Chapter 159 Horses stepping on the Golden Palace

In the Jinluan Hall, hundreds of civil and military officials stood in the hall, as silent as death.

They originally disagreed with letting the rebel in Yizhou sit in front of the palace. Even if the other party had the so-called ability to bring order to chaos, no matter what, he was still a rebel after all, and even one who dared to break into the palace and kill the emperor. The rebel--although the emperor himself was a pseudo-emperor who usurped power and throne, it was still a bit too deviant to have a rebel appear at the court meeting.

But right now, even if they have opinions, it's useless. The current situation is the idea of ​​His Majesty the Emperor on the Dragon Throne.In order to avoid the opposition of the officials, the emperor even bypassed the court and specially sent his trusted eunuchs to deliver the order.

This was the first time that their Emperor showed his thoughts.

In the past, Prime Minister Jia Wen wielded power in both the government and the public, and the emperor trusted him even more, even to the point of obeying his advice. Of course, this is a relatively nice way of saying it. To put it more unpleasantly, it means that Prime Minister Jia Wen is holding the emperor hostage to order his ministers. At that time, His Majesty the Emperor never had any judgment of his own.

But now...

Is their Emperor, His Majesty, crazy?
Thinking of this, some courtiers secretly raised their heads and observed the emperor on the dragon throne with their peripheral vision.

The emperor on the dragon throne still looked young, and there was even a bit of clear stupidity on his innocent face.

Maybe it's really okay to let Prime Minister Jia Wen continue to be emperor. After all, their emperor really doesn't look like a human king.

There was a commotion outside, and it was probably the rebel who had come in. Obviously, their Majesty's goal was finally achieved - until now, they still don't understand why the Majesty on the Dragon Throne insists on going his own way.

But soon, they no longer had the time to think about this.

Just because, a war horse has rushed into the hall.

"Who!"

Seeing the appearance of war horses in the Jinluan Palace, the civil and military officials instantly fell into a commotion.

"You actually dare to ride a horse in front of you! What kind of crime should you do!"

"Who!"

The rider on the horse also turned his head and looked around.

"Who said that! Stand up and let me see!"

……

Looking at the burly man on horseback who was nearly seven feet tall, the courtiers were silent for a moment and chose not to step forward.

It would only be embarrassing not to stand up, but if you stand up you will really get killed - strictly speaking, thieves like this who break into the palace without permission are always dealt with by the palace guards.And just as they were silent for a moment, the guards in armor had already rushed over and surrounded the man and his horse in the hall.

"Get off the horse! Get off the horse!"

The guards beat their shields and held their spears, approaching step by step.

But that still doesn't make much sense.

"Is this how you treat guests? Is this why you called me all the way here?"

The burly figure on horseback shook his head.

"That's fine, since you do this..."

"Don't do it!"

In this tense atmosphere, the old eunuch who had been accompanying the emperor ran in from outside the palace.

"Don't even do anything! This strong man is just a country man and doesn't know etiquette, so he... strong man, salute! Quickly salute His Majesty!"

"I'm riding on a horse and don't bother to salute."

As he said this, Du Chengfeng on horseback raised his head and looked at the young emperor on the dragon throne.

However, while the ministers were in an uproar, the young emperor on the dragon throne also raised his head.

"Why do you say this, my dear! Give me a seat now!"

"...???" This time, all the civil and military officials couldn't help but burst into an uproar, and even Du Chengfeng himself was a little confused.

"What are you doing standing still? Bring Aiqing a chair quickly!"

Saying this, the young emperor even stood up and kicked the guards beside him. He didn't stop until someone from the palace moved the chair over.

After looking at the chair in front of the officials and the excited little emperor, Du Chengfeng thought for a moment and still did not choose to dismount.

He was a little unsure of the emperor's approach.

In fact, not only Du Chengfeng, but also the civil and military officials were a little confused as to what the young Majesty was thinking - to know that the imperial throne was granted, which even the former power minister Jia Wen had never had. This honor, this extremely high standard of courtesy, is actually given to a rebel thief. This is simply...

"How decent! How decent is this!"

Some old ministers couldn't stand it any longer, so they simply rolled up their sleeves and turned around to leave.

With the departure of these old ministers, more and more courtiers chose to retire.

If His Majesty the Emperor's previous behavior was still within the scope of their acceptance, but in the face of such arrogant and domineering rebels, he still granted him a seat in front of the emperor. Such cowardly behavior really chilled their hearts.

This is not even as good as when Prime Minister Jia Wen was around. Although the traitor was also arrogant and domineering, at least he would maintain a semblance of harmony.

But now...

"My dear, did you see those people leaving?"

Just when the old ministers were about to leave the Jinluan Palace, the young emperor's voice sounded behind them.

"When Jia Wen brought trouble to Chao Gang, they never opposed it, but now they are not happy with Jia Wen's execution... I'm afraid they all had an affair with Jia Wen secretly, and even supported this traitor who usurped power. , secretly, maybe he will seek revenge on Aiqing."

"……Um?"

After hearing this, the old ministers who originally wanted to leave in a puff of their sleeves could not leave either.

These old ministers turned their heads in astonishment and looked at their emperor again. The young face still showed innocence and ignorance, and even a bit of clear stupidity - but this time, these old ministers had already After seeing through this mask of disguise, I saw something deeper and deeper hidden inside.

Once upon a time, they thought that it was the Prime Minister Jia Wen who was acting against the will and holding the emperor hostage to order his ministers.

But looking at it now...

Who is it and who is being held hostage?
"Gentlemen, why are you looking at me like this?"

In the sight of all the officials, the young emperor still had a smile on his face.

"When Jia Wen usurped power, none of you ever objected, right? If you are asked to investigate the remnants of Jia Wen's party, God knows when it will take..."

Saying this, the young emperor shook his head.

"Of course, I also know that you may have been coerced...so please rest assured, I will not wrongly accuse good people."

At this point, the young emperor paused.

"But we won't let those bad guys go."

As he spoke, the young emperor looked at Du Chengfeng on the horse.

"Fuck you, my love."
