When we get to Zhuque Gate, it's about a quarter of an hour before Chenshi.
Lu Fang saw more than a dozen figures.
People like Su Yu, Su Mo, Dong Jiayan, and Han Qu are among them.
Obviously they were all people that Su Yu had already agreed with.
This guy deserves to be the eldest grandson of Su Shi, and he deserves to have been hanging around at the foot of the Imperial City for so many years. This kind of appeal is really unmatched.
Lu Fang was still somewhat impressed.
"Viscount Lu!"
Seeing Lu Fang arriving, Su Yu took the lead in saying hello.
The person calling was Lu Zijue.
Although this title was not high, it still made others look at Lu Fang.
They are all popular contestants in this year's imperial examination, or are great talents in Zhulu Academy. However, none of them have been knighted.
Of course, the name Lu Fang is already famous in Kyoto.
"Master Lu."
"..."
Su Mo and others also greeted Lu Fang, and those who didn't know him also nodded to Lu Fang.
Lu Fang walked closer and returned the greeting with his hands in hand.
It could be seen that these people were a little nervous on their faces, especially Su Yu.
After all, he and Lu Fang are the protagonists in this matter. When the time comes, they are also the ones most likely to bear Liang Hanmin's wrath.
Immediately afterwards, about twenty more people came.
Some came alone.
There are also people who come in groups, such as several noble disciples led by Yin Yutang.
This was all done by Fan Boyian and Zhai Zhanpeng through their connections.
But they didn't call too many people, just a few.
But there are nearly forty people in total, and all of them are either talented or have backgrounds. It can be said that the camp is amazing.
Lu Fang had to sigh, Liang Siqi's charm was really amazing. Even if some of these people came to help, the vast majority of them really admired her.
Many people make you brave.
After the initial greetings, the nervousness of the young people was reduced a lot, and they gradually became more energetic.
Together they went to the palace to meet the emperor and asked the emperor to take back the imperial edict. Regardless of whether they succeeded or not, they would definitely become famous in Kyoto.
In the past, few people had done such a thing.
The Qianniu guards guarding the Suzaku Gate had puzzled faces, not knowing what these young men wanted to do.
The hour has arrived.
A big bell rang in the palace.
Su Yu took the lead and walked towards the guards.
Without saying anything, he led the people directly into the Zhuque Gate.
These guards didn't dare to stop him.
Not to mention Su Yu, they also knew many of the young people present. Especially Yin Yutang and other distinguished disciples.
Moreover, the Suzaku Gate was originally just the outermost gate of the palace and was not heavily guarded. In other words, those with unfamiliar faces could not enter easily.
Follow the towering palace wall to Xuandemen.
Here, even if Su Yu, Yin Yutang and others are here, they can't go in.
Even if Yin Yutang, who was already working as an errand in the palace, wanted to enter, he had to do so during his errand time, and he had to show his badge to prove his identity.
Because behind Xuande Gate is the real palace.
Someone once said that the only man who can live in Xuandemen for a long time is the current emperor.
Although there is some moisture in this statement, it is not much.
Except for Liang Hanmin, the East Palace of Prince Liang Xu is also behind Xuandemen. Others, even the yamen such as Shangshu Province and Zhongshu Province, as well as Wangsunyuan where the princes and princesses live, etc., are also outside Xuandemen.
.
There are many men in Xuandemen, but Liang Hanmin and Liang Xu are the only ones in charge.
Seeing Su Yu, Lu Fang and other such a large group of people coming over, the guards guarding Xuande Gate couldn't help but be a little surprised. Then they quietly blocked the door.
The captain of the guard on duty knew Yin Yutang and asked with a smile: "Young Master, what are you doing?"
Yin Yutang said nothing and looked at Su Yu.
He was able to come over to help him because he owed Lu Fang a favor. He didn't want to be the first to do this.
Su Yu secretly criticized Yin Yutang for being too cunning, and then he bit the bullet and said to the captain of the guard: "Please pass the message for us, we want to see your majesty."
The captain of the guard was a little confused, "Are you going to see your majesty?"
Strictly speaking, people like Su Yu were not qualified to meet Liang Hanmin without authorization and could only wait for Liang Hanmin's summons.
Even Yin Yutang, who works as an errand in the palace, is the same.
In Kyoto, the only people who can meet Liang Hanmin are those officials of fourth rank or above. As for whether to meet Liang Hanmin, it depends on Liang Hanmin's mood, even for the prince Liang Xu.
The captain of the guard came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "Master Su, this... you are putting me in a bit of a dilemma..."
Su Yu said: "I know we can't meet with His Majesty without authorization, but if we can communicate with each other, there will be no problem, right?"
The captain of the guard had something to say.
Su Yu said again: "If the emperor blames it, you can blame it on me."
These words made it difficult for the captain of the guard to refuse.
He doesn't have to sell Su Yu's face, but he has to sell Su Shi's face.
He scratched his head and said humbly: "Then I'll try to communicate, but if the emperor doesn't see you, you can't blame me."
"It's natural."
Su Yu said.
Whether Liang Hanmin sees them or not can be decided by the mere captain of the bodyguard.
The captain of the guard asked his soldiers to go in and report.
Su Yu and others waited outside.
It took two quarters of an hour for the words to come out.
"The emperor said he couldn't see you."
The guard who came out said.
The captain of the guard cast a helpless look at Su Yu helplessly.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Su Yu thanked him and then smiled bitterly at Lu Fang and others.
This result was actually what they expected.
The emperor was busy with many things, so it was normal for him not to see them. Not to mention, the emperor might have known what they wanted to see them for.
Immediately afterwards, from the south of Xuande Gate, many people suddenly came hurriedly on the avenue.
They are all prominent figures in the court.
The leader was an old man with a white beard reaching down to his chest. He had a majestic face with a Chinese character.
Following him was a burly man wearing armor and a fierce look on his face.
The eyes of Su Yu, Yin Yutang and others changed instantly.
Good guy!
The ones who came were the current minister She Su Shi, and Xuan Pinghou and other powerful ministers and nobles.
"Go back if you don't want to!"
As soon as they got closer, Su Shi shouted at Su Yu.
Marquis Xuanping also kicked Yin Yutang directly on the thigh.
But he didn't show any mercy.
The rest of the nobles or the children of powerful people did not get any favors either, and they were all punished or scolded by their elders.
Even the imperial examination students like Su Mo and Dong Jiayan, who had no elders serving as officials in Kyoto, could not help but shrink their necks.
Mother!
This battle has become a bit big!
The emperor's move to pull the trigger is really fatal!
Even people like Su Yu have been taught a lesson. If their elders knew about this, they would not be punished when they returned after the imperial examination results came out.
