Chapter 1943 The Expected Court Meeting!
"Involving the Holy Emperor and Eunuch Gao, the matter is not trivial. This is why I asked the prince to block the news. The fewer people who know about this matter, the better."
King Song paused, looked at Wang Chong and said.
"No matter what the truth is, if the Holy Emperor comes to court again, everything will become clear!"
Prince Li Heng, King Song and others left quickly, but in the main hall, Wang Chong fell into deep thought.
"Xu Keyi contacted Bian Lingcheng and asked him to find out the whereabouts of Eunuch Gao as soon as possible!"
The current relationship between the East Palace and Wang Chong, including the fact that Wang Chong and Yang Zhao became sworn brothers, was almost unknown to everyone in the entire court after Dading.
On the contrary, as the prison general, Bian Lingcheng, not many people have noticed yet.
Eunuch Gao, Li Jingzhong, Bian Lingcheng, and Yang Zhao, who had a wide circle of friends and was not an eunuch, were the four most powerful people in the palace who were well-informed and possessed great magical powers.
In the entire palace, I am afraid that no news can be hidden from these four people at the same time.
Now that Eunuch Gao is missing, if the other three people can't find out the news, I'm afraid no one will be able to find out Eunuch Gao's whereabouts.
"yes!"
Xu Keyi quickly turned around and left after receiving the order.
…
Time flies, and several days pass in the blink of an eye. The news that the Holy Emperor will come to court again comes much sooner than everyone imagined. Before Bian Lingcheng could find out the news about Eunuch Gao, Wang Chong had already received the news about the morning meeting.
"Prepare court clothes for me!"
The moment he received the news in the early morning, Wang Chong's eyes flashed and he immediately issued an order to prepare to go to court.
Although Wang Chong has withdrawn from the court, as the general who protects the country, the foreign king of the Tang Dynasty, and the protector of the Nine Provinces, plus holding the imperial dragon mace, Wang Chong has the qualifications to come in and out at any time and participate in court meetings.
Wang Chong put on a golden auspicious cloud robe, a purple gold jade crown, rode a bronze python carriage, and quickly headed towards the palace.
By the time Wang Chong arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, it was already crowded with civil and military ministers.
The news of the emperor's court had already caused great disturbances in the government and the public. Almost everyone who could participate in the court meeting participated. Even many old ministers who were idle at home hurriedly put on court clothes and entered the main hall.
Many ministers were whispering and discussing, and many censors were gearing up. They had been waiting for this day for a long time.
On the other side, Wang Chong and King Song stood side by side, equally full of expectations. Just like King Song said, as long as the Holy Emperor appears, everything will be clear.
"The Holy Emperor has arrived!"
In just a moment, with the sound of the quiet whip, in the eyes of everyone, a number of palace maids and eunuchs, including the emperor's guards, filed in from the side hall.
And just behind, a familiar figure, wearing a dragon robe, majestic and noble, with a dragon's gaze and a tiger's gaze, slowly stepped out.
In an instant, there seemed to be an invisible force pressing down, and the entire hall fell into silence.
Despite the recent "turbulence" and so many things that have happened, as the True Dragon Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the Holy Emperor still has the supreme status in everyone's hearts.
However, just as everyone's eyes were focused on the Holy Emperor, Wang Chong passed by a figure behind him, and his body shook suddenly.
"Eunuch Gao!"
Wang Chong whispered in his heart,
The corners of his eyes twitched sharply.
A few days ago, Wang Chong, King Song, and Prince Li Heng were still discussing the whereabouts of Eunuch Gao and how to find him. Wang Chong even contacted Bian Lingcheng. In their hearts, everyone thought that it might cost a fortune. It takes a lot of effort to find him.
However, Wang Chong never expected that the "missing" Eunuch Gao would actually appear in front of everyone again in this way.
Wang Chong subconsciously glanced at King Song on the left. At that moment, Wang Chong could see clearly. King Song opened his eyes wide and was obviously as surprised as him.
In the main hall, Eunuch Gao was dressed in cloud-patterned brocade clothes, following behind the Holy Emperor. His expression was as usual, and there was nothing unusual about him.
But Wang Chong observed carefully. Compared with what he remembered, Eunuch Gao's face was no longer as rosy as before. On the contrary, it looked slightly pale. Moreover, his originally chubby figure like Maitreya Buddha also seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Her eyes, which were always smiling, became much more obscure and dull.
At that moment, Wang Chong frowned slightly, and a trace of gloom passed between his brows.
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
At this time, a loud voice came into his ears. It turned out that the Holy Emperor was sitting down. In the main hall, all the civil and military officials bowed and saluted. Wang Chong came to his senses and bowed too.
"If you have any business, please report it early. If there is no business, please leave the court!"
At this moment, an eunuch in brocade clothes waved his fly whisk, stepped forward, and sang loudly, but he was not Eunuch Gao, but another thirty-four-year-old palace eunuch whom Wang Chong had no impression of at all.
"Your Majesty, I have my own report. Throughout the dynasties, it is the king's duty to go to court and handle government affairs! Your Majesty has not been out for seven days in a row and has no orders. It is unprecedented in history. This matter must not happen!"
