Chapter 51: Changing the Morning Court Time



Xianyang City.

In front of the emperor's bedroom.

Daji stood on the steps, looking at the ministers kneeling at the bottom of the steps.

I felt a little sad.

Once upon a time, except for the Empress Dowager, everyone in the harem, even the Emperor, had to be polite when seeing them.

However, now, they all knelt here one by one, willing to submit to His Majesty.

Your Majesty, this is truly remarkable.

"Everyone, please stand up. His Majesty is ill and cannot summon you. Please go back and rest. When His Majesty is better, he will summon you."

As Daji's voice fell.

The four provincial governors looked at each other.

Then he frowned tightly.

Old man Cai Jing said that His Majesty is fine now.

Why are you sick now?

Could it be that His Majesty doesn't want to see us?

Your Majesty, this is too disrespectful, isn't it?

You came all the way here, and you didn’t even see me?

Even the late emperor would treat us with courtesy when he saw us.

Could it be... that this is a show of power from His Majesty the Emperor?

Are you just testing us on purpose?

If we are dissatisfied with the royal family and covet the throne.

He would definitely take this opportunity to fly into a rage, or even break into the palace to see the emperor.

By that time, Your Majesty the Emperor will be able to find enough reasons to deal with us?

But if I don't see His Majesty today, I will definitely be inferior to him if we meet in the future.

At that time, not only would he have to pretend to be a subject on the surface, but in reality, he would be forced to be suppressed by him.

What should I do?

Make a big scene?

Definitely not!

After all, the other three guys have been wanting to be unlucky for a long time.

He will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to kick me when I'm down.

...

All four of them held this idea, so just when Cai Jing was in a dilemma, a situation arose that even he could not have predicted.

That is, the four of them spoke one after another, asking about the emperor's health and that they were waiting for his orders at any time.

This surprised Cai Jing.

He had thought that the emperor's deliberate absence would anger the four of them.

But now it seems that Your Majesty is sure to win.

Your Majesty is indeed a wise ruler.

In this way, the four provincial governors withdrew from the imperial city in full view of the public, and settled down in their mansions in the capital city very peacefully.

After the four men left, Cai Jing bowed to Daji and asked, "I wonder how your Majesty is doing?"

Hearing this, the latter smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Prime Minister. Your Majesty is in good health."

At this moment, the two smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.

In fact, even Daji was surprised by the reactions of the four provincial governors today.

She was ready to argue with them.

No one expected that the man-eating tiger would turn into a docile cat at this moment.

All of this really depends on Your Majesty.

Just one plan to make them kings can completely restrain the four of them. Throughout history, I am afraid that only Your Majesty can do it.

......

After the four returned to their residence, they told their advisors what had happened in the palace today.

Their think tanks all said that what the emperor wanted to do was actually similar to what they thought.

But more importantly, the emperor wanted to see from this small action who had rebellious intentions.

If you want to stay safe in the future, you must show your absolute loyalty.

Otherwise, with the emperor's methods, he might not even have to use his own hands to kill people.

......

Two more days passed.

In the past few days, Ying Yuan has been pretending to be sick and not attending the morning court.

In fact, it was because his heart was full of grievances and unwillingness.

How could Cao Cao achieve such a great victory with just an army of over one hundred thousand?

Because he is Cao Cao?

And those few provincial governors...

Whenever he thought of these things, Ying Yuan felt a headache.

These days, Daji was overly worried about his health, so she asked the imperial physician to see him every day.

This day is the same as before.

While the imperial physician was checking Ying Yuan's pulse, he suddenly remembered something and asked, "A few days ago, when I fainted, were you also the one who treated me?"

Hearing this, the imperial physician quickly replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. I used acupuncture to relieve the congestion in Your Majesty's chest."

He was secretly delighted in his heart, thinking that maybe, next, His Majesty would reward him.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ying Yuan took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said, "What's your name?"

"Your Majesty, I, Zhu Danxi, pay my respects to you."

After Zhu Danxi took his pulse, he knelt down immediately.

Seeing this, Ying Yuan said in a deep voice: "Very good, I will remember you, and I hope you can live a long life."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Danxi was flattered.

He actually kowtowed and knelt on the ground.

That is a blessing from His Majesty!

This is much harder to come by than gold, silver, or other treasures.

"I thank you, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Danxi suppressed his inner excitement.

Ying Yuan really wanted to cut him into pieces.

...

The next day.

Go to court early.

Ying Yuan looked at the memorial sent by Cao Cao very carefully.

Many meritorious officials are recorded above.

Pan Feng, Xu Huang, Xu Chu, Guo Jia, etc.

When he saw these names, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

No wonder Boss Cao won.

With such capable people assisting us, it would be strange if we lose.

It seems that this world has included all the historical celebrities in the previous history.
