C6 Don't Get Close to the Prime Minister

The morning sunlight was lazy and gentle. The purple and gold pillars in the hall were shining brightly.

Su Mann stood in the hall and looked at the Dragon Throne from afar. There was not a single person in the sky above the Dragon Throne. It had been like this for the past few days, so it was impossible for people to have peace of mind.

The civil and military officials of the court had waited for an hour and a half, but not even a messenger eunuch could be seen. This was not common, and no one dared to discuss it loudly. They whispered to each other in private. A man in front lowered his voice and said to the auxiliary general next to him, "Our emperor has not attended the morning court for a few days. It can be seen that the beauty of Yue Country is very capable." After saying that, he let out two dry laughs. The meaning behind his words was obvious.

Su Mann still straightened her back and did not move. The important ministers in the hall were already impatient at this moment. However, due to the majesty of the Emperor, it was not easy to act up. However, some of the old officials had obviously revealed anger on their faces. Some of them even called the princess of Yue Country the reincarnation of Da Ji in the throne room. Bewitching Master.

Even though the voice was extremely low, it still clearly entered Su Mann's ears. At this moment, the situation was pressing and she naturally would not stir up trouble. She turned a blind eye to those gazes that came to advise her.

When the previous emperor was still alive, she was most likely the one who dared to speak. Because of this, she had some prestige in the court. But ever since the emperor ascended the throne, from the initial love and trust towards her to the later extermination, anyone with discerning eyes could see the emperor's thoughts. It was merely to deliberately weaken the power in Prime Minister's hands. Even so, at this time, all the officials still looked at her in unison.

Su Mann looked at him with her eyes, nose, and heart. There was no change on her clear and cold face, but she was secretly mocking him in her heart. Even if the princess of Yue Country was the reincarnation of Da Ji, so what? Jun Moran's shrewdness was not something that King Zhou could compare with.

Since they could not get a response, all the officials could only bitterly withdraw. The morning court ended in such a strange atmosphere. Su Mann stepped out of the throne room. Suddenly looking back, the hall was still bustling just a moment ago. At this moment, there was only the golden and resplendent cold loneliness and the golden dragon throne. It was quietly held there.

When she recalled those past glory, they were all placed on that shining golden chair. Since the ancient times, how many people bled like rivers for it, corpses everywhere. She originally wasn't a greedy person, but she was born in an imperial family.

"Royal Father, if I can choose, I only wish to be born in an ordinary family. That way, I don't have to bear the hatred of blood, and I don't have to be in a dilemma."

Jun Moran had found out that she had been planning for a long time. Half of her life had been ruined. Other than not letting Qixuan and Yuan Jin go, there was nothing else in the world.

After passing by the Bright Palace, there was a huge pond of lotus flowers. The ninth month had arrived. The green leaves were cool and the jade wine was sold. There was a palace maid in plain clothes holding a small boat and pushing away the lotus leaves.

Su Mann suddenly sighed but she did not even let out a sigh.

Just as she stepped out of the main door of the Bright Hall, she saw King Jing and Jun Moxi walking towards her. They were dressed in brocade clothes, black hair tied up high, jade belt wrapped around them, and their slender figures were all elegant and handsome.

This kind of gentle and handsome appearance was not like that of a general, but he was the most famous Changsheng General in Great Yan. The barbarians who had defeated Western Liang this time were even supported by the people of Great Yan. However, this man had never been proud of his achievements, and his relationship with Su Mann was quite harmonious.

Perhaps it was because of her frustration, Su Mann wanted to avoid the people who came, but Jun Moxi's sharp eyes had already noticed and stopped her.

"Prime Minister."

Su Mann looked up helplessly. She bowed and said, "This official greets Your Highness."

Jun Moxi faintly smiled and only stopped when he walked in front of her, and said, "It has been a few months since we last met, but Shao Yun has distanced himself from this king."

Su Mann was somewhat surprised when she heard him call out her name. But after all, it was fabricated and there was inevitably a trace of discomfort in her ears when she heard it.

"This official was terrified and did not dare to do so. It is just that he is currently in the Palace. This official was in the same court as the Royal Highness. If anyone saw this official being so rude, what?" The official tone caused King Jing to frown again and again when he heard it.

"I know that you have been troubled by Lord Gu's matter recently, but Royal Brother has always been a sensible person. There must be a reason for him to do this, if he is really innocent. He was also an important official of Great Yan, so Royal Brother naturally would not make things difficult for him. But if Lord Gu was really colluding with the enemy and betraying the country, Shao Yun, you don't have to blame yourself. After all, the most difficult thing to guess in the world was the human heart, and the most likely thing to change was also the human heart. Even if I dig out your heart and lungs today, who can predict what will happen in the future? "

Su Mann knew that he had misunderstood, but when she heard these words, she still felt a slight ripple in her heart.

"Your Royal Highness's words are reasonable, but this official is looking for trouble."

King Jing saw that her eyebrows were relaxed and seemed to be relieved, so he smiled slightly. His eyes involuntarily looked towards the person in front of him. She had a pair of beautiful and bright eyes that looked like stars that had been washed by dew. It was clear and clear without any wind or frost. He didn't know why his gaze would inadvertently stop on her. They were clearly both men, so why did he always have a strange feeling when he interacted with her?

