Chapter 333
Zhou Xingyun first greeted Taifu Xu, and then moved to the sixteenth son of the emperor: "I have met the sixteenth emperor."
"Zhou Aiqing, you don't even say anything to me when you go to court today. Are you too dissatisfied?" The Sixteenth Emperor's son showed displeasure, one was because Zhou Xingyun didn't say hello to him when he went to court today, and the other was that he had just said hello to Mr. Xu.
"Didn't Miss Nangong tell the Emperor for me?" Zhou Xingyun shamelessly shirked responsibility. Anyway, the Sixteenth son of the Emperor would not cause trouble for Nangong Ling for this matter.
"This..." The Sixteenth Son of the Emperor was silent. Yesterday, Nangong Ling did mention that Zhou Xingyun had returned to the mansion yesterday and planned to meet him today, but she did not say that Zhou Xingyun was going to meet in the court.
"Today, I have a generous gift to the emperor..." Zhou Xingyun said to the sixteenth son of the emperor in a voice that only two people could hear. However, Zhou Xingyun's last voice of "Emperor" did not pronounce it, but the word "Emperor" and a mouth shape.
The Sixteenth Son of the Emperor really didn't expect that Zhou Xingyun would dare to call him the Emperor in front of the Jinluan Palace. The impact force instantly made the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor's heart boil.
Not only that, Zhou Xingyun was bold and brave. Although the last word "Shang" was not pronounced, he faced the crowd of the sixteenth son of the emperor and was acting in front of Han Qiumio. His fearless attitude immediately made Han Qiumio grit his teeth fiercely.
Indeed, Han Qiumi was quite calm and knew that she had no real evidence, so she could do nothing to Zhou Xingyun.
After all, Zhou Xingyun is just a mouth shape, and she can't assert that Zhou Xingyun is stolen because of a silent mouth shape.
To be honest, Han Qiumi was not unable to convict Zhou Xingyun, but not because the Sixteenth Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Sixteen Sons did not speak and agreed to Zhou Xingyun's shouting. Once she concluded that Zhou Xingyun was treasonous, the Sixteenth Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor's Emperor'
This is why Zhou Xingyun provoked Han Qiumi without fear.
After paying homage to the sixteenth son of the emperor, Zhou Xingyun strided to the eldest princess Han Qiumio.
"Mr. Zhou is so powerful." Han Qiumi's voice was the first to seize the crowd.
"Your Highness, as the saying goes, smile for ten years, and your head turned pale after being worried. Your Highness's expression is a bit scary."
"Thank you for reminding me that Zhou Fengyu said today, I will remember it in my heart." Han Qiumio was arrogant and warned Zhou Xingyun with a pun. She would not forget his silent name to the Sixteenth Son just now.
"Princess Xie Yongming is worried." Zhou Xingyun smiled, then turned around and left, retreating to the end of the team of officials.
Zhou Xingyun knew very well that he was a fifth-rank official and was a Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau. Before the Empress Dowager summoned him, he was not qualified to enter the Golden Palace. Now he had greeted Grand Tutor Xu and the Sixteenth Son of the Emperor. Next, he would wait for the Empress Dowager to attend court.
The gate of the Golden Palace was buzzing and open. An old eunuch holding a whisk stepped out of the hall door, pulled his hoarse voice and shouted loudly: "All officials come to court."
The powerful ministers located outside the door immediately entered the palace in an orderly manner, one carrot and one pit, and competed step by step.
The old eunuch returned to the hall without any speed, stood solemnly on the stairs platform of the Golden Palace, and waited for a moment and shouted again...
"The Empress Dowager is here!"
"All my beloveds are calm."
All the officials in the court knelt down and bowed, Zhou Xingyun followed the opportunity to worship, and the Empress Dowager, accompanied by his servants, walked into the hall with a translucent curtain and screen...
Zhou Xingyun is unable to use his power for the time being and cannot stare at the details in the hall, but he can be sure of two things.
First, Han Feng did not attend court, the dragon throne was empty and there was no one, and all the major events in the court were presided over by the Empress Dowager.
Second, the Empress Dowager's voice was as lively and crisp as a girl. If it weren't for the five words "The Beloved Ministers' were flat", it must come from the Empress Dowager's mouth, Zhou Xingyun would even suspect that it would be the eldest princess Han Qiumio who was talking just now, and the voices of the two were so similar.
"Start a report if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do."
The old eunuch shouted in international practice, and Zhou Xingyun saw Taifu Xu and the six ministers of the ministry, and came forward to report one after another, and handed over the memorials that needed to be reviewed to the Empress Dowager.
Since Zhou Xingyun was standing outside the hall, the ministers said something and were arguing about it, he could only hear one occasionally. The specific content was probably that the grain harvest in a certain area was not good this year. Now that winter is coming, some places are about to have famine. Some people hope that the court will allow officials from all over the country to pay food and pay to support the people in some areas for the winter.
The ministers seemed to have been arguing in the court for two days for this matter, but they still failed. To put it bluntly, distributing food and wages to rescue disasters is not a problem, but who will implement the problem...
Zhou Xingyun lowered his head and yawned secretly. Thirty minutes had passed, and he was almost asleep while standing. However, the Empress Dowager still did not call him into the palace. It was really a day. Could it be that the sixteenth son of the Emperor did not know how to be a human being. Even though he knew that he had something to report, he would not recommend him to go to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager?
You know, he said just now that there is a big gift for the "Emperor". Shouldn't the Sixteenth Emperor's son be too excited when he heard the word "Emperor" and ignore the "Great Gift"?
Just as Zhou Xingyun was thinking about whether to make some noise to attract the attention of the ministers in the hall so that the Empress Dowager could announce that he was entering the hall, the old eunuch standing by the stairs finally called out.
