Chapter 455: 466

Baili Junyi was beating the dogs in Suicheng, and another wave of darkness surged in Kyoto.

From the abolition of Prince Baili Jin Yi has been rescued after ten days, finally waited to trace the results. Baili Jin Yi was Qingtian Pavilion and Biyun Pavilion’s remnants of the take away, directly escorted to the Great Yue country, and also let a person to pass the message, said everything is Shen Ningshua forced Shen Ningshua, Baili Jun Yi and Shen Ningshua described as destroying the orthodoxy of the rebellious and traitorous, and threatened that, if Baili Jun Yi does not abolish the Shen Ningshua, then he will rely on the Great Yue country, with the help of the Great Yue country’s power to reclaim the throne!

When this statement came out, the whole court was in an uproar. The third and fourth princes took a joint stance, saying that Shen Ninghua had persecuted them, put them and many courtiers under house arrest, and went on a rampage to eliminate dissidents in the courtroom. Although they did not explicitly support the abolition of the queen, they secretly sent their staff to run around and contact officials.

To add insult to injury, the Great Yue Kingdom once again declared that as long as Baili Junyi abolished Shen Ninghua, they would immediately withdraw their troops. If not, they would definitely press in with a large army to help Baili Junyi reclaim the throne and continue the orthodoxy!

The topic of the abolition of the queen has once again become the center of attention of the people talking about, Shen Ninghua is now extraordinarily embarrassed, even some of the newly promoted officials are silent, do not know how to choose at this time.

Hongling helped Shen Ninghua put on the empress’s attire with an extraordinarily grave expression, “Empress Mother, why don’t we dismiss the court today?”

Shen Ninghua straightened her cuffs, her white wrists holding up the wide cuffs, looking more and more slender and frail, “Why do you want to strike the court?”

“Your Majesty … you are now in the court, I’m afraid that the courtiers will rise up and attack you …”

“I am the Queen, and even if I am attacked, I will carry out my duties as Queen.”

“But Mother, you can hold off for a while, for now …”

Shen Ninghua inserted the nine-tailed phoenix hairpin into her hair and sighed slightly, ”Hongling, you don’t understand, if I didn’t have this throne, I could have retreated, but now I’m already the Empress, so I can’t give up an inch of ground! Do you think that Baili Jin Yi and those people in the Great Yue Country, what they really want to abolish is me? No, what they want to destroy is the path of the emperor under Baili Junyi’s feet, the future of the Great An Kingdom, Junyi is fighting for his life on the battlefield, I can’t let his back be exposed and unguarded!”

Hongling froze, shocked, looking at Shen Ninghua in front of her, as if she saw a phoenix standing proudly on its own, even if the flames around her burned her body, she was still able to withstand the pain and reborn from the fire. One day, those who dared to light a fire around her would be slaughtered cleanly by the might of the phoenix!

“Your Highness, the slave girl will order the catering room to prepare the dishes and wait for Your Highness to return.”

Shen Ninghua turned her head and smiled faintly, no fear in her calm, wave-free eyes, “Good!”

Before the beginning of the court, the Chengqian Hall has been fried into a pot of porridge. Newly promoted officials and old-school officials argued red in the face, the sound of the clamor almost overturned the roof.

“The Empress has arrived!”

There was a silence in the hall as the courtiers saluted.

Shen Ninghua sat on top of the throne, his eyes calmly swept over all the officials, “All the love ministers leveled off. Just now I heard you guys making such a lively noise, what are you arguing about?”

The officials got up, looked at me, looked at you, and surprisingly no one was the first to step forward and speak.

Shen Ninghua slightly hooked up the corner of her lips, “This is strange, just now it was so lively, this palace thought that something big must have happened to make the hundred officials argue, now how come when you ask, no one makes a sound?” No one responded, she was not in a hurry, sitting calmly on the dragon chair, looking at the officials below exchanging glances.

