Outside the palace of the Xia Kingdom, the civil and military officials led by the left and right prime ministers all knelt on the ground tremblingly, even if the snow on the ground had long been shoveled, such a cold day, these pampered ministers still couldn't stand it, especially the older ministers, vaguely, they all knew why they would be punished, but even if they wanted to admit their mistakes, they couldn't help it, His Majesty the Emperor didn't know when he could remember their existence.

"Lu Xiang!"

The left phase Lu Shuren was old, the first one could not bear it, the trembling body almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, the right phase Lan Yunzen's eyes were quick, and he took the lead to help him: "Come, move a stool over, and send someone to report to Your Majesty by the way, please Your Majesty to stop your anger."

"Yes."

The left and right prime ministers are the head of a hundred officials, and their status in the Xia Kingdom is still very high, no one dares not listen to his orders, the guard at the gate of the palace moved a chair, and Lan Yunchan personally helped him to sit down: "Lu Xiang, take a break first, just drink a bowl of ginger soup later."

"Yun Chan, did Ben Xiang do something wrong?"

Lu Shuren, who was slumped in the chair, grabbed his wrist with his backhand, how did the Qin Kingdom treat their prince back then? If it weren't for Xiao Wei and King Qingping, their emperor would have gone with the first prince a long time ago, and even if he didn't deliberately inquire over the years, he could guess what kind of life the emperor lived in the Qin Kingdom, and why should the people of the Qin Kingdom be their empress? Daxia is full of talents, the concubines and daughters of the major families are top-notch in terms of Qinqi calligraphy and painting, and their personality, far better than that Shen Liang, he is not worthy of their emperor, not worthy of being an empress, it is more than enough to give him a concubine, but why should the emperor protect him? Didn't he hate the Qin Kingdom?

"Lu Xiang, as the left prime minister of the Great Xia Dynasty, you are not wrong, the Qin Kingdom does have a deep blood feud with my Xia Kingdom, but..."

"But what? What else is there to do? Since you also agree, then you will play with the old man to ask Your Majesty later, for the sake of the two princes, canonize Shen Liang as a concubine.

Without waiting for him to finish, Lu Shuren glared and said excitedly, his empress of the Great Xia Dynasty definitely cannot be from the Qin Kingdom.

"Sorry, Lu Xiang, this can't be the case."

Lan Yunchan became the right chancellor of Xia Guo at a young age and only in his twenties, an extremely powerful minister, obviously not the kind of person who will follow the flow, no matter how dissatisfied Lu Shuren is, he still withdrew his body and knelt back again, he had previously accompanied them to make trouble, and he already understood His Majesty's intentions, and then he will not make trouble with them again anyway, the emperor is not the kind of person who will be arbitrarily manipulated by hundreds of officials, if they don't notice this earlier, Next, I am afraid that I will hurt the monarch and the peace.

Imperial Palace, Imperial Study

Room "Are you dead?"

Under the leadership of Pei Yuanfeng and Chu Li, Pei Yuanxian finished visiting the entire front hall, and when he turned into the imperial study, he happened to meet the guards who came to pay the news, and pulled Pei Yuanxian who was sitting on the dragon chair with Shen Liang and lifted his mouth lazily, extremely cool!

"No, Lan Xiangwang His Majesty can stop his anger."

The guard in charge of the report subconsciously froze in his heart, Lu Xiang is also an auxiliary minister no matter what, the emperor's reaction is too terrifying, it seems that they will all have to be careful in the future, the emperor is not as benevolent as they think.

"Then go ahead... Forget it, let them all roll in. Originally, Pei Yuanxian wanted them to continue to kneel, who knew that Shen Liang quietly pulled his clothes, his sword eyebrows were almost undetectable, and his mouth changed.

"Yes."

After the guards retreated, Pei Yuanxian turned his head and glared at his queen with dissatisfaction: "What for?" They embarrass you in public, and you forgive them like that? 

The emperor returned to the palace, in this case, the group of courtiers welcomed each other, should wait for the emperor to return to the palace together, but before the civil and military officials only waited for him, the emperor to return to the palace, as if he did not put the coolness in his eyes, he would not feel that they were negligent, you know, those people are all mixed up in the court, the top old fox, underestimated the coolness so far, shouldn't he punish them?

"Do I look like such a kind person? Okay, let's hear what they have to say. Raising his eyebrows and glaring at him angrily, Shen Liang smiled indifferently, saying that forgiveness is not enough, he can understand the thoughts of the ministers of Xia Country, if it is only because of the hatred of Xia Qin and the two countries, he doesn't think there is anything, at least they are loyal to the army and serve the country, right? Besides, it was impossible for him to be Pei Yuanxian's empress because of their opposition, but if some people took this opportunity to hide something else, then he would not be polite to them.

"What's so nice to hear."

Think with your ass and know what they will say, Pei Yuanxian is still unhappy, his daughter-in-law and children he dare not ignore, he can't wait to be careful on his chest on weekdays, what are they, dare to embarrass him in public, it's really beautiful for them.

"Mistress, what Liang Liang said is extremely true, you are a little bit of a protector."

Pei Yuanfeng, who was sitting below, shook his head helplessly, before, he was always afraid that he would be alone and spend the rest of his life alone, but now that he has a daughter-in-law, his son has two at once, but his temperament, how can it not change at all.

"My queen, who am I not protecting?"

But Pei Yuanxian also had his own persistence, and said suspiciously: "Boss, in recent years, you haven't used the balance court to stuff people into my harem, right?" After coming back for so long, he finally remembered it.

"You don't know what your nature is?"

