Chapter 85
At sunset, the sky is like a melting pot, swallowing thousands of clouds and spitting out a red-gold sky.

A majestic majestic city, stretching across mountains and rivers, like a giant beast, comes out of the Luohe River and leans against Mount Tai, with towering horns, smashing into the sky the sunset glow.

On Mount Tai, countless glazed tiles are lined up one by one like dragon scales, converging the sky full of colors. This is the "Eastern Palace", where the Son of Heaven hovers in spring and summer.

In front of the eight twilight drums like city gates, a one-foot-tall strongman looks like a god-man, with bronzed muscles stretched out, beating a sledgehammer of ten thousand catties, making the sound of thunder, washing between the world.

Ministers with silver seals and green ribbons filed out from the Qianqing Hall.

"Scholar Xu, the Queen of Heaven is summoning you at the Hall of Phoenixes."

A eunuch dressed in black said respectfully.

Elder Xu Ge looked serious, he had already guessed the reason why the Queen of Heaven summoned him.

"Lead the way."

In the Zhou dynasty, the central court was divided into three provinces and six ministries, and four pillars were set up outside it, which were respectively conquering the south, conquering the north, conquering the west, conquering the east, establishing a government system, resting with the country, and rewarding martial arts.

After Emperor Wu, Emperor Wen ruled over the country. In order to balance civil and military affairs, another three elders were set up.

But now the Holy Queen hangs down the curtain and adds the post of "Walking in the Phoenix Hall", avoiding internal and external taboos, and manipulating the world between applause.

There is a saying that "Writing is not the elder of the pavilion, but the policy is based on the phoenix".

The Qifeng Hall is not conspicuous, it stands next to the imperial study room, according to the standard, only the gold-plated bird pictures are used, and the people at the bottom thought it was the place where the Queen of Heaven worked, so they wanted to add dragon and phoenix patterns.

But being reprimanded by the Queen of Heaven, several eunuchs who made this proposal were executed with sticks. In the end, the servants had no choice but to use the swan pattern to show the virtue of the Queen of Heaven, and for a while the court was full of civil and military praises.

It's early spring, and the weather is still a bit cold, but the heater in Qifeng Palace is born from the veins of the earth, not only the four seasons are like spring, but also full of aura.

Hundreds of flowers are blooming in the hall, among which the peony is the most respected flower, which is the queen's favorite flower.

Following the eunuch into the cabinet, the curtain had already been drawn in the hall, the young emperor sat on the east, and the empress of heaven faced to the west. Behind the curtain made of big pearls, one could vaguely see the empress' holy face.

Although she is nearly forty years old today, she is still the most beautiful woman in the world. This is not flattery, but the most sincere thought of everyone who has seen the Queen of Heaven. Therefore, when seeing foreign ministers, the Queen of Heaven uses a curtain to block it.

"I have seen the emperor, I have seen the queen."

Old Xu Ge cupped his hands and said.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was extremely generous to civil and military affairs. Except for those grand ceremonies, the silver seal with green ribbon would not kneel to the emperor.

The young emperor is very handsome, his facial features are very similar to Emperor Wen's, and he has inherited the inheritance of the queen of heaven. At first glance, he thought he was a daughter of some family, but of course no one dared to say this.

The young emperor timidly glanced at his mother's queen, seeing that her mother had not moved, so he said, "Give me a seat, Mr. Xu Ge will wait here for a while, and the other elders will come soon."

After Xu Ge bowed his hands and thanked the emperor again, he sat on a pitch-black gilt sandalwood stool with half empty buttocks. The rules inside the palace are no better than those outside the palace. more tired.

Fortunately, Elder Xu Ge was not made to wait for long. After a while, the other two elders, Zhengxi, and Zhengdong, two national pillars, filed in.

As for the two national pillars of Zhengbei and Zhengnan, one must guard against the Mongolian country in the north, and the other must guard against the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River in the south.

Seeing that everyone was here, the young emperor looked to the west, "Mother, all the ministers are here."

"Since everyone is here, let's discuss everything."

Tianhou's voice was clear and clear, like a secluded spring in a mountain stream, falling on the ring pendant, making a crisp sound.

Elder Xu Ge cupped his hands and said, "Dare to ask the Empress Dowager, but what about the five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River conspiring to build a new mansion?"

"Conspiracy?" Tianhou chuckled lightly, pressed her hands on the phoenix chair with her purple-gold armor, and leaned forward, "Everyone in the world knows about it, do you still need to conspire? Do you really have to wait until tomorrow?" Played on the censor's platform, and the crimes are written in a big book, so you can reflect it?"

Hearing this, several elders did not dare to continue sitting in their chairs, they got up quickly, cupped their hands and said, "The ministers are incompetent, and the emperor will be ashamed if the ministers are in power."

Tianhou leaned back again, waved her hands with a sleepy expression, "Okay, we've worked together for so long, we don't need to do superficial articles anymore, and now come up with a solution."

The Hall of Phoenixes fell into a long silence.

In today's situation, there is no rule of thumb to resolve it. The five surnames in the south of the Yangtze River will almost write rebellion on their faces. The only solution for the present is to send troops to conquer.

But the great affairs of the country, only worship and Rong.

Who can conquer Jiangnan?

Who dares to conquer Jiangnan?
Back then, No. 1 in the world was on the Mingcang River, and even Emperor Wu, who was shining through the ages, couldn't make it through. Who among them could make it through?
The five important ministers of the country froze in place and did not speak.

Suddenly, a unicorn tribute teacup with purple gold cloud patterns flew out from behind the curtain, and the teacup fell heavily on the ground, and the splashed tea was covered with broken porcelain, like a flower blooming on the ground.

"Quiet the Queen of Heaven!"

The five ministers couldn't stand anymore and knelt on the ground. They really should kneel. Now that the country is in turmoil and the chaotic ministers are in power, they, as the governors, can't come up with any solution.

"Do you know why I'm angry?"

Tianhou Qingjun's voice continued to come from behind the bead curtain without any ups and downs.

"I'm not angry with the rebellious officials. If there are not many people who want to take this position in such a huge country, it will seem that the country is cheap."

"I'm not angry with Cui Mingcang Hengjiang, he is No. 1 in the world, before no one kicks him down from that position, he should be arrogant and domineering."

"But I'm angry with you! Before the battle starts, you will be timid. How can you be brave to millions of heroes when you go into battle? Sweep the world for the emperor and this palace?!"

"Don't worry, when the war breaks out in the future, the emperor will die in the country. In case the collapse of the mountains and rivers is unstoppable, the law of heaven will indeed turn around. I will definitely come to the front line and die before you!"

There was a chilling silence in the Hall of Phoenixes, and no one dared to breathe, as if it was a sin to breathe now.

When the young emperor heard this, his eyes turned red, "I am the emperor, and I will die before my mother."

How could the few people present bear such heavy words.

I saw the Zhengxi Guozhu wanting to burst into tears, and clasped his fists and said, "Why did the Holy Queen say that? I, the Taishi family, have received the grace of the country. Is it the generation who lives in idling? That traitor of the Cui family will take a step forward!"

When Zhengxi Guozhu said so, the remaining four naturally did not dare to neglect, and immediately echoed.

"Okay!" Tianhou shouted, "I have the same mind in civil and military affairs, and the monarch and ministers work hard, so Cui Mingcang dares to jump on his river, and he can't jump out of this country, and the world is bright!"