Sitting on the high dragon chair, she realized the helplessness of being an emperor, she can see the face of the officials clearly above, but after seeing clearly is not the first time to dispose of, but patience. The rule of the big country as cooking small food, need extra fine also need a variety of seasoning balance, even if the emperor, also can not just based on the heart will be disposed of courtiers.

Finally, someone couldn’t hold back and stood out, “Empress Dowager, many great events have occurred in recent days, and you think you know about them.”

“There are quite a few things that this palace knows about, I don’t know which one Lord Qin is talking about?”

Another official stood out, “Your Highness, why do you pretend to be confused, now the people are in a state of panic, there are already signs of civil unrest, and the Abolitionist Prince has fled from the Zongrenfu and has defected to the State of Great Yue. The Great Yue State has also stated that if Your Highness continues to remain unaware, she will be pressed by a large army. My Great An Kingdom now has internal worries and should not add more powerful enemies from outside.”

“Empress Mother, as the Empress, the mother of a nation, you shouldn’t only consider your selfishness, you should comply with public opinion and abolish your own throne to give an explanation to all the people in the world!”

When these words came out, it was like water falling into hot oil, stirring up a wave of sound.

“Nonsense, easily abolishing the queen is shaking the foundation of the country, you are plotting treason!”

“How can the Empress speak lightly of abolition, the Great Yue State is ambitious, can’t you and others see that?”

Officials from both factions fired into a frenzy, going back and forth at each other’s throats.

Qin Feng, the Minister of Ceremonies who spoke first, fiercely shouted, “Empress Mother, aren’t you going to say a few words?” There was a silence above the Golden Hall, and then all the courtiers looked upward at Shen Ninghua.

Shen Ninghua’s eyes swept over and landed squarely on Qin Feng, but only stayed for a moment before turning away, “I just heard someone say that they want this palace to abolish its own throne?”

Qin Feng, who had been ignored, immediately spoke up, “Not bad, this is also the opinion discussed by the micro-minister and the others.”

“Who are the results … that you and others have discussed? How many people agree with Lord Qin’s viewpoint and demand that this palace abolish its own empress?”

Qin Feng immediately gestured to the officials behind him, and quite a few of them hesitated for a moment before finally standing behind Qin Feng, “The micro-minister agrees with Lord Qin’s viewpoint.”

“The microcosm agrees.”

Where sixteen people in a row stood out, Qin Feng looked up, “Empress Dowager, you see?”

Shen Ninghua had always looked calm, and by now she didn’t see the slightest ripple, “You summarize, what is the reason for letting this palace abolish the throne of the queen herself?”

Qin Feng immediately said, “Empress Mother, you are the mother of a country, you should stand up for the people at this time.”

Shen Ninghua let out a cold laugh, “Considering for the ten thousand people, or considering for you seventeen people, how is it that this palace doesn’t know that just a dozen or so officials with insubordination in their hearts dare to represent the ten thousand people of the world?”

Qin Feng gave a beat: ”Your Highness, it is an indisputable fact that there are many grievances among the people, and it is not possible for you to deny it. The Great Yue State has once again stated that as long as your throne is abolished, it will be willing to retreat. The two countries are at war, the people are in distress, would you rather watch the people lose their lives in the war, but also resolutely occupy the position of Empress?”

“How dare you!” Shen Ninghua got up, her eyes filled with frost, “Qin Feng, it’s a shame that you’re still the Minister of Rites! You claimed that this palace is the mother of a country, and with this realization, you still dare to speak out against this palace, is this your way of being a minister?”

“Microcosm …”

“Shut up! This Palace has not finished speaking, you interrupt, is this the Confucian rites you have learned? As an official of the Ministry of Rites, you should be the one who knows the history and understands the rites and teachings, but now the Palace sees that you are confusing the public with your demonic words, intending to disorganize the heart of our nation!”

