Reborn as a beautiful little lucky star
Chapter 240: Setting a precedent, women attend court
"Uh."
Mu Rongchen was embarrassed and subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth.
There was no foreign matter in the corners of his mouth, not even a drop of saliva.
He smiled helplessly, and suddenly realized that he had been fooled.
"You are a very leisurely king."
Mu Xueyan found it funny and continued to tease him: "There is no one in the court, just sitting on the dragon chair and sleeping."
"Cough cough."
Murongchen coughed awkwardly twice, pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry to make Miss Yan laugh at me. I don't know why it's so quiet today. Not a single official came to court."
"Is it stuck in traffic?"
Shi Bao's mind raced, and he suddenly thought of the incident that Jing Ling had caused on the street.
I guess the noise in the teahouse hasn’t ended yet.
"No way?"
This time it was Mu Xueyan's turn to feel embarrassed.
Of course she knew that Jing Ling was disguising herself as a maid and having fun in public.
There was no prevention, it was done on purpose.
It's time to let the people of Kyoto know about Miss Mu's existence.
However, no one expected it to become such a big fuss that the roads were blocked and the officials’ trips to court were affected.
It caused Murong Chen to become a lonely man and made such a big joke.

"Miss Cigarette?"
Seeing her in a daze, Murong Chen looked puzzled: "What did Shi Bao mean? Who is blocking the street?"
"Well, this is a long story..."
Mu Xueyan smiled guiltily and looked away.
"Prince Jing?"
Mu Rongchen was confused and turned to look at Mu Yunlong.
"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I didn't know."
Mu Yunlong clasped his hands together, looking apologetic.
"Yunlong really doesn't know."
Shi Bao is a clever boy, he took the initiative to help his master explain and ease the embarrassment: "It was the mirror spirit that caused the trouble, it blocked the road......"
"Oh, that's it."
When Mu Yunchen heard the whole story, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I'm sorry."
Mu Xueyan felt ashamed for Jing Ling: "I didn't expect this guy to be so troublesome. He makes such a big noise when he makes a fuss."
"nothing."
Murongchen smiled good-naturedly, without any intention of blaming others: "It's good that the officials are not coming to court. I can also give my ears a rest. I have been listening to them quarreling in the hall all day long, and my ears are about to get calluses."
"What are they arguing about?"
Mu Xueyan found it funny and asked jokingly, "Why is it that it gives His Majesty such a headache?"
"It's not about sending troops."
Mu Rongchen held his forehead helplessly: "The civil officials advocate peace talks, the military generals advocate war, each side holds its own opinion, and neither is willing to give in. There is no result after arguing back and forth."
"You are the king."
Mu Xueyan couldn't understand: "What you said is the imperial decree. You said to send troops, and they dared not listen?"
"Ugh."
Murongchen pursed his lips and smiled bitterly: "Miss Yan, you don't know that the civil officials in the court are all on the side of the prime minister and follow his lead. These people firmly resist sending troops. As long as I show the intention of sending troops, some old ministers will threaten their lives, claiming that they will write a blood letter to die, or crash into the hall and die."
"Just die, why bother with him!"
Mu Xueyan said disdainfully: "This kind of cowardly hypocrite, just give him a chance and let him crash to death."
"Oh, I want to, but I can't do that."
Murongchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If he really dies, I will be speechless and become a tyrant who insists on his own way and plunges Beichen into war and conflict again."
"Is reputation so important?"
Mu Xueyan couldn't understand: "You care so much about your reputation, just to avoid being criticized? You delay military operations and don't care about the lives of the people on the border?"
There was a moment of silence in the hall.
These words were a bit harsh, and Murongchen's smile began to crack.
The usually gentle and polite man also showed an extremely embarrassed expression.
"younger sister."
Mu Yunlong quietly tugged at his sister's sleeve, signaling her to speak as tactfully as possible so as not to embarrass others too much.
"Am I wrong?"
Mu Xueyan wanted to resolve the matter as quickly as possible, so she gave another strong answer: "Since you are sitting on this throne, you should do something. How can you ignore the safety of the people for the sake of so-called reputation?"
"......"
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere became even more depressing. Murong Chen's face turned red, and he felt ashamed.
"Your Majesty means..."
Mu Yunlong could only smile bitterly and bite the bullet to help him ease the embarrassment: "I don't want to cause war and disputes again and let the people of Beichen suffer."
"Are the people of the cities on the border that have been occupied by foreign enemies no longer citizens of Beichen?"
Mu Xueyan was full of suspicion and asked coldly, "They are living in dire straits, hoping to be rescued and no longer be slaves of a conquered country. Your Majesty, don't you care about them and are you going to abandon them?"
"younger sister."
Mu Yunlong tugged at his sister's sleeve again and kept winking at her, signaling her to stop talking.
"If your majesty cannot make up his mind."
Mu Xueyan shook off her eldest brother's hand, raging: "I will be the bad guy. Whoever dares to obstruct the army's march will be killed on the spot. I don't believe in evil. Do you think a few civil servants can turn the world upside down?"
"Sister, what do you want to do?"
Mu Yunlong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "There is no precedent for women in Beichen to attend court to discuss politics. Even if you have the ability to reach the sky, you can't mess around in the court."
“Just because it didn’t happen before, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen now.”
Mu Xueyan said domineeringly: "As long as your majesty asks, please give me a position, and I will create this precedent."
"This is no joke......"
Mu Yunlong held his forehead helplessly and wanted to persuade him again.
"can."
Mu Rongchen suddenly spoke, his eyes showing determination: "I will issue an edict right now to appoint Miss Yan as the General of the Northern Expedition and grant her the same rights as men to attend court and discuss politics."
"Okay!"
Mu Xueyan smiled and gave him an admiring look in return: "You finally got it. Why are you afraid of those people? Just wait and see how I deal with them."
"actually......."
Murongchen laughed at himself and said sincerely, "I think Miss Yan is more suitable to sit on this dragon throne than General Zhengbei."
"Forget about the Dragon Throne."
Mu Xueyan curled her lips in disdain, deliberately misinterpreting his meaning: "It's just a chair, what's so good about it? It's better to lie on the small bed."
"Miss Cigarette."
Mu Rongchen knew clearly in his heart that she did it on purpose, pretending to be ignorant even though she knew the truth.
"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it."
Mu Xueyan covered her ears to stop him from speaking any further.
"His Majesty."
Mu Yunlong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and had to speak again to ease the embarrassment for someone: "Just treat what you said just now as a joke, don't say it again in the future."
"I really think so."
Murong Chen rubbed his brows with a headache, looking very lonely: "With my talent, I shouldn't be sitting here, if it wasn't to repay Miss Yan's kindness..."
