"Xiao Hua, send someone to give He Shen some eye drops so that he can start clearing the canal as soon as possible and die early.”
Gu Fengming looked at Yu Huatian. Little Flower was the nickname he gave Yu Huatian. After all, Yu Huatian's appearance was worthy of the name of the West Yard's flower. Therefore, calling him Little Flower was Gu Fengming's bad taste.
"Yes, this subordinate understands!"
Yu Huatian immediately nodded when he heard this.
"You may leave!"
"Yes, sir!"
In the blink of an eye, Yu Huatian left the room.
"I, the Commander of the Jinyiwei, Shen Lian, requests an audience with Your Highness!”
As soon as Yu Huatian left, Shen Lian appeared outside the door and asked to meet Gu Fengming.
"Come in!"
"Shen Lian greets Your Highness!"
"There's no need to be so formal. How was it last night?”
Gu Fengming looked at the other party and narrowed his eyes as he asked. Last night, Gu Fengming sent Shen Lian to bring along the Jinyiwei and Xi Chang to support Lu Bu. He was not sure if Lu Bu could deal with those people.
"Your Highness, that Lu Bu has taken control of the entire Qing Gang and renamed it the Great Ensemble. I have sent a few capable subordinates to follow him and help him manage the gang.”
"Oh, his speed is quite fast. Tell me, what do you think of this Lu Bu?”
"A valiant general, brave beyond compare.”
Shen Lian gave a simple evaluation. Upon hearing this evaluation, Gu Fengming's eyes flashed. This was already a very high evaluation. It seemed that Lu Bu's bravery yesterday had indeed left a deep impression on everyone.
"Alright, you may leave. Report to this king if there are any movements.”
"Yes, sir!"
"Your Highness!"
Gu Fengming went out. Outside, Chen Dao had been waiting for a long time. Gu Fengming nodded and brought Chen Dao to Gu Changge's bedroom.
"Imperial Uncle!"
"Let's go."
Gu Fengming saw Gu Changge and smiled. He stepped forward and held his hand. The two of them held hands and walked towards Taiji Palace under the morning light.
"If there's anything, then report. If there's nothing, then withdraw."
Gu Fengming was still sitting on the regent's throne, and Gu Changge was sitting on the dragon throne. The civil and military officials of the court stood in their respective positions.
"Minister of Rites, Jia Sidao, has a report.”
"Ministry of Rites?"
Gu Fengming's eyes flashed when he saw Jia Shidao.
"Correct!"
"Reporting to the Crown Prince, reporting to the King of Qin, the Ministry of Rites has received urgent memorials from all the vassal kings within 800 miles. The vassal kings wish to enter the capital to mourn for His Majesty and earnestly request the court's permission.”
"A memorial from a vassal king entering the capital?"
Gu Fengming's eyes flashed when he heard this. It was indeed about time. It had been a few days since Gu Longming's death. In ancient times, transportation was inconvenient for a few days, but with the speed of 800 miles, it could be delivered in a few days.
In the Great Feng Dynasty, the various vassal kings were not allowed to leave their fiefs without the permission of the imperial court, much less enter the capital. Therefore, even if one wanted to enter the capital to mourn, they had to receive the imperial court's permission. It was obvious that Gu Fengming's brothers and uncles could no longer hold back their restless hearts and wanted to enter the capital as soon as possible.
It was likely that they were not only here to mourn, but also to covet the throne. They were both surnamed Gu and were of the royal family. Who would be willing to see the two children sit on the supreme throne?
"Dear ministers, what do you think?”
Looking down, Gu Fengming asked the officials, wanting to see their reactions.
"I think we should reject the requests of the vassal kings. With the death of His Majesty, the hearts of the people in the world were in turmoil. This was the time when problems were most likely to occur in the various regions. It was reasonable to let the various vassal kings maintain order in their fiefs to prevent chaos in their territories.”
Wang Mang was the first to stand up and object. He didn't want to see those vassal kings. Gu Fengming understood the thoughts of these vassal kings, and so did they. The two children were easy to control. If these vassal kings succeeded, it would be terrible. Naturally, they did not want to see them.
"I agree. We should let the vassal kings stay in their fiefs and not enter the capital.”
"I also agree!"
"We agree!"
On this matter, the few powerful ministers clearly had the same opinion. It was easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. Now that Gu Fengming was in charge, everyone only treated him as a nine-year-old child. What if those vassal kings refused to leave? It was better to avoid trouble. No one wanted to see those vassal kings seize power.
"None of you want to see this king's uncles and brothers!”
Gu Fengming's eyes flashed. He was secretly happy that he had understood the thoughts of these people.
However, the more these people behaved like this, the more Gu Fengming would not let them have their way.
"This, isn't this inappropriate?"
"It is human nature for the vassal kings to come to mourn the death of Imperial Brother. If I don't allow it, wouldn't it make my brothers and uncles feel disappointed and make these vassal kings suspicious? After all, it's already very strange for me to be regent. It's hard to guarantee that these vassal kings won't be suspicious. If something happens, it might be inappropriate.”
"Moreover, mother misses this king's brothers and uncles very much and wants to see them. If I don't allow them to enter the capital, mother will probably be very angry.”
Gu Fengming looked at everyone and said slowly.
Everyone looked at each other. The Empress Dowager hasn't made any moves these few days. The Imperial Palace is under your control, so why are you afraid of the Empress Dowager?
"You're still a child after all. You don't understand the stakes. If these vassal kings enter the capital, what will happen to you, the regent?”
"Foolish, you're simply letting a wolf into the house. You brat, I'm afraid you've lived enough!”
"I thought he was some kind of monstrous prodigy, but it turns out that he's still a child.”
However, the few powerful ministers were different. They all cursed in their hearts, feeling that Gu Fengming's words were digging his own grave.
"Does Your Highness want to see those uncles and uncles?”
Gu Fengming looked at Gu Changge and winked at him.
It was unknown if Gu Fengming's hint was effective, or if Gu Changge really wanted to see those vassal kings, but he actually nodded.
"I want to!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the officials changed again, and they looked at each other.
"Since the Crown Prince has said so, then this matter is settled.”
"Jia Shidao!"
"Your subject is here."
"Send a message back to the various vassal kings. Tell them that the imperial court allows them to enter the capital to mourn, but they are only allowed to bring a hundred personal guards. They are not allowed to disturb the people and the government along the way.”
"Um…"
Jia Shidao didn't answer, but looked at Wang Mang.
Seeing this, Gu Fengming's eyes turned cold.
"What? Didn't you hear what I said?”
"This subject has received the decree!"
Seeing the dissatisfaction in Gu Fengming's voice and Wang Mang's nod, Jia Shidao finally nodded.
