Chapter 174: Shocking changes, spiritual energy storm, and the fast-moving Lord Yan? All officials are horrified!!!
Logically speaking, the duties of the Daming Immortal Palace are similar to those of the Imperial College, and it should be under the management of the Ministry of Rites.
Therefore, the Minister of Rites would subconsciously look towards the cabinet, wanting to ask for a reason. After all, in his mind, this so-called Great Ming Immortal Palace would eventually be under the Ministry of Rites.
However, facing his inquiring gaze, or even the probing looks from others, the elders in the cabinet showed no intention of answering.
The cabinet's arrogant attitude made high-ranking officials such as the Six Ministries, the Censorate, and the Dali Temple feel slightly unhappy for a moment.
In their view, according to the court's laws, the cabinet had no right to lead the six ministries or even be above them. Why did the cabinet act as if it was above all officials?
Of course, this idea is understandable. After all, these people are senior officials of the new six ministries and the Inspectorate who have experienced another purge. If it were the previous ones, they would naturally follow what the cabinet says.
Daming Immortal Palace?
In the crowd, Li Zhiyuan, who had been promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and had a body as plump as a wealthy man, had a twinkling look in his eyes.
It can be said that since the rectification of the civil service administration, the six ministries have become permanent, but the officials have been changing. In the Ming Dynasty, the high-level officials from the cabinet down have experienced countless rounds of reshuffles.
And because Li Zhiyuan followed the right person, he was not only not expelled from the capital, but was even promoted all the way.
Nowadays, apart from the elders of the cabinet and a few important people, such as Hai Rui, Wang Yongji and others, he is the person who understands the biggest secrets of the court most clearly and has the deepest contact with them.
When the cabinet proposed the words "Da Ming Xianfu" today, he automatically thought of cultivating immortals.
Thinking of this, Li Zhiyuan's gaze unconsciously turned to Zhao Zhenji, who was sitting on the chair, drinking tea silently without saying a word.
"It seems that I must pay a visit to Zhao Butang." Li Zhiyuan thought secretly in his heart.
He wanted to know what this Daming Immortal Palace was used for.
"Ahem," Yan Shifan suddenly coughed. When everyone's eyes were focused on him, he spoke, "The Daming Immortal Palace can be understood as the Imperial Academy, or a college."
Imperial College? Academy? Everyone was stunned, but they didn't say anything. Instead, they continued to wait quietly for Yan Shifan's next words.
The moment Li Zhiyuan heard the word "academy", his eyes flashed and his heart beat faster!
"Could it be that he is teaching how to become an immortal?" Thinking of this, Li Zhiyuan's gaze towards Yan Shifan changed, and even his breathing became rapid at this moment.
"The Emperor will be the headmaster of the Daming Immortal Palace," Yan Shifan said, raising his hand and bowing in the direction of Yuxi Palace, "and the people from the Cabinet and the Imperial Household Department will be the professors. Of course, even the two Your Highnesses will have the Imperial Master teach them."
--hiss!
When everyone present heard Yan Shifan talking about who the dean and professor were in the Daming Immortal Palace, they couldn't help but gasp.
What did they hear? The Cabinet, the Imperial Household Department, and the two princes would all serve as professors at the Daming Immortal Palace?
Not only that, even the emperor will personally serve as the principal of the Daming Immortal Palace?
Did they hear it wrong?
Or is it that the young minister is wrong?
What exactly is this Daming Immortal Palace used for? What is its purpose? Immortal Palace? Could it really be an academy for cultivating immortals?
Haha, impossible, absolutely impossible! How could there be immortals in this world, and how could there be immortals?
The Wenhua Hall, which was not very quiet to begin with, was suddenly filled with discussions because of Yan Shifan's words.
"The emperor himself serves as the principal? Isn't this against etiquette?" The new Left Censor-in-Chief of the Inspectorate was a white-haired old man who looked a little dull. His name was Zhang Tingrui.
Not long ago, the Left Censor-in-Chief Zhang Shenxing was executed for participating in the Kong family's rebellion, and was subsequently replaced by the Right Deputy Censor-in-Chief Zhang Tingrui.
