Volume 1, Chapter 251: When meeting the emperor, one does not kneel but bows.
Do not kneel when meeting the emperor.
Inside the magnificent hall.
Everyone's eyes turned to the door at the same time.
Zhang Ruling is like this, and so is Chao Xiao.
Chao Tianque, who was sitting on the dragon throne, couldn't help but straighten his weak body.
There was a lot of expectation in his eyes. It had been fifteen years, a full fifteen years.
At this moment, he was feeling expectant, but also a little complicated.
At this moment, two heavy footsteps were heard outside the hall.
Perhaps it was because the hall was too quiet, so the footsteps seemed particularly loud.
A moment passed like this.
Under the gaze of everyone.
Two figures crossed the threshold of the hall one after the other and walked into the hall.
The two people who came were one tall and one short.
The short one is in front, his body standing straight.
The green-glazed official robe made his figure look particularly upright.
His hair was pinned up and combed very smoothly.
His handsome facial features are elegant, upright, and also have a faint smile.
Behind him was Feng He, dressed in silver-white clothes.
A face as sharp as a knife.
Ink-like eyebrows, sharp eyes, and a high nose.
Different from Ye Tingmu's gentleness.
Feng He's face was full of pride at this time.
When he looked into her eyes, an unknown sense of oppression came over him.
Perhaps it's because he grew up to be too much like Your Majesty, so this is the case.
Or perhaps, as a prince, his aura is just that strong.
Without exception, there was no fear or trepidation on the faces of the two.
Seems so calm.
It was totally different from the first time he went to court.
It looks so casual, like coming home.
This could not help but make all the ministers secretly frightened.
Some even sighed.
These two people are indeed not simple.
No wonder even the old Taoist priest fell into their hands.
At this moment, a hint of solemnity inadvertently appeared on Chao Xiao's handsome brows.
However, his eyes were not looking at Feng He.
Instead, he looked at Ye Tingmu in front of Feng He.
Intelligence shows that all the planning came from this person.
Moreover, when this person appeared, he killed people all the way from Yecheng to Jiuzhou.
Three thousand soldiers were slaughtered in Yecheng, the county magistrate was beheaded in Jinzhou, Chaofan was beheaded in Shangyun, and the northern gangsters slaughtered the saint.
I originally thought that the name of the scholar was just a rumor.
Now I see that what he said is true.
He really didn't expect that the other party was actually a scholar, and a refined scholar at that.
Looking at him like this now, with his handsome face and gentle smile, can he kill someone?
I really can't tell.
People like this are often the most terrifying. You can't be sure what the other party has up their sleeve.
And can conceal murderous intent.
He must be a calm and rational person.
What kind of opponent is the most terrifying? The answer is: a rational opponent.
Perhaps Ye Tingmu is such a person today.
As for his younger brother, he just took a look at him and knew that there was nothing to worry about.
He must be a young and inexperienced person.
The moment he saw Feng He, a bitter smile appeared on Chao Tianque's lips.
I couldn’t help but sigh in my heart, how much younger I was.
The two walked to the center of the hall.
Then stand still.
Looking at the emperor sitting on the golden throne.
There were some changes in their faces.
Ye Tingmu raised his eyebrows. Don't say it, they really look alike.
No wonder outside Beimang City, the old eunuch was so scared that he knelt down when he saw Feng He.
These two people are not only similar in spirit, in Ye Tingmu's opinion, they are exactly the same.
It’s just that the person on the dragon throne looked a little worse.
Feng He was naturally surprised because the other person looked so much like him.
He just stared at it intently.
Not only did he frown and wrinkle his nose from time to time, but he also made sounds of surprise and wonder.
The two of them just looked at Chaotianque like this.
Keep your eyes unbiased and always look straight ahead.
He didn't show any intention of kneeling down to pay homage.
Their actions naturally caught the attention of all the court officials.
Their faces had different expressions; some looked shocked, some were afraid, some were angry, and of course some looked amusement.
