The father and son have a plastic scent, but it is indeed not their biological parents.

Gu Qing, who was very calm when he was criticized by thousands of people, was angry at this moment.

Rebellious son! A sinful devil!

"Come, order all the troops and horses to surround Jingzhao Mansion!" Gu Qing smiled at the sky.

Han Jie was stunned, then he clasped his fists and said, "After the order!"

As soon as he turned around with murderous intent, Gu Qing called him and said helplessly: "The son is unfilial, the father's fault. Of course, I chose to forgive him. There is no need to ask for troops. I will give him face today and I will be in the court."

Leading Han Jie and dozens of personal guards, Gu Qing went out to get on the carriage and headed towards Jingzhao Mansion.

Jingzhao Prefecture is a local government in Chang'an, which is under the jurisdiction of Chang'an, Wannian and the administrative affairs of the 22 counties around Chang'an City, which is roughly equivalent to the capital city government a thousand years later. The difference is that it has a wider jurisdiction.

The prefect is a third-rank official, and there are two young men under the prefect, and in addition to this, there are Gongcao, Silu, Sicang, and Judicial officials.

Jingzhao Mansion is located in Guangdefang, Xicheng, Chang'an. The carriage came to the front of the official yard. Gu Qing got out of the carriage. Han Jie and other personal guards lined up behind Gu Qing with a murderous look. They scared the officers on duty at the door to the point of no one looked like they looked. They didn't even dare to ask questions. They took a few steps back and kept swaying their legs.

Seeing that the servants were so scared, Gu Qing turned his head and glared at Han Jie and his personal guards, saying, "Be kind, be friendly, don't act like a scout and killing people."

Han Jie and his personal guards immediately put away their murderous aura and tried hard to squeeze out friendly smiles at the officers.

There was a person standing in front of the government office. He was about thirty years old, wearing a cloth robe, a rough scarf, a round neck and wide sleeves, and an ordinary face, but had a calm temperament.

Seeing Gu Qing coming, the man hurriedly came forward, greeted him when he met, and said, "Students pay homage to Mr. Gu."

Gu Qing frowned: "You are..."

"The student is named Qing Chongshu, and he is Mubin of the Song Prefecture. When he was in Jiannan Daojie Prefecture, he was Mubin of the Song Prefecture. He has known each other for many years."

Gu Qing smiled: "This kid actually has Mu Bin, and he really wants to go to heaven."

Qing Chongshu looked nervous, turned his head and looked at the official yamen, and whispered: "The student was ordered by the Song Prefecture Prime Minister to wait for Mr. Gu in front of the official yamen. The Song Prefecture Prime Minister ordered the student to bring a message to the master. It was not the intention of the Song Prefecture Prime Minister to ask the master to pass the court today, but the Censorate sent someone to supervise it. The man was in accordance with the emperor's order, and the Song Prefecture Prime Minister could not disobey, so he had to sue him in advance and ask him to forgive him for his crime."

Gu Qing nodded and said, "I also guessed that Gensheng must be unable to control himself, otherwise I would not have been able to come here today."

Qing Chongshu thanked him and said, "The case in the refugee camp outside the city has become very riots now. The court and the people criticized the prince, and the pressure on Jingzhao Mansion is also quite high. Today, I asked the prince to pass the court just to go through the motions. Everyone knows that the murderer is not the prince, and the prefect Song Dynasty would probably ask a few questions and be fine."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "No need to explain. My relationship with Gensheng does not require any explanation."

Qing Chongshu hesitated and said, "The students naturally understand the relationship between the Duke and the Song Prefecture Order, but today's court is not dominated by the Song Prefecture Order..."

"Oh? What does it mean?"

Qing Chongshu whispered: "Someone in the court intends to take advantage of the issue. Today, the censor Li Xian came. He was ordered to interrogate the prince. The prefect Song Dynasty could not make the decision. Judging from the censor's appearance, it seemed that the visitor was not good..."

"Li Xian?" Gu Qing frowned.

The main figure in the Censorate is the Censor. In order to commit a poisoning case, the Censor took action personally. Obviously, Li Heng did not have good intentions and intended to put the case tightly on Gu Qing's head.

Although with Gu Qing's current power, even if it was confirmed that the case was his, Li Heng would have no choice but to do anything to him, if it was confirmed, Gu Qing would have no good reputation in the court and among the people from now on, and even the Anxi Army became a rat crossing the street that everyone called for. It would be no good for the future court situation.