Of course, the previous Left Censor-in-Chief Zhang Shengxing was from the Yan Party, while the Right Deputy Censor-in-Chief belonged to the Qingliu faction.
Because the dispute among the three religions involved a large number of people and involved the six ministries of the cabinet and the Inspectorate, there was a major rotation between the Yan Party and the Qingliu factions after a purge.
As Zhang Tingrui spoke, he looked at Yan Shifan with some caution.
The other officials were also unable to accept this sudden decision and looked at Yan Shifan, waiting for a detailed explanation.
First of all, they must know what exactly this Daming Immortal Palace does, and why the emperor and the cabinet's Silijian all joined? If it is beneficial to the court and the people, they will naturally support it.
If it was merely the emperor's personal preference to practice Taoism, then they would have to report it to the emperor no matter what.
The benefits of the reshuffle of high-level power in the six ministries and the Inspectorate in Beijing are reflected here. These newly appointed officials have not yet joined the Qingliu, Yan Party, or the New Party faction.
In their view, the reason why they were directly selected and appointed by the court as officials in the capital, especially important positions such as the Six Ministries and the Inspectorate, was due to the court's keen eye for talent.
Especially some people who are depressed and frustrated but have some talents, when they suddenly have the opportunity to serve the court, they will naturally be willing to sacrifice their lives for it and will not tolerate any sand in their eyes.
It can be said that I am full of passion and am planning to work hard!
What's more, the Ming Dynasty is now in its heyday. In their view, good officials are needed to maintain this hard-won prosperity, or even push it to a more extreme level.
They believe that they are the right person.
However, the fact is that they do not understand at all why they were selected and appointed by the court. Their inner thoughts are still very simple and have not yet formed into three factions.
"Humph," Yan Shifan looked at the people who came up to him and looked at him eagerly, hoping to get an explanation. A sneer appeared in his eyes, "You don't need to know what the Daming Immortal Palace does. I'm notifying you to tell you..."
At this moment, the young cabinet minister Yan Shifan was unprecedentedly powerful. He looked around at the six ministries, the Inspectorate, the Dali Temple, the Tongzhengshisi, the Hanlin Academy, the Imperial Observatory and other "new recruits" and said:
"All you need to know is that the Daming Immortal Palace will no longer be under the jurisdiction of the Six Ministries, the Censorate, the Dali Temple, or any other court. It only belongs to the Emperor!"
"As for the students of Daming Immortal Palace, even though they have no rank, they are not allowed to be managed by anyone other than the two factories and one guard."
"Anything related to the Immortal Mansion must be reported to the cabinet. No one is allowed to interfere, handle, or even supervise the construction of the files without authorization." After saying this, Yan Shifa looked at Xu Fan, who knew everything, and said, "Xu Fan, the supervision of the construction of the Immortal Mansion is now handed over to you."
Hearing this, knowing what the Daming Academy was used for, Xu Fan naturally didn't waste any words and nodded in agreement.
"This matter still requires the cooperation of the Ministry of Revenue..." After all, it is the supervision of the construction of the Immortal Palace, which involves the selection of land and financial expenditure, all of which need to be contacted with the Ministry of Revenue.
Feeling Xu Fan's gaze, Zhao Zhenji raised his eyelids, then looked at Li Zhiyuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue whom he had promoted, and said, "Zhiyuan, you take charge."
When Li Zhiyuan heard that he was named by Zhao Butang, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes and his heart began to beat rapidly.
With his political acumen in officialdom, how could he not hear that Zhao Butang was planning to use him and let him participate in the Daming Immortal Palace.
"Yes, I will cooperate with you!" Li Zhiyuan did not dare to be arrogant and agreed immediately.
The other people in the cabinet looked at Li Zhiyuan, who was fat and bloated and exuded a mercenary aura, and after glancing at Zhao Zhenji, a thoughtful look appeared in their eyes.
Everyone in the cabinet knew that Li Zhiyuan was Zhao Zhenji's man, but no one said anything about it.
