Chapter 279 Rebels!

royal palace.

The old emperor slumped on the dragon chair as if he had no bones, looking at the ceiling with no energy, not knowing what he was thinking.

He was still dressed in the same outfit as the male protagonist he had seen before, his whole body wrapped in a black cloak, only revealing a pair of bloodshot eyes that were constantly flashing and peeking.

snort!

The dragon chair was taken off, and the graceful queen sat on a small polished bench and snorted coldly, obviously very dissatisfied with the old emperor's appearance of neither sitting nor standing.

It was a characteristic of the Xia Dynasty that the queen sat on a small bench to participate in politics.

That bench was passed down from the ancestors of the Zhao family, and its purpose was to warn the queen.

The Zhao royal family knew their problems, so they could accept the queen's participation in political affairs.

However, there is a difference between king and minister.

Even if she is a queen, she is still a minister of the emperor when she comes to the court and cannot go beyond that.

Therefore, Mr. Zhao will now place a small bench under the dragon chair.

That small bench was used by the ancestors of the Zhao family to remind later queens, letting them know who gave them their power and whose interests they wanted to protect.

I don’t know what kind of material the small bench is made of. The queens on the bench have been replaced one after another. The bench has been polished extremely smooth and has not been damaged for more than a thousand years.

The queen sat on a small bench, looking at the old emperor who was still sulking. A look of helplessness flashed across her face, and she coaxed like a child: "I know you always dislike that prime minister, but it's just that I used him before, and I also had to take into account the dignity of the courtiers, so I didn't let you attack him. Now that you've used him, won't I stop you from hitting him again? "

Hearing this, the old emperor suddenly sat up and said dissatisfied: "It's not like I can't defeat him. Whoever asked me to come up would have destroyed the old man's cultivation. If this matter spreads, the world's rebels will How should I be regarded? Where can I put my face, and how can I lead the rebel army?"

The queen suddenly felt tired.

If Lao Liu hadn't needed her to stay with the emperor to stabilize order, she would have taken the old emperor to the new world to reverse the technique.

Watching this lunatic go crazy all day long made her head feel big!

And this madman has no self-awareness at all.

The great ancestor "Zhao Xuan" was right. The qualifications of the Zhao family's children were indeed getting worse from generation to generation.

But this is normal.

Human talents and potential can only be stimulated in times of danger.

The Zhao family has been in power for more than a thousand years.

It was fine at the beginning, but internal and external troubles continued, so Zhao's geniuses emerged one after another.

There have been almost no wars in Daxia in the past few hundred years.

When people are free, they tend to become lazy.

It is normal for the qualifications and cultivation of future generations to get worse and worse.

In the end, even the old emperor could become an emperor with his qualifications.

This would have been unimaginable when Daxia was just founded.

But the old emperor was not the worst, what was even worse were his sons.

Only Zhao Yi, the sixth child with no qualifications, was able to nail the old emperor to the pillar of shame.

Fortunately, all the Zhao family are mentally ill and do not have high requirements for the qualifications of their offspring.

Otherwise, Zhao Yi's life must be very miserable.

In contrast, the talent of the left prime minister who came up from the bottom step by step can be described as excellent.

You must know that there are immortals and immortals in this world. If there were no masters in the court, those superior immortals would have made everyone in Daxia their slaves.

Therefore, when selecting officials for the Great Xia court, they must have not only knowledge but also cultivation. In order to prevent aristocratic families from occupying the court, the Zhao family's court formulated a law that as long as one can pass the examination as a child student, all subsequent training resources will be provided by the court.

The effect of this law is extremely good. After the Xia Dynasty has been established for thousands of years, the position of aristocratic families in the court does not exceed one-third, and these aristocratic families gradually grew up after the founding of the country. The old aristocratic families are only those of Kong and Wang. The home remains.

This situation was simply unimaginable in the previous dynasty.

Naturally, the rich and powerful families are not willing to be left alone, and the children from poorer families are also striving to rise to the top.

It is in this fiercely competitive environment that the left prime minister stands out.

The emperor is indeed a bit overestimating his abilities when comparing his qualifications with others.

But there are benefits.

As the qualifications of the Zhao family's children become worse and worse, the impact of the Zhao family's blood curse seems to be getting smaller and smaller.

During the heyday of the Zhao family, as long as the ancestors of the Zhao family started to go crazy, they would basically die soon.

Nowadays, the old emperor is almost sixty, but he can still retain a trace of sanity, which was unimaginable before.

"You don't have to worry about the rebels!"

The queen said with a headache: "You gave up your country to them. They want to build a temple for you. How can they scold you behind your back?"

Hearing this, the old emperor suddenly became anxious: "What do you mean, the sixth child doesn't plan to take them with him? If they don't leave, I won't leave either. As the boss, I can't ignore it!"

The queen's face became increasingly ugly, but she thought that she would leave soon, and that the old emperor would return to normal after he relearned his martial arts, and the couple would have to meet again by then, so she had a little more tolerance.

The queen patiently explained: "It's not that Lao Liu didn't take them away, but that they didn't believe Lao Liu's words at all. It's been more than half a year since the imperial edict was sent out, and none of those people have gone to Lao Liu to be transferred."

When the old emperor heard this, he immediately said proudly: "Of course! Those are my carefully selected warriors, so naturally they will not be fooled by your machinations!"

After the old emperor finished speaking, he suddenly reacted and glared at the queen: "You, you, do you know where my subordinates are?"

The queen suddenly rolled her eyes angrily.

The emperor pulled a rebel army outside, intending to overthrow Daxia and completely destroy the Zhao royal family.

If the queen didn't know about such a big thing, the secret spies in Xuanzhen Temple, Zongren Mansion, and Daxia Court would have been killed by her long ago, with their heads rolling and blood flowing like rivers.

In fact, the queen not only knew about the rebels, but she also sent people to secretly support them several times when the rebels were cut off from water and food. Otherwise, the rabble would have starved to death long ago.

Every time she thought of this, the queen felt tired.

Since marrying into the Zhao family, she has never had a peaceful life.

The whole family used different tricks to cause trouble for her every day!

"Sit down!"

The queen finally lost her patience: "Lao Liu will be here soon. How do you look like this?"

The queen frowned as she saw the old emperor paralyzed as if dying.

Then, the queen raised her hand and slapped the old emperor directly from the air. Skillfully, like a spinning top, she turned the old emperor to sit upright.

The old emperor sat in a daze, feeling dizzy, his eyes dull, and his face confused. He obviously didn't react.
