Chapter 2565 Entering the Palace and Meeting


Chapter 2565: Entering the Palace and Meeting

At three o'clock in the morning, lights and candles were lit one after another in the backyard of the house.

Fang Jun got up from the couch, washed and bathed under the service of the maid, changed into court clothes, had a few bites of breakfast, and then went out to attend court.

At this time, the sky has not yet dawned, and the gloomy night has enveloped Chang'an City. The drizzle has not stopped. Although the rain is not heavy, the cold air rushes towards the face, and the dampness and cold invade the body. There is already a hint of autumn. The sun is cool.

Dozens of soldiers were already ready to go. Fang Jun walked out of the yard holding an umbrella and boarded the carriage. The soldiers got on their horses one after another, more than a dozen lanterns swayed in the rain, and the sound of horse hooves was mixed with the patter of rain, and they walked out of the house.

Fang Jun lifted the car curtain and looked towards Duke Zhao's Mansion. In the dark night, Duke Zhao's Mansion was brightly lit...

After exiting Fangmen, we turned north, passed Yongxingfang, then turned west, walked through many long streets, entered Yanximen, and then walked along Tianjie to Chengtianmen. , waiting to enter the palace to attend court.

The tall and majestic entrance of Chengtianmen stands in the night and rain, like a huge beast from the wild, which is very depressing. The lights on the city tower are bright, creating a dark shadow below near the palace gate. At this moment, there are already several people on the gate. The ministers of the court were waiting here, and the horse lanterns on the carriages emitted a faint light orange light, reflecting the drizzle.

When Fang Jun arrived in front of the palace gate, he chose a place to stop. The ministers who had arrived early lifted their curtains and looked over. Others came to court with just a carriage, and at most they were accompanied by a few or two, while Fang Jun Jun's troops are surrounded by soldiers, wearing helmets and armor, and they are in full formation. They look murderous and attractive, even if they don't want to...

More carriages came one after another and stopped in the shadows in front of the palace gate.

When Mao hour came, all the lanterns on the city gate tower were suddenly lit, illuminating the square in front of the palace gate. Immediately, the palace door opened, and first a group of forbidden soldiers ran out quickly from the door. They were lined up on the left and right sides of the palace door. They stood attentively with their helmets and armours, holding horizontal knives in their hands. Then there were chamberlains who came out holding umbrellas and arrived at each vehicle. In front of the carriage, he bowed and held up his umbrella and placed it in front of the carriage door.

The ministers got off the car, and the chamberlain held an umbrella to protect them from the rain, and walked towards the palace gate.

Fang Jun also got out of the car and walked quickly to the palace gate under the umbrella held by a chamberlain. Everyone stopped here briefly, lined up and entered the palace together to attend court.

Some of them are familiar with each other, and they will exchange a few words at this moment, and even joke with each other, and the atmosphere is quite relaxed.

Ma Zhou came from behind, stood next to Fang Jun, glanced at him and whispered: "Be careful today."

What did Fang Jun mean by the way of nature? He smiled and said softly: "Brother, there is no need to worry. My younger brother seeks benevolence and wishes to be benevolent, and he will die to make his ambition clear. Even if his body is shattered, what is there to fear?"

"..."

Not only Ma Zhou, but also the surrounding ministers couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard this.

Could you be any more shameless? Even if it is obvious that you are about to be impeached today, and you have been wronged for standing up for His Majesty, why would you "die to make your ambition known"?

Wang De, the chief chamberlain, stood in front of the palace gate. Seeing that the ministers had already got off the car and gathered here, he respectfully said: "Let's enter the palace and attend court now."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the palace gate.

As the ministers were about to follow, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves behind them, causing everyone to look back and saw a group of cavalry approaching quickly with a carriage surrounded by them.

When they got closer, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

This group of knights did not wear raincoats or bamboo hats, but wore linen and mourning and marched in the rain. Everyone looked solemn in the rain. Although they did not wear weapons, they were all full of murderous intent!

When the carriage stopped in front of the palace gate, the curtains were lifted, and a servant ran up to hold up an umbrella. Changsun Wuji, dressed in linen, got out of the carriage, looked around, and stood silently at the end of the queue to enter the palace. Without saying a word, there seemed to be a murderous aura condensed all over his body.

All the ministers couldn't help but look at each other.

Naturally, everyone has heard about what happened in the capital in the past two days, and they have their own channels to understand the inside story and the detailed ins and outs. Most of them have even received notifications from their respective camps and know that Fang Jun, the leader of today's court meeting Impeachment is about to happen, and everyone either agrees, opposes, or is neutral. They are all prepared.