Next, all cabinet members will develop their own power and their respective family factions. It is not a big deal to promote some of their own people in advance and let them have appropriate contact with cultivation.
For example, under Prince Yu, there were also people who knew about the imperial court's cultivation of immortals before they entered the cabinet, and had already obtained the cultivation method and been granted spiritual resources, such as Ma Fang. The situation under Prince Jing was similar, and Qi Jiguang also obtained the immortal method.
Soon, the Immortal Palace will be established. The immortal seedlings in the Immortal Palace must be selected from the families of the cabinet members. After that, a certain number of civilians and officials from various factions in the court will also be selected.
Just as Hu Zongxian said before, the immortal seedlings in the Immortal Palace must not be monopolized by the cabinet families.
Otherwise, even if the emperor doesn't say anything, the cabinet will have the final say in the long run, and the emperor will be dissatisfied sooner or later.
Seeing that Zhao Zhenji was blatantly promoting his own people to contact the Daming Immortal Palace, others also began to select people from their own factions to see who was the most suitable.
Yan Shifan's words were extremely overbearing, which made the "new recruits" from the six ministries, the Inspectorate, the Dali Temple and other places all glare at him angrily, but they still maintained their rationality in the end.
Although they are stubborn and full of passion.
But he also knew the reputation of the Yan Party. If he went against Yan Shifan at this time, his career would be hindered.
So everyone could only look at Yan Shifan in anger but not dare to say anything. Then, as if they had thought of something, they all turned their eyes to the Qingliu faction, hoping that Lord Xu and others would speak out.
Although they know in their hearts that since the emperor himself is the principal of the Daming Immortal Palace, it means that even Qingliu cannot stop it, but Yan Shifan is so arrogant and orders us like this. As a righteous person and the mortal enemy of the Yan Party, shouldn't Qingliu speak up?
Can you at least save my face?
After all, we are high-ranking officials of the Six Ministries, the Dali Temple, and the Censorate, and we are at the pinnacle of power in the Ming Dynasty. It is too disgraceful to be scolded like a grandson.
However, this time, no one from the Qingliu faction, including Xu Jie, stood up to uphold justice. Even Gao Gong, who had always been at odds with Yan Shifan, turned a blind eye.
Although Gao Gong was unhappy with Yan Shifan's domineering behavior at the moment, he was still able to distinguish right from wrong and practical interests.
The cabinet has its own world, and under the cabinet is another world. After all, there is a difference between immortals and mortals. Why would he fight with Yan Shifan, who is of the same class as himself, just for a group of mortals, even a group of mortals who have only been in officialdom for a dozen years or even less?
Oh, this is not decent!
Regarding the Ming Immortal Palace, the cabinet's explanation to all officials was Yan Shifan's simple and rough notification. Jiajing naturally would not pay attention to these trivial matters. At this moment, he had already arrived above the capital.
"Swish!" With a wave of his hand, the capital city part of his natal Ming Dynasty was separated in front of him and then enlarged.
At the same time, the big "∞" route that had been drawn on the natal chart with the Emperor's Seal and paved with spiritual veins also appeared.
Jiajing did not rush to take out the seventh-grade spiritual vein and start laying it right away. Instead, he began to arrange the reverse spirit gathering array in advance along the previously arranged laying route and at each node.
The reverse spirit gathering array, as the name suggests, is an array formation. The array diagram, array base and array eye are all arrangements of the reverse spirit gathering array.
The spirit gathering array is designed to gather the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, thereby increasing the concentration of spiritual energy within the coverage area of Julin Town.
The purpose of the reverse spirit gathering formation is to condense the spiritual energy in the area covered by the formation to ensure that it does not overflow.
For those in the late stage of foundation building, it might be a bit difficult to arrange a super-large reverse spirit gathering array, but it is still very easy to arrange a dozen small and medium-sized spirit gathering arrays in succession.
His spiritual consciousness emerged from between his eyebrows, and Jiajing first came to the center of "∞", which was also the sky above the Huagai Hall, the center of the imperial palace.
He held his breath and concentrated, then began to draw the reverse array arrangement, laying down the array eyes and array base in the opposite direction.
