Chapter 311: Greedy and Corrupt Prime Minister vs. Tyrannical Emperor (22)
Three days passed in a flash. Yu Ci had been waiting for that person for three days, trying to find out whether she was Li Xuange. However, she did not expect that since that day, that person seemed to have disappeared and never came back.
When attending court, Yu Ci could see the face clearly through the distant steps in front of the palace and the crown, but because the other person might be in disguise, the image that emerged in her mind did not match.
There are also techniques in this world that allow one to change one's body shape, such as the bone-shrinking technique. It is not easy to rely on body shape to make judgments, and she had not slept for several days in a row.
I was so sleepy when I went to court.
This day happened to be the day when the envoy from the Qing Kingdom arrived. Yu Ci stood there, hoping to use the time to recover some of his strength.
I only heard an announcement from outside the palace, "The envoy from Qing Kingdom has arrived~"
All the officials of the Phoenix Dynasty stood straight. The civil officials held boards, looked serious, and stepped in four directions. The military officials released their murderous aura and internal strength.
The atmosphere in the court, which was originally full of arguments over trivial matters, became serious, fully demonstrating the demeanor of a great country.
No matter how chaotic the internal situation of the Phoenix Dynasty is, it still needs to show the proper magnanimity when facing this small border country.
Outside the hall, the first group was led by two men wearing simple restraints and shorts inlaid with gems and pearls, with a scimitar handle hanging beside them, and a woman wearing a long scarlet tassel and a ruby between her eyebrows.
Following behind him were two people, they were officials, they should be ministers of Qing Kingdom.
"Greetings to His Majesty the Phoenix Dynasty!" The four of them clasped their fists and performed the etiquette of their country. They did not kneel, which was quite arrogant.
The two in front are the masterminds of this incident, and they are also the prince and princess of Qing Kingdom, Balang and Baya.
When encountering foreign enemies, the officials were relatively united in their hatred of the enemy. Zhang Cheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who had once had a bad relationship with Yu Ci, jumped out again.
"His Majesty!"
He raised his hand and pointed at Balang, who had a sword hanging from his waist, and said, "According to the laws of our dynasty, you cannot bring soldiers into the palace. Should this prince take off his weapons?"
The eyes of the surrounding officials all fell on the scimitar inlaid with gemstones, with unfriendly looks. What did the guard who let them in do to let them in? !
Balang raised his mustache and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you are wronged. Although this knife looks like a knife, it is just to show off the combination of this suit!"
"It was inlaid with the finest gemstones from Qing Country, and was made by the best craftsmen. It took three full years."
"But... actually this is a wooden sword. It's not sharp and won't hurt people. It's just for show." As he said this, he pulled out the scimitar, and there was indeed a curved wooden blade inside.
Many of the ministers looked unhappy instantly. It took three years to make the wooden sword.
This damn prince is making a veiled accusation!
Could it be that he is testing His Majesty? !
Some people secretly raised their eyes and saw that Li Xuange's face looked a little bad, but he had a familiar distant smile on his face.
But he did just take a toy wooden knife. Could he blame the other party?
The minister's face flushed. "Even if it's a wooden knife..."
He didn't dare to say anything bad about the knife. If he dared to say anything insinuatingly, His Majesty would target him. He didn't even dare to bring up the laws of the Phoenix Dynasty.
A wooden knife is essentially still made of wood. If you use it to pressure others, it will make them look petty and cowardly, and they are afraid of even a piece of wood.
Yu Ci entered into a state of meditation for a moment, feeling the aura around her change and her cultivation speed slowing down. Then she came back to her senses, her mind quickly processing what she had just heard unconsciously.
He stood up and said, "Your Majesty!"
Yu Ci turned around and said with a smile: "Prince, what Minister Zhang meant is that a gentleman hides his spirit within and does not wear weapons on the outside. In our Huang Dynasty, from the king and ministers to the common people, everyone has a gentleman's benevolent heart."
“So whether it’s a wooden sword or a real sword, it represents war and killing, and they don’t like to be shown to the public.”
"And how does Prince know that a wooden sword cannot hurt people?" Yu Ci took two steps forward, eyes full of energy, and forced Balang back two steps.
He just felt as if he was embarrassed. Wasn't this a blatant insult to him that he was a barbarian from the Kingdom of Qing, someone who didn't know etiquette and wasn't a gentleman? !
He clenched the knife in his hand and said angrily: "This must be Prime Minister Yu, right? You are worthy of being the youngest prime minister of the Phoenix Dynasty. You said that the wooden sword can kill people, why don't you kill for us?"
You can't blame him for embarrassing him.
Yu Ci stepped forward to take the wooden sword, fiddled with it for a while, then took out a Qingguo silk handkerchief from his pocket and threw it into the air.
The spiritual power in his hand was activated, and the spiritual power knife was slashing.
Soon, several small handkerchiefs fell to the ground.
Yu Ci shook her head and said, "Excuse me, it is said that a gentleman hides his energy within. I am really not good enough in cultivation, and I am far behind the officials of the Phoenix Dynasty."
Balang looked at the handkerchief on the ground with a bad expression.
