Ning Chen ignored other people's gazes, and after greeting the eldest prince and the ninth princess, he sat there quietly eating, without raising his head, as if he didn't see anything.
Mingyue is not familiar with any lime next to her eldest grandson. She lowered her head, ate the fruit on her own, and occasionally peeled one and handed it to the bad guy.
Ning Chen took it and threw it in his mouth, not to mention, the loquats in the palace are really sweet.
"When will your empress say it?" Mingyue quietly glanced at the eldest grandson in the main seat who was talking politely to the ministers, and asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, we don't care about the elders, just eat." Ning Chen replied in a low voice.
Mingyue nodded and said no more, and continued to pick sweet and sour fruits to eat. So, in the Jiugong Garden, a strange scene appeared. The ministers congratulated the Queen on her birthday with respect, and the eldest grandson responded one by one. At the same time, he asked some ministers' family affairs to show the court's concern. Under the happy side, the two down
The people in charge, one big and one small, ignore no one, and eat very much on their own.
Lime looked funny, this guy just came here to eat and drink, and he didn't even know how to say compliments.
However, at this moment, a discordant voice sounded: "Excuse me, Marquis Zhiming, are you already married?"
The courtiers in the seat were in an uproar, and they all looked at the person who opened the mouth. It turned out to be the head of Taili, besides the Marquis Wu, the most powerful nobleman, the Marquis of Anqing.
The origin of the Marquis of Zhiming has long been a well-known secret, and everyone knows it, and no one mentions it.
Changsun's brows wrinkled unconsciously, it seems that Ning Chen's being named Marquis of Wu still caused some people's dissatisfaction.
This Marquis of Anqing was a deeply-rooted nobleman in the dynasty, and he was not small in power. He dared to call out Marquis Banwu, but he was not completely out of his mind.
The atmosphere in the room gradually quieted down, and most of them were waiting for the response from the Marquis Zhiming. The mockery of the Marquis of Anqing could be said to hit the nail on the head.
Ning Chen unhurriedly peeled off the loquat in his hand, just as he was about to put it in his mouth, suddenly, he felt Changsun's cold gaze, he couldn't help shaking his hand, and hurriedly handed it to Xiao Mingyue, standing up by himself.
Mingyue happily took the loquat and ate it, not caring what happened to the other party.
The bad guy is not a real eunuch, besides, this is too simple for him.
The two smartest people in the world, one is Sister Lingyue, the other is a bad person, and the others are too different in level.
The eldest grandson's eyes are a bit sharp, this kid is so annoying, others are bullying him, he still eats there. Qing Ning looked at Ning Chen's disinterested appearance, and after thinking about it, she probably understood what was going on. In the past few months, the opponents he dealt with every day were Fan Lingyue and Human Buddha. Such a small role provocation, can't let it go
It is also normal to enter the mind.
Just like what he once said, if a person is bitten by a dog, it is impossible for anyone to go up and bite back.
During the banquet, Ning Chen was forced to get up by his eldest grandson, and immediately glanced at Anqinghou, resisting the nausea of biting the dog, and said seriously, "Anqinghou, I heard that you have a daughter who is still in the boudoir, this Hou is officially today. Propose marriage"
After speaking, Ning Chen bowed towards the eldest grandson and said respectfully, "Empress Empress, I hope you can be a witness."
"Cough cough" Mingyue choked on herself and almost didn't squirt out the loquat that she had eaten in her mouth, the bad guy was really damaged.
The expressions of everyone present were also wonderful, but now Anqing Hou Cong Ming was mistaken by wisdom and asked for trouble.
The Marquis of Anqing has only one daughter, fifteen years old, and she has indeed reached the age of engagement. Knowing that Marquis of Ming's behavior is to be disgusting to the death of Marquis Anqing.
"allow"
"dream"
The eldest grandson, Hou Anqing, spoke at the same time. One was calm and the other was furious. However, this is Daxia, and the eldest grandson's words are no different from the imperial decree.
"The Empress, you can't"
The Marquis of Anqing attended immediately, knelt down and said anxiously.
"Why not, could it be that the identity of Zhiminghou is not worthy of your daughter?"
The eldest grandson snorted coldly, and responded, these old people rely on the merits of their ancestors, and their noses are going up to the sky. Even the Wuhou of Daxia dares to ridicule them, which is really rampant.
"Because, because" Anqing Hou was anxious, his face was sweating, but he didn't dare to say what he was thinking, eunuchs in Daxia could not be knighted. , no one dared to have any disobedience, and all the courtiers have silently
Admittedly, at this time, if he dared to reveal it again, he would be hitting Emperor Xia and everyone present in the face.
"Empress Empress, just now is the Wei Chen who made a slip of the tongue, please take your life back."
The Marquis of Anqing had no choice but to kowtow and beg. He only had one daughter, who was regarded as the jewel in his hand since he was a child, how could he just push her into the fire pit.
Changsun looked at the Marquis of Anqing below with a cold face, without saying a word, a blunder can solve the problem, then she doesn't need to be the queen.
For the public and private, this matter cannot be concluded like this.
Yu Gong, Ning Chen is the Marquis of Daxia, how can anyone be ridiculed.
Yu Si, Ning Chen was brought out by her single-handedly, she could beat her, she could scold her, but others couldn't.
