Zhu Jingyuan was stunned by his scolding.
In his impression, no emperor in the past dynasties spoke to his ministers like this!
"In the eyes of the Emperor, I...I am a slave?" He was so shocked that he stuttered.
"Why are you not a slave?" Emperor Xiao roared angrily, "Your food and clothing all come from the salary I give you! You do whatever I ask you to do. How dare you show your teeth and talk too much with me here? Yes, are you tired of living? You idiot!"
Zhu Jingyuan was dumbfounded by the scolding.
Other courtiers were also shocked by Emperor Xiao's remarks!
During the two hundred years since the founding of the Xiao Dynasty, no one of the many emperors dared to say such a thing in front of the courtiers!
The ministers are indeed used by the emperor and live on the salary paid by the emperor.
There is nothing wrong with this.
However, ministers are ministers after all, and cannot be compared with eunuchs and maids. Even if you think these people are slaves in your heart, you can't say it so straightforwardly!
But Emperor Xiao said it so openly!
He was not a good-tempered king to begin with. He was eccentric, irritable, cruel and murderous, and could do anything when he was impulsive.
If someone offends him, it is common for him to draw his sword and kill without any reason.
After all, before this, several officials and censors who were known for their uprightness had died at the hands of this emperor.
There are those great grievances who died in vain, and the ministers standing above the court and following Emperor Xiao are all sycophants.
They would never say anything that Emperor Xiao didn't like, and they would never do anything that Emperor Xiao didn't like.
These people were used to shrinking their heads, but when they saw Emperor Xiao going crazy, they all shut their mouths.
But the dissatisfaction and resentment in his heart suddenly increased.
They studied hard for years in a cold window, passed five levels and killed six generals, and those who finally stood on top of this court were somewhat complacent and proud.
Now, Emperor Xiao puts them on the same level as eunuchs and maids, and they have become slaves. How can they accept it?
There was an undercurrent surging in the courtiers' hearts, but Emperor Xiao was not aware of it and instead felt extremely comfortable.
I have to say that being yourself happily is a joy. The feeling of abandoning those messy rules, doing whatever you want, and speaking freely is as good as heaven!
"Who has any objections about Concubine Shu?" he asked condescendingly.
What responded to him was dead silence.
"You have no objections, right?" Emperor Xiao snorted softly, "Then, from now on, whenever I come to court, Concubine Shu will also come to the court to listen to the government! I don't care about the rules of my ancestors, this is my new rule! From now on, you will follow my rules!"
As soon as these words came out, the hall became even quieter, and even Jiang Fei and the others didn't know what to say.
However, this silence is clearly a kind of silent resistance.
Emperor Xiao was furious, but Concubine Shu was very sober. She knew very well that Emperor Xiao's words had lost people's hearts, so she hurriedly made up for it with words.
"Your Majesty, please don't say angry words to the adults, they will take it seriously!" She stepped forward with a sweet smile and gently pinched his palm, "There is no room for a woman like me in this court. Nasty? In fact, the reason why I am staying in the compartment today is not what you adults think..."
She turned to the ministers and explained: "It's just because the emperor has suffered from a headache recently, and I'm afraid that he will do it again when he goes to court, so I'm waiting in the cubicle, ready to serve the soup at any time!"
"Ah...so that's it!" Jiang Fei smiled dryly and stepped forward to cooperate, "It's strange that the emperor suddenly lost his temper. I think it was because he had another headache?"
Emperor Xiao was pinched by Concubine Shu, and now he woke up. He knew that he had made a mistake. When he saw Jiang Fei walking up the steps, he hurriedly walked down the steps. He held his forehead and frowned: "It hurts again! It's all because of the prince's anger." ! Today’s morning meeting, let’s stop here for now! Let’s all disperse!”
With a flick of his robe sleeves, he picked up Concubine Shu and was about to leave.
From the beginning of the court meeting until now, he has always been beaten by this son.
He obviously set up a trap at every step, but ended up losing at every step.
.
For some reason, he had an ominous premonition that Xiao Lin knew everything he had done behind Xiao Lin's back, including poisoning!
When he thought about this, he felt extremely panicked.
At this moment, I just want to end it all quickly, so as not to be pulled into a deeper whirlpool by Xiao Lin!
However, what he didn't expect was that Xiao Lin actually took a step forward and blocked his way!
Emperor Xiao was already so angry that his whole body was about to explode!
"Bastard, are you going to rebel?"
"Father, why do you always say these things?" Xiao Lin looked at him blankly, with an innocent and sad look on his face, "I just want to ask about your physical condition! Your condition is exactly the same as before your mother got sick! Father, are you also infected by the corpse poison?"
When Concubine Shu heard the word "corpse poison", her heart skipped a beat and she blurted out: "Your Highness, please be careful what you say! Do you think anyone can get such a weird disease? Your Majesty, he is the True Dragon Emperor. , he is the chosen one! Xie Mansion was punished by heaven, how can it be the same?"
"Whether the Xie Mansion has been punished by God or poisoned by someone, Concubine Shu, no one knows better than you, right?" Xiao Lin sneered.
"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Concubine Shu's eyes immediately turned red.
"You are the one who poisoned the Queen Mother and the Xie Mansion!" Xiao Lin stopped following her and said coldly, "Originally, I was not sure, but after seeing the situation of my father today, I am sure. Oh! Xie Rou, you are so poisonous that you actually used drugs to control your father and use it for your own advantage!"
"You..." Xie Rou's heart shrank when he poked the painful spot!
How does Xiao Lin know this?
Could it be that he has already found something?
No! impossible!
The corpse poison was just like the tempered bones, they were extraordinary things, and they were definitely not something ordinary people like him could recognize!
She thought so in her heart, but her body couldn't stop trembling!
Since Xiao Lin, who was poisoned by the bone-tempering poison, can recover as before, it means that Su Li's medical skills are so advanced that she cannot estimate them!
If the bone-tempering poison can be cured, then the corpse poison can also be cured!
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but tremble with fear, her mind was spinning like a flywheel, but she had a pitiful look on her face, and she cried on Emperor Xiao's shoulders. .z.br>
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me! You are here so well now, but His Highness the Crown Prince is making alarmist remarks! He wants to kill me!"
When Emperor Xiao saw his beloved woman crying, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken. The rage in his heart surged again. He suddenly raised his hand and hit Xiao Lin headlessly and facelessly!
"You scoundrel! How dare you say such heart-wrenching words! Get out of here!"
Xiao Lin was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but he didn't resist. He just knelt down and stubbornly hugged his legs, not allowing him to leave!
"Father, please wake up! I have evidence to prove that Concubine Shu has evil intentions! Someone, bring them here!"
