Chapter 395 Ask Father For Permission

Just because the tribute has official status, unless it is a crime, otherwise, the emperor cannot directly dismiss a tribute for no reason, at most he will be the last one.

As for Jinshi, he can also wait for the appointment of officials, no matter how low he is, he is still a magistrate of a small county.

Therefore, the official uniforms of tribute and non-commissioned officers are all official uniforms from the seventh rank.

A plain red robe with no decorations on it, and a black official hat on his head, which is also plain.

But such a crude attire, wearing it on different people, gave people completely different feelings.

Some people are out of shape and not tall and straight. Wearing this kind of clothes, they look uglier than usual. Not everyone can control this style.

Su Ziji, a young man with a tall and straight figure, put on this outfit, and his face was set off like a crown jade, with a heroic appearance and a very energetic appearance.

Coupled with the mediocre appearance, it stands out from the crowd, making it impossible to imagine at first sight.

After the meeting and the roll call are over, and a Jinshi is awarded, another official robe will be given at that time. Wearing it may even hurt people's eyes.

At this moment, many people in the crowd couldn't help but feel sour, especially when they thought of Su Ziji's arrogance and left without talking to him, they felt that Su Ziji and them were from two worlds.

Su Ziji's five senses are keen, and he can naturally feel some jealous, envious, or even purely disgusting eyes falling on him.

But at the moment, he was preoccupied. When he woke up, he found that one fox had turned into two foxes, wrestling into a ball, and his paws were crackling. He was usually interested in asking, but today he had no time and thought, and only ordered Go up to the court in one sentence.

But the difference between himself and the dragon girl made him worry about it.

"Let's not talk about Panlong Lake, it's too conspicuous. It is said that when I woke up, there was a bright glow over the capital city, which seemed to be in the shape of a dragon."

"What is this omen?"

"No matter what the omen is, it is really against my original intention."

Su Ziji was thinking about what happened last night, how could he have time to pay attention to these people?
The morning glow gradually increased, and it was dawn, and as the officials of Honglu Temple entered the palace again, Su Ziji thought to himself: "According to the time of the court, it should be time to go to the court at this time, but looking at the situation, it seems like It was a delay, could it be related to the vision last night?"

"In the capital city, there seem to be some eyes staring around all the time. There is really a vision. The Taoists who serve the emperor may not be unaware of it."

"You shouldn't suspect me, right?"

As he was thinking like this, there were three faint sounds of quiet whips in the hall, and then the sound of drums and music began softly, and there was a thin and sharp voice: "The emperor is here!"

The official of the Ministry of Rites waved his hand. This has been rehearsed repeatedly, so the Gongshi didn't say a word, but quickly knelt down and shouted: "Long live, long live, long live!"

The emperor came in amidst the music, paused for a while at the entrance of the hall, glanced at the kneeling Gongshi below, and went up to the throne in the hall without saying a word.

Huo Wuyong's words still echoed in the emperor's mind as he signaled the minister to report something.

Maybe in the eyes of some people, he relied more on Liu Zhan, but in fact, judging from the fact that he left Huo Wuyong to walk in the palace and make alchemy for him, it can be seen that the emperor actually trusted Huo Wuyong more.

In other words, no matter how strong Huo Wuyong is, he has no sect power and is a lone minister, and no matter how loyal Liu Zhan is, there is Yin Guan faction behind him, which determines the difference.

"Since the dragon girl has become the Dragon Lord, although she can kill her, it will take a lot of trouble. If the demon clan uses it in the process and manipulates the dragon girl to attack Da Zheng, it will be active instead of passive. "

"The canonization of a dragon girl is nothing more than a dragon girl and a young dragon. Could it be possible to accept the canonization, and still be able to obey? Certainly not, then it will be Da Zheng's own god."

"And with the control of the Wanyao Order, the demon clan who were still making trouble before, if they make trouble again, their own dragon girl will be punished by the Wanyao Order, and all the court can do is to issue an imperial edict to the dragon girl."

"It doesn't take a single soldier to solve the troubles of the Yaozu for these years."

"Even if Dragon Girl becomes stronger in the future, it will be hundreds of years later, so it's not my problem."

Thinking back, the emperor felt that these words actually moved him even more.

He was no longer young, although he became more and more suspicious of the kings and grasped more and more tightly about the affairs of the capital, but he was actually a little tired to let him start another war against the alien race.

What he is even doing is slowly gathering the military power in his hands instead of decentralizing it, so that the kings can take advantage of this opportunity to decentralize power from him.

"However, there is always hesitation in my heart, as if there is some force stopping me."

"Masters, do you have anything to report?"

Thinking about this in his heart, he listened to the reports of the courtiers in the palace. They were all small things. The emperor often heard them arguing in the palace, and he was already used to it, so he didn't need to listen carefully to know what they were doing. for what.

The water was clear and there was no fish. The emperor usually had a good attitude towards these courtiers who did not stand in line to seize the heir apparent. Even the three adult princes who were able to go to the court to listen to the government, the emperor treated them equally, and did not scold them in public. Save some face.

But this seems to have given some people a wrong signal. After the emperor's questioning, King Qi directly stepped out.

The emperor, who thought that the tributes would come in to end the court meeting, frowned slightly and looked over.

"What's the matter with you?"

King Qi was below, lowering his head slightly, and said respectfully: "Father, my son has something to ask for permission from Father!"

"Although the flood is calm now, there are locust plagues in the counties again. I usually have nothing to do. Seeing that you are working hard for the state affairs, but I can't help you. I feel really guilty, so I want to invite you out of Beijing to inspect the locust plague. , and ask the father to agree!"

As soon as these words came out, not only the officials present were stunned, but even the emperor was shocked.

The emperor immediately became suspicious and grabbed the armrest of the throne tightly, but a smile appeared on his face: "Oh, King Qi's heart is commendable, all ministers, listen to me, as a minister, it is natural for him to have such a A little uneasy—but where do you want to go?"

This expression actually paralyzed King Qi.

He was apprehensive at first, but seeing that his father was not furious, he bit the bullet and said, "I heard a lot of locusts in Haixi Province, Guangling Province, and Hanfu Province, and I want to go and see them."

The names of these three provinces include Guangling Province.

If it is normal, the emperor is the most sensitive about the matter of the dragon girl.

Panlong Lake is in the territory of Guangling Province, and Xiaolong is there. When the emperor heard this, how could he not understand the son in the palace, what is the picture?
The three adult sons all have ambitions, and the emperor has long taken this into consideration. As long as they don't stretch their claws too far and a balance can be reached, the emperor will let them go.

But he couldn't bear the fact that someone among his sons could have such a quick source of news.

When he heard the word "Guangling Province", his heart shrank, and he thought to himself: "I only found out about the Dragon Girl more than an hour ago, why did this son also know about it? Alchemist? Or collusion with the monster race so deep?"