An endless amount of spiritual energy emanated from his body, and finally followed his divine consciousness, transforming into neatly arranged array patterns, and falling to a location a hundred meters underground in the Huagai Palace.
Time passed minute by minute, and about an hour later, Jiajing arrived at a location a hundred meters below the northwest corner of the capital.
Because the "∞" spiritual vein is laid diagonally, the center is the Jinshen Hall of the Imperial Palace, and the two corners are the northwest corner and the southeast corner.
Five hours had passed after two reverse spirit gathering arrays were set up in the northwest corner and the southeast corner in the same way.
At this time, the sky had completely darkened. The night sky was clear and the bright moon was hanging high in the sky. The watery moonlight spread down, covering the entire capital city.
However, at this time, the two princes, the cabinet members, and Lu Fang from the Imperial Household Department were all unable to sleep and were waiting quietly.
Because they knew that the emperor had been arranging the spiritual veins all day today. Although they could not help, it would be disrespectful if they fell asleep at this time.
Moreover, they also wanted to see what changes would happen to the capital city after the spiritual veins were laid.
"Huh!" Above the sky, Jiajing looked at the last reverse spirit gathering array that he had set up, and couldn't help but let out a breath, saying, "This is really not an easy job."
The arrangement of this reverse spirit gathering array mainly consumes spiritual consciousness. As for spiritual energy, he has the spiritual source, so he doesn't have to worry about it.
"Seventh-grade spiritual vein, I hope it won't disappoint me!" Jiajing said secretly while sitting cross-legged on a long sword, looking at the scroll in his hand.
Well, this flying sword was also purchased by him from Sifang City. It is not a famous sword, but just an ordinary low-grade magic weapon, which can be used for flying. It only costs a few dozen taels of spiritual energy.
Jiajing did not rush to take out the spiritual vein and start laying it, but sat cross-legged and began to meditate to restore his strength.
Laying down spiritual veins would also consume a large amount of spiritual awareness and spiritual energy. He had to restore himself to his peak state to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
Time passed minute by minute, and when a red sun rose in the east and the warm orange sunlight wrapped around his body, Jiajing recovered to his peak state and slowly opened his eyes.
Without hesitation, Jiajing stood up and the flying sword carried him into the Huagai Palace. As for the eunuchs, palace maids and guards around him, they had been cleared out early by people arranged by Lu Fang.
Taking out the Five Elements Earth Escape Talisman and applying it on his body, Jiajing's body slowly moved down. At the same time, his natal Ming also appeared in front of him, marking his location. It came to a hundred meters away and reached the predetermined location.
“This is it!” Looking at his natal chart, standing in the middle of “∞”, Jiajing took a deep breath and used his spiritual sense to open the scroll that Liu Quan had given him, which sealed the seventh-grade spiritual vein.
"Wow!" Almost at the moment when the scroll was pulled open, the scroll was torn apart, and then the entire scroll turned into a transparent state, and ripples appeared on the surface. Then, there was an extremely violent storm of spiritual energy, no, to be precise, a thick and viscous transparent liquid, which rushed straight to Jiajing's face. Even though Jiajing was in the late stage of foundation building, he was blown away by this violent spiritual source without any warning.
Fortunately, a space of more than ten meters around his body was cleared, otherwise he would have had to endure this blow underground!
"Not good!" Jiajing's face changed as he looked at the spiritual source that was rushing straight to the ground and at the same time violently rushing in all directions a hundred meters underground, as well as the scene that seemed like a crack in space, with something trying to come out of the torn hole.
At the moment, this violent transparent liquid is the spiritual source, and the spiritual vein itself has not yet appeared. However, the unparalleled power contained in it is so great that even Jiajing can feel a sense of pressure.
"Boom!" The terrifying spiritual source storm rushed straight to the ground in the blink of an eye, and of course it was still going deeper underground a hundred meters below.
The moment the spiritual source broke through the ground, everything in the Huagai Hall was instantly destroyed by the majestic spiritual energy. Then the spiritual source broke through the roof of the hall and rushed straight into the sky.
