Chapter 457: Hands off the shopkeeper
Those people retreated while apologizing, feeling relieved that the emperor did not blame them for their misconduct in the palace.
Hu Changgeng walked into the hall with his head lowered and knelt down on the ground.
Seeing that Xia Nanxing was never polite, Yuan Junyao pretended to be helpless and said, "Your Majesty, I brought the bouquet into the palace without your permission. I hope you won't blame me."
Xia Nanxing's eyes fell on Huaqiu. Even he had never seen such a docile beast.
As for what Yuan Junyao did, he just said it helplessly.
"Don't you know how to take it easy? I heard you made the little princess cry many times."
"That's because she loves to cry. What can I do?"
She shrugged helplessly, walked directly to the table, and said, "Brother, my brother Hu is here."
Hu Changgeng knelt on the ground, dumbfounded by the casual way Yuan Junyao and the emperor spoke.
He didn't even dare to look at the emperor, because looking directly at the emperor was disrespectful.
A look of confusion flashed across Xia Nanxing's face. He had obviously forgotten about Hu Changgeng. His eyes fell on Hu Changgeng, but he still couldn't remember him.
Yuan Junyao reminded: "The county magistrate of my hometown is Hu Changgeng."
The emperor is really busy with all kinds of affairs, so Yuan Junyao kindly reminded him.
At this time, Hu Changgeng also bowed and said, "Your humble servant, Hu Changgeng, the County Magistrate of Qingzhou Prefecture, Feng'an County, and Wanhe Town, pays homage to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
Xia Nanxing finally remembered this person, and at the same time, he also remembered Jiang Changxun.
It's a pity that Jiang Changxun died.
Xia Nanxing nodded, with admiration flashing in his eyes, and said, "No need to be polite, my dear."
Hu Changgeng stood up stiffly and stood with his eyes lowered.
Although Yuan Junyao and the emperor were very casual, he did not dare to be casual.
Xia Nanxing said, "I have heard Jun Yao tell you about what you and Jiang Changxun did. It's a pity for Jiang Changxun. Now the prefectural position is vacant. You can take the position of prefect after you return home."
Hu Changgeng was a little confused because he didn't know what happened to Jiang Changxun, nor did he know why the position of prefect was vacant.
But after hearing these words, I knew that something must have happened to Jiang Changxun. He stood there in a daze and even forgot to thank me.
Xia Nanxing frowned slightly, thinking that this person was excited and stupid. When he thought about what happened to Jiang Changxun, he felt a little unhappy.
He didn't know that Hu Changgeng didn't know what happened to Jiang Changxun.
Yuan Junyao reminded him, "Brother Hu, thank you."
Although the emperor did not mind the false courtesy between her and Shen Shaoyu, it did not mean that he would be so tolerant towards others.
Shen Shaoyu's eyes flickered slightly, as if he had thought of something. He said, "Jiang Changxun is fine, Lord Hu, don't worry."
Yuan Junyao pursed her lips, thinking that Hu Changgeng would definitely be sad if he knew what happened to Jiang Mingzhu.
Hu Changgeng finally breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed again, but not to express his gratitude.
"Your Majesty, I am not qualified for the position of prefect. Lord Jiang is fair and honest, diligent, and dedicated to serving the people. He is the most suitable candidate."
Xia Nanxing's expression softened, and he sighed, "I too had this intention, but unfortunately Jiang Changxun has already resigned. I will leave the prefectural position to you."
Hu Changgeng was stunned on the spot. He didn't know why Jiang Changxun would resign. He clearly had many lofty ambitions. He was looking forward to seeing the country become prosperous and the people strong. He also wanted to do many things for the people. Why would he resign?
So something must have happened.
Hu Changgeng had no time to be afraid, and he forgot that the person sitting at the top was the emperor.
"Master Jiang, what happened to Master Jiang?"
His face was full of anxiety, panic and uneasiness.
Only then did Xia Nanxing realize that Hu Changgeng knew nothing.
He subconsciously looked at Yuan Junyao.
He knew that Hu Changgeng was Yuan Junyao's sworn brother, and she valued him very much.
Yuan Junyao really didn't know how to tell Hu Changgeng what happened to Jiang Mingzhu.
Seeing this, Shen Shaoyu said, "Master Hu, please express your gratitude first. We can discuss other matters later. The palace banquet is about to begin."
Hu Changgeng wanted to know what had happened, but he also knew that this was not the time to ask in front of the emperor, so he kowtowed and said loudly: "Your humble servant thanks the emperor for his grace. Long live the emperor."
Yuan Junyao asked someone to take Hu Changgeng to Wanhe Palace first.
She and Shen Shaoyu also had something to say to Xia Nanxing.
Hu Changgeng followed the palace maid out in a daze, but when he arrived at Wanhe Palace, he found himself sitting in the first seat under the dragon throne.
This is a position second only to the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Empress.
Hu Changgeng didn't dare to sit down, because all the civil and military officials in the hall were looking at him. Countless pairs of eyes were either contemptuous, curious, or inquiring, which made his scalp tingle and he wanted to find a place to hide.
In the end, he could only stand aside and wait for Shen Shaoyu and Yuan Junyao to come.
In the Yangxin Palace, Huaqiu lay quietly on the side, doing nothing.
It's so boring to be out of space. It doesn't do anything but scare those two-legged beasts. It's not fun at all.
Not only did it scare the two-legged beast mothers, it also made them angry.
It really couldn't help comparing its mother with these two-legged animals.
It remembered the first time it met its mother, there was no fear on its face, only excitement.
That was the first time it was chased since it grew up. It had always been chasing other things.
"Nanjiang is already openly testing me. Even though I offered the Longevity Grass, they may not believe it. So, they will probably make it clear at this palace banquet."
Yuan Junyao's face was solemn, she could already imagine the turmoil that would follow.
Shen Shaoyu's voice was extremely cold, making people shudder.
"Then just sit back and wait and see who'll be the first to step forward and lose their patience first!"
Yuan Junyao looked thoughtful, feeling that something was wrong.
Xia Nanxing was more open-minded. After Yuan Junyao displayed her magical powers in front of him, he felt completely relieved and no longer had any previous anxiety.
"Alright, alright, it's getting late. You guys should go to Wanhe Palace first. I'll be there soon."
Shen Shaoyu nodded, but Yuan Junyao was unhappy.
Because it had always been her and Shen Shaoyu who were planning the strategy, and Xia Nanxing had actually given up, she couldn't help but ask, "Brother, you really don't care about anything now. This country is yours, not ours. Don't you have any ideas about this matter?"
Xia Nanxing said with a smile: "With you guys here, what else do I need to worry about? You've considered everything very carefully, and I'm very satisfied."
Yuan Junyao was really speechless. How could someone be so hands-off?
But Xia Nanxing sighed again.
"I am a dying man, with less than a year left. I only have a few days left to live, and I suddenly don't want to care about anything anymore. Once things settle down, I'd better abdicate as soon as possible."
Yuan Junyao suddenly couldn't say anything.
Never mind, this emperor is still quite pitiful, so let him just give up.
