Chapter 318: I Want More Than Just Loyal Courtiers

Sheng Zhiyao's face turned even redder when she heard this, and she turned around to continue stir-frying, but her ears were hot.

"You've seen a lot of beautiful women!"

Feng Yuanchen was stunned when he heard this, and he hurriedly shook his head: "No, I didn't."

Sheng Zhiyao pursed her lips disdainfully: "It's strange that I believe you!"

"Not really, I didn't lie to you!" Feng Yuanchen eagerly explained, "How can those women compare to my Zhiyao?"

When Sheng Zhiyao heard this, his heart was sweet, but on the surface, he pretended to be serious: "I'm going to marry your princess, if you let me know that you are attracting bees and butterflies outside, hum......

Seeing this, Feng Yuanchen hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Absolutely not."

"Really?" Sheng Zhiyao glanced at him suspiciously.

"Of course!" Feng Yuanchen said firmly, "I swear!"

"Okay...... Sheng Zhiyao thought for a moment, "Then I believe you once."

"Thank you!" Feng Yuanchen said happily.

The two of them talked and laughed, and soon the dinner was ready.

Feng Yuanchen brought out the food, looked at the colorful and fragrant food on the table, and couldn't help swallowing: "Look at me I'm hungry."

"Eat it." Sheng Zhiyao urged with a smile.

When Feng Yuanchen heard this, he immediately sandwiched a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth.

"Hmm...... It's so fresh!" Feng Yuanchen closed his eyes in satisfaction.

"How? Do you think that marrying me is equivalent to owning the entire imperial dining room?" Sheng Zhiyao asked with a smile.

"Hmm." Feng Yuanchen nodded honestly, "What more can you ask for if you have a wife like this?"

"Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious." Feng Yuanchen replied vaguely while eating.

Sheng Zhiyao saw him like this, and the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but deepen a little.

"Why don't you eat it?" Feng Yuanchen suddenly found that Sheng Zhiyao had been staring at him, so he raised his head and asked.

Sheng Zhiyao shook his head when he heard this: "I ate too many snacks in the afternoon, and now I am not hungry at all."

"I told you, don't eat so many potato chips." Feng Yuanchen had a reproachful look.

"Got it!" Sheng Zhiyao muttered.

When Feng Yuanchen saw Sheng Zhiyao's appearance, he couldn't help but smile: "Okay, hurry up and try your cooking skills tonight."

Sheng Zhiyao didn't shirk when she heard this, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite.

"Hmm...... Not bad." Sheng Zhiyao praised, "My craftsmanship has always been good."

Feng Yuanchen smiled and didn't say anything, just staring intently at Sheng Zhiyao's cheek.

Sheng Zhiyao noticed Feng Yuanchen's gaze, a flush appeared on his face, and he lowered his head and tasted the food slowly.

"Feng Yuanqing's matter has been settled, how do you plan to arrange the imperial grandmother's birthday banquet?" Feng Yuanchen suddenly remembered, so he asked.

Sheng Zhiyao heard Feng Yuanchen's question, paused for a while, and then slowly spoke: "Everyone hasn't been very happy recently, and presumably the palace is also very depressed, so naturally I want to be happy."

"But your body is ......," Feng Yuanchen said worriedly.

"Don't worry, isn't there still you?" Sheng Zhiyao smiled at Feng Yuanchen.

"Good!" Feng Yuanchen nodded heavily, "Everything is done according to your wishes."

"Well, that's decided." After Sheng Zhiyao finished speaking, he took another dish with chopsticks and sent it to Feng Yuanchen's bowl.

The next day, the morning morning time.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, and after listening to the recitals of the ministers, he was silent for a long time.

The ministers below were speculating about what the emperor was thinking at this time.

After a while, the emperor announced Sheng Zhengye as prime minister.

This news, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, made the ministers talk about it.

Many old ministers began to oppose it.

"Although the emperor Sheng Zhengye is a prince, he has no real power, and he can't govern the country and save the people, how can he be the prime minister? Isn't this child's play?

"That's it, the emperor thinks twice!"

"Your Majesty, don't listen to their nonsense, they all want to take the opportunity to sow discord!"

The emperor listened to the dispute of the ministers, his face was calm, but his hands clenched into fists revealed his emotions.

"Shut up!" The emperor snorted coldly, shocking everyone, and the hall was silent for an instant.

After a long time, the emperor spoke: "Although Sheng Zhengye has no real power, he has a pure heart that loves the people of Liming, and I believe that he is capable of this position."

When the old ministers below heard this, they were speechless.

The emperor trusts an idle prince so much, how can this convince them?

"Your Majesty, instead of letting Sheng Zhengye be the prime minister, why don't you let Old Marquis Sheng do it?" Some ministers couldn't help but ask, "After all, he was also the prime minister."

"Do you think I don't want to? Of course, I asked, but Old Marquis Sheng didn't want to." The emperor sighed, "Didn't you force him to abdicate and make way for Xian back then? Now you think of the old marquis."

"Your Majesty ......" there are ministers who want to defend again.

The emperor waved his hand to stop him from going on.

"Although Old Marquis Sheng is not in the court, I have always remembered his contribution to the court." The emperor continued.

When the ministers below heard this, they all lowered their heads, not daring to refute.

"This matter is so decided, there is no need to discuss it anymore, the position of the prime minister should have belonged to the Sheng family, do any of you dare to say that your intelligence is comparable to that of the old marquis Sheng? Can you surpass him in your deeds to Shang Zhou?" The emperor's words were loud and loud, and he was not angry and arrogant.

The ministers were taken aback by these words and hung their heads in unison.

Seeing that they didn't speak, the emperor continued: "At the beginning, Sheng Lixin was forced to abdicate and make way for Xian, and none of you could take the top, so it was hard to come up with a Qi phase, but what was the result? The result?"

In the end, the emperor's tone raised a little, and his face was extremely ugly.

When the ministers below heard this, they lowered their heads even more.

They knew that the emperor was really angry.

"Okay, I have decided, although Sheng Zhengye has never participated in court politics, he has a keen insight and unique ideas about court affairs." The emperor continued, "What's more, there is the help of Old Marquis Sheng behind him, I believe you will soon be able to get acquainted with it."

"Your Ministers obey." The ministers replied in unison.

The emperor saw that the attitude of the ministers was quite good, so he no longer cared about the opposition of the ministers just now.

"There's one more thing I hope you don't forget." The emperor suddenly became serious, "What I want is not only loyal courtiers, but also humerus ministers who can advise me and assist the government and government!"

The courtiers below hurriedly bowed their heads and replied, "The ministers remember the emperor's teachings!"

"Alright, retreat!" After the emperor finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the court.

After the emperor left, the ministers below talked about it.

"This Sheng Zhengye really has two brushes, and he actually makes the emperor rely on him so much."

"What's so strange about this, after all, his father is the old marquis of Sheng."
