You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?

"Your Majesty...it's Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty has come to court?"

Seeing Ye Xinglan coming in all directions, all the civil and military officials around him made way and saluted. Some ministers even knelt down directly, with tears streaming down their old faces.

"My dears, long time no see."

Ye Xinglan was all smiles as he enthusiastically greeted all the officials and even personally helped a minister who was kneeling on the ground to his feet.

Liu Yuntian stood up and stood where he was, stroking his chin and observing the expressions of the officials. Just when Ye Xinglan passed by Liu Ziqing, he deliberately stopped and exchanged greetings for a while before going back to the dragon platform.

"Mr. Liu, you have worked hard these past few years. I am very pleased."

Liu Yuntian understood what the other party meant. It seemed that the other party really wanted to belittle himself to elevate him, Liu Yuntian, as his father said. He had just praised each other for their business in Tongxian Palace yesterday, and today he was going to show off in front of all the ministers.

"His Majesty..."

Just as he was about to speak, Ye Xinglan's voice immediately covered him, "I have been in seclusion for the past few years. Thanks to Lord Liu, my Daliang has become so prosperous. Lord Liu, please sit down and talk!"

This move is quite good, and the words are very well chosen. First, I recognize your achievements, but it does not mean that you have done so well. It is because I am in seclusion and let you govern on my behalf. If I were to do it, of course I could do it.

Then he addressed him as Liu Gong. If an emperor called his subjects Liu Gong in private, there would be nothing wrong with that. It only showed that the emperor admired him very much.

But this is the court.

How would other ministers view Liu Gong, who is always mentioned in his three sentences? You are so powerful and accomplished that you don't even take the emperor seriously?

Finally, I let you, Mr. Liu, sit down first, while I, the emperor, am still standing. Okay, the title of powerful and treacherous minister is now directly hung on your head.

Liu Yuntian's pupils flickered, and he chuckled, "Your Majesty, you are joking. Your Majesty was in seclusion, and I was acting as the government official. Now that Your Majesty has come out of seclusion, please remove this python chair."

As he was about to walk off the stage, he was grabbed by the other party the next moment. Puzzled, he turned around and saw Ye Xinglan with a smile on his face. "What are you talking about, Mr. Liu? If others knew about this, they would think that I cannot tolerate meritorious officials. Mr. Liu, just sit down."

Then he came to the Dragon Platform, glanced at the ministers and deliberately raised his voice, "With Lord Liu's contribution to Daliang, he should sit on this python chair!"

If it were in the past, the ministers in the audience would have already shouted that his majesty was wise, but now that His Majesty has come out of seclusion and has the cultivation level of Nascent Soul, it is hard to say who will be the master of Daliang today.

Five years ago, your majesty was still a king who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and was depressed every day. When he went to court, he would only say: "If there is something to report, I will report it. If there is nothing to report, I will dismiss the court. My dear ministers, please do it."

Under Liu Yuntian's vigorous reorganization, Daliang now has not only stood out from the mortal dynasty, but also given birth to the embryonic form of an immortal dynasty, which is comparable to the power of third-rate sects.

In terms of contribution, it can be said that he, as an emperor, won simply by doing nothing. At the same time, he sucked Liu Yuntian's blood all the way to the Nascent Soul stage, and was a complete drag.

But in terms of status, he is the orthodox emperor of Daliang, and now he has the Nascent Soul cultivation level, so it is of course legitimate for him to take power again.

Now it all depends on Liu Yuntian's attitude. Ye Xinglan's words not only praise Liu Yuntian a little more so that he can be thrown down harder in the future, but also test the ministers and even Liu Yuntian to see how much value his words have.

This put the ministers in a dilemma. Everyone looked at each other, sizing up each other's expressions. If they supported His Majesty's decision, they would be boosting the prestige of the powerful ministers. If they did not support it, they would be going against His Majesty and would easily offend Liu Yuntian.

Everyone was trying to figure out His Majesty's intentions, but they didn't dare to act rashly. Be it Liu Yuntian or the emperor, they couldn't afford to offend them. One wrong step would end everything.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. I am just doing my duty. I still say what I said before. Now that Your Majesty has come out of retreat, this python chair should be removed."

After saying that, she walked down the dragon platform without looking back and stood beside Liu Ziqing. She wanted to play the role of a green tea girl and gain hatred by playing the role of a pitiful girl? I'm afraid she was overthinking it.

I won't fall for it!

"Since Mr. Liu is unwilling, then so be it." Ye Xinglan sat back on the dragon throne with a regretful expression on his face, as if he had been rejected by a cold butt.

After sitting down, he straightened his body and spoke in a more dignified voice, "My dear ministers, do you have anything to report?"

"Your Majesty~~~"

As soon as Ye Xinglan finished speaking, a minister with a head full of white hair came out from the queue crying, as if he had suffered a great injustice.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

However, before the minister could start crying, Liu Ziqing took the lead and stood in front with his hands clasped.

Ye Xinglan was slightly startled, with a hint of doubt on his face, but he quickly suppressed his doubtful expression and said, "Since Prime Minister Liu has something to say, let Prime Minister Liu speak first."

"Your Majesty, I am old and I would like to ask for your permission to retire and return home. I hope your Majesty will grant my permission."

Ye Xinglan raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, and immediately glanced at Liu Yuntian, then asked with concern, "Prime Minister Liu is only two years younger than me, how can he be old?"

Liu Ziqing glanced at Liu Yuntian and said, "Now the court is full of powerful officials, rotten wood serves as officials, and beasts eat salaries. There is no place for old officials to use their talents. It is better to return home and enjoy the blessings while you are still alive."

"install?"

Liu Yuntian opened his mouth wide and looked at his father in surprise. It seemed that these words were directed at him? Not sure, let's listen again.

"Your Majesty is a cultivator, and now he looks like a young man, but I am just an ordinary man..."

I am afraid that the world will not be in chaos!

Liu Yuntian cursed in his heart, what about the agreement that there is no hatred between father and son? What about the agreement that you won't harm me? This elbow is thrown away!

Isn't this clearly telling Ye Xinglan: You are no longer a mortal emperor, you are an immortal cultivator, and you have to vigorously reorganize the court?

You are so good, Liu Ziqing, so noble! You retreated bravely at the peak of your career, and even stepped on your own son while retreating!

If Ye Xinglan was truly a wise ruler, how could he have nearly destroyed the great Liang Dynasty?

Now that the sky is clear and the rain has stopped, he feels that he is capable again and begins to confuse the big king with the small one. Not only do you not try to dissuade him, but you are also adding fuel to the fire?

"Prime Minister Liu! You and I have been king and subject for a long time. We have supported each other all the way. Now that I am an immortal cultivator, how could I abandon you?"

Seeing Ye Xinglan's sympathetic and embarrassed expression, Liu Yuntian suddenly felt nauseous. Keep pretending!
