Ying Zhao looked down quietly as if she were watching a show. She had no intention of helping Wu Zhongxian.
She came here wanting to test Wu Zhongxian's ability. After all, if he couldn't even deal with the attacks from the court, how could he deal with those old foxes in the world?
Secondly, she also wanted Da Qin officials to suppress Wu Zhongxian's arrogance, so that he would not take Da Qin seriously just because he was a minister of Da Zhou.
Wu Zhongxian was neither humble nor arrogant. He stood up calmly and looked at the person who scolded him.
"I keep Your Majesty in my heart, and sincerity means sincerity. How can false courtesy mean disrespect?"
Wu Zhongxian stood with his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice: "Only those with a guilty conscience need some false etiquette to show loyalty and awe."
"King Chen Liu used to respect His Majesty. He knelt down when he saw you, but didn't he still rebel?"
this……
As soon as everyone heard this, they knew that this guy was talking nonsense, making nonsense, and talking nonsense, but for a moment everyone felt that it made sense.
Wu Zhongxian went on to say: "Your Majesty is virtuous, generous and talented. He will not value false courtesy to prove his respect."
When everyone heard this, they looked up to see the empress' expression.
Hmm... I can't see anything. The empress is indifferent to honor and disgrace, and her joy and anger are inexpressible.
When the civil servants saw this situation, they no longer struggled with it. After all, the empress did not express dissatisfaction. If they continued to struggle, they would only make themselves more embarrassed.
"Your Majesty, who is this person? I have never heard of it before. It would be inappropriate for a mere unknown person to be the head of the Jianghu Department."
Someone changed the topic and said: "I think this person can only talk a little bit, and he can't convince those quacks by relying on fallacies."
Wu Zhongxian sneered and said: "Your Majesty is quite powerful. You are ignorant just because you are ignorant. Why should you step on His Majesty?"
When the man heard this, he immediately became anxious: "You are talking nonsense, when did I step on His Majesty? I mean you are incompetent, how could I step on His Majesty?"
He didn't even mention it!
Wu Zhongxian said unhurriedly: "I am the head of the Jianghu Department appointed by His Majesty. You come here and say that I am incompetent and nameless based on your own ignorance. What do you mean by this? What kind of behavior are you doing?"
"Aren't you just sarcastically saying that His Majesty doesn't know people well, and that His Majesty doesn't know how to employ people? Isn't it better than you?"
"It's really amazing. Your Majesty is not as good at employing people as you are!"
When the man heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He turned his head and knelt down in front of Ying Zhao.
"Your Majesty, this person slandered me, he slandered me, I had no intention of doing so!"
This hat was too big for him to bear, and he had to admit his mistake first.
Ying Zhao just looked at it without saying a word. Her expression was incomprehensible and difficult to understand.81Zw.????m
The man who knelt down to apologize did not receive a response and did not dare to get up. He could only rest his head on the ground.
"Hang Miao!"
Someone else stood up and reprimanded: "You are clearly trying to disobey His Majesty. If you have real talent and knowledge, why don't you show it and convince us?"
"Such words can only show that you have a guilty conscience."
Just now they were quarreling over the position of chief executive. Now they all agreed that they would definitely pull Wu Zhongxian down.
"oh?"
Wu Zhongxian sneered and said: "You have to prove it if you question me? Well, now that I question you as a eunuch, you immediately take off your pants and prove it to everyone. Otherwise, you are a eunuch. In Da Qin, it is a capital crime for eunuchs to interfere in politics, so you prove it immediately
You are not, otherwise please commit suicide."
Before the empress, the Qin Dynasty had eunuchs who caused cholera in the court, which almost caused the Qin Dynasty to fall. Later, the empress came to power and eliminated most of the eunuchs in the palace, and established this law.
"You...you...you, you are talking nonsense, how can I be a eunuch...I have a group of wives and concubines..."
This man was so angry that Wu Zhongxian covered his heart and was helpless and furious.
Wu Zhongxian sneered: "Oh, you have a bunch of wives and concubines, but you don't seem to have any children? Doesn't that mean you are a eunuch? The so-called wives and concubines are just a way for you to cover up."
This man is not a eunuch, he is just a eunuch.
Wu Zhongxian could tell at a glance that this man had insufficient yang energy, and based on the intelligence, he knew that this man was the Minister of Rites, who was very old and had no heirs.
"Your Majesty, he is humiliating me. This thief is talking nonsense and humiliating me. Your Majesty, please make the decision!"
The Minister of Rites could not say Wu Zhongxian, and he could not take off his pants to prove it. Let alone the female emperor, even if he was a male emperor, he could not take off his pants to prove it.
Another one knelt down, put his head on the ground, and begged the empress to make the decision.
When the others saw that this guy was a bit difficult to deal with, they decided not to defend him and use other methods to defeat him.
"Since you are very confident in your own abilities, how about I compare my literary talents with you?"
The Minister of Civil Affairs stood up and looked at Wu Zhongxian haughtily.
He considers himself a cultural person, and scolding is not what he is good at. He wants to defeat Wu Zhongxian in the field he is good at.
"How do you want to compare?"
Wu Zhongxian looked sideways at this person. It was really strange. He hadn't seen this kind of thing in many years, and someone even came here to slap him in the face.
"Forget about strategies and strategies. After all, you are not in the court, so it is not easy to bully you."
The Minister of Civil Affairs said confidently: "I will compete with you in poetry!"
This was fast, and he bet that Wu Jingxian came up in a hurry and was definitely not prepared in advance.
Unfortunately, he came across a good line the day before and was worried that he had no place to show it. Now it's better and he can show his face directly in front of Her Majesty the Empress.
"Then give it a try!"
Wu Zhongxian looked indifferent.
"Would you come first or should I come first? I'll tell you later that I'm bullying you."
The Minister of Rites is very confident. He is confident that once this poem is published, he will definitely win the favor of the empress.
Wu Zhongxian stood with his hands behind his back and muttered: "What a coincidence, I'm also afraid of being accused of bullying you. Let's do this! I'll go first, and you can think slowly."
The Minister of Rites was stunned for a moment, how could this guy be so arrogant?
This is a poetry competition, not a debate. How dare you accept this without thinking? You even dare to come first without even thinking?
Okay, okay, if that's the case, then he will trample on Wu Jingxian's face severely later.
All the ministers looked like they were watching a good show. They couldn't stand Wu Zhongxian's arrogance, and they couldn't stand this guy parachuting in to occupy the position of chief minister.
This minister of the Ministry of Rites was the number one scholar in the last imperial examination, and his poetic talent was ranked among the best in the Qin Dynasty. He even received many praises from Prime Minister Kong Lu and Prime Minister Kong.
Mr. Kong can almost be called a saint in the literary world. A single comment from him is enough to make him famous among scholars all over the world, not to mention that he has been praised many times.
One can imagine how great the poetry skills of this Minister of Civil Affairs were.
Moreover, there are still a few people who know that the Minister of Civil Affairs has won a good poem and have seen it. It is an absolutely amazing and excellent work.
To defeat the poem "Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs", unless the poet saint of the Great Zhou Dynasty comes, everyone will kneel down.
