The morning court in the palace was very lively today.
According to the old rules, after the eunuch started the morning ceremony, all the officials inside and outside the hall would kneel down and kowtow to the emperor, but this time the court meeting was very different from the past.
First, there was an unprecedented seven no-kneeling events. Zhang Julu, the minister, did not have to kneel. General Gu Jiantang did not kneel. Chen Zhibao, the military sage, not only did not kneel, but also wore a sword in the hall. Zhao Bing, the king of Yanchi, did not kneel. Zuo of the Imperial Academy did not kneel when offering wine. Xiong If Yao Baifeng of Zhou Dynasty does not kneel, and Xu Weixiong, the princess of the Second Princess of Beiliang does not kneel, they can also enter the palace with a sword...
If these seven people did not have great contributions to the Liyang Dynasty, they were the benefactors of their ancestors.
There is obviously a difference between the seven not kneeling and the severity. Zhang Julu, Gu Jiantang and the other five people did not kneel down, only during today's court meeting. I am afraid that the Hou Sage will not be treated like this in the future. Chen Zhibao and Xu Weixiong, who were also from Beiliang, did not say whether they would kneel or not in the future, but the privilege of entering the palace with swords was the highest level of glory.
After he refused to kneel, another imperial edict was issued.
"Promoted to Jin Lanting to serve as the Imperial Academy's right offering wine."
"Gu Jiantang resigned from the post of Minister of War, was granted the title of Dazhu Kingdom, and took charge of the military and political affairs of the North."
"Feng Yan Jie Xi Dongyuan Pavilion Grand Bachelor,"
"Chen Zhibao is in charge of the Ministry of War. If he is appointed overseas in the future, he can also lead the Ministry of War from a distance."
The eyes of many officials who were dissatisfied with Xu Weixiong and were ready to submit letters suddenly turned playful.
Jin Lanting was originally just a small county magistrate in Beiliang, and was later recommended as Huangmenlang by the Dazhu Kingdom. However, because he came from Beiliang, he was very marginalized in the capital and was in a very poor condition.
But this man soon became very proud. His promotion rate was almost as fast as that of Prime Minister Zhang Julu, and now he even sat in the position of right-hand minister.
The real reason for his rise was not how talented or noble this person was. There was only one very simple reason, and that was - scolding Xu Xiao.
Huang Menlang, who was personally recommended by Xu Xiao of the Dazhu Kingdom, scolded Xu Xiao and Beiliang at the last moment. He scolded him so much that naturally many officials in the capital secretly applauded him, including the one sitting on the dragon throne. So the more fierce the scolding, the faster the promotion and the higher the official position.
He was promoted to You Jijiu earlier, and later he was promoted to Right Jijiu. It happened to be the first time for the two princesses of Beiliang to go to court for promotion. I have to say that this emperor is also a disgusting person.
In addition to Jin Lanting, Yan Jiexi, who became a relative of the emperor after betraying Northern Liang, had the same reason. After marrying a daughter, he gained the status of a relative and a real status in the palace.
I'm afraid there are only a lot of Beiliang civil servants who are ready to make a move.
As for Gu Jiantang's Dazhu Kingdom, Chen Zhibao became Minister of War and also targeted Beiliang.
After quietly leaving the court without incident, the officials rushed out of the palace like a tide, and many people gathered around Jinlan Pavilion to offer wine to the newly promoted ministers.
As for Xu Weixiong, he was alone.
This talented woman who is famous all over the world has a calm expression and still maintains her own style and demeanor. She does not look away and is completely unaffected.
Chen Zhibao glanced at Xu Weixiong. It was rumored that the soldier saint in white had always admired the second princess, but for some unknown reason at this time, he did not come forward. He just formed an inner circle with Zhang Julu and Gu Jiantang, talking, laughing, and walking slowly.
There are two memorial archways for the Zhao family urn outside the imperial city gate. After the emperor retreated, the military officials came to Zhenwu, and the civil servants came to submit documents in an orderly manner. Then they went to the Yamen to handle the government affairs, but they soon left and returned, and even a large number of Enyin's disciples came back. He turned his horse's head and rushed towards the royal road.
Because there is something fun to watch today.
I saw a group of prime minister and eunuch students blocking the path of the second princess of Beiliang.
First there were dozens of people, then hundreds, then thousands.
It is mighty and mighty, like a crucian carp crossing a river.
In a short time, thousands of imperial students gathered on the royal road, all of whom would be the pillars of the future country. Unsurprisingly, the best among them would become the mainstay of Liyang.
However, the Tiance sacrificial wine in the Imperial College could not persuade the surging crowd at all, not to mention that most of them were happy to see the result, but they were too lazy to mention it.
While this side is powerful, it becomes increasingly clear that the other side is weak and weak.
It was just a lonely woman.
When less than half of the Imperial Academy poured into the Royal Road, they were really crowded.
