Chapter 113: A world where only the right minister is injured
"Why is the Left Prime Minister angry?" The Right Prime Minister saw the Left Prime Minister getting angry and asked with gloating.
"Hmph! Why do you ask, Lord Right Prime Minister, knowingly?" The Left Prime Minister stopped and stared at the Right Prime Minister coldly.
"Oh?" The right minister's face was full of confusion, "How can the left minister say this?"
Before the left prime minister could reply, the old general not far away spoke to persuade him, "You two old guys, before the emperor opened his mouth, you started to quarrel. Fortunately, you are still the prime minister of our country, why is this... "
"Haha!" Before the old general finished speaking, the left prime minister directed a mouthful of thick phlegm towards the old general's face, "We are talking, why is it your turn to interrupt?!"
The old general hurriedly got up and dodged to the side, but after all, he was already in his sixties. Even the former leader in martial arts could not escape the ravages of time. In addition, when he was young, he followed the emperor to fight everywhere, and his body had already deteriorated. Not as good as before.
But after all, he still had a foundation, so the old general easily avoided the mouthful of phlegm, but the table could not be avoided.
Everyone clearly saw the mouthful of phlegm, drawing a perfect parabola, and landed on the old general's desk with a squeak.
The seats in the entire dining hall are arranged according to official positions. The seat of the Right Prime Minister is right next to the old general, so I look at it more carefully. Looking at the thick phlegm on the old general’s table, I feel a burst of liver stagnation, especially that mouth. The phlegm was thick and sticky, full of yellow soup, and was indescribably nauseating.
"Wow! I'm so angry!" The old general also thought he had a bad temper. He had been an official for decades and had never been wronged like this before. He suddenly jumped up with his beard blown and eyes wide open. He ignored the friendship between his colleagues and held his arm. Sleeve rushed towards Zuo Xiang.
The Prime Minister on the right was very happy when he saw this. This was a great opportunity for dog to bite dog. The King of Qi was flirting with others in front of Meng Ruoxi. The Prime Minister on the Left, an old man, was furious when he saw his daughter being offended. ! But it can also be seen from this that Meng Ruoxi is indeed the old guy's favorite.
He just picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, preparing to enjoy it leisurely. Unexpectedly, he noticed a gaze staring at him. He immediately held the tea cup and froze in place.
You don't need to think about it, but you also know that the look is from the emperor. This is to calm the turmoil! The thought of facing Xia Jie's anger made me feel dizzy, but I couldn't pretend to be mute, otherwise I would ruin the emperor's face and even complain to myself, so I had to hurry up unwillingly. Stop Xia Jie.
"Lao Xia! Lao Xia!" The right prime minister stood up quickly and stopped the old general first, "Old Xia! It's understandable that the left prime minister is like this. How about you just be patient?"
"Get out of my way!" The old general was not afraid of anyone who came. He slapped his ear directly into the face of the right prime minister, "Grandma, you are a bitch! You have to be patient and bear with yourself. I will not tolerate his bad habits!"
"You! You! You are so stupid!" The right minister was slapped to the ground by the old general Yiji Ershu. His cheeks swelled up at a clearly visible speed, which showed how angry the old general was.
The right prime minister covered his cheek in pain, not caring about his own face, cursed angrily, and immediately started wailing.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You have to make the decision for me!" The Right Prime Minister burst into tears and cried. "Your Majesty, look at this prince. He has the demeanor of a general. The one who opens his mouth and keeps silent is me." , he doesn’t take you seriously at all!”
The three old immortals were fighting with each other. Which of the ministers dared to act like them? Anyone who dared to do this would have been dragged down by the emperor and killed!
Therefore, these ministers hid far away, fearing that they would be harmed. They were all eating melons in silence, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. The speed at which the old fox, the Right Prime Minister, changed his face was really obvious.
"Hmph!" The old general snorted coldly, "After all these years, your Majesty still doesn't know my temper? Didn't you come here to beat me?! I have lived for so many years, and I have seen people looking for someone, but not anyone. There are still people looking for a beating!"
"You! You! You!" The right minister pointed angrily at the old general. You stood there for a long time, but couldn't breathe. You were so angry that you fainted.
"Hmph!" The left prime minister snorted coldly, "What a show! The dignified right prime minister can't even speak to an old man who has never read a book! You'd better go back to school and start over again!"
"Bah! You old thing! Who said you haven't read a book?" The old general was not happy to hear this. "Don't think that just because you have read the books of sages for a few years, you feel superior to me! What happened just now has not happened to me. I’m settling a score with you, an old guy! Do you still have the nerve to talk?!”
"Hey!" Zuo Xiang looked surprised, "You old bastard still knows how to be superior to others. I didn't expect you to know how to read?!"
