Looking at Su Xiang's appearance, it must be something bad.
The ministers all fell silent, waiting for Su Xiang's next words.
"Do you still remember the incident of Dr. Liu hanging himself?"
As soon as Su Xiang said this, all the ministers nodded. It had only been two days, how could they not remember it? They had doubts about this matter and had come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inquire about it before, but they returned without success.
Could it be that what Su Xiang is talking about is related to this matter?
Your Majesty sent Imperial Physician Liu to Yu Lingyun, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments. This matter must have something to do with Your Majesty, and Prime Minister Su is so solemn. I'm afraid it's not simple!
"Master Prime Minister, just tell me, we are ready."
"Yes, Mr. Xiang."
Seeing this, Su Xiang said leisurely, "This matter started from the day when Your Majesty sent Dr. Liu to the prison of the Ministry of Punishments... So Your Majesty is a woman, not a man. She is a woman disguised as a man."
As soon as Su Xiang finished speaking, the whole place fell silent, leaving only the sound of the ministers swallowing saliva unconsciously.
They collectively lost their voices!
Seeing this, Su Xiang, his son and Yu Lingyun stopped talking and slowly waited for these ministers to react.
"!!!"
"God!"
"...Your Majesty...Your Majesty...Your Majesty is...a woman!? How is that possible!? This is impossible!!!"
"How is this possible, Your Majesty?"
"My mother!"
A minister who thought he was hallucinating pinched his thigh hard in an attempt to wake up, but he pinched himself until he screamed on the spot, with tears bursting out from his eyes, "Hey! It hurts! It's real! It's real." Yes! I heard it right!!"
This scream woke up the ministers who were immersed in their own world.
Everyone turned their attention to Su Xiang at this moment, in disbelief.
This is simply appalling!
The most noble Majesty in the world is actually disguised as a man! ? Are you sure you're not kidding! ?
Seeing this, Su Xiang was not impatient at all, but said again, "Your Majesty is indeed a woman, there is no doubt about it!"
There was a loud bang, and the minister with poor mental endurance sat down on the ground, his eyes dull.
It is simply unbelievable that a woman became the emperor and disguised herself as a man for so many years without being discovered. To these conservative ministers, it was really nothing more than a bomb.
"Oh my God! God wants our lives!"
"Queen Mother Chen! It must be the evil Queen Dowager Chen who did this! How could she be like this!? How could she be like this!"
"Dayu finally got on the right track, why!? Why on earth!?"
"Dayu is over!"
"Late Emperor! I am so ashamed of you!"
"A woman in power is a sign of chaos for the country!"
Exclamations came and went.
Su Xiang and the other three quietly watched the reactions of the ministers.
Some cried and scolded Empress Dowager Chen.
Some are silent.
There are also those who are calm and calm after coming back to their senses.
From these facial expressions, it can be seen that most ministers disapprove and are not optimistic about a woman becoming emperor.
The other part is relatively silent, and it is impossible to tell what they are thinking.
"Everyone, please listen to me." Su Xiang said in time.
"I know that everyone is extremely upset at the moment, but Her Majesty's disguising herself as a man was not something she wanted. She has had no right to choose since she was born. The only one to blame for all this is Queen Mother Chen. It was the woman who bullied her. Your Majesty concealed His Majesty’s true gender, so when Your Majesty grows up, he can only make one wrong step after another. After all, no one can bear the crime of deceiving the King. Therefore, we have no reason to blame Your Majesty. Do you understand? "
Su Xiang couldn't sleep well these past few days because of this matter. He always had a headache when he thought about it. Today, he finally felt better after telling it.
But he was also worried that some ministers would take advantage of the situation and blame His Majesty for this crime.
Based on his deeper understanding of His Majesty today, if any minister embarrasses her because of this matter, he may not be able to get over it.
"Alas! What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true! How can we blame His Majesty? Your Majesty is also innocent!"
"It's just that after knowing this news, I can't help but feel panicked. How can Dayu be able to withstand the slightest disturbance now."
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, it's Empress Dowager Chen's fault, how can we indiscriminately blame it on Your Majesty?"
What the ministers did not say was that the Lord did not dare to blame them! Didn’t you see the terrifying scene in the morning? It’s not like they are tired of living and don’t want to live anymore.
Of course, there were also a few ministers with ugly faces who hesitated to speak, and their brows were so furrowed that they could kill a fly.
Su Xiang naturally saw these.
"Master Xiang, what do you think about this matter?"
When Su Xiang heard this, he looked at the Minister of War, Ji Guang, who was speaking. He sighed and said, "Nowadays, Da Yu is suffering from internal and external troubles and cannot withstand the slightest storm. At present, we can only hide this matter. Ling Kingdom and Feng Lan Kingdom already know about your majesty." His true identity will definitely make a fuss about this matter, causing civil strife in Dayu and panic among the people, so we must take precautions."
"Yes, the two countries are now eyeing the Great Yu. We can't mess up our position to avoid falling into the enemy's plan. Your Majesty, that's very good! Apart from the fact that she is a woman, she has learned martial arts during this period, and which prince has Can it be compared? In such a special period, it is not appropriate to have more twists and turns. You may wish to think more about whether this is the truth?" Yu Lingyun, the Minister of Punishment, also stood up and echoed at this moment.
He is on His Majesty's side. In his opinion, only Your Majesty can restore Dayu's decline. He also knows the future development and the trends of enemy countries, which will play a huge role in their defense of Dayu, and His Majesty's Although his personality is not good, he can at least listen to the opinions of ministers and is not opinionated. Apart from being lazy and afraid of trouble, he seems to have no shortcomings.
"I know everyone's concerns. Although a woman has never been in power since ancient times, Your Majesty is different. She is not an ordinary woman. She is very strong! Not only in terms of force, but also in culture and governance. She is even more talented in business. Your Majesty is a man. Is she a woman? It is no longer important to the current Dayu, as long as that person is the current His Majesty, what we need is an emperor who can lead us to defend Dayu and protect Dayu, not others." Su Xiangbian As he said this, he looked at the ministers and saw that some of them, who had originally looked strange and ugly, became visibly better after hearing these words.
yes! What they want is someone who can protect Dayu.
As long as Great Yu does not destroy the country and the people of the world can live in peace, what importance does it matter who will be the emperor?
Isn’t this what their efforts during this period are for?
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is right. Your Majesty is both civilized and military, and has unparalleled wisdom and bravery. There are few people in the world who can compare with him. We are extremely lucky to have such a majesty. How can we despise him because he is a woman?"
"That is, although Your Majesty is a woman, nothing you have done during this period has been frank, neat and decisive. As a man, I am ashamed of myself. Women are not inferior to men, and women can also be respected!"
