of the Suzaku gate dared not go against the emperor's will, repeatedly accused him of crimes, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to open the city gate.

Hearing His Majesty Li Er's high-sounding words, everyone downstairs burst into tears of gratitude, and they all chanted the words that the emperor loves the people like a son, the number one sage through the ages, and so on.

The compliments from these people really came from the bottom of their hearts, and His Majesty Li Er's ears were naturally delighted, and his expression was like a spring breeze.

Guo Ye, who was hiding in the crowd, watched His Majesty Li Er so easily earning enough public opinion with such a few words, he couldn't help admiring, grandma, it's really you who are gods, and ghosts are also you, His Majesty Li Er is so good at pretending up.

It's also strange that after the opening of the three gates, there was no scene of common people and students scrambling to rush into the imperial city. Everyone stood at the gate of Suzaku, adhering to His Majesty Li Er's Longyan and Tianwei.

When Guo Ye saw this, he sighed inwardly again. Alas, the people of the Han family are indeed the kindest, most docile and most disciplined people in the world. rule.

At this time, His Majesty Li Er looked at the five centenarians who were still standing in the scene leaning on their dove sticks. The five old men stared fiercely at Changsun Wuji angrily, as if they were afraid that he would run away.

He couldn't help secretly laughing, feeling a little sympathetic to his brother-in-law, and immediately said to the five old men: "The five old birthday stars are old, and they are my people who protect the fortune of the Tang Dynasty. Standing in the sun? How about I send someone to send the five old birthday stars back home first, okay?"

buzzing~~

The city was full of praise again, and people praised His Majesty Li Er's respect and respect for the elderly even more, and His Majesty Li Er took away some of the reputation of a saint and gentleman.

At this time, Su Dingfang walked out of the team and asked His Majesty Li Er, "Your Majesty, the last general is Su Dingfang, the general of the Weifu Yamen who leads the army on the right. He is in charge of the security of Zhuquemen today. Why don't the last general lead the people to send five Renrui Gongs?" Let's go back home, shall we?"

"Oh, you are Su Dingfang?"

His Majesty Li Er squinted his eyes and looked at Su Dingfang a few times, nodded slightly and praised: "Very good, today you can keep the scene calm, and you can still not fight against three thousand students. Very good, I am very satisfied. General Su, Then please lead the sergeants to work hard and send the five Renrui back home first."

"Eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king, this is what the last general should do, and he can't be praised by the emperor!"

After Su Dingfang humbled himself, he immediately called out to the team and prepared to escort the five old men home.

Unexpectedly, the old man surnamed Jiang among the five old men suddenly slammed the dove stick in his hand on the ground, and shouted to His Majesty Li Er on the tower: "Your Majesty, I have something to say, and I want to sue you!" The left servant of the Shangshu shot his eldest grandson Wuji. This person has committed a heinous crime, Your Majesty. Not only does he want to learn from Wang Mang and his like to usurp power and seize the throne, cover the sky with one hand and control the government, but today he almost ordered to shoot these [-] poor students. This, This is really too sensational, Your Majesty, if this thief is not eliminated, our court will never have peace!"

This old man surnamed Jiang accused Changsun Wuji like crackling beans, his face was not red and he was not panting, his body was really strong.

When Changsun Wuji heard the other party's complaint, his complexion changed drastically, and he was almost scared out of his wits. This old and immortal Nima actually splashed dirty water out of nothing, and said that he wanted to learn from Wang Mang. Wasn't he going to die himself? ?

Immediately, he quickly defended: "Your majesty, I am wronged, this is slander, slander. Don't you understand the emperor's character? How can I be that Wang Mang..."

"To shut up!"

His Majesty Li Er suddenly yelled at Changsun Wuji and said harshly: "Changsun Wuji, do you still think that you have not caused me enough trouble today? If it weren't for you, why would there be such a commotion today? Chang'an is big In the capital of the Tang Dynasty, wouldn’t the disturbance today be just a joke to the neighboring countries? What’s the face of the Tang Empire?”

