Coming out to show your identity will of course arouse suspicion, questioning, and conflict among the palace guards, which are all necessary.
Even if they were not frightened by his momentum, the soldiers would have killed this guy who was pretending to be a ghost.
Wang Jian was not angry. He just asked someone to call Shen Luoyan and the others, while he chatted with his master Fei Xuan, Huan Huan and others and waited quietly.
Ten minutes later, the Xuanwu Gate opened wide, and soldiers were kneeling on both sides, shouting long live.
Shen Luoyan, Shan Wanjing and Dugu Feng all saluted and were all held in Wang Jian's arms.
"Your Majesty, there is still someone here."
"It's okay, my beloved concubine has worked hard."
"It is my duty to relieve the emperor's worries, not to mention that I also like my current life."
Wang Jian nodded, said a few sweet words, and then chatted with Shan Wanjing and Dugu Feng for a while.
As everyone talked, they walked towards the palace.
Following his steps, the lights around him became brighter and brighter, and even some eunuchs quickly left the palace and went to the mansions of major officials in Chang'an to inform the emperor.
The sudden arrival of the emperor in the middle of the night was simply unbelievable.
However, I think of the fact that the title of "Yang Guang", the best player in the world, is now spread all over the world.
Although many people think that he is not worthy of his name, after all, even if he killed Ning Daoqi and the four holy monks, it may have been caused by a sneak attack.
But no matter how you say it, "Yang Guang" is so powerful that it is inevitable that he will not be weaker than the three great masters.
Now that Ning Daoqi is dead, someone has replaced "Yang Guang" in Ning Daoqi's place and called him one of the three great masters in the world.
However, not many people recognized this title. After all, "Yang Guang" was famous all over the world for his cruelty. How could the world's rebellious armies give "Yang Guang" a chance to improve his reputation?
Of course, Wang Jian cannot care about this name, because it is of no use. What he wants is benefits rather than fame.
Arriving at the Daye Palace, Wang Jian asked the palace maids to go down to rest along with Fan Qinghui and other girls, and chatted in detail with Shen Luoyan, Shan Wanjing, and Dugu Feng for a while, and learned about the current situation in Chang'an.
Not long after, officials from Chang'an arrived one after another.
Most of the officials who followed "Yang Guang" to Jiangdu were high officials of the imperial court, but some of them stayed in the capital Chang'an.
It's just that the world is in chaos, their power is seriously affected, and the court in Jiangdu has diluted the power of these people.
Wang Jian didn't value them particularly, even those from Jiangdu. If these officials were really so powerful and trustworthy, the world would not be in chaos.
The emperor of the feudal dynasty did have great power, but if the officials below were really capable, they would definitely be able to wipe the ass of the emperor who acted recklessly.
No matter how cruel the method is, you can still find a beneficial side.
For example, if the Grand Canal was opened, if the officials below had not imposed excessive taxes, how could "Yang Guang", a person who remotely controlled and didn't even care much, have such great destructive power?
In the three expeditions to Goryeo, if the people below did not hold back, could Goryeo's small number of troops be able to withstand an army of hundreds of thousands?
Obviously, these people cannot be trusted, and the same goes for Jiangdu officials.
Therefore, the imperial examination system is imperative, and the three-party supervision departments of the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple and Yushitai must be vigorously developed.
Once the administration of officials improves, everything else will be easy.
Now that the world is in chaos, the south is slowly clearing out some disreputable nobles and taking back land and some books.
Luoyang and Chang'an City and other places also plan to slowly clean up their officialdom.
Some officials who are incompetent, greedy or even collaborators must be eliminated.
Don’t be afraid of shock to the officialdom. The world is already like this anyway. Do you still need to care about this?
What's more, if we don't do it now, it will be even harder to clean up when the world becomes stable.
When the time comes, if a single move affects the whole body, you may not want the world to be in chaos again, and it will become endless troubles.
When hundreds of officials arrived, Wang Jian went to court. On the one hand, he said that he had come to calm people's hearts, and on the other hand, he wanted to see whether these officials were worth staying.
Qu Tutong and Song Laosheng also arrived and knelt down on the spot to apologize.
They lost so many cities and even the shackles of Tongguan. According to Yang Guang's character before, he would have killed them long ago.
Of course, Wang Jian was not willing to let such generals be beheaded, but he did not give them a good look. Not only was he punished by being demoted, but he was also given half a year's salary.
Such a punishment was already very light, and Qu Tutong and Song Laosheng shouted long live.
I had a casual chat with hundreds of officials and learned more about Chang'an City and the surrounding areas. It was already past seven in the morning.
He immediately withdrew from the court and took the three daughters Shen Luoyan, Dugu Feng and Shan Wanjing to the dining room for dinner.
Shi Feixuan and her daughter traveled all night. Although they were not very tired, it was already past three o'clock in the night when they arrived at the palace.
Besides, we had to arrange accommodation and other issues, so it was after five o'clock when we went to bed.
So I haven’t gotten up yet. According to some movies and TV shows, sleep is a very effective way to fight aging.
Everyone is still relying on them, even Fan Qinghui is no exception.
Wang Jian and the three girls were eating breakfast, and their understanding of Chang'an City, especially the imperial palace, was deepening.
"By the way, have you visited my mysterious building? Are there any beauties?"
After learning about the situation in Chang'an, Wang Jian could no longer bear it.
Shan Wanjing pouted dissatisfiedly: "Your Majesty, isn't getting us enough to make you happy?"
Wang Jian quickly stepped forward and hugged her waist: "Of course not, I'm just curious."
Dugu Feng rolled her eyes at him and said angrily: "Your Majesty, don't think too much about it. Since you went to Jiangdu, the Lost Tower has been in name only."
It's just curiosity, not lust.
Wang Jian was stunned: "In other words, my mysterious building has not been open for a long time?"
"Yes, after you went to Jiangdu, no one entered the mysterious building again."
Shen Luoyan said playfully, as if he was watching his joke.
"Hey, I was looking forward to it a lot, but it's a pity. It seems that the officials in Chang'an really don't take me seriously."
Although Wang Jian is disappointed, he will not be miserable because of it.
He really wants beauties. He can wait until the world is at peace and spread the imperial edict to select officials from all over the world.
When the time comes, beauties from all over the country will gather and he will be too busy being a groom every day.
But if he really wanted to do that, it would be too much to provoke hatred. Unless his authority reaches its peak, he really wouldn't dare.
On the other hand, the officials of Chang'an City had so many things on their minds that they didn't trust him as soon as he left.
Shen Luoyan stared at him sternly: "Your Majesty, if you really want a beauty, just try again."
Wang Jian shook his head: "No, it's okay to end it. I'm just curious."
These words made the three women look much better, and Shan Wanjing in her arms even took the initiative to give him benefits.
Later, Wang Jian asked the maids to take away the bowls and chopsticks, and then placed Shan Wanjing on the dining table. Shen Luoyan and Dugu Feng saw that something was not going well and tried to escape quickly, but were easily caught by him.
Such exaggerated actions made the palace ladies extremely ashamed, but they all stared at them with envy and jealousy as they saw the emperor showing off his power over the three beloved concubines.
