Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Ministers Admonish

Jiang Shilian repeatedly proposed to the emperor to remove Qiu Luoxue from his official position, but he did not reject it every time, but he never gave up, but became more and more courageous. This time, he took advantage of the day of rest to gather ministers and discuss how to remove Qiu Luoxue from his official position.

"Tomorrow's things will depend on you a lot, this glass of wine, to all colleagues, may tomorrow's things go well, and you and I will soon be successful." Jiang Shilian held the wine glass and said, although it is not a rhetoric, but in fact, there are still some words.

"Lord Jiang is polite, tomorrow everyone is a mutual honor guard, as long as Your Majesty does not remove the phase of Qiu Luoxue for a day, you and I will not be able to afford it in front of the palace gate for a day." One of the ministers was the first to stand up and declare his determination, and when he had finished speaking, he drank all the contents of the cup.

Seeing this, the ministers who were discussing in the Jiang Mansion also got up one after another and drank all the wine in the cup, and Jiang Shilian was the last to drink the wine in the cup.

Early the next morning, it was supposed to be the day of the last dynasty, but Jiang Shilian gathered a group of ministers to kneel in front of the palace gate and asked Xia Zimo to remove Qiu Luoxue from his official position. Most of the people kneeling here are people from King Chen's camp, and some are pedantic literati who can't stand women's participation in politics. Such a group of people knelt in front of the palace gate, completely to put pressure on Xia Zimo.

Above the court, the emperor and the ministers support each other and contain each other, and the power of either side is too strong is not conducive to the stability of the court. Since it is a relationship of mutual containment, confrontation is inevitable. Now Xia Zimo and the ministers are facing such a situation, this situation will naturally not last forever, and one side needs to back down. As for who will back down, it depends on who can hold on for a long time.

"Your Majesty......"

"Mother's ......"

"Childe ......"

In the Qilong Palace, Renfeng Palace, and Xiangfu, someone reported this incident at the same time, Xia Zimo, Jiang Guifei and Qiu Luoxue received the news at about the same time, but their performances were different.

"Childe, it's not good, Lord Jiang and his ministers are kneeling in front of the palace gate, and I want to ask Your Majesty to remove you from your official position." Biyu ran to Qiu Luoxue's room and reported anxiously.

"When?" Qiu Luoxue was still getting dressed slowly, but when she heard this, her movements immediately became faster, with a worried look on her face, and she walked outside while asking.

"Just half an hour ago, Lord Jiang led his ministers to kneel down in front of the palace gate, and threatened not to remove the prince from his official position, and they would not go to court." Jasper replied that she was speaking twice as fast as usual because of the urgency of the situation.

"They're going to quit!"

Qiu Luoxue knew the seriousness of this matter, the king and the ministers in the court were in a state of balance, and only in the face of extremely mediocre kings in history would the ministers break this balance and use the way of boycotting the dynasty to advise the emperor. Jiang Shilian's move was really ruthless, and as soon as he made a move, he pushed Xia Zimo to the cusp of the mediocre emperor.

Xia Zimo works so weekdays, and he does his best for the sake of national politics, but he has to write this pen in the history books. Qiu Luoxue didn't want him to be like that. But now, if you want to solve this problem, I am afraid that there is no other way than to remove her official position, but without the blessing of this official position, Qiu Luoxue is a dead end.

"That's better than two people dying together." Qiu Luoxue thought.

"Father, he actually ......" Jiang Guifei was very atmospheric when she heard this, and clenched her fists tightly.

"Mother, what can I do? If His Majesty really can't resist the threat of the ministers and dismisses Prime Minister Qiu from his official position, he will definitely admit her to the palace in order to save Prime Minister Qiu's life. In this way, Niangniang's status in the palace is ...... "The palace maid knows Concubine Jiang's concerns and knows the only way to solve the problem, so she is very worried."

Before the palace maid could speak, Concubine Jiang angrily threw down the things on the dresser, and she said with a cold face: "Impossible." When pigs fly. Go with the main palace to the dragon hall. As she spoke, she stood up and wanted to leave.

"Niangniang, you haven't finished dressing up yet, wait for the maid to finish dressing up for you before you go, it's not at this time." The palace maid persuaded.

Jiang Guifei realized that she couldn't go to see Xia Zimo like this, so she went back to the dressing room and sat down, but in fact, she was already very anxious in her heart now. You have to hurry up and think of a way, you can't let Xia Zimo compromise.

Xia Zimo heard the threatening words of the ministers, sneered twice, and said: "This Jiang Shilian is really full of tricks, let them continue to kneel, and they will naturally go back when they are tired." ”

"But in this way, the people will definitely point the finger at Your Majesty, and it will not be good to lose the hearts of the people." Jin Fu said.

"I came to ask you, have all the ministers quit the court?" Xia Zimo looked at Jin Fu and asked.

"Naturally not, only the adults who stand in King Chen's camp have quit." Kim Bok replied.

"Isn't that enough, they can go to the court, and I can handle state affairs like the rest of the ministers. When the time comes, the people will be able to see the high and low, and they will know whose camp they should stand on. They are the ones who make trouble unreasonably and obstruct the government. Xia Zimo said with great foresight, plus during the princely period, he has been dealing with the government for more than ten years, so he will not be scared when he encounters these things. Want to threaten him? Hmph, don't look at yourself first.