"I want to impeach Your Majesty for his debauchery and lust. The draft has affected all the people in the world. This is what a foolish king did!"
"The humble minister wants to impeach your majesty and carry out extensive construction and palace construction! The king is loved by the dragon spirit and is a model for the world. Every move he makes will arouse the attention and imitation of the people. Your majesty's construction of the palace is a revival of arrogance and extravagance, which is definitely not a good thing for the world. What's more, in the imperial city, all the palaces are already in place, so why do we still need to build the Taiping Tower? Your Majesty, please take back the order!"
"Wei Chen wants to impeach..."
"Weak ministers want to be impeached!"
…
The Holy Emperor did not go to court, and a group of officials and censors had been holding back for nearly ten days. At this time, they finally "caught" the opportunity. How could they let this opportunity go? Before other ministers could start, all the censors were excited, and one by one they Holding the wat board in hand, they walked out of the train almost immediately, and everyone began to impeach in high spirits.
The sounds came and went, one after another!
Wang Chong stood in the train without saying a word.
The situation in front of him was already within his expectation, but compared to the events in the court, Wang Chong was more concerned about the Holy Emperor himself.
Everything arises from the Holy Emperor, and this is the root of everything.
Wang Chong looked up and observed carefully.
When the ministers were excited and began to play, the Holy Emperor, dressed in dragon robes, sat on top of the gorgeous and noble Nine Dragon Throne, motionless.
His expression was calm and unwavering. He listened to the fierce impeachment by the officials in the palace, and there was no wave on his face, as if nothing in this world could penetrate his state of mind.
This was not the first time Wang Chong saw the Holy Emperor, but the feeling he gave Wang Chong... was very different from before.
Although he was still as majestic and noble as a god overlooking the world, for Wang Chong, he clearly felt a completely different aura from the Holy Emperor.
The feeling was like turbid mud rising up in the clear spring water, and like many dead leaves scattered in the breeze. To a certain extent, it looked the same on the surface, but Wang Chong's feeling It's like another person.
"What exactly is going on?"
Wang Chong could no longer hear the sounds in the court. His expression was calm, but there were already waves in his heart.
Buzz!
The next moment, Wang Chong thought, the light in his eyes changed, and he instantly skipped the "origin of Qi" and directly displayed the real world.
Everything in the main hall was as usual, but in Wang Chong's eyes, earth-shaking changes had occurred in an instant.
All the scenery and colors receded, leaving only the most realistic appearance of the world in Wang Chong's eyes.
Without any hesitation, Wang Chong's attention instantly focused on the Holy Emperor on the Nine Dragons throne.
But the next moment——
"boom!"
Before Wang Chong could clearly see the "real" body of the Holy Emperor, Wang Chong felt as if he had hit a huge barrier. His whole body was shaken, and his mind suddenly became dizzy.
Not only that, Wang Chong's real world can return to its origins, through all the illusions to the essence. No matter how huge the ability is, there is nothing to hide in front of Wang Chong. Even if he is as powerful as the God of Heaven, he was still in front of Wang Chong. After seeing through Xingzang, he finally ran away in confusion.
But when Wang Chong looked at the Holy Emperor in the real world, he immediately received a strong backlash. Wang Chong's eyes were also in chaos, and his real world abilities were completely ineffective.
For the first time, the real world didn't play out as it should.
"!!!"
At this moment, Wang Chong's heart was filled with waves.
The real world comes from the ability of the Stone of Destiny, not a real attack. Normally, it should not be disturbed at all, but this time it failed with Wang Chong's strength.
The black and white real world in his eyes quickly faded away, and the list of hundreds of officials in the Hall of Supreme Harmony appeared in Wang Chong's field of vision again.
And when he opened his eyes, Wang Chong saw the Holy Emperor on the Nine Dragons throne.
Before, the Holy Emperor remained motionless while facing the ministers, but at this moment, he looked at himself at some point. Those eyes, staring at Wang Chong, seemed to have seen through all the secrets in Wang Chong, making Wang Chong feel a sense of The feeling of having nothing to hide.
"Your Majesty! I beg your Majesty to take back your order!"
At this moment, a loud, loud voice suddenly came from Xie Mo.
Deng Chang, the old censor, knelt down on the ground holding a wat tablet.
This sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention, and above the main hall, the Holy Emperor glanced at Wang Chong one last time, with a profound look in his eyes, and quickly turned his head to look at the old censor.
"I know!"
The Holy Emperor's voice sounded loud and clear in the hall.
"Everything regarding the Taiping Tower remains as usual. All expenses will be paid out of the internal treasury. As for court affairs and draft matters, they will be decided by the Prime Minister and the Grand Master together!"
"Military affairs will be decided by the King of Foreign Land, the King of Song, and the Minister of War, Zhangchou Jianqiong!"
"The matter of the draft will be put aside for the time being and will be discussed later!"
As soon as the Holy Emperor's voice fell, he flicked his sleeves, stood up immediately, and left.
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
…
In the main hall, everyone was stunned. No one expected that the Holy Emperor would be so straightforward. The Holy Emperor did not agree to any matters such as the strike, the draft, and the Taiping Tower. Moreover, after promulgating the resolution, he stood up and left without giving anyone a chance to defend or redeem himself.
