Chapter 2 The Female Emperor Sets Up a Banquet in the Jinluan Hall (2)

Zhao Xiangling seemed to be stunned by this scene and stood still without moving. The winner of the selection, who had just staggered by, grabbed her by the arm and told her to take two steps back to avoid the knife, and the assassin's head fell to the ground with a flash of white light.

"Pretty." Zhao Xiangling watched the blood beads fall to the ground, and smiled at Qingyun, who was already protecting her, without any fear.

"Failure to notice that this person is carrying weapons is a dereliction of duty on the part of the slave." Qingyun hugged his sword and bowed to the blood on the ground.

"It's a wonder that he hides his weapon in his flesh and blood, and you can find out." Zhao Xiang Ling said, waving her hand to stand down, "That...... Childe, you stay. ”

The boy who was called was dressed in a green bamboo-colored robe, turned around with an elegant posture, and stood in front of Zhao Xiangling with his head down, as elegant as cultivating bamboo.

"I see that you are beautiful and different from others, and you want to come to your family background...... Do you know how to play the flute? Zhao Xiangling asked with a smile.

The man nodded, "I know a little." ”

Zhao Xiangling said: "Then you will stay for a few days, I just lack a piper here, and I will wait for the fifteenth banquet to go, what do you think?" ”

The man smiled and worshipped, his sleeves flickering slightly like green bamboo leaves: "Thanks to Your Majesty's love, how can there be any reason to excuse yourself?" ”

Zhao Xiangling was satisfied: "Let's go down." ”

When everyone heard this, they all wanted to quit.

Zhao Xiangling said again: "Wait, I haven't let you go yet." That one...... What's his name? ”

Pointing to the victor among the five, Zhao Xiangling turned his head to Qingci and asked.

Celadon said: "Nanyi." ”

"To Nanyi, you, come here." Zhao Xiangling returned to the dragon seat and sat down, beckoning to Nanyi.

The palace maid was extremely efficient, and in just a few breaths, the assassin's corpse had been dragged away, and even the bloodstained carpet had been replaced.

Nanyi walked on the newly changed carpet, although the appearance was ordinary, but it gave people an extremely natural feeling. It seemed that he had already walked this road countless times, and even if he didn't have to look down, he was all too familiar with each staircase.

He stood still in front of Zhao Xiangling.

"Caomin Nanyi, meet Your Majesty."

He bowed down, and just wanted to kneel, a hand as cold as jade supported him: "Aiqing doesn't need to be polite." ”

Nan Yi just wanted to get up straight, but when he heard the wind in his ears, he felt that it was not good, so he dodged and avoided it, but his hand was grabbed by someone and he couldn't break free.

Zhao Xiangling said in his ear: "Li Aiqing is really idle, and he actually came to play hide and seek with me with a face." ”

As she spoke, she raised her hand to hook Nan Yi's face, grabbed a corner and tore it hard, even the oldest and calmest celadon couldn't bear to flash her gaze.

Under the mask of human skin, the snow melts in early spring, and it is covered with red plums in winter. A pair of starry eyes flying across the nine heavens, a pair of cold eyebrows that seem to be angry but not angry.

It is as warm as spring, and as cold as winter.

was torn off his mask, and the comer only bent down slightly, and said slowly in his usual flat tone: "Your Majesty." ”

He did not bow down again.

The Li family had several life-saving graces in the first emperor, so the first emperor granted amnesty, and the descendants of the Li family did not need to bow down to the emperor.

Zhao Xiangling had already sat down again, her legs folded, and she looked at the comer: "Should Li Xiang explain to me?" ”

Li Xiang of the current dynasty, named Li Che, the word Ruiqing, was only twenty and four, and was the youngest prime minister in the history of the southern country.

In the people, he is a flawless medical immortal who descended on the world, solved the plague in the north of the city in three days, was generous and selfless, and was not afraid of hardships and dangers; In the Jongmyo Temple, he was a righteous man who saved hundreds of officials from fire and water, the only person in the court who dared to stand up to the current emperor, never feared coercion, and never defended any innocent victims; But here in Zhao Xiangling......

