Not only did the emperor get a little angry when he heard the Northern Qi envoy's words, but even Shen Yi couldn't help but feel a little angry.
It's really a bit too arrogant.
It stands to reason that when the envoy arrived in the territory of Chen State, he should at least shrink his tail. However, this man not only showed no intention of bowing his head but also became more arrogant.
He can even say the words "Great Emperor"!
The emperor looked ugly and said nothing.
Master Shen was about to speak when he heard the Northern Qi envoy bow his head slightly to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, our great emperor will celebrate his fiftieth birthday this year..."
"Princess Izumo is my lord's most beloved princess. After Princess Izumo got married, His Majesty the Emperor has always missed her very much. This time, as he approaches his fiftieth birthday, he specially sent foreign ministers to Jiankang to pick up Princess Izumo.
Return to Yanjing to congratulate the great emperor on his birthday."
Zhao Ying, Princess of Izumo in the Northern Dynasty, married to the State of Chen together with Queen Sun in the eighth year of Yu Hongde's reign and was named a noble concubine.
The title is Concubine Shu.
However, I don't know whether it is because the emperor does not favor her or because of her health. Even though it has been three years since her marriage, Concubine Shu is still not pregnant. She usually lives alone in the palace and rarely sees outsiders.
The emperor would go there occasionally, but not often.
Hearing the words of the Northern Qi envoy Zhu Man, His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "When the Emperor of the Northern Dynasties celebrates his birthday, I will naturally give you some gifts, but Concubine Shu is already a member of the Li family and it is inconvenient to go to Jiankang."
After saying this, the emperor waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, just step back."
Zhu Man, the envoy of the Northern Qi Dynasty, did not retreat after hearing the emperor's obviously unhappy words. Instead, he looked up at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, I, the emperor, miss Princess Izumo very much. This time I sent an envoy to Jiankang."
, I just want to take Princess Izumo back to Yandu, if Your Majesty doesn’t allow it..."
"I'm afraid the Great Emperor will be unhappy."
When His Majesty the Emperor heard this, his face became even more gloomy.
At this moment, he really wanted to curse, but due to his status, he couldn't do it directly, so he glanced at the ministers.
All the civil and military officials watched with their eyes, nose and heart, but did not speak.
Because this topic is too sensitive.
Everyone knows that there is a conflict between the imperial court and Northern Qi, and that the emperor is very unhappy now, and even understands the principle of "the emperor will die if he humiliates his ministers."
But everyone just refused to come out.
because……
Because the emperors of all dynasties had uncertain attitudes towards Northern Qi, you might jump out and fight the Qi people on behalf of the emperor now, and tomorrow the emperor will surrender to Northern Qi.
When the time comes, the Turtle Faction takes power, and your future will be gone.
For the sake of their own family's future, no one will jump out at this time.
As a result, the Deqing Hall fell into a deathly silence.
Master Shen looked left and right to make sure that no one would stand up to speak for his boss, then he sighed. Shi Shiran walked out, first bowed to the emperor, then turned to look at the Northern Qi envoy, slightly
Hold your head high.
"Whether your emperor is happy or not, what does it have to do with our court?"
Mr. Shen has been arrogant in the southeast for several years, and he is very knowledgeable about arrogance.
"I, Imperial Concubine Shu, whether I can go back or not is all my imperial business. What does it have to do with you?"
Zhu Man was stunned by what Shen Yi said. He first looked at Shen Yi, then looked at the crimson official uniform on Shen Yi, and looked at the emperor with a mixture of shock and anger.
"Your Majesty, is this the attitude of your Southern Dynasty clan?"
Shen Yi is too young.
Not only is he young, but he is also wearing the uniform of a fourth-rank official. At his age, he is a fourth-rank official... and he is most likely a member of the Li family's clan.
The emperor did not answer. Shen Yi glanced at Zhu Man and said calmly: "I want your envoy to know that I am not a member of Da Chen's clan, but just an ordinary minister in the court. I don't want you to speak rudely to His Majesty, so I have to stand."
Come out and say a few words."
Zhu Man was a little angry. He glared at Shen Yi fiercely: "What is your official position?"
"Shen is the great doctor Chen Zhongshun and a doctor in the Ministry of War."
Zhu Man first glanced at the emperor in surprise, and then glared at Shen Yi angrily: "What is the doctor from the Ministry of War doing for the Ministry of Etiquette?"
Shen Yi smiled and looked at the people at the Ministry of War, and said indifferently: "What does it have to do with you?"
"As an envoy, you have spoken rudely to His Majesty the Emperor, and your words and deeds have been disrespectful."
"I heard that the Northern Dynasties had been promoting moralization for more than sixty years."
Master Shen narrowed his eyes and said slowly: "The sage has taught you for sixty years, but why are you still so barbaric, with no etiquette at all?"
"Boy!"
Zhu Man was finally irritated by Shen Yi, and he said angrily: "Do you know who you are talking to! I am an envoy of your superior state, how dare you disobey your superior state!"
