There was silence, as if even the air had condensed!
If the emperor doesn't speak, who dares to breathe?
that's all.
The emperor stared at Cao Wei with a mocking look on his face. There was no joy or anger in his eyes, but he was just waiting for him to speak.
Beads of sweat mischievously appeared from Cao Wei's brow, and the temperature was as low as ice outside the door.
At this moment, he felt that the emperor was like an evil dragon that wanted to eat people, staring at him eagerly.
My heart is a little panicked!
Tremendous stress!
at this time.
Cao Wei gritted his teeth and smiled to please, like the hungry local dog in Zuo Xiang's palace: "Your Majesty, such a saint's ambition cannot be achieved without a saint. His words are enough to shock the world, and he will become a saint teacher of scholars all over the world!"
"I boldly guess that this saint's ambition was established by His Majesty."
Having said this, Cao Wei paid homage with a serious look on his face: "Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty for having ascended to the status of a saint!"
He did it very seriously.
"Hahaha"
Emperor Xia was stunned, the sarcastic expression on his face disappeared, and he continued to laugh.
beside.
Sima Jian, Li Jian, and Eunuch Wei simultaneously spurned in their hearts: "Shameless!"
"shameless!"
After a while.
Emperor Xia stopped laughing and his expression became much gentler: "Old man, if you can't guess it, you can't guess it. Why do you need to flatter me?"
"I have no holy aspirations in this life!"
"Because I want too much!"
Speaking of which.
A glint flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes, he picked up Sima Jian's memorial, threw it into the nearby copper furnace, and watched it burn to ashes.
"When King Huangzhou first left the imperial capital, he met a frail scholar who liked to read ancient books. The two hit it off immediately, and after they became friends, the scholar revealed the magnificent ambition of a saint just now!"
"And those four domineering words were also drunken words of the frail scholar. They were given to the King of Huangzhou as a gift of friendship, and were written down in the submission by the King of Huangzhou."
"Later, Sima Lan, the daughter of the Prime Minister Zuo, passed down the words of the Holy Way and the words of the King's hegemony to her father, and the Prime Minister Zuo wrote very clearly in the memorial."
"So, King Huangzhou is a loyal and filial child, and he has never deceived me!"
"The left prime minister and his daughter never deceived me!"
"The right minister is worrying too much!"
Speaking of which.
Emperor Xia ordered Sima Jian to make up a story incomprehensibly!
The expression on Sima Jian's face did not change at all!
Because the emperor never does things according to common sense, and the purpose is difficult to guess!
Why exactly?
at this time.
Emperor Xia continued: "However, you should regard it as the sage ambition and royal arrogance of King Huangzhou!"
"I am so wise and powerful, I can't always have a stupid little son, right?"
"It is reasonable to suddenly grow up and become wiser."
Everyone quickly said: "Of course!"
"I obey the decree!"
The emperor continued to talk to Xini: "Just now, Cao Qing once again proved your loyalty to me!"
"You should be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a pair of Ruyi jade!"
Cao Wei looked overjoyed and knelt down with tears of gratitude: "I thank your majesty, Cao Wei, for the reward. I will burn my last breath for your majesty and the court in this life."
but.
He didn't believe a word of what the emperor just said!
If it was true as the emperor said, why did he burn the old thief Sima's letter?
Showing it to him is worth a thousand words, right?
but.
He didn't dare to show his doubts.
If you don't believe the emperor, there is only one word - death!
Two words - tragic death!
Now, he still insists that these words were made by Sima Lan, the most talented woman in the imperial capital.
definitely is!
If not, let his first wife, that dominatrix, be struck by lightning from the sky and die without any trace of her body!
He, Cao Wei, dares to swear to God.
the other side.
Sima Jian helped him lie: "Prime Minister Cao, that's what happened. Please don't accuse me and my daughter unjustly anymore!"
"We can't even accuse the king of Huangzhou unjustly!"
"Otherwise, Your Majesty will not spare you lightly!"
"Hehehe"
Cao Wei had a fake smile on his face: "Forgive me, Prime Minister Zuo!"
"The truth is that I am loyal to Your Majesty, and that's why I misunderstood the Left Prime Minister. I am here to apologize to you!"
Sima Jian accepted it happily!
He also had a kind face: "The right Prime Minister did the right thing!"
"It is the duty of our ministers to be loyal to His Majesty!"
"I understand!"
"Hahaha"
The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had cleared up all their previous suspicions.
It was as if they were not the ones who just spat on, rolled up their sleeves and almost got into a fight.
The emperor secretly cursed: "If you are old but do not die, you are a thief; if you die but do not die, you are a demon!"
These two old guys knew that he, the emperor, wanted them to fight without defeat!
They must keep each other in check and not easily break the balance of power between the DPRK and China, so that they can act confidently in front of him.
beside.
Li Guogong Li Jian looked bored and was eager to cause trouble: "Your Majesty, they almost had a fight in front of you just now. They have no manners as a minister at all!"
"Therefore, I believe that as the prime ministers of Daxia, their behavior does not match their status, and they should take the blame and resign as prime ministers!"
