Chapter 912 Questioning in the court.
Chapter 912 Questioning in the court.
Zhang Hanrui frowned, covered her chest, got off Li Mu, and whispered,
"Come in!"
Li Mu then remembered that she was still injured. He felt guilty and hurriedly held her hand, injecting a powerful vitality into her body.
However, when he made this move, Li Mu was stunned.
The vitality in his body is more than twice as much as before.
He was sure that he had not truly overcome his inner tribulation, so... was this power due to her?
Li Mu turned his head and looked at Ye Miaomiao in surprise.
He could clearly feel that now all he lacked to reach the next level was an opportunity.
...
"Don't let go yet!"
At this time, Zhang Hanrui uttered a light scolding, shook off Li Mu's hand, glared at her and said,
"Have I ever told you not to heal others in this way again?"
Zhang Hanrui was both moved and angry.
This stinky man doesn't take his own safety seriously at all.
With a personality like his, why would he think he could do such a thing!
The more Zhang Hanrui thought about it, the angrier she became, but she forgot that she once "firmly believed it."
As soon as Qi Xiangjun entered the room, he saw Zhang Hanrui shaking off Li Mu's hand with a blushing face, and his mind instantly became active.
It seems that the prince has not succeeded yet...
She was not dissatisfied with being 'looked down upon'.
Women are different from each other.
Although she entered the palace, she also practiced martial arts.
Even though he had only just reached the third level, he could still sense that the strength of the woman in front of him was "unfathomable."
Even the first-rank priest in her family who taught her kung fu was far inferior to him.
"Your Highness, Madam." Qi Xiangjun bowed gracefully, acting like a maid.
She had put away her previous coquettish look and returned to her usual gentle appearance.
She is a smart woman who knows when to use her charm.
Zhang Hanrui raised her eyebrows and looked at Qi Xiangjun.
With almond eyes, rosy cheeks and skin as white as cream, she was sent to the imperial palace, so her appearance was beyond reproach.
At the age of twenty-six or twenty-seven, she still has a good figure.
The most important thing is her innate quiet temperament, which makes people feel very approachable.
I have to praise her little Thirteen's vision of women.
Qi Xiangjun is indeed the most suitable person among the eight to be taken as a confidant.
"Did the Queen send someone to invite the prince to court?" Zhang Hanrui asked.
Qi Xiangjun knelt down again and said,
"Madam, it was Nanny Xian who came to ask in person."
Hearing this, Zhang Hanrui nodded secretly.
Just say what you saw, don't express your position, and let the host make his own judgment.
He is a person who knows the rules and knows how to handle things.
"Okay, go and reply, the prince will be here later."
Qi Xiangjun left as told, and before leaving he looked at Zhang Hanrui twice more silently.
From beginning to end, Li Mu didn't say a word. It was Zhang Hanrui who did all the talking. The two of them didn't even have any eye contact or body language communication.
If it was not arranged in advance, it would mean that Zhang Hanrui could make all the decisions regarding Li Mu's affairs.
Qi Xiangjun gritted his teeth, suddenly stopped, and said in a deep voice,
"Your Highness, Nanny Xian just told me to find some excuses and come back in half an hour to invite Your Highness to the court."
Zhang Hanrui was stunned for a moment, looked at Qi Xiangjun, and smiled,
"I know, go ahead."
……
main hall.
Officials were seated on both sides.
Behind the dragon throne, a pearl curtain hung down.
The queen, supported by her palace maids, sat on the phoenix couch.
At this time, a middle-aged official with a goatee stepped out and looked up behind the pearl curtain.
"I have one thing I don't understand, and I hope the Queen can help me understand it."
He stood up almost as soon as the queen sat down.
It is neither legal nor polite, as if it has been waiting for a long time.
Behind the pearl curtain, the queen cleared her throat, but she was not angry. She said in a questioning tone,
"I wonder what Master Feng is unclear about?"
Feng Cheng waved his sleeves, his face became more gloomy, and there was a hint of anger in his tone.
"Excuse me, Queen, did the Prince of Zhennan stay at Jingshuo Palace last night?"
The queen hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently and said, "That's right."
As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
Jingshuo Palace was the sleeping palace of the previous emperor and has long been abandoned.
Not to mention that it was inappropriate for Prince Zhennan to stay in the harem, and he chose the bedroom of the previous emperor, which is somewhat intriguing.
Lu Chongyun and Mu Zhen looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Before dawn today, Mu Zhen went to Linglong Waterside Pavilion.
Yin Huanping only told him that Li Mu went to the palace, but did not say that he went there last night and stayed overnight in the bedroom of the previous emperor.