"Marquis Anqing, you are getting old, it's time to enjoy some happiness," the eldest grandson said lightly.
There was an uproar under the seat, and the Marquis of Anqing was even more shocked and his face paled.
"Mother, no," the tenth prince immediately walked out and pleaded.
The eldest grandson sneered, and sure enough, he couldn't sit still anymore. This Anqinghou was a member of the Tenth Prince's faction. Once he was old, it would be a big loss for Xia Mingri.
"Duke Xiyu, what do you think?" The eldest grandson said calmly.
"It's time to change the position of Director Tai Li," Duke Xiyu replied, shaking the Huaguang fan lightly.
He knew that the Empress had already made up her mind. Asking him was just to give him a face, and he couldn't help but know the good and the bad.
As soon as he said a word, it was a foregone conclusion. The Marquis of Anqing sat weakly on the ground, his eyes were dull, and the result was such a short sentence, which made him a little unacceptable for a while.
The tenth prince got up and stepped back, it was a foregone conclusion, no amount of intercession would be useless, the Marquis of Anqing had to give up.
During the banquet, the minds of the ministers turned a thousand times. It seemed that the empress had been dissatisfied with the Marquis of Anqing for a long time, but Marquis Anqing was the tenth prince. Does it mean that the empress's intentions have been biased towards the third prince.
The eldest grandson ignored the thoughts of the ministers, glanced at the sluggish Marquis of Anqing on the ground, and said indifferently, "Since Marquis Anqing is unwilling to marry a daughter, then this palace does not want to force her, so this matter is over. As for the marriage of Marquis Zhiming, this palace will have a claim"
"Hey!" Ning Chen's heart slammed, and a sense of unpleasantness arose, the eldest grandson would not want to mess up the mandarin duck again.
"Empress Empress, Wei Chen is still young, the marriage can be discussed in two years," Ning Chen hurriedly said.
The eldest grandson glanced at the former lightly, and said, "You sit down, needless to say, this matter is well-known in this palace."
Ning Chen sat down helplessly, the anxiety in his heart never subsided. He knew the character of the eldest grandson, and he was just as stubborn as he was. It was difficult to change the decision, and it was troublesome.
A flash of worry flashed in Lime's eyes, both of them were unwilling to step back, so they wouldn't quarrel again because of this.
The eldest grandson looked at all the ministers and asked, "The position of the head of Taili cannot be vacant. Who do you think can take on this important task?"
The ministers were silent, and after a while, the tenth prince signaled a minister to walk out and recommended someone to take this position back as much as possible.
However, the third prince immediately objected and poured a pot of dirty water, just not wanting to let the position of the lord of the territorial ruler fall back to the hands of the tenth prince.
Soon, the courtiers of the two parties quarreled, and even forgot that this was the empress's birthday banquet.
In the first place, Xia Ziyi looked coldly at the ugly faces of the ministers, and the wine glass in his hand clenched into pieces with a click. When did the thousand-year-old Xia become so filthy.
The quarrel between the two parties is still going on. You push one person, I push the other person, and neither of them agrees with the other's candidate.
The eldest grandson's expression is getting colder and colder. These people really regard the court as their home, and they are desperate to install people on their own side.
Xia Ziyi glanced at Ning Chen, and said, "Ning Chen, you can take the seat of the Secretary."
An understatement, without too much turbulence, shocked all the ministers present, and immediately fell silent.
Ning Chen frowned, he didn't want to get involved in these things, and the name of the Taili Division was similar to being notorious in Daxia. His reputation was already bad, and he didn't want to add more to himself.
"I have no objection"
"I have no objection"
After a brief silence, the tenth prince and the third prince spoke at the same time. Their thoughts were very simple. Since they couldn't earn this position, they might as well use it as a favor to win over the Marquis Zhiming.
The three princes spoke at the same time, and the ministers immediately shut up and stopped talking nonsense.
The eldest grandson thought for a moment, then nodded without leaving a trace, Ning Chen is indeed the most suitable candidate, smart, skilled, and ruthless, very much in line with Tai Lisi's style.
Many of the institutions in the Taili Division were originally under-reported, and in Ning Chen's hands, they would definitely be of greater use.
Now, the battle between the two princes is becoming more and more intense, and she needs to prepare in advance to master more information and combat power.
"Do the ministers still have any objections regarding the matter of the Director Taili?" The eldest grandson asked aloud.
"I have no objection," the ministers responded in unison.
"San Gong, what is your opinion?" The eldest grandson glanced at the third prince under his seat and asked.
"It's all up to the arrangement of the Empress," San Gong replied.
Seeing this, the eldest grandson stood up and said sternly, "Once you know the order, obey the order"
"I'm here," Ning Chen reluctantly stepped forward and said respectfully.
"From now on, this palace officially appoints you as the new director of Taili, who will be in charge of the world's prisons," said the eldest grandson.
"Thank you Queen"
Ning Chen knelt down and listened to the seal, accepting the most shameful position in Da Xia.
After the decree was over, Xia Ziyi stood up first and said seriously, "Don't let the mother down."
The next moment, the third prince and the tenth prince also got up and congratulated, "Congratulations!" "Heh" Ning Chen chuckled, responding to the first prince's advice, and immediately clenched his fists towards the two princes without saying anything.