But he never expected that Changsun Wuji, who had experienced the pain of losing his son, would not preside over the funeral in his mansion, but instead go to court in person...

Obviously, Changsun Wuji wanted to knock Fang Jun down in one fell swoop and vent his anger!

Everyone saw Changsun Wuji, and then naturally they all looked at Fang Jun standing in front, but saw that the instigator not only had a blank expression, but instead nodded slightly with a smile on his face, and said: "Zhao Guogong has gone through the pain of losing his son. , I’m afraid my heart is stagnant and I’m in pain, and I’m afraid it’s raining and falling again today. Cold invades the body, your body is already old and frail, so why rush to come to court? If dampness and cold invade the body, it will be very bad. Heed the advice of your superiors, you should go back to your house and take care of yourself. , It is best to arrange the funeral of Erlang of your house in a dignified manner and to lay him to rest.”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers were speechless.

Isn’t this mouth too damaging? He braved the wind and rain and didn't care about his son's funeral and just waited to go to court. Don't you know that he just wanted to get your copy?

Besides, no matter what, my son died because of you, but you are here to make sarcastic remarks. It is so wicked...

Of course, everyone also knows that there are many inside stories behind the whole incident and the implications are huge. It cannot be measured by simple moral ethics. It is obvious that these two people are tit-for-tat and will not give in. They have a "you die or I die" attitude and they can easily decide it. Don't get involved.

Naturally, the officials who were born in Long were also concerned about Changsun Wuji, and they all spoke out and scolded him.

"Unbridled! Duke Zhao is a meritorious figure of the imperial court. He is dedicated to serving the country. Whether he is in the imperial court to discuss matters or at home for mourning, how can a junior like you be allowed to comment?"

"You are ruthless and have no regard for national laws. You dare to order your soldiers to harm good people. You don't know how to respect and obey the law. You also dare to scream arrogance here. You are simply lawless!"

"The sky has eyes, and the sun and the moon can be used to judge. Today, you, a treacherous person, will be dismissed from office, exiled to the army and exiled!"

……

There were shouts and curses, and there was a commotion in front of the palace gate.

Fang Jun smiled and said nothing, too lazy to reply. He let the officials from Guanlong jump around and scold him, while he just looked at Changsun Wuji with a faint smile, with an inscrutable expression on his face, "I still see through the truth."

These people cursed harshly, but in their hearts they had already separated from Changsun Wuji. Now it is just because after Changsun Wuji "sacrificed" his son, these people have to remain in the same spirit.

Why did Changsun Wuji go to court in person regardless of his status and ignore the funeral?

It was because he no longer had the close relationship with the Guanlong nobles who apparently still supported him as their leader, so he had to go to court in person to impeach Fang Jun.

He was afraid that if he wasn't around, these people would make a fuss and end up just ending...

Changsun Wuji's eyes were bloodshot and he looked haggard. He glared at Fang Jun fiercely, with a fierce look in his eyes that wanted to kill Fang Jun, but he remained silent without saying a word.

Wang De, the head chamberlain, was sweating profusely. Seeing that the Guanlong nobles were still shouting and scolding, he was afraid that Fang Jun's "stick" would get angry and fight in front of the palace gate to teach everyone how to behave. It would be impossible to end it by then, so he quickly shouted loudly Said: "No noise is allowed in front of the palace gate! The time has come, and all ministers are requested to enter the palace quickly to attend court. Don't miss the time!"

Only then did the Guanlong nobles stop talking, and everything became quiet again in front of the palace gate.

They were just expressing their opinions in front of Changsun Wuji. In fact, they had the same worries as Wang De. Who didn't know that the second roommate was a stick? If he gets angry and fights, which one of them with old arms and legs will be his opponent?

If you were beaten right in front of the palace gate, you would be really disgraced and become a laughing stock for the rest of your life...

Fang Jun looked calm, withdrew his gaze, turned around and stood still, ignoring him again.

The waiter beside him secretly swallowed a sip of saliva and moved the umbrella in his hand forward to cover the rain in the sky, not caring that half of his body was already soaked by the rain.

This Fang Shaobao is really remarkable. He faced the attack of the Guanlong nobles without changing his expression. He seemed to be a mainstay and remained motionless. If it had been someone else who had been under the fierce scoldings of the Guanlong nobles, he would have been killed. My legs are sore and I am so shocked...

The palace door opened, and lanterns lit up inside the palace, extending forward, illuminating the road leading to Tai Chi Palace. (End of chapter)
