The heroine takes revenge on me, I am a sickly girl, I conquer the country and enjoy happiness
Chapter 63: Your Majesty, I warn all my colleagues that they want to eat up my family
The atmosphere in the court today is very solemn.
As usual, Emperor Mingde sat at the top wearing a mask, listening quietly to the passionate words and speeches of his ministers.
As the New Year approaches, foreign envoys are already on their way to Fengdu.
The Qiang State sent its crown prince to propose marriage, and at the same time, General Sikong Lin led an army of 100,000 to station on the other side of the Chi River.
Someone suggested that Duke Zhenguo Lu Jianzhang should come forward and teach them a lesson before welcoming the prince of Qiang to the capital. After all, the Lu family's elite Xuanqi Army and the Qiang Kingdom are old rivals.
The civil officials, especially those under the Prime Minister, strongly opposed this. Wouldn't this give Duke Lu an opportunity to command his own troops?
They went to great lengths to get Lu Jianzhang to stay in Fengdu to take care of his wife and children, and to reduce his ties with the army.
If we let him go again, wouldn't all our previous plans be in vain?
Lu Jianzhang has always been wary of the phrase "too successful to be a threat to the ruler".
Otherwise, his father and two elder brothers would not have died so suddenly, forcing him, a guy who originally planned to be a playboy all his life, to shoulder the heavy burden of the Zhenguo Mansion.
Thinking back to the past, in order to pursue his wife, he shamelessly ran to the Qin family to marry into the family!
As a result, the family encountered a huge change. The "little son-in-law" turned into a duke. When his wife was struggling to be pregnant, he had to make her worry about his safety!
Lu Jianzhang's face changed drastically, and he slid down to his knees under the high platform of Emperor Mingde, crying bitterly and asking:
"Your Majesty, can you please have some compassion for me?
My beloved little daughter has just been rescued from the hands of death, and she is still in danger. My wife has not left her bed for several days because of my little daughter's matter..."
Then he wiped his tears and shouted at his colleagues with contempt and resentment, especially those civil servants who belittled him to death.
"Guys like you who have many wives and concubines and still go out to flirt with other women! You don't understand what love and family are!
You only know about beautiful arms, sandalwood lips, slender waist, and the shaking mandarin duck quilt..."
"shut up!"
"presumptuous!"
"Lu Jianzhang, you have no shame!"
"Duke Lu, you are disrespectful!"
"Mr. Lu, how dare you say such filthy words in front of His Majesty?"
A group of officials who boasted of their romanticism, with red flags flying at home and colorful flags fluttering outside, had their defenses broken.
Damn it! Damn it! As expected, the generals are all vulgar people, and they have no sense of propriety when they speak!
Just when all the officials were attacking Lu Jianzhang, this iron-blooded nobleman who had walked out of the battlefield actually showed an expression of aggrieved.
"Your Majesty, please help me!"
He turned around and hugged Emperor Mingde's thighs, beating his chest in grief and crying until he almost fainted.
By the way, I filed a complaint:
"They said they wanted to eat up all of my family members!
They completely regarded the Zhenguogong Mansion bestowed by His Majesty and the 250,000 Xuanqi troops at Qingping Pass as their own possessions! They are so ruthless!
Woohoo, I deserve to die. I served in the same court for many years but failed to notice their rebellious intentions! I deserve to die for not giving birth to a son to stop their ambitions, which led to the discord between Your Majesty and his subjects!
Your Majesty, I wish you all the best!!!"
Duke Lu kowtowed and performed a great ceremony, setting the tone for the whole event.
Lu Jianzhang, you really deserve to die! With just a few words from you, we have become the rebels!
An eight-foot-tall, rough old man crying and pretending to be aggrieved?
Don't you feel ashamed, you green tea bitch!
No wonder he was able to win over the only daughter of the richest family, Qin!
