Xiao Yi passed by the ministers one by one.

The original owner was tempted by Li Qiuya every day and was indifferent to court affairs. He even knew very little about the ministers in the political hall and knew few of them.

What a waste.

He didn't say no courtesy, so everyone could only keep bowing.

Just like that, they felt that the current prince was very different from before, and his body became tense involuntarily.

"No gift."

"I just heard that you said that the drought in Shaanxi Road is serious?" Xiao Yi asked calmly.

Cai Jin hesitated for a moment. As soon as the prince arrived, he made a small show of force. He might be looking for trouble. How should he deal with this?

Xiao Yi looked at the middle-aged man wearing a red robe standing next to Xiao Ce. The original owner recognized him.

"Cai Shenzheng, could it be said that Gu heard it wrong?" Xiao Yi asked coldly.

Cai Jin gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice: "Report to Your Highness, this is indeed the case."

Xiao Yi said slowly: "Gu is the crown prince who supervises the country. It is clearly written in the emperor's imperial edict that all military and state affairs must be handled by Gu. Seeing Gu is like the emperor himself. And the drought in Shaanxi Road is such a major event, you If you don’t wait to send the memorial to the East Palace, but instead discuss it on your own in the Political Hall, what do you want to do?”

"Are you planning to rebel?!"

Cai Jin was shocked.

The ministers also looked at Xiao Yi standing at the door of the political hall in disbelief, the morning sun shining through him into the hall.

It looked like Xiao Yi was bathing in the morning sun, and his whole body was exuding a dense light.

As a result, Xiao Yi's figure looked even taller.

And there is a strong aura.

Xiao Ce also didn't expect Xiao Yi to come directly to the Political Affairs Hall and put the memorial on the table.

He could only bite the bullet and explain: "Brother, after my father became seriously ill, the court meeting was suspended. State affairs can only be discussed and decided in the political hall. Otherwise, the political affairs will be neglected, the country will be unstable, and the people will be angry and resentful. Daqian will surely face Greater internal trouble."

"As time goes by, it becomes normal to discuss and decide state affairs in the political hall. Brother, you only got the power to supervise the country last night. We are not used to it yet, so..."

Xiao Yi looked at Xiao Ce coldly. This second-in-command was able to seduce and take advantage of his own princess, and even thought of poisoning himself. He was a cruel and ruthless person.

He didn't believe a word he said.

"Yeah?"

Seeing Xiao Yi's expressionless face and listening to his cold tone, Xiao Ce was immediately frightened, and was frightened back by his next words.

But Xiao Yi's next words made his hands and feet feel cold and extremely humiliating.

"Did you know that any prince who reads memorials without his father's permission can be punished for treason?"

Xiao Yi is the emperor who personally conveyed the imperial edict and the power to supervise the country. He is also the prince of Daqian and the crown prince of Daqian.

Whether it is justice, the ancestral system, or morality and ethics, it is all justified.

Although Xiao Ce is the king of Qin and a bachelor of Tianzhang Pavilion, he does not have the right to participate in political affairs.

However, he stood up and said honestly: "Brother, Daqian is currently in internal and external troubles. Since I am the prince of Daqian, I should care about the affairs of the country and contribute my part to stabilize Daqian."

"I have a clear conscience. If brother wants to be held accountable, he can only punish me."

"Cai Shenzheng and others have been working hard on state affairs every day, and now they are physically and mentally exhausted. Only then did they forget that my elder brother has been given the power to supervise the country. Therefore, I made a mistake. Please forgive me."

Cai Jin and others were immediately grateful to Xiao Ce. The second prince was unparalleled in benevolence, sage, and virtuous, and their support was not in vain.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but glance at Xiao Ce, the second child was not useless, he was an incompetent puppet in Li Linfu's hands.

After what he said, Xiao Yi couldn't continue to hold on to him. Even if he continued to use the ancestral system to question him, I'm afraid it would only be counterproductive.

Xiao Yi walked into the political hall with his hands behind his back. As he walked, he asked, "Why don't you see Mr. Li?"

Cai Jin quickly said: "Mr. Li was infected with wind and cold last night and has already reported illness."

"You haven't seen Mrs. Zhang either?"

Someone quickly replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, Taifu Zhang is comforting the refugees outside the capital."

Xiao Yi nodded, sat directly on the main seat where Xiao Ce was originally sitting, picked up the memorial on the table and read it.

'King Xiao Zheng of Yan reported that the eldest princess of Yan led a delegation to the pass and wanted to come to the capital to discuss the Baoding pass, and she intended to negotiate peace with Daqian... '

Okay.

Last night, all he had to deal with were trivial matters, but in the political hall, there were major matters related to national affairs.

Are you trying to fool a three-year-old?

Do you still think of yourself as the good-for-nothing prince from before?

"The envoy from the State of Yan came to discuss peace, which is related to the reputation of Daqian. The reception ceremony must comply with the etiquette."

"Where is Young Master Honglu?"

Xiao Yi occupied the political hall very directly and domineeringly.

He was so decisive that even the officials could not react. They just watched Xiao Yi sitting there, picking up the memorial, and then discussing state affairs.

Honglu Shaoqing Geng Nanqiu stood up and said, "Your Highness, what are your orders?"

Xiao Yidao: "You are fully responsible for receiving the delegation from Yan State. If necessary, just make it clear to Gu Gu."

"Remember, you don't have to be too respectful, but you don't lose etiquette either."

"Also, we need to find out the other party's intentions."

"Princess Yan personally led a delegation to the capital. It seems that she wants to discuss the matter of peace. I'm afraid... it won't be that simple."

Geng Nanqiu bowed again and said, "Here."

Xiao Ce was a little puzzled. This appointment seemed ordinary.

Because receiving the mission was the responsibility of Honglu Temple, it was natural for Xiao Yi to let Geng Nanqiu take full responsibility.

He originally thought that Xiao Yi would directly lift the table and directly question the person who captured Mr. Li.

However, Xiao Yi sat there directly and began to deal with state affairs.

Naturally, it is impossible for Xiao Yi to raise the table with Li Linfu now, because he knows that he is not a clumsy person, he does not have much power in his hands, and he does not have a team of his own and has many supporters. If he really wants to raise the table with Li Linfu, it will probably just be a fight. Both sides suffer.

He is the prince who supervises the country, so he should take state affairs as his top priority.

Let the ministers do their work first.

Let them reveal themselves and have a handle, so that there will be reasons to accuse them and deal with them.

Kill or scrape, just in a thought.

Even if Li Linfu wanted to protect him, it might not be that easy.

"Bring me the memorial about the drought on Shaanxi Road, I want to take a look." Xiao Yi continued after dealing with the Yan State delegation.

Someone looked at Cai Jin. Li Gongxiang was not here, so he, the Councilor for Political Affairs, could be regarded as the chief minister in the political affairs hall.

This person was also highly regarded by Li Linfu. At the age of thirty-six, he was already a bachelor of Tianzhang Pavilion, a minister of the Ministry of War, and a counselor in political affairs, which was equivalent to the level of deputy prime minister.

The prince now wants a memorial about the drought on Shaanxi Road, and the memorial is now on Cai Jin's desk.

Yes take.

Or not?

Taking it means bowing to the prince.

If you don't take it, I'm afraid I will have to confront the prince in this political hall.

Cai Jin was hesitant for a moment.

Xiao Yi's expression turned cold and he asked slowly: "Why, you didn't hear what Gu said clearly, or are you saying that you don't want to hear it?"
