The elegant Zhou Yuniang walked up surrounded by a group of palace ladies.
Among the ministers, many subconsciously swallowed their saliva when they saw Zhou Yuniang.
Who said that the ministers who come here to ask for orders must be loyal ministers and good generals.
No matter where you are, there are actually people who follow the crowd.
What's more, this queen is indeed so beautiful that it makes people's hearts itch.
Although I can't do anything openly due to my identity, I can't think about it in my heart?
We are all men, no one can tell anyone else.
"My lords, are you here again?"
Zhou Yuniang walked to the imperial study room, looked at a group of ministers with a smile on her face and said.
"Meet the Queen."
The ministers saluted respectfully, and all of them looked a little unnatural on their faces.
This kind of thing where ministers asked for orders did create a lot of noise at the beginning, and even caused shock to the government and the public.
But if something happens too often, people won’t care much about it.
What's more, as Zhou Yuniang took over the government affairs, everyone in the government and the public soon discovered that the empress was really capable.
All kinds of government affairs were handled with ease. If the queen were not a woman, she would definitely become a wise king.
Coupled with Sima Hongyi, it is really impossible to hold up the wall.
So to this day, many ministers have actually gradually become accustomed to the situation where Zhou Yuniang is in charge of the government affairs.
The reason why we came to the Royal Study Room to cause such a scene every few days was just to show everyone's loyalty and integrity.
What's more, they have done this a lot in the past two years, and have become somewhat used to it.
Now if there was a fight within a few days, they would all feel uncomfortable.
"My lords, have you had enough trouble today?" Zhou Yuniang glanced at everyone with a smile.
The Prime Minister Zuo raised his head and said: "Your Majesty is wrong. We are not just fooling around. We are asking for orders for the people and setting the course for the government."
"Okay, okay, all of you, my lords, are loyal and upright ministers, but now is not the time to be in charge of your duties."
Zhou Yuniang raised her hand, and the palace maid immediately handed over a memorial.
"This is a report that has just been sent to the capital. It has been raining heavily in the south of the Yangtze River for eight consecutive days, and it is very likely to continue. I think the court should make plans early. What do you think?"
"What, it's raining heavily in Jiangnan?"
Zuo Xiang jumped up suddenly, took the memorial and read it carefully.
His face was solemn: "Mother, if the heavy rain continues, it may cause floods. We must respond in advance, otherwise many people may die."
"So, aren't I here to invite you sirs?"
Zhou Yuniang said calmly: "If any of you feel that asking for orders here is more important than the safety of the people in Jiangnan, then you can continue to stay. The others will immediately follow me to handle the government affairs."
After saying that, she suddenly turned around and left without looking back.
The ministers looked at each other in shock.
Prime Minister Zuo glared: "What are you doing? If you can't wait for the Queen to help you personally, why don't you help me quickly?"
Wow!
All the ministers immediately stood up and, together with the left prime minister, hurriedly chased the queen.
…
Wind and Rain Sword Sect, reception hall.
A middle-aged man wearing a mask was brought in by a disciple of the Sword Sect.
"Sect Master, people have arrived."
"Well, you go down and tell everyone not to let anyone get close within a hundred feet of the hall, including you."
"yes."
After the disciple left, Jian Chi looked at the masked middle-aged man and said, "Your Highness King Yu, I wonder why you came to our Wind and Rain Sword Sect today?"
King Yu is the second son of Sima Tongsheng, who is also the second brother of Sima Hongyi.
When Sima Tongsheng was still alive, Prince Yu could be said to be the most powerful contender for the throne besides Sima Hongyi.
Unfortunately, in the end, Sima Tongsheng passed the throne to his most beloved son, Sima Hongyi.
King Yu was very unwilling to accept this, so he has been restless in these years and has been secretly plotting to usurp the throne.
"Senior Jian Chi, there are rumors in the world that you are planning to take the entire Wind and Rain Sword Sect and leave the Jin Dynasty?"
King Yu asked.
"It is true. There are too many mundane things in this mortal world, and it is really not suitable for concentrating on cultivation. Therefore, I will lead the Wind and Rain Sword Sect to the East China Sea to find a quiet island to reestablish the sect."
"By then there will be no interference from outside worldly matters, and the disciples will naturally be able to abandon distracting thoughts and concentrate on improving their cultivation. In the future, our Wind and Rain Sword Sect will surely become the truly No. 1 sect in the world."
Jian Chi replied.
"I think, Senior Jian Chi has already found the island where the sect was reestablished. I don't know where it is. I will definitely visit him if I have the opportunity in the future?"
King Yu asked.
"Haha, I won't tell anyone where the island is. Otherwise, how can we talk about escaping from the world and practicing cultivation?"
Jian Chi smiled lightly and said: "Your Highness, you should tell me what happened today?"
Prince Yu was silent for a moment, and took out half a gold lock from his arms: "Senior Jian Chi, I wonder if the promise you made to your master back then still counts now?"
Jian Chi frowned slightly and took the golden lock.
His master, the previous leader of the Wind and Rain Sword Sect, was seriously injured once, but he happened to be saved by King Yu's mother, and his life was saved.
After that time, Master Jian Chi took half a gold lock as a token and promised to do something for Queen Yu's mother in the future.
It's just that this promise has never been used by the previous generation, so it naturally falls on the next generation.
It's not that Jian Chi is exaggerating his own worth. As the only powerful man in the Heavenly Realm in the Jin Dynasty, his promise is quite valuable.
Precisely because of this, Prince Yu even took out half of the gold lock, which meant that what the other party asked for was probably extremely difficult to handle.
"Master is very kind to me. As a disciple, I will naturally do my best to fulfill his promise. Tell me, what do you want to do?"
"I, the king, would like to ask Senior Sword Chi to kill the current queen, Zhou Yuniang."
"The current queen?"
The sword idiot's face darkened: "Your Highness King Yu, you are trying to push me, the Fengyu Sword Sect, into the pit of fire."
"With my level of cultivation, it is easy to kill the queen, but what happens after that?"
"I will die one day. Without me at that time, the Wind and Rain Sword Sect will definitely suffer revenge from the imperial court. Do you think I should agree to it?"
"Senior Jianchi, don't be too busy refusing."
King Yu said confidently: "My thirteenth brother has been foolish and ignorant since he came to the throne. Now all the government affairs have fallen into the hands of Zhou Yuniang."
"To tell you the truth, senior, I have already planned everything. As long as Zhou Yuniang dies, my good-for-nothing thirteenth brother will not be my opponent at all."
"When the time comes, I will launch a coup and seize the throne in one fell swoop. When I take control of the government, why do you have to worry about the court's revenge?"
King Yu said with a smile on his face: "What's more, even if I fail to seize the throne, my senior will have already gone to sea with the Wind and Rain Sword Sect, and the court will not be able to find any trace of you, so how can we talk about revenge?"
"Haha, you are very considerate of me."
The sword idiot looked coldly: "Okay, I can help you kill the queen, but from now on, our grudges will be cleared up."
"In addition, I will only strike three times against the queen. If she does not die after three strikes, I will not strike again. Can you agree?"
"Of course, seniors have the pride of seniors. It's difficult for you to attack a junior woman at the Grand Master level. Three Swords has already made you very embarrassed. How can I not agree?"
King Yu said without hesitation.
Just kidding, Jian Chi is a strong man in the heaven and human realm.
Not to mention that Zhou Yuniang only has a master level cultivation, even a martial saint might not be able to catch the sword from Sword Chi.
Three swords?
It's a complete waste.
"It seems that this time the throne is destined to be mine." King Yu was full of confidence.