"The Empress Dowager has an order to Xuanshang Pharmacy Zhou Xingyun and Zhou Fengyu meet with him..."
The order echoed layer by layer in the hall, and the eunuchs repeated the appeal dialogues like repeaters, wandering inside and outside the Golden Palace for a long time, making Zhou Xingyun feel uncomfortable all over...
Zhou Xingyun was inspired and said, "What do eunuchs do in the palace do?" Not only is it inhumane, but it is also disgusting. Isn't it enough to replace it with palace maids. If the person who calls out layer by layer is not eunuchs, but beautiful palace maids, he might be excited*. (The foolish lord!)
"I bow to the Empress Dowager, Qiansui, Qiansui, Qiansui, Qiansui."
While thinking about it, Zhou Xingyun walked into the hall and gave a great gift to the Empress Dowager under Han Qiumi's cold eyes.
"Peace. Zhou Fengyu has worked hard for our dynasty. Thank you for your hard work. After hearing the 16th Prince's remarks, Zhou Fengyu was not only ordered to attend the Jianghu Conference to supervise whether the famous families of various sects have any other intentions, but also personally participated in it. At the Young Heroes Conference, he won the top scorer in the martial arts competition and praised our dynasty. The Ai family was deeply pleased. If our dynasty gets the help of Zhou Fengyu and his wise ministers who are both civil and military, we will surely be able to consolidate our country forever forever."
"Thank you for your kindness. I am just doing my best and offering me a meager strength to our dynasty. I am honored by the superior officials."
"Qi Bi Mother! This is not the case! Zhou Fengyu bullies the king and the emperor! He deserves to die!"
As soon as Zhou Xingyun bowed his head to express his gratitude, Han Qiumi couldn't calm down and stood out of the queue and pointed at him and deceived the emperor.
The eldest princess' move shocked many bureaucrats. Xu Zhiqian, Xiaoqing, and Qin Beiyan are all students of the First Class School. They have a close relationship with Han Qiumi.
Zhou Xingyun and Han Qiumi, even if they are not friends, should not become enemies. Now the eldest princess impeached Zhou Xingyun in person. What is the situation?
"Why did you say this?"
"Your mother, Zhou Fengyu is a notorious slut in the world. The mother must not believe his slander. This person participated in the Youth Hero Conference, not as an official of our dynasty, but as a disciple of Jianshu Villa. People in the world who participated in the Youth Hero Conference did not know that Jianshu was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was.”
"Zhou Fengyu not only concealed his identity and participated in the Jianghu Competition, but also formed a clique at the Youth Heroes Conference in the name of the court, colluded with various factions in the Jianghu, and reached an ulterior motive agreement in private..."
Han Qiumi was very polite and pointed at Zhou Xingyun's misconduct, and his heart was punished, which immediately caused a rustling sound from the officials in the court.
"Zhou Fengyu, Ai's family asks you, is this true?" The empress dowager asked tepidly, making people unable to see how she was in a state of mind. Did she feel angry at Han Qiumi's words?
"When I go back to the Empress Dowager, this is indeed true, but it is not true." Zhou Xingyun replied in a humble and arrogant manner.
"Mr. Zhou, what does this mean that it is true, but it is not true?" The Sixteenth son of the Emperor asked from the side so that Zhou Xingyun could explain slowly.
"There is indeed a concealment of official positions and attending the Youth Heroes Conference and winning over the heads of major sects. However, the motive is not what the eldest princess said, and his intentions are punished if he is not good at plotting against others."
"First of all, I concealed my identity and participated in the Youth Hero Conference because I was in an official position to compete with others. Young disciples of the Jianghu Sect were inevitably afraid of my power and could not do their best. In this way, even if the subordinates won the championship, they would be said to be a victory that would be unfair."
"The eldest princess is not a person in the martial arts world. She does not understand the rules of the martial arts world and does not know that the people in the martial arts world are rebellious and pretentious. Only by winning the game with dignity can they gain their respect and appreciation. Therefore, only the heads of the Jianghu sect know that Weishen is a disciple of Jianshu Mountain Villa, and the disciple of Jianshu Mountain Villa is a minister. Of course, this is enough..."
"In addition, the Sixteenth Prince has the great cause of our dynasty and wants thousands of experts from the martial arts world to serve our dynasty, so he sent officials to lobby for various famous families. After all,... the court had long been interested in order to install famous families in the dynasty, but it was beyond its reach and had not achieved any results."
When Zhou Xingyun talked about his lack of ability, his eyes fell on Han Qiumi. The eldest princess had long advocated that there were capable people in the world, especially the major sects in the world. Unfortunately, the officials she sent were all useless, and they paid too much attention to the relationship between master and servant. Relying on the power of the court, they insisted on involving Jianghu affairs. As a result, the plan was delayed to this day and has not been successful...
"The sixteen princes are wiser than the sky. Seeing that the officials could not entrust the famous families in the world, they recommended the officials to attend the Youth Heroes Conference, and as a gang of famous families, they unite with all the famous families. Now the weak ministers live up to expectations. At the Youth Heroes Conference, they defeated evil disciples, won the appreciation of the heads of major sects, and reached an agreement with several famous families in the world. They are willing to respond to the call of our Jianshu Villa at the time of need, and provide indispensable combat power for the court to go through fire and water and make achievements!"
The meaning in Zhou Xingyun's words is very obvious. Although the sects in the Jianghu are unwilling to obey the imperial edicts of the court officials, they will respond to the call of Jianshu Villa in accordance with the rules of the Jianghu and provide combat power for the court. As long as he comes forward to order the Jianghu, the relevant sects will respond one after another...
