Chapter 629: So Su Xian is so bad?

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Su Xian held his head high and walked past the prime ministers, walking to the front. A chair had been arranged there. Su Xian raised his buttocks and was about to sit down.

At this time, he suddenly found that the prime ministers, including Princess Lanling, were all staring at him dumbfounded.

Princess Lanling, in particular, had a strange look on her face, and her eyes were filled with various emotions, such as envy, jealousy, understanding, joy, etc. It was very complicated.

As for the other prime ministers, especially Qian Zhongshu, who was cold-eyed, and Shao Sikou, who had gray hair and beard, their expressions were even more complicated.

Su Xian grinned, stuck out his butt, and sat on it.

"Su Aiqing made a great contribution today!" The queen sat on the dragon chair with a smile on her lips, and after the eyes of all the officials fell on her, she said loudly:

"On her first day in Beijing, Su Aiqing single-handedly solved the food shortage crisis that had plagued my country for several months! A total of 500 million shi of food is enough to support the next season's food harvest!"

As soon as the Queen finished speaking, the ministers began to discuss in the hall. They all lamented that the past few months had been really difficult, but fortunately they finally got over it.

Su Xian stood up from his seat and bowed:
"Thank you for your compliments, Your Majesty. As a minister of the Great Liang Dynasty, it is my duty to relieve Your Majesty's worries..."

"..."

The Queen looked at Su Xian and nodded, then raised her eyes and found the Shu envoy shivering from the cold at the back of the hall, and said with a slightly gloomy expression:
"Su Aiqing doesn't know something. Just now, because of the matter of buying grain from the Kingdom of Shu, I and all the lovers were manipulated by the envoys of the Kingdom of Shu and almost collapsed."

"Is there such a thing?" Su Xian was surprised. As he slowly sat down, he looked sideways to find the Shu envoy and stared at him.

"Where is the envoy from the Kingdom of Shu?" The corner of the Queen's mouth turned teasing.

"Foreign...Foreign ministers are here." The shivering envoy of the Kingdom of Shu walked to the middle of the hall tremblingly, wearing only his inner clothes.

"oops!"

The Queen exclaimed exaggeratedly and looked at the Shu envoy in astonishment: "Who is it? He took away the envoy's clothes, big and small. Didn't you see that the envoy was shivering from the cold?"

The prime ministers instantly understood the Queen's intentions. They had just been severely oppressed by the Shu envoys, so someone echoed the Queen and shouted:

"Yes, who is so ignorant that he took off the clothes of the noble envoy of Shu in public... It is simply rude!"

"Your Majesty...everyone...actually...the foreign minister took it off himself." The Shu envoy felt his face burning, but there was no use regretting it now, he could only suffer it for the rest of his life.

"why?"

"Because...that python robe..."

"The python robe? Isn't that a gift from His Majesty? It cannot be accepted unless it is a minister of great merit...Why, has the noble envoy of the Shu Kingdom seen my python robe in Daliang?"

"No!" The Shu envoy was also a wise man and denied it directly.

"Oh... By the way, I heard before that the official heard that your envoy thought my Daliang's clothes were not good-looking, so he didn't wear them... It's rare, it's rare!" A prime minister teased.

"How rare is it?"

"It's autumn and winter now. If you don't wear a coat, you'll probably freeze like a dog... Your Majesty is really a warrior. If you say you don't want to wear it, you won't wear it. You would rather shiver with cold than wear it... Isn't this rare? Hahahaha... "

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"..."

The laughter in the hall shook the roof and lasted for a long time.

The Queen slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. The fire she had been holding in her heart for a long time was finally completely vented. She suddenly felt relaxed and comfortable all over!
Su Xian couldn't stand it, so he stood up and said:
"Everyone, please listen to what I have to say. After all, the noble envoy from the Kingdom of Shu is an envoy from the Kingdom of Shu. How can you let people starve and freeze when they come from afar?"

The laughter of the prime ministers stopped suddenly, and they all turned to look at Su Xian.

The Shu envoy also raised his eyes, rubbing his arms vigorously with his hands, and there was hope in his eyes.