"Boom!" At this moment, the space was trembling slightly, as if it was stunned invisibly, and fell into a momentary stagnation, followed by a greater energy riot.
At the same time, this sudden and terrifying movement naturally could not be concealed from everyone in the palace.
"What is that?!" The eunuchs, palace maids, and patrolling guards who were sweeping around the Fengtian Palace all saw at this moment the terrifying transparent 'water wave' rising into the sky.
However, before the eunuch could shout out, a terrifying energy followed, blowing everyone away and causing them to faint.
As for the Huagai Hall, one of the three main halls, it collapsed instantly and turned into ruins. Even the Fengtian Hall and Shenjin Hall in front and behind it were affected at this moment.
"Boom!" The horrifying sound of collapse attracted the attention of countless people. Of course, the energy that swept out caused countless people to be affected.
Inside the Wenhua Hall.
Officials from the Six Ministries, the Inspectorate, the Dali Temple, the Imperial Observatory and other departments who were qualified to attend court were now discussing politics fiercely.
The Ministry of Rites was discussing the tributes of various countries, as well as the diplomatic relations between the Ming Dynasty and its vassal states. The Ministry of War was wrangling with the Ministry of Revenue, demanding funding. Now that the New Party was composed of military personnel, and the military had just destroyed a country, it could be said that the new nobles were in high spirits.
This sentence naturally caused dissatisfaction among other departments.
The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for the assessment of local officials, the appointment and removal of officials, and the imperial examinations. Of course, the most important thing is that the reform has begun, and they have to re-formulate technology for the next four years.
After all, four years later, the national policy of reform had to show results, and the best acceptance result was the first imperial examination after the reform.
In short, as Qisi's reforms began, the six ministries were busy all day long and there were endless quarrels every day.
They could be said to not care at all that the cabinet elders and the two princes did not come today.
"No, there is no war in our Ming Dynasty right now. Why does your Ministry of War need so many military supplies?" Li Zhiyuan, who is now responsible for helping Zhao Zhenji and handling all matters of the Ministry of Revenue, waved his hand and stared at the Minister of War Li Chengwu with his round eyes.
"Why should I explain to you what my Ministry of War does?" Minister of War Li Chengwu frowned and said coldly with his hands behind his back.
The three elders of the New Party in the cabinet are all bigwigs in the military. As the Minister of War, he is not afraid of the Ministry of Revenue at all. What's more, the person in front of him is just a lucky guy chosen by Zhao Butang.
Minister? He is just a third-rank official. How dare you show your teeth?
"You!" Li Zhiyuan was immediately furious when being scolded by Li Chengwu, a soldier, in front of so many colleagues.
When he turned around, he found that everyone was looking at him as if he was laughing at a joke. The key point was that the ones who were laughing at him were all Shangshu.
Well, even the ministers are the same.
How could he not know that this group of people looked down on him, exercising the power of a minister with the position of an assistant minister? Of course, what these people present could not stand even more was his performance in the previous dispute among the three religions.
After all, all those who had participated in the dispute among the three religions and impeached Yan Song and his son together with Zhang Shenxing had been dealt with.
Those who should be demoted were demoted, those who should be exiled were exiled, and those who should be executed were executed. Only I was clearly involved in the core plan, but not only was I not punished, but I was promoted all the way.
The reason for this, of course, was because he had connected with Zhao Zhenji and Zhao Butang.
This group of people had been frustrated before, so naturally they looked down on me, their relative.
In their opinion, the reason they had not been successful before was because they had too many people with connections like themselves.
"You guys!" Li Zhiyuan never thought that with his tactfulness, he could chat and laugh with Hai Rui, the stubborn and unyielding man known as Hai Bijia, and even make Hai Rui remember him. However, in the capital city, a place where human relationships and official courtesy are the most important, he was ostracized.
Logically speaking, I am a person with a background, and the backer behind me is cabinet veteran Zhao Butang. Not only do these people not intend to curry favor with me and make friends with me, but they also exclude me?
It’s incredible and hard to imagine when I tell you this!
