Chapter 182: Reluctant

Jing Yuan put on his stand as the emperor, Nangong looked up at Jing Yuan, his face first stiffened, and then he smiled back at Jing Yuan, "Yes, it's the palace that is rude, please don't blame the emperor."

Jing Yuan just glanced at Nangong, then raised his head and said to the other envoys, "I hope that this time we only need to talk about state affairs, not private affairs, after all, it is now the opening of the Congress, we should treat the Congress with a rigorous attitude, are you right about what I said?"

Jing Yuan said so, how could they say that what Jing Yuan said was wrong, so they all nodded and echoed Jing Yuan.

What Jing Yuan just said is indeed not wrong, the reason why this time the Congress will be held is to discuss the next development of the country and exchange some problems that countries often encounter, instead of talking about some things about Jing Yuan's harem like now.

Nangong also knew that he had just been rude, he bowed to Chu Xia and Jing Yuan slightly apologetically, and then turned back to his seat.

The corners of Jing Yuan's mouth raised a smile again, looked at everyone gently, and said, "The reason why you can open here means that you are all relatively outstanding figures in your country, since this is the case, I won't say much, now we will continue to exchange national affairs."

Jing Yuan's attitude has been obvious, since he has decided to only discuss national affairs and not talk about private affairs, everyone is also cooperating with Jing Yuan.

Chu Xia would sometimes say a few sentences, and her answer was to the point, which impressed everyone.

Nangong and Min Xing were full of praise for Chu Xia, and felt that Chu Xia was really a strange woman.

And Bei Mo and Su Xiqu sat on the side, they didn't say much, and they were not as wonderful as Chu Xia's answer, seeing Chu Xia being praised by Min Hang and Nangong like this, they were all uncomfortable in their hearts, looking at Chu Xia's smiling face, they felt that Chu Xia's face was full of pride.

Chu Xia was not because she was proud, the reason why she answered those questions was not to get praise from Nangong and Min Xing, nor to make Beimo and Su Xiqu jealous of her, but to say her thoughts, if it was right, if it could be adopted, then she hoped that it could be used to change the lives of the people, so that the people could live and work in peace and contentment, happiness and beauty.

"Oh yes, in the heart of this palace, I have actually been troubled by one thing, and this matter is the corruption of officials. You should know that officials are all related, officials protect each other, if you get rid of one, then there will be a second person to do his business, and if you want to get rid of an official, this is also a great damage to the country, not only that, but under the protection of officials, it is also difficult to get rid of an official. But if an official is found to be corrupt and is not punished in any way, then other officials will follow suit, and it will become more and more difficult to manage." Nangong suddenly thought of this matter and spoke.

Jing Yuan didn't speak, Bei Mo and Su Xiqu glanced at each other, and they didn't know what to do.

Min Hang didn't express any opinions.

It was as if time had stood still, and no one spoke, Chu Xia glanced at everyone, hesitated for a moment, and then said to everyone, "Actually, in my heart, I think that corruption is not particularly difficult to deal with."

Because Chu Xia's previous discussion was too amazing for everyone, so this time she spoke, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, Nangong looked at Chu Xia expectantly, and said, "What is the opinion of the queen mother?"

Chu Xia pursed the corners of her mouth lightly, her gaze locked firmly on Nangong, and she finally spoke, "The corruption of officials is mainly due to the lack of strict discipline in the imperial court. That's why the officials want to get a fortune."

Chu Xia didn't speak loudly, but it sounded very exciting, "I think that for the matter of corruption, it should be clearly stipulated to explain what kind of crime will be obtained by corruption, and then if someone is corrupt again, they must not bend the law for personal gain, and what kind of punishment they should get, it is what it is." Don't be afraid that too many people will be implicated, because if there are too many corrupt officials in a country, then the country will not be strong. Good officials, officials who love the people like children, there are still many in this world, and they must be good at discovering.

Nangong and Min Xing were all shocked by Chu Xia's remarks, the two of them didn't expect that a thin woman like Chu Xia would always be so sharp and decisive when she said it, which made them no longer underestimate Chu Xia.

Although Chu Xia's words were too ruthless and ruthless, it was a better way to deal with corruption.

Nangong and Min Xing both knew in their hearts that this kind of thing of corruption could not be tolerated.

"I didn't expect the queen to be so discerning, and she saw everything so thoroughly and hit the nail on the head. It is really a blessing for Chenguo to have a queen like you." Min Hang couldn't help but praise Chu Xia.

"This palace really hopes that the queen mother is from our country, and if this is the case, the development of our country must be much faster than now." Nangong looked at Chu Xia deeply.

Jing Yuan's face was complacent and happy, he raised his head and said complacently, "It's just a pity, my queen can only be from the Chen Kingdom."

