Chapter 2018: Extra: Such a day is really good
Xuanyuan Jin's words of preparing for war caused the ministers, who were originally filled with righteous indignation, to change color.
This was not the end. Xuanyuan Jin silently waved to the two young eunuchs who came hurriedly with sweat on their foreheads.
Two young eunuchs were carrying a large rectangular plate made of pure gold, on which was placed a piece of gold silk with writing on it.
"Let them all see."
Xuanyuan Jin ordered two young eunuchs.
The two young eunuchs walked towards Yu Zhilan with shaking legs.
When Yu Zhilan saw clearly the contents on the gold and silk, the corners of her mouth twitched again.
Then he signaled the young eunuch to show it to the Minister of Rites.
When the Minister of Rites saw the young eunuch coming towards him, his scalp went numb.
What the hell is going on?
The Minister of Rites instinctively wanted to retreat.
However, the two golden words "recruiting a son-in-law" still caught the eyes of the Minister of Rites.
Minister of Rites: “…”
Let him die.
His heart couldn't take it anymore!
That legendary ancestor actually wanted to find a son-in-law for the Empress!
That's right! This is the marriage proposal the old palace master gave Xuanyuan Jin when he and Tang Bao returned to Yunzhong City.
The old palace master said that as long as he dared to take a concubine, as long as he dared to make Tang Bao sad, then she would find a son-in-law for Tang Bao!
As the Palace Master of Cloud City, what kind of man could she want? How many men could she want?
In the words of the old palace master, if Tang Bao had not liked Xuanyuan Jin and had not firmly disagreed, she would have long ago married Tang Bao into a harem!
Well, actually Xuanyuan Jin already knew this.
The Minister of Rites looked at the words on the gold and silk and felt as if struck by lightning, with his vision going dark.
They can still fight to the death in Xi Qin and Nanjiang, but can they provoke that ancestor?
Do you dare to provoke me?
The retired emperor had thrown away his throne and was about to follow someone else.
No, no, is that a person?
That's not a human!
That's God!
The Minister of Rites took a deep breath and glared at the Minister of Revenue fiercely.
A talent show? What kind of talent show?!
Are you really going to force the Emperor to personally expose his face in front of the Golden Palace?!
Isn’t the emperor’s face a face?
Originally, the emperor could have kept it a secret and maintained his image as a deeply affectionate person for his entire life, not holding beauty pageants or taking concubines. But now, everything is revealed.
The emperor will never be able to hold a beauty pageant in his lifetime!
I will never be able to save my face again in this life!
Even if the emperor is willing not to hold a beauty contest, others will think that he is forced to do so, right?
In order to save the emperor's face, the Minister of Rites wanted to slap the Minister of Revenue a few times.
The emperor has lost his face, why do you still have face?
Two young eunuchs carried gold and silk and walked past the ministers one by one.
Su Laowu was overjoyed when he saw this, while those ministers who had selfishly begged the emperor to select daughters and wanted to put their own daughters into the harem felt disheartened and looked ashen.
Even if they dared to instigate the emperor to hold a beauty contest for their own selfish reasons, they would be courting death by provoking Western Qin, Southern Xinjiang, and the legendary ancestor at the same time!
Who dares?
They drifted away.
They actually forgot that behind the Queen, there was an ancestor.
Xuanyuan Jin snorted and looked at the ministers who took the lead in submitting the application for the selection.
"My dear Lord Li, what do you think about me obeying the order of the Supreme Emperor and being willing to be deposed and participate in the selection?" Xuanyuan Jin asked softly.
Cold sweat was pouring out of the Minister of Revenue's forehead.
At this moment, he felt that all his little thoughts were exposed under Xuanyuan Jin's gaze, with nothing to hide.
"I deserve to die! I was foolish! Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
“Bang, bang, bang…”
The Minister of Revenue began to kowtow desperately.
Xuanyuan Jin let the Minister of Revenue kowtow and looked at the others.
"Lord Zhang, what do you think of the Queen of Western Qin's idea of giving the Empress a husband? How much is appropriate?"
“Bang, bang, bang…”
Zhang Aiqing, who was named, also began to kowtow desperately.
"I deserve to die! I was foolish! Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
Xuanyuan Jin looked at the next one.
"Qian Aiqing, do you think that if the High Priest of Southern Xinjiang marries the Empress, I can win the title of her legal husband?"
