Chapter 273 I am not a mediocre person
Zhongcui Palace.
Chen Hong waited until dark, but Emperor Jiajing did not come to favor Xue Susu.
After he inquired about it, he learned that His Majesty was discussing state affairs with the First and Second Assistants, and he was afraid that he would not come over tonight.
In Emperor Jiajing's mind, cultivating the mystic and becoming an immortal was the most important thing, followed by state affairs.
As for the love between men and women, he didn't attach much importance to it.
Chen Hong, who has been in the harem for a long time, naturally knows this.
He did not think that Xue Susu had fallen out of favor because of this. Instead, he took the initiative to console him and said, "I don't have to be sad, my concubine. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and occasionally breaks appointments. I don't mean to neglect your empress."
"Um."
Xue Susu responded and sat quietly, facing a table full of delicacies from the imperial kitchen, without moving a single chopstick.
It seems that she is still very disappointed?
Chen Hong thought in his heart that the women in the harem are all beautiful on the surface and only live to please a stinky man in this life. In fact, they are very pitiful.
Of course, Chen Hong, the eunuch, didn't have much sympathy.
He fawned over Xue Susu just to show his face in front of Emperor Jiajing.
Seeing that Emperor Jiajing would not come tonight, Chen Hong also said goodbye and left.
"Your Majesty, I still have some work to do with the Supervisor of Ceremonies. The Supervisor of Ceremonies is receiving the memorials from the civil and military officials. It is a national matter. I don't dare to delay, so I will leave now."
"good."
Xue Susu nodded, not wondering whether Chen Hong was neglecting her.
Seeing that she was so successful, Chen Hong was also very satisfied.
At least, this is not a arrogant mistress, which is good.

…………
Renshou Palace.
Yan Song and Xu Jie knelt at the foot of the imperial steps. They both looked old and decrepit, as if they would die in the next second.
But the two old faces showed a look of loyalty.
"Your Majesty, the origin of this concubine is unknown. There may be something wrong with hastily bringing her into the harem." Yan Song said.
"What the First Assistant said is absolutely true. Besides, Xue Susu was born in Huafang, and her status is not enough to bear the grace of Heaven. The Emperor is setting an example for all the people in the world. Please put the etiquette and regulations first, withdraw her title as a concubine, and send her out of the palace."
It's really rare.
During the Jiajing Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the first assistant and the second assistant, who had been fighting openly and secretly for many years, these two leaders of the turbulent and clear currents, also had a day when they had the same goals.
Buzz~~~~!
There was a sound of chime, and the gauze curtain opened.
Emperor Jiajing sat cross-legged and meditated, as if he were a god entering samadhi.
He closed his eyes tightly and said leisurely: "Are you done?"
Yan Song and Xu Jie immediately bowed to the ground!
"I am guilty."
Emperor Jiajing slowly opened his eyes, showing no anger, but a smile.
"A prostitute is the lowest woman in the world."
"My concubine is the most noble woman in the world."
"The distance between the two is as far as the distance between mortals and the fairy world."
"I let Xue Susu ascend to heaven in one step. Not only the officials will be shocked, but the whole world will be shocked as well."
The two veterans were kneeling, their heads pressed against the floor, and neither of them dared to raise their heads in a tacit understanding.
Emperor Jiajing continued.
"One of you is the first assistant, and the other is the second assistant. If you don't advise me at this time, you will be derelict in your duty."
"If this is the case, you are not worthy of commanding hundreds of officials, and hundreds of officials will not be convinced by you."
"Why don't I understand?"
"So, no matter how much you two remonstrate tonight, I will not punish you."
Only then did Yan Song and Xu Jie raise their heads.
There were different expressions on the faces of the two veterans.
Yan Song was moved and Xu Jie was bitter.
"well……"
Xu Jie sighed deeply in his heart.
Yan Song came to admonish him this time, but he didn't know the purpose.
But he, Xu Jie, sincerely advised His Majesty to take back his life.
"Hehehe."
Emperor Jiajing seemed to see through Xu Jie's thoughts.
"Is Xu Ge always worried about my reputation or my safety?"
"this……"
Xu Jie looked embarrassed.
This was too hard to say. How should he speak without offending the holy face?
After many years of ups and downs in the officialdom, it took great difficulty to reach a high position second only to Yan Song. If a momentary blunder caused the emperor's anger, and the loss of his official position was a minor matter, how many more years would Ming Dynasty be controlled by Zhuoliu?
"Your Majesty, I dare to speak."
"An assassination incident occurred at the Aimin Banquet. Although the assassin was injured by His Majesty, he has never been arrested so far."
"Although Concubine Rou is successful in rescuing the driver, she is a mortal, so there is something fishy about her..."
"Mr. Xu Ge."
Before Xu Jie could finish speaking, Yan Song spoke with sarcasm.
"Everything you can think of, His Majesty must have thought of it."
"Could it be that you think you are smarter and more far-sighted than His Majesty?"
Xu Jie was shocked when he heard this!
He subconsciously raised his head to look at Emperor Jiajing and found that although there was no anger on his face, his eyes were deep and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
"I am guilty!"
"How dare I compare myself with Your Majesty?"
"I serve Your Majesty with my mediocre talent, but I just want to fulfill my duty as a minister..."
"alright."
Emperor Jiajing waved his hand to stop Xu Jie from continuing to plead guilty.
"Huang Jin."
"My slave is here."
A eunuch appeared from the side, holding several scrolls.
The scrolls slowly unfolded, and each picture showed a woman. Most of them were beautiful and beautiful.
However, Yan Song and Xu Jie were able to recognize that these were all famous Holy Lords.
Among them, the one with a mediocre appearance but the most graceful and noble temperament is the Supreme Holy Lord Yaoguang, now the founding empress of the Daci Dynasty.
"There are still many people in this world who are looking forward to my death."
"But if you want to kill me, there are not many effective ways."
"Or, lure me away from the Ming Dynasty, and on the premise that I cannot use [Pangu Giant Body], gather enough Mahayana realm masters to surround and kill me."
"Alternatively, imitating the ancient assassins, such as Nie Zheng, Zhuan Zhu and others, may also be successful."
"Or, pray to heaven and curse me for failing to ascend...hehehe."
Yan Song and Xu Jie listened silently.
They both knew that the third possibility was just a joke of Emperor Jiajing.
In today's world, if even Emperor Jiajing failed to ascend, then I'm afraid no one is worthy of becoming an immortal.
"One day, I will lead a personal expedition and wipe out all the countries. The ascension of the whole country that I look forward to is the ascension of the whole world like the first emperor of Qin Dynasty, not the ascension of half of the country!"
"But the time has not yet come for the emperor to go on a personal expedition."
"Right now, I will not leave the capital, just like Yaoguang will not leave Chaoge."
Emperor Jiajing paused.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his deep eyes.
"Yao Guang wants me to die."
"very good."
"I have been planning so that no one in the world can be called lonely except me."
Xu Jie was frightened when he heard this!
He has always claimed to be Emperor Jiajing's right-hand man, besides Yan Song!
However, I didn’t understand His Majesty’s thoughts until today.
Your Majesty has been making plans for various countries?
"Mr. Xu Ge." Emperor Jiajing said leisurely.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is here!"
Looking at the frightened bachelor at the imperial court, Emperor Jiajing smiled.
"I am not a mediocre person."
"Keeping my concubine by my side will serve me well."
"Mr. Xu Ge, can you stop asking about this matter in the future?"
Emperor Jiajing shouted "Xu Ge Lao" one after another, and Xu Jie was already sweating profusely!
He knelt down and bowed again, saying in a trembling voice: "I... obey your order."
