The night was like water.
In the Imperial Censorate's courtyard, the 500 imperial guards stood uneasily in the courtyard, looking in the direction of the flickering candlelight. Lin Feng couldn't help but look at Li He, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and said worriedly,"Censor Li, what does Censor Du mean by this?”
"I don't know either."
Li He sighed. On Chang 'an Street, they had asked Du He for help, but Du He didn't say anything. Instead, she took them back to the Imperial Censorate and locked herself in the room. An hour had passed, but he still hadn't come out.
"Does Imperial Censor Du not want to interfere?"
" That's Wei Yuan, after all." Tang Ze said in a low voice with a disappointed expression." He has the protection of his father, Wei Liang, and the Imperial Censor, Wei Zheng. As long as he's an official in the court, he won't interfere in this matter."”
"If it were anyone else, I would definitely believe that they did not want to interfere in this matter. However, Imperial Censor Du is different. He is not that kind of person. Let me take myself as an example. At that time, I was beaten up by the princess. According to others, I would definitely swallow my anger. Moreover, Imperial Censor Du was not injured at that time.”
Li He looked at him and pursed his lips." In the end, it was Imperial Censor Du who dragged me to the Imperial Palace to question the Empress. According to ordinary people's thinking, this would definitely not have succeeded. But what was the result? Not only did Imperial Censor Du successfully convince the Empress, but he also asked the Emperor to fast for another day to reflect on himself. Would such a person be afraid of a mere Wei Yuan? Moreover, our Imperial Censor Du has always had a grudge with the Imperial Censor. With our lord's vengeful personality, I don't believe that he won't seize this opportunity to kick Wei Zheng's nose!”
Suddenly, one of the imperial guards asked,""Isn't our Imperial Censor Du magnanimous?”
Swoosh--
In an instant, everyone looked at him strangely.
Li He looked at him meaningfully.""Are you living in a dream?"
The Imperial Guard soldier's face flushed red. As he was looking for words to refute, the door creaked open, and Du He, who was dressed in a censor's uniform, walked out.
"Li He, bring 30 men in.”
Du He waved at Li He. After Li He brought his men over, he pointed to the fifty open black iron boxes in the room and said,
"Pass these out. In fifteen minutes, this censor wants to see everyone wearing a crown, a robe, and a saber!”
Li He stared at the chest full of robes, crowns, and sabers with his eyes wide open. He stuttered,""Censor Du, where did these things come from? I don't remember the Imperial Censorate having such things.”
"His Majesty just sent it over."
Du He casually replied perfunctorily. Seeing Li He's expression as if he had seen a ghost, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. If I say that I conjured this thing, you have to believe me. He glared at him and said,"Why are you asking so much? Go and do your business!”
"Yes!"
Li He hurriedly bowed and replied.
In less than 15 minutes, all 500 soldiers of the Imperial Guard had put on their crowns with the pattern of Xie Zhi, and their robes with the pattern of a bloody mouth of Xie Zhi. At their waists, they wore Tang sabers with snow-white sheaths and pitch-black blades.
After being fully armed, the entire aura of the imperial guards changed drastically.
Du He looked at the soldiers in front of her with satisfaction. If the five hundred imperial guards were like a piece of scrap iron that had not been beaten before, now that they were wearing robes, wearing crowns, and carrying swords, they were like an unsheathed sharp blade.
"This is the Xie Zhi crown, the censor uniform, and the imperial knife.”
Du He looked at the people who were looking at her with joy and shock. She pointed to the jade plate hanging on the other side of their sabers and said in a calm tone,
"This jade token has the words 'Imperial Guard' written on the front and the words 'Imperial Censorate' written on the back. It's a symbol of your status and also your authority to enforce the law!”
"Back at the Golden Guards camp, someone asked me what the Imperial Guards do.”
Du He stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly,
"The Imperial Guards don't actually have much ability. They are used to monitor the officials and seek justice for the people. Remember this sentence in your minds. Wear a crown to seek justice, and wash your clothes for the public. Everything you do must be worthy of the crown on your neck, the clothes on your body, and the knife in your hands!”
"Imperial Censor Du!"
At this moment, Tang Ze couldn't hold it in anymore. He gritted his teeth and walked out of the queue. He knelt on one knee and shouted,"I want to know, if the general of the Golden Guards breaks the law, can Imperial Censor Du do anything?”
Everyone looked at Du He hopefully.
They wanted to know what the imperial guards did, but they also wanted to know if Du He would care about Tang Ze's matter!
"Yes, why not?"
A gentle smile appeared on Du He's face, but her tone was extremely cold: " As long as there is a grievance in Chang 'an, the imperial guards must take care of it. I can report it to His Majesty and be innocent. You are also innocent if you report it to me. Remember, the imperial guards have the right to investigate. No matter who it is, the imperial guards can arrest the offender!!”
As she spoke, Du He's eyes turned cold as she spat out,"If anyone dares to obstruct you in the process of capturing them, you can kill them!!”