Shen Ninghua’s words echoed above the golden palace as if they were golden voices, she looked at Qin Feng, but it was as if she was looking at a mass of dead things:

“You keep saying how the Great Vietnam is, how, have you forgotten that it is the land of Da An that you step on, it is the people of Da An that feed you, and it is the emperor of Da An that enables you to make a name for yourself! Da Yue Guo took advantage of my Da An’s natural disaster to raise troops to violate the border, this is an invasion of my Da An Guo, is an insult to my Da An’s people, a country’s courtiers, what you want is not to be loyal to the country and fight fervently, but to be resigned and bloodless, and even threatened to let the Palace abolish the throne of the queen, are you in the end my Da An’s courtiers, or are you a spy sent by the Da Yue Guo?”

Qin Feng’s face was white, the officials who followed him began to falter, they more or less understand in their hearts, even if the abolition of Shen Ninghua’s throne, the Great Yue State will not retreat …

“Empress Dowager, we are doing this for the sake of all the people in the world, we don’t want to see the people suffer from the ravages of war, we are not selling out our country!”

“Do not want to see the people suffer? What a grand excuse, if you really have the heart for the people, then when the Emperor’s imperial expedition was underway, you should have invited yourself to accompany the army to the border, instead of doing what you’re doing now, taking advantage of the Emperor’s absence and forcing the Palace to abrogate its own throne.”

Shen Ninghua unmercifully exposed his cover-up:

“As the ancients say, the king insults the subject. This Palace is the Empress of Da An Kingdom, the married wife of the Emperor, and the biological mother of two imperial sons and a princess; for Da Yue Kingdom to dare to threaten to abolish this Palace is to dishonor the Emperor and the royal family of Da An Kingdom. Aren’t you and the others claiming to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country? At this time, when the monarch is being insulted, why don’t you and the others fight in blood and defend the monarch’s majesty?”

Shen Ninghua’s voice grew colder and colder, and in the end, it was like an iceberg, suppressing Qin Feng and the others to death!

Spokesman Zhu Zheng stood out, kneeling and saluting at Shen Ninghua, “Empress Mother has a point, the king insults the ministers and dies, I will punish these treacherous ministers on behalf of Empress Mother!” Saying this, he directly got up and walked to Qin Feng in large strides, raised his arm and struck Qin Feng’s face fiercely.

“This first slap, hitting you for harboring disloyalty and taking advantage of the Emperor’s absence to speak out and force the State Mother! Slap!”

“This second slap, hitting you for harboring an insubordinate heart, uniting officials to form a private party, and forcing the Empress to abrogate her own throne! Slap!”

“This third slap, strikes you for harboring an unkind heart, disregarding the deaths and lives of the people, and thinking only of your own peace! Slap!”

“This fourth slap is to beat you for harboring an unrighteous heart, claiming to help the Great Yue Kingdom, and being bloodless! Slap!”

“This fifth slap, hit you … hit you … slap! Hit it!”

Qin Feng was knocked out of his head by Zhu Zheng’s slap, and only reacted after a while, glaring at Zhu Zheng with his eyes wide open, “Old piker, how dare you lay your hands on this official?”

“Didn’t you hear what the old man said, I’m teaching you a lesson for the Empress!”

“I’m not at fault, what gives you the right to hit me with your hands?” Qin Feng glared at Shen Ninghua with bloodshot eyes and cried out in a loud voice, “Your Highness, listen to the voice of the people, look at the hearts of the people, you can’t abandon the people for your own selfish desires!”

Shen Ninghua looked at him, as if looking down on a clown, “The Palace into the prescription, to solve the plague, to save the people’s lives; the Palace to open the Huajun medicine line, relief of the people, the people’s illness; the Palace to supervise the government, open the grain, to solve the people’s hunger and hardship! Up is not ashamed of the sky, down is not ashamed of the people, in the end, who is for their own selfish desires, abandon the people in disregard?”