“Bang, bang, bang…”
"I deserve to die! I was foolish! Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
"Lord Liu, what do you think of me marrying into the Empress's family?"
“Bang, bang, bang…”
"I deserve to die! I was foolish! Your Majesty, please forgive me..."
…
For a moment, the only sound in the hall was the "bang bang bang" of kowtows.
Xuanyuan Jin seemed to be tired of listening, and suddenly leaned back lazily, and his voice became casual.
"How about this? The Empress is just a woman. How can a woman take a husband? How can I lose face as a man because of her?" Xuanyuan Jin said, "I will immediately issue an imperial decree to select a concubine. If Western Qin and Southern Xinjiang dare to take a husband for the Empress, we will go to war."
"Oh, by the way, the Northern Qi general was originally a servant of the Empress. He and the King of Donglin were like brothers, and they helped each other."
"Oh, by the way, you all know the King of Donglin. He's the Queen's biological brother, commanding a hundred thousand Donglin troops. He's always loved the Queen the most and can't bear to see her suffer even the slightest injustice..."
"Oh, by the way, our ancestors will definitely send heavenly soldiers and generals to destroy Dayan..."
"Oh, right..."
"Your Majesty, I am confused..." The Minister of Revenue burst into tears and begged you to stop saying "Oh, right..."
At this time, the minister kneeling on the ground regretted it so much that his intestines turned green. He wanted to smash his head into pieces and just begged the emperor to stop saying "oh".
Every time the emperor said "Oh", they felt that they were one step closer to being called a sinner for all eternity.
If Dayan was destroyed, they would have no face to see their ancestors after their death.
Xuanyuan Jin's face turned cold, and he suddenly sat up straight. With a "bang", he threw the memorial on the imperial desk to the ground.
"Hmph! How can you be confused? You're just too shrewd!" Xuanyuan Jin said in a cold voice, "You see that the world is peaceful now, and you want to stir up war. You want Dayan to be attacked from all sides, and you want me to become the king of a ruined country!"
"I dare not! I am confused..."
“Bang, bang, bang…”
"Since you are confused, then just retire and return home."
With just one sentence, Xuanyuan Jin completely ended the official careers of the Minister of Revenue and others.
The Minister of Revenue and others regretted their decision, but they could only thank the emperor and leave.
The hall was filled with silence, and everyone knew that the etiquette of the emperor's selection of concubines had been abolished at this moment.
Tang Bao soon found out what happened in the previous dynasty.
She was heartwarming to see the ancestors and others protecting her, but she also felt helpless about Xuanyuan Jin's radical approach.
"You, you clearly have a better way, why do you have to make such a fuss?" Tang Bao said coquettishly when she saw Xuanyuan Jin, "Don't you care about your reputation? A dignified emperor is forced not to take concubines, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed?"
There is a big difference between doing something willingly and being forced to do something.
After Tang Bao finished speaking, she winked at Xuanyuan Jin playfully.
Xuanyuan Jin smiled and lowered his head to kiss Tang Bao on the lips.
"This is the only way to solve the problem once and for all, so that people won't pop up every now and then and cause trouble!"
I have to say, it is true.
During Xuanyuan Jin's reign, no one mentioned the draft again.
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he knelt down beside Tang Bao.
He added, "As for face? What is that? I don't have any! I just want everyone to know that my ability to hold onto the throne depends entirely on the Empress! I'm essentially just a gigolo!"
Xuanyuan Jin became more and more confident as he spoke!
Humph! Don't think he doesn't know, some people have never given up, just waiting for him to make a mistake so that they can steal his girl!
dream!
He is the only one who can enjoy the life of his wife!
Tang Bao stroked her forehead.
She felt that her brother had become more and more shameless since he got married.
Throughout history, I'm afraid that only my brother, the emperor, can talk about living off his wife so confidently and with such pride.
After Xuanyuan Jin finished speaking, he reached out and stroked Tang Bao's belly. His eyes became extremely gentle, full of fatherly love.
"Did the child bother you? Was he obedient?"
Tang Bao shook her head and smiled: "Very obedient."
How can an embryo be disobedient?
She didn't even have any symptoms of morning sickness.
Xuanyuan Jin lowered his head and leaned on Tang Bao's belly, put his arms around Tang Bao's waist, and sighed with satisfaction.
"It's such a wonderful day..."
Tang Bao's mouth corners subconsciously rose, and she placed her hand on Xuanyuan Jin's head and stroked it gently.
Yes, days like this are really nice.