"Uh……"

Changsun Wuji was indiscriminately scolded by His Majesty Li Er, and he felt a grievance in his heart. I was really tricked into a full set today. My lord, my eldest grandson Wuji was the one who lost face today. He is the biggest sufferer, okay?

While complaining in his heart, His Majesty Li Er put on a warm smile again, and said to the old man surnamed Jiang: "Jiang Weng, I have made it clear about the Suzaku Gate today, you go back first, and I will take care of myself." Deal with it. Don't worry, I am the emperor of the Tang Empire. Whether it is a commoner or a poor student, they are all my citizens of the Tang Dynasty. If I don't make decisions for them, I will still talk about the prosperity of Zhenguan. I still have He Yanmian claims to be the Khan of Heaven, and what face is he to be praised by the people of the world as the eternal sage? Don't worry, the Great Tang Dynasty is still my Great Tang Dynasty, and no one can influence me to uphold justice for my subordinates."

These words are not only for the old man surnamed Jiang, but from what Guo Ye heard, His Majesty Li Er repeatedly mentioned the country, the world, and the people. Listen to the Guanlong family represented.

Now that the emperor had said so, and given such face, the old man surnamed Jiang naturally knew how to accept it as soon as it was good. Anyway, what Yuan Tiangang asked them to do was almost done.

Immediately, he hummed, waved at the other four old men, and called back.By chance, under the escort of Su Dingfang's army, he squeezed out of the scene and left the place.

Seeing the five hundred-year-old birthday men leaving, His Majesty Li Er glanced at Guo Ye who was hiding in the crowd, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth unnoticed.

Then, he said loudly to the three thousand poor students in the city: "I am very sad and annoyed. Under my governance, I saw Qianqian students who were supposed to be pillars of the imperial court wearing coir raincoats and bamboo hats. I know that you are trying to show your resolve, you have decided to go to the fields to eat and stop studying, and you will no longer learn literary and martial arts, for the emperor's family. What is it that compels the three thousand students to throw away their books and go to work in the fields to fill their gaps? Full stomach, don’t tell me, I understand! This is not your shame, it’s the shame of the king of the country, it’s the court’s shame, it’s even more the Tang Empire’s shame. So, today you gathered people to make trouble at the Suzaku Gate , I don’t blame you, because it’s the imperial court, and I’m sorry for you.”

After finishing speaking, His Majesty Li Er took a deep look at Changsun Wuji, and then assured the three thousand poor students: "Don't worry, the imperial court has always treated scholars well, whether you are a poor student or a child of an official, the imperial court will treat you well." All of them are equally important. I put the harsh words here today. From now on, the imperial court must select only talents, so your grievances and your grievances, I promise to solve them together. Today, you all go back first , remember to take off the coir raincoat and go back through the market in a ostentatious way, I, the emperor, can't afford to lose face like this!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"The emperor is holy, may the emperor uphold justice for our humble children."

Three thousand poor students knelt down again, and under Chen Kang's leadership, they took off their coir raincoats one after another, revealing the cloth clothes and robes inside.

Soon, three thousand poor students left the arena one after another, retreating sparsely.

At this time, His Majesty Li Er gave Changsun Wuji another gouging look, which made Changsun Wuji feel guilty. Could it be that the emperor is really going to be forced to reduce the privileges of the children of the Guanlong family this time? The favor of a poor family?

Suddenly, he felt that he had done the most stupid thing today, and he shouldn't have come here to join in the fun, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen for Guo Ye's serial tricks.

This is a good thing, the emperor was forced to such a point, and in the end it was the interests of the Guanlong family that were harmed.

Guo Ye, it's Guo Ye again!

Changsun Wuji gritted his teeth and cursed.

Just when he was struggling with pain, His Majesty Li Er suddenly shouted at him: "Wuji, do you think you don't need to say anything because you have stabbed me? Hmph, you see that you have done a good job, this is not the place to talk." Land, you follow me into the palace!"

"Sir, alas, obey the order!"

Changsun Wuji was so depressed that he bowed his hands and took his life.
