Just as Ye Xiuluo said, when Li Xian arrived at the Jinluan Palace, Changsun Jian, Lin Zhenyue, Xue Pingxi, Zeng Rui and other big shots were already there.
The prime ministers and deputy prime ministers, ministers and ministers of various ministries, famous generals, and even relatives of the emperor... almost all the courtiers who could be ranked high appeared in the main hall.
In front of the main hall, Lord Xi, the commander of the Golden Armored Guards, was wearing armor with a solemn expression. When he saw Ye Shura behind Li Xian, a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes unconsciously.
The moment he stepped into the hall, several unfriendly eyes fell on Li Xian.
Obviously, at this special moment, the sudden summons of the young prince has made many people dissatisfied.
"Sorry, I am late."
Li Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly clasped his fists at Changsun Jian and others, "I've kept you all waiting for a long time."
"Your Highness King Lu, if you have something to discuss with your ministers, you should set the place at Prince Lu's Mansion."
The first person to launch an attack was Guan Tianming, the Minister of Rites, "Only Your Majesty can summon ministers to the Jinluan Hall. It is against the rules for you to do so!"
"This... what Mr. Guan, Mr. Guan said is absolutely true. It's due to my lack of careful consideration."
Li Xian's expression froze, his aura suddenly weakened a bit, and he hesitated, "Just, I just obey the authority when the matter is urgent..."
He is the youngest, and most of the people present are above him in seniority. When they meet him on weekdays, they would usually call him uncle, so he is naturally shorter.
In addition, the status of the Minister of Rites is revered, nominally higher than the other five, and he is also regarded as the "Qingshui Yamen" among the six. Guan Tianming already thinks highly of himself. Even when facing the emperor Li Yiru, he will contradict the emperor from time to time. How can he put it? This little brat takes it seriously.
As soon as they met, the aura between the two was immediately different, just like a lion to a little white rabbit, completely different from each other.
"Also, this person has a serious face, so he shouldn't be a senior official."
Seeing that he was showing weakness, Guan Tianming became even more aggressive. He pointed at Ye Shura and said, "Your Majesty, without your Majesty's approval, brought the miscellaneous people into the Golden Palace without permission. What is your intention?"
"He, he...I, I..."
Under his pressing step by step, Li Xian became more and more panicked, his words were incoherent, and he had no idea how to respond.
"What do you call this lord?"
At this time, Ye Shura behind him suddenly looked at Guan Tianming with a smile.
"In Xiaguan Tianming, I became the Minister of Rites."
Guan Tianming glanced at him contemptuously and said, "Who are you, Your Excellency?"
"Disrespect, disrespect!"
Ye Shura smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Ye Shura, the Lord of Caomin Wanren Yaya, has met Lord Guan and all of you."
"Wanrenya?" Guan Tianming's face suddenly showed confusion.
As the Minister of Rites, he is in charge of foreign affairs and assessment, but he does not pay much attention to the affairs of the cultivation world. Therefore, he knows nothing about Wanrenya, which has risen strongly in the past two years.
"Master Guan, this Wanrenya is a cultivating sect. I heard that it has several spiritual masters who are very powerful." Midnight General Zeng Rui explained from the side, "It seems that he also has a good relationship with Su Gongfeng."
"What! This is nonsense!"
When Guan Tianming heard this, he couldn't help but became furious, "Isn't this important place where you, a secular cultivator, can come whenever you want? Why don't you leave quickly!"
Seeing him getting angry, Li Xian shrank his neck nervously and remained silent, not even daring to take a breath.
At this time, he had already felt regretful in his intestines. He wished he could turn around and leave immediately, hiding in his palace and never leaving the house again.
The throne, revenge, and beauty were all forgotten by him.
The only thought in my mind is how good things should be here.
"Master Guan, what you said is wrong!"
Compared with the timid and shrinking young prince, Ye Shura looked calm and talked without any panic on his face, "Everyone has a responsibility when it comes to national calamity. Although Ye is just a rough man, he also knows how to share worries for the country." principle."
"Oh? That sounds nice!"
Guan Tianming sneered and mocked, "I would like to hear how you are going to relieve the country's worries?"
"Now that His Majesty is missing, the entire army is leaderless. If this continues, the country will not be a country, and there will be great chaos!" Ye Shura said seriously, "His Royal Highness King Lu and the common people are here precisely to solve this problem."
"Is it possible that Lord Yeya knows His Majesty's whereabouts?"
Prime Minister Sun Jian, who had always been watching with cold eyes, spoke out for the first time, "If this is the case, it is indeed a great achievement."
"The common people don't know."
Yesura shook his head decisively.
