Chapter 679: The Behavior of a Tyrant Is Unacceptable

Nan Xi hummed: "I'll go back and see if I have a chance in the future."

Rong Yu pondered: "You can have someone send it over."

Nan Xi was surprised: "Who should send it?"

"Chu Xiu."

Nan Xi was stunned and frowned at him: "Just for a piece of nonsense that I don't know is still there, you asked the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty to put aside his court affairs, the civil and military affairs of the dynasty, and the concubines in the harem, and come all the way. Come to Tanglin?”

Rong Yu looked at her without saying a word.

"Don't look at me like that. You are a strong and ruthless regent. No matter how much you pretend to be innocent, you can't turn into a cute little white rabbit." Nan Xi said angrily, "What do you think?"

Let the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty travel all the way across thousands of mountains and rivers to deliver a storybook? It's absolutely impossible to act like this, and we can't set this precedent, otherwise it will happen again in the future?

Rong Yu turned to look at the tables, picked up the pot and poured two cups of tea, and handed one cup to Nan Xi: "Apart from the audience with the King of Huainan, is there anything else going on this morning?"

Nan Xi got off him, walked to the side and sat down, "There are no important matters for the time being, but the censor has impeached King Huainan and Xie Shoufu."

In addition, the ministers also expressed obvious surprise at the fact that the regent did not come to court.

Rong Yu was silent.

"When King Huainan entered the imperial city, whether he came by himself or by order, the first thing he did when he entered the imperial city was to get dressed and enter the palace to meet the saint. If he came by himself, he should immediately enter the palace to apologize. One-five-ten Explain clearly the reason why you came to the capital; if you came here under an order, you should immediately go to the palace to pay homage to your Majesty, instead of neglecting the imperial order and doing other things, or even communicating privately with the ministers of the court." Nan Xi smiled lightly. "These are the exact words used by the censors to impeach King Huainan, and they sound very reasonable."

Rong Yu nodded slowly. The purpose of the censor was to supervise the officials. He dared to pick up on the improper behavior of the officials in the court. It was his duty to have freedom of speech regardless of whether the views expressed were right or wrong, or whether the words were fierce.

But the premise is that official business must be done fairly, without any selfish motives, no malicious intentions, and no deliberate intention to eliminate opponents. Otherwise, it will also become unacceptable to the king.

"If I can't handle such a trivial matter, what kind of queen would I be?" Nan Xi took a sip of tea and said in a leisurely tone, "I told those censors that after King Huainan entered the imperial city, I asked Xie Shouxu to receive him. Because I am busy with government affairs, I don’t have time to see the King of Huainan for the time being.”

This reason is enough to shut everyone's mouth.

Once Her Majesty the Queen speaks out, who dares not to listen, whether it is Chief Minister Xie, Prime Minister Lu, or the King of Huainan who has come from afar?

As for whether Her Majesty the Queen has passed on this oral message, it is not important. What is important is that Her Majesty the Queen said that she has passed it on. Then this matter can only be because Xie Shoufu received the order to receive the King of Huainan, and there is no other reason.

Nan Xi and Rong Yu chatted for a while about minor and minor matters. Not long after, Xie Shoufu personally delivered today's memorials. He was accompanied by the eunuch in charge of the royal study, and a stack of memorials was held by the eunuch in the palm of his hand. Upon arriving at the Dazheng Palace, all the documents were handed over to Qingyang, who was responsible for delivering them to the palace and respectfully informed: "Your Majesty, thank you, Chief Minister, for asking for an audience."

Nan Xi turned her eyes: "Let the chief assistant come in."

Xie Shoufu smelled the smell of medicine as soon as he entered the palace, and frowned slightly. He was originally wondering why the regent didn't go to the morning court today, but now he seemed to have understood something. After saluting, he went straight to the point, "Is the regent not in good health?"

"It's nothing." Rong Yu didn't hide it, "Some old problems, just take care of them."

Old problem?

Xie Shoufu secretly thought, since the regent came to Dongling, he feels like an extremely strong, indestructible iron man who cannot be hurt, hurt, or even get sick. What kind of old problem does his body have?

"Mr. Xie, is there something wrong?"

Xie Shoufu came to his senses, bowed and replied: "I would like to explain to His Majesty and the Regent what happened last night."

Although Nan Xi defended himself in court and reconciled things with King Huainan for him, he stopped King Huainan's car without his permission and led people halfway to Xie's house. No matter how he did it, None of them are right. They simply have no authority over the emperor. If they were serious about it, the private acceptance of the censor's impeachment could be pinned on them.

Although he and the King of Huainan were engaged in the lifelong affairs of their respective sons, outsiders did not know the inside story after all.

Moreover, the more powerful an important minister is, the more cautious his behavior should be. It is not a mistake that he should make if he easily lets the censor take advantage of him. Even if he had no intention of hiding the incident last night, there is nothing to hide. Department, but the rules are still the rules, and people must not think that he, the chief assistant, has no laws and regulations.

"It doesn't matter." Nan Xi's voice was calm, "As long as it doesn't happen next time."

Xie Shoufu said: "Yes, Your Majesty is wise."

"The two days King Huainan has been staying in the imperial capital, the chief assistant will be responsible for entertaining him." Nan Xi said, "I have been inconvenienced recently, and the regent is not very happy. I don't have the energy to worry about outside things, so I will ask the chief assistant. Those who can do more work.”

Xie Chief Assistant happily accepted the order: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely make the guests of the King of Huainan feel like home."

After leaving the Dazheng Palace, Xie Shoufu returned home and learned that Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao had not gotten up yet and were standing outside the gate of Jinyuan, frowning deeply.

Although he and King Huainan agreed on their matter, are these two people so ridiculous that they haven't gotten up from sleeping in broad daylight?

He ordered the Jinyuan servants: "When the young master wakes up, ask him to find me in the study."

"Yes, sir."

Last night's exercise was too intense, so Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao slept until the evening. After waking up, the two lingered in bed for a while before getting up to change clothes and wash up. After they were ready, the servant came in to ask: "The prince said in the morning that he wanted to eat roast chicken and roast duck. The kitchen prepared a lot today. Can you bring it now?"

Xie Jin nodded: "Bring it."

"Yes." The servant was about to leave, but remembered the order of the Prime Minister, "The master asked you to go to the study."

"Go to the study?" Xuanyuan Yao came over in a white robe, "What are you going to the study for?"

The servant took a look and was surprised to find that the clothes worn by the prince Yao looked familiar, as if they were the robes of his son.

"What are you looking at?" Xie Jin said unkindly.

"No." The servant bowed his head hurriedly, "The master came to Jinyuan this morning and learned that the young master and the prince Yao were sleeping, so he told you to get up and go to the study. He didn't say anything else."

"Well." Xie Jin said, "I know, you can go down."

"Yes, I'll take my leave."

Xie Jin turned his head to look at Xuanyuan Yao, looked at him carefully for a while, and smiled: "Yaoyao looks really good in my clothes, he is handsome and handsome, and looks great."
