Everyone was thinking, "I hope it wasn't those little bastards from my family who caused this trouble, or we're all doomed."
Only after receiving a negative answer did they breathe a sigh of relief and secretly feel lucky that they were not the ones who were unlucky.
As for who exactly offended His Majesty, that was no longer their focus at the moment. They just hoped that this turmoil would not affect them.
As they prepared their court attire, they kept muttering to themselves, "I hope Your Majesty will calm down and not implicate too many people."
The entire Taiji Hall was wet and slippery due to the rain.
According to the original convention, ministers had to change shoes before entering, but Li Chengqian did not let the ministers waste time changing shoes and let them all in directly.
Li Chengqian sat on the dragon throne, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, slowly scanning each minister.
The ministers lowered their heads, not daring to meet His Majesty's gaze. Their hearts were filled with fear, fearing that His Majesty would vent his anger on them.
Some ministers complained in their hearts: "Please don't let this matter involve me. His Majesty is very angry now. If we are not careful, it will be all over."
The entire court was so quiet that the only sound could be heard: the sound of rain outside, which seemed to add a bit of oppression to the tense atmosphere.
Zhang Xianhuai felt even more uncomfortable, his back already soaked with sweat.
He was filled with anxiety.
Why would Lu Jingsuo beat the drum to report news?
He is a member of the Imperial Guard!
His action undoubtedly put himself and the two commanders on the fire.
The most crucial thing isn't them! The most crucial thing is His Majesty! The Emperor's personal guards beat the drums to appeal for justice! The biggest slap in the face is to His Majesty's face!
No matter what, if you have any problems, you can report to me first!
When His Majesty's gaze swept over him, Zhang Xianhuai felt like a child who had made a mistake.
This is truly embarrassing for His Majesty! His legs were trembling slightly, and his eyes were full of panic.
"Is everyone here?"
Li Chengqian's majestic voice rang out in the court.
Prime Minister Fang stepped forward and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, everyone is here!"
Although he was a little nervous inside, he remained calm in front of His Majesty.
He knew that he had to stabilize the situation at this moment and not let the court become more chaotic.
Li Chengqian nodded, and the eunuch beside him immediately shouted in a shrill voice, "Lu Jingsuo, Captain of the Jinyiwei of the Xuanbei Pacification Division, and Song Jingshu, a commoner from Taiyuan, come to the court to see you!"
Under the escort of the Shenwu Army, Lu Jingsuo carried Song Jingshu on his back and walked into the Taiji Hall step by step.
"Long live your majesty!"
Just as Lu Jingsuo was about to kneel down, he heard a powerful voice.
"You're carrying someone on your back, so please stand up!"
Li Chengqian looked at Lu Jingsuo and the girl on his back, his heart filled with inexplicable emotions.
At the same time, he was secretly observing their expressions, trying to find some clues from them.
What grievances had these two people suffered that led to such a mess?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lu Jingsuo answered respectfully, feeling relieved in his heart. The fact that His Majesty was not angry now was a good opportunity for them.
Song Jingshu looked at the civil and military officials in the court, her eyes full of fear.
This was a grand scene she had never seen before, and everything around her made her feel extremely strange and frightened.
Her body trembled slightly on Lu Jingsuo's back, her teeth chattered unconsciously, and her heart was filled with fear.
With so many officials and His Majesty the Emperor, will they kick me out?
Will they not believe me? What should I do if I can't avenge my family? My family can't have died in vain.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let them fall.
Lu Jingshuo sensed Song Jingshu's fear and lifted her up a little.
She gently comforted him, "It's alright, don't be afraid."
Although his voice was not loud, it was full of power. He hoped to give Song Jingshu some courage and make her less afraid.
