Chapter 2823: Niangniang's words, what a promise?

At this time, several fierce ministers couldn't help it anymore, and stepped forward and said, "Your Royal Concubine, Your Highness! We are court officials, not slaves. It is okay to keep us here to deal with these trivial matters. endure!"
As soon as they saw someone starting, the people behind immediately stood up.
"Yes, we are courtiers, not slaves."
"Treat us like this, without treating us ministers as human beings!"
"We won't do it anymore!"
Seeing the crowd rioting again, Zhu Chengxuan was a bit softhearted towards them. At this time, he stepped forward and stood in front of Nan Yan. He said in a deep voice, "What are you going to do? Do you want to rebel?"
When he saw him stand up, some courtiers hesitated again.
After all, the killing of Ge Yunli by Wei Wangzhang three days ago is still vivid, and now he is like this, I am afraid that he will have to do something with courtiers again.
Yan Gu looked at Zhu Chengxuan and said bitterly: "His Royal Highness, does your Highness still have to do something to the old officials?"
"you guys--"
Just when Zhu Chengxuan was almost angered by them, Nan Yan took a step forward.
Although her face was a bit heavy, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she looked like she was smiling, but the smile made people shudder.
"Everyone, don't be impulsive."
She said, looking at Yan Gu, and said slowly: "Master Yan, His Royal Highness Wei just wants to persuade everyone to calm down. As a three-dynasty veteran, Master Yan served more than one emperor, how could he label Wei Wang like this? ?"
"..."
Yan Gu was startled.
He did say the sentence just now to Wang Wei and everyone on purpose, so that he could use a hat to press him down.
But the imperial concubine's words made her face blush.
Nan Yan said calmly: "My palace knows that you all have some dissatisfaction in your heart. However, this palace and His Royal Highness Wei Wang kept you in the palace, it is also for everyone's safety."
"Safety?"
Someone in the crowd said: "There is nothing in the city, what is the danger?"
"On the contrary, we stay in the palace, life and death are unknown, the family is worried about death!"
"It's dangerous to stay in the palace."
Nan Yan glanced at them coldly, and Zhu Chengxuan frowned on the side, and whispered, "Evening concubine, let me--"
Nan Yan gently shook his head at him, motioning him not to be impulsive.
Just now, King Wei was obviously worried that these courtiers would begin to attack them in groups, just like what Ge Yunli did a few days ago. However, the two things are also different. At that time, Ge Yunli was attacking the imperial concubine and provoking anger to fish in troubled waters. But now, they locked the courtiers in the palace for three days. It is true that, as Yan Gu said, there was no such thing in previous dynasties. Precedent.
They are unreasonable.
If you kill courtiers again at this time, it will really arouse their injustice-people are afraid of death, but there are also literati who are not afraid of death. If they arouse such a mentality, the situation will be true. It's difficult.
At this time, be soft.
So Nan Yan said: "Everyone, this palace understands your thoughts. However, it is dark now, the palace gates are closed, and the nine doors inside and outside have been closed long ago, and there is even a curfew in the capital. If you let you go now Going out of the palace will inevitably cause riots, and the soldiers on guard will not care who you are. If something goes wrong, isn't it a loss to the court?"
When she said this, it was as if these courtiers would be killed by mistake when they left the palace.
Everyone hesitated again.
Then Nan Yan smiled and said, "So, I promise you that I will let you out of the palace tomorrow."
"..."
"It's just that tonight, everyone is wronged and stay here."
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you.
In the end, he still said with a stern reason: "What is the empress do you say?"
Nan Yan said, "Of course."
Yan Gu said: "Then, good. Tomorrow morning, as soon as the palace gate opens, we will leave the palace and go home. I hope the empress will not break her promise."
"of course,"
Nan Yan smiled and said, "Then, let's say it's settled? If you have nothing to do tonight, you might as well take care of these trivial matters. You don't have to go to court tomorrow, everyone, go home and rest for two days. ."
When everyone heard her saying this, they were comforted. Everyone walked back to the table and sat down. Listening to the blessing also took people with them, and distributed the trivial paperwork to everyone.
At this time, Zhu Chengxuan walked behind Nan Yan.
He whispered: "Manny, do you really want them to go back tomorrow? But General Luo didn't say that tonight it might be—"
South flue: "My palace knows."
"..."
"If something happened as he said, then they want to go back tomorrow, but they dare not leave."
Zhu Chengxuan glanced at everyone and nodded gently.


At the same time, under the dark night sky, Luo Qi was standing on the top of the tower together, and the bitter wind howled, making him frown.
However, he couldn't leave a step.
Inside the gate of the city wall, all the ordinary people were crowded downstairs, and now hundreds of people have gathered.
Although the imperial city has announced a curfew long ago, none of these people will retreat tonight. They are also worried that the officers and soldiers forcing the people to go home will cause civil chaos in advance, so they can't do it casually.
These people are right at the gate of the city and have been guarding.
In summer nights, I don't want the cold wind in winter. These people gather at the gate of the city, and they continue to shout loudly, as if they are saying that if the gate is not opened tomorrow, they will try to force something.
There are many monks in the crowd.
Seeing them like this, Luo Qi frowned.
What he worries most is not these people, but outside the city gate separated by a wall.
Today's night is very deep, and there is not even a single star in the sky.
Since during the day, they found a cloud of smoke and dust on the other side of the mountain, until the sun set, everything around was plunged into darkness, and they never saw any movement.
Of course, not without.
It is very possible that the other party will not let them see, and they are not unfamiliar with such things as marching in the dark. It is very likely that the night attack will follow.
That's why he asked the court to mobilize a large number of people to guard the city gate.
The night wind howled, and the sound of the wind seemed to carry a little restlessness, which made everyone's mind uneasy.
Luo Qi said in the same way: "If the order is passed on, everyone will not be able to rest tonight, even if it is a nap, give me a nap with one eye open!"
"Yes!"
After the order was passed down, the soldiers who defended the city were miserable, but there was no way. Everyone knew that the emperor was in a coma and the situation in the city was unstable. If the people of the country were not stupid, they would definitely take this opportunity to attack the country.
So, one by one they held their swords in their arms, or sat in the corner, or leaned against the wall.
