On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Chapter 203 There is a mystery~

Let Zhang Li and Lin Zhen play first, and talk about today's morning court.

Sima Zhong was in high spirits because his daughter was favored by the emperor. He walked towards the Golden Palace with his head held high and chest puffed out, gaiting like a powerful man. The ministers around him didn't know what was going on when they saw him like this, so the Minister of Works Song Zhenglin came over and asked.

"Master Sima, what's wrong with you?"

Finally someone asked!

Jie Jie Jie Jie.

I've been waiting for you to ask!

"Oh, it's a small matter. Last night, my daughter successfully received the favor of His Majesty."

"Really!?" Although Song Zhenglin didn't care much about Murong Yan's gender, he was really excited when he heard him say that.

After all, from now on, these rumors about His Majesty's gender will stop in the court.

Upon hearing this, Minister of War Liu Kaiwei also looked at Sima Zhong suspiciously.

"Master Sima, are you serious? This is no joke."

"Are you kidding? My daughter is the first concubine that His Majesty has ever visited. He even stayed in her bedroom all night and left at dawn. How could this be fake?"

"If that's the case, then your Majesty's gender..."

"Ahem." Song Zhenglin interrupted, "Lord Liu, be careful with your words."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Lord Song. However, I'm afraid someone is going to be unhappy now. With the death of Old Gu, the entire Gu family faction was hoping their daughter would turn the tables and become the head of the civil officials. But in the end, Lord Sima got ahead. Hahahaha, interesting, very interesting!"

Song Zhenglin sighed when he heard this.

"Alas, I'm afraid the more interesting things are yet to come. A large group of book friends from the public can't find their organization. The prince is almost heartbroken for them, and has repeatedly mentioned their location, but it is hidden by unknown people! Alas, Lord Liu, what do you say we should do?"

Liu Kaiwei waved his hand and said, "How difficult is that? There's a blacksmith shop in the 6 alleys of Beijing. They make 5 knives for only 11 coins. But I'm kind-hearted and can't bear to see the poor suffer, so I gave him 6 coins. The remaining 4 coins can be used to buy 2 sesame cakes. You can tell them later, okay?"

"Can they understand?"

"If you don't understand, then let your wife wear a Shuyou skirt and go out to seduce the prince, hahahaha."

"Fuck you! Alas, the prince was forced into a corner, otherwise how could he let a lowly person like you take his words for granted?"

"That's right, hey, we're at the Golden Palace, Lord Song, please come in!"

"Master Liu, please!"

Sima Zhong saw the two men playing guessing games with each other and had no idea what they meant.

Didn’t you say you would envy me together?

Tree skirt?

What kind of skirt is that? I'll buy one for my daughter. Maybe His Majesty will like it!

......

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"Everyone loves you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Murong Yan was in a particularly good mood today.

Not only did he use Lin Zhen to successfully prove his gender and shut Youyou up, he also completely eliminated the spies around him, and the palace would be a bright and clear place from then on.

When the ministers stood up, she couldn't help but shift her gaze to the Imperial Censor Sima Zhong. When the latter saw Murong Yan looking at him, he smiled shyly.

The emperor and his subjects have a tacit understanding, this is the highest realm!

"Ahem, my dear ministers, do you have any memorial to offer?"

"His Majesty!"

Liu Kaiwei stood up with a board in his hand.

"Your Majesty, the Left Prime Minister has passed away, and the prince is far away in Liaodong. I believe that Daqian cannot be without a Prime Minister for a single day, so I suggest that Your Majesty appoint a new Left Prime Minister to supervise the ministers."

Murong Yan nodded.

"Well, Lord Liu, what you said makes sense. I wonder if any of you have any suitable candidates?"

Censor Wei Tao stood up.

Her daughter also entered the palace, but was not able to get ahead of everyone else.

Besides, it is impossible for him to become the prime minister with his official position, so it is better to go with the flow and do a favor.

"Your Majesty, I think Lord Sima is very suitable."

Song Zhenglin said, "Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate. Lord Sima is only a third-rank Imperial Censor. A direct promotion to Prime Minister would be difficult to convince the public."

Murong Yan also nodded.

Because she had been sidelined before, she had never had the final say over the officials in the court.

Therefore, the only first-rank officials were Gu Yunting and the princely Lin Zhenxian. There were basically no second-rank officials, and the next rank below was the third-rank. Now, if I wanted to promote someone, I really didn't know who would be the best person to promote.

Because of Gu Yunting's death, the Gu family faction was leaderless. People like the Minister of Revenue Gu Zhongman, the Minister of Rites Luo Wen, the Assistant Minister Song Yi, and even the Minister of Rites Dong Zhongkang were all thinking about their own retreat and had no intention of attending court.

Therefore, those who dare to speak out now are basically officials from the Lin family, such as Liu Kaiwei, Wei Tao, and Song Zhenglin who later defected to the family.

Murong Yan was now in a dilemma and didn't know what to make, but after thinking about it, she didn't care.

Lin Zhen is here.

Just ask him when he comes over in the evening.

"Appointing a Prime Minister is a matter of great importance to the nation and cannot be rushed. You, my dear ministers, need to consider this matter after you return and discuss it again on another day."

"The ministers obey the order."

Liu Kaiwei stood back in the queue and gave Song Zhenglin a puzzled look.

Song Zhenglin looked at him and shook his head slightly, signaling him not to speak.

Murong Yan asked again, "What else do you have to say, my dear ministers?"

Now no one said anything, and no one urged her to consummate the marriage.

This is the effect Murong Yan wants to see most.

"Since there is nothing else, then we will withdraw from the court."

Murong Wushe shouted, "Withdraw from the court!"

An ordinary morning court ended just like that.

The ministers began to walk out, and Liu Kaiwei grabbed Song Zhenglin's wrist when no one was paying attention and said.

"Old Song, why don't you let me speak? Isn't it good for Sima to be the prime minister?"

Song Zhenglin rolled his eyes.

Such a person could actually become the prince's confidant.

I guess since Liu Kaiwei is alone, he is the only loyal one left.

"Lord Liu, the prince is not in the capital now, so we can't act rashly. It's just a prime minister, so it won't matter if he exists or not, but if we act rashly and support a political enemy, what will happen?"

Liu Kaiwei only wanted to save face for Sima Zhong, but ignored Lin Zhenxian's opinion on the matter.

But after thinking about it carefully, he also had some complaints.

"That's not right. Given the prince's personality, he would only leave this matter to His Majesty to decide, and would definitely not recommend it himself."

Song Zhenglin stopped and looked at the gradually clearing sky outside. He said sadly, "Is this why you have followed the prince for so many years and are still the Minister of War!"

"What do you mean? If I'm not the Minister, what am I supposed to be? Shouldn't military power be in the hands of our own people?"

"You!" Song Zhenglin pointed at his nose in frustration. "You, you, don't you have a Shangshuling position above you that's been vacant for years?"

"Yes." Liu Kaiwei nodded woodenly.

"That's what the prince left for you! It's your own fault for not living up to your expectations! Humph!" Song Zhenglin snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and left.

Liu Kaiwei was stunned.

Are you fucking mad? Why are you mad at me?
