083. Joint Session
The three of General Watsu rushed back to the palace and saw the sullen Qing Ming in the study. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing that there were no people around, Qing Ming said to Du Sheng with some anger: "Rosemary? I have seen it in the Dao of the Human World, it is just an ordinary spice plant, but I didn't expect that in the Xuantian Dao, it would turn sexual, such an evil sect! General, seeing your reaction to hearing this flower in the Prime Minister's Mansion just now, you should have already known how powerful the rosemary in the Xuantian Dao is, why didn't you remind me?"
Long Xing and Yang Yong listened in a fog and were confused.
General Dusheng smiled slightly, and said nonchalantly: "King Ming, in my opinion, Mrs. Minghui was indeed kind just now! You think, when Yun Li entered the palace for a long time, you were still a fake husband and wife, and your mother-in-law must be in a hurry!"
Qing Ming retorted: "But before the canonization ceremony, I agreed with my mother that two years will be used as the investigation period of our relationship, if there is still no love within two years, we can break up, and it will not hurt Yun Li!"
Wataru shook his head with a smile and said, "Alas, King Ming, I have stayed in the world because I am looking for your soul, and I can understand your feelings. But you see, firstly, in our Xuantian Dao, men can have multiple wives, especially aristocratic men, such as me, in addition to my wife, I also have two concubines! It's normal! Moreover, couples who can't get along, as long as both parties agree, can be separated! Oh, just like the 'divorce' in the world! It won't delay Yun Li! Second, isn't the Lingyue princess you have in mind already married to the bright monarch of the arrogant country?"
Qing Ming's heart was a mess and he was manic.
Du Sheng stopped joking, and said seriously: "What's more, Yun Li's situation, you don't know that her father has a prominent position, and before you ascended the throne, he controlled the government for 18 years, and he has a deep foundation. What this political marriage means to you and to the entire Bronze Clan, I believe you should understand!"
Hearing this, Qing Ming gradually calmed down and fell into deep thought.
Seeing that he could accept his own persuasion, Du Sheng continued: "Yun Li is a nobleman of the Iron Clan, and according to the etiquette law of the Great Dependent Country, she is destined not to be a queen in this life, so Yun Sheng's prime minister's plan is just a place in your harem." As we all know, you will soon be in power, not to mention that he has lost his authority, and he will be somewhat worried about being discovered by you for what he has done before! Therefore, the prime minister is already restless, but as a result, you don't even give this face, I am really worried that he will have different intentions!"
Qing Ming was in a dilemma and was speechless for a while.
Long Xing connected what Fang had just seen and heard in the Prime Minister's Mansion, as well as the content of the conversation between the two of them, and suddenly realized that the core issue was the relationship between Qing Ming and Yun Li, and he had more or less determined that Xuantian Dao was polygamous, so he patted Qing Ming's back with a wicked smile and said with a smile: "Ah Ming, your Yanfu is really not shallow!
Qing Ming took a sip and shouted, "You kid!"
Thinking incomprehensibly, Qing Ming was bored for a while, and simply summoned the Himalayan vulture Alan Whine, flew to the Yuesheng Cave, and began an intoxicating exercise against the sword book, and when he was fanatical, he danced a dazzling array of sword flowers.
The next morning, when he returned to the palace, he saw a few guards with serious expressions standing dry outside his bedroom, cold and deserted, knowing that Yun Li had rested at his mother's house all night and had not yet returned to the palace, he couldn't help but feel melancholy in his heart. In fact, for Qing Ming, every time he returned to the palace, Yun Li always waited outside the dormitory, and for such a long time, it seemed to have become a habit, not only Yun Li's habit, but also his own habit. However, is it a habit, or is it a long-term love? Qing Ming shook his head, he couldn't figure it out.
After washing up and having breakfast, the guards came to report that Prime Minister Yun Sheng personally escorted Concubine Yun back to the palace.
Qing Ming came out of the palace, Yun Sheng was about to bow his hands, he bowed in front of the old man, and apologized: "Old Xiangguo, this king occasionally felt unwell yesterday, didn't say hello, and left the house early, it's really rude!
