As soon as the colorful silk that had been hung in the prince's mansion was removed, many people came to the door.

These people are all residents of the capital, and they spontaneously organized themselves to come to meet the next emperor, the current prince of the An Dynasty.

Ouyang Zhi walked out of the prince's mansion in a hurry, stood at the door and said to the people: "Fathers and elders, please, the prince just went out just now, and now he is not in the mansion. ”

The prince is not in the palace?

The people looked at each other, and all of them had puzzled and disappointed expressions on their faces.

After asking each other a few words, one of the old men asked Ouyang Zhi: "Dare to ask my lord, this prince is newly established today, and everyone wants to see the demeanor of the prince, why is he not in the mansion?" ”

Ouyang Zhi sighed and said, "Alas...... The prince is filial piety, and when he heard that the emperor was sick again, he went to Xiangguo Temple, chanted the Buddha, and prayed for the emperor! ”

Pray for the emperor?

The people who came to the prince's mansion were relieved when they heard the words, the An Dynasty advocated the way of the sage, respected Confucianism, and paid attention to people: loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, righteousness, honesty, and shame, among which loyalty and patriotism were in the forefront, and the second was filial piety!

The prince has such filial piety, which is naturally a blessing to the world, so the people are also happy.

What a prince! Originally, today was the day of the crown prince's coronation in the East Palace, and this ceremony has not yet begun, the prince is willing to be out of the limelight and pray for the emperor, what is this not a good prince?

Ouyang Zhi said again: "The prince has ordered, everything is simple, this ceremony will be waived today, folks, please go back!" ”

After saying that, Ouyang Zhi turned around proudly and walked into the prince's mansion, and the smile on his face couldn't be concealed at all.

It's worthy of Lord Shi! It's a beautiful hand, but it's ......

The moment Ouyang Zhi walked into the Prince's Mansion, he heard the voices of the people in his ears.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is a blessing for the country that the prince is so benevolent! For the sake of the emperor, this prince doesn't want to see all of us, but we can go to Xiangguo Temple to ask for a meeting, everyone says yes or no? ”

"Well said......"

"Yes!"

"Let's go, we'll go......"

“……”

The words of the people frightened Ouyang Zhi's face, and in an instant, a group of grass and mud horses galloped past in his heart, and said in his heart: These people, isn't this adding to the chaos?

You go to Xiangguo Temple together, how can the prince's safety be guaranteed with this scale of several thousand?

Besides, the prince prayed for the emperor to Xiangguo Temple, this is filial piety! If you people follow along, and the scene becomes bigger, it will become a show!

Also, the emperor is not dead yet, and you people respect the prince like this, what will the emperor think?

The more Ouyang Zhi thought about it, the more scared he became, what should he do now?

The people have already begun to leave, and Ouyang Zhi alone can't stop it at all!

No way, you still need to tie the bell to the bell!

Ouyang Zhi explained to the people in the prince's mansion, 'This official will come when he goes', and then he led a horse in a panic and ran in the direction of the palace, and finally stopped Ji Ping, Cao Gang and Shi Zhongyuan who had just gotten off the sedan chair at the palace gate.

"It turned out to be Zhuangyuanlang!" Ji Ping smiled at Ouyang Zhi.

Ouyang stopped his horse, and didn't care about accepting and saluting, so he said to Shi Zhongyuan: "Lord Shi, something is wrong!" ”

"What?" Shi Zhongyuan frowned.

Ouyang Zhi said: "Lord Shi, the people were very excited when they heard that the prince was praying for the emperor, and then spontaneously organized, and everyone went to Xiangguo Temple to meet Tai!" ”

"Huh?" Shi Zhongyuan was unexpected, and after being surprised, he immediately calmed down, after all, he was a figure who had been mixed in the court for decades, and after calming down, Shi Zhongyuan asked Ouyang Zhi: "How many people are there?" ”

"More than 2,000 people!" Ouyang Zhi reported a terrifying number.

More than 2,000 people, not much, but if you really want to gather, I'm afraid you can tear down Xiangguo Temple!

Shi Zhongyuan's face changed, and he said to Ji Ping and Cao Gang: "Two adults, I'm afraid that I won't be able to enter the palace now!" ”

Ji Ping also nodded, and then said, "I don't want Lord Shi to come out, but I made trouble with myself!" ”

Although the people's actions were unexpected by everyone, but this also shows the people's love for the prince, Ji Ping's old ministers grew up watching Zhao Ziji grow up, and their hearts were naturally happy for Zhao Ziji, so at this critical juncture, since they still made jokes!

Shi Zhongyu shook his head and said, "I didn't expect it! In this way, Lord Cao, please go to the Yamen of the Admiral of the Nine Gates quickly, let them block the city gate, and don't let the people go out of the city! ”

Cao Gang nodded and said, "That's all!" ”

So, Cao Gang rode Ouyang Zhi's horse, and then went to the yamen of the Admiral of the Nine Gates.

Ouyang Zhi, Ji Ping and Shi Zhongyuan rushed to the city gate to stop the people.

The people's enthusiasm for the worship of the crown prince has risen, where is it so easy to dispel?

When I arrived at the city gate, I saw the new commander of the Nine Gates Xiang Cha with the people, although blocking the way of the people, but the people did not go back, but were theorizing with Xiang Cha.

As for Cao Gang, he stood to the side expressionlessly, waiting for the arrival of Ji Ping and the others.

Under the escort of the soldiers, Ji Ping, Shi Zhongyuan and Ouyang Zhi came to the gate of the city, Ji Ping was the first assistant, Shi Zhongyuan was the deputy minister, and naturally Ji Ping spoke.

Ji Ping was in a good mood now, happy for Zhao Ziji, so he hugged his fists and said to the people: "Fellow villagers, have you ever known the officials?" ”

The people naturally knew the new chief minister of the imperial court, so they shouted in uneven voices: "Meet your lordship!" ”

Ji Ping nodded and said loudly: "Everyone, the prince went to Xiangguo Temple to pray for the emperor, the most important thing is sincerity, if you go to Xiangguo Temple, disturb the prince's state of mind to pray for the emperor, and break the prince's sincerity, that is to trap the prince in unfilial piety!" So, please come back! ”

is worthy of Ji Ping, a sentence is not leaky, so that the people have no way to defend it.

After a moment of silence, these lovely aborigines in the capital had disappointed looks written on their faces, and they seemed to have obeyed Ji Ping's words and dispelled the idea of going to Xiangguo Temple.

However, none of the people were willing to leave first, and everyone stood in a daze, looking out of the city gate from time to time!

Seeing this, Ji Ping glanced back at Shi Zhongyuan, Shi Zhongyuan shook his head, saying that he had no choice!

So, the city gate was blocked by the people for a while, and the dense crowd surrounded the streets, and even the number of people increased, many of them saw the people gathered together, and inquired that everyone was waiting for the prince to return to the city, and then also joined the crowd waiting for the prince to return to Beijing!

This meeting surprised the well-informed three imperial court ministers Ji Ping and Cao Gang and Shi Zhongyuan, as well as Ouyang Zhi, the new champion and prince's guest!