Nangong looked at Jing Yuan proudly and full of possessiveness, smiled and said with admiration: "The emperor's vision is really good, this palace admires." Jing Yuan didn't say anything, and at this time, Chu Xia's face suddenly changed.

Jing Yuan saw it.

"What's wrong?" Jing Yuan lowered his head and looked at Chu Xia, and hurriedly asked.

Chu Xia covered her stomach, and she endured the pain in a muffled voice and said, "My stomach hurts." Jing Yuan glanced at Chu Xia's stomach, and he knew that Chu Xia felt pain because of the menstrual incident.

"Why did you have a good stomachache, wasn't it okay before?" Jing Yuan asked.

Chu Xia shook his head, "I don't know either, it suddenly hurts."

"Then you go back first." Jing Yuan couldn't bear to watch Chu Xia keep hurting, he raised his head, and wanted to ask someone to help Chu Xia back.

Chu Xia hurriedly grabbed Jing Yuan, "It's okay, I can still bear it."

"Can you?" Chu Xia's face turned a little white because of the pain, Jing Yuan really felt very distressed in his heart, and at the same time, he was not very sure, Chu Xia could bear it.

Chu Xia nodded, "Don't worry, I can do it." Congress is not done yet, and I can hold on."

"Well, I'll end Congress sooner." Jing Yuan reached out to hold Chu Xia's hand, giving Chu Xia warmth and strength.

Chu Xia smiled slightly, raising his head to make himself look less weak.

Nangong had been paying attention to Chu Xia and Jing Yuan, he obviously saw Chu Xia's discomfort, but he didn't even say anything to Jing Yuan, and Nangong didn't want to do much.

In the following time, everyone's discussion was still very intense, Chu Xia was not feeling well, so she spoke very little, many questions were answered by Jing Yuan, and she would say a sentence or two from time to time.

Even if it is only one or two sentences, it is enough to amaze Minhang and Nangong.

They couldn't stop praising Chu Xia in their hearts for being a strange woman, and whoever could have Chu Xia's support would win a lot.

Jing Yuan was indeed very lucky, Jing Yuan was good at talking, he was worried about Chu Xia in his heart, so he quickly ended the Congress.

Nangong and Min Hang didn't say anything, and Beimo naturally didn't want to stir up trouble, so he turned around and left.

Nangong and Min Hang were indeed reluctant to give up on this congress, but they could see the tension in Jing Yuan's eyes and the hidden pain in Chu Xia's eyes, so they wanted to embarrass Jing Yuan's words but didn't say it, and watched Jing Yuan take Chu Xia away.

"Does your stomach still hurt?" Putting Chu Xia on the bed in his dormitory, Jing Yuan asked nervously.

Chu Xia shook his head, "I feel a lot better since I came back."

Jing Yuan didn't know whether Chu Xia was comforting him or really didn't feel any pain, Jing Yuan couldn't rest assured that Chu Xia couldn't do it, so he kept accompanying Chu Xia, serving tea and pouring water for Chu Xia, and didn't leave until Chu Xia fell asleep.

The next day, Chu Xia and Jing Yuan got up very early, because the parliament was over, and as the emperor and empress of Chen Kingdom, they could not take them to visit the beautiful scenery of Chen Kingdom. "Does your stomach still hurt?" The first time Jing Yuan saw Chu Xia, he asked this

Chu Xia nodded, "Don't worry, it's much better."

After a night's rest, Chu Xia's stomach was almost better.

Bei Mo, Nangong, Min Hang, and Su Xiqu also came to the place they agreed upon, without a single guard and maidservant by their side, looking at Chu Xia and Jing Yuan, who also did not bring a person by their side, and asked, "Where are we going today?"

At the end of the Congress yesterday, Jing Yuan said that they would go out to play today, and they would all be ordinary people, and they would treat each other as friends, so when they asked Jing Yuan, they didn't regard Jing Yuan as the emperor.

After all, this was said by Jing Yuan himself, although they had been dissatisfied for a long time and had to be respectful to Jing Yuan.

Chu Xia and Jing Yuan naturally knew what they were thinking in their hearts, but since they had already decided, there was nothing to worry about.

After they left the palace, they were all ordinary people, and the capital of Chen was very famous in itself, and the surrounding area was even more beautiful.

Chu Xia and Jing Yuan had often been out of the palace before, and they had a very clear understanding of the situation outside the palace, so it was more appropriate for the two of them to lead the four of them together.

The scenery of Chenguo is different from the other three countries, and the scenery they see in Chenguo is something they have never seen before.

Min Hang couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration, "It's really beautiful here."

Su Xiqu said on the side, "Actually, there is a more beautiful place."
