Chapter 452 Early Dynasty

"Ming Yan, tell the government that we will send another carriage to pick up Mr. Ye today." Gu Chengyu was sitting on the carriage, thinking about the court meeting later.

It suddenly occurred to him that if he left early today, Ye Zhiqiu would be without the carriage, so he ordered Ming Yan.

"yes!"

He had to guard outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony with the officials first. He was the only one from the sixth rank, wearing a green robe, so he would definitely be very eye-catching inside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

When Gu Chengyu arrived, there were already officials in the square in front of Danbi, gathering in twos and threes to chat.

Gu Chengyu's arrival did not attract the attention of other officials, because the sky was still a little gray and the color of the clothes could not be seen without looking carefully. He looked for Wu An among these officials.

Wu An was the Prime Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, a fourth-rank official, and had to come to court every day. In fact, He Jisheng also had to go to court, but his relationship with He Jisheng was not very harmonious, and he did not want to pretend to compliment each other with He Jisheng.

Gu Chengyu has good eyesight. Although it is not yet bright, he has already spotted Wu An not far ahead. At this time, he is chatting with another person. It seems that the conversation is quite congenial?

He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the second senior brother, who was so taciturn, could be very talkative in front of his colleagues?

"Second Senior Brother!" Gu Chengyu stepped forward and shouted to Wu An.

Wu An heard that the second senior brother looked familiar. He turned around and saw that it was Gu Chengyu. Gu Chengyu gradually approached. Although the sky was still hazy, Wu An was sure that he had seen it right.

"Jinyu?"

"Second Senior Brother, you are here so early!" Gu Chengyu stepped forward and saluted Wu An.

Then he looked at the other person who was talking to Wu An before. The color of this person's official uniform was the same as Wu An's, and he seemed to be of the fourth grade.

Wu An was a little strange, how could he see Gu Chengyu here? Gu Chengyu was from the sixth rank and was not qualified to attend the morning court.

He suppressed the doubts in his heart and introduced to Gu Chengyu: "This is Mr. Tao, the right young minister of Dali Temple!"

Gu Chengyu quickly saluted, "Your Majesty, Gu Chengyu has met Mr. Tao!"

Of course Tao Junyan knew Gu Chengyu, who was this year's top scholar in a new subject. However, logically speaking, officials from the sixth rank were not allowed to come to the morning court! The guards guarding the palace had to check the tooth plates, how could they let those from the sixth rank

Officials coming in?

Tao Junyan and Wu An had the same idea. Wu An guessed that it was authorized by the emperor? What did Gu Chengyu mean by going to court?

"You come with me." Wu An took the lead and went to a secluded corner. He wanted to ask what was going on.

Tao Junyan knew that the two junior brothers must have something to say, and he was certainly not an ignorant person. Although he was very curious about why Gu Chengyu came to the court, he would know after the court meeting later.

"What's the matter with you? Did the emperor give you permission to attend the court meeting?" Wu An didn't know about the tea tax yet, so he quickly pulled Gu Chengyu over and planned to ask what happened.

Gu Chengyu didn't tell Wu An before because the matter had not yet been determined, so it was very inappropriate for him to tell the court officials at this time. The emperor also said that it would be announced in the court, so of course he could not make the emperor unhappy.

Besides, if Yin Kun was here, he would discuss it with Yin Kun. As for Wu An, there is still a layer between them, and the friendship between them is not that deep.

Therefore, Gu Chengyu pondered for a moment, "It was the emperor who asked me to attend the morning court. I couldn't explain it clearly for a while. The morning court will be held soon. I will go to my senior brother's house after lunch and give him a good explanation."

What’s going on here.”

Wu An could not help but nodded. This was indeed not the place to talk.

"Master Chief Assistant is here, and he came early today!"

As soon as Gu Chengyu finished speaking, he heard someone calling from behind that the chief minister was coming. Then more people came to greet Xia Qing, and Gu Chengyu and the others couldn't hide in the corner, so they had to walk towards the crowd.

He Jisheng had also arrived. His eyesight was a little poor, and the position where Gu Chengyu and the others were standing was hidden, so he searched around but couldn't find Wu An. He just thought that Wu An hadn't arrived yet.

When the chief assistant arrived, he quickly stepped forward and saluted.

Xia Qing glanced at He Jisheng in the crowd, and then nodded to everyone.

"My colleagues arrived earlier than me!"

Xia Qing exchanged greetings with everyone and planned to walk to the first seat. He held his head high and stood at the first place. There was no one else in front of him, and he could see the red wall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony very clearly, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

He smiled.

"Jin Yu?" He Jisheng thought he was dazzled, but with that vague jade-like face and cyan official uniform in the morning light, who could it be if it wasn't Gu Chengyu?

When Xia Qing heard this, he immediately turned around. When he saw it, his eyes widened. It was really Gu Chengyu.

How could Gu Chengyu be here? He was a little puzzled, and his mind was spinning a thousand times.

"Third Senior Brother!" Gu Chengyu smiled at He Jisheng and prepared to walk to the end of the crowd to stand.

No matter who is here, his official position is higher than his. At this moment, he has attracted the attention of everyone present.

"Huh? Why is this person here? Master He, do you know this official?"

Some officials were already whispering secretly, could it be that the guard did not see the tooth tag clearly and let him in? But a sixth-grade official really has the guts to come here?

However, their voices are not loud, and no one will question them face to face. These people have been in high positions for a long time, but they are all people with deep knowledge in the city. Although they are confused about such strange things, they will not bring it up face to face.

After all, for a sixth-grade person to come here, either the guards put the wrong person, or the emperor authorized it. And the former is very likely. After all, the big words on the tooth plate can always be seen clearly.

Excluding this, wouldn't it mean that he was specially summoned by the emperor? Some officials who are sensitive to politics have already guessed that something big will happen in this morning's court meeting, and it will be related to this person.

He Jisheng himself was confused. How could he answer other officials' questions?

"Huh? The eldest prince and the others are here!" There was another commotion among the officials.

Gu Chengyu looked back and saw three princes coming together. He was a little surprised. Could it be an appointment?

Before everyone could salute, a whip was heard from the front, and then an official from Honglu Temple shouted, "Enter the class!"

After everyone heard this, they quickly took their places, and Gu Chengyu also walked quickly towards the end of the crowd.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

After Gu Chengyu and others saw the bright yellow figure, as the officials bowed and kowtowed three times, the officials in front walked away for a long time. Even if the remaining officials could not enter the palace, they could not enter the palace.

You must stand according to the rules, and you must not whisper to each other.

Gu Chengyu lowered his head, expecting that the emperor would definitely leave this matter until the end. And once he said it, he would have to argue for a while. Therefore, it might take a long time to summon him.

When He Jisheng looked back, he found that Gu Chengyu was concentrating with his eyes closed. He turned around and thought about why the emperor wanted to send Gu Chengyu to court.