Although this woman is somewhat famous, she is still just a woman in the final analysis. She thought that when she saw her magnificent momentum, she would not be so scared that she would pee, but her face would turn pale and she would run away with her head in her arms. But what he didn't expect was that the two princesses were standing with swords in hand, their cold faces unmoved.
That's fine, otherwise they, the imperial students, would have no room to perform. I heard that the Imperial Academy who had returned from the imperial court said that this woman actually entered the palace with a sword, which was simply ridiculous.
His Majesty was extremely gracious to a mere Northern Liang woman by allowing her to enter the palace, and he even carried a sword into the palace. There was also the matter of Qi Bu kneeling, which made this group of imperial students even more angry.
A Confucian scholar took a step forward and scolded with an angry look: "Xu Weixiong, what is your intention in Beiliang to send a mere woman to the palace for pilgrimage? It is extremely daring and arrogant. It is disrespectful to His Majesty and disrespectful to the imperial court."
Xu Weixiong remained silent.
The Confucian scholar was in full view of everyone, and he felt his heart filled with awe-inspiring righteousness: "Everyone in the imperial court respects you, Beiliang. How has Beiliang ever respected the imperial court? It's a disaster for a villain to succeed in his ambition."
The newly appointed right minister held up the car curtain and sneered at the corner of his mouth, "Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, your Xu family has today."
In Beiliang, I was humiliated like that by the dandy named Xu. I deserve to be spurned and looked down upon by the Xu family today. After I enter the Imperial College, I will make your Xu family infamous in the history books for thousands of years. In the future, I, Jin Sanlang, will have disciples all over the country like Zhang Shoufu. If I compile history books, the Xu family will be reduced to a kingless and fatherless family. The rebellious ministers and traitors.
The other officials also looked at the scene in front of them with whiskers and smiles.
Chen Zhibao frowned slightly. The second princess in his impression was never a good-tempered person.
In the entire Northern Liang Palace, Xu Xiao and the Crown Prince Xu Fengnian of Dazhu Kingdom were all chased around with feather dusters by him.
"Mean."
The burly man appeared at some point, stood tall with his hands behind his back, and shook his head.
His words were harsh, not only referring to the Imperial College, but also the current emperor and the entire Liyang Dynasty.
What is good at the top will be bad at the bottom.
Seeing the majestic scene in front of them, no one in the civil and military forces of the dynasty could stop it.
This is naturally related to the person in the palace. If it weren't for that person's permission, how could thousands of people come together.
The Xu family has conquered most of Liyang's territory, and now they are guarding the northwest. One day in Beiliang, outside the three states of Beiliang, there will be no harm from Beimang's millions of cavalry.
But the two generations of emperors of the Zhao family were suspected of being ungrateful, and the white-clothed case alone was extremely unreasonable. If you call him, he will definitely fight back single-handedly, turning the Zhao family upside down and causing the world to bleed like a river.
Over the years, the imperial court was afraid that Beiliang would become bigger and had been deliberately targeting Beiliang. It became almost everyone's knowledge.
But precisely because of this, the rift between Beiliang and the imperial court is getting bigger and bigger. I am afraid that one day, Beiliang and the Zhao family will completely break up.
Of course, this has nothing to do with him being a common man.
He originally wanted to see if Emperor Murong Tong was here, but now he became somewhat interested and wanted to see how the Second Princess of Beiliang could resolve the crisis at hand.
On the imperial road, Xu Weixiong was silent. The Confucian scholar felt as if he had been helped by heaven. He was so powerful that he angrily said: "Beiliang claims to have three hundred thousand cavalry. Isn't there a man? You actually let a woman like you come to Tai'an City. Haha, Or are you saying that even the men of the Xu family are incapable of taking action? The eldest son, Xu Fengnian, is full of ridiculous behavior and can be called the number one playboy in Liyang..."
"Shut up!"
Xu Weixiong suddenly raised his head, and his whole person suddenly exuded an alluring aura, his eyes piercing the knife.
The Confucian scholar couldn't help but take two steps back, and immediately felt angry again. He was actually forced back by a woman in front of everyone, and his words became increasingly difficult to hear.
"Isn't Xu Fengnian a straw bag? Not only is Xu Fengnian a straw bag, but who of the children of the Xu family can do anything about it? Xu Zhihu has a promiscuous style, Xu Longxiang is foolish and stupid, and you, Xu Wei, are known as unparalleled talkers and elegant writers, but who knows? It’s not a lie, it’s a false reputation…”
There was an uproar everywhere.
Some people frowned.
These words were too harsh and harsh, and they lost the inherent fairness and peace of Confucianism.
Not to mention the other three members of the Xu family, Xu Weixiong is indeed a man of real talent and learning, otherwise he would not have dominated the Jixia Academy and become the most watched figure.
Of course, there are also people like Jin Lanting who are secretly applauding.
Xu Weixiong was not as angry as he imagined, but just looked at the Confucian scholar quietly.
The Confucian scholar was frightened by the sight, but he refused to retreat this time. He kept calm and sneered, "How do you want to treat me?"
