Just because the tributes had official status, unless it was a crime, the emperor could not directly depose a tribute without any reason. At most, he would be demoted to the last one.
And with Jinshi, you can wait to be sent to an official, no matter how low you are, you are still a small county magistrate.
Therefore, the official uniforms of tribute sergeants are all from the seventh rank official uniform.
A simple red robe with no pattern decoration, and a black official hat on his head, which is equally simple.
But such a simple outfit gives people completely different feelings when worn by different people.
Some people's figures are out of shape and not straight. Wearing these clothes, they look more ugly than usual. Not everyone can pull off such a style.
Su Ziji, a young man with a tall and straight figure, puts on this outfit and makes his face look like a crown jewel. He has a heroic appearance and is very energetic.
Coupled with his mediocre appearance, he simply stands out from the crowd, making it difficult for people to think about it at first glance.
After the meeting with the saints, the roll call is over, and the first-level Jinshi is awarded, official robes will be given to them, which may hurt people's eyes if they wear them.
At this moment, many people in the crowd couldn't help but feel sour. Especially when they thought of Su Ziji's arrogance and left without talking to him, they felt that he and they were like people from two different worlds.
Su Ziji had keen senses, so he could naturally feel some jealous, envious or even just plain disgusting eyes falling on him.
But at the moment, he was preoccupied with thoughts. When he woke up, he found that one fox had turned into two foxes, and they were wrestling together with their claws snapping. He might be interested in asking questions at ordinary times, but today he didn't have the thought or time, so he just gave the order.
Just one sentence and hurry up to court.
But the alienation between himself and the dragon girl made him feel unhappy.
"Let's not talk about Panlong Lake. It is too conspicuous. It is said that when I woke up, there was a bright glow passing over the capital, which looked like a dragon."
"What omen is this?"
"No matter what the omen is, it really goes against my original intention."
Su Ziji was thinking about what happened last night. How could he have time to pay attention to these people?
The morning glow gradually increased and the sky became brighter. As the officials of Honglu Temple entered the temple again, Su Ziji thought to himself: "According to the time of this dynasty, it should be time to go to court by now, but looking at this situation, it looks like
Is it delayed? Is it related to the vision last night?"
"There seem to be some eyes in the capital, staring everywhere at all times. There is really a strange phenomenon, and the Taoists serving the emperor may not be aware of it."
"You shouldn't be suspicious of me, right?"
As he was thinking this way, there were three faint sounds of whips in the palace, and then the sound of drums and music began to sound softly, and there was a high-pitched voice: "The Emperor has arrived!"
The Chief of the Ministry of Rites waved his hand. This had been rehearsed over and over again, so the Gongshi quickly knelt down without saying a word and shouted: "Long live, long live, long live!"
The emperor came in amid the sound of music, paused briefly at the door of the palace, glanced at the kneeling tributes below, and without saying a word, climbed up to the throne in the palace.
The emperor, who signaled his ministers to report something, still had Huo Wuyong's words echoing in his mind.
Maybe in the eyes of some people, he relied more on Liu Zhan, but in fact, judging from the fact that he kept Huo Wuyong walking in the palace and making elixirs for him, it can be seen that the emperor actually trusted Huo Wuyong more.
In other words, no matter how strong Huo Wuyong is, he has no sect power and is a lonely minister. However, no matter how loyal Liu Zhan is, he has the Yin Guan sect behind him, which determines the difference.
"Now that the Dragon Girl has become a Dragon Lord, although she can kill, it still takes a lot of trouble. If the demon clan takes advantage of her in the process and controls the Dragon Girl to attack Da Zheng, she will be taking the initiative instead of being passive.
"
"The canonization of the Dragon Girl is just a dragon girl and a young dragon. How can it be said that after accepting the canonization, she can violate it? It must not be possible. When the time comes, she will be Dazheng's own god."
"With the control of the Ten Thousand Demons Order, if the demon tribe that was still causing trouble again will be punished by the Dragon Girl through the Ten Thousand Demons Order, all the court can do is to issue an imperial edict to the Dragon Girl."
"You can solve the demon clan's troubles over the years without spending a single soldier."
"Even if the Dragon Girl becomes stronger in the future, it will actually be hundreds of years later. Then it won't be my problem."
The emperor thought about it and felt that these words actually moved him more.
He was no longer young. Although he became more and more suspicious of the kings and grasped matters in the capital more and more tightly, he was actually a little tired of starting another war against aliens.
What he is even doing is slowly consolidating the military power in his hands, rather than delegating power again, so that the kings can take this opportunity to decentralize power from him.
"However, there is always hesitation in my heart, as if there is some force stopping me."
"My lords, do you have anything else to report?"
With these thoughts in my mind, I listened to the things reported by the courtiers in the palace. They were all small and medium-sized matters. The emperor often heard them arguing in the palace and was already used to it, so he didn't need to listen carefully to know what they were doing.
What is it for.
The water is clear and there are no fish. The emperor usually has a good attitude towards these ministers who do not obviously stand in line to claim the throne. Even the three adult princes who can go to court to listen to the government, the emperor treats them equally and does not scold them in public.
Save some face.
But this seemed to have given some people a wrong signal. After the emperor asked the question, King Qi came out directly.
The emperor, who wanted to call the tribute ministers in to end the court meeting, suddenly frowned slightly and looked over.
"What's the matter with you?"
King Qi was below, lowering his head slightly, and said respectfully: "Father, I have something to ask for permission from my father!"
"Although the floods are subdued now, there is another locust plague in various counties. I usually have nothing to do. Seeing that you are working hard on state affairs, but I can't help you, I feel really guilty and uneasy, so I want to invite myself out of the capital to inspect the locust plague.
, please allow your father to agree!"
As soon as these words came out, not only the officials present were stunned, but even the emperor was shocked.
The emperor immediately became suspicious and grasped the armrests of the throne, but a smile appeared on his face: "Oh, King Qi's heart is commendable. Ministers and ministers, listen to me. As a minister, you should have this in mind.
A little uneasy - but where do you want to go?"
This expression actually paralyzed King Qi.
He was originally uneasy, but seeing that his father was not furious, he said bravely: "I have heard a lot about locusts in Haixi Province, Guangling Province, and Hanfu Province, and I want to go and see them."
Among these three province names is Guangling Province.
If it were normal, it would be fine, but if something happened to the Dragon Girl, the emperor would be the most sensitive.
Panlong Lake is in Guangling Province, and Xiaolong is there. When the emperor heard this, he didn't understand what the son in the palace wanted.
The three adult sons all have ambitions, and the emperor has long taken this into consideration. As long as they don't stretch their claws too far and can reach a balance, the emperor will let them go. Anyway, they are just sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers.
But he couldn't tolerate any of his sons having such a quick source of information.
When he heard the words "Guangling Province", his heart shrank, and he thought to himself: "I only found out about Longnu more than an hour ago, why did this son also know about it at the same time? Could it be that the house also secretly raised him?
Alchemist? Or is he so deeply colluded with the demon clan?"
