I was kicked out of the house, and I was reborn and became the emperor

In a flash, five or six important officials followed and expressed their support for Fang Yi!

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Ba ​​and Zhou Zhengxuan's faces became gloomy, their brows were tightly furrowed, and the look they gave Fang Yi became increasingly dark and chilling.

They had never expected that Fang Yi, who had always been cowardly and incompetent, would come up with such a thought-provoking statement! It was no exaggeration to say that it was shocking.

Sitting on the magnificent dragon throne, Emperor Taining fixed his deep eyes on Fang Yi, his heart also full of ups and downs. He looked around at his ministers and spoke slowly:

"In this case, regarding the strategy for South Vietnam, we will follow the advice of Champion Hou Fangyi!"

"Don't give in. If you are forced into a desperate situation, you can only fight to the death!"

Now that the emperor has issued this order, who can raise any objection?

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Mu Junsheng and Wu Minbo smiled at each other and saluted Emperor Taining respectfully. The ministers behind them followed closely, and the sound of kneeling and bowing echoed in the hall, with great momentum.

Shangguan Ba, Zhou Zhengxuan and others had uncertain expressions on their faces. Even though they were unwilling in their hearts, they were powerless to refute the emperor's decision. They could only reluctantly follow Mu Junsheng and Wu Minbo in submission.

Not far from Fang Yi, Yang Jingyu's face was as cold as frost, and the corners of his lips trembled uncontrollably.

He clenched his teeth, his face slightly distorted with anger. In this court, he was once again defeated by Fang Yi!

Hate! How hateful!

Facing Yang Jingyu's undisguised hostility, Fang Yi pretended not to hear it. His eyes were indifferent, his breathing was even, and he gently waved his sleeves, with a leisurely and contented posture, as if all the troubles in the world had been calmed down in an instant, and fame, wealth and power were all hidden deep in his heart!

However, after all his efforts to solve such a difficult problem, the emperor did not even mention any reward. It was such a false alarm!

The southern strategy was finally settled, and the old and shrewd people in the court who had been arguing endlessly returned to silence. At this time, an old man walked out slowly, wearing an official uniform with smooth lines, fine tailoring, and almost no flaws. Every move revealed his sophistication.

"Your Majesty, yesterday the son of our dynasty's Grand Secretary Zhao invited talented people and beauties from the imperial city to Ziwei Lake to meet friends through literature. It was originally an ordinary thing, but unexpectedly, a genius emerged at the meeting!"

"This man is a man of great literary talent and his poetry is outstanding. He is praised as the 'Poet Immortal'. His talent is so extraordinary that it astounds everyone!"

"If the imperial court can bring him under its wing, it will be a great blessing for the country..."

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers whispered to each other, but Fang Yi raised his eyebrows slightly. Wasn't the so-called "poet immortal" referring to him? This old man was really talking about something else! If his identity was leaked, there would be another round of twists and turns.

"I have copied the poem of that genius into the memorial, and I respectfully invite Your Majesty to appreciate it!"

As the old man spoke, he presented a thick memorial and handed it respectfully to the front.

In the hall, the ministers had different reactions. Some of them looked unhappy, thinking that it was too much of a fuss to discuss such a small matter in the court. Zuo Yutang, the Grand Secretary of Guanwen Hall, was on par with Grand Secretary Zhao in the literary world. The literary gathering last night became a hot topic in the capital overnight. His name "Poet Immortal" was passed on by word of mouth by countless people, and even toddlers could recite a few lines.

But many people don’t know much about this “Poet Immortal”. Judging from Zuo Yutang’s tone, it seems that he highly respects him?

Even so, the genius that Zuo Yutang mentioned, even if he had extraordinary talent, the title of "Poet Immortal" is too exaggerated!

Then, everyone noticed the unusually heavy memorial in Zuo Yutang's hand.

This memorial from the Left Grand Secretary... is indeed too thick!

Wen Xi quickly took the memorial handed over by Zuo Yutang, stepped forward quickly, and placed it on the desk of Emperor Taining.

Emperor Taining seemed full of curiosity. He slowly unfolded the memorial, remained silent, and carefully read the poems in it.

Inside the hall, all civil and military officials waited in silence, concentrating on Emperor Taining's reaction.

Fang Yi could only smile bitterly in his heart. It seemed that his actions this time were too ostentatious. He needed to be more low-key in the future.

"These poems...are all written by the same person?"

After a long time, Emperor Taining suddenly put down the memorial, his tone full of disbelief.

"Absolutely true!"

Zuo Yutang responded loudly.

Emperor Taining nodded heavily, his face filled with amazement.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Great poem, great lyrics! I never thought that there would be such a brilliant person in our Great Zhou. The title of Immortal Poet is well deserved!"

"Immediately issue an order that the Zhaowen Pavilion compile these poems into a book for all officials to appreciate and study!"

As soon as Emperor Taining finished speaking, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.

What kind of poetry could win such high praise from the emperor?

Even the emperor praised him personally. Who would dare to question the title of "Poet Immortal"?

"Master Zuo, do you know who this person is?"

"If such a talent cannot be used by the court, wouldn't it be a great pity?"

Emperor Taining looked at Zuo Yutang with burning eyes, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

Zuo Yutang bowed helplessly.

"This person did not leave his name yesterday, and his true identity is still unknown, but if Your Majesty issues an order to recruit him, we will definitely be able to find him!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials in the court were extremely curious. What was the intention of this "Poet Immortal" leaving behind beautiful verses but not his name?

Not seeking fame or fortune, or just being mysterious?

"oh?"

Emperor Taining was slightly surprised, and then waved his hand and issued an order:

"Pass on my order. If this person is interested in a career in government, he can directly come to the court to accept the reward. I will not let him suffer any loss!"

"I accept your order!"

Looking at Emperor Taining's eyes that were eager for talents, Fang Yi stood not far from Zuo Yutang with an intriguing smile on his lips.

Even the emperor respectfully called him the Immortal Poet. Naturally, all the civil and military officials in the court were curious about the true identity of Fang Yi, the "Immortal Poet".

Just imagine, if one day, everyone discovered that this legendary poet was Fang Yi himself... That scene would be very interesting, needless to say! Stay humble and keep a low profile. Since they are so eager to know the answer, let them explore it slowly!

"Report——!"

At this moment, outside the hall, a guard rushed over and knelt on one knee.

"Your Majesty, the Japanese prince Kenjiro Niino requests an audience!"

After he finished speaking, all the ministers were stunned and looked at each other.

"Why would the Japanese prince take the initiative to ask for an audience without your Majesty's summons?"

Mu Junsheng and Wu Minbo exchanged glances, and a hint of solemnity appeared between their brows.

"Announce him to come in!"

Emperor Taining raised his hand leisurely, his expression changing rapidly, making it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry.

The guards retreated, and soon two figures dressed in Japanese aristocratic costumes strode in.

"Prince Kenjiro Niino of the Japanese Empire pays respect to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou!"

Kenjiro Shinno stood at the front, his voice like a bell, and only slightly bowed his hands to show his neither arrogance nor servility. However, his slightly frivolous behavior made the ministers around him look gloomy and dissatisfied.

This Japanese prince didn't even kneel down and kowtow to the emperor? How arrogant!
