humble minister

"Did you do everything I asked you to do?" In Jinyu Palace, Borg asked leisurely after tasting a bunch of grapes.

"En." Han Zhirou responded briefly, touched her protruding belly, and finally couldn't help asking: "Are you really going to deal with Lianxiang?"

"Why, you can't bear it?" Borg raised his eyebrows, his wandering eyes stayed on Han Zhirou's protruding belly for a moment, and then quickly moved away.

"I..." Han Zhirou was at a loss for words, it seemed that she couldn't successfully pretend to be herself in front of this person, maybe she really cared about it and got confused.She really cares about Lian Ying, if possible, she doesn't want to treat him as an enemy at all.It's just that it's too late to think so now, because she has already done what she should and shouldn't do.

"Don't worry, for the sake of the child in your belly, I won't kill Lian Ying. It would be better if he can be used by me, if not..." Borg paused deliberately, satisfied Seeing the other party holding his breath, "If I can't, I won't make it difficult for him. As long as you do things for me well, he will be yours in the future."

"Really?" Han Zhirou's eyes lit up, but she still couldn't fully believe what the devil said.

"Using the words of your Central Plains..." Borg smiled, "You are not joking."

"The baby in your womb is about to be born." After a while, it was Borg who spoke first.

"Yeah." Han Zhirou rubbed her belly unconsciously, "But no matter how fast, it won't be as fast as the queen." After all, the queen was pregnant a while before her, and the queen's due date will be soon, and now the whole palace is busy.As for her, it is estimated that there will be no one at that time.

"Hey, the birth of the queen's child is a big event, and it's also a good time. I hope everything can be settled before then. Zhirou, I believe in your ability, and you better not let me down." Bo As Ge said, he came in front of Han Zhirou, stretched out his hand to cover the raised belly, and seemed to caress gently, "As long as you do well, I will not treat this child badly."

"What's Liang Aiqing's meaning?" In the court hall, the already solemn atmosphere became even more serious and gloomy because of the cold scolding from the current emperor.

Shi Yu slammed the immediate memorial presented by Liang Xun in his hand, Yin Jiu's eyes swept over everyone present who jointly signed the letter, except for Liang Xun, no one dared to look directly at him, and everyone lowered their eyes head.But even so, those people did not have the slightest intention to overthrow the letter, even if they will face the wrath of the emperor's thunder next.

"I implore Your Majesty to accept the harsh words of the ministers this time, and don't let this become a joke for the world!" Liang Xun said loudly, every word came from the heart, making everyone who heard it sigh.

Lian Ying, who was at the head of the civil servants, faintly sensed something was wrong at this moment, and slowly clenched his lowered hand.The above memorial and Liang Xun's words made him unconsciously think of what Yao Li said before. Could it be that Mr. Liang also thought that he and Shi Yu...but their way of getting along during this time is indeed true. So unusual.

"What is the meaning of Mr. Liang's words, what is it a joke?" Shi Yu sneered, "Isn't it a joke that Liang Xun gathered this group of ministers to say what you said?"

"My humble ministers are sincere, and they are all for His Majesty's sake. I hope His Majesty will not disappoint you!" Liang Xun shouted, and the dignified elders of the three dynasties actually knelt down. I hope His Majesty will think about it!"

"Oh, I didn't expect that there would be a day when you would be taught by Mr. Liang. It's just that what you said in this memorial, Mr. Liang, is probably not true. I don't know if Mr. Liang can bear the crime of deceiving the emperor and lying? !"

"Your majesty must know whether the humble minister is lying or telling the truth. There is no impenetrable wall in this world, and paper can't cover the fire after all. Although the words from the palace cannot be completely believed, you must not completely disbelieve them. Even if your majesty Regardless of the emperor's face, you must also be concerned about the royal family's face!" Liang Xun knelt in front of the hall, raised his hands and slowly placed it on the official hat on top of his head, "Even if the old minister fights for this black gauze hat today, he has to say something bluntly—— Your Majesty and Lian Zuoxiang can give an explanation to the people of the world, and can set an example for the people of the world!"

This sentence is sonorous and powerful, and the original contest between the monarch and his subjects has been completely put on the bright side at this moment, and the face is lost.Everyone had different expressions, but they were all somewhat ugly, which showed that everyone had heard a lot of these rumors.

Shi Yu squeezed the armrest of the dragon chair tightly, his eyes dim and gloomy, the people in this palace are so good, the people arranged by Borg are so good, they actually spread all this outside the palace.But that's good too, it's more convenient for him to find out these spies, isn't it?

His fierce gaze swept over everyone present, and when he touched Lian Ying, who was about to stand out, his face was pale, Shi Yu raised his voice abruptly: "Liang Xun, you keep saying that Lian Aiqing and I have misbehaved because of you. Do you often invite Lian Aiqing to get together in the palace? Then I might as well tell all Aiqing that I and Lian Aiqing gather to discuss business matters. Do the emperors of all dynasties even have the right to privately discuss business matters with their ministers? Are they all gone?"

Shi Yu can be sure that the sophistry of the emperor and ministers in the court today is probably designed by Borg to deal with Ah Ying. Although I don't know what else he will do, it is safer to let Ah Ying say nothing so far. , that's why he rushed to speak before Lian Ying could speak.

