After breaking off relations, the prince's family regretted it for the rest of their lives.

Chapter 88 Dandelions are bitter!

There was a moment of silence, and then the officials all laughed out loud.

"Humph, Chen Zhuangyuan, are you sure you're not here to make fun of me?"

"It's okay if you really don't understand flowers. There are so many precious flowers. Why choose this kind of flowers that will make you laugh?"

"Your Majesty, Chen Changan is guilty of disrespecting the emperor. I beg you to punish him severely!"

The officials were the first to go wild, and even Zhao Qingcheng lost her composure.

Behind Chen Changan, he lowered his voice and said, "Top Scholar, are you lazy and don't know the difference between grains?"

Chen Changan shook his head: "I am a pariah, how could it be possible?"

"Both peony and orchid are precious flowers. If all else fails, you can always choose lotus, which will always work out."

Zhao Qingcheng was a little angry: "But you chose Dandelion!"

"This is a wild grass in the mountains. How can it be the most beautiful girl in the imperial court?"

Yes, what Chen Changan chose was a dandelion!

This is the imperial garden. How can you choose dandelions everywhere in front of the emperor?

Lu Fengsheng felt that this was a sure thing!

After all, he is his own son. The King of Huainan looked depressed and said, "Foolish boy, don't lose the people in the Huainan Palace. Choose a new one!"

Chen Changan ignored Chen Zhan and faced the ridicule of the crowd.

"Your Majesty, this is a dandelion. The root is cylindrical and dark brown, and the leaves are obovate-lanceolate. They flutter in the wind."

"The fur will itch when it falls on your skin, so many princes and nobles hate it."

"What are you talking about?"

Cheng Qinghe couldn't help it and said sternly: "Dandelion is destined to be no match for Jin Ruiqimeng, why don't you admit defeat!"

"For your father's sake, we can let this go!"

The King of Huainan must be given face.

"How can I be so lucky as to be the son of the King of Huainan?" Chen Changan swung his champion robe, "Lord Cheng doesn't dare to listen, so I won't say anything."

Cheng Qinghe was furious. This even involved him!

The emperor's face was gloomy: "Chen Changan, I want you to speak!"

"If you say it well, I will be exempt from punishment. If you say it badly... humph!"

The ministers were horrified, thinking that the emperor was determined to kill!

Okay, okay, I’ll just see how the top scholar defends himself!

Chen Changan was really bold. He walked up to Jin Rui Qimeng and took it off.

Chen Zhan was horrified. This was courting death!

"Foolish..."

"King Huainan!"

The emperor gritted his teeth and interrupted Chen Zhan's scolding.

"The golden stamen flowers are incomparably gorgeous, and their fragrance is intoxicating.

My dreams are often awakened by the fragrance, but when I wake up I realize it was all empty. "

Chen Changan sniffed the golden dream and chuckled, "Lord Lu, can you explain to us what this poem means?"

Lu Fengsheng didn't dare to speak and gritted his teeth secretly.

He said that the Golden Flower was a beautiful dream, and Chen Changan told him that dreams always end!

How does he explain it?

Chen Changan threw the golden rutile flower on the ground and kicked it.

Boom!

The footsteps were so heavy that the golden stamens were crushed to pieces!

All the officials gasped!

"Zhuangyuanlang, what are you doing!"

"The Emperor loves the Golden Ruihua so much, and you actually stepped on it and broke it. This is unforgivable!"

"Your Majesty, I ask that the title of No. 1 be revoked to serve as a warning to others!"

The crowd was talking loudly, but the emperor remained unmoved.

Chen Changan continued: "My Lords, what are you doing?"

"I know the golden stamen flower is beautiful, but other than that, what else is it good for? It can't stand the slightest bit of wind and frost."

"Open your eyes and look. I just kicked it lightly and it rotted."

"It's not just the golden stamens that are like this. Peonies, orchids, and azaleas are the same. If they're trampled to pieces, do you still think they're beautiful?"

Lu Fengsheng looked at Chen Changan with a sneer.

All the flowers are trampled to pieces. No matter how beautiful the flowers are, they can hardly stand out.

He wanted to see how Chen Changan ended up!

"Elaborately cared for and maintained in every possible way, even the beauty of the golden stamen flower needs to be set off by many fresh flowers. Is such a delicate flower really the best among flowers?"

"Look at the dandelions again. I'm stepping on them. I'm stepping on them hard. I'm stepping on them until they're broken into pieces!"

Chen Changan stomped his feet repeatedly, crushing the dandelion until it was horribly unsightly. He bent down to pick it up, and only the bare flower neck was left.

"It's ugly, and when I take it out many officials will think it's dirty, but is it really dirty?"

"Look at these stamens. They're taking root. Next year, countless dandelions will grow out, and it will become more and more prosperous."

"But what about the goldenrod? Will it still grow?"

"I am a dandelion seed, blown to the ground by the wind. I don't need anyone to take care of me, water me, or fertilize me, but I can still grow tenaciously!"

"To put it bluntly, if a fire turns the Imperial Garden into ashes, who will be left here?"

Chen Changan took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, it is obvious who is the best among the flowers."

“Dandelions are bitter. Very bitter!”

Xiang Jian frowned and looked at Chen Changan coldly.

Is Chen Changan talking about flowers?

It's nothing more than using flowers to describe people!

If the goldenrod represents the emperor, the peony and orchid represent the ministers, then the dandelion represents millions of untouchables!

Chen Changan was telling the emperor.

The people are the most valuable, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important!

Lu Fengsheng sang praises for the emperor, while Chen Changan did the opposite, and finally told the emperor a deafening truth...

The untouchables are suffering!

It’s really bitter!

"Your Majesty, I failed to educate my son properly. My fool plucked your golden flower. Chen Zhan is willing to take the punishment for my son."

Chen Zhan quickly knelt down and pleaded with the emperor.

Chen Changan sneered: "Your Majesty, I am the one who picked the golden stamen flower. I don't need the King of Huainan to plead for me!"

"Chen Changan just spoke out of his feelings and is willing to take full responsibility!"

Chen Changan knelt down before the emperor. He had thought things through very clearly.

If the emperor is really angry, it means that it is not worth planning any state governance strategy with him.

At worst, we can revoke his title of top scholar, but that’s fine!

"Chen Changan, you are so brave!"

Xiang Jian sneered and said proudly: "I understand the principle that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. I don't need you to teach me!"

"Hmph, let's have a feast!"

The emperor did not leave, but sat down in the pavilion.

Many officials sat down on both sides, with Chen Changan kneeling in the middle. The officials looked at him as if he were a monkey.

Zhao Qingcheng walked over: "Your Majesty, there are three seats left."

"Luo Qianfan, you sit at the end, and the position of Tanhua is justified."

Luo Qianfan bowed his head to thank him and sat at the end.

"Chen Fusheng, you sit to the left of Luo Qianfan, the runner-up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Only Chen Changan and Lu Fengsheng were left.

The emperor's eyes kept moving over them, and all the ministers were silent.

Whoever gets the last seat will be able to rise to great heights!

The emperor sneered: "Lü Fengsheng, I feel at ease when you sit at the top."