"What a cunning man. He doesn't know anything, yet he dares to talk so brazenly that he wants to share the country's worries!" Guan Tianming's voice suddenly rose a little higher, "Are you trying to make fun of us?"
"These villains were able to kidnap His Majesty under the protection of three masters. They have obviously planned for a long time and come prepared." Yesura replied unhurriedly, "How easy is it to recapture His Majesty in just three seconds?"
"Master Yeya, what exactly do you want to say?"
Lin Zhenyue, the Minister of Household Affairs, couldn't help but look angry, "Please don't make any more detours."
"I don't know when your Majesty will return. As the saying goes, a country cannot live without a king for a day." Old God Yesura replied on the ground, "His Highness summoned all of you to discuss the succession of the throne."
As soon as these words came out, the entire Jinluan Palace fell silent for an instant. Countless looks of astonishment fell on Li Xian, making his scalp numb and his heart palpitating. He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
"Your Majesty has no heirs, only brothers." Ye Xiuluo seemed to be completely unaware and continued to talk, "Among them, the eldest prince has been placed under house arrest in Piaohua Palace, Prince Yi died young, and Prince Wu devoted himself to cultivation. Regardless of the secular affairs, the common people think that His Highness King Lu should inherit the throne, what do you all think?"
"You, you, you..." Guan Tianming never expected to hear such shocking remarks from his mouth. He was so angry that he couldn't even speak clearly, "So, so brave!"
"Lord Yeya, do you know that it is a serious crime for ordinary people to discuss the government indiscriminately." Even Changsun Jian, who has always been very close to the city, couldn't help but look angry and said coldly, "Besides, His Majesty is still alive and dead, and Prince Lu has no intention of rescuing him. Instead, he has the idea of taking the throne, which is quite chilling!"
"What Lord Changsun said is absolutely true!"
"Your Majesty loves King Lu very much. If he knew about this, I don't know how sad he would be."
"Yes, His Majesty gave away money and people. Unexpectedly, he actually cultivated a white-eyed wolf!"
"Commander Xi, why don't we quickly capture this deceitful man and put him in prison as a warning to others!"
The entire hall was filled with people, discussions, and voices of criticism. Not many of the court officials from various factions supported Li Xian.
After all, Li Xian was just a pampered thirteen-year-old boy. He had never seen such a battle before. The scolding sounds in his ears were like someone constantly lashing his heart with a whip.
One whip, one whip, another whip...
Panic and fear were intertwined, causing his face to turn pale, his legs to tremble, and he almost fell to the ground.
"This gentleman is wrong!"
Yesura shook his head and said loudly, "The big officials are in charge of the big officials. The empire has taken such detours over the years, and it's time to correct the chaos and return to the right path."
"Why did Lord Yeya say this?"
Amidst the roars of abuse around him, Changsun Jian still maintained restraint, but his voice was as cold as ice, "When did I take a detour?"
"This world has been a man's world since ancient times." Yesura puffed out his chest and said plausibly, "There is no reason for a woman to be in power. Isn't this a detour?"
As soon as this statement came out, the voices of opposition and criticism around him actually became lighter.
The value of male superiority and female inferiority obviously reached into the hearts of many officials present.
"Since the founding of our country, we have never explicitly stipulated that women cannot be in power." Changsun Jian retorted firmly, "Besides, your Majesty has worked hard to govern since he succeeded to the throne and has made outstanding achievements. His superiors are worthy of the sky and his subordinates are worthy of the people. Your remarks , please forgive me for not agreeing."
"No matter what, a woman is still a woman after all." Yesura shook his head repeatedly and stubbornly refuted, "How can you climb on top of a man?"
"what are you?"
The old general Xue Dingxi sneered and said, "Who will be the emperor? It's your turn to make irresponsible remarks. Commander Xi, why don't you expel this fool quickly?"
"Who dares to break into the palace!"
While the two sides were arguing endlessly, Venerable Xi's stern voice suddenly came from the door of the hall.
"Long live His Royal Highness King Lu!"
"Support His Royal Highness King Lu in succeeding to the throne!"
"It is unlucky for a woman to be in charge of a country!"
"Stop the chaos and revive the great cause!"
"Swear loyalty to His Highness King Lu to the death!"
"The Holy Emperor ascends the throne today!"
What followed was a chaotic and noisy shouting, as if there were hundreds or thousands of people marching in the street.
"Commander Xi, what are you waiting for?"
Hearing these many comments in support of Li Xian, Guan Tianming became even more angry. As he walked quickly towards the door, he shouted loudly, "Hurry up and capture these rebellious people!"
However, before he could reach the door, more than twenty powerful and domineering auras suddenly surged outside the hall.
Feeling these auras, everyone in the hall couldn't help but change their expressions.
Spiritual Lord!
More than twenty spiritual masters!