"Your Majesty has any serious business, so I can openly and honestly bring it up in this court, and the ministers are also very willing to share your majesty's worries. Why does Your Majesty just find Sir Lian alone?" .However, Liang Xun didn't say anything about it. Anyway, the other party is the emperor. It's not wise to show the emperor too much face, although he can't be called giving the emperor face now.

Shi Yu's complexion completely sank, this Liang Xun was so stubborn, it was really hateful, if he didn't know that he was sincere and loyal, I'm afraid he wouldn't have kept the other party talking until now.

"Why, is Master Liang also very interested in the private matters that I and Lian Aiqing talked about?" Shi Yu smiled instead of anger, but his voice was very gloomy and terrifying.

"If it's really an important private matter, then the old minister would not dare to pry into it, but His Majesty's words may be evasive, so the old minister has to ask one more question..." Liang Xun took off the official hat on his head completely, fearlessly sharp Looking straight at the Ninth Five-Year Supreme on the Dragon Throne, he was completely willing to fight, "What is the private matter that His Majesty and Lord Lian are discussing?"

"Presumptuous!" Shi Yu was so angry that he directly picked up the memorial in his hand and smashed it at Liang Xun's forehead, messing up the meticulously combed hair there, "Liang Xun, Liang Xun, I advise you, Don't rely on the old to sell the old, and don't forget the principle of 'one emperor, one courtier'!"

After Shi Yu finished speaking, his cold gaze swept over everyone present, except for the two prime ministers on the left and right and Liang Xun who was already kneeling, everyone in the audience hurriedly knelt down and bowed down, calling out: "Your Majesty, calm down! "

Lian Ying's gaze gradually darkened as he watched the crowd, not as gentle as before.

Ridiculous, simply ridiculous, these people!

At this moment, he was a little thankful that his father had resigned earlier, otherwise he didn't know how angry he would be when he saw this scene.Of course Lian Ying knew that his relationship with Shi Yu was too much for Meng Lang before, but he was not stupid. It must not be a coincidence that the news that was only circulated in the palace spread to the outside world and happened to reach the ears of this upright Mr. Liang. He knew that someone was going to deal with him, and it could also play a role in damaging the majesty of the emperor.

This person...isn't it Borg who can't justify it?

"The old minister only knows to 'seek things in his place'." Liang Xun was not moved at all.

"Okay, okay, okay, what a 'seeking things in his position', so I have wrongly blamed Aiqing for being loyal to the emperor and patriotic?" Shi Yu said three good things in a row, and he almost couldn't applaud.

"If your majesty really doesn't want to share with the minister what is the private matter, then the minister will not force it." After a while, Liang Xun seemed to let go of his mouth and stopped holding on, "but your majesty is unwilling to say, But the old minister has a private matter that he wants to say in this court."

"Say." At this time, Shi Yu's face softened a little, but what Liang Xun said immediately made his face even uglier than before.

"I implore Your Majesty to marry my daughter Zhilan and Lord Lian."

Liang Xun's words of being neither humble nor overbearing surprised everyone. If His Majesty had that kind of meaning in treating the left minister as rumored, then Lord Liang's words would be tantamount to robbing the emperor!This is fatal, right?It really is a remonstrance with death.

Li Qing, who was listening quietly the whole time, couldn't help but frowned at this moment. Liang Xun's move was too radical, but it was also effective.If His Majesty refuses to agree, then the rumors in the palace will be confirmed, then the people in the world will really ridicule, and the royal family will lose face; if His Majesty agrees, then the rumors will naturally be broken without attacking, and Liang Xun's move will be regarded as preservation Royal face, but his daughter's happiness may be ruined, and Ah Ying will be very sad.

No matter what the possibility is, Liang Xun's actions today have angered the current emperor, and there will inevitably be gaps between the monarch and his ministers in the future.Now the contest between the monarch and his ministers seems to be a farce, but the consequences are unpredictable. I don't know who arranged it, and it is clearly against the Northern Dynasty, against the emperor and the left minister.

So will his beloved Majesty agree?

Maybe not.

Li Qing secretly glanced at Shi Yu and Lian Ying, lowered his eyes and thought deeply: His Majesty will not make Ah Ying sad, but he will not refuse to agree decisively, such consequences cannot be borne.So what will His Majesty do?

"Hey, I didn't expect Liang Aiqing's thoughts to be similar to mine's." After a long time, just when everyone thought that the emperor was going to order to reprimand Master Liang, His Majesty smiled and said such a sentence instead.

Before everyone could react, Shi Yu went on to "smile" and said: "Actually, the purpose of inviting Lian Aiqing to the palace was to discuss with Aiqing about his marriage with the princess. At first, he asked Aiqing whether he agreed, and then it was to discuss The details of the marriage. It's because Min Rong is thin-skinned that I don't tell all the Ai Qings about it, and it's inconvenient for her daughter's family to speak out in this court."

After Shi Yu finished speaking, he saw that Liang Xun still had doubts on his face, so he looked directly at Lian Ying and asked, "Ai Qing, don't you think so?"

Lian Ying was startled - what? !
