Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 285 Disrespectful
Emperor Jing sat at the top, watching Shen Chengzhong and Xiao Peng below him stalemate, a smile flashed in his eyes.

"The two prime ministers, please calm down. They are still in the courtroom. I hope that the two gentlemen will calm down." Su Zhiyuan stood aside, seeing that the two of them were about to fight at any time, he had no choice but to speak a few words of persuasion.

He was also helpless in his heart, since Shen Chengzhong became the right minister, such things happened almost every day, but the emperor ignored it and let it develop instead.

If this continues, maybe one day, the two prime ministers will fight in the court.

With Su Zhiyuan's persuasion, the two couldn't help but snorted coldly, and then looked away. Seeing them like this, Su Zhiyuan shook his head helplessly.

The stalemate between Xiao Peng and Shen Chengzhong was entirely because of the question raised by Emperor Jing just now.

Now it is late March of the lunar calendar, and at the beginning of April of the lunar calendar, the Southwest Tribe will go to Beijing to worship. For Xing'an, the Southwest Tribe is a small subordinate tribe.

However, even though it is only a small affiliated tribe, people come from a long distance and always have to receive them. Therefore, what kind of specifications should be used for the reception has become a problem.

After Emperor Jing raised this question, Xiao Peng immediately put forward his own opinion. He believed that since it was only a small affiliated tribe, there was no need to take it seriously. Stand up and raise objections.

This was expected, but Shen Chengzhong would refute whatever Xiao Peng said, and his opinions were exactly the opposite of Xiao Peng's.

Shen Chengzhong believed that although it was a small tribe affiliated to them, they had to be received grandly because they came from a long distance away. After all, Xing'an is a country of great etiquette.

So, the two quarreled because of this matter. If it wasn't for Su Zhiyuan's persuasion, they might still be in a stalemate.

"Su Qing, what do you think about this matter?" Putting his eyes on Su Zhiyuan, Emperor Jing asked him.

"Returning to the emperor, I think that although it is a small tribe attached to it, it has come thousands of miles after all. Although it is not necessary to receive a grand reception, we still have the proper etiquette, but it is just passable on the outside. inappropriate."

Listening to Emperor Jing asking himself, Su Zhiyuan was silent for a moment, and then he opened his mouth. The thoughts he said refuted both Xiao Peng and Shen Chengzhong, so as soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of the two fell on him immediately. body.

"Your Majesty, Xing'an is a country of etiquette, and our etiquette is comprehensive, which makes us magnanimous. Besides, it's just a few people from a small tribe, and we are not short of a few bites of food."

After all, they were father and son, what Su Zhiyuan said was very similar to what Su Qinghan said, after hearing what he said, Emperor Jing nodded.

"Let's leave this matter to Su Qing. Make sure to handle it properly so that people can't find any faults and don't think it's too much."

"Yes," Su Zhiyuan hurriedly responded when he saw Emperor Jing hand over the matter to himself. For him, it didn't matter what he did, what was important was that it was an honor to serve the emperor.

After the matter was settled, Emperor Jing said a few more small things, and then asked about the implementation of the New Deal. Su Zhiyuan looked at Shen Chengzhong, then at Xiao Peng, and saw that neither of them responded, so he stood up again. .

Originally, Emperor Jing handed over this matter to Su Zhiyuan. Not only that, most of the subsequent measures were also thought up by Su Zhiyuan, so Su Zhiyuan knew best about the New Deal.

The reason why he looked at Shen Chengzhong and then at Xiao Peng was entirely because Su Zhiyuan wanted to see if the two wanted to get involved, and now seeing that they didn't respond, he came out to answer.

"My Majesty, the new policy is still being implemented. Now the governments are inspecting and testing the applicants. If they pass the test, they will be sent to the states for a new test."

The New Deal has just started to be implemented, and the progress is now at this stage, which is considered very good.

After listening to Su Zhiyuan's words, Emperor Jing nodded his head, he knew that there was no rush for the New Deal, and the current situation was considered very good.

Having said all that needed to be said, the morning court was over, Xiao Peng and Shen Chengzhong glared at each other, with deep disdain on each other's faces.

Seeing the two leave, Su Qingyan walked out. In his heart, he was thinking about how to handle the reception well.

…………

"Princess, it's time for the beauty shop." The carriage stopped in front of the most famous rouge shop in the capital, and the little maid got off the carriage and spoke respectfully to the people in the carriage.

In response, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, the white catkin stretched out, and got out of the carriage with the help of the little maid.

There is a fence on the woman's head, so no one can see her face, but from the carriage, one can tell that this person is either rich or noble.

Holding the little maid's hand, the woman entered the beauty room, and after entering, she took off the fence on her head and revealed a smiling face.

"The princess is here, come here and have a look, how about this new rouge?" Seeing the woman's face, the shopkeeper of the beauty studio immediately smiled and greeted Jiang Yan.

In response, Jiang Yan walked towards the counter where the shopkeeper was. The wedding date was getting closer, so she came to choose some good rouge.

When she came to the counter, Jiang Yan carefully selected, and the shopkeeper called out from time to time to help her make up her mind.

Outside the Beauty Zhai, several horses galloped past quickly, and soon turned back, looking at the carriage parked outside the Beauty Zhai, Shen Hao's eyes flashed light...

After choosing the rouge and gouache, Jiang Yan asked the little maid to pay, and she took Mi Li with her own hands, and walked towards the outside of the beauty studio.

After leaving the Beauty Room, before Jiang Yan could reach the carriage, suddenly a whip flew out from the side, knocking off the fence on Jiang Yan's head.

"Ah!" Mi Li was knocked off suddenly, Jiang Yan was taken aback and couldn't help but let out an exclamation. She turned her head and looked in the direction where the whip flew out, only to see Shen Hao looking at it with a smirk on his face. looking at her.

"Isn't this Princess Jinyu? If you don't embroider wedding dresses at home, how can you have the time?" Shen Hao just came back from Qingshan. Some time ago, there was a riot in Qingshan, and Emperor Jing sent Shen Hao there.

Now that the banditry had been calmed down, he naturally returned to the capital. Unexpectedly, not long after entering the capital, he saw the carriage belonging to Jiang Yan.

Thinking of Jiang Yan's previous identity, Shen Hao simply turned back and waited for Jiang Yan to come out of the Beauty Room, and only then did the scene just now happen.

Looking at Shen Hao, Jiang Yan's face was full of anger, not to mention that Shen Hao scared her, just talking about Shen Hao's actions just now was very rude, "General Shen, you are too presumptuous!"