"Mr. Murong, this person has insulted me, the Xu family, and Beiliang like this. What should Weixiong do?" Xu Weixiong suddenly spoke, but he was not talking to the Confucian scholar.
Mr. Murong?
The Confucian scholar frowned.
"Oh, you can do whatever you want? Why ask me? I don't believe that you, Xu Weixiong, will swallow your anger."
A misty voice sounded.
Everyone's eyes dimmed. There was an extra person beside Xu Weixiong. He stood tall with his hands behind his back and smiled. His whole body exuded an otherworldly aura, as if it were scary in the sky.
"Emperor Murong Tong!?"
Everyone was in an uproar.
Besides Murong Tonghuang, who else could be called Mr. Murong by Xu Weixiong.
Apart from Emperor Murong Tong, who else could have such grace and grace, and an appearance that would overwhelm the country.
Sure enough, this person arrived in Tai'an City.
Xu Weixiong said: "Although Weixiong doesn't want to swallow his anger, if the matter gets too big, I'm afraid there's nothing we can do about it. And I'm just a little girl. Once I upset the court, there will be no place in Tai'an City."
"You just want me to support you, right?"
Yu Liancheng smiled, his eyes moved, and he inadvertently looked in the direction of the burly man, nodded and smiled.
The burly man also nodded.
In this way, the best in the world and the second in the world greeted each other like this.
"Mr. Mingjian." Xu Weixiong hugged his fists.
"It's okay to cover you, but what's the benefit to me?" Yu Liancheng touched it and said with a smile.
Xu Weixiong smiled and said: "Weixiong invites you to eat mutton and drink green ant wine."
"I don't like eating mutton, the smell is too strong." Yu Liancheng shook his head.
Xu Weixiong smiled and said: "I know a mutton restaurant. The mutton is black-headed white sheep from outside the mountains. The meat from the back of the mutton's neck is also used. One sheep can only produce a few taels of meat. It tastes neither fishy nor tangy nor greasy. Put it in Outside of Tai'an City, even if you have money, you can't buy it. By the way, it is said that the chef there can cut ninety-nine and eighty-one pieces out of a pound of meat, so the restaurant is called Jiujiu Hall."
"Sure, but Wu Zhu will definitely go. Maybe there will be other friends there." Yu Liancheng thought.
"This is natural. Sister Wuzhu cannot be left behind. Sir, you are also welcome as a friend."
"Okay, then I will protect you in Tai'an City." Yu Liancheng waved his sleeves: "As long as you stay in Tai'an City for one day, no one will hurt you."
"Thank you sir." Xu Weixiong bowed to Emperor Murong Tong again.
So for a meal of mutton and a pot of green ant wine, I asked the best man in the world to escort him.
Xu Weixiong looked at the scholar again, and his voice became cold again: "Actually, I can reason with you, and I can also talk to you about poetry. Not to mention you, even your entire Imperial College, including those so-called sacrificial wine , in my opinion, it’s just a false name.”
"What did you say?!" The Confucian scholar immediately changed his color.
The group of imperial students behind him were even more excited, and they all frowned at the Imperial Academy's wine ceremony.
"But I, Beiliang, don't like to reason, and I, Xu Weixiong, don't like to reason either. I don't care if you say bad things about the Xu family in private, but you can't say it in front of me." Xu Weixiong's tone became colder.
"There are admonishers in the imperial court. Are you from Beiliang more sage than His Majesty? Just one word of criticism..." The Confucian scholar was crazy. Before he finished speaking, the light suddenly flashed and his chest hurt.
He looked down with difficulty and saw a sword inserted into his chest.
A very fast sword.
No blood flowed.
Because the blood hasn't had time to flow out yet.
This Princess of the Second Princess of Beiliang is not a weak woman without the strength to bind a chicken, but a true Zhixuan master with first-class swordsmanship.
The Confucian scholar's teeth were chattering, and every muscle on his face was trembling. He looked at Xu Weixiong with fear and consternation in his eyes.
What he feared was the passage of life, but what shocked him was whether this woman was crazy? In front of so many people, kill a great student with a promising future.
"I especially don't like to reason with dead people."
Xu Weixiong suddenly pulled out his sword, and blood covered his entire chest.
"you……"
The Confucian scholar pointed at Xu Weixiong with a trembling finger. Before he could finish his words, he fell on his face.
The many imperial students beside the Confucian scholar were also chilled by the sword. At this time, Xu Weixiong's cold eyes swept away, and their faces turned pale, and they all stepped back.
"A bunch of rats."
Xu Weixiong returned the sword to its sheath, with a grace and bearing that was truly unmatched by any man in the world.
Suddenly, the second princess turned around and walked towards a carriage on the imperial road under the surprised gazes of everyone. In that carriage was the newly appointed right-hand wine minister, Shinzaburo.
Master Youjiujiu looked pale and said in a stern voice, "Xu Weixiong, you ruthless man from Beiliang, I am the new Youjiujiu, how do you treat me!?"
Xu Weixiong was only four or five steps away from the carriage, and he coldly uttered two words: "Hit the dog!"
