Fan Li couldn't help but greet him again: "My lord, Fan Li, the envoy of Xiayue Kingdom..."
"Go away! Who cares about you!"
No matter who it was, no one paid attention to what he meant.
The senior officials who used to laugh and talk at length and exchange cups and cups now seemed like they didn't know each other now, with a bit of boredom on their faces.
Fan Li was frustrated one after another and stepped aside in shock.
But he was not discouraged, nor did he blindly step forward. Instead, he observed carefully.
After watching for a while, Fan Li found that the ministers who came out now had two things in common.
First, they are all military officers with animal patches embroidered on their chests.
Secondly, they all looked pale and their steps were sluggish.
"this……"
Fan Li was extremely shocked: "What happened at the court meeting?"
After a while, some scattered civil servants came out. They looked even worse than the generals. They kept wiping their sweat with handkerchiefs and even walked a little unsteadily.
Some even go out and shout to the car park, asking their servants to come and pick them up.
Fan Li gritted his teeth and stepped forward again.
"This lord...this lord..."
There are still very few people who pay attention to him, but one finally appears.
"My lord, I am envoy Fan Li to Xia Yue Kingdom..."
"I'm with Wei Zheng."
"It turns out to be Mr. Wei!"
Fan Li bowed respectfully, but before he could say more, Wei Zheng said in a stiff tone: "The meeting did not discuss the outcome."
"His Majesty ordered, we will discuss it tomorrow."
After saying that, he strode away.
Fan Li was startled, turned around and stared at Wei Zheng's back in trance for a long time.
Officials in scarlet robes filed out of Hanguangmen, and Fan Li, who was dressed in gray robes, was like a gravel in the torrent.
After a long time, he came back to his senses and hurriedly walked out and came to his carriage.
"Master Fan! How about it?"
The groom's eyes were full of expectations: "Can my Yue country be saved??"
Fan Li gritted his teeth: "We will enter the palace tonight to meet the Holy Spirit!!"
…
Li Qian didn't know yet that he was about to be interviewed, but at this moment he had eaten and drank enough.
"Your Majesty, today's collection has been sent to the Qianyuan Front Hall." Wei Zhongxian cleared the desk.
Still approving memorials?
Batch some yarn!
Today's meeting is already annoying enough!
Li Qian rolled his eyes: "Leave it there first, I have to go back and take a bath first!"
I had been sweating all over during the court meeting, but now that I had cooled down, I felt that my whole body was sticky and very uncomfortable.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Under the scorching sun, the emperor's carriage passed through the main road of Qianyuan Palace and arrived at the Palace of Eternal Life.
Li Qian looked at this gorgeous palace from a distance under the shade of the canopy.
Since the founding of Daqian, the Changsheng Hall has been the residence of emperors of all dynasties.
If there was anything else that could attract them after becoming emperors, it would be immortality.
However, the Palace of Eternal Life, which had placed the good hopes of the Qianhuangs, did not bring them eternal life.
There will be no one left who should be reduced to dust.
Li Qian took off his sticky clothes, jumped into the large white jade bath in the Palace of Eternal Life, and let out a long breath.
The little eunuch waiting on the side constantly adjusted the temperature of the water. When it was hot, he would add ice cubes to it. When it was cold, he would control the hot spring room under the bath and light the fire.
"Go out first, go out first."
Li Qian waved his hand and drove the young eunuch out. He was the only one left in the huge bathing hall.
The sunlight filters through the red window lattice and reflects in the open space next to the bath, forming circles of wonderful patterns.
Li Qian leaned on the jade support, with his hands on the back of his head, his hair floating on the water, and his thoughts couldn't help but return to the morning meeting.
The civilian officials objected, and the military attaché wanted to send troops.
But even the military attachés were not in harmony, and all three parties were arguing about sending troops.
"There is no harmony between the civil and military affairs...and there is no harmony among the military attachés...but they can work together to defeat me..."
Thinking back to that forced remonstrance, Li Qian couldn't help but patted the water surface and splashed a few water splashes.
It makes me feel depressed just thinking about it.
