Chapter 441: Our Emperor is Wise and Intelligent
There were many envoys who shared the same idea as him. They all felt that Dayu, the emperor, was so incompetent that he was really despised.
Especially after walking all the way to the capital, the many chaotic situations have left them with nowhere to point fingers.
It's a complete mess!
The books that Boguang Bookstore freely provides for students to borrow are all rare and famous works that ordinary people should not have the right to read. These should all be in the hands of aristocratic families.
But in Dayu, this path of enlightenment was cut off! It is said that the person who did this was the demon queen of Dayu.
There are also cheap snowflake salt, fragrant bath products, and the dazzling glass workshop...
There are all kinds of businesses under the name of the Ministry of Revenue, which so blatantly compete with the people for profits. Only the Li royal family can do it?
The most counter-intuitive thing was that as they traveled along the way, they discovered that many women were showing up freely in many places.
Whether they are working or strolling around, no one follows the rules and wears a veil. They just expose their faces for people to see. It is really disrespectful!
While condemning Dayu's chaos, they were secretly pleased. It seemed that the new emperor of Dayu was a bit incompetent and had no talent for governing the country.
Now, after seeing the words and deeds of Emperor Dayu, they felt both disdain and ecstasy. It seemed that this dog emperor of Dayu was really no good and had no ability to govern the country at all!
He glanced at the seat above him again. The Emperor Dayu, who was sitting on the dragon throne, did not come to talk nicely to the envoys, but was just obsessed with the beauty of his queen.
Oh, this is really great!
Of course, all the important officials in Dayu Court also saw their emperor's little tricks, and they naturally shared the same views as those envoys.
Our emperor really did his best today. He knew it was an important occasion, so he didn't slam the table or curse at the state banquet, nor did he pin that Great Li King to the ground and beat him up.
Oh, this is really great!
The Minister of Rites, who was always keeping a close eye on his own emperor, stroked his beard with a look of comfort. Seeing the emperor sitting at the top of the table with the empress in a proper manner, his old eyes almost instantly turned red.
It's not easy, it's not easy for me. If there weren't such a powerful guardian like the Empress, how would I, Old Liu, as the Minister of Rites in charge of rituals, have such a scoundrel father as the Emperor? How would I be recorded in history books in the future...
Tsk!
He shuddered and didn't dare to think any further.
"Ah, Brother Liu. Tsk, I've always known that it must be difficult for you to be an official in this imperial court where you climbed up from humble beginnings, but I never expected..."
The rat sitting next to him and sighing softly was his rival when he was young and studying abroad, and the current Minister of the Ministry of Rites of Dali, Luo Cong.
The man leaned closer with a fake smile on his face, raising his wine glass to hide the traces of a sarcastic smile on his lips. However, his deliberately lowered voice was filled with regret and pride.
"Brother Liu, ever since we parted at the academy, I have been thinking of you all the time!
When I was young, I always competed with you. No matter in family background or knowledge and means, I felt that you and I were always on par with each other.
Only in this last point, in terms of choosing a ruler to serve, hahahaha, you finally lost to me. I originally made a great ambition to assist a wise ruler to create a prosperous era and build the glory of the family, and now the winner can only be me! Hahahahaha..."
Luo Gou's smug, contented expression finally managed to pique Old Liu's growing competitive spirit. So, he too raised his wine cup to cover his lips, toasting as if to a foreign dignitary.
"Oh, you win!"
He truly followed his heart and uttered the emperor's catchphrase. Although the other party certainly couldn't understand it, Old Liu felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart. His voice, lowered so that only the two of them could hear, also brought out a lot of arrogance.
"My emperor is like the rising sun, and he will surely achieve great things in the future! And how old is the old emperor you assisted?
Our emperor is wise and discerning, knowing how to employ talented individuals. He will surely become a legendary figure in the future! But the king you have chosen is approaching his twilight years. Will he be able to lead you to a place in history?
Our emperor possesses unprecedented courage and ambition, daring to think what others dare not, and to do what ordinary people dare not. The signs of a wise and enlightened ruler for a prosperous age have emerged, and I, Liu, have clearly chosen the right leader!
And you, my brother Luo, what can you compare with me?"
If the arrogance in the other person's eyes had not been so genuine, Luo Cong would really have thought that he was old and his hearing was not working well, so he misunderstood what his opponent said?
He shook his head slightly in disbelief, looking at the rival in front of him whom he had made friends with in his youth, and then at the man sitting at the top in the distance who was clearly wearing a dragon robe but always felt like a bandit king who had just successfully usurped the throne.
He read it over and over again in silence for several times before finally sighing with regret.
Putting down his wine cup, he spoke with a sigh.
"Liu Maosheng, I know that you must have been thinking about me all these years, just like I have been thinking about you.
Even though we're enemies, I never intended to push you into a desperate situation. Really. You really don't have to deceive me like this, let alone deceive yourself with lies.
That's it, tsk...
How dare you boast so against your will?
Really, I don’t dare to listen even if you praise me.
"Since we've known each other before, I'll give you a few words of advice. If you can get off this wreck now, hurry up and do it. Dynasties may change, but families are forever. Wait for the next..."
"You fart!"
Liu Maosheng, who always pays attention to etiquette and decorum, was rarely so angry at the bastard opposite him that he uttered vulgar words.
"What happened to my emperor?
Why am I praising you against my will?
Our emperor is a wise and intelligent ruler!"
Luo Cong curled his lips subtly and glanced secretly towards the dragon throne.
"Listen up, Minister Liu! It seems your emperor, who seems to be a wise ruler, is slamming the table and cursing at his mother while spewing vulgar language."
"Duan Turtle, you f*cking think I can't do anything to you, right? If you don't stop being so naughty, I'll dig out your eyeballs!"
Liu Maosheng looked up nervously and saw that the Empress's look made the Emperor shut up and sit still.
Only then did Old Liu breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately, our emperor is still wise and intelligent!
He said nothing, just kept comforting her.
But his opponent immediately laughed at him sarcastically.
"Is this the emperor you always claimed was a wise ruler? Ha, Liu Maosheng..."
Luo Cong shook his head speechlessly, causing Liu Maosheng to also shake his head speechlessly.
Tsk, who told you that my wise and intelligent emperor must be the emperor?
Can't she be the queen?
There is only one letter difference between the emperor and the empress. Anyway, they both have the word "emperor" in their name, so he is our emperor!
As for the rest, why bother with too many details?
