At the same time.
The city gates of the Imperial City were brightly lit and crowded with people.
Thousands of people were blocking the entrance of the city gate.
Chen Yaojin was wearing his pajamas and shouted arrogantly from the doorway,
"Don't be afraid. Even the emperor had to give an explanation, right? What was there to be afraid of? Set up a tent to sleep here. If the officials wait here, I will say that I will sleep in the palace.”
The Chen family was a little scared. Everyone hugged their luggage and trembled under Chen Yaojin's instructions.
This was the Imperial City!
At this moment, the head of the imperial guards on the city gate tower also had a bitter expression on his face. In order not to cause a misunderstanding, he did not even dare to run over empty-handed.
"State Duke Lu…please don't be like this. If they angered the officials later, no one would look good.”
Chen Yaojin blew his beard and glared at him. I didn't do anything wrong. I'm not in the wrong. I'm the victim. Can't I, the victim, ask the government for an explanation? Confucius once said that a gentleman who breaks the law is the same as a commoner. Then I don't care. I don't care so much about you…"
The head of the Imperial Army didn't know whether to laugh or cry." But your request is too much. Since ancient times, who dares to say that they want to live in the Imperial Palace? Aren't you looking for trouble…"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuchi Jingde also walked over in his pajamas. He blew at his beard and glared as he cursed angrily,
"What's wrong? We are the victims, and we have the right. We're right, but we can't make requests? The public security in Chang 'an is terrible. Humph, this is the worst city I've ever seen. Today, I want the Emperor to give us an explanation. Sob, sob, sob, we've toiled our entire lives to help the Emperor build the Great Tang's golden age. We've grown old, but we've been unable to live a peaceful life. What kind of sin is this?"
"Duke of E, please don't cry, please don't cry." Those who don't know better might think that I bullied you…"
"It's you. You tacitly agreed to the Fourth Prince's crime, so you're guilty of the same crime. It's you."
"I…I didn't!"
"Humph!"
"We're not leaving."
"I'm not leaving!"
How could the head of the Imperial Army be a match for these two old troublemakers? After a few words, he sighed and did not dare to say anything else. He was afraid of getting himself into trouble.
At this moment, the city gate opened and a eunuch shouted,"
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
All the Imperial Army soldiers lowered their heads and cupped their fists.
"Guan family!"
Chen Yaojin and Yuchi Gong stopped making a scene and obediently cupped their fists.
"Guan family."
The dragon carriage came out.
The curtain of the dragon carriage was lifted, and Li Shiming looked at the thousands of people sitting on the ground like refugees with a gloomy face.
Silence!
Dead silence.
Li Shi Min looked at everyone.
No one present dared to take a deep breath.
Including Chen Yaojin and Yuchi Gong, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look up.
Silence for 1 second, 2 seconds, 5 seconds…1 minute. A whole minute passed.
Li Shi Min suddenly shouted,
"Chen Zhijie! Yuchi Gong!"
"How dare you!"
Chen Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde were so frightened that they trembled. They hurriedly knelt down and did not dare to speak.
Seeing the two of them as quiet as cicadas in winter, Li Shiming's eyes flashed with a hint of pride. Hmph, let you two old things force him to abdicate? I'll take the upper hand first and seize the initiative. No matter what happens, I'll see if you still dare to make excessive demands.
Li Shi Min was not stupid.
Of course, he knew that if nothing serious had happened to these two people, they would not have come to cause trouble in the middle of the night.
He knew that something must have happened. But before something happened, shouldn't he first clear his name?
First, a villain came to complain, and then he would make a countercharge. Don't worry about you, you'll hit him first. If he had the upper hand, he wouldn't be so passive when dealing with things…
Li Shiming was always being criticized in court, so he had a lot of experience in this kind of situation. Small scene.
Empress Zhangsun was naturally familiar with Li Er's posturing routine. She immediately cooperated and said,
"Duke Lu, Duke E, you are simply lawless and ignorant. Even if something big had happened, they couldn't make a scene like this…Hurry up and apologize to the officials!”
Empress Zhangsun was also good at making false accusations. Who cares? Let the two apologize first and prove that Chen Yaojin and the other two were in the wrong first. If they were in a passive state, things would naturally be easier to resolve.
Li Shimin almost laughed out loud when he heard the Empress's words.
However, his happiness did not last long…
Chen Yaojin wailed,"
"What did this lowly subject do wrong? Wuwuwu, official, you have to stand up for me.”
Li Shi Min: "???"
How dare you not admit your mistake? Looks like you must let me clean up today!
Li Shiming thought…
