Chapter 262 Accident
Shen Chengzhong's words got the support of his two sons, and the best way right now is to wait and see what happens.

In the blink of an eye the next morning, before the people headed by Xiao Peng came forward to impeach Su Zhiyuan, Emperor Jing asked Kang Ninghai to read out the imperial edict he had prepared before.

As soon as the imperial decree came out, all the ministers in the court were stunned, only Shen Chengzhong, after being surprised, his face showed ecstasy.

No wonder he was like this. In the imperial decree read out by Kang Ninghai just now, Emperor Jing actually named him Prime Minister of the Right. Now, his status in the court is the same as that of Xiao Peng.

"Thank you my Majesty, my Majesty, long live my Majesty!" Kneeling quickly on the ground, Shen Chengzhong saluted Emperor Jing. It was only at this time that the ministers in the court came to their senses.

"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate!" Xiao Peng objected first, and he knew very well that the Shen family was used by the emperor to restrain the Xiao family.

The status of the Shen family was not as high as that of the Xiao family before, so Xiao Peng was not worried, but now it was different, Shen Chengzhong was named the right minister, and the power of the two was quite equal.

Not only that, but Shen Chengzhong's second son is still a general. Although he is not as powerful as himself in the court, after becoming the right minister, many things are uncertain.

"Why not?" Looking at Xiao Peng, Emperor Jing sat on the dragon chair. Although his expression was calm, his words carried the majesty of an emperor.

"If you go back to the emperor, Mr. Shen has not made any achievements in the court, so how can he be named prime minister?" Facing Emperor Jing's question, Xiao Peng did not flinch at all, he looked at Emperor Jing and answered.

"The Shen family has been in the court for many years. According to Shen Qing's qualifications, it is enough to be the right minister." After listening to Xiao Peng, Emperor Jing replied in a flat tone.

"In terms of seniority, many adults have been in the court for many years. If the emperor says so, I'm afraid it will be hard to convince the public." When he spoke again, Xiao Peng made up his mind to let Emperor Jing take back his order.

As soon as he finished speaking, ministers immediately came out to respond, Emperor Jing looked at those ministers who stood up, his eyes were full of coldness.

"Xiao Xiang's words are wrong. Although many adults have been in the court for many years, they are incomparable with Lord Shen. Let alone General Shen. I wonder which adult has a son like General Shen?"

Seeing the situation in the court, Su Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, took a step forward, and spoke to Xiao Peng. He said so, making Xiao Peng's eyes fall on him in an instant.

"What is the meaning of Mr. Su's words? Are you planning to compete with Mr. Shen for the position of right minister? Others don't have a son like General Shen, but you have one." With a cold snort, Xiao Peng said in a cold tone.

"Xiaguan does have a son who is a general, but his seniority in the court is incomparable to Mr. Shen." With a smile, Su Zhiyuan didn't care about Xiao Peng's instigation.

"In any case, once the imperial decree comes out, you are not joking. Could it be that Xiao Xiang wants to force the emperor to take back his order?" When he said this sentence, Su Zhiyuan put away the smile on his face, and his expression was very serious.

When he said this, Xiao Peng, who was choking, opened his mouth, a little speechless.

Indeed, now that the imperial decree has been issued, the matter is tantamount to a certainty. They say so, but they have the meaning of forcing Emperor Jing to take back the order.

For a moment, the hall fell into silence. The people who originally agreed with Xiao Peng immediately fell silent after Su Zhiyuan's words were spoken.

Shen Chengzhong knelt on the ground, seeing the silence in the hall, he looked towards Su Zhiyuan, he did not expect that Su Zhiyuan would speak for him.

"Is there anyone else who wants to say something?" After a long time, Emperor Jing opened his mouth and broke the silence in the hall, "What I have issued is an imperial decree, not to discuss with you. The adults who refuted just now have all forgotten their subjects. identity?"

"The emperor wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die." As soon as Emperor Jing said the words, those ministers who had opposed it just now knelt on the ground, and kept pleading guilty to Emperor Jing. Seeing them like this, Emperor Jing turned his eyes on Xiao Peng's body.

"Does Xiao Xiang have anything else to say?" Emperor Jing's tone was cold, clearly conveying the emperor's anger to Xiao Peng.

Emperor Jing was like this, Xiao Peng couldn't say anything, he quickly knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty to Emperor Jing.

"Since there are no opinions, from today on, Lord Shen Chengzhong will be the Minister on the Right, with the same rights as the Minister on the Left."

"Yes, Your Majesty is wise!" After Emperor Jing finished speaking, the officials immediately knelt down and saluted Emperor Jing. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, the chill in Emperor Jing's eyes dissipated a little.

"Let's go back to court." After giving an order, Emperor Jing stood up and walked towards the apse. Xiao Peng raised his head and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it in the end.

Because of a sudden imperial decree, all plans for today were disrupted. Xiao Peng stood up, glanced at Shen Chengzhong with a happy face, and then at Su Zhiyuan who looked normal, and then shook sleeves, and walked out of the hall.

Xiao Peng's departure did not affect the mood of the two of them. Shen Chengzhong looked at Su Zhiyuan and cupped his hands at him, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your righteous words."

"Miss Chen is very polite, congratulations to Prime Minister Shen." Cupping his hands in return, Su Zhiyuan smiled and said, in his heart, he was thinking seriously at this moment.

Su Zhiyuan always felt strange about what happened today. After all, the emperor was about to implement a new system. Logically speaking, this period of time should be the calm before the storm, but unfortunately, the emperor named Xiao Xiang's opponent as the right minister. It's nothing, Su Zhiyuan didn't believe it at all.

Although Su Zhiyuan knew about the new system that Emperor Jing wanted to implement, Su Zhiyuan did not know about the conversation between Emperor Jing and Su Qinghan.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Shen Chengzhong, Su Zhiyuan left. In the past few days, his son Su Qinghan was away, and there were some things that he could only ask when he came back.

"Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations, the emperor made the master the right minister." Such an important matter naturally spread to the harem very quickly, Hongxiu came in from outside the palace with a happy face, and reported to Concubine Rong.

At this time, Concubine Rong Gui was teaching Princess An how to read, because of what Hongxiu said, Concubine Rong Gui couldn't help but shake her hand, and directly destroyed the rice paper she was writing on.

"Concubine Mother, the rice paper is dirty." Looking up at Concubine Rong Gui, Princess An showed a puzzled face.

"An'er is good, it's the concubine's fault. Let's rest for a while, and then change a piece of paper to rewrite, okay?" Lowering her head, Concubine Rong coaxed Princess An softly. Seeing Princess An nodding, Concubine Rong answered Passing the brush in her hand, he led her out from behind the desk.

"I'm telling you what you said just now." Holding Princess An's hand, Concubine Rong looked at Hong Xiu and asked, Hong Xiu responded and repeated what she said to Concubine Rong...