Yun Sheng smiled slightly, and said: "King Ming came to the mansion, he was unwell, we didn't greet him well! I also ask King Ming to forgive me! The little girl was reluctant to let her mother go, so we kept her for one night, King Ming won't blame, right?"
Qing Ming glanced at Yun Li, her eye bags bulged slightly, as if she didn't rest last night, she felt guilty in her heart, and said to the prime minister: "How can you blame it! Concubine Yun is homesick, she can go back to visit at any time!"
Yun Sheng waved his hand and said, "Eh! As a concubine, she has already entered the palace, how can she come and go at will!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Yun Li thoughtfully, then at Qing Ming, and said, "Today, the old man came in person, in fact, he was entrusted by his wife to have something to say to King Ming." ”
Qing Ming led his father and daughter to the study, retreated from the people, and asked the prime minister to speak.
The old prime minister stroked the long hair under his chin, lowered his voice, and said straight to the point: "King Ming, we shouldn't have interfered in the affairs of your little couple, but we can also see the clues from yesterday's scene." Yun Li, a child, has been pampered in the Prime Minister's Mansion since he was a child, and I am afraid that he will not be able to satisfy King Ming!"
Yun Li's face was flushed, Qing Ming felt embarrassed for a while, and hurriedly responded: "No! I came from the human world, and I really don't understand the rules of Xuantian Dao!
When Qing Ming was in the world, he was a gentleman, and he was always very considerate of others, and his righteous personality made him never appear arrogant and unreasonable.
Prime Minister Yun Sheng smiled and said: "The old man is also a person who has come over! You must know that if there is no trust between husband and wife, of course they will not be intimate! Yun Li likes to practice Yuancong Technique the most, although her skills are not perfect, but I know that this will bring some burden to King Ming! After all, there are rumors in the market now that the old man controls the government and refuses to return to the king!"
Qing Ming took a sip and said, "Who is chewing the root of the tongue, it's really groundless!"
Prime Minister Yunsheng looked calm and calm, and said: "So, in order to avoid misunderstanding from the outside world, the old man specially invited King Ming to go to the Shangshu Joint Conference today! This is also an important part of your pro-government cultivation plan!"
Qing Ming arched his hand and said, "Thank you Prime Minister for arranging!"
Yun Sheng returned the salute and said, "The old man should be like this!"
Immediately, he looked up at Qing Ming, with a little kindness in his eyes, and said gently: "Actually, before Li'er entered the palace, I warned her that she should not exercise the Yuancong technique at will in the palace, especially to observe the whereabouts of King Ming, it is absolutely impossible! This child has been well-behaved since she was a child, I believe that she must be acting according to her father's requirements! King Ming, please rest assured! However, she has been in a simple environment since she was a child, and in this regard, she is slow to behave, I guess she has never expressed her stance on Yuancong in front of you, right? King Ming is worried, it is really understandable!"
Sure enough, the reason for this simple point, the old prime minister has long been insightful, and now he said it directly, it can be seen that he intends to promote the relationship between Qingming and Yun Li.
Qing Ming began to think quickly in his mind, since he woke up in Xuantian Dao, from the sword drawing ceremony to the pro-government, Yun Sheng has been delaying everywhere, and he has heard King Qingyuan and his mother talk about the experience of the prime minister controlling the government, and he has almost put him on the opposite side in his heart, and he is always and everywhere careful. Now, looking at his attitude towards Yun Li's affairs, he has the intention of being close to himself, whether it is good or evil, and slowly observes.
Since his avoidance of the Yuancong technique has long been clearly detected by the other party, Qing Ming no longer concealed it, and said with a smile: "The prime minister is really discerning! It's me who is not thoughtful! Since the prime minister is so honest, then the king is also open and honest! If the junior sister agrees not to use the Yuancong technique behind my back, I should be sincerely grateful! However, I have lived in the human Dao for eighteen years, and I have not been able to adapt to the marriage system of the Xuantian Dao for a while, so please ask the prime minister and the junior sister to give me some time! Now, practicing royal spells and participating in pro-government training, I am already anxious, and I really don't have any extra time and energy to spend on falling in love!"
