After being told by Yin Fufeng, the expression on the face of the person who had suspected Hu Xiao earlier changed again and again, to the point that she seemed to be angry from embarrassment.
"What is the Master Yin saying? Why is Master Yin so sure that the Empress will not do such a thing? "
"Hehe, why should I? Based on the fact that I, Yin Fufeng, am from the royal family! The royals would rather die than do such a thing that would shame their ancestors! "Even if he’s a spy, it’s impossible!"
Very few people knew that Yin Fufeng was Qin Shuo’s cousin, all of the things that he had done to achieve this status were his own, but now that Yin Fufeng had spoken, they were all stunned.
Even Hu Xiao, who was standing outside the hall, was extremely surprised. So it turned out that Yin Fufeng was someone from the imperial family, no wonder he had such a clear understanding of imperial etiquette, but it was rare for Yin Fufeng to have such a good relationship with Qin Shuo.
"You!"
Although Yin Fufeng was normally easy to get along with, as long as he got angry, he would definitely be an extremely difficult person to mess with, and Yin Fufeng right now was the same.
"But Master Yin cannot rely on our East Court’s imperial family to determine that all imperial families are like that."
Seeing this, one of them whispered.
"Heh, yes, I, Yin Fufeng cannot be so confident, but don’t forget, the current Queen is my imperial cousin, so I naturally have more time than you all. I believe in Empress!"
Qin Shuo kept on looking at the people quarreling, his expression did not change at all, as though he did not care at all. When Hu Xiao saw this, she could not take it anymore, and just as she was about to struggle free and run in, he heard Qin Shuo say something.
"Enough, do you think this is a market? Every single day, after many quarrels, the empress would be discussing daily matters of meddling in the affairs of the imperial court. Since that’s the case, we would like to ask, everyone present, who is capable of solving the problem regarding Sui City? "
The people who were still blabbering away just now, upon seeing Qin Shuo’s words, immediately became quiet like an ostrich. Even the few people who were talking earlier did not dare say anything more.
After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one replied, Qin Shuo became even angrier, he threw the imperial report in his hand onto the ground, scaring all the ministers into kneeling.
"What is it? As long as I ask you all to be dumb? Deaf? Didn’t know the answer? We ask you, if the Empress had not interfered with the affairs of the empire, who among you would be able to resolve the current situation of the people affected by the Sui City? "
In the end, no one answered, so Qin Shuo said without feeling sad or happy.
"Since you all do not dare to say it, then I shall speak it out for you all. There is only the empress!" The empress is the only one with the ability to solve the problem, how can you think of such a thing? Can you drill under the tree? Can you find underground water flow? It would be better if I kept you all as empress all day, but you still have the face to tell me that empress interferes with the imperial government? I will tell you today, all the political affairs of the empress are permitted by me! In the future, if you have the ability, use it to speak! If you don’t have the ability, then shut up for Zhen! "
Everyday, the imperial court would argue over this matter for an entire day, but Qin Shuo could not be bothered with them, he only watched quietly as the people made a ruckus, and it seemed that he was being too indulgent.
He didn’t know how to get ahead. He just stared at his imperial concubine every day and thought that his concubine had passed through again. So what if the empress?
However, these people still felt that they were extraordinary.
He had never seen Qin Shuo get so angry, even taking back his foot that was just about to step into the palace hall.
So it turns out that every single day was like this for Qin Shuo, and he had actually misunderstood his.
The court officials did not dare say anything. Indeed, what Qin Shuo said was right, they did not have the ability to think of so many methods, like the Queen. But it was precisely because of this that they were especially wary of Hu Xiao’s intelligence.
"Since you have no other choice, then do your own thing. Don’t idle around like you have nothing to do all day."
Qin Shuo moistened his throat, as he spoke slowly, as if he had returned to his previous appearance.
He wanted to continue speaking, but when he suddenly saw the girl standing at the door, he became extremely worried.
"Empress? "You’re here?"
Looking at Hu Xiao’s majestic appearance a moment ago, she had actually softened in an instant, as if she had become a completely different person.
"Chenqie pays her respects to Your Majesty."
In the entire palace, only Qin Shuo was slightly older than him, furthermore, the current Hu Xiao looked down on these people and did not want to give them any face.
"Come on, why is the empress here?"
She could not help but feel a little guilty, and was unsure if Hu Xiao had heard the words he said just now.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, chenqie heard that all the ministers in the imperial court were saying that chenqie was interfering in the political affairs of the imperial court. She was extremely curious, so she came to take a look."
Hu Xiao’s face was unperturbed, it was obvious that the court officials from just now were getting more and more embarrassed, the protagonist that was just talking about had actually appeared in the palace to confront them, no matter how one looked at it, it was extremely awkward.
"Hehe, I have already dealt with it. Queen, there is no need to worry."
Looking at Hu Xiao’s expression, Qin Shuo’s anger for the previous moment couldn’t help but lessen. Originally, she had wanted to look for Hu Xiao after going down the hall, but she didn’t think that Hu Xiao had already come by herself.
"Chenqie thanks Your Majesty very much. Chenqie naturally heard what Your Majesty said just now. However, chenqie feels that it’s best if chenqie says a few words. After all, chenqie feels that His Majesty’s official is very against me."
Hu Xiao’s faint smile caused Yin Fufeng and Zhao Qiyan to be startled, they both slowly retreated, as though they were afraid of being targeted by Hu Xiao. Qin Shuo nodded, and Hu Xiao turned to look at the various officials.
"Your Majesty was right just now, the way to alleviate the Sui City right now is indeed something that I have thought of. If someone feels that my plan is not very convincing, then please inform your plan to your majesty, and let your majesty decide whose plan it is. Also, when I was outside the door earlier, did I hear that some of you questioned my belonging and the matters that entered your hearts?"
He turned his gaze over the crowd one by one, memorizing those who had just spoken before and finally landing their gazes on the person who suspected that he was a spy.
"This Master Zhao of the Priest Division, right?" Just now, you were doubting me? "
Hu Xiao slowly walked to the front of the man and asked.
After all, he had only been speaking on the spur of the moment just now, and he had not expected that he would be hated by Prime Minister Yin Fufeng because of this. Even the Empress had heard of it, and wished to slap him on the spot.
"Please spare my life Empress, this official has nothing to say, please forgive me."
