After that, the three of them finished their meal in silence, but Lu Changan still didn't mention participating in the court meeting.

Liu Yunxiang had already guessed it, she was not impatient, got up and poured a glass of wine for Lu Changan.

"King Suping, this palace toasts you." As she spoke, she drank the glass in her hand first.

Lu Changan picked up the wine glass and twisted it around the tips of his fingers, "Yunxiang, after drinking this glass of wine, this king has to agree?" ”

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "It's just a glass of wine." ”

"I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?"

"If anything, this palace really wants to care about the situation in Zhenbei and Lingnan, the garrisons in these two places were originally going to send military registration books to Beijing, but they were delivered?"

Sending the military register is to return to the imperial court, but the premise is that the king of Zhenbei or the prince of Zhenbei is on the throne, and they are not the imperial court, but their Zhenbei royal mansion.

Lu Changan looked at Liu Yunxiang, a little incredible, "It's just Zhenbei, Lingnan is also desperate to follow your Zhenbei Palace, why is this?" ”

"Whether it is the soldiers in the north of the town or the soldiers in the south of the country, they are all heroes who guard the border and do their best for the country. And in order to protect his family and country, Yan Du put himself in danger, and would rather shed blood and sacrifice than take a step back. They saw his pattern and his efforts, so they admired him from the bottom of their hearts. can be admired by a group of hot-blooded soldiers, and naturally they are not worried about their disloyalty. Liu Yunxiang said.

Lu Changan shook his head, "This king can also do it, but this king has one less person like you who fully supports him." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Changan raised his head and drank the glass of wine in his hand.

"In fact, before coming again, the king has already ordered to go down, and the court will start tomorrow, please get up early to prepare, and ask the queen mother to listen to the government." Lu Changan put down the wine glass and swept over the two of them, "You sit there, just be an ornament, don't be clever, it's not that the king is jealous, but it's useless." ”

After saying this, Lu Changan got up and left.

When Lu Changan walked away, Yan'er looked at Liu Yunxiang puzzled, "Mother, what does he mean by this?" ”

Liu Yunxiang thought about it for a while, and then smiled at Yan'er, "We don't have to think about it, tomorrow we will go to the court, talk more when we are profitable, and don't speak when we are not profitable, after all, if we can participate in the court meeting, it will break the deadlock." ”

"Hmm."

"The more you learn and see more, it will be beneficial for you to be pro-government in the future."

"Yan'er knows."

Early the next morning, Liu Yunxiang put on the crown dress of the Queen Mother, waited for Yan'er outside the Chengtian Palace to put on the yellow robe, and then pulled him to the main hall of the court.

The mother and son clasped hands and said that it was impossible not to be nervous, after all, it was the first time they had participated in such an occasion.

"Mother, I'm afraid of saying the wrong thing."

"You are the emperor, what you say will not be wrong."

"What if it's wrong?"

"There's a mother."

"Where's Daddy now?"

"He's in a far away place, trying to figure out how to get back."

"Oh, then we have to hold on to this country and wait for him to come back."

"Well, Yan'er is awesome!"

In the court, with Qin Yan and Liu Yunxiang seated, the courtiers below also stood on both sides, all of them looking respectful. But Liu Yunxiang found that there were many ministers who had not gone to court today, and the hall was sparsely populated.

The court meeting was still presided over by Lu Changan, although it was the emperor who invited the performance, but he was the one who took the idea.

At this time, Xue Hesong stepped forward and said that Xiao Meng, the overseer of Youzhou, did not listen to the imperial edict and acted without authorization five times, fearing that he had bad intentions, and asked for him to be recalled to Shengjing for trial.

Several other ministers also seconded the proposal, saying that Youzhou had an army of 30,000 and was a fortress in the Central Plains and the North, and that it must not be taken lightly.

Liu Yunxiang wanted to participate in the court meeting, which was to prevent the imperial court from recalling Xiao Meng and settle accounts after the autumn.

"According to the palace, General Xiao sent troops to Baichuan Gorge to save the people trapped by the mountain fire, and they are also confronting the West Vietnamese army, what is wrong?" Liu Yunxiang said.

As soon as she said this, no one spoke anymore.

After a moment of silence, Lu Changan said, "Then according to what you said, recall Xiao Meng first." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and saluted the emperor again, "The recalled edict, this king will let the Hanlin Academy draft it, and ask the emperor and the queen mother to look at it and affix the seal." ”

Liu Yunxiang frowned, is this when they are air?

These are all Lu Changan's people, naturally they didn't support her, but other ministers, were they suppressed by Lu Changan or what, why didn't they participate in the court meeting?

Before the next court, Liu Yunxiang brought up Wu Min's case again, but still no one paid attention to her.

Back in the harem, Liu Yunxiang thought about it, and then took Zijin and Feng Zheng out of the palace.

I went to the mansions of several ministers one after another, but none of them invited her into the mansion, some were sick, some were not at home, and some were even at home for funerals.

finally came to the mansion of Gao Wenchang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, but was still turned away. It's just that when he was about to leave, the gatekeeper gave Feng Zheng a note.

"This tall man is waiting for you in Yunxiang Restaurant."

Liu Yunxiang hurriedly rushed over, came to the private room on the second floor, pushed the door in, and when Gao Wenchang saw her, he did not salute first, but asked his subordinates to quickly close the door, so as not to be seen by the eyeliner of the West Factory.

After the door closed, Gao Wenchang saluted Liu Yunxiang.

"Queen Mother, the lower official is rude."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "Master Gao knows who I am, right?" ”

"Know, you are the princess of Zhenbei, and naturally you are also the justifiable queen mother."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, she sat on the throne of the queen mother with the identity of Ye Yao, and deceived many courtiers and people all over the world, but those ministers who had been friends with the Zhenbei Wangfu before, because they had seen her, couldn't hide it.

This Gao Wenchang is that Yan Duan once served in the Criminal Department and once single-handedly promoted Gao Wenchang.

"Today, the palace and the emperor attended the court meeting, and many ministers were sick." Liu Yunxiang sat down and said.

Gao Wenchang sighed, "If you are sick, you don't dare to offend Lu Changan." ”

"Oh?"

"This Lu Chang'an's methods are too ruthless, a few days ago when discussing political affairs outside the palace, an official of the Ministry of Rites proposed that the court meeting should be restored to normal, and invited the emperor and the queen mother to participate. As a result, the next day, Xichang found out that the official had accepted bribes, and he was dismissed from his official position on the same day, and he had to pay ten times the fine to the imperial court, forcing the official to sell his son and daughter in the end. After this incident, everyone was afraid, so those who could find an excuse not to participate today did not participate, and even if they did, they did not talk much. Gao Wenchang said helplessly.

Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment, "This official of the Ministry of Rites accepted bribes, but he had a handle, you haven't done these things, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Master Wu Min Wu, he is above board, and he still ends up like that."

Liu Yunxiang sighed heavily, in fact, he couldn't blame these ministers, who wanted to make trouble for himself.

No wonder Lu Changan would have so many last night, it turned out that he had expected today's situation.

No, she had to find a way to make the courtiers trust their mother and son!