When he said the end, his face was already flushed, and Prime Minister Yunsheng looked at it in his eyes, smiling and silent.
When Yun Li heard his words, the knots in her heart were temporarily untied, and she was in a much more cheerful mood, she looked at him shyly, and said softly: "King Ming, don't worry, Li'er has never used the Yuancong technique on you!
Qing Ming looked at her and smiled, and Yun Li's heart was suddenly full of sunshine.
Prime Minister Yunsheng was quite satisfied, ended the conversation, and took Qingming to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Eighteen years ago, since the establishment of the joint meeting system, it has been presided over by Prime Minister Yunsheng, mainly for the affairs of the imperial court, and occasionally related to the criminal department, the military department, and foreign affairs, will invite King Qingyuan and others to participate in advance.
At the long table, Zhong Quan, Yun Hui, Ming Su, Yun Yi and others sat upright in order, and when they saw Qing Ming coming, Yun Hui had a look of surprise on her face, and she immediately returned to calm. A table stood up to salute, Qing Ming and Prime Minister Yun Sheng sat at the two ends of the long table, and the meeting began.
Qing Ming looked around and saw that in the entire joint meeting hall, there were only Zhong Quan and himself, as well as General Dusheng, who was in charge of his own defense work, the three of them were from the Bronze Clan, and the rest of the people were all elites of the Iron Clan! The Aluminum Clan and other families did not have a single figure! It seems that the Iron Clan's control of the imperial court is indeed worthy of its reputation!
Yun Shengcheng introduced the history of the joint meeting to Qing Ming in general, and then invited Qing Ming to speak.
Qing Ming smiled slightly, his expression was calm, and he said: "This king is young and inexperienced, before the pro-government, the presiding officers of the joint meeting were all Prime Minister Yunsheng! I came, just to ask you for advice! Please preside over the Prime Minister!"
Yunsheng nodded, did not shirk, and loudly announced the beginning of the meeting, and invited Shangshu, who had a proposal, to speak.
Yun Hui took the lead in getting up, bowed to Qing Ming and Prime Minister respectively, and said loudly: "Weichen has a proposal, which is about the promotion order of iron farming tools proposed last time. As we all know, iron farming tools are sturdy and durable, and they should be vigorously popularized in order to promote agricultural production in our country! However, some villages now use prohibited items without the permission of the imperial court, violating the laws and regulations of the imperial court. Please be aware of the Prime Minister and severely punish him!"
Zhong Quan asked, "What are the prohibited items?"
Yun Hui replied: "Tools of unknown origin outside the catalogue of agricultural tools promoted by the imperial court!"
Qing Mingxin said that this answer was really perfunctory! But since he said it in advance, and it was the first time he participated in the meeting, he kept silent and continued to listen.
Zhong Quan was about to ask, his mouth opened slightly, and before the words could be spoken, suddenly, he only heard a "whoosh" sound, and then a "click", the voice was sonorous and powerful, crisp and neat, interrupting Zhong Quan's questioning.
When everyone looked at it, they saw that on the pillar of the council hall, there was a long feathered arrow, the arrow was very deep into the wood, and a blood-red ribbon was fluttering by inertia.
On the ribbon, eight big characters were written in black ink: "If people look at the sky, rusty iron will die!"
Yun Sheng slapped the table, stood up, snorted, and said angrily: "What a bold man! Dare to act so recklessly in my Prime Minister's Mansion! Quickly search for me! Dig three feet into the ground, and turn the assassin out for me!"
The guards on duty in the chamber sprang into action, and the joint meeting was terminated.
Qing Ming faintly felt that this matter was not trivial, and an irreconcilable contradiction and conflict seemed to be brewing, and he couldn't help but be a little worried.
Zhong Quan walked up to him and said in a low voice: "The Shangshu Joint Council has always been the world of the elite of the Iron Clan! I think the assassins are not targeting King Ming! You don't have to worry! Wechen will do his best to protect you!"
