After stealing the divorce book, Princess Salted Fish fell off her horse

Chapter 695
In the early morning of the second day, after discussing the court affairs, the Minister of Rites came out and proposed that the envoys of the Western Tang Dynasty had arrived in Yanzhou and would arrive in the capital via Linzhou in a few days.

The Minister of Honglu Temple also reported the exact information of the envoy from the Western Tang Dynasty.

At first I thought it was just a prince, but it turned out that it was the prince of Xitang.

Eastern Xia and Western Tang are equal in national power. Since the prince from Western Tang came, the Eastern Xia should also be received by the prince.

However, Dong Xia has no prince.

Who will receive it? On the surface, it doesn't matter, but there is a lot of information to be conveyed in private.

Chu Yuncheng took the initiative to come out and said: "As the royal son, I am willing to share the worries of the father!"

He took the initiative to jump out, what he meant, needless to say, everyone understands.

This is not only to grab credit, but also to make everyone think that if he represents the imperial court to receive the prince of the Western Tang Dynasty, even though he is not the prince, he is still the same as the prince.

If the emperor wants to establish a prince in the future, then he is the first choice.

The Four Princes' Party also came out to agree, saying that it is very reasonable for the emperor's son to receive the Crown Prince of the Western Tang Dynasty, and the Fourth Prince's character is valuable, he behaves well, and is calm and serious. He is the best candidate to receive the Crown Prince of the Western Tang Dynasty, and he will definitely be able to Handle this matter properly, and let the prince of the Western Tang Dynasty and his party feel the prestige of my Huanghuang country in Dongxia!

Seeing that the emperor was a little disturbed, the eldest prince's faction could not stand anymore, Ding Yuanhou immediately came out and said: "Your Majesty, I think it is better for the envoys of the Western Tang Dynasty to be received by the eldest prince!"

These words naturally attracted the conquest of the four princes' party. How can such a matter related to the state system be contended for?You said that the eldest prince should be the eldest prince?Who doesn't know how to speak empty words, if it is not convincing, every mouthful of saliva will spray you to death.

Qin Muzhao, the Marquis of Dingyuan, said calmly, "The eldest prince has always been knowledgeable and loves to study classics and history. He has studied the culture, history, customs and customs of the Western Tang Dynasty. It can be said that there is no one who knows more about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty than the eldest prince." Isn’t it better and kinder for a person who understands the Western Tang culture to receive the prince of the Western Tang Dynasty?”

Some people think that if you want to understand the culture of the Western Tang Dynasty, you must count Liang Wang Chu Xinyuan as one. After all, it was the Liang Wang who led people to drive out the Western Tang people and asked the Western Tang Dynasty to cede land for peace.And Liang Wang was able to win big battles because he knew the Western Tang Dynasty, knew himself and the enemy, so he won a hundred battles!
But now King Liang is out to suppress bandits, he is not in court, and no one is going to offend the eldest prince for King Liang.

Naturally, the Four Princes' Party will not bring up another person to fight against their master at this time, they are just fighting with the First Prince's Party!

"To understand the culture of the Western Tang Dynasty, I went to receive the prince of the Western Tang Dynasty. So, is it to cater to the Western Tang Dynasty? I, Dongxia, need to cater to the Western Tang Dynasty?"

"Who said understanding is just to cater to? I am a state of etiquette in the Eastern Xia Dynasty, and this is to let the envoys of the Western Tang Dynasty see my heritage and inclusiveness in the Eastern Xia Dynasty!"

"Grow other people's ambition, destroy your own prestige!"

"What do you mean by destroying your prestige? This is a reflection of my Eastern Xia heritage!"

……

Two groups of people quoted scriptures and allusions in the court hall, and fought hard according to etiquette.

On the one hand, he said that the eldest prince is handsome and handsome, and being a reception envoy is the most correct choice; on the other hand, he insisted that the fourth prince is a noble character, elegant and elegant, and that being a reception envoy is well deserved!

The noise on both sides became louder and louder, and the louder and louder the noise, the emperor heard his ears buzzing, his eyes swept away, the Minister of Rites bowed his head and retreated behind, as if he was waiting for the emperor to make a decision, and he would assist whoever made the decision.

The Minister of Honglusi looked to the left and to the right, as if he couldn't make a choice and didn't know who to speak for.

There are also those neutral ministers, their mouths seem to be screwed by bottle caps, and they don't say anything.

But the first prince's faction and the fourth prince's faction had amazing fighting power, and the whole court looked like a morning vegetable market for a moment.

A flash of impatience flashed in the emperor's cloudy old eyes, and then he saw the eighth prince Chu Yuntai standing aside.

Chu Yuntai did not participate.

The emperor raised his eyebrows.

Usually at this time, the eighth child is already jumping up and down to lead the fourth child, but today it is so quiet?
Seeing the emperor looking over, Chu Yuntai's eyes were full of anticipation and hope.

