At dawn, the ministers were outside the Duanmen gate and were waiting to attend court.

Li Tong stayed in the official residence of Luantai overnight, and now he joined the shift with the officials of Luantai.

Someone noticed this soon and couldn't help but whisper. They had various daily concerns and did not communicate too much with the young king, but the young king's identity was here, so he would have more or less a concern. Today is just a regular court, and he is not aware of it. Why did the young king appear here and join the class with the officials of Luantai?

Li Tong was actually a little helpless. After working behind the scenes for a long time, he was not used to being so concerned. However, after today, it was difficult for him to not attract attention. Seeing the officials evasively and looking at his gaze, his mood was a bit complicated.

He didn't know how many people were present who were truly interested in Li Tang. The way he entered the situation would definitely make some people feel unacceptable. But if you want to make a living in such a world, it would be so easy to not get dirty.

Only by living can one have a future. No matter how innocent the fish on the chopping board is, it is just a meal on the plate. He is not willing to be slaughtered by others, and he is not a fish or a knife or a knife. If he makes such a choice, he will inevitably be criticized by others. Li Tong still has this kind of awareness.

When he entered the front line, these tyrants had already heard more or less about what happened last night, and no longer looked at him like before, either smiling and nodding, or watching coldly.

However, the attention Li Tong attracted did not last long, because the arrival of another minister was shocked by the officials present, that was Yang Zhirou, who served as the chief of the New Ping Road marching.

Compared with before sending troops, Yang Zhirou looked thinner and haggard, with a dusty face, and a faint feeling of fatigue between her eyebrows and eyes. But the mental state of her person is obviously not within the scope of everyone's concern. The reason why everyone changed color is that Yang Zhirou, the marching chief, has arrived in Shendu and has made public appearance to attend the court meeting. Is it still far from the date of return of the army that attacked the Turks in the north?

Seeing Yang Zhirou's arrival, Li Tong was slightly surprised, and then realized that if he had not been summoned yesterday, his grandmother would have been unable to help breaking the deadlock and starting a massacre.

Yang Zhirou's return means that Xue Huaiyi's army is near, and Wu Zetian has always been the best bluff.

Those soldiers on long-distance expeditions themselves cannot directly join the ease of the situation in Shendu, and Wu Zetian may choose to show his fearlessness through bloody killings. The bet is that those who provoke the situation in Shendu dare not really stand at the front desk and launch an armed riot.

As for now, with an excellent propaganda method like the Buddha's Talk of the Treasure Rain Sutra, the subsequent situation may continue in a relatively stable manner. After all, Wu Zetian himself has to bear considerable political risks in every killing.

Of course, Yang Zhirou's early return cannot be said to be completely meaningless. If there was no expeditionary army that could be relied on, Wu Zetian would not have given up on Qiu Shenli so easily.

Or in other words, Wu Zetian is urgently in need of a statement to stabilize the morale of the army that is about to return to the capital, so that these expeditionary troops will not be affected by the current situation in Shendu.

What Li Tong provided was an incremental change, and there were too many hidden dangers when he re-activated Qiu Shenjie. Therefore, when Li Tong expressed his bluntly that he wanted to get rid of Qiu Shenjie's thoughts, his grandmother would make such a straightforward decision.

Thinking of this, Li Tong couldn't help but sigh again. Sometimes people's thinking cannot be so clear. He was a little moved by his grandmother's actions last night, thinking that it might be a bit of emotional factor for being close to each other. As a result, when he turned to see Yang Zhirou, he realized that it was a smart calculation.

The music of the Lu Book sounded, and the ministers came to the hall. Compared with the Wangshuo court, the daily court meeting was not that large. Only officials with fifth rank or above in various departments in Beijing and worship officials in Taiwan Province. The so-called worship officials are men, servants and censors. More extensive worship officials also include officials in the palace, Lintai and school hall.

Today's court meeting was arranged in Renshou Hall, which was closer to the forbidden area. When all the officials arrived here, it was already dawn.

When the ritual officials were singing their titles, another small episode happened. The ritual officials directly announced in the hall that the King of Hedong Li Shouyi was renamed Li Baoyu, which inevitably brought Li Tong the attention of the officials present.

Li Tong was given a resignation when he was sent to thank him. Seeing the eyes of the ministers like searchlights, Wu Sansi looked even more jealous when he looked at him, which made him feel even sweeter. This feeling of being with the leader would be really good if he didn't impose moral judgments.

After returning to the rank with the imperial edict, Li Tong looked at Wu Sansi provocatively: Look, what can you do, why don’t you let your aunt change your name? Sansi, what’s Sansi? Why don’t you call Wu Chengzu or Wu Chengzong?

However, when he saw Wu Sansi's official robe changed into the third-rank Shangshu again, his mood suddenly became less happy. He wanted to overtake the Wu family and become his grandmother's truly caring little cotton-padded jacket, but he still had a long way to go.

But he was not in a hurry, so he went wherever he was. After changing this name, as long as he didn't die in the past few years, basically no one could touch him. These rare years were also an excellent period for him to lay the foundation and do his career. In the future, Wu Sansi, the hanged ghost, glared at him casually and directly clenched the old boy's eyes!

The size of Renshou Hall is not as large as that of the Mingtang Hall. After Li Tong followed the palace with Ban, he was not too far from the imperial bed above. You can see Wu Zetian sitting upright on the imperial bed when you look up.

