Everyone in the hall was stunned and speechless. No wonder the emperor had to dress up and go to the palace today. The answer has been revealed. Today is a big day for the emperor. He not only wants to issue an edict to admit his fault to the world, but also announces the proposal to establish a prince.
.This also means that from today on, the countdown to his abdication begins. Today must be a difficult day for him, and it is also a big day worth remembering. So he dressed up to attend, not to worship the ancestors of heaven and earth.
But for himself.
"Your Majesty..." the ministers knelt down and shouted. Many ministers shed tears.
Suddenly, someone jumped up and yelled and cursed at Yan Zhengsheng, Fang Dunru and others who were kneeling on the ground: "A group of thieves who have brought disaster to the country and the people, look at the good things you have done. But the mistakes you committed have to be punished by the emperor."
Carrying it on, aren’t you ashamed? Don’t you feel ashamed? Because of your fault, the Emperor will be infamed throughout the ages, how can you feel at ease?”
"What I'm saying is that you two are not only traitors to the country, but also rebellious and dishonest ministers. Why don't you, your ministers, kill you if you do what you do?"
"The emperor withdraws the imperial edict. All the faults are the fault of Yan Fang and the two of them. You don't have to bear the blame for them. Punish these two people severely, abolish the new law, bring righteousness and clear voices, and restore the Qingming government of Langlang, my great Zhou Dynasty."
"Yes, yes, punish the traitors of the country severely, punish the traitors of the country severely."
"..."
Dozens of ministers echoed one after another, shouting at Yan Zhengsheng and Fang Dunru with righteous indignation. The crowd was excited and the scene was a little out of control.
Guo Chong's face was ashen and he shouted sternly: "Are you going to resist the decree?"
A group of noisy people quickly fell silent and knelt down, not even daring to shout.
Guo Chong took a long breath and said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, I have issued an edict to punish myself. All my faults are due to my poor thinking and are not the fault of Yan Fang and the two of them. Even if they made mistakes, they followed them.
I am just doing my will. You are not allowed to slander or criticize them anymore. I have made it very clear that Yan Fang and I will make corrections to the shortcomings of the new law. I believe that they will do their duty and learn lessons."
The ministers were silent, and many people were thinking: "The Emperor has nothing to say about how good Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru are. These two people didn't express anything at all. They are really inferior to pigs and dogs."
Guo Chong continued in a serious tone: "I am issuing this edict just to tell you, and to tell hundreds of millions of subjects in the world. I am not perfect, and I will make mistakes. I am not without the courage to admit my mistakes. To govern a huge country like ours, Zhou Dynasty,
It is intricate and intricate, and it is impossible to cover every aspect. I have made mistakes, and I naturally have to admit them. My heart for the Great Zhou Dynasty can be learned from the sun, and I can be proud of this. Although I have only been in power for a short time, so far I have only made a few mistakes.
More than six years have passed. Maybe I will be succeeded by a successor soon, but even if I am only the emperor for a day, I will serve the Great Zhou wholeheartedly. I will never show off my faults and only focus on the rejuvenation of the Great Zhou. I would like to ask all my dear friends, what are you doing?
Can you do this like me? Are you like me, working wholeheartedly for the prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty, regardless of personal gains and losses? Ask yourself, if you still can't do it, I hope you will work hard, I hope
You can do it. I really hope that all of us in the Great Zhou Dynasty can work together to unite and change the declining situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Can you do it?" Guo Chong sat on the throne and said in a calm voice.
"My emperor is wise and truly a saint. I would like to ask the ancient emperors, how many of them can be as virtuous as the saints? How many of them can compare to the one who is devoted to the country and does not care about the reputation behind him?" A white-bearded old minister raised his arms and shouted.
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor!" the ministers shouted one after another.
Guo Chong nodded slightly and said softly: "Xian Ming dare not say anything. I just want to work hard to be a good emperor. Lu Aiqing, I entrust you with this edict of sin. The political affairs hall will issue it on my behalf and tell the world. In addition, regarding the prince,
You can consider the matter in private and report it to me. I will select a day to discuss this important matter."
Lu Zhongtian said in a deep voice: "Old minister, I obey the order."
Guo Chong stood up and said: "That's it for today. I want to take a rest. Let's go."
Qian Delu's high-pitched voice shouted: "Retreat from the court!"
…
On the ninth day of October, Lin Jue and his entourage returned to the capital. Before entering the city, Fang Huanqiu made a request to Lin Jue. She wanted to live in Lin Jue's home and did not want to return to her home in Yulin Lane. Fang Huanqiu had her reasons.
One time, she originally agreed to go to Hangzhou, but she took it upon herself to go find Lin Jue and pray for Lin Jue to help her father. With Fang Dunru's temper, if she knew the truth of the matter, she would probably be counterproductive and refuse Lin Jue's help.
.So Fang Huanqiu wanted to hide the matter and move into the Lin family mansion so that Fang Dunru would know nothing about it.
Of course, Lin Jue understood that Fang Huanqiu's reasons were more than that. During the journey from Yingtian to the capital, Fang Huanqiu was in a very happy mood. It had been a long time since he had spent such a long time with Lin Jue, and this time it was a wonderful time.