"New recruits, naive and stupid!" Li Zhiyuan was so angry that he could only look at everyone with hatred, flicked his sleeves, and finally could only curse a few words in his heart.
Well, he didn't dare to curse out loud, because Li Chengwu used to lead troops to fight in the Liaodong Commandery.
The barbarians of Liaodong have been fighting and dealing with the Jianzhou Jurchens for many years, and he was really afraid that these barbarians would beat him.
"Look at me again?" Seeing that Li Zhiyuan still dared to glare at him, Li Chengwu opened his eyes angrily, pointed at Li Zhiyuan, and was ready to take action.
"Li Chengwu, don't go too far!" Li Zhiyuan had already planned to back down, but he didn't expect that this barbarian would actually come up to him. He immediately felt humiliated, and his fair, fat face turned red.
"Minister Li, forget it, forget it. We are officials in the same dynasty, why bother..." At this time, someone stepped forward to smooth things over.
Bullying, bullying Li Zhiyuan is fine, but if Li Chengwu really beats up a minister, that would be real fun.
Although they despised people like Li Zhiyuan who were flatterers and relied on nepotism to get to the top, they had to admit that if they beat Li Zhiyuan today, it would be equivalent to slapping Zhao Butang in the face.
This group of people have just arrived in Beijing and have not yet taken sides. They have no connections with the cabinet, so if something goes wrong they will be sent out.
"I won't..." Li Chengwu was about to say something, but the next moment something strange happened. The terrifying energy directly collapsed the wall, and everyone felt an irresistible force coming.
"Ah!!!" Immediately, screams were heard, and all the officials, including Li Chengwu and Li Zhiyuan, were kicked out of the door and thrown heavily outside the hall.
Of course, there are also other surrounding walls.
"Hiss!" Li Zhiyuan, who was covered in dust, sat up from the ground with a grimacing pain. However, before he could look back to see what was going on, he heard a scream in a Dachengshan accent, "Oh my god, what is that?"
All the officials who heard the noise raised their heads and looked towards the northwest.
However, the next moment, they were all shocked by the shocking scene, stunned and unable to recover for a long time.
I saw a terrifying transparent and sticky water tornado that was two or three times thicker than a water tank rising into the sky and straight into the clouds.
"Boom!" The sky, which was originally clear, suddenly rose into the sky because of this horrible and strange tornado that looked like water but was not water.
The sky was gloomy, with angry clouds rolling and flashes of thunder from time to time, like a doomsday scene.
The next moment, heavy rain came down.
But as the rain falls, it is accompanied by bursts of refreshing fragrance!
At this moment, heavy rain covered the entire capital city!
"That's... the direction of the Huagai Palace!!!"
The strong Li Chengwu patted the dust off his face, and without thinking too much, he stood up and rushed towards Zuo Shunmen. When others saw this, they also didn't have time to think too much and followed.
Li Zhiyuan sat on the ground in a daze for a while, and then he shuddered all over. He knew more than others. The moment he saw this strange water tornado, he immediately realized that it must be related to the immortals!
Without time to think, Li Zhiyuan got up and rushed forward.
Lu Fang, who had been waiting in the West Garden at this time, naturally saw the accident happening in the direction of Huagai Palace at the first time.
"Oh no! The master has had an accident!" Seeing this scene, Lu Fang's pupils suddenly shrank, and he rushed over without thinking too much. However, at this moment, Jiajing's spiritual voice suddenly rang in his mind, "Everyone, come to Huagai Palace and help me!"
Yanfu.
Yan Song, Yan Shifan, Yan Shaoting and Hu Zongxian, who also witnessed the scene, discovered the sudden change in the palace at the first moment.
"Dad!" Yan Shifan pointed in the direction of the Huagai Palace, the terrifying, strange tornado rising into the sky, and the rain full of spiritual energy rushing down, and exclaimed: "Something happened!"
Seeing this scene, Yan Song's body trembled. He widened his eyes and quickly took a few steps forward, staring in the direction of the imperial palace. His face was full of tension and there was deep worry in his eyes.
Hu Zongxian, who was standing by, also had his eyes wide open, his breathing rapid, and his brain working rapidly.