"I have to give you some color to see!" Li Qian gritted his teeth.
Originally, he wasn't going to make any fuss, after all, the ruined temple in Daqian had reached the point where the house was in ruins.
But if you don't give in, are you willing to be angry? Just be a soft persimmon and let the ministers below you bully you at will?
What a shitty emperor!
To lie down, you need to have the strength to lie down. If you just retreat, you will only let others continue to provoke you. In the end, you will be forced to get involved in various things, but you will not be able to lie down!
A great man once said that if you hit with one punch, you will avoid hundreds of punches. Now Li Qian has a deep understanding of this sentence.
After he made up his mind, the question arose, how to throw the first punch?
Li Qian frowned. It would not work to act rashly. If the action failed, it would be bad if the ministers got together to demonstrate against him tomorrow and force him to remonstrate.
"Li Yuan may not help me a second time... No, why did he help me today? Is he really loyal... No, what happened to Wu Meiniang..."
The relationship was too complicated, and Li Qian didn't know much information, so he couldn't figure it out clearly after thinking about it for a long time.
Moreover, from today's point of view, the situation in the court is also very confusing. Although several civil servants have rescued Li Qian, who can guarantee that they are not behind this remonstrance?
After all, they have such great influence on hundreds of officials!
"Sigh~ We can't come up with the discussion today... and probably won't be able to come up with a result tomorrow?"
Li Qian stepped out of the bath and walked to the towel rack on the side: "Don't I have to accompany them to court every day?"
Not to mention that going to court is just a matter of receiving anger, and how can the wrinkled and old faces of the ministers compare to the smooth and tender faces of the concubines?
Only those with abnormal brains are willing to get up early and go to court every day!
He wiped his body clean and walked out of the bathing hall wearing a light yellow dragon pattern silk shirt and shorts.
"His Majesty."
Wei Zhongxian also wore simple clothes and came forward with a smile.
"Your Majesty, the weather is hot. Do you want to go to the Royal Gardens?"
"go!"
Li Qian nodded. It was really hot in the Palace of Eternal Life. Although the eunuchs could put ice cubes in the room, it would become a little damp after a long time.
On the other hand, the Yulinyuan is different. Emperors of all dynasties like to go there to escape the heat in the summer.
It is not far from the Changsheng Palace, on the northernmost side of Qianyuan Palace, and adjacent to Taiye Pond.
Riding the rickety carriage all the way north, Li Qian frowned and rubbed his chin:
"I seem to have forgotten something..."
Looking at the scenery on both sides, the layers of palaces and pavilions, Li Qian suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Yes, I want to find Changsun Wugou!"
No, no, I should have called her over when I was taking a bath...
Li Qian felt a little sad.
When he left Feishui Pavilion in the morning, he still wanted to finish the court meeting and go back as soon as possible!
I just never thought that the court meeting would be delayed for so long.
"His Majesty?"
Wei Zhongxian asked tentatively: "Should we go to Zhongcui Hall now?"
Li Qian hesitated for a moment, but still refused: "Let's forget it for now and go later."
It was the hottest time of the day, and he really couldn't get into the mood.
The carriage traveled north and arrived outside the Royal Forest Garden.
There are green trees, lush vegetation, regular flower fields, dotted with strange rocks, lush trees, ancient cypresses and vines, all of which have hundreds of years of history.
There are winding paths, gurgling water, arch spans of white jade bridges, blue pebble pavement and grass-colored pavilions, and pavilions with red columns and yellow tiles.
Looking from a distance, one can vaguely see many tall pavilions with overhanging eaves and corners, hidden by trees.
But today Li Qian is going to Liang Dafu Pavilion, which was the summer resort of emperors of all dynasties.
As the horse crossed the green cobblestone road, Li Qian squinted and felt the cool breeze in the forest.
There are not many people in Yulinyuan on weekdays, only the emperor and his concubines can come.
"Doctor Liang Pavilion..."
Li Qian looked at the yellow eaves hidden behind the green branches and leaves from a distance, and said with emotion: "I remember I often went there to play when I was a child."
"But when I grew up, I moved to the East Palace and never went there again..."
