At the beginning, the empress will be the queen and eat soft rice to open the blind box

Yue Zhi returned to the cold palace full of doubts.

He couldn't figure out why Xiao Yuyi's attitude changed so much!
Fortunately, he has a lazy personality, and he will never go to the edge of a dead end when he can't figure it out. He just puts it down and doesn't want to, so why bother to make himself unhappy.

The world is so beautiful, looking for a bowl of stable soft rice to eat, isn't it delicious?

The lunch was messed up by himself, and at dinner time, Yue Zhi asked Han Qiuchan to go to the imperial dining room and took an extra bowl of rice.

The next morning, when Yue Zhi was still in his dream.

Imperial City.

Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony, also known as the Hall of Golden Luan, is the place where the kings and ministers of the Dayue Empire held court meetings.

At the beginning of the Empress Xiao Yuyi's ascension to the throne, the Minister of the Left, Xiao Sanjue, negotiated with the elder Xie An, and stipulated that every three, six or nine days, all officials would attend the court meeting.

For the rest of the day, unless there are important events related to the lifeline of the country, life and death, the Empress's cultivation should not be disturbed.

Later, when the empress attained great cultivation, this rule continued.

At the beginning of the Mao Dynasty, the ministers in the imperial capital who were qualified to participate in the court meeting had gathered outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony in twos and threes.

Three clean whips sounded in the hall, and a female guard with a loud voice shouted loudly, "Your Majesty has ascended to court, and all officials will see you~"

The ministers walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony one by one according to their ranks.

Kneel down and kowtow, shouting long live, after a set of well-known procedures.

Wu Qiuping, the female emperor's bodyguard, walked up to the imperial steps, "All officials will play early if they have something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do...!"

Before the words were finished, a person from the civilian queue on the left stood up,
"Your Majesty, the old minister has a book to play."

Xiao Yuyi's beautiful eyes were rippling, but it was Xiao Boyong who was his father.

"Xiao Shilang, what's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, yesterday afternoon, there was a murder in the back kitchen of the Qingfeng Building. Witnesses said that it was the work of Ouchi's guards. I wonder if Your Majesty knows about it?"

A person in the civil service queue sneered, "According to Xiao Shilang, His Majesty was deceived by others, and someone falsely preached the imperial decree."

Xiao Boyong turned his head and said angrily, "Mo Yuan, don't make insinuations. I never said that His Majesty was deceived."

Xiao Jieyi stretched out his right hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows with his slender fingers.

The grandfather's faction and Ge Lao Xie'an's faction have always been at odds, and the two sides often pinch each other.

Now it has risen to the point of opposing for the sake of opposing.

"Mo Qing's family, Xiao Shilang's question is not wrong. Yesterday afternoon, I did send guards to arrest the suspect in the murder of former Nan'an Crown Prince Ruan Zhaoqing."

Xiao Boyong glanced at Mo Yuan complacently, and saw if my daughter was still facing me.

Mo Yuan bowed and apologized, "My minister is guilty."

Xiao Boyong retorted, "Knowing that I'm guilty, why don't you keep your mouth shut."

Mo Yuan smiled slightly, ignoring Xiao Boyong's provocation.

His Excellency's punch was like hitting a pile of cotton, there was no force on it, but he almost flinched his arm.

Xie An knelt down on the shift, and said tremblingly, "Your Majesty sent someone to arrest the murderer of the case of the former prince of Nan'an. I wonder if he was arrested and brought to justice?"

Xiao Jieyi scolded the old fox secretly, "Mr. Ge, please come. Xie Tang did not bring back the criminals, and the cook in Qingfenglou was killed."

Left Prime Minister Xiao Sanjue left the class, "Your Majesty, is there any conclusive evidence that the cook killed someone?"

"Have!"

Xiao Sanjue and Xie An frowned at the same time, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Left Prime Minister, Elder Ge, do you have any questions?"

The two bigwigs in the hall of the Dayue Empire said in unison, "The old minister is terrified."

Xiao Sanjue pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty, after all, the Ministry of Punishment should take care of this matter. Even though Your Majesty is the emperor of the Dayue Empire, he should not do it for him."

Xie An continued, "Exactly, the so-called state owns the state's laws, and the family has its own rules. Your Majesty cannot take the lead in breaking the state's laws."

Anger grew in Xiao Jieyi's chest. These two old men who combined to be 150 years old were greedy for the power in their hands.

Seeing that I have acted out of their control, and actually went into battle in person, it is bound to kill the mood in the bud.

Xiao Jieyi lowered his gaze, "Master Zuo, Mr. Ge is right, but I did something wrong!"

She clenched her jade hands tightly under the wide dragon robe.

The two big brothers said in unison again, "The old minister is terrified."

Xiao Jieyi asked his father who was still standing in the middle of the hall and did not return, "Xiao Shilang, what else is there?"

Seeing his daughter being squeezed out by Xie An and his father, Xiao Boyong secretly felt distressed.

When Empress Leng Buding asked this question, he was startled, "Um... uh... I'm fine, I'm fine!"

The empress glanced at the ministers under the imperial steps, and nodded to Wu Qiuping.

The female guard commander stood up again and said, "Which adult has something to say?"

Originally, it was the task of the eunuch of the palace to sing, but because this dynasty is a female emperor, it was changed to be performed by the commander of the female guard.

Under the imperial steps, a person said, "The Minister of the Household Department, Qian, has arrived, and there is a book to play!"

A senior member of the second rank, wearing a scarlet official robe with a golden pheasant embroidered on his chest patch, squeezed out from the crowd.

This person was five feet tall, with a waist circumference of five feet, plus an extremely fat belly, the whole person rolled into the center of the hall like a meat ball.

"The minister's money has come, and there is a book to play."

Xiao Yuyi frowned, "Qian Aiqing, what do you have to say?"

The meat ball was too heavy, and it was extremely laborious to walk.

After just a few steps, he was standing under the imperial steps panting, his forehead was already sweating.

"Your Majesty, there is no money in the household account!"

Xiao Yuyi stood up with a "thump", "What? Last month's court meeting, didn't your household department say that you have 300 million imperial gold coins in your account?"

That meatball Shangshu Qian Yunlai squeezed out a wry smile on his fat face,
"Your Majesty, at the end of last month, there was a severe drought in several northern provinces. Only for disaster relief, I followed the imperial decree and allocated 100 million gold coins.

In addition to the salaries of the adults and the expenses of the reserve officials of the Imperial College, there are all kinds of miscellaneous things added up, and the 300 million gold coins can no longer make ends meet. "

Rouqiu Shangshu took a sneak peek at Generalissimo Han Renjie who stood at the head of the general on the right, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and continued,
"That's all, not including the military expenditure of the Xiliang Frontier Army."

Standing where he was, the old Marshal Han Renjie, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes.

Two cold eyes shot at Fatty Qian.

Fatty Qian felt cold all over, he didn't dare to look at him, and lowered his eyes.

A member of the general class shouted angrily, "The money is here, did you ship all the gold coins to your home?"

Fatty Qian turned pale with shock, and said in tears, "General Cao, don't spit blood, Qian Xing is sitting upright, how can he do such a corrupt thing."

The general surnamed Cao sneered, "Look at your corrupt belly, who would believe you if you were not corrupt?"

Xiao Moyi scolded lightly, "Okay, don't make noise, since the household department has no money, let's reduce the expenses in the imperial city, and use the gold coins that are squeezed out to serve as military expenses for Xiliang soldiers."

Han Renjie took the lead and knelt down, "Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous, and I will thank Your Majesty for your kindness on behalf of the border soldiers."
