Chapter 163 The Cold Imperial Master and Her Cute Little Fox 12

The little fox's other tails were firmly placed in front of Mu Wanxi, as if building a ladder for her.

Mu Wanxi curled the corners of her lips, stepped on the soft yet steady big tail, and jumped directly onto the back of the little fox in one step.

After making sure that Mu Wanxi was sitting firmly, the little fox stood up, raised its head, and walked away shaking its nine big tails.

Everyone who saw this scene was dumbfounded. The hall was completely silent, and one could clearly hear someone gasping.

Censor Lu's face was extremely pale at this moment, his lips were trembling slightly, and he was almost sober.

What did the emperor call her just now? He called her the Imperial Master? What about my nephew Lu Zhen?

She...she actually stopped the heavy rain just now. This is definitely not a coincidence.

Thinking of the emperor's kind attitude towards her just now, and the fact that he had suddenly succeeded in praying for rain today, Censor Lu's brain was working rapidly.

But the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, with cold sweat streaming down his cheeks.

Emperor Xia Wen, who was sitting at the top, immediately put away the smile on his face after Mu Wanxi left, and squinted his eyes at Censor Lu in front of him.

He looked outside and saw that the heavy rain had stopped, his face looked gloomy.

"Imperial Censor Lu is in charge of all officials. How come I don't know about this?"

Emperor Xia Wen spoke in a gloomy tone, revealing a chilling coldness.

Humph, the Lu family is really generous.

A small Imperial Censor dares to say that he manages all the officials. In a few years, I am afraid that even I will not take him seriously.

"Your humble servant... Your humble servant made a slip of the tongue and was drunk, so he behaved inappropriately in front of the palace. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy."

Censor Lu immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"Humph."

Emperor Xia Wen snorted coldly.

Means unknown.

At this moment, no one in the hall dared to plead for Censor Lu.

If this had happened in the past, someone might have considered the face of the Imperial Master and come out to say a few good words on his behalf.

But now, the national teacher has been missing for many days and his whereabouts are unknown.

Moreover, they all heard just now that when His Majesty called him "imperial master", he was not referring to Lu Zhen.

Emperor Xia Wen narrowed his eyes and glanced at the silent crowd.

He knew these fence-sitters and old foxes best. They were used to protecting themselves. Naturally, he knew what they were thinking at the moment. He snorted lightly before speaking.

"Mu Xiangu is a disciple of a hermit immortal master. She came here specially to help our Great Xia country overcome this disaster. It was with her guidance that I was able to pray for rain successfully today."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole room was in an uproar, and everyone was shocked.

No wonder the emperor treated her with such courtesy. It was like this.

No wonder the rain stopped just now. Thinking of this, everyone understood. It was no wonder that the emperor was so angry. The rain that he prayed for with great difficulty stopped just because of your few words. If not you, who else can he blame?

There was a hint of sympathy in everyone's eyes when they looked at Censor Lu, and some even had a hint of ridicule and gloating.

The Lu family has always relied on the former national teacher to act tyrannically and have offended many people in the court.

Unexpectedly, I encountered a tough opponent this time.

Thinking about the title the emperor addressed that person just now, I guess the position of the imperial teacher has changed hands.

As expected, Emperor Xia Wen continued.

"Lu Zhen was the national teacher but he did not perform his duties as a national teacher. He was helpless in dealing with the natural disasters that had plagued Daxia for many years, causing the people of Daxia to suffer miserably.

Now he has disappeared for several days in order to evade his responsibilities. Therefore, today, I have issued an order to remove him from his position as the Imperial Master.

In addition, I respect Mu Xiangu as the state teacher of our Great Xia Kingdom. In the future, when you see Mu Xiangu again, you must not act rudely. "

Upon hearing this, all the ministers, princes and concubines present knelt down and saluted in agreement.

Censor Lu knelt on the ground trembling all over, but was shocked when he heard the emperor's words. He stood up and wanted to defend his nephew again.

His nephew left the capital to find a solution, and he also asked the emperor for permission before leaving. How come he is now evading responsibility and disappearing?

But as soon as he raised his head and saw Emperor Xia Wen looking at him with cold and warning eyes, what else could he not understand?

His lips trembled twice, but in the end he said nothing. He just lowered his head in disappointment, prostrated on the ground and said no more words.

Emperor Xia Wen stared at him for a long while.

“I think of how Lu Zhen has devoted himself to our Great Xia country for many years. Although he has no merit, he has worked hard.

Today, Lu Yushi is also innocent, so he is given a light punishment and a severe warning, and is sentenced to six months of confinement and one month of reflection, to serve as a warning to others."

The Lu family has also been deeply rooted in the court in recent years. Without other evidence, they cannot touch him...

Censor Lu's voice trembled as he kowtowed to express his gratitude.

But everyone present knew that although this punishment seemed insignificant, it actually had a lot to do with it.

In the court, things change rapidly.

Especially at a time when all the princes are vying to come to the fore, if he stays indoors for a month, I'm afraid by the time this Censor Lu comes out, the situation will have changed.

It is hard to say whether the Lu family will still have a place in the court by then.

Everyone had different thoughts and was calculating their own little tricks in their minds.

Some ministers who used to be on good terms with the Lu family were even more frowning, looking worried and thinking of countermeasures in their hearts.

On the one hand, they are eager to find a new backer for themselves.

On the other hand, he was busy sorting out his past dealings with the Lu family, trying to sever ties with them as quickly as possible, for fear of being implicated by the Lu family and getting into unnecessary trouble.

For a moment, the hall returned to deathly silence.

You can almost hear a pin drop.

At this moment, the heavy rain that had stopped started again.

Everyone tilted their heads to look outside. The sound of raindrops hitting the glazed tiles was particularly clear and pleasant.

Inside the Star Reaching Building.

The maids saw from afar a gigantic nine-tailed silver fox with a woman in red sitting on its back, walking slowly towards them.

They all widened their eyes and looked at each other.

They had never seen anyone parading so ostentatiously in the palace, and this mount was really too eye-catching.

However, they only dared to think about it in their hearts and did not dare to express it.

The maids had already received the news that the "imperial master" would stay in the Zhaixing Tower today, so after they finished cleaning, they went there early to greet him.

Strangely enough, the heavy rain outside stopped since we received the news that the Imperial Master was coming.

It was not until the Imperial Master entered the Zhaixing Tower that they came down again. They were all secretly surprised, but did not dare to make random guesses. They just lowered their heads and waited respectfully for the new master's instructions.

The leading woman, who was dressed in goose yellow palace clothes, walked up to Mu Wanxi and bowed to greet her.

"Master Imperial Master, everything in the Zhaixing Tower has been prepared. Eunuch Lian has personally ordered the servants to rearrange and clean the Zhaixing Tower inside and out."