"I don't know where to start with the word Shangbang. Shen has never heard of it, but..."
Mr. Shen said slowly: "But Ambassador Zhu is now stepping on the territory of my Da Chen. Standing in my palace of Da Chen, you dare to shout at the Golden Palace of Filial Piety and disobey me, the fourth rank in the dynasty."
Shen Yi narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to leave Jiankang City?"
The two of them were quarreling endlessly.
His Majesty the Emperor was sitting on the throne with no expression on his face.
The five prime ministers of Zhongshu first looked at the emperor in unison. Seeing that the emperor did not respond, they looked at each other and discussed in a low voice. Then Prime Minister Chen Jing stood up. He coughed first and looked at Shen Yi: "Mr. Shen
Don't be rude, just go back first."
His Majesty the Emperor, who was sitting on the throne, glanced at Chen Jing and said nothing.
Mr. Shen also knew that it was almost time. He glanced at Zhu Man with contempt and said coldly: "You don't know what's good or bad. You Northern Dynasty sent a brainless person like you here probably just to let you die in Jiankang."
Not only do you not know your own situation, but you are still complacent here!"
This Northern Qi envoy Zhu Man...
At first, Shen Yi thought that his domineering attitude was deliberately pretending, but after a few exchanges, Mr. Shen realized that this man was indeed a bit confused.
Then it's obvious.
In order to anger the young emperor, the Northern Dynasty specially sent such a fool to Jiankang to play tricks, trying to anger the Southern Emperor and ask him to kill him.
Then the war will start again.
"For people like you, if I say anything more to you, it will be dirty."
Doctor Shen put his hands in his sleeves and said in a disdainful tone: "I will beat you once I see you outside the palace!"
Zhu Man glared at Shen Yi and continued to quarrel. Chen Jing on the side said in a dull voice: "It's time for Qi Envoy to have enough trouble. Could it be that he is really bullying me, Chen Yi?"
Chen Jing is the Prime Minister of Zhongshu and the first of the five Prime Ministers of Zhongshu. When he spoke, even Zhu Man, who had a domineering personality, stopped talking.
Just as Chen Jing was about to speak, His Majesty the Emperor stood up from his seat with an expressionless face.
"I'm tired. Today's court meeting ends here."
"The affairs of Qi Envoy will be handled jointly by the Ministry of Rites and Zhongshu."
Having said this, His Majesty the Emperor paused and said, "However, my concubine Shu will not return to Yandu."
After saying this, the emperor ignored the ministers and left the main hall.
As soon as the emperor left, the Deqing Palace naturally became lively.
Everyone focused on Shen Yi.
Some people extended their thumbs to praise Mr. Shen for his majesty, while others stood up and said that Shen Yi was too impulsive and harmed the harmony between the two countries.
Shen Yili ignored them and walked directly behind Qi Ren Zhu Man.
At this time, Zhu Man was facing away from him. Without saying a word, Mr. Shen raised his foot and kicked the man on the butt.
Zhu Man was kicked and staggered, and turned around angrily. Master Shen had already left with his hands behind his back, carelessly.
Zhu Man was furious and yelled a few words angrily, but Shen Yi was mixed in with so many people in official uniforms, and he didn't know who kicked him, so he couldn't get angry.
In the end, it was Pei Yuan, the Minister of Rites, who pulled him down and took him away from Deqing Hall.
After the civil and military officials left one after another, Prime Minister Cui Yu walked up to Prime Minister Chen Jing, lowered his head slightly, and said: "Prime Minister Chen, this young man named Shen..."
He said this and did not continue.
Chen Jing looked back at Cui Yu and asked, "How?"
"Are you a little too obsessed with utilitarianism?"
Cui Xiang lowered his head slightly and said, "He has gone to great lengths to please His Majesty. He is a flattering minister."
"Knowing that His Majesty was not happy with Northern Qi, he tried every possible means to anger the people of Qi."
"When the war started, he didn't know where to hide."
Cui Yu said in a deep voice: "Especially today, if he provokes Qi people like this, if a fight really breaks out, wouldn't it be a disaster for everyone?"
Chen Jing raised his eyebrows and looked at Cui Yu.
"Then how does Prime Minister Cui think he should be dealt with?"
The two of them are about the same age, and they both entered Zhongshu at the same time. However, Cui Yu's status is much lower now. He can only lower his head slightly and say: "Prime Minister Chen is the leader, so naturally it is Prime Minister Chen who has the final say."
"well."
Chen Jing shook his head slightly and looked at Cui Yu: "What Qi people did and said just now is that the Ministry of Rites should stand up and say a few words."
"Your Majesty is already annoyed."
He whispered: "You Cui Guangxian, if you are unwilling to stand up and speak, you must not let others speak out."
"and……"
Chen Jing glanced at the gate of Deqing Palace and said: "At this time, the young man you are talking about is probably..."
