With the development of muskets in his mind, Li Chen had a simple breakfast and took advantage of the brightening sky to head towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Today is the day for morning service.
Li Chen has a large number of matters that need to be passed at this morning meeting to form a formal decision of the court.
Such as top priorities, rewards, commendations and promotions for victorious teachers.
This is not only Li Chen's praise for the soldiers who fought desperately to kill the enemy, but also an important opportunity to take this opportunity to show goodwill to the military and increase the influence of the East Palace in the military.
When the first ray of morning light from the east penetrated the clouds and illuminated the Jinshui Bridge in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, with a mighty and melodious song, the civil and military officials walked across the Jinshui Bridge in sequence from both sides of the open palace door.
bridge and come to the square.
On the steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the square, standing at the entrance of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the eunuch held a clean whip.
Bang bang bang...
After nine consecutive ringings, he sang loudly: "Go up...to the court..."
The civil servants were led by Zhao Xuanji, and the military commander was led by Su Zhenting.
With Wen on the left and Wu on the right, dozens of officials who were qualified to go to court entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony one after another.
When they entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Li Chen, dressed in a bright red Prince Panlonggun uniform, walked in from the side, walked up to the royal platform, and stood next to the magnificent dragon chair. Behind him was a huge nine-dragon wall made of pure gold, and directly above it was a piece of nine-dragon wall made of pure gold.
Emperor Taizu personally wrote the plaque with the four characters "Jianji Suiyou", which is solemn and solemn and shows the royal demeanor.
"Minds and ministers, please see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."
All civil and military officials knelt down and shouted in salute.
Li Chen raised his hand to support me and said: "My dear friends, you can go down without courtesy."
Everything is going on as usual and looks normal.
But even beneath this normality, there is great danger hidden.
This danger and unusualness were immediately highlighted after the process was completed and the morning court officially started.
Because no one spoke.
On weekdays, even if nothing happens, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs will report some work details, treating it as a report to the emperor or prince, as well as to colleagues in other departments.
But today, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was eerily quiet.
Li Chen glanced down, focused on Zhao Xuanji's face for a moment, and then said: "My dear friends, do you have anything to say?"
Still no one said a word.
This made Li Chen's words seem a bit cold and embarrassing.
Seeing that the situation is getting more and more weird, Su Zhenting, as a die-hard member of the East Palace, naturally cannot sit idly by and ignore it.
He turned his head and winked at a general behind him.
After receiving the signal, the general walked to the middle, saluted Li Chen and said: "Your Highness, I will tell you something at the end."
Li Chen nodded and said: "Yes."
Just when the general was about to speak, Shangguan Zhao, the current Minister of War, suddenly spoke loudly: "Your Highness, I have something important to report!"
A sentence of important things shows your attitude that you must say it first.
The general who had been robbed of his words became a little angry. He turned to Shangguan Zhao and said, "Sir Shangguan, the last general will go out first to start the performance. There is always a first-come, first-served basis in everything?"
Shangguan Zhao said calmly: "I just didn't think clearly about how to make a clear statement to His Highness. Why, General Liu has any objections?"
The general gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Sir Shangguan is the Minister of the Ministry of War, so the general will not dare to have any opinions!"
Although he said this, the look of anger and dissatisfaction on his face was beyond words.
Li Chen said calmly: "Okay, since Shangguan Shangshu said that there is something important to report, Shangguan Shangshu should say it first."
Shangguan Zhao saluted and said in a deep voice: "I am reporting that the deputy commander of the Yulin Guard, Huaiyuan General Su Pingbei, lied about the military situation, fabricated military exploits, and harmed dissidents!"