Since Chu Yuncheng knew about his private actions, Chu Yuncheng just kept a close eye on him and suppressed him everywhere.He was a man with his tail between his legs, and he didn't even dare to bully the weak.I'm afraid that if Chu Yuncheng finds out some wrongdoing, he will never recover.

He has been on the saddle for Chu Yuncheng all these years, and he knows exactly who Chu Yuncheng is.

To be a reception envoy, he knew that he might not be qualified, but, seeing how Chu Yuncheng and Chu Chengye were arguing with each other, and their looks were so ugly, what if the emperor got annoyed and chose neither of them, so why did he choose him?

The emperor caught his gaze, but moved away again, and landed on the third prince Chu Juan.

Today is the Great Court Meeting, and all those who are eligible for the early court have come.The third prince has already been crowned king, so it's normal to come to court.

But he quickly looked away again.

In all honesty, the youngest is honest and calm, which is a peace of mind, but just because of his legs, he is disqualified.

To make him a reception envoy, wouldn't Xitang want to laugh at the lack of people in Dongxia and use a cripple to receive him?
No, there is someone else?

The emperor thought about it, there should be someone else, who is it?He couldn't remember it for a moment.

Oh yes, where is Seventh?
The emperor glanced around, then around again, and then, in the corner, saw Chu Jingxian who was leaning against the wall, sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.

The emperor was furious.

Earlier when he went to court, he just yawned, but this time he dared to sleep blatantly.

Moreover, he still found such a corner, did he think he couldn't see it?Or thought that with so many people making noise, he would be ignored?
He shouted suddenly: "Presumptuous!"

The first prince's faction and the fourth prince's faction were fighting fiercely, and they all fell silent at this time.

Controversy is contention, quarrel is quarrel, everyone present is very discerning.

If the emperor is tolerant, they will be able to fight without distractions, and fight with their mouths.

The emperor was angry, so they quickly silenced it. This has nothing to do with tact, it's wise and safe!

If the head is stunned and the head is green, thinking that at this time they can stand up for their secretly serving master regardless of their care, and get the power of the dragon, then it is a big mistake.I angered the emperor, and now I have lost my life, so what can I do in the future?

After they fell silent, they all stole glances at Tianyan, who is the emperor making angry with?Is it because they said some Passover words when they were arguing just now?
Or did they accidentally touch the emperor's reverse scale?

The emperor's face is sinking like water now, and he is full of anger.You won't go on a killing spree, will you?

When the emperor was angry, he laid down millions of corpses!
Then, they saw the emperor's eyes falling in one direction.

Not looking at them?

After breathing a sigh of relief, they thought, which unlucky ghost is it?
Standing at that place was Prince Li.

This is an idle county king who belongs to the clan and does not seek meritorious service, but seeks to be innocent.

He didn't seem to say a word, did he?

Everyone stared at him, King Li was also taken aback, he regretted it very much.Although he is a county king, he has never been involved in the affairs of the court, and he came to the court just to respond. If he had known that the court was so unsettled today, he should have said he was sick.

It's too late to say anything now.

He was about to kneel tremblingly.

It's not that he is cowardly, but that the emperor has always been strict with the clan. When he came to the throne, he killed many members of the clan.Of course those brothers were going to die, and many cousins ​​also died, and those who were in the way of his eyes were all removed.

Prince Li, a majestic nephew, never felt how hard his head was.

Just when he almost knelt down, the emperor shouted angrily: "Lao Qi!"

Only then did the people staring at King Li realize that there was someone behind King Li.

The one was leaning against the wall, sleeping soundly, as if everyone woke him up and he was sleeping alone, let me go to the hall, and I fell asleep by myself, a little...unfortunate.

This is also a great disrespect to the emperor, no wonder the emperor is furious.

Prince Li also found out that he was not the target of the emperor's temper. He breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly reached out to tug on the sleeve of Chu Jingxian, who was sleeping soundly.

Chu Jingxian was caught off guard and was almost pulled down. He rubbed his eyes and muttered, "Finally retreated? Uncle Li, let's go listen to a little song today!"

Prince Li's face turned pale.

The day before yesterday, when he went to a restaurant for dinner, he happened to meet Chu Jingxian. Chu Jingxian was so generous that he packed a table and invited him to a banquet. While drinking, he found out that the two had too much in common, and they had a deep understanding of food. Love to play is about the same.

He even happily moved to Xinghefang on the spot to play a few hands.

Today Chu Jingxian was standing next to King Li, and the two had made an appointment before, to drink and listen to ditties together after court.

At this moment, he wished to gag Chu Jingxian's mouth.

With so many eyes watching, so many ears listening, you look listless when you go up, and you look happy when you go down. Is this trying to incite hatred?
Moreover, it is still the hatred of the emperor, right?

