The 500 imperial guards endured their injuries and cupped their fists at Du He. Then, a few of the less injured imperial guards entered the hall of the Supreme Court and dragged Wei Yuan and Wei Liang out of the hall.
"Lin Feng, escort Censor Li back.”
Du He glanced at Li He. He was still unconscious, but the injuries on his back had already healed and he was fine.
"Imperial Censor Du, Imperial Censor Li's injuries…"
Lin Feng looked at the crack on Li He's back in shock. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. However, when he checked Li He's breathing and pulse, he found that he was stable and did not seem to be seriously injured at all. His eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Du He.
Du He waved her hand and did not explain.
Lin Feng tactfully didn't ask any more questions, but his impression of Du He had increased by several levels. He cupped his fists and left with Li He on his back.
"Nephew, this matter isn't over yet."
Just as Du He was about to leave, a palm suddenly patted his shoulder.
Cheng Yaojin gave him a mysterious smile and took out a golden imperial edict from his pocket. He stuffed it into his pocket and said,"This is the imperial edict from His Majesty.”
Du He took a look and raised her eyebrows." That's not right. This isn't the imperial edict I asked Tang Ze to bring to you. Where did you hide it?"”
"Hiding the imperial edict is treasonous and heinous. You will be beheaded!”
Cheng Yaojin's face darkened and he said in a bad mood,""Before Shu Bao and I came, we went to the palace to meet the emperor and asked for a new imperial edict for you!”
"Do you think we weren't prepared when we found out that you trespassed into the Supreme Court?”
Qin Qiong crossed her shoulders behind her back and sneered,""Otherwise, how could we have charged into the Supreme Court?”
"Do you know what His Majesty said when we told him that you went to the Supreme Court to arrest him?”
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but laugh.
"His Majesty did not say anything. He only waved his brush and ink and personally wrote a few words on the imperial edict. Then, he used the imperial seal to directly seal it and asked us to send it over.”
Du He replied with an 'oh' and flipped it open to take a look at the words written on the imperial edict.
Those who obstruct the governor's guards can be killed.
Du He stared at the words written by Li Er with a burning gaze.
Although the number of words written on the imperial edict was small, each word was as heavy as a thousand pounds. Just ten words made Du He realize that Li Er's attitude towards the imperial guards was clearly the same as what she thought.
"Nephew, what is written on the imperial edict?”
Cheng Yaojin scratched his ears and cheeks.”
"Don't tell anyone."
Du He reminded them and showed them the imperial edict.
The two of them only took a glance and could not help but be dumbfounded. They looked at each other and their expressions immediately became much more solemn.
"Nephew!"
"What exactly do the imperial guards do?" Qin Qiong could not help but ask.”
"Of course it's to capture people."
Du He opened his palm and rolled his eyes."Could it be that the two uncles just pretended not to see what the imperial guards did just now?”
After saying that, he turned around and left the Supreme Court, leaving the two of them stunned on the spot.
————
Taiji Palace, Dew Hall.
Li Er was wearing a sleeping robe, looking down at the information that had been sent back.
The details of what happened in the Supreme Court were written on it.
The Imperial Censor Du He led the Imperial Censor Li He and 500 Imperial Guard soldiers to barge into the Dali Temple to capture Wei Yuan. The Dali Temple Minister Wei Liang obstructed him and used the excuse of trespassing into the Dali Temple to let the two Temple Deacons lead 1,000 guards to attack and kill him.
The imperial guards were outnumbered and killed instead of retreating. Yushitai and Dali Temple fought, and 300 people were killed or injured. No one died in the imperial guards. Li He carried a fatal knife for Du Censor and was seriously injured.
After that, Duke Lu Cheng Yaojin and Duke Yi Qin Qiong came to quell the conflict between the two divisions. Du He arrested Wei Yuan and Wei Liang and left the Supreme Court, imprisoning them in Yushitai Prison.
"Second Brother, why aren't you sleeping?"
At this moment, Empress Zhangsun's voice sounded from behind.
Li Er shook his head and said in a deep voice," This brat Du He is simply audacious. He actually barged into the Supreme Court and fought with the Supreme Court Deputy Wei. Hundreds of people were killed or injured. Guanyin Maid, do you know that such a sensational thing has never happened since the founding of the Great Tang!”
Empress Zhangsun continued to light the candle silently. She smiled and said softly,"
"In that case, Du He should have been arrested by Second Brother. Why did Second Brother write that inconceivable imperial edict? It was nothing more than Du He doing what Second Brother wanted to do. Second Brother would definitely be stopped by Wei Zheng's advice, but Du He was different. He was not afraid of Wei Zheng.”
"Is Zhen afraid of Wei Zheng?"
Li Er raised an eyebrow." I am not afraid of him, but I respect him. The current Great Tang needs such a direct official, but I have now discovered that Du He is not only a direct official, but also has a dull personality and dares to do anything. I am now beginning to hesitate whether the new Imperial Guards are a good thing or a bad thing.”
"Wearing a crown to seek justice, bathing only for the public.”
Empress Zhangsun repeated the words that she had said inadvertently when the palace attendants sent the information to him. She gently rubbed Li Er's Taiyang acupoint.
"This is what Du He said. This concubine thinks that a censor who can say these ten words must be someone with outstanding wisdom and courage. Moreover, didn't Du He also solve a difficult problem for Second Brother?”
"This matter is not simple, and it is contrary to my original plan.”
Li Er let out a long breath and rolled up the information in his hand with a solemn expression. He shouted out of the hall in a low voice,"Men!"
Creak--
The door of the Dew Palace suddenly opened. The old eunuch Wei Zhongxian walked in with a stooped back and bowed respectfully."This servant is here."
"Send my decree to Duke Lu and Duke Yi.”
Li Er's eyes shone brightly." Tell them to immediately increase their patrol around the Imperial Censorate. If anyone tries to trespass, capture them. If anyone dares to resist, kill them!"!”
"Yes!"
The old eunuch, Wei Zhongxian, responded with a heavy tone and retreated.
"Second brother, are you going to stand on Du He's side this time?" Empress Zhangsun said with a smile.”
"The Imperial Guards were newly established by Zhen. Du He's trespassing into the Supreme Court to capture people is also to establish prestige for the Imperial Guards.”
Li Er said with a calm expression," So I will definitely stand on Du He's side and shelter him from the wind and rain. I hope he won't disappoint me. I really want to know why he did this in the end!”