People's hearts are what they want and what they are betrayed. When the balance of subjects' psychology tilts towards Li Heng, Gu Qing became the second An Lushan image in the court and the country. In the future, no matter what the Anxi Army wants to do, there will be many obstacles out of thin air. Under the guidance of thousands of people, even the Anxi Army will split.

Gu Qing raised his lips slightly and chuckled, "Killing someone to kill his heart, hehe, it's a good plan. Such a plan shouldn't be something the emperor could think of..."

A conspiracy can point directly to the essence, divide the enemy's internal roots from the root, quickly occupy the commanding heights in public opinion, and guide the onlookers' psychological tendencies from the hearts. When their own strength is not as good as the enemy, using this method to counterattack is considered exquisite.

Gu Qing stood in front of the government office for a long time and had not moved, but his eyes looked towards Xingqing Palace, with a smile on his eyes.

"Why can't you just live your life in the palace honestly?" Gu Qing murmured.

Qing Chongshu stood by with confusion, and Gu Qing murmured to himself that he hadn't heard it. Seeing that he had not moved for a long time, Qing Chongshu didn't dare to urge him.

After a long time, Gu Qing waved his hand and said, "Go in, today I will also experience the feeling of being a prisoner and being questioned by an official."

Qing Chongshu smiled and said, "It's just an inquiry, not an interrogation. The prince's words are so serious."

Gu Qing did not comment and stepped into Jingzhao Prefecture.

Han Jie and other personal guards behind him followed without hesitation. Qing Chongshu's eyelids twitched. It seemed a bit inappropriate to take the personal guards into the Jingzhao Prefecture, but he didn't dare to say anything more. It was not his turn to intervene in the big man's affairs.

This time, the Jingzhao Mansion hosted Gu Qing in a relatively high standard, and he actually tried the case in the lobby.

When Gu Qing walked into the front yard, he saw the officers from Jingzhao Mansion standing in two rows, with the water and fire sticks in his hands pierced on the ground, with a majestic look on his eyes.

In the lobby, it was not Song Gensheng who sat first, but a purple-robed official in his forties. The official looked serious and arrogant without anger. He sat upright and straightened his waist. In line with the atmosphere of Zhuang Mu in the lobby, he seemed extremely depressed. The prisoner with a slightly less courage would probably kneel involuntarily when he walked into the lobby.

Gu Qing is actually not very brave, but his strength is not allowed to kneel down.

Leading his personal guards into the lobby, Gu Qing first glanced at Song Gensheng, who was silent on the side, and then raised his eyes to face the first official.

The purple-robed official was named Li Xian, who was considered a famous minister. Before Chang'an was recovered, Li Xian was appointed as the prefect of Fufeng. Later, after Li Heng returned to Chang'an, Li Xian was granted the title of Censor and led the Censorate to supervise all officials in the court and the country.

In theory, Gu Qing was also one of the targets of being supervised by the Censorate. Gu Qing was involved in the matter and the Censor's trial was justified and legal.

Gu Qing stepped into the lobby and understood everything after seeing Li Xian.

Li Heng tried his best to deal with him, and the person he chose was just right.

Li Xian was not only a censor, but also a title of Duke of Liang. His identity was similar to Gu Qing. Of course, in terms of official positions and empty ranks, he was still slightly lower than Gu Qing. Gu Qing also served as the Prince's Shaobao, Guanglu Dafu, and Pingzhangshi, a subordinate of the Central Secretariat.

If you have the same status, you don’t have to be too polite.

Seeing Gu Qing walk into the lobby, Li Xian frowned, and the first sentence was a little unkind.

"Duke Gu Guo, Jingzhao Prefecture is the official office of Jingji. How can you lead the personal guards into the court?"

Gu Qing said oh, and said lightly: "I am timid and afraid of death, and I am afraid that someone will assassinate you, so the personal guards must stay with you. Is this answer satisfactory?"

Li Xian was stunned and looked angrily.

Song Gensheng curled his lips and turned his head away from him with a smile.

Gu Qing exclaimed and said with a puzzled look: "Since this place is the Jingzhao Prefecture Office, why isn't the Jingzhao Prefecture Chief sitting in the main seat but the Censor? Has the Censorate's Office changed the place?"

Li Xian was stunned, subconsciously raised his hand to stroke his beard, and after a while, he said, "I am ordered to ask about the case. The case will be handed over to the censorate. What's wrong with sitting in the main seat?"