Not only did he not kneel before the emperor, he even dared to look directly at him. He is simply lawless.
Seeing the two of them being so rude.
Among the military commanders, a general stepped forward.
He scolded the two men, "How dare you look His Majesty in the eye! Kneel down and pay homage to His Majesty!"
Feng He was obviously displeased when he heard this, and wrinkles appeared on his forehead. He looked at the fifty-year-old veteran, pointed his finger forward, and was about to start a fight.
He doesn't care whether you are an emperor or not, or whether you have a palace or not.
Fortunately, Ye Tingmu came to his senses, grabbed his arm, and signaled with his eyes to stop him.
Although Feng He was unwilling, he still listened to his elder brother obediently.
But he muttered in his heart, when I become emperor, I will be the first one to deal with you.
Ye Tingmu knew that he and Feng He were indeed rude.
But it wasn't intentional, they were just too similar, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances.
He pulled Feng He and flicked his wide sleeves.
Then cross your palms front and back.
Bow 90 degrees.
"Ye Tingmu pays respect to His Majesty."
Feng He followed suit and bent down slightly.
He shouted, "Ye Fenghe pays homage to the Emperor."
After they bowed and spoke like this, the two of them stood up straight again.
But this time he didn't look towards Chaotianque.
The ministers were stunned again, their eyes full of disbelief.
No long live the emperor, and no kneeling.
That's the end.
Although the Fourth Prince did not grow up in the palace, it is rumored that the two of them also came from the mountains.
It is understandable that there is some lack of etiquette.
But all the people in the nine provinces should know one thing, that is, they must kneel when they see the emperor.
This is an eternal rule.
Could it be that these two people are unaware of such principles and matters?
They won't believe it even if you kill them.
There is only one possibility, that is, these two people deliberately did not kneel.
Is this a naked provocation to Your Majesty?
And it happened in this Golden Palace, in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.
What do they want to do...
Extremely audacious and lawless, this is how people describe the two at this moment.
A smile suddenly appeared on Chao Xiao's mouth corner.
He pursed his lips, his eyes full of amusement.
I muttered to myself: "This is really interesting..."
He really wanted to see what these two were going to do.
The general who had just scolded the two men saw this scene.
He was so angry that his face turned red, as if he was glowing.
He pointed at Ye Tingmu and scolded him again.
"You are such a rude and unruly commoner. It's fine if Your Highness doesn't kneel. You are a member of the royal family and are exempt from the ritual of kneeling. But you are a commoner and you refuse to kneel before the emperor. Do you want to die for your disrespect of his majesty?"
This person is from the eldest prince's faction.
At this moment, the prince he supported was in the palace, so naturally he would seize the opportunity to put on a show.
Although he didn't dare to do anything to the Fourth Prince, in his eyes, Ye Tingmu was just an ordinary scholar in the True Yuan Realm.
It's not as suspenseful as the rumors say.
That's why this scene happened.
And he didn't act too realistically, he was so angry that he was shaking all over.
But whether this was an act or real, anyone with a discerning eye present could tell.
However, to outsiders, it seemed that he was not helping the eldest prince, but maintaining the royal dignity.
He smiled at Xiao Qian, since his subordinates were willing to give Ye Tingmu a try, why not do it?
Just watch the show.
Ye Tingmu's face was a little stiff.
The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
Logically, he should kneel.
However, I was used to being arrogant, so naturally I had no intention of kneeling.
And Feng He is right next to him.
The idea that I instill in these people every day is that heaven and earth will not kneel.
If he compromises and kneels down now, how will Feng He see it?
Don’t know what you are doing?
But he still held on and didn't kneel down.
You must set a good example yourself.
And he knew that the emperor would not punish him for this.
I have been raising the prince for him for five years.
He said nothing, remained silent.
But Feng He on the side refused to do it.
He was already unhappy with this person.
Now the other party pointed at his elder brother and scolded him,
How could he bear it?
He rolled up his sleeves amid everyone's surprised gaze.
"Old thing, I've been fed up with you for a long time...die..."
