Chapter 1601
Chapter 1601: Emperor Xia Compromises Chapter 1601: Emperor Xia Compromises Jiu Xuanji and Lu Zhantang craned their necks to look.
The three of them finished reading.
Zhang Ronghua put away his things and stood up abruptly.
His eyes flashed fiercely.” I didn’t expect to catch a big fish this time!”
He walked out and the two of them followed.
Purple Extreme Hall.
The officials were like deaf deaf ears to what had happened last night.
No one dared to mention it for fear of being attacked by Xia Hou.
…
The sky outside was already bright.
The court session had not ended.
There were many things to discuss, one after another.
It was as if all of them had jumped out.
At this moment, they were discussing the matter of the western border.
It had been exactly seven days since the assassination of the envoys from the Nanman Kingdom, the Wind Clan, the Ancient Clan, and the Mei Kingdom.
Before Ning Yichen could give a satisfactory answer, he was taken down by Xia Hou.
Taking a step back, there had been no news for so many days.
Even if nothing happened last night, the outcome could not be changed.
There was no way to be amicable.
They could only fight.
After going through the Wu Tribe, the Jin Country, and the Five Elements Tribe, some of the generals had been conferred the title of Marquis Yaozu, and their power had increased.
Among them, Xu Cheng ‘an was the representative, and he had almost reached the sky in a single step.
He was anxious to see this.
Previously, the Xia Emperor had been suppressing them, wanting to station his troops without fighting and thus control the four kingdoms.
Now that the conflict had intensified and the Dragon Slaying Alliance had started a rebellion, it had yet to end within the four borders.
The soldiers stationed at the front lines had yet to withdraw, forcing Great Xia to give an explanation.
They had already sent out experts and local soldiers to suppress the internal flames of war.
The military generals saw hope and seized the opportunity to suggest it.
Even the vice-commander-in-chief of the West Desert camp and the generals requested to fight.
These people were very smart.
There was not a single word about ” war ” in the memorial, but it showed the growing conflict at the border without missing a word.
Not to mention humans, as long as one could read, one could see the deep meaning behind it.
The battle in the royal court was intense.
The three chancellors, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, the six ministers, and the Marshal of Heavenly Policy were silent.
No matter how the people below argued, they remained silent.
Yiya!
The side door on the left was pushed open, and Eunuch Xiao came in from the outside.
He looked at the scene in front of him.
It was like a noisy market.
He walked forward as if he didn’t see it.
Wherever he passed, it was as if he had pressed the pause button.
The officials who saw him all shut their mouths, secretly guessing whether Xia Hou had gotten the results of the interrogation.
When he was close.
Wei Shang prayed to himself, I hope it’s not the worst.
He walked down from the imperial platform.
Eunuch Xiao whispered into his ear, covering it with his hand.
Wei Shang returned and told His Majesty.
The envoys of the four kingdoms requested an audience outside the Vermilion Bird Gate.
The Xia Emperor guessed their intentions.
The time limit was up.
He demanded an explanation from the Xia Empire.” Summon them in,” he said in a deep voice.
“Yes, sir!” Eunuch Xiao replied.
He turned around and left.
The civil and military officials could guess who it was from this sentence!
After a while.
The four emissaries entered the palace and bowed.
It was over.
Feng Zhengyi was the first to make a fuss.” Your Majesty, have you caught the culprit?”
Eunuch Xiao had just left the hall when someone reported that Xia Hou had arrived.
If it was just him, Jiu Xuanji, and Lu Zhantang, there was no need to report.
The court session had not ended yet.
They could just enter.
However, Uncle Shi had also come.
Zhang Ronghua had used the True Dragon Token to open the way, and he was only stopped when he reached Heaven’s Might Sect, resulting in the current situation.
He returned.
Seeing him come in again, the hearts of the officials sank.
The first time, it was the envoys of the four kingdoms.
This time, it must be Xia Hou.
He needed to be notified before he could enter the palace.
The Xia Emperor had the same thought as them.
Or rather, other than the new faction, everyone present had the same thought.
For a moment, the atmosphere was tense, especially for the Grand Tutor.
He had personally experienced how terrifying Uncle Shi was.
He couldn’t even block a single move with his full strength.
If he was targeted at him, then, then…
He didn’t dare to think about what happened next.
Wei Shang came down and learned from Eunuch Xiao that Xia Hou had come.
His expression did not change, but his heart was solemn as he reported the truth.
As expected of Emperor Xia.
Even if the sky collapsed, he would not change his expression.
Thinking about the worst case scenario, even if Uncle Shi attacked, this was the Imperial Palace.
Adding Jiu Xuanji, there were only two people here.
With the terrifying foundation of the Imperial Family, the two sides would be evenly matched.
Zhang Ronghua didn’t barge in.
This implied that he didn’t intend to fall out with the Flame Ancestor.
Or rather, the Flame Ancestor had handled the matter well last night.” Invite him in!”
Feng Zhengyi and the others were stunned, who was ‘him’?
He actually asked the Xia Emperor to use the word “please”?
His aggressive aura faded, and he didn’t dare to continue pressuring her.
The Xia Emperor swept them with his gaze, as if Feng Zhengyi’s words had turned into air.
Very quickly.
The Amethyst Gate was pushed open.
Zhang Ronghua was the leader, followed by Uncle Shi, and finally Jiu Xuanji and Lu Zhantang.
They entered from the outside, and the officials made way for them.
They stopped three steps away from the imperial platform.
Uncle Shi did not move.
Zhang Ronghua and the other two cupped their fists and bowed.” Greetings, Your Majesty!”
The Xia Emperor nodded.
Just as he had guessed, the worst-case scenario did not occur.
He issued an edict.” Give me a seat!”
Wei Shang went down personally and brought a chair from behind to the side.
Uncle Shi didn’t say a word, nor did he bow.
It was as if all of this had already happened.
He sat down on a chair with a golden blade, and his aura didn’t explode.
From the looks of it, he was still an ordinary butler.
None of the higher-ups present dared to be careless, and no one dared to stand up to object.
None of the officials were stupid.
Even if they didn’t know the inside story, they could guess something from the attitude of the Emperor, the three dukes, and the others.
Even the censor didn’t dare to find trouble at this time.
The four emissaries were dumbfounded.
They had been in Great Xia for so long and had come to the court several times, but they didn’t even give them a good face, let alone a seat.
However, he was merely the butler of the Xia family.
Even the latter did not receive such treatment.
Everyone was guessing what was going on.
