"Your Majesty, you must understand what I am thinking. I do not dare to sit in such a seat, and I do not want to sit there."
"Haha... you can become the emperor just by sitting in this seat? Even I don't believe this kind of thing. Are you afraid of it too?"
"This has nothing to do with whether you are afraid or not. In short, I don't want to sit there. If you have something to tell me when you are here, please do it as soon as possible. I should go back to where I was to make some preparations for today."
"You lied, you are obviously afraid."
"..."
"I don't know whether you are afraid of this position or of me?"
"Both of them are afraid! Is this okay?" Xia Shang was a little impatient, "If you want to say something, say it quickly. If you don't say it, I have to leave."
"You caused such a big mess last night, don't you want to talk to me in advance? Tell me your plans? If it is in private, I can still protect you, but if you go to the court, then
But to be honest, don't think that going to court is just a formality. Every word spoken by everyone in the court can be known to the world in an instant. So do you understand what it means to come to the palace today?
"
"I know! But I should still appear here. I don't want the same thing to happen again!"
Seeing Xia Shang frowning and lowering his head, the queen couldn't help but smile, with a hint of softness in her eyes: "Although you are afraid of seeing me, you still care about me in your heart. I am very satisfied with this."
"Don't think too much, I just don't want my son to lose his mother."
"Speaking of my son, have you met him?"
"Isn't it time for your Majesty to get down to business?"
"Okay, let's get down to business. Anyway, you don't have to worry. When we get to the court, I will tell everyone straightforwardly that the actions last night were my and the emperor's orders, and you were just following orders. The crime you have caused, I
How about I carry it for you?"
Xia Shang half-squinted his eyes, as if he didn't expect this woman to be so cheerful.
The queen stood up, without wearing shoes, and walked barefoot in front of Xia Shang, gently touched Xia Shang's face, and said softly: "Although you have no ambition, you are the most unique compared to other men in the world.
If you are the one, I will inevitably fall in love with you. If you do this, I will inevitably fall in love with you.
I also want you to understand that I am not a heartless person. As long as I am in office for one day, no matter what trouble you cause, I will find a way to take it out for you."
"Should you plead guilty or should you announce to all officials that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has fully supported your empress?"
"What's the difference? The Metropolitan Procuratorate is such a big organization, with so many capable people hidden in it. In the current situation, we can't continue to remain neutral, right? Since we have to choose a team in the capital, can you still stand?
Among my enemies?"
"..." Xia Shang said nothing, but this was indeed an unsolvable problem.
He had no ability to persuade Qin Zheng to stop, and he had no reason to let Qin Zheng hand over the child to him. The other party always had a weak point in his hands.
Xia Shang was silent for a while and said in a deep voice: "What are you still dissatisfied with now? Haven't I been helping you? Chunjiao has already complained to me. You often use your child as a threat to ask her to do things for you. Now in Beijing
Everyone already knows that the Metropolitan Procuratorate has a very close relationship with you. You want to form a Jianghu force, and I also went to establish the Mingjiao. Isn’t this all done in accordance with your requirements? My thoughts are also very
It’s simple. It’s okay to ask me to help you, but you have to do it in secret. Now that you are going to announce in court that you were responsible for what happened yesterday, isn’t that making my relationship with you public? This is different from the original plan. Don’t do it on your own.
Claim.”
"First of all, Chunjiao is Simu's godmother. It is natural for the godmother to do something for her son's future. It is not a threat to me."
"What? Chunjiao is Simu's godmother? She never mentioned it to me!"
"You have to ask her about this. Secondly, you did follow my request to form Jianghu forces, but what is the result? So far, except for having a Mingjiao, you have not made any substantial progress.
There are still clear sects, and there are forces that are against the imperial court everywhere. Among them are many rivers and lakes forces controlled by various forces in the capital. You have not wiped them all out. Before your mission is completed, you secretly go behind my back.
You joined forces with the former prince and went to Xuzhou to fight the Japanese pirates, but you didn't even say a word to me! With your attitude in doing things, if you hadn't been called Xia Shang, I would have sent people to kill you ten or eight times.
"
The queen's voice became colder and colder. Thinking of Xia Shang's previous actions, she felt depressed in her heart.
The anger rose.
Xia Shang had always been soft-spoken, and when he heard the Queen's reprimanding his men, Xia Shang felt extremely unhappy. He reached out and pinched Qin Zheng's chin: "Listening to your tone, do you really think of me as your subordinate?
Let me tell you, no one in this world can control me. Don’t think that I don’t know what you are thinking. You want to reveal our relationship bit by bit, and then force me into that position step by step! I advise you
Put away your petty thoughts, I don’t need your help above the court! That’s it!”
Xia Shang was a little angry. After finishing speaking, he threw away the woman and pushed the door open.
Returning to the main entrance of Jinluan Hall, there were more officials gathered than before.
Xia Shang was walking leisurely all the way, raising his head and making no unusual moves, but among the officials who were bowing their heads and bending down, he looked very eye-catching.
"Who is that? So presumptuous!"
"Shh... don't talk, that was the murderer last night."
Hearing the word murderer, some officials who didn't know why were so frightened that they shrank their necks, lowered their heads, and moved their feet further away from this murderous god.
There was no one around Xia Shang, but he was happy to be quiet. He stood alone at the door of the Jinluan Palace and looked inside the Jinluan Palace.
A small number of officials had already lined up, and it could be clearly seen that there were many empty seats.
Xia Shang knew where those empty seats had gone and smiled faintly.
Now I just have to wait for the morning to start, and don't want another person to be around.
I met the second prince, the prime minister, and the queen. The only person I didn't meet was Prince Yong.
He thought that only King Yong would take the initiative to approach him at this time, but before Xia Shang turned around, he saw King Yong talking to a minister in the corner of the Jinluan Palace.
"Not Li Yong?" Xia Shang was confused.
Lin Yongshi's voice came from behind: "Your Excellency."
Xia Shang turned around and saw Lin Yongshi timidly approaching him, and asked in confusion: "Why is it you?"
"Um... When I see the First Master waiting here alone, I can't help but feel a little lonely... That..."