The queen heard the ministers' discussion and said helplessly,
"Your Majesty once said that the Prince of Zhennan could stay in the palace at will. I am just following your Majesty's wishes. I wonder if Lord Feng has any questions?"
As soon as the words fell, some court officials objected.
"That can't be done in Jingshuo Palace!"
"Yes, what does this have to do with treason?"
The person who spoke was obviously on Zhuge Ping's side, and he was always trying to jump out to discredit Li Mu.
At the same time, a general who admired Li Mu's "character" also stood up.
"Bullshit! It's just a place to sleep, how come you turned it into treason?"
"Vulgar! How dare you speak so arrogantly in the hall!"
"What's wrong with me scolding you? If you dare to say no to the King of Zhennan again, I will beat you up!"
For a moment, the main hall turned into a vegetable market and it seemed that a fight was about to break out.
"Snapped!"
At this time, Nanny Xian waved the long whip in her hand.
When everyone heard the voice, they remembered the death of the Imperial Censor and immediately fell silent.
The Queen spoke again, her tone a little more majestic, "Lord Feng, are you dissatisfied with the Prince of Zhennan?"
"I dare not." Feng Cheng bowed, but his tone was still arrogant.
"I still have one thing I don't understand, please enlighten me, Queen."
"Speak!" The queen had obviously lost her patience and her tone was very unhappy.
"May I ask the Queen, where were the eight concubines in the harem, including Concubine Xuan, Concubine Qi, Concubine Feng, Lady Xia, and Lady Sheng, last night?"
Feng Cheng questioned angrily, especially the three words "Feng Jieyu" which he almost uttered with gritted teeth.
All the ministers looked at him in confusion, not understanding what his question was.
What does it have to do with your Ministry of Justice where the concubines in the harem spend the night?
As expected, someone immediately said in a sarcastic tone,
"I don't understand what Lord Feng is saying."
"You don't mean to say that all the concubines were also in Jingshuo Palace last night, hahahahaha."
However, after laughing twice, the man immediately realized something was wrong and shut up.
You could hear a pin drop in the hall.
It seemed that one could hear the Queen's heavy breathing.
"Feng Cheng!" the queen shouted, and then a sword energy flew out from behind the bead curtain.
Seeing this, Mu Zhen's face changed. He dodged and stood in front of Feng Cheng. He raised his hand to disperse the sword energy and bowed to persuade him.
"This is the imperial palace. If we attack officials innocently, we may be criticized. I hope the queen will calm down."
Behind the pearl curtain, the queen hesitated for a moment, suppressed her anger and said,
"Mr. Mu, Feng Cheng is committing an insubordination. He pointed at my nose and questioned me without any notice. Is he wrong?"
Mu Zhen nodded, turned around and looked at Feng Chengdao,
"Master Feng, you..."
Unexpectedly, before Mu Zhen finished speaking, Feng Cheng stepped past him and said with his neck stiff,
"I have been disrespectful to the Queen, and the Queen can punish me!"
"But before that, Queen, please answer this old minister's question!"
After saying this, the Queen slapped the bed and said angrily,
"Inverted!"
"Someone, drag Feng Cheng away for me!"
"Queen!" However, even so, Feng Cheng still refused to give in. He raised his hand, took off his official hat and threw it on the ground, saying angrily,
"Evil Queen! You favor Prince Zhennan and allow him to stay in the palace, causing chaos in the harem!"
"How dare you say that the eight concubines were not providing sexual pleasure to that boy in Jingshuo Palace last night! You are unworthy of being the queen of a country!"
"You, you!" Behind the pearl curtain, the queen slapped the phoenix couch, making a 'bang bang' sound. Then, she staggered to her feet and shouted angrily,
"Retreat from the court! Retreat from the court!"
"No!" At this time, Lu Chongyun's face changed and he shouted loudly.
The purpose of today's morning court session is to finalize Li Mu's appointment as regent and reveal that the crown prince is a descendant of the Wang family of the previous dynasty.
Only in this way can one legitimately grasp the military power for justice.
Now, the two hundred thousand troops of the former dynasty are waiting covetously outside the city.
The queen seemed to be protecting Li Mu, but in fact she was muddying the situation.
Lu Chongyun clenched his fists and made a decision in his heart. No matter what, he could not let this morning court session end in vain.
"In fact, Your Majesty did not..."
However, before he finished speaking, a familiar chuckle came from the dragon throne.
“It really is like a vegetable market.”
"Why, who did I sleep with last night? Do I need your approval?"
