Chapter 976: How can I break the confinement of the queen? twenty four

The next day, Jinchen had to get up and go to court even if he didn't have a good rest.

In the court hall, Wen Zhiheng sat side by side on the dragon's chair. For the first time, he listened so absently to what was being discussed in the court hall.

He turned his eyes and looked at Jinchen through the hollow screen in the middle. He usually looked at each other tacitly, but today he glanced at her several times, but Jinchen didn't even look over.

Wen Zhiheng clenched his fingers and tried his best not to behave strangely in front of so many ministers.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers who were sent to look for General Ningde rushed back at noon yesterday. They have made contact with the general. The general has arrived at the inn and will be able to return to the capital in a short time."

Wen Zhiheng's eyes brightened slightly, and he subconsciously turned his head to look over again, feeling sour and complicated in his heart.

It stands to reason that it won't happen so quickly. Even if contact has been made, Western Region may not release him.

Achen has been paying attention to this matter, so the Western Region royal family had to let go.

Wen's father, the Vice Minister of Zhongshu, also detained Xie Jinchen, who almost shed tears, thinking that his eldest son would never come back!

so far so good……

Father Wen looked up at Wen Zhiheng, smiled and nodded at him.

Another minister gave advice.

"Your Majesty, the flood and plague in Sinan Prefecture has become more serious recently, spreading extremely fast. The five local counties have not been spared the disaster. The prefecture of Sinan Prefecture has written a letter requesting the imperial court's support."

Wen Zhiheng was particularly concerned about this matter and finally said his first words today.

"The plague starts with heavy snowfall and occurs at the winter solstice. It must be dealt with as soon as possible before winter begins."

Jin Chen's careless expression on the dragon chair changed slightly and he sat up straighter, "In that case, who would like to be the governor and bring the imperial doctor and troops to provide disaster relief."

As he said that, his cold and sharp eyes fell on Jin Xiaomo, who was unconscious, and his thin lips curled up slightly, "King Xiao, are you willing to go on behalf of the imperial court?"

Jin Xiaomo was suddenly called out, and suddenly came back to his senses and looked up. When he saw Jin Chen's face, the scene where Mao'er was covered in blood last night was still vivid in his mind.

He couldn't hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

Jinchen looked down at him, "Why, King Xiao doesn't want to?"

"Although you are not married yet, you have always set an example for all the princes. I think it is the best."

This disease gave him no room to refuse.

A row of ministers from Jin Xiaomo wanted to plead for mercy, but Jin Chen noticed them keenly, and his stern eyes swept over everyone present.

"Whoever has objections will go."

Now no one dared to speak at all.

You must know that Xinanzhou is no different from hell on earth now. The plague is raging and floods are flooding. Whether you can come back alive is another matter.

It seems that His Majesty now really regards King Xiao as a thorn in his side.

"My brother accepts the order."

Jin Xiaomo almost bit her teeth into pieces and reluctantly leaned forward to receive the order.

Now that Mao'er is dead, the envoys from the Western Regions who are still in the capital may find other ways to sneak into the palace.

To avoid getting burned, leaving the capital now is a good choice.

Jin Xiaomo thought so, and his ugly face softened a little. He went in without thinking about how to provide disaster relief and help the people.

Perhaps sensing his thoughts, Jinchen glanced at Taifu again and raised his head to signal.

The latter bowed respectfully.

"If you have something to do, leave the court, if nothing happens -" Yan Fu'an shouted.

Jinchen stood up and subconsciously prepared to reach out to hold her, but when he just raised it, he put it down again. He glanced at Wen Zhiheng who seemed to be thinking about something, then awkwardly rolled his sleeves and left first.

Wen Zhiheng watched helplessly as Jin Chen walked away from him again. His fingers trembled slightly and he lowered his hands, pretending to follow him as if nothing had happened.

The Tutor fell last, along with several important ministers who had just been told to stay.

"Your Highness."

Yan Fu'an came over respectfully, first saluted Wen Zhiheng, and then said: "Your Majesty will discuss matters with the ministers in the imperial study. You will have your breakfast today in Qixin Palace."

"Has your Majesty had breakfast?" Wen Zhiheng asked immediately.

"This... Your Majesty is busy today and is not in a good mood. I'm afraid he won't be able to eat."

Yan Fu'an noticed his tense expression, bent down and suggested: "If it is breakfast sent by His Highness, I believe His Majesty will be happy."

Wen Zhiheng heard the meaning behind his words, "Thank you so much, Eunuch Yan."

In the imperial study room.

Jinchen's plan today is to strike first and not give the tyrant any opportunity to take advantage of him.

He asked all the servants to step back, and then said rather mysteriously: "Some dirty things have appeared in the palace recently."

Several ministers who thought they were going to discuss major state affairs:? ?

The Taifu stroked his beard and said, "Your Majesty, you are referring to...?"

Jinchen's expression was very serious, and he stood up with his hands on the table, "The cat monster, and there are monsters that look exactly like me!"

One word caused a thousand thunders.

The Taifu was so frightened by these words that he almost pulled out his beard. Several old guys looked at each other in confusion.

Jinchen knew that they didn't believe it, so he coughed lightly and turned his hand away, "You also know that the reason why the noble prince Shaochen whom I favored a few days ago was thrown into the cold palace by me and suddenly died suddenly last night is because I discovered that He is a cat demon.”

"Now that the cat demon is dead, a monster with the same appearance is still rampant in the palace. I'm afraid that one day he will replace me, and none of you will know."

These words frightened several ministers to their knees, and their old bones almost fell apart from the fright.

"I am terrified."

Jinchen was very satisfied with their attitude and began to give sweet dates.

"Several ministers have watched me grow up. Of course I trust you more than others, so..."

He glanced at Taifu again and gave him a look.

The Taifu was silently puzzled, and quickly touched his beard. Suddenly an idea came to him, "I will help your Majesty get rid of the evildoers!"

The minister shook his sleeves and saluted: "I have known many capable people and strangers in my early years. Your Majesty, why don't you leave this matter to me?"

Jin Chen: "Besides, I'm also afraid that one day that evildoer will replace me, so why not get a secret code? Whenever I summon a few people, I have to communicate with Yan Fu'an first."

Finally, this appalling matter was temporarily resolved, and the ministers began to get down to business.

"Your Majesty, King Xiao has reached the age suitable for marriage. He should designate the land for marriage as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams."

Jin Chen thought to himself that he might not be able to come back safely, so why should he worry about it.

"This matter is not urgent. We will discuss it later. The most important thing right now is the flood plague."

The Minister of Zhongshu leaned over and bowed, "Prince Xiao has a surly temperament. In the final analysis, he is just going to express condolences on behalf of the royal family. We also need to elect a governor. I am willing to go forward."

"Cough cough cough..."

Jinchen almost choked on the water, quickly put down the tea cup, and immediately refused, "For the governor's responsibility, it is safer to let the ministers in their prime go."

Just kidding, if you go, your son will also go with you.

After some discussion, the ministers finally selected a person with suitable rank and status and summoned him.

Jinchen: "The plague has cost people and money, so we exempt the Sinanju disaster-stricken areas from money and food taxes, open the national treasury to provide food, and rely on residence."

"In addition, bring a team of troops into the state to maintain law and order and prevent riots. If evil forces are raging, they can behead the leader if necessary."

"I accept the decree."

Everyone retreated, Jin Chen pinched his brows tiredly, his expression drooped again.

"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Queen has personally sent you the sweet-scented osmanthus soup. You didn't use your breakfast, so you can eat it while it's hot."

Yan Fu'an came in to reply.
