Big Joe, Little Joe loves me

Chapter 268

Early morning, above the court.

The little emperor sits high on the throne, with all the officials on both sides.

Right in front of the little emperor, Wang Lang and Hua Xin vomited their bitterness in front of everyone. There will be floods, plagues, bandits and bandits...

The little emperor listened tirelessly, sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes asking questions, sometimes silent.

After Wang Lang and Hua Xin finally finished speaking, other officials stepped forward.

The little emperor's ears were callused, and he couldn't help yawning. He asked the time, and suddenly found that it was almost noon.

Well, it's time for dinner.

"It's getting late, let's stop here today, let's go!"

The little emperor waved his hand to give an order, and after finishing speaking, he wanted to get up and leave.

Zhang Hong suddenly took a step forward, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, King Ming is coming today, please wait a moment, Your Majesty."

As soon as these words came out, the little emperor frowned, and his body that had stood up sank down again, and he sat back down.

Why did King Ming come here?

Didn't King Ming always dislike going to court?

Not only the little emperor had doubts in his mind, but many officials also had doubts in their hearts.

The little emperor sighed helplessly, and continued to listen to the reports from the officials below, feeling drowsy.

The little emperor tossed with Fushou several times last night, fell asleep late at night, and got up early in the morning to go to court. It is not easy to persevere until now.

The little emperor originally wanted to leave the court early and rest early, but he didn't think it would be a good time for King Ming to come, so he chose to come at this time.

Really pick the time!

Time passed by little by little, and half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

The little emperor had been waiting for a long time, yawning profusely, his stomach was empty, he was sleepy and hungry, extremely uncomfortable.

This King Ming, why is he still not here?
"Your Majesty, your body is the most important thing, and everyone is hungry, why don't you leave the court first?"

Fu Wan saw that the little emperor's face was different, so he spoke.

The little emperor hesitated and said, "But King Ming..."

Fu Wan said seriously: "Could it be that if King Ming doesn't come, His Majesty won't eat? Am I going to starve on an empty stomach? What's the reason for this!"

As soon as Fu Wan's words came out, they immediately aroused a lot of sympathy, because it was already past noon, and there were not a few hungry people in the hall, and many people were struggling with hunger.

"Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if we are hungry, Your Majesty's dragon body is important! For the sake of all people in the world, Your Majesty must not suffer from hunger!" the prince said in admiration.

Wang Zifu's words made many people think so, and Wu Zilan also said immediately: "Your Majesty, Lord Fu and Lord Wang are right, if King Ming is here, I certainly don't want to see His Majesty suffer, I suggest you disperse the court immediately! "

Zhongji said: "The minister seconded the proposal!"

Dong Chengdao: "The minister seconded the proposal!"

Then, more and more people raised their voices, and in a short while, at least half of the people in the court responded to disperse the court.

The little emperor nodded slightly, so many people seconded, this is what the hearts of the people want!
Or, disperse?
The little emperor's stomach growled twice, and he opened his mouth to speak: "Scatter..."

As soon as he blurted out a word, Zhang Hong stood up again and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, Duke Ming is already on his way. Duke Ming has something important to report. Your Majesty might as well wait a little longer."

The little emperor frowned, and his tone became cold: "What's the matter? Does King Ming want me to starve and wait with all the officials?"

After taking two steps forward, he came to Zhang Hong's side and asked, "Taiwei Zhang, if King Ming has something important to do, he should report it to the court early in the morning. What time is it now? It's past noon! King Ming is only here now. What important matter can there be? Furthermore, even if King Ming really has something important to do, His Majesty cannot be allowed to endure hunger and burden here! Your Majesty is a man of gold, if there is any damage because of it, can you take it? King Ming can take it ?"

Zhang Hong's face turned cold, and he looked closely at Fu Wan, intending to say something, but he didn't know how to refute.

On the side, Zhang Zhao stood up in time and said, "Your Majesty, Taiwei Zhang is also thinking about important matters. Since King Ming is already on the way, why not wait a little longer?"

Zhang Zhao had great prestige in the court, and when he opened his mouth, the direction of the wind changed immediately. Those officials who had just shouted to withdraw from the court suddenly changed their tone.