After Xia Zimo said this, Jin Fu understood and said, "Your Majesty is wise. ”

"Let's go, go to the court." Xia Zimo said confidently.

"Get ......," Jin Fu shouted in his Yali mourning.

As soon as he got out of the palace gate, Xia Zimo saw the ministers kneeling outside, headed by Jiang Shilian, a total of twelve. At this time, the sky was not completely bright, it was a little dark, and the ministers were kneeling in court clothes, and there was also an oppressive momentum.

"Your Majesty, please take the official position of Prime Minister Ba Chuqiu. Women participating in politics have never been seen in ancient times, for the sake of the country of Daqin, please make a decision as soon as possible. Jiang Shilian immediately expressed his appeal when he saw Xia Zimo come out.

"Although women have never participated in politics, they are not explicitly prohibited. Moreover, when Prime Minister Qiu was in the court, he did a lot for the court, and he handled government affairs no less than a man, so why couldn't he be the prime minister of Daqin? Xia Zimo asked rhetorically.

"Your Majesty protects Prime Minister Qiu, and naturally speaks for her everywhere." Jiang Shilian retorted.

"Yes, Your Majesty is too protective of Prime Minister Qiu, and this is definitely not a policy that is conducive to national politics. Please also ask Your Majesty to depose Qiu Luoxue's phase, otherwise, the ministers will not be able to kneel here. Another minister helped.

But this kind of threatening words didn't have any effect on Xia Zimo, and he said coldly: "Then you guys kneel here." After saying this, Xia Zimo left. Leaving behind a group of dumbfounded ministers.

"This, this is also ......" a minister said speechlessly, he didn't expect Xia Zimo to ignore them like this.

"Master Jiang, how is this good?" Someone asked Jiang Shilian.

Jiang Shilian didn't expect this, this situation made him very faceless, he said with a dark face: "Of course I will continue to kneel here, if I leave now, wouldn't it be even more fulfilling the emperor's wish." ”

Xia Zimo walked out of the palace gate, met Jiang Guifei head-on, and asked, "What?" You're here to force me, too. ”

"The concubine is helping Your Majesty." Jiang Guifei said.

"No need." Xia Zimo refused her help.

Concubine Jiang Guifei knelt in front of Xia Zimo and said, "Please Your Majesty believe in the concubine, the concubine is willing to persuade her father." ”

Xia Zimo sneered twice and said, "If he cared about you, he wouldn't stand in King Chen's camp and oppose me." ”

Xia Zimo's words told the truth, and also said Jiang Guifei's embarrassing situation and desolate heart. Yes, how could Jiang Shilian care about her? All he cares about is the Jiang family's son and his official position, and the Jiang family's daughter is only used for political marriage.

Then, Xia Zimo no longer paid attention to Concubine Jiang and spared her, leaving Concubine Jiang alone kneeling on the corridor outside the red palace wall, showing sadness.

Xia Zimo's words reminded Jiang Guifei and prompted her to make a decision with Jiang Shilian. Anyway, Jiang Shilian never cared about her feelings, she might as well put the treasure on Xia Zimo, she imagined that Xia Zimo might give her some love in the future.

After making such a decision, Concubine Jiang got up from the ground and went to find Jiang Shilian. She finally wanted to talk to Jiang Shilian once, if he could give up this plan because he cared about her status in the palace and in Xia Zimo's heart. Then they may still be able to maintain the relationship between father and daughter, if not......

Qiu Luoxue entered the palace in an anxious and worried mood, thinking that Xia Zimo would be distressed because of these things, but he didn't expect him to go to court on time. Seeing Xia Zimo coming, in addition to Qiu Luoxue's surprise, the rest of the ministers were also surprised. Now there are only half of the people left in the court.

"I'm very relieved that half of the people can come to the court." Xia Zimo said with a smile, he can still laugh at this time, and it can be said that his psychological quality is very strong.

"Your Majesty, this matter is caused by the minister, please ask the emperor to depose the position of prime minister of Weichen." Qiu Luoxue knelt down and said, she didn't want to look at Xia Zimo anymore because she was in such an embarrassing situation.

"The Prime Minister can't help it. The reason why Jiang Shilian encircled the ministers and demanded the removal of your prime minister position was not for the sake of the country at all, but just greedy for the prime minister's position. If His Majesty compromises now, there will be constraints in the court in the future. Master Li said that he was a person that Xia Zimo trusted more, and his words were also very reasonable.

What Li Qing said was very true. The Prime Minister only needs to sit firmly in your position and wake up, and don't worry about my situation. Xia Zimo said appreciatively.

He said it briskly, how could Qiu Luoxue not worry about his situation? After all, the incident started because of her.

Jiang Guifei walked in front of Jiang Shilian, and she saw that his temples were gray and looked very haggard. As a child, it is inevitable to feel distressed.

"Is Father really going against His Majesty?" Jiang Guifei asked.

"Niangniang, the minister is not against His Majesty. As a courtier, it is naturally the responsibility of the courtier to correct the king's mistakes in time. Jiang Shilian said in a high-sounding manner.
