Seeing that, everyone present was shocked by Minister Wen, the blood on the ground was speckled, and all of them indicated the condition of his body.
"We’re finished, Minister Wen is finished, Minister Wen is so angry." Zhao Qiyan shouted loudly. He moved closer to take a look, and said with regret.
He hadn’t even touched the Minister Wen when he said that he was dead.
The people on the scene all thought that it was a pity, as the Minister Wen was lying face down, no one knew whether or not he was truly dead.
Xue Mier who was in the hall heard this and immediately stopped crying. She stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the blood traces outside the door and was extremely worried.
Cousin is dead!
No, my cousin would not die so easily!
Xue Mier sniffed once, and then she struggled to run out, but was stopped by Hu Xiao.
"What are you doing out there? What are you doing out there?" Hu Xiao shot her a glance and said disdainfully. She naturally knew that Xue Mier wanted to go out and see the situation in Minister Wen.
However, the Minister Wen was not so easily dead. It was just a few angry words, it was not a big deal.
"Let me go, I’m going to find my cousin." Xue Mier clenched her teeth, and insisted on going to Minister Wen, her cousin cousin fell on the ground, if she was indifferent, then it would be too heartless.
Her eyes were filled with tears, looking delicate and pitiful. It was a pity that Hu Xiao was not a man, otherwise, how could she bear to go against Xue Mier!
"You’re not an imperial physician, what can you do if you go!" Hu Xiao rolled her eyes at her and said with a smile.
At this time, someone had already went up to check on the situation in the Minister Wen. Xue Mier was extremely anxious, she lowered her head and opened her mouth, wanting to bite Hu Xiao’s shoulders.
Seeing that, without thinking, Xue Mier ran out the door and laid on Minister Wen’s body.
Looking at her retreating back, Hu Xiao smiled, and said: "The brotherly love between brother and sister is so deep, Minister Wen is not dead yet, and is already crying so sadly.
"Cousin, don’t scare me. Wake up, are you alive ..." Xue Mier cried for a while, before pouring out all the grievances in her heart. In front of Hu Xiao, she had suffered a lot, but she was helpless.
The officials present looked at each other. The empress was present, but they didn’t dare go up to help. They could only ask the eunuchs by their sides to invite the imperial physician over.
Inside the room, Hu Xiao turned around and glanced at Qin Shuo, then asked with a dangerous tone of voice, "Your majesty, do you think you would be angry at this concubine treating the Imperial Consort Xue in such a manner?"
She thought that if Qin Shuo dared to say that he knew how to play, she would definitely cut off his head, so that they would be separated by Yin and Yang.
Fortunately, Qin Shuo could read people’s expressions, he immediately shook his head and said resolutely: "It’s not painful at all, as long as you are fine, you can do anything you want."
Qin Shuo was very sensible, he did not dare say anything else, but he still defended Hu Xiao and cared about Hu Xiao.
Hu Xiao’s heart felt warm listening to it, but the scene of Qin Shuo and Imperial Consort Xue whispering to each other still surfaced in her mind, after that, she snorted coldly and ridiculed, "Heh, your words were better than the tune. From today onwards, there’s no need to invite any other actors for the New Year’s occasion, just go up on stage and perform."
These words exacerbated the conflict between the two, and after hearing it, Qin Shuo’s face changed. In front of all the officials, Hu Xiao actually said something that violated his dignity.
Minister Wen was so angry that he fainted, and with Mr Mo Zhu’s approval, the matter of the women’s science exam was solved.
"Yin Fufeng, inform all the officials that you have decided to take the female examination, and tell them to obey the orders." Qin Shuo squinted his eyes and said sharply.
He had promised Hu Xiao before, that he wouldn’t make her angry, and he wouldn’t go against her. Therefore, when Hu Xiao was around, he tried her best to hold back her temper.
After listening, happiness blossomed in Yin Fufeng’s heart, and his face was filled with smiles. Then, he asked, "Your majesty, what if Minister Wen disagrees?"
When he said that, his gaze turned towards the officials present, showing that his words were not aimed at the Minister Wen, but at the stubborn old man on the field.
Qin Shuo unknowingly sneered, he opened his mouth and said indifferently: "This is the Qin family’s territory, not their Wen Family.
He enunciated word by word, scaring all the officials present so much that they hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look Qin Shuo in the eye.
Even someone as powerful and influential as the Minister Wen had the possibility of being stripped of their position, what more them!
In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of the month. Hu Xiao could finally heave a sigh of relief;
But what to eat? This was a huge problem!
"Zhi Lan, do you want to eat something?" Hu Xiao asked with a smile on her face. In her heart, there was an indescribable urge. She wanted to eat something, something that she couldn’t normally eat or hadn’t eaten before.
Zhi Lan tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said: "Esteemed Empress, don’t you like to eat sweets? It would be better to let the royal kitchen cook a sweet meal for you, so that you can enjoy yourself."
After she finished speaking, Zhi Lan smiled slightly. Hu Xiao loved to eat sweet food, so normally, Zhi Lan would make her a bowl of sweet water or pastries.
"No, no, no, no, I don’t eat them. I often eat these things, so there’s nothing new to eat." Hu Xiao shook her head, rejecting Zhi Lan’s idea. She ate dessert almost every single day, until she was sick of it.
"I want to eat salty, spicy food to stimulate my spleen and stomach." Suddenly, a thought struck her, "Why don’t you let Imperial Study make a hot pot for me to eat? I haven’t eaten for a long time, it’s it!"
Hu Xiao excitedly said. As she was by her side, Zhi Lan had eaten many strange things, giving her a different experience every time. frёewebnoѵēl.com
"Empress, what is a hotpot?" Zhi Lan raised her eyebrows and asked in surprise.
She had never heard of hotpot, let alone eat it.
Hu Xiao smiled mysteriously and said: "You will know in a while."
At the side, Qin Shuo sat inside the Imperial Study with a blank expression. He rested his hands on his cheeks, and looked at the peach blossoms by the window, feeling a wave of bitterness in his heart.
He and Hu Xiao had not met for more than ten days. If he did not go and look for Hu Xiao, Hu Xiao would not come for him. The two of them persevered like this, neither of them lowering their heads and admitting defeat.
In Qin Shuo’s eyes, Xue Mier was his concubine, and the two of them acted a little more intimately, so there was no need for Hu Xiao to be angry, and furthermore, after more than ten days had passed, Hu Xiao actually only took a glance at him.
This was too much!
His heart was filled with yearning, wishing that he could immediately go into Hu Xiao’s Bedchamber to look for her. However, he couldn’t bring himself to do so.
"Your majesty, are you thinking about the Empress again?!" The eunuch at his side spoke carefully, carefully observing the emperor’s face as he spoke.
