In the Liangyi Hall of the Imperial City, His Majesty Li Er was furious when he learned that the students had actually ran to the Zhuque Gate to sit quietly and petition, and he was instantly furious!

"Bastard! These are the students trained by my Imperial College? These are the elites of my Tang Dynasty. They don't distinguish right from wrong, follow the crowd, and are extremely stupid! Let them sit, and I want to see when they can sit!"

His Majesty Li Er has a firm attitude and must not compromise with these stupid students. Don’t say that the prince’s anger to the teacher is false. Even if it is true, how could he be controlled by a few scholars as a dignified emperor?

However, what His Majesty Li Er did not expect was that these students were really persevering. They went to the front of the Zhuque Gate in the morning when the sun was just angry, and were still sitting there when the sun was about to set.

Even at noon, many people fainted from the scorching sun, and they were still persevering.

"Your Majesty, you cannot let these students who are being used continue like this, otherwise, I may have affected places outside Chang'an after a long time!"

In Liangyi Palace, Changsun Wuji said to His Majesty Li Er with a worried look on his face.

His Majesty Li Er said with a pale face: "Is Qingque also involved in this matter?"

Dugu Yifang said: "Yes, it was the people under the King of Shu who delivered the letter to Li Gang and Chai Shao!"

"Where is the Dou family?"

"Dou Xiaode is indeed related to the murder case of the Prince's Restaurant, and he himself admitted that he wanted to use this to blame the Prince!"

“Who else is involved?”

"Almost all of those people, including the Dou family, participated!"

"Okay, very good! I'm still too kind to them! Do you really think I can't do anything to them?"

Changsun Wuji spoke again: "Your Majesty, they are fake to the prince, but they are really targeting His Majesty's reorganization of merchants all over the world. The "Patent Act" proposed by the Prince and the Ministry of Commerce have greatly damaged the interests of those people, especially the matter of levying commercial tax after the establishment of the Ministry of Commerce. Is it..."

"It's impossible! Commercial tax matters are imperative!" His Majesty Li Er said decisively.

"Then now..."

"Hmph, they all underestimated me too much, and they were too smart... Let them make trouble, and in a few days I will let them know that the prince is not something they can defeat if they want to!"

......

In a blink of an eye, three days passed again, and the number of people sitting in front of Zhuque Gate and petitioning was not only not reduced, but also more.

In the past three days, more students joined the meditation crowd, and many people from Shilin joined in. Even some officials who worked in the court joined the meditation petition!

However, what made these people a little desperate was that even though nearly ten thousand people had gathered in front of Zhuque Gate, His Majesty Li Er still ignored them!

Just outside these people sitting quietly, among the onlookers, a few of them looked at the closed Zhuque Gate and the thousands of soldiers who were fully armed and waiting for the troops in front of the gate, whispering.

"It's been the third day, why is there still no movement?"

"Yes, if Li Shimin lets things go so far, aren't he afraid of causing turmoil among all the scholars in the world?"

"The memorials played by various places were all suppressed by Li Shimin and ignored them!"

"What the hell is he trying to do? Do you really have to fight me to the death?"

"It shouldn't be. Li Shimin pays attention to his reputation the most. Now he ignores it, because our actions have not pushed him into a desperate situation! It's time to take them a step further!"

"Yeah, I agree!"

"I have no objection!"

...

Time entered the fourth day of the scholars' sitting in the quiet petition. At noon, the sun was in the sky. Suddenly, a scholar suddenly stood up. In the shocked expression of the onlookers and soldiers, the scholar quickly ran to the soldiers who were blocking the Zhuque Gate, knelt on the ground in the direction of the palace, shouted at the top of his lungs: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why don't you see us? Our advice is all from public intention. I can't bear to see my Tang Dynasty fall into the hands of a ruthless and unrighteous person, and I can't bear to have Your Majesty's reputation destroyed by the prince for the rest of your life, Your Majesty!"

The behavior of this scholar immediately caused a chain reaction. As soon as he finished speaking, several more scholars ran to him and shouted that they wanted to see His Majesty Li Er and advise His Majesty Li Er!

Not long afterwards, nearly 10,000 people present stood up and began to approach the soldiers!

"Back, back! Otherwise, don't blame us for being polite!"

"We want to see Your Majesty, we want to see Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty can you see me just by saying that you can see me? Go back, otherwise you will be punished as the crime of attacking the forbidden palace!"

"If you have the ability, you kill me. I don't believe that Your Majesty has no expression on our actions? It must be that you Li Chengqian's lackeys deliberately deceived him, which made Your Majesty not know the situation!"

"Yes, you must be colluding with the prince and deliberately deceiving Your Majesty, you lackeys!"

I don’t know who called it, but in short, I was just shouting to see His Majesty Li Er’s men, but suddenly began to curse the soldiers blocking them, and blamed the reason why His Majesty Li Er’s disappearance on the soldiers colluding with Li Chengqian and deceiving His Majesty Li Er!

The situation became even more tense in an instant, and the soldiers were already pushing each other!

"Ah, you actually dare to use the knife..."

Suddenly, a shrill scream sounded... In this case, any movement would completely lose control of the scene, let alone such shouts?

So, in an instant, the people behind the crowd did not see the specific situation in front at all, and even the people in the front row were a little confused, so the crowd rushed towards the soldiers!

"Kill these lackeys and go to the palace to see Your Majesty!"

"Do you dare to hurt others? Do you really think we are just scholars?"

"Run away from the guards and go into the palace to advise Your Majesty!"

The scene was completely chaotic. If the soldiers had not received the order of death before and had not received the order from their superiors, they would never have to attack these scholars. Otherwise, how could these unarmed scholars have to let the fully armed soldiers retreat step by step... However, even if the soldiers in the front row were blocked with shields, they were still injured by people with stones, which made these elite soldiers extremely frustrated!

Just as the soldiers retreated to the Zhuque Gate, they had no choice but to retreat, and were anxiously waiting for the order to go up the peak, suddenly the sound of horse hooves came from behind the crowd.

The scholars may not care, but these soldiers and some of the people who had experienced wars had already heard that this was the movement of the brigade of cavalry running here!

Sure enough, as the sound of horse hooves gradually became clear, the deafening shout also sounded...

"Your Majesty has an order, everyone will stop immediately and wait for the deceased, otherwise... there will be no mercy to kill!"

"Your Majesty has an order... Otherwise, there will be no mercy to kill!"

"Kill without mercy..."

The scholars who were already in an excited state and almost lost their minds were stunned with murderous shouts! First, behind the crowd, the people near the cavalry stopped moving forward, turned their heads and looked back, and then they were like wheat waves, layer by layer, and everyone turned their heads and looked behind them!
Chapter completed!