Wang Lang was one of them, and he only heard him say: "What Zhang Taifu said is true, King Ming never asks about government affairs, and now he came here in a hurry, there must be important matters to discuss, I can't let King Ming go for nothing, Do you guys think this is true?"

Hua Xin nodded and said, "My lord Wang is right. There are priorities. It's a small thing to eat, but a big thing for King Ming. King Ming is so eager to come, there must be something urgent!"

Afterwards, several people spoke up, and most of them expressed their willingness to wait and see.

Anyone who cares understands that the reason why Baiguan has undergone such a huge change is because Zhang Zhao's words have played a role.

Although Fu Wan and the others were still arguing, their voices were much weaker, because as soon as Zhang Zhao expressed his opinion, many people wisely chose to side with Zhang Zhao.

Without the support of others, Fu Wan and the others couldn't yell even if they wanted to. They were outnumbered, and their voices were quickly swallowed up by the "righteous words" of the officials.

Seeing this, the little emperor couldn't say anything more, waved his hand, and sighed softly: "In that case, I will wait for a while."

The sun moves from east to west, and the time passes by every minute and every second.

The little emperor waited hard for King Ming, but he still didn't even see a person. After a long time, many people couldn't sit still.

"Your Majesty, I have been waiting for a full hour. The Palace of Duke Ming is not far from the court hall. Even if Duke Ming wants to leave, he should come here. However, since he has not seen anyone for so long, it can be seen that Duke Ming probably won't come. I suggest you disperse the court immediately!"

Among the officials, Fu Wan took a step forward and said in a deep voice.

Fu Wan was really hungry. He didn't know what it meant to put his chest on his back before, but now he deeply understands how uncomfortable it is to be hungry!
Moreover, the reason for starvation is so absurd. In order to wait for a warlord who has no sense of time, all civil and military officials and the emperor must wait together.

Even if this matter is not spread out, Fu Wan would feel ashamed and throw it at his grandma's house. If it is widely announced one day, wouldn't he become the laughing stock of the world?

Therefore, Fu Wan couldn't bear it anymore, and he joined forces with Wang Zifu and others to speak out to disperse the court, and at the same time pointed the finger of criticism at Liu Gan.

He actually lied and made the emperor and all the officials wait!
This King Ming is really too much!
Perhaps it was really too long a wait. Among all the officials, the voices of disbanding the court gradually became louder. At the end, few people wanted to starve and wait.

Seeing more and more people calling for the court to disperse, and the little emperor was extremely hungry, he glanced at Zhang Zhao and asked, "Teacher Zhang, when will King Ming come over?"

Zhang Zhao stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, there must be some reason for the delay in King Ming's coming, or there must be a temporary delay. As far as I know, King Ming has always followed his word. Since he said he would come today, he will definitely come today." It will be there, I might as well wait patiently, I can take advantage of this opportunity to deal with the spread of the epidemic in Xuzhou!"

Fu Wan said coldly: "Zhang Taifu's words are wrong. You said that the king will come, but I have been waiting for such a long time. How have I ever seen the figure of King Ming? There is not even a person to spread the word! Is King Ming going to act like this? Does Your Majesty take it seriously? If King Ming arrives at night, will I have to wait until night! Does Your Majesty have to wait until night?"

"Your Majesty!" Wang Zifu stood up and said in a deep voice: "Ming Wang said that he would not come, causing His Majesty to wait for an hour in vain. This is a crime of deceiving the emperor. Your Majesty is magnanimous and will not blame you, but you can't let Ming Wang disturb the court. It is recommended to disperse the court immediately, and we can discuss things tomorrow!"

"The crime of deceiving the emperor, disturbing the imperial court, and Wang Zifu, how dare you say it!" Zhang Hong responded coldly, glaring at Wang Zifu from a distance.

Wang Zifu snorted coldly: "Why don't you dare, since Duke Ming dares to do it, does he care what other people say?"

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and at this moment a voice suddenly came, and the hall suddenly became completely silent.

"Oh, what kind of person did this king do? Can Lord Wang talk to this king!"

Under the attention of all the people, Liu Gan stepped forward suddenly. When he spoke, his face was half a smile, and his eyes shone slightly.

When Wang Zifu saw him, he was stunned and dumbfounded, and stood on the spot in a daze.