Hum! Don't say it!

Li Ruiqing is still as noble and flawless as usual, with a serious expression like the stone carving of the eight kings of the four corners of the eaves of the court: "Please also ask Your Majesty to stop here, don't be willful and reckless, and return to the right path as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Xiangling looked at him with such a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, and he didn't know whether to be angry or laugh. However, she still chose to laugh and said, "Isn't this feast of mine?" ”

"Naturally not good." Li Ruiqing was still full of seriousness, "Your Majesty, after this banquet, there is a lot of criticism of you in the court, although the gossip does not show the blade, but it can also pierce the hearts of the people, you put the imperial study here, it is inappropriate, and now it is not ...... to hold this banquet at the expense of the people and money."

"Isn't it a Ming Jun's move?" Zhao Xiangling chuckled, she looked at Li Ruiqing, there was a hint of hidden killing intent in her eyes, "So, Li Xiang thinks I am a faint king?" ”

Li Ruiqing's face remained unchanged, and he lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty opened the treasury for private use, put the advice of hundreds of officials in nothing, the affairs are backlogged, and the six ministries are all dissatisfied, the upper is sorry for the blue sky, and the lower is sorry for the people. ”

Zhao Xiangling smiled: "Extraordinary law? Could it be that Li Xiang wants the yellow robe to add to his body and replace me? ”

"I don't dare."

Zhao Xiangling sneered and said to the celadon beside him: "Spread the message." ”

Celadon knelt on the ground and listened to the command.

"Li Che, the left minister, is old and frail, so he begs for bones. I felt a deep pity, thinking that the Li family was the only heir, and he had meritorious service in the court, gave him thousands of acres of fertile land, 10,000 catties of gold, and returned to the Jiangnan Water Township to live in the guest house, and returned to the court after his illness was cured. ”

This is to demean to degrade the left minister. What kind of illness is good to return to the court, how can those who are degraded have a reason to come back? What is senile and frail? He Li Ruiqing is twenty-four years old, in his prime, where did the beggar bones come from!

Li Ruiqing took a step forward: "Your Majesty, you don't have to draw up a decree, the minister has legs, go by yourself!" ”

However, both of them knew in their hearts that no one could shake the position of Zuo Xiangling, even if Zhao Xiangling was the emperor, he could not be dismissed.

Zhao Xiangling ignored him and said sharply: "The national teacher Nanyi, with a dignified appearance, is specially given to Wutong Palace, and the palace is sixteen people, as a reward." ”

The red sleeves are flying, like two butterflies that have just come out of the shell, dancing, and the peony embroidered with gold thread on it seems to be laughing and angry.

Li Ruiqing still took a step forward, almost touching the bright red butterfly: "Your Majesty, you are just making trouble for yourself by being imprisoned in the palace." ”

"If I have to, what should you do?" Zhao Xiangling laughed. She pointed at Li Ruiqing, and the anger in her eyes became heavier and heavier.

Li Ruiqing lowered his head: "If Your Majesty is determined to do this, set up a national teacher, and arbitrarily remove the phase, it will inevitably cause a big wave in the court, and the people's hearts will be unstable, and they will also be faint!" ”

Speaking later, his voice also became louder.

But Zhao Xiangling is more confident than him. She smiled in her coldest voice, word by word: "Faint Jun." Li Ruiqing, you really think so! ”

"Come on, press the national master into the Wutong Palace, no one is allowed to enter or leave without my order!"

Zhao Xiangling laughed, stretched out his arms, and the two guards on the left and right appeared like phantoms, suppressing Li Ruiqing's hand.

Li Ruiqing did not resist, he looked at Zhao Xiangling quietly, as calm as ever: "Your Majesty, the minister is the left minister, there is no reason to abolish the prime minister for no reason in the history of the southern country, if you want to cut off the back road, no wonder the minister is not emotional!" ”
