C13 Fainted

Xin was the servant of the Noble Consort Lan, so naturally, she didn't want Yun Moxi to have a good time. She personally watched over her, and even if Madam Yun and Yue wanted to help her, they couldn't do anything.

Madam Yun had already recovered from her injuries, and with her delicate body, it would take two hours for her to kneel on the ground.

However, Yue and her were both here, and even if they wanted to ask the Emperor for help, they couldn't do anything. They could only hope that Eunuch Fengde could inform the Emperor.

However, Madam Yun was wrong. The current Yun Moxi was no longer that delicate and beautiful young lady, but a wild fox that would behave atrociously in the mountains. To her, this kind of scorching sun was nothing.

"Worthy Lady Yun, the sway is quite worth it. As the saying goes, if you stand, you will have a posture. If you kneel, you will naturally have a kneeling posture."

Yun Moxi glared fiercely at Xin, "Humph, what a bitch! When I recover my magic, I will teach you a lesson."

When Fengde arrived at the Heaven Hall, Nangong Shen looked at the group of ministers below with a cold expression. A group of old foxes, they couldn't even say a word when they were in the middle of a political affair. Usually, they would chatter non-stop.

"Lord Lan, Lord Lin, the River of Hexi is currently in serious trouble, and the common people are living in misery. Why don't you tell me how to deal with this?"

He glanced at the memorial in his hand, then looked up coldly at the two ministers in the lead. The younger one was the current Minister, Lin Zheng, and the older one was Lan Ruxue's father, the current Great General.

The two people who were called out looked at each other in dismay. No one had expected that the flood in Hexi this year would be so severe that it would alarm Nangong Shen.

"Your Majesty, the only thing we can do now is to open the barn."

Lin Zheng was the first to speak, but he was opposed by Great General Lan.

"No, we can't open the barn now. The foreign races on the border are making their moves and harassing the southwest border. If the soldiers don't have the support of the grain, how can they fight?"

Lin Zheng snorted. Lan Zhan, this old man, had already surrendered to the foreign races on the border. How could he say that they were disturbing them? In his opinion, he was just trying to monopolize the grain.

"Then according to Great General's opinion, are we going to let the people of the river go?" The civil servants and the generals had always been at odds with each other, so it was the same between Lin Zheng and Lan Zhan.

Nangong Shen supported his face with one hand and knocked on the dragon throne with the other.

Lan Zhan held more than half of the military power, and he had the suspicion that he was overstepping his authority. Lin Zheng was originally one of his royal uncle's supporters.

"Yesterday, the two of you wrote a letter to me asking me not to favor the Worthy Lady Yun. Every word of yours is like a gem. Why are you so hard on the people of Hexi now?"

Nangong Shen's words made Lin Zheng and Lan Zhan embarrassed. They were both ministers, but they didn't expect that Nangong Shen, who had just stepped out of the school, would be so merciless.

"Your majesty..."

"Official Lan is right. The border needs to be stabilized, but the people of Hexi are also citizens of the Northern Kingdom, so we can't ignore them."

After Lan Zhan heard Nangong Shen's words, his expression became even more unsightly. Why did this young emperor want to seize his power?

"But Official Lin, if I remember correctly, last month, I had already ordered people to distribute relief money. Why is the disaster in Hexi still so severe?"

"This... The flood this year is abnormally severe."

Lin Zheng suddenly spoke with a lack of confidence.

The young emperor who was sitting on the throne had already seen the reactions of the two people below him. Hmph, two old foxes, did they really think that he was still the same Nangong Shen?

Feng Deng had been sitting on the throne for quite a while, but he had yet to report the situation outside to him.

"Official Lin, since the relief money has been distributed, I hope to see the memorial that will alleviate the disaster in a few days." Since Nangong Shen had already said so, Lin Zheng naturally did not say anything else. Although Nangong Shen's wings had yet to fully form, his ability and methods were not inferior to the late emperor.

"Yes, I will follow your orders."

"As for the Great General's words, why is no one reporting this matter to me?"

Nangong Shen looked at Lan Zhan with a smile that was not a smile.

Lan Zhan's expression was indescribable as he slowly said, "These are all small matters. The Emperor has a lot of things to deal with, so I dare not disturb you. I will only add to the Emperor's troubles."

Humph!

Nangong Shen snorted coldly in his heart. What a good word. I dare not disturb you.

"Your Excellency, you have put in a lot of effort. We have a minister like you in our country, so we don't need to worry about you."

"This is my duty." Lan Zhan replied to Nangong Shen's words.

Lin Zheng was a civil official, and he used to be a member of another faction. Now that his daughter had entered the palace and had not obtained any love, he did not refute.

"Your Majesty, before I entered the palace, I had already ordered someone to prepare my luggage and decided to go to Hexi to deal with the flood."

When Nangong Shen heard this, he was slightly surprised. This old man could actually do this? After recovering from his surprise, he changed his clothes and said with a smile, "In that case, I will have to trouble you to make a trip. It is the fortune of the people to have a minister like you in our country."

"Alright, since Lord Lin has decided to personally go to Hexi to deal with the flood, then let's withdraw from the court."

"Your Majesty."

Fengde went up and whispered a few words into his ear. Nangong Shen's expression changed as he coldly looked at him and quickly left the Heaven Hall.

Yun Moxi thought that she had grown up in the mountains and that she was used to being punished to kneel. Furthermore, they were foxes that relied on absorbing the essence of the sun and moon to cultivate.

However, she forgot that she was not only a human but also a weak human. She could not withstand the scorching sun.

In less than two hours, her head was covered in sweat and she felt dizzy.

She did not give up and tried to use her finger to cast a spell to get away, but it was still useless.

She struggled to open her eyes. It seemed that she was going to become a fox today. If she had known this would happen, she would have followed her brothers and sisters to cultivate properly.

"Worthy Lady." Madam Yun and Yue could not bear to watch anymore, so they went up and wiped her sweat with their sleeves.

However, Yun Moxi felt that her consciousness had already started to blur. When she tried to open her mouth to say something, her vision suddenly went black and she lost consciousness.

"Worthy Lady, Worthy Lady."

Xin was also shocked when she saw this. She did not expect this Worthy Lady to be so delicate. She had only kneeled for a while before she passed away.

Nangong Shen came over and saw that Yun Moxi had already lost consciousness. He went up and picked her up, kicked Xin away, and said coldly, "You better pray that Worthy Lady Yun is fine, otherwise, you won't be able to keep your life." After saying that, he carried her and walked back to the Cloud Palace with big strides. Fengde had already brought the imperial doctor over.

The imperial doctor went up to take a pulse and said, "Your Majesty, Worthy Lady Yun's body is fine. It's just that her foundation is weak. She fainted because she was exposed to the sun for too long."