During this year, he has also started practicing. Although he has not yet broken through the first level of Qi training, he is at least a cultivator.
Naturally, one can feel the rich spiritual energy that is rapidly surging between heaven and earth.
"What should we do?!" Yan Shifan asked.
"Everyone, come to Huagai Palace and help me!" At this moment, Jiajing's telepathic voice sounded in the ears of several people at the same time.
Yan Song's body trembled, and without time to think, he turned around abruptly. At this moment, he no longer looked old as usual. He stared at Hu Zongxian in a hurried tone and said:
"Ruzhen, listen carefully! Go find Wang Chonggu and Yu Dayou now and have the Five Cities Army and the Shenji Camp blockade the capital immediately. All citizens are not allowed to go out. Anyone who disobeys the order... will be killed!"
"As for those spies from various countries in the city, deal with them all, leaving no one alive!" After saying that, Yan Song stopped talking nonsense and directly said to Yan Shifan and his grandson Yan Shaoting, who had already broken through to the first level of Qi training:
"Shifan, Shaoting, let's go!"
"Yes!" After saying that, the three generations of the Yan family, grandparents and grandchildren, strode out and headed straight for the direction of the imperial palace.
Of course, at this moment, it was not only Yan Song and his two grandchildren who rushed to the palace as soon as they received Jiajing's order.
At Xu Jie's mansion, there were Xu Jie and his son; at Gao Gong's mansion, there was Gao Gong; at Zhang Juzheng's mansion, there was Zhang Juzheng; at Zhao Zhenji's mansion, there was Zhao Zhenji.
There are also Prince Yu’s Mansion, Prince Jing’s Mansion, and the Two Princes’ Mansion.
At this moment, the first batch of immortal cultivators in the Ming Dynasty all went out, not caring about anything else, nor paying attention to the reactions of passers-by. They concentrated on practicing the "Qi Guiding Jue" and rushed towards the palace with spiritual energy infused into their legs.
Outside Fengtian Hall.
Dozens of eunuchs wearing purple robes and cloaks appeared early and stopped the officials who wanted to rush to the Huagai Palace.
"Get out of the way!" Li Chengwu looked at these eunuchs dressed strangely and shouted, "I am the Minister of War. Something happened in the Huagai Palace. We have the obligation to go and check it out..."
"Anyone who enters without permission..." The one who spoke was a tall and thin chief eunuch. When he looked up, a cold light flashed in his cold eyes under the hood, "Kill!"
Seeing these dozens of purple-robed eunuchs standing like a wall to block them, all the officials were suddenly shocked.
They were surprised that the chief eunuch dared to openly threaten a Minister of War. They were also surprised at these eunuchs they had never seen before. Of course, they were even more surprised that they had never seen these eunuchs before.
Just when they were rushing towards the Huagai Palace, they were stopped by these eunuchs who appeared like ghosts in the square outside the Fengtian Palace.
Looking at these young eunuchs wearing hoods and with cold expressions, who were not very old, the senior officials of the six ministries had no doubt that they dared to break in by force, fearing that they would be beheaded in the next moment!
Shocked, my scalp tingles, and my whole body feels cold!
Is this still the imperial court they are familiar with? At this moment, the officials looked at the palace they often visited and felt that it was extremely strange.
The unfamiliarity makes people feel cold in their hearts. How much has the court, or the emperor, hidden from them?
"Hoo, hoo, hoo!" At this moment, everyone suddenly heard a noise behind them, and then subconsciously looked back.
The next moment, everyone lost their composure. For a moment, they felt dizzy and thought they had seen it wrong!
I saw that all the elders of the cabinet, except for the three elders of the New Party, were there, including Elder Yan.
No, that’s not the point. The point is that they were actually running here, and their speed was incredibly fast!
"Swoosh!" Yan Song and his son, who had the strongest cultivation, and Xu Jie rushed forward, and the eunuchs did not stop them at all.
"Just now, the one walking so fast was... Elder Yan?" Someone asked hesitantly, "Didn't they say he's old?"
"..."