"Shao Yun, this king has returned with a great victory this time. I am in a hurry to see Royal Brother. How about the Bright Japan King holding a banquet at the" Wanbi Restaurant? "We haven't seen each other for a few months, so it's better to take this opportunity to have a good gathering." Jun Moxi still had a warm smile on his face, but there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Jun Moran already knew his identity. If he were to get closer to someone else, besides, the person in front of him was also the son of his enemy. How could she not be on guard? Didn't Jun Moran treat her very well in the past? It was only a matter of time before she lost her temper. She had already tried it once. She didn't want to fall into such a gentle trap again.

"Your Highness, you have worked hard all the way. There is still a long way to go. If there is nothing else, this official will take his leave first." Su Mann clasped her hands and bowed but her voice was unusually calm. Anyone could hear the alienation within.

Jun Moxi sighed sadly. He actually felt a little lost for some reason.

The wind suddenly became strong and blew up the black hair behind him. The tangled hair was similar to the current state of mind. It struggled slightly and felt a slight pain. It was inexplicably strange.

"Emperor..." Lee Mingde held the hot tea in his hand and looked at the young emperor who was reviewing the memorial in Imperial Study. He wanted to say something but stopped himself.

The Emperor had continuously claimed that he had not attended the morning court for a few days and there were rumors that the Emperor was infatuated with the princess of Yue Country. If he abandoned the state affairs, he would be reduced to the second King of Shang Zhou. But the truth was not so. He did not understand why the Emperor had such a reputation.

The Emperor did not look at him, but his hands did not stop moving. His expression was still focused. Seeing this, Lee Mingde cleverly shut his mouth and quietly waited by the side.

At this moment, someone outside the hall suddenly came to report that King Jing had come to request an audience.

When the Emperor heard this, his hand movements paused, and then he said happily, "Quick, pass it on."

Jun Moxi received the message, and his elegant figure flew into the hall. Under the dim sunlight, his embroidered clothes became more graceful and refined.

"This official greets the Emperor."

Jun Moran hurriedly waved his hand, "Quickly get up. Those false gifts are exempted. This time, you have won over the barbarians of Western Liang. Zhen is very happy. It seems that the reputation of the ever-victorious general of Great Yan is not undeserved." The two of them had always been close, but what he said came from the bottom of his heart.

"Quickly sit down. Zhen is just worrying about how long this show will last, and you happened to come back in time to save Zhen from the abyss of suffering."

Jun Moxi looked at the thick stack of memorials in front of him, smiled and said, "Is Royal Brother planning to sacrifice his appearance this time? Or is it that the princess of Yue Country really captivated by you and attracted the attention of all the civil and military officials?"

Hearing his teasing words, Jun Moran's face clearly turned green.

"Hmph, those officials in the court finally couldn't hold back and revealed themselves this time. Even if they were bored for a few days, it was still worth it. Zhen wants to see how long they can continue to be arrogant. I must seize this opportunity to capture all of them in one fell swoop." With a slight force on the brush, a vigorous and powerful ink dyed the paper. It was like a cruel judgement.

"Royal Brother's plan is quite good. Uncle has probably failed at the last minute. However, Royal Brother had met Prime Minister outside the hall just now. Could it be that he has come to speak to the Emperor?" Thinking of that indifferent face, that strange feeling flashed through his heart.

Jun Moran's face sank and he coldly snorted, "Moxi, don't blame Zhen for not reminding you. It is best to stay away from her. Don't think that she is loyal to Great Yan, and only has other intentions." His uncle was holding an army, and he was taking care of himself. He was trying to win over the officials of the court, and the border barbarians were getting restless. The remnants of the previous dynasty have reappeared, and they are both internally and externally troubled. In the end, he still concealed Su Mann's true identity.

How could Jun Moxi's clever mind not know what he was referring to? However, after leaving for a few months, it seemed like the dynasty had truly turned upside down. The bottom line was different, but he still could not deliberately distance himself from Su Mann. Even if it was as Royal Brother had said, she had other plans.

"Didn't Royal Brother always love the Prime Minister? Why do you say that?" Jun Moxi met his eyes and carefully caught every expression on his face. Jun Moran's eyes were deep and deep, and the coldness in his eyes could not be faked. His heart trembled, and he became even more suspicious.

"Moxi, in short, remember to stay away from her." Jun Moran turned his back to him, as if he was deliberately avoiding the matter of Su Mann. He changed the topic and said, "Zhen will hold a banquet in the Rong Palace tonight to welcome you. We will even celebrate your triumphant return. Don't be late."

Jun Moxi saw that he had no intention to say more, so he could only give up. In any case, there was still a long way to go. He would definitely not leave Yongjing for the time being, so he could just investigate in private.

Not long after Su Mann returned to the residence, the eunuch who issued the imperial edict in the palace followed her. Actually, she did not need to participate in the banquet of the Rong Palace, but Jun Moran deliberately sent someone to deliver the imperial edict, which clearly made her have no room to refuse. After sending the eunuch away, Su Mann no longer had the mood and played with Qixuan for a while in the courtyard. As dusk fell, she changed into her extremely reluctant clothes and headed towards the Imperial Palace.

The banquet in the Rong Palace tonight was similar to the banquet in the Emperor's home. However, there was less restraint between the officials and ministers. Fortunately, the host of the banquet tonight was a gentle and refined lord. Otherwise, he would have to spend the long night in such a depressing atmosphere.

But it was obvious that all of this was the same to Su Mann, as if she was being tortured. Jun Moran sat high and mighty on the main seat, holding the most favoured consort, Xue Ruyu, in his arms. The corners of his eyes fell on Su Mann from time to time. She could only sit upright and solemnly. One cup after another, drinking tea, she turned a blind eye to the wonderful singing and dancing in front of her.