Sure enough, the emperor was so angry that he snatched the whisk from Eunuch Liu's hand and threw it towards Chu Jingxian.

But stay away.

Originally, the place where the prince was standing was in the front, but the eldest prince and the four princes lined up on both sides, and Chu Jingxian intentionally leaned back, far away from the position of the dragon chair.

He had always leaned back like this before, and the emperor ignored him at that time, but at that time he just yawned quietly, not sleeping in the hall so blatantly.

The whisk fell to the ground and made a noise.

The sound is not loud and dull!
However, at this moment, the entire hall was completely silent, and the sound was like thunder.

As soon as Chu Jingxian raised his eyes, he met the eyes of the angry emperor.

He opened his eyes wide and looked around, he didn't understand, so he said: "Is this king snoring?"

Everyone: "..."

What does this have to do with snoring or not snoring?You are sleeping in court, isn't this serious enough?
Chu Chengye and Chu Yuncheng were filled with contempt and ridicule, and they were very happy.

Against the backdrop of Chu Jingxian, a prince who is not doing his job properly and dares to sleep in court, they themselves are a model of diligence, courtesy, and virtuousness.

Chu Yuntai felt neither happy nor sad.

Normally, he would rush to be Chu Yuncheng's pawn, but now, he knew that even if he was a pawn, Chu Yuncheng would not give him a second look.For such a cold and ruthless Chu Yuncheng, what's wrong with being a little selfish?
At this time, Chu Jingxian provoked the emperor's anger, and for the first time, he didn't intend to add insult to injury, but rather felt a bit sad!
Chu Jue winked at Chu Jingxian, meaning to let him admit his mistake to his father!

Chu Jingxian didn't receive it, he just woke up with a dazed look on his face.

The emperor said angrily: "Lao Qi, do you still have Zhen in your eyes? Do you still have any rules?"

Chu Jingxian bowed his hands and saluted, and said: "Father calm down, my son's admiration for father is like the water of the Lin River, and he can't stop talking. But the affairs of the court are too boring and not interesting, and my son is fainted from listening to it." Sleeping. I accidentally fell asleep, and my son didn't mean it! Please forgive my father!"

Everyone: "..."

The Seventh Prince is really a god!
He dared to talk about the boring affairs of the court in front of the emperor, making people sleepy?And the apology is not sincere at all.

The emperor was so angry that he gasped and stared at him fiercely!

The emperor was so angry that he couldn't breathe.

None of the courtiers spoke, and no one dared to make a sound.

But Chu Jingxian yawned again, trying to look energetic, and raised his innocent eyes: "Father, please continue, I promise that I won't fall asleep this time!"

But that casual look, the look that you are free and don't care about me, is really not good.

Shen Diancong couldn't help but said: "As a prince, how can you be so tired and lazy?"

Chu Jingxian let out a light snort, and said, "Master Du Yushi, do you want to take part in this king's crime of laziness and shamelessness? Come on, anyway, it's not the first time you have taken part in it!"

Shen Diancong was furious, and said: "The old minister participated in the performance before, all with evidence to rely on, there are examples to follow, and there is no selfishness! You don't cultivate personal virtues, conduct, words, and enlightenment. Now you still Do you want to blame the old minister?"

Chu Jingxian was also furious: "Master Du Yushi, why is this king hindering you with eating, drinking, and having fun with his salary? You claim to be fair, but you are behind the scenes. Do you know nothing about this king? This is the court, and this king is the prince, is your official authority too great?"

Shen Diancong's face turned dark with anger.

He was originally Chu Jingxian's grandfather, but at this moment, Chu Jingxian suppressed him as a prince, how could he not be angry?

The emperor snorted and said, "Enough!"

Shen Diancong and Chu Jingxian turned their heads away.

The emperor stared at Chu Jingxian with dark eyes: "I think you are too idle! If you are idle, you will make trouble. When the envoys from the Western Tang Dynasty come, you are responsible for receiving them!"

Chu Chengye: "..."

Chu Yuncheng: "..."

What just happened?Why are those who want to share the worries of the father, the father abandons it, and the one who is tired and invisible in the court, snoring while sleeping, is entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the emperor?

Chu Jingxian blurted out: "Why?"

The courtiers gasped.

The way they looked at Chu Jingxian was complicated and difficult to understand.

"Presumptuous!" The emperor shouted angrily!

Chu Jingxian hurriedly said: "Father forgives the crime, and the minister is quick to speak! But, father, why? You can leave this kind of matter to the eldest brother and the fourth brother? How do you receive it? Take the prince of the Western Tang Dynasty with you. Going to the casino, listening to ditties, drinking and chatting?"

All the ministers: "..."

Li Zi, dare not see, dare not hear, cannot bear to hear it!
