Chapter 29 The Emperor's Procrastination

Not to mention Lu Changjing, all the civil and military officials in the court also had such doubts.

Soon, a minister asked whether it was true or not, and the Minister of Rites gave a positive answer: "In about a month at most, the envoys of the Shanman tribe will arrive, so this matter is naturally true."

"Hehe..." As soon as the Minister of Rites finished speaking, he heard Wei Shangang's sneer: "If I am not mistaken, the reason why the Shanman tribe wants to marry our Daning Dynasty is nothing more than because they are targeted by the Blood Barbarians, so they want us to send troops to help."

"Not only that, although the Shanman tribe will marry the saint to your majesty, the premise is that this saint must be the queen of our Daning Dynasty, or at least the imperial concubine."

As soon as the words fell, the ministers were boiling.

"No, a mere barbarian cannot become the empress of our dynasty. This matter cannot be agreed to, not even the imperial concubine."

"The mountain barbarians are asking for too much. They dare to set their sights on the position of the mother of a country. They are simply greedy."

"No wonder the mountain barbarians are so kind. It turns out that they have other intentions."

...

The Minister of Rites was sweating profusely. Obviously, this matter was not false: "Everyone, please be patient. This matter needs to be discussed in detail after the envoys of the mountain barbarians arrive in Baiyujing."

"At present, the mountain barbarians have only proposed such conditions, but whether to agree or not depends on your majesty. It is still unknown what will happen in the end."

This calmed down the turmoil. After such an interruption, the matter of whether to send troops to the mountain barbarians was naturally postponed.

Lu Changjing also successfully got away with it, so as not to face this headache again.

But it was not easy afterwards. Several court officials came to the court one after another. Lu Changjing could not decide on most of the matters, and he could not ask Cao Wenzheng here, so he had to shirk them one by one, saying that he would decide after understanding.

He was going to ask Cao Wenzheng how to solve the problem after the court session.

In the Jinluan Palace, Cao Wenzheng was also very honest, and did not dare to send a message to Lu Changjing.

Because there was more than one grandmaster in the Jinluan Palace. Whether it was the prime minister, the general or the inspector, they were all grandmasters of the tenth level of forging veins.

Especially the general Cai Chaoan, who was a strong man among the grandmasters, and was also ranked in the top three super masters in the Daning Dynasty.

Cao Wenzheng was not Cai Chaoan's opponent, and he had to help cover up Lu Changjing's situation to avoid being discovered that he was a fake.

Although the Huanzang Divine Talisman was powerful, who knew if there was anyone among the civil and military officials in the court who had a divine weapon and could see through the Huanzang Divine Talisman.

The first morning court session was a bit difficult and made people feel very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, after this incident, the emperor was basically cleared of the fact that he was under house arrest, and there were not so many problems afterwards.

And once there is a first time, there will be a second time. After one experience and lesson, it will be easier to deal with it later.

The court session lasted for nearly two hours before it came to an end.

When all the court officials left, Lu Changjing breathed a sigh of relief and was soon taken back to the imperial study by Cao Wenzheng.

"I always feel that your Majesty is a little strange. Compared with the previous court meetings, he seems to be more willing to shirk responsibility."

"In the final analysis, he is just trying to smooth things over. He will postpone any important matters as much as possible, and is unwilling to spend time and energy."

"Be careful with your words. Your Majesty has to be busy practicing the Cang Yang Technique as soon as possible in the next few years so that he can continue the royal family. Naturally, he doesn't want to be in charge. This is understandable."

"It would be great if the late emperor was here. Although the late emperor liked beauties, he was quite diligent in attending court and would not shirk responsibility for many things."

"Push, drag, drag, push, I think your Majesty should not be called Emperor Tianyu, but Emperor Tuituo."

"Don't talk nonsense, be careful that Eunuch Cao will deal with you."

...

Thanks to the martial arts practice in this world, many court officials are masters of the Forging Pulse level, or even great masters.

So when treating Emperor Ning Zhongyu, they are far less respectful than the ancient dynasties in the previous life.

After all, if a master wants to escape and hide, it is difficult to find him even if the whole country is mobilized, let alone a great master.

In this case, many court officials have enough confidence to not give face to the emperor Ning Zhongyu.

For example, Wei Shangang, the counselor, had previously exposed the shortcomings of Ning Zhongyu and his father outside the imperial study, which made Lu Changjing, the fake emperor, feel ashamed. From this, we can see the high status of the master in the Great Ning Dynasty.

In such a large dynasty, there are only a few hundred masters, and they need to be dispersed to guard the vast territory of 100 million square kilometers. On average, there are only dozens of masters in one prefecture, and most of them are low-level masters.

Moreover, nearly half of the masters are concentrated in Baiyujing, which leads to even fewer masters in the local areas.

The civil and military ministers who are qualified to attend the court are basically masters, and most of them are masters of the middle level or above. There are more than a dozen who are better than Ning Zhongyu.

In addition, Ning Zhongyu himself is too lazy in politics, so it is normal to be criticized.

But because of this incident, he gained a reputation as the "Emperor of Procrastination", which was unexpected.

However, Lu Changjing and Cao Wenzheng did not know about this at the moment. They were still discussing the matters during the court session in the imperial study.

"You did a good job overall this time. At least no flaws were found. We are relieved."

"But you still deserve to be beaten, because when you procrastinate, you always give people a feeling of indecision, which is far inferior to His Majesty."

"You still need to train well in this aspect. Next time you go to court, try to postpone all the court matters as much as possible. We will make the decision after returning to the imperial study."

...

After giving Lu Changjing a few slaps and teaching him some things he should pay attention to when going to court, as well as the things he did not do well this time, Cao Wenzheng left.

After a cup of tea, when Lu Changjing was still a little depressed, he heard Tan Qingyun's voice.

"Brother, baby is here to see you."

Regarding the self-proclaimed baby, it was Lu Changjing who taught Tan Qingyun, and the name brother was learned by Tan Qingyun without a teacher.

Lu Changjing felt that Tan Qingyun had a cute and innocent baby face, just like a baby, and then thought of this more cute name in the previous life, so he called Tan Qingyun baby.

I didn't expect this guy to learn so quickly, and he learned to call himself baby in just a few times.

Baobao's black hair was like a waterfall, her lips were like cherry blossoms, her eyebrows were like willow leaves, her eyes were like autumn water, her face was pink and rosy, her neck was white, her waist was slim, and she rushed towards Lu Changjing.

Seeing Tan Qingyun, Lu Changjing's originally irritable mood also improved a lot, and he quickly caught Tan Qingyun who rushed towards him: "Baby, you are here, brother hugs you."

Since falling in love, Lu Changjing found that he was becoming more and more shameless.

Sure enough, love can change people beyond recognition.

"Hehe..."

Tan Qingyun smiled and threw herself into Lu Changjing's arms, holding a food box in her hand.