This look was inevitably a sigh again. Power is indeed a good thing that can make people youthful. Today, Wu Zetian's appearance was very different from when he met yesterday. His temples were combed together under the crown, and his eyes were casting their brilliance, and he regained his aggressive spirit.

As if he noticed Li Tong's look, Wu Zetian also looked down slightly in the hall and nodded to the grandson.

This little interaction naturally fell into the eyes of these people in the hall again. When he looked at the young king, his face looked very different. It seemed that this young king still had a lot of mystery when he entered the hall today!

The rituals of the Changgong were simpler. After the train of ministers was established, Wu Chengsi, the prime minister who was on duty in the Political Affairs Hall yesterday, took the lead and recited some memorials without expression.

Wu Chengsi naturally couldn't be happy. The original process should be that he, as the right prime minister of Wenchang, presided over the government affairs of the six ministries of the Secretariat, was the first major proposal since the establishment of the various subjects in October.

However, this proposal was temporarily pulled up by His Majesty the Emperor of God, and instead, he stuffed the Zuo Jinwu Guard General Qiu Shenji into the case and committed suicide in fear of crime in the imperial prison last night.

Although Wu Chengsi was in a state of silence, the court officials in the hall heard the news and were already making a big noise. Including several prime ministers who had already learned about this matter in advance, they were still somewhat surprised and suspicious.

Qiu Shenji is not very popular. The reason why his life and death caused such great confusion is naturally because he is the confidant of the God Emperor. Although there have been many rumors about Qiu Shenji in recent times, especially after he was imprisoned, there have been many calls for killing, but no conclusive news has been leaked.

But unexpectedly, when he heard the truly accurate news, the person who reflected the greatest will of the Southern Imperial Army had become a dead body!

Wu Zetian raised his hand and pressed him down. The discussion in the hall paused for a moment. Then she said, "Since I came to the court, the polite and the wise and the poor have never dared to slack off. You and others have offered their talents, but they are still afraid that their position is insufficient. The so-called polite and scholars are thirsty, and they only hope that the king and the ministers can complement each other and do not let our country down. Qiu has been jokingly with the title of the country since he went abroad, and his family style is not beautiful and he was laughed at by the elites. I value his loyalty and courage, and he slightly respect his safety and danger of the capital and the houses. The courtesy is more generous than that of the Class A. The thief does not think about the country's kindness, and he tries his laws lightly. I am just a matter of my kindness and rules. I am just a title, a sword, and what people take. You should observe it yourself!"

Hearing this emotional declaration, the people in the hall were speechless for a moment. After a while, Wu Chengsi continued to read out the following matters. Yang Zhirou, who had just returned to the capital, presented a map to the Divine Emperor on behalf of the Xinpingdao army, and made a plan to make a contribution.

Li Tongli was in the class and heard his grandmother's declaration of a high school breath, and he felt a lot of emotion. I also wanted to say such messy thoughts, so that even Qiu Shenji, a serious concern, was not much of a feeling of death. After all, people still have to look forward, and it will pass after it, and it is not worth remembering.

There are many people participating in the dynasty meeting and time constraints. Many things are not specific, probably similar to the briefings of major institutions in later generations, allowing these officials to understand the general principles and routes in a timely manner.

If everything is really put in the court to discuss, these officials will no longer have to do anything else, just stand here for a meeting from white to black.

The court meeting lasted for nearly two hours, but this is because it has been a real troublesome recently and is not at peace inside and outside.

When Li Tong was truly involved in the court meeting of this kind of business, listening to the brief description of major events, he could not help but feel a little indifferent to "taking all things as straw dogs". It was not that people became arrogant, but because there were too many big facts and many things listed here, which was really just like this.

For example, Qiu Shenji's death and a general of the Southern Ya who died in a bad life, this should be a big deal no matter what. However, it only caused a brief surprise to the ministers, and then their energy was diverted from other events.

The most important events at the moment are the triumphant success of Xue Huaiyi's army, the second is the handling of defeat in the Western Expedition, and the third is the issue of relief for the Taizhou earthquake. The first thing is nothing to say, and even Wu Zetian himself is embarrassed to brag about this kind of water skills.

The second thing was another unexpected arrangement, that is, the Qiuguan Minister Zhou Xing was dismissed as the censor and immediately went to Hexi to escort the commoner Wei Wei Zhizhui Gui Luo.

After hearing this news, the ministers were even more excited than hearing the death of Qiu Shenji. Zhou Xing, a guy, was punished countless wrongs and countless people framed by him. The degree of hatred for people far exceeds that of Qiu Shenji. After all, the general of Qiu Shenji South Yai will not face these ordinary court officials even if he does evil.

Now Zhou Xing, a evil man with blood in his hands, has been sent out, which has also made many people feel excited and hoped that Zhou Xing will never return.

Seeing the ministers like this, Li Tong was also happy. He was not sure whether Zhou Xing's release this time had any direct relationship with his previous operations. If so, he could talk to comfort him. In addition to destroying his ancestral property and pleasing his grandmother, he might also indirectly save many lives.

Regarding the Taizhou earthquake, the Zhengshitang memorial stated that it was after the Taizhou mountain surge, and many scriptures were found, and the records were suspected to be Sanskrit scriptures. Some officials asked the court to send the great master and the scholars of the school to verify it quickly.