Su Xianshun pointed at the eunuch standing in the main hall and said loudly: "I saw that the clothes on this father-in-law are quite good. How about... get one for the noble envoy of the Shu Kingdom to wear?"

"..."

After the words were spoken, the hall was quiet for a moment, and then burst into even louder laughter than before. Some people even bent over with laughter.

Eunuchs' clothes were given to Shu envoys to wear. Isn't this a reversal of irony that the Shu envoys were eunuchs?
Is Su Xian so bad?

But I like it... Princess Lanling couldn't help but smile, waving her sleeves to cover her smile.

……

Finally, the Shu envoy got a set of clothes.

But it was not the eunuch's clothes, but the first set of clothes provided by the post house after he took a bath in the post house.

The Queen is the Emperor after all, and she still needs to have some magnanimity. Besides, she also plans to renegotiate the grain purchase matter with the Shu envoys, so it is not advisable to make the situation too deadlocked.

Yes, we did get 500 million stones of food today.

However, the queen is afraid of food shortages, so the more food the better.

Furthermore, if the Liao Kingdom solves its domestic problems and sends its troops south, Daliang may not be able to provide enough military rations... These 500 million stones can only ensure that the people of the country will not starve to death.

To ensure nothing goes wrong, it is still necessary to purchase grain from Shu.

Of course, Daliang is no longer afraid of being manipulated by Shu envoys.

Dealing with the affairs of the envoys of the Outer Shu Kingdom, the Queen looked at Su Xian and continued to smile:

"Su Aiqing not only solved our food shortage crisis in Daliang, but she also uncovered and eradicated that big thief Zhang Huaiyi within one day..."

When the Queen said this, she still felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of the pain of being stabbed in the back by Zhang Huaiyi, and her face darkened slightly.

Su Xian got up from his seat and said modestly:

"Your Majesty, this is just a coincidence."

Soon, the queen adjusted her mood, looked at Su Xian and continued to smile:

"Su Aiqing doesn't need to be modest. Your talents don't stop there. For example, your previous methods of disrupting the Liao Dynasty, preventing plagues, etc. are all great contributions to the country..."

"I have always made clear rewards and punishments. Today, Su Aiqing's contribution must be generously rewarded! Su Aiqing, what do you want? But it doesn't matter."

"..."

Su Xian sat down just now, and when he saw this, he left his seat and got up...

At this time, he discovered that the queen's gift of a seat was a big pit. How many times had he repeated "get up - sit down - get up" for how long?
It would be better to just stand all the time and save trouble.

"To share your Majesty's worries, I dare not ask for rewards." Su Xian said loudly, and after thinking for a while, he added:
"My title is high enough, General Zuo Wuwei's rank has reached the third rank, and the palace, servants, gold, silver, silk cloth, farm, utensils, etc. that your Majesty has given me are enough... I dare not I hope you will be rewarded extravagantly!"

"..."

When the Queen heard this, her eyebrows furrowed. She always felt that Su Xian's words were strange. Since she said she didn't dare to ask for rewards, why bother listing a bunch of rewards?
The obsession in Nangong Wan'er's eyes disappeared in a flash. Just now, the Queen's words moved her. If Su Xian had the courage to ask His Majesty for her words... Maybe His Majesty would agree.

Princess Lanling looked at the current Su Xian and felt very satisfied. She knew very well that the current reward was only superficial. The Queen would definitely summon Su Xian privately later and agree to Su Xian's request to join the inner guard. That was the key point!

Shao Si Kou, with gray hair and beard, looked at Su Xian and nodded repeatedly. Now he only wished that he had not ruthlessly snatched Su Xian to the Prison Department...

The prime ministers of the Sixth Department of Shangshu, Liu Shizhong, and Qian Zhongshu looked at Su Xian with many thoughts in their minds, and of course most of them were jealous.

The envoy of the Shu Kingdom finally lost his cool. He stared at the figure of a young man standing in front of the wind that attracted everyone's attention. It was this person who ruined the good deeds of the Emperor of Shu!

After returning to Shu, he must introduce this person to Emperor Shu and Concubine Zhang...