Gu Qing smiled: "Since you are the director of the Censorate, you should ask about the case at the Censorate Office. Why are you sitting in the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion? Li Yutai, you are occupying the nest and breaking the rules. You should send a red envelope to the prefect to apologize when you look back."

Li Xian finally couldn't hold back his face and became angry: "Duke Gu, you are also an important official in the court. I hope you will lose your dignity in the court."

Gu Qing's face suddenly darkened and he stared at him coldly: "Li Yutai, are you questioning me as a prisoner today?"

Li Xian was stunned again, and this was difficult to answer. Putting aside Gu Qing's identity, Gu Qing was really not a criminal just about the evidence in this case.

After a little embarrassed silence, Li Xian finally said: "Duke Gu is an important official of the court, how could he be a criminal? I asked Duke Gu to come today just for inquiries, not for interrogation."

Gu Qing nodded and said, "Since I am not an interrogation, I am a guest of Jingzhao Mansion. I should treat the guests with courtesy. Li Yutai, how about it?"

Li Xian nodded with a calm face.

Gu Qing smiled and said, "You sit and I stand. Is this a way to treat guests?"

Before Li Xian could speak, Song Gensheng next to him hurriedly said, "Come here, please sit down by Duke Gu."

Gu Qing laughed, sat in the court without hesitation, turned his head and glanced at Song Gensheng.

Song Gensheng also smiled at him secretly, but this smile made Gu Qing particularly dissatisfied. He scolded Li Xian intentionally or unintentionally: "You still have the face to smile! Jingzhao Mansion is your territory. Is it embarrassing to be thrown away by someone else? I, the tent of the Anxi Army Commander, dare to sit in my position? I have been dragged out and cut off with a knife."

Li Xian suddenly felt a dark look in front of him, both shocked and angry.

I couldn't believe that Gu Qing actually said such impolite words to his face. It was clearly the Censor's order to ask about the case, but he took the initiative to provoke it. As Gu Qing said this, there was no more majesty in the court.

"Gu Qing, you're too bullying!" Li Xian angrily slapped the table.

Gu Qing didn't even move, but there was a sound of drawing a sword outside the hall.

Han Jie and his guards lined up outside the hall, with the horizontal sword in their hands unsheathed, pointing to the tip of the knife, the guards stared at Li Xian coldly, and an invisible and rich murderous intent locked on Li Xian.

Li Xian's expression changed drastically, and he stood behind the table in a daze and didn't dare to move. He felt that as long as he made any small moves, the group of wolves and tigers outside would rush in and chop him up to pieces.

The officers of Jingzhao Mansion outside the hall had already avoided it, and no one dared to say a word, let alone provoke these personal guards who were about to kill.

After a long time, Gu Qing chuckled and broke the unbearable silence.

"Li Yutai, speak well, don't lose your temper. I'm very timid. What should I do if I'm frightened by you? I'm an important official of the court and a powerful weapon of the country. I should be carefully cared for in my hands." After Gu Qing said that, he threw a angrily look at him.

Then Gu Qing then said to Han Jie and other guards outside the court: "Put your knife away and it's so ugly to show this thing casually. It's too rude to be in the court."

Han Jie and his guards moved their swords and put them into the sheath, but their bodies still did not move. They lined up outside the hall, staring at Li Xian coldly, and the depressing atmosphere still did not diminish.

Li Xian's face turned pale, and his hands hiding in the sleeves of the robe were trembling slightly.

With the actions of the personal guards drawing their swords, the offensive and defensive situation in the court has already changed.

At this moment, Li Xian felt more like a prisoner, but Gu Qing inexplicably became the official who interrogated the prisoner.

…………

Xingqing Palace, inside the Caly Building.

Today, Li Heng entered Xingqing Palace to greet the Supreme Emperor Li Longji.

Compared with Gu Qing and Song Gensheng, the father-son relationship between Li Longji and Li Heng is more like plastic.

Whether it is for others to see or to be at ease, Li Heng went to Xingqing Palace to ask for peace, it was not because of filial piety. Li Longji's suppression and utilization of the East Palace for many years had already consumed the little filial piety in Li Heng's heart.

If it weren't for the ruthlessness, Li Heng would have wanted his father to be in the immortal class in advance.

However, in order to deal with the powerful ministers and protect the Li Tang dynasty, the plastic father and son had to form an alliance. The huge grudge was put aside first and then form a team to bring down the powerful ministers.

The Huacao Building was a little cold. Li Longji wrapped in a thick cloak and placed two charcoal basins in front of him, and still felt a wave of chill seeping into his bones.
