If she uses strong tactics every time, who will be truly loyal to her after a long time?

"You two...are you okay?" Nan Xi asked.

Taifu Ou let out a loud 'hum': "The cause of the death of the previous queen is unknown. We feel that it is not appropriate to hold the coronation ceremony at this time."

Prime Minister Qu also nodded: "Yes, if you want to secure the throne, you must avenge the former empress. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public."

Li Qingmo was sitting aside, leaning against the back of the chair, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, and occasionally coughing slightly. He looked as sickly as Nan Xi did when he first saw him.

[This guy is pretty good at pretending. 】

Nan Xi's eyes were always on Li Qingmo.

Taifu Ou and Prime Minister Qu were ignored, and they felt humiliated, and their faces became even more ugly.

"Your Majesty!" Mr. Ou's voice was high, as if he wanted to shout out all his dissatisfaction.

Nan Xi slowly turned around, "It turns out that the Master also knows my identity."

She rarely calls herself 'I'.

This was the first time Li Qingmo heard it, and she felt it was particularly suitable for her.

Nan Xi continued: "I need to remind you two that the blue bird has gone and the phoenix has come to this world. Now I have the final say here. Whether I can securely sit on the throne is not decided by the two of you."

She stood up and walked slowly to Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou.

"Qing Yuan was killed by Qing Ling, but you insist on asking me to avenge Qing Yuan. Could it be that you want me to enter the Blue Bird Emperor's Mausoleum to be buried with them?"

Bang!

Li Qingmo exerted slight force with one hand, and the armrest of the chair shattered into pieces.

Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou were frightened, and suddenly they remembered that this was not the male favorite of the empress in the past, but the living king of hell who single-handedly captured the Blue Bird and changed the dynasty.

Nan Xi put his hands behind his back, tilted his head, and looked at them with a smile.

Asked: "What's wrong with you two? Don't be afraid, he usually doesn't kill people."

"?"

Don't usually kill people?

So when is it normal and when is it not normal?

Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou screamed in their hearts, but they did not dare to really speak out.

It was only then that they really regretted it.

Why have you forgotten this living king of hell?

"Your Majesty, we are also thinking about you. If Feng Lin's name is not justified, I am afraid that the people will be dissatisfied." Ou Taifu's tone was much gentler than before.

This is finding a way out for yourself.

But Nan Xi refused to let them get their wish.

"Are the people dissatisfied, or are some people in the court dissatisfied?" Nan Xi walked around the two of them, his eyes never moving away from them.

She continued: "If anyone in the court is dissatisfied, just hold it in, because Fenglin already exists and cannot be changed. As for the two worried people who are dissatisfied, they are even more worried about it. All they care about is whether they can live and work in peace and contentment. As for the name of the country and who is sitting on the throne, they don't want to pay attention at all."

After a pause, Nan Xi returned to the dragon chair and sat down again, "You two have been in high positions for a long time and know very little about the affairs of the people. It is better to go to the people and experience it, so that you can better understand what the people are thinking."

It wasn't until Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou were dragged out of the palace by the guards that they realized they had been dismissed from office.

Not only must he be dismissed from office, he must also live among the people as a commoner.

When they returned to their respective houses, they were so angry that they wanted to curse.

But before he could even think of words to curse, someone came from the palace.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Qu. His Majesty's will is for you to survive among the people as a common people. If you use the power or money of the Prime Minister's Palace to survive, it will be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor and will immediately implicate the nine tribes."

The same goes for the Taifu Mansion.

Half an hour later, the two men met on the street wearing coarse linen clothes.

Xia Rui gave each of them ten cents.

"This is a reward from your Majesty. You two need to be careful with the flowers. Oh, by the way, if you really can't find a place to live, the ruined temple outside the city is a good place. Many people live there." Xia Rui chuckled lightly, Turned around and left.

Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou thought they finally had a chance to cheat, but they didn't expect that Xia Rui actually left two people to watch them.

Once they ask for help from their respective houses, it will be the crime of extermination.

This is like a sharp blade hanging above your head. If you are not careful, you will die.

The news that the new empress dismissed Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou and forced them to be sent to the private sector for training soon spread in the city.

Many people couldn't bear their curiosity and ran to the streets to look for Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou.

After two days of this, the two complained again and again, and their bodies no longer had the toughness they had when they confronted Nan Xi.

Someone in the court interceded for them.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou already know their mistake. Your enthronement ceremony is coming soon, and envoys from various countries will be visiting. It is really not appropriate to cause more trouble."

"Yes, many things in the DPRK still depend on the two of them."

Nan Xi raised his eyes and glanced at the people begging for mercy in front of him, knowing that they were all accomplices of Prime Minister Qu and Taifu Ou.

She chuckled lightly, "You mean, if there is a shortage of people in the court, the positions of Prime Minister and Grand Tutor cannot be left vacant?"

"Exactly."

Nan Xi: "Then you..."

She pointed casually, "Shilang Wan, you will be the prime minister."

Then he pointed to another person and said, "Liu Shangshu, come and take over the work of the Grand Tutor."

Suddenly promoted, the people who were still pleading for Qu and Ou shut up in an instant.

After all, no one is selfish. Once self-interest is involved, loyalty that is not very deep becomes insignificant.

Two days later, Qu and Ou, who were shivering from the cold in the ruined temple, still did not wait for the order to call them back to the court.

They have never had a full meal in the past few days.

The ten cents have long been spent.

In order to have money to buy food, they had to work as laborers or porters. They were so tired that they ached all over, but the wages they earned were not enough to drink a pot of good Biluochun.

Unable to hold on any longer, Qu Chang could only ask the two people left behind by Xia Rui.

"We already know the hardships of the people. When can we return to the DPRK?"

Outai was so hungry that he wanted to eat his own beard. He lost weight several times in a few days. He was not fat at first, but now he is almost out of shape.

"Fenglin has just been established. There are still many things waiting for us to do in the court. Go and report to Your Majesty. We know we were wrong and we are willing to be loyal to her."

A flash of sarcasm flashed in the eyes of the two guards.

Then he told them: "The matters you are worried about have been dealt with by the new Prime Minister and Liu Shangshu."

"what!"

Only then did they realize that their own stupidity had ruined their future.

It even hurt the family.

But it's too late to regret.

At the corner of the street, Nan Xi looked at the two people who were moving goods for people to earn wages, with no wavering in his eyes.

Shaoyao looked at it and felt very relieved: "They deserve it. Let them rely on their old age and act like they are old. They think they can threaten you, mistress, because they are important ministers of the former dynasty. It's just a dream!"