"That's right!" The old general heard the Zuo Xiang's praise and stroked his beard with a proud look on his face, "Zuo Xiang, you still have a sharp eye for pearls. Unlike some people who have read books about sages for several years, it doesn't even hurt to curse. It's itchy! I know it's straight, it's straight." After saying that, he looked at the right minister who was lying on the ground and was killed with disdain on his face.
The melon-eaters below were speechless for a while. They didn't know whether the old general was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. They didn't even hear the left prime minister's sarcasm.
The emperor just felt that his head was hurting now. These old guys knew that he was re-employing them and could not bear to deal with their serious crimes, so they took advantage of their high position and power to behave like rogues.
"Okay!" The emperor looked at the old general who was stroking his beard proudly, rubbed his forehead in pain, and stopped their quarrel.
"You old thing, you are still a dignified general, how come you didn't even hear the ridicule in the left minister's words?" The emperor became more and more angry as he spoke, slammed the table heavily and angrily said: "You still have a sharp eye for pearls? ! I think you are just a pig! A stupid pig that cannot be stupid anymore!"
"It's not that bad, right!" The old general was scolded by the emperor, lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, "I'm better than a pig after all! A pig won't give birth to such a beautiful daughter to be your wife."
"What did you say?!" The emperor's eyes narrowed, "What? Are you questioning me?"
The old general shrank his neck and did not dare to speak. You are the emperor, I am the minister, you are the biggest here, everything you say is right!
"Huh!" The emperor saw that the old general had stopped talking, like a turtle with a shrunken head. He snorted coldly, ignored him, and looked at the left prime minister.
"And you! Left Prime Minister! We have made a fuss, but are you still angry in your heart now?!"
Zuo Xiang bowed and saluted, and he wanted to speak, but the emperor stopped him, "I know you are still unwilling, but I have already agreed with them. Besides, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so why do you care so much? What do they want? Just let them be.”
"But..." Zuo Xiang still wanted to defend himself, but glanced at Meng Ruoxi. Seeing that there was already a quarrel here, her eyes were still on King Qi, and she had not looked here, so she couldn't help but sigh. , bowed helplessly to thank him.
never mind! Just let them be! As long as Meng Ruoxi is happy, that's fine. I just hope that she won't get to the point of no return because of this in the future.
After finally dealing with two difficult figures, the emperor felt exhausted all over and looked feebly at the right minister who was pretending to be unconscious on the ground. "Okay! My right minister, please get up quickly!"
When the right minister heard what the emperor said, he knew that he could no longer pretend. He quickly got up, knelt on the ground, covered his cheek with one hand, and cried: "Your Majesty, look at the miserable appearance of this old minister. This place is... In Hanfeng Temple, the Empress Dowager's birthday was approaching soon. The old minister was afraid that they were being tactful, so he tried to persuade them kindly. How could he have thought that that old man Xia Jie would attack the old minister without saying a word? How could he have any sense of comradeship in his heart? ! Please ask the emperor to make the decision for me!"
"Well, cough!" The emperor cleared his throat. Seeing what his right minister said was so miserable, he felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't expect that his father-in-law would have such a bad temper today, so he just slapped his right minister in the same light. slap.
It is true that Zuo Xiang went too far, but it was excusable. It seemed that the imperial concubine needed to discipline Yuntao. She still acted like this in front of him, without any sense of discipline.
After coming back to his senses and looking at the swollen cheeks of the Right Prime Minister, the Emperor was a little embarrassed, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, your injury is serious. Let's do this. I will ask General Xia to send you to the imperial doctor for treatment first. As for how to deal with General Xia, let me think about it first!"
To be honest, he is really difficult to deal with as his father-in-law. His two beloved concubines are not easy to deal with. If she knew that she was going to deal with her father because of this matter, she would not be able to deal with her father these days. Don’t even think about peace!
When the right minister saw this, he also knew that he would not be able to get justice in this matter, so he had no choice but to admit his defeat and kowtow to express his gratitude full of grievance.
"Okay! Dear ladies, please eat quickly! It won't taste good if it's cold! These are Hanfeng Temple's classic dishes, and the Queen Mother can't stop loving them!"
Everyone looked at the old general and the right minister leaving one after another, and they all had a thought in their hearts. If two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. What's more, a mighty lion appeared halfway, so it's good that he didn't die! really! The only one who is hurt in this world is the Right Prime Minister!
And this is the reason why the entire dining hall was silent when the imperial concubine came in.
No one wanted to touch the Zuo Prime Minister's bad luck. Although the Zuo Prime Minister was eating his food slowly, the many experts present could see that his anger had not dissipated, and the initiator of all this It was King Qi and the others who were waiting for Xue Ruyue to eat.
The atmosphere of the entire dining hall did not change just because the Queen Mother came in with the help of the Queen Mother. It was still so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
The Queen Mother was surprised. As soon as she sat down for the Queen Mother, she started talking to the Emperor in a low voice and asking questions.