The wish came true. Bai Bing was also very conscious and deliberately left space for Lin Jue and Fang Huanqiu along the way so that they could spend more time together. Lin Jue and Fang Huanqiu rubbed their ears and temples together and laughed happily, as if they had returned to Songshan Academy back in the day.
What happened when I was studying. There were basically no taboos about sharing food, cars, living, and sleeping together. If Lin Jue hadn’t restrained himself, he would have taken the body of this little junior sister. If Lin Jue wanted to,
Fang Huanqiu will never refuse.
It's not that Lin Jue doesn't want to cook raw rice into cooked rice, but he doesn't want to do it at this time. This seems to be taking advantage of others' danger. In addition, this is also Fang Dunru's bottom line. Lin Jue is not willing to use such a method until he has to.
The trick is to get Fang Huanqiu. To embarrass Fang Dunru is actually to make Fang Huanqiu sad. It is the most difficult thing for her to be caught between the two, so unless it is a last resort, there must be room for it to prevent it from getting out of hand.
Lin Jue agreed to Fang Huanqiu's request, not out of any other considerations, but out of safety considerations. If the situation was as Fang Huanqiu said, Fang Dunru had already begun to consider the safety of his wife and daughter, and wanted to
If they are sent out of the capital, it means that the situation has become very serious and the struggle has become fierce. It is likely to evolve into an even more intense result. It is not safe for Fang Huanqiu to stay with Fang Dunru, and the secret is hidden in his own
It might be better at home. But Lin Jue thinks that he should inform Mrs. Fang to reassure her. After all, Fang Huanqiu has been away from Beijing for nearly a month. Even if he goes to Hangzhou to settle down, a letter should be delivered. If there is no news for a long time, they will definitely be worried.
of.
After the group entered the east gate, they walked west along Bianhe Avenue. The street was still busy with traffic, people were coming and going in a hurry, and the shops were doing brisk business. On the side of the Bianhe pier, shirtless porters were waving numbers.
He was carrying goods on and off the boat. On the wide channel of the Bianhe River, there were white sails and busy boats. Lin Jue rode on his horse and looked at the familiar street scene with emotion in his heart. He originally thought that he had no feelings for the capital, but at first he
When I came to the capital, I always compared Bianliang with Hangzhou. I always felt that although the capital was prosperous, it was incomparable to Hangzhou, and I always had an inexplicable resistance to the capital. But in the past few months after leaving the capital
After that, when I returned to the capital again, I felt that everything was so familiar and reassuring.
This is the capital, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a symbol of the dynasty, and a place where all the people live. My family lives here, and I have my own business. Although it is still strange and even a little cold and ruthless, it is a place that can bring everyone
A place where the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty have peace of mind. Whether you love it or hate it, you have to admit this. It is a holy place in the hearts of every subject of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Lin Jue counted the days, and it should be the last time for water transport to arrive in the capital. But he didn't know if the Lin family's water transport fleet had arrived. If so, then Luwu and Xiaohu should have followed the water transport fleet back to the capital.
Bar.
In front of the Lin family's mansion in front of the Daxiangguo Temple, the Lin family had already mobilized to welcome Lin Jue's return. Lin Jue had already ordered people to deliver the news in advance. When they learned that Lin Jue was about to return, everyone in the Lin family was very excited. Lin Jue had been away on the war for several months.
Finally coming back, this is the top priority for the Lin family.
Under the leadership of the young princess and Xie Yingying, the Lin family gathered in front of the door. Sun Dayong sent his guards to constantly inquire about the news. After Lin Jue's carriage entered the city, news was reported at every street corner.
"Young Master has entered Xishui Gate..."
"Young master has crossed the earth bridge..."
"The young master's motorcade has entered the Lijing Gate and entered the inner city..."
"The young master and his party are going to Bianhe North Street..."
"The young master's carriage and horse have crossed the Xiangguo Temple Bridge..."
As the news kept coming, Guo Caiwei and Xie Yingying were very excited. Their hands were clasped together, and they were both trembling slightly.
"We're going to see daddy soon, Zhan'er. Aren't you happy?" Guo Caiwei whispered to her son, who was being held by the nanny beside her. Lin Jue left with the army when his son was not yet one month old, and when he left, his son had not yet been officially named. Later,
In the letter home, Guo Caiwei asked Lin Jue to give him a name, so Lin Jue gave him the name Lin Zhan. The implication was that he was currently on an expedition, and she also hoped that he would not surrender or compromise and dare to fight like a warrior.
meaning.
The baby was only over two months old. His face was white and pink, his eyes were dark and round, and he was extremely cute. He was babbling and waving his hands, and seemed to be very happy.
"Reporting to the two mistresses, the young master's carriage and horses have arrived." Sun Dayong came galloping from the entrance of the alley. Behind him, there was a jumble of riders and a convoy. A group of carriages and horses turned from the street into the alley. A tall horse was riding in front of him.
The man is wearing black armor and a silver-gray cloak. He is majestic. Is it Lin Jue or who is it?
"The husband has arrived." The little princess originally warned herself not to lose her composure, to remain reserved and maintain the demeanor of the princess and the mistress of the Lin family. But at this moment, when she saw Lin Jue, she threw all this away.
Then, with a soft cry, he picked up his skirt and ran away.
"Princess, please slow down, be careful of falling." Xie Yingying reminded from the side, but she herself started to trot along.
