Imperial County Magistrate

Chapter 612

All the ministers present fell into silence, and Liu Yanran looked at their expressions nervously.

She believed that all of you here were smart people. Previously, Zhao Kang had been given exclusive power, which affected the interests of them, the civil and military ministers.

As long as these guys are not idiots, they will never remain indifferent.

At this time, Li Yuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, sighed: "Oh, how can we be Zhao Kang's opponent?"

Liu Yanran is ecstatic!
Before he could say anything, he heard Zhang Mingyuan, the Minister of Household Affairs, lamenting: "No, Zhao Kang is a very popular minister and holds great power. How can we defeat him?"

"You don't know, now that the treasury is empty, he still forced me to take money to fight, but I couldn't get it, so he directly took away more than ten land deeds from my Zhang family and sold them to Others!"

"You said you would repay me in the future! This guy is becoming more and more lawless!"

"That's right!"

Weiguan, the Minister of Punishment, also started his own performance: "This man has gone too far with his military ambitions! What a pity that His Majesty is ill now and cannot act as a check and balance, so we can only let him do whatever he wants!"

"Although His Royal Highness the Prince intends to suppress Zhao Kang, he is still young after all. He is no match for Zhao Kang, an old fox!"

"Yes! If His Highness the Prince can also express his support for me, then there will be nothing to be afraid of!"

The civil and military ministers began to criticize Zhao Kang. They all gnashed their teeth and looked angry, as if their ancestral graves had been dug up by Zhao Kang.

Liu Yanran, the Pearl Princess, was laughing in her heart. She understood that her instigation was effective!
At this time, Taishi Yang Qianyun said quietly.

The old master's sharp eyes swept over each minister, and finally stopped on Liu Yanran: "It seems that you all think the same as this master, we have been suffering from Zhao Kang for a long time!"

"Yes!"

"We have to find a chance to drive him off the altar!"

"Yes, this Zhao dog thief is a national disaster!"

Yang Qianyun asked everyone to calm down again and said with a smile: "Okay, since everyone has this ambition, I can rest assured..."

After saying that, Yang Qianyun turned around and walked into the inner hall and said respectfully: "Your Highness, have you heard everything?"

Liu Yanran turned around and saw a richly dressed young man, about [-] years old, walking out.

His appearance is quite handsome, after all, he is the younger brother of Her Majesty the Empress!

The visitor was none other than Xiao Xuance, but unlike His Royal Highness the Prince in the past, Xiao Xuance was very imposing at the moment and looked at the ministers and Liu Yanran present with interest.

Finally, he sat down at the main seat and laughed jokingly: "I didn't expect that you, my lords, would hate the Imperial Master so much."

Li Yuan secretly said: "Okay! I didn't waste those days of rehearsals. Your Highness's acting skills are already superb!"

Only good opponents can unleash their potential. Li Yuan immediately knelt down with a bang and hit his forehead heavily on the ground with a sad voice.

"Your Highness! Unless Zhao Kang dies, our country will never have peace for a day!"

What a waste of money!

Looking at Li Yuan's red forehead and the dense bloodshot eyes when he raised his head, he was obviously extremely angry, looking like a loyal minister.

The ministers sighed and then started their own performances.Zhang Mingyuan also knelt down, then lay down directly and hugged His Highness the Prince's legs, making him burst into tears.

"Your Highness! In this vast country, the surname is Xiao and not Zhao! What is the difference between what Zhao Kang is doing now and treason!"

"When I think of such a big thief in the country, I am so frightened and uneasy that I shed tears all day long, Your Highness!"

It's just flattery, such a superb performance, I wonder how many people can stand shoulder to shoulder!
I saw that His Royal Highness actually caught the performance of these two movie stars and slapped the table!
Tea was first spilled all over Li Yuan, and then Xiao Xuance kicked Zhang Mingyuan in an "angry" manner.

There was panic in his expression, as well as deep-seated resentment. Such complex emotions were intertwined, but his words were: "Stop! You two rebellious officials and traitors, how dare you slander the Imperial Master like this! Believe it or not, my prince?" Behead your dogs!"

Then many ministers swarmed up, knelt down and begged, saying that Li Yuan and Zhang Mingyuan were not guilty.

He began to denounce Zhao Kang's dictatorship again, looking at the struggle flashing in His Royal Highness's eyes.

Liu Yanran smiled strangely. If there was no accident, the prince would have been unable to hold on any longer!

Just as she thought, Xiao Xuance suddenly sighed, his handsome face full of resentment.

"My lords and dear friends, please get up! How come I don't know that Zhao Kang has become a national traitor! But is there anything we can do against him? No!"

Xiao Xuance beat his chest sadly: "This Zhao Kang has no son now, and he doesn't even take me seriously. He never discusses anything with me. I don't know, I still think that Zhao Kang, the thief, is the leader of this country!"

"Even His Majesty was angered by him and became seriously ill. In the past, he restrained himself when His Majesty was around, but now no one can control him!"

Xiao Xuance was stunned and squeezed out a few tears: "Zhao Kang, the thief, you and I have nothing to do with each other!"

After cursing with grief and anger, Xiao Xuance felt relieved, but it was a pity that the stubborn old Zhao was not in front of him.

You can't point at his head and curse out!
Seeing His Highness the Prince's expression of grief and anger, the expression that almost broke his teeth, Liu Yanran knew that it was time for her to appear.

"His Royal Highness."

Xiao Xuance turned around, put away his sadness and anger, and became calm: "Princess, what advice do you have?"

It can be retracted and released freely, this guy has a deep scheming mind!

Liu Yanran commented in her heart and then said: "Yanran has a way to check and balance Zhao Kang."

Xiao Xuance raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Highness, please tell me?"

Liu Yanran said: "Your Majesty, the Empress, can issue a decree that Zhao Kang will go to court tomorrow. At that time, the envoys of the Zhou Dynasty and I will go to the palace to meet with Her Majesty the Empress."

"With Zhao Kang's current warlike attitude, he will definitely not agree to the peace between our two countries. At that time, we can join forces with all the adults to force Zhao Kang. With the power of Her Majesty the Empress and the power of hundreds of officials, Zhao Kang will have to bow his head!"

Everyone present rolled their eyes when they heard this. If that hob-sword meat would listen to our threats, how could he still be able to govern the country?
It is possible to kill a few directly. This princess of Qi is so naive.

Xiao Xuance hummed, and then looked at Liu Yanran: "This is a good idea, but Your Highness Princess, why should I help Qi? You launched a war in Qizhou, causing heavy losses to all countries, and now you want to ask for peace with just one sentence, Isn’t it a little too easy?”

Listening to Xiao Xuance's words, Liu Yanran understood that it was time for her to show sincerity at this time.

She said calmly: "As long as His Highness agrees to this matter, Yanran can make the decision. Starting from this month, Qi State will pay your country 100 million taels of silver as compensation every month for one year!"