The faces of the officials who were targeted and implicated turned from red to blue, and from blue to purple. They felt like gnashing their teeth and wished they could just step forward and tear the culprit into pieces!
The remaining officials also looked puzzled. He was obviously a military general, so why was his mouth so smooth?
"All right!"
Emperor Mingde shouted in a low voice and looked at everyone for a long time.
He did not show any dissatisfaction with Lu Jianzhang's crying, and even asked the eunuch in front of the palace to help the man up personally.
"Duke Lu, you have worked hard and made great contributions! The end of the year is approaching, and His Majesty will not let you be separated from your wife and daughter, so you can rest assured!"
"Your Majesty, I thank you for your grace..."
Lu Jianzhang was so moved that he blew a bubble of snot.
Emperor Mingde's brows twitched, and he selected the two civil servants who were most excited, and asked them to accompany General Mingwei Cao Guangyao to lead the troops to intimidate the Qiang army.
Emperor Mingde also asked the eunuchs around him to go to the storehouse to pick out some treasures and rare medicinal materials, and take them home after Lu Jianzhang left the court as a token of sympathy.
Everyone was secretly jealous.
How come His Majesty not only didn't punish him for making such a fuss, but also rewarded him?
It's obvious that His Majesty is moody!
Some clever ones pondered secretly, and then suddenly realized, how come what Duke Lu said was exactly the same as when he confessed his feelings to a girl?
Your Majesty's Zhenguogong Mansion, Your Majesty's Xuanqi Army, Your Majesty's Zhenguogong...
Plus crying to show weakness.
Wow, it seems they have found the trick to rising!
"His Majesty--"
Some officials cried and slid to their knees, imitating Lu Jianzhang.
Emperor Mingde said mercilessly:
"You are disrespectful in front of the palace. Take him away!"
Resentful official: Damn it, do you have to be so hypocritical?
All the ministers: Lu Jianzhang is indeed a treacherous villain!
After the interlude, other matters were discussed.
The snow disaster in the north was more serious than expected. Not only Youzhou and Jiezhou, which had sent messages for help, were hit by the blizzard, but also further north.
Mocheng, a city built between mountains and located in the mineral producing area of Qi State, was almost buried by the sudden heavy snow, leaving only a few survivors.
The officials who were ordered to go to provide disaster relief were suffering from heavy snow and were still having trouble building shelters.
Unfortunately, Lord Du Jingdu, a man of integrity and honesty who had vowed to impeach corrupt officials throughout the country, insisted on giving up his room in order to accommodate more disaster victims, and then he caught a severe cold.
It is said that they all started talking nonsense.
The disaster relief work seems to be stuck in the middle of nowhere.
You guys are under so much stress that you are losing your hair.
Emperor Mingde ordered the fifth prince, who was fond of invention, to bring supplies and men to provide the second wave of court aid.
When the news from the court spread to the Sixth Prince's residence, Xiao Hengguang showed a relieved expression.
Fortunately, no difficult tasks fell into his hands, otherwise he would definitely not have a good time in such a harsh environment.
Of course, he would never forgive Jiang Shuo for beating him.
"what--"
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness!"
A familiar explosion was approaching rapidly from afar, and Xiao Hengguang, who was sorting out official business in the study, was startled.
When he looked up, the plump and shiny-faced concubine named Feng broke into the room.
He slammed the table with the paperweight and said angrily:
"Feng! Zhu! Zhu! Who! Let you in?"
Feng Zhuzhu ignored his roar, squeezed over, and said to him excitedly:
"Your Highness, I have something urgent to report. Why do you care about those empty formalities? I'm telling you, you have an heir!"
The loud voice was right in front of his ears, and Xiao Hengguang felt like his soul was drifting away. It took him a long time to recover.
"What did you say?"
Feng Zhuzhu ate the snacks all over her face, chewing and saying:
"You, the Sixth Prince, have a child!"
Xiao Hengguang's face gradually turned pale.
Frost!
