Chapter 293 The Minister Was Beaten
Chapter 293 The Minister Was Beaten
Liu Rumei had no idea that she had become a thorn in Rong Fei's side.
But it wouldn't matter even if she knew, because she didn't care about this woman at all.
She has more important things to do now.
For example, standing in the court and looking at the civil and military officials below.
At this moment, Liu Rumei was standing in the court. She looked at the civil and military officials below and felt it was really exciting.
Of course, the civil and military officials below also found it very exciting.
What exactly is going on!
I came to court with a lot of things on my mind, but I didn't expect to have such an unexpected surprise.
Such a big thing happened in the North, the Northern Rong are about to attack!
They couldn't sleep last night, just thinking about what to do.
But their emperor, their majesty, actually brought a woman to court!
Moreover, the emperor even let this woman stand by his side? !
Now, all the civil and military officials had the same expression, one of disbelief. Their faces were filled with disbelief.
Although His Majesty is somewhat suspicious and incompetent, he has never been a person willing to put his heart into relationships between men and women.
What favorite concubine?
They have never seen it!
What happened today? Why did you suddenly change your mind?
In short, the ministers have already thought of the impeachment words.
Although you are the emperor, you cannot do whatever you want.
The woman's status is humble, how can she stand in the court?
In short, they must not turn a blind eye and must not allow anyone to undermine the order of the court.
"His Majesty!"
The Minister of Rites stepped forward, and the Minister of Revenue was also ready.
Even the old prince who was in charge of clan affairs coughed twice and prepared to stand up.
But at this moment, the emperor coughed.
The emperor not only coughed, but also coughed severely.
"Shut up, everyone!"
The emperor had never spoken so directly before, without even giving me any face.
The ministers were a little hesitant. Was it really okay to say this directly to the emperor?
After all, one careless move could result in the execution of the entire family.
When their Majesty becomes cruel, he is not at all merciful.
Look at the ending of the Lin family. Their property was confiscated and they were exiled. Not a single one of them survived.
All in all, they dare not speak casually now.
Even if we know that the emperor did something wrong, we can still understand it as long as it is not too outrageous.
After all, he is the emperor, holding the power of life and death. It shouldn't be a big deal if he is willful occasionally, right?
"Read my imperial edict."
At the emperor's words, Steward Wang came running out and read out the imperial edict.
Anyway, it's just a bunch of words of praise, and then the content of the reward.
What is surprising is that these words of praise are not directed at a woman, but are generally used for men.
Loyal and brave?
Indifferent to fame and fortune?
Caring about the people of the world?
Are you kidding? Does the emperor want to appoint this girl as a general?
Or does this girl want to rebel?
Why do you still care about the people?
Soon they were dumbfounded, because the emperor actually named this girl the Saint Protector of the Country!
What is the use of the National Guard Saint?
Is it used for marriage?
This is possible, after all, there was a war in the north at that time.
They have to prepare in advance, what if they lose?
If they lost the battle, in order to maintain superficial peace, in addition to sending gold, silver, treasures, food and other items to the other party, they naturally had to send a princess over.
But their princesses had never suffered hardship and were all spoiled, so naturally they could not marry.
Generally speaking, she would be chosen from the daughters of clansmen or ministers and sent as a princess.
But now a woman has been directly conferred a title, does that mean that this woman is going to be married off to a foreign prince?
But it doesn't make sense. If they really wanted to send her to marry a foreign prince, she should be given the title of a county princess, or at most a princess.
But why was she named the Holy Maiden of National Defense?
This sounds like a nominal position, but the status is not low at all.
And what does it mean to be below one man and above ten thousand men?
What does it mean that you don’t have to kneel or perform formalities when meeting the king?
Isn't this too much of an honor?
“My dear ministers, you don’t know the ability of the Saintess who protects the country.
She is a master of the mysterious world, out of reach!
It is also an opportunity to pass through Dayong on the way down the mountain for experience.
The Holy Lady Protector of the Nation is of noble status. My dear ministers, when you see her in the future, you should treat her as if you were seeing me. You must not have any disrespect in your heart.
In addition, from today on, the Saint will stand in the court and sit next to me."
These words were so stimulating that they finally understood what it meant to be second only to one person and above ten thousand others.
Isn't this bullying?
They should kneel before the emperor, but why should they kneel before an inexplicable saint?
Besides, they have a question.
Your Majesty, are you really in your right mind?
If you are in your right mind, how can you make such a crazy decision?
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, you must think twice before you act!"
"Your Majesty, this is not in accordance with the rules of our ancestors!"
Everyone said so, and it could be said that all civil and military officials thought so.
Soon, a large group of people knelt on the ground.
They shouted at the top of their lungs.
They all disagreed, and they even forgot the majesty of the emperor.
When the emperor saw this scene, he felt pain on his face. He was slapped in the face very badly.
A majestic emperor is one where no matter what decision he makes, his ministers dare not resist.
Even though the decision was confusing and unreasonable, the ministers did not dare to say anything.
But the current situation is obviously not the case.
Now that he is still sitting here, these ministers dare to make decisions. They deserve to die.
He is the emperor, what he says is right, and no one should question it.
"Shut up! You are questioning me! How dare you question me!
If anyone dares to make a noise in the court, don't blame me for being ruthless. I will hold you accountable for your disrespect!"
The emperor didn't want to offend all the ministers, so he didn't have the intention to kill them. Otherwise, he would have killed a few of them to establish his authority.
When everyone heard what the emperor said, they knew they could not go on.
But they feel wronged and they don't want to do it.
So all the ministers sat on the ground and cried, and each of them cried miserably.
At this moment, Liu Rumei didn't say anything, but just sat on the chair.
The chair was right next to him, just below the throne.
Liu Rumei suddenly sat down, which also surprised everyone.
Who is this girl?
How can she be so courageous?
Liu Rumei raised the corners of her mouth slightly, then waved her hand.
Then I saw vines growing above the hall and under the feet of the ministers.
The vines were very tough and bound them together more tightly than ropes.
"What is this? How could this happen?"
"Why can't I move?"
In the blink of an eye, none of the ministers kneeling on the ground could move, while the ministers standing received no punishment.
When the emperor saw this scene, he felt very relieved.
You deserve it!
