Chapter 262 Ji Chang

"Your Majesty, did the Marquis of Xibo specify when he would arrive?"

Seeing Li Qing put down the memorial, a hint of doubt flashed in Shang Rong's eyes, then he stepped out and asked with a bow.

Li Qing immediately smiled and said, "Just let Shang Xiang see for himself."

After saying that, he waved his hand.

Wang Youzhi quickly picked up the memorial and handed it to Shang Rong.

Shang Rong opened the memorial and read it quickly.

His expression gradually became solemn, and then filled with anger!

"Asshole!"

Suddenly, Shang Rong shouted angrily and threw the memorial to the ground.

Li Qing smiled calmly and said nothing.

The other officials were shocked!

But Shang Rong shouted, "What a Ji Chang! He has absolutely no respect for his majesty!"

"this……"

For a moment, the officials looked at each other.

Only Bigan showed a hint of sneer and continued, "Your Majesty's actions are your Majesty's business. I, Ji Chang, am a minister. Even if it is my duty to advise and remonstrate, I cannot speak so arrogantly. He is actually scolding Your Majesty as if he were an elder. He really doesn't know what is good for you!"

Shang Rong sneered, "Your Majesty was just having fun for a while, and he's already recovered. How could Ji Chang not know this? Now that he's personally heading to Chaoge, is he perhaps trying to establish his authority?"

Bigan smiled and bowed to Li Qing, saying, "Your Majesty, I believe that Your Majesty should reject the Marquis of Xibo's proposal and order him to turn back halfway!"

"That's right! The two hundred princes of Xiqi have long disobeyed the king's orders! Now that Ji Chang has come, I'm afraid he has some ulterior motive!"

Although You Ping was old, he was not confused. After listening to Shang Rong and Bigan, he had a general understanding of Ji Chang's memorial. He immediately stood up and shouted loudly.

Seeing several old ministers speaking like this, many ministers spoke up at once, advising Li Qing to directly reject Ji Chang's move.

Why did he dare to leave his post and come to Chaoge?!

Li Qing looked at the actions of the ministers below and wondered in his heart whether he should just let Ji Chang go back?

But what if he insists on not returning?

Li Qing frowned slightly, but saw that Shen Gongbao was calm and composed. He didn't speak or move, but just stood there with his eyes closed, resting.

Li Qing smiled for a moment and said, "My dear Lord Shen, what are your thoughts?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Gongbao opened his eyes, walked out holding a jade sceptre, and said with a smile, "I think it would be better to have Xibo Hou Jichang come to Chaoge so that we can listen carefully to what he has to say. This will prevent your Majesty from refuting him and then him spreading rumors. Your Majesty will feel guilty and dare not see him."

Suddenly, the officials around fell silent.

Shang Rong and Bigan also nodded slightly.

What Shen Gongbao said is quite right!

This time, Ji Chang came with the suspicion of accusing someone of something. If he was really rejected halfway, then the king's brutal martial arts and murder of ministers would be proven.

In fact, the king only killed Mei Bo and Doctor Mei.

Of course, killing Doctor Mei was definitely wrong, but it wasn't a major mistake. He continued to kill key figures within the court. It was perfectly normal for the emperor to kill a minister in a fit of rage! Even if the Duke of Xibo, as a minister, had some complaints, he could have expressed them in a memorial, but he absolutely could not disregard the emperor's authority, leave his post, and come to Chaoge to make a remonstration!

When Li Qing saw that everyone was silent, he obviously did not deny what Shen Gongbao said.

He naturally smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, then let Ji Chang come over. I want to hear how he wants to scold me!"

After saying this, Li Qing stood up and said, "Dismiss the court."

“Retreat!!”

Wang Youzhi's voice resounded throughout the hall again.

Let’s talk about the West Gate Avenue of Chaoge Royal City, and follow the main line of the avenue all the way west!

It is about 30 million miles.

On the road, I saw a team of carriages and horses with more than 500 people coming forward quickly.

This pair of chariots and horses are all extraordinary. The soldiers' cultivation level is at least in the late stage of True Immortal, and there are more than a hundred Golden Immortals and several Daluo Golden Immortals protecting them.

In the center was a carriage, magnificently decorated with gold and jade, dark yellow in color, and pulled by six pure white dragon horses at an incredible speed.

The Yin family regarded black and red as noble.

However, the Ji family regarded Xuanhuang as noble.

The carriage was seen half-floating in the air, moving forward along the road. It had already left Xiqi for hundreds of miles, passed no less than hundreds of county towns, and was getting closer and closer to the royal city of Chaoge.

"Wuji, where are we?"

After walking for another half day, a deep voice suddenly came from inside the carriage and asked.

The soldier driving the car quickly replied, "My Lord, we are on our way to Qinglong Pass. After passing Qinglong Pass, we will reach Chaoge City in another six million miles!"

"Stop, Rong Gu, take a rest."

When the soldier said this in the carriage, there was a pause, and then another voice was heard.

Wu Ji nodded quickly and said, "Yes."

After saying that, he pulled the reins, and the six ancient and strange dragon horses stopped with a hiss.

At the same time, hundreds of soldiers also stopped.

I saw that this place was a mountain range, and the scenery around it was very beautiful.

The large group of people stood aside for a while, and dozens of soldiers quickly stepped out from the hundreds of soldiers and began to cut down trees and level the grass. In just a few breaths, they cleared a huge open space.

Then silks and satins were spread on the ground, the table was quickly set up, and all kinds of delicacies came out like clouds.

An old man in a luxurious yellow robe slowly stepped down from the carriage.

When he walked to the open space, a golden land with singing birds and dancing swallows appeared!

"My Lord, please sit down."

Wu Ji followed Ji Chang to the golden ground that had already been prepared, and spoke to Ji Chang respectfully.

The old man with an old face but a very good look, white hair and a youthful face, wearing a luxurious yellow robe, is the leader of Xiqi, Duke Xibo, Ji Chang.

Ji Chang nodded calmly, then sat down cross-legged, watching the dance of five or six beautiful women in front of him, listening to the silky drum music, feeling the cool breeze around him, nodded with satisfaction, and began to have breakfast.

Just when he had just finished his meal, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the valley!

The gale was extremely violent, and at the same time, the sky and the earth quickly darkened. Accompanied by a thunder, bursts of heavy rain began to fall!

"Huh? What's going on?"

This strange phenomenon of heaven and earth could not move Ji Chang. He just chewed a piece of delicious venison lightly, swallowed it slowly, and then asked calmly.

The cultivators had already set up restrictions on everything around, and no wind, rain, thunder or lightning could enter.

Upon hearing this, Wu Ji immediately shook his head and said, "I don't know either. It's just that there's a lot of miasma here, and with the rising earth energy, it's normal for it to rain suddenly. I think this violent storm will soon pass. My Lord, just enjoy your meal in peace."

Ji Chang nodded slightly and was about to continue eating, but he suddenly had an idea and reached out to take out six small jade tablets from his arms. He shook his hand, and the jade tablets fell on the table with shining light.

Ji Chang looked down, his eyebrows raised, and then he smiled and said, "I see."
