In the council hall, the four old ministers looked at the door restlessly, with a look of panic and uneasiness.

I straightened the bright yellow palace dress on my body, a light smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, and I gracefully raised my feet and stepped into the council hall, Bodhisattva followed closely behind me, with a serious face.

"Weichen see Her Royal Highness the Princess, Princess Chitose Chitose Chitose."

"Ladies and gentlemen, please be even."

I stepped forward and gave a false help to the four of them, and several of them stood up tremblingly.

The Bodhisattva behind me stepped forward and introduced the four ministers in front of me in turn, and I smiled and greeted them one by one, and then calmly walked to the main seat in the middle of the chamber and sat down.

"A few adults, please take a seat, you are all the elders of Ling Shang, and you are also the loyal ministers of the imperial brother, and you can be said to be the elders of the two dynasties. This time, Ling Shang should have come to visit your mansion in person when she came back from Nanchen Kingdom, but a woman in this palace is really not suitable to show her face, so I will invite you to the conference hall today to drink tea and chat, and I hope that you adults will not be restrained and just speak freely. ”

The four old ministers under the seat looked at each other restlessly, with a look of embarrassment, but they were all silent.

I sat firmly on the throne, and without urging them, I picked up a cup of new tea that the eunuch had just brought me, and took a sip gently.

The dragon well in front of the Ming Dynasty, the entrance is soft and elegant, so I squinted comfortably, and then looked at the four adults under the seat, they exchanged eyes for a long time, and finally unanimously fell on the old minister with almost white hair and beard who was sitting under my right hand, and motioned for him to speak.

I recognized the Taifu Li, who had reigned since the Tianming Emperor, a veritable veteran of the two dynasties, well-known in the capital, and known for his erudition and integrity.

It's just that I didn't expect that under the obscenity of the night snow, this upright old minister didn't dare to say a word when he went to court today.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, since you let the ministers speak freely, then the old ministers will no longer beat around the bush and have something to say."

Mrs. Li was solemn and upright, and his tone was sonorous and powerful, and he no longer saw the cowering when he was in the court, but his eyes kept glancing at the Bodhisattva standing behind me.

I know that Bodhisattva Ming is a person from Yexue, if he is here today, these old ministers will categorically refuse to tell me some truthful words, so they simply turned their heads and glanced at the expressionless Bodhisattva who was standing behind me lightly, "Lord Bodhisattva, the emperor will review and read the folds in the imperial study, you go to the imperial study to accompany you!" ”

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, the emperor ordered Weichen to protect Her Royal Highness the princess well, and he can't leave a single step."

"Even so, then please wait outside the door."

"Your Royal Highness Princess......" Bodhisattva's face changed and he looked at me with some concern.

"What, do you have to disobey the orders of this palace?"

My eyes were sharp, and the royal nobility that had been immersed in the palace since I was a child suddenly appeared, and Bodhisattva looked at me like this, and was involuntarily stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward and knelt on one knee: "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates will wait outside the door." ”

After saying that, he got up and strode out of the council hall, and then two little eunuchs stepped forward and closed the heavy door.

"Mrs. Li, please speak up, Ling Sheng guarantees that what everyone said in the council hall today will never be known to anyone else.

When the door was closed, I looked at Mrs. Li with a pleasant face and made a guarantee.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess, the ministers are guilty, and I hope Her Royal Highness the Princess will atone for her sins!"

Unexpectedly, seeing that there was no one else in the hall, those old ministers actually got up from their seats in unison, walked to the main seat, and knelt down in front of me with a plop of their clothes.

I was startled, hurriedly got up, took a few steps down from the main seat, and used my hands to support the old ministers whose beards were almost white: "What are you doing, get up quickly, if you have anything to say, let's just sit and talk about it." ”

"Her Royal Highness the princess and the ministers are ignorant, and they don't know that the princess's true body is Guanyin Bodhisattva who came to Beiyang to save the suffering, and at the beginning she actually wanted to send the princess back to Nanchen Kingdom, and asked Her Royal Highness the princess to have a lot, don't be with us and other general knowledge, and forgive the sins of the ministers."

As Mrs. Li spoke, he and the other three old ministers slammed their heads on the ground, and after a while, there were some bruises on their foreheads.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you don't want this palace to blame, please get up and talk about it, otherwise this palace will be angry!"

I deliberately kept a straight face and pretended to be angry.

When the four old ministers heard my angry voice, they hurriedly got up from the ground, and their old bodies trembled, as if they would collapse to the ground in the next moment.

"My lords, please sit down and speak." I raised my hand and motioned for a few people to sit down, "You have signed a joint letter hoping to send me back to Nanchen, and this palace will not only not feel that you are guilty, but will feel that you are meritorious." If it weren't for the emperor's thoughts, I was afraid that the emperor would break the etiquette and law passed down by the ancestors, how could you risk death to write to advise the emperor? So here, Ling Sheng would like to thank all of you here, as well as those virtuous ministers who dare to speak out. ”

After speaking, I folded my hands at my waist and respectfully saluted the few old ministers who had already sat down.

The old ministers stood up in a panic and stood aside with a sneering face, their old faces flushed, probably remembering their inaction in the court.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, you are tormenting your ministers!"

It was still Mrs. Li who reacted quickly, he looked at me with a look of shame, his eyes were faintly red, and his voice was choked: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you say this to make the ministers ashamed." The first emperor treated me well, but when we saw the emperor killing my father, we didn't dare to stop it, let alone follow the first emperor, which was an unfaithful and unrighteous act. Now that the emperor is in power, he will move troops at every turn, and we dare not stop him, let the emperor act recklessly, and he has not fulfilled the duty of a courtier, and he is really shameless to face the princess and the emperor! ”

Mrs. Li said with deep meaning, and when she said that there were old tears in the back.

I echoed with a sad face, but in my heart I scolded Emperor Tianming with a bloody spit, he died well, died well, died a croaking, if it wasn't for Yexue killing him, I would have killed him with my own hands.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, I waited until I knew that the emperor grew up in the Green Clothes Palace after losing his mother, and I have a deep relationship with the princess. The emperor has always been obedient to Her Royal Highness the princess, so the ministers begged the princess again to stay in the Beiyang country for the sake of the rivers and mountains of the Beiyang Kingdom and the people of Limin, stay with the emperor, and carefully teach the emperor, so that the emperor can become a generation of Ming monarchs as soon as possible, and the ministers should go underground to ask the emperor for their guilt as soon as possible. ”

Mrs. Li said bitterly, trembling and kneeling down again, and the other three ministers were infected with Mrs. Li's emotions, and they also knelt down behind Mrs. Li with tears in their eyes, and suddenly knelt down in front of me.