If he dares to stuff him without a word, he must not kill them all one by one? If they don't get it, there will also be a gap between their brothers and sisters.

It turned out that the senior brother was still very reliable, and Pei Yuanxian finally smiled reassuringly: "That's good, if you dare to stuff me indiscriminately, I'll let Tianshu pack all of them and send them to your Xiayang Royal Mansion later."

"Eh..."

Pei Yuanfeng's brain is black, this one by one, all of them have daughters-in-law and no humanity, right? Fortunately, he didn't do that, otherwise he wouldn't be able to kneel on the washboard when he went back tonight? The princess of his family is notoriously fierce.

"Third brother, don't say this in front of your sister-in-law, she is fierce."

In order to deepen the authenticity of his words, Chu Li also shrunk his neck in cooperation, thinking that he had suffered a lot at the hands of his sister-in-law.

"Oh?"

Raising his eyebrows, Pei Yuanxian was very interested, even Shen Liang looked over curiously, he thought that a real man like the eldest brother should find a gentle and virtuous lady who knew how to read.

"What are you talking about?"

Glaring at Lao Wu without anger, Pei Yuanfeng slowly smiled and said, "The princess is not fierce, she just loves me too much." Well, this is true love.

Chu Li said that he was powerless, and Pei Yuanxian did not ask again: "I will bring my sister-in-law to the palace to gather another day, and I have never seen her." 

"Good."

"Your Majesty, the ministers have arrived."

At the same time that Pei Yuanfeng nodded, a small eunuch ran in, and the smile on Pei Yuanfeng's face disappeared instantly: "Xuan."

"Yes."

The little eunuch did not dare to raise his head, Bi respectfully retreated, and Shen Liang thought of getting up, Pei YuanBut Yan held him down: "No, what is yours is yours, and you can sit as I can." A dragon chair is just a dragon chair, not even a strand of his cool hair can compare.

"Hmm."

Shen Liang did not insist anymore, calmly sat on the dragon chair, led the civil and military officials into the imperial study room Lu Shuren immediately blew his beard and glared when he saw this, and in his heart gave Shen Liang a crime of calamity to the country demon Ji, the rest of the ministers saw a red dress, the extraordinary Shen Liang and the emperor sat side by side on the dragon chair, their faces were a little not good-looking, but they were punished for kneeling for nearly an hour just now, and no one dared to be the first to jump out as the first bird.

"Ministers and others knock on Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Under the leadership of the left and right prime ministers, hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down in unison, and the sound of three hoorays resounded neatly and uniformly throughout the imperial study, Pei Yuanxian leaned sideways, lazily leaning on the dragon chair: "It seems that the punishment just now was not enough, is it necessary to gouge your eyes so that you can see that the queen of Xu is still sitting here?"

Empress and concubine are different, whether he, the emperor is present or not, they must greet him.

"..."

Lu Xiang looked up at them, his eyes full of disapproval, but Lan Yunchan leaned over and said, "The minister knocks on the queen, the queen Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

"Empress Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

Seeing this, the officials led by him all leaned over, but the ministers led by Lu Xiang all insisted, they had not seen Shen Liang before, simply as a member of the Qin country, they opposed him, and now seeing that he was not only too charming, but also had no sense of proportion, and the big horn was sitting on the dragon chair, they were even less likely to agree.

"You don't have to be polite, flatten, give a seat!"

Shen Liang waved his hand, his expression and tone were indifferent, but it invisibly gave people a strong sense of distance, which was an aura unique to people who held high positions all year round, and they would not lose to their emperor in the slightest.

"Thank you Queen!"

It stands to reason that without the emperor's orders, they shouldn't have gotten up, but Lan Yunchan felt that listening to the empress was right, didn't he see that His Majesty's face had eased a lot?

Under his leadership, some ministers got up and sat down on the side after thanking him, Lan Yunchan subconsciously left the first place, which was reserved for Lu Shuren, although he was also the prime minister, the left prime minister was more noble than the right prime minister, he did not dare to expect that the two kings on the opposite side would give him a seat.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to say."

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming more and more embarrassing, the emperor did not have any intention of letting them get up, and the empress did not mean to stick his hot face to their cold asses, Lu Shuren straightened his back and clasped his hands into fists.

"Say."

Pei Yuanxian didn't even look at him, and then beckoned to the palace people waiting next to him: "Go, bring something to eat, the queen doesn't like small snacks, preferably fruits or stewed things."

"Yes."

The palace people have long seen that he has not forgotten the thoughtfulness of the queen all the way, and where he dares to be half disrespectful, he trotted out as soon as he turned around.

Is it time to say those?

Lu Shuren's anger rose upward, and the emperor was simply confused by the demon, and he was too unruly.

"Your Majesty, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person is the same reason for choosing a queen, the queen's mother is the mother of a country, he does not need to be good-looking, nor does he need to be in good shape, but he must be of a prominent background, knowledgeable, virtuous and benevolent, able to assist the emperor to manage the six palaces, balance the wife, and educate the prince!" With all due respect, Shen Gongzi is not suitable for the future, I hope His Majesty thinks twice! Looking up at him and speaking, Lu Shuren bowed his head.

"The minister seconded!"

The hundreds of officials kneeling on the ground with him unanimously kowtowed and seconded, the queen is different from the concubines, there can be many concubines, but the queen can only have one, and the child he gave birth to is very likely to become the next monarch, Shen Liang is a demon at a glance, and he is a Qin countryman, why take on this big task? As long as the emperor is willing, Xia Guo has a famous lady, and his concubines are for him to choose.
