All the ministers and the city lord were stunned.
If you want to make a TOP10 highlight moment for Baihuang, this scene should be included in it without hesitation. After all, hitting His Majesty the King in the face in front of so many people is no longer a handsome word. I can even imagine that when I join Baihuang, I will marry someone and have a child, and I will tell her every now and then:
"Your mother and I were so awesome back then. What kind of royal family, ministers, and daughters of the thirty-six lords' family, all of them were not enough to look at in front of my mother. When I spoke, they all had to keep their mouths shut. Really."
I can even think of Baihuang's child staring at her with blinking eyes and saying excitedly:
"Mama is amazing~ I want to be like Mama when I grow up~"
But the question is will she survive to that day? Can I survive to that day
According to the frequency of her troubles, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult.
The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point, no one spoke, and the hall was so quiet that even a needle could be heard clearly. I saw blue veins sprouting from the king's hand holding the armrest of the throne. The expression on his face was maintained very well, and he asked Bai Huang:
"The victims of Tianyue Mountain? What's going on?"
Bai Huang stood up and said without fear:
"When Lide and I came, due to the heavy snowfall, the dragon car lost its way and strayed into Tianyue Mountain. Thanks to this, I saw a tragedy in the world that I had never seen since I was born. Tianyue Mountain rests on the wind Those people in Suxue were poorly clothed, hungry, and didn’t even have a place to shelter from the wind. I don’t know how many people fell down and couldn’t get up again! Have you ever seen the porridge in their hands? It’s porridge, but it’s actually It's just a handful of bran mixed with a small amount of brown rice. It's bitter and astringent, and has no nutrition at all. Now I want to ask, this is what His Majesty said, can everyone live a little human? No human, dog like That's the truth."
I saw the king's face gradually darken, turned his head, and asked one of the ministers standing:
"Abel, is what Baihuang said true?"
The head of the civil servants was an old man with white beard and hair. Hearing this, he knelt on the ground and replied:
"Your Majesty, I don't know. This year's disaster relief funds have already been distributed, and logically speaking, such a scene should not have happened."
Bai Huang said loudly:
"Actually? Where did the reason come from? Those people who died of freezing were all seen with my own eyes. Could it be fake?"
Abel wiped the sweat from his forehead and said:
"I didn't say that what Miss Baihuang said was a lie, but in my opinion, there may be some misunderstanding here. The distribution of disaster relief funds is handed over to Tamrose. If your Majesty has any questions, you can ask him."
The king turned to Tamrose and said:
"Come out and talk."
Tamrose swallowed a mouthful of saliva, stepped out, knelt beside Abel, and replied:
"Yes. Back to Your Majesty, the relief fund of 80,000 gold coins has been distributed, and all the ministers in the court can testify to this. As for what Miss Baihuang said, I think we should send someone to investigate carefully before making a conclusion. God Moon Mountain is huge, and what Ms. Baihuang saw might just be the tip of the iceberg, maybe it just happened to be in an area where the disaster was more severe... There is no conclusion yet on this."
This is a bit of a level.
If an ordinary person said this to the king, he would have been criticized by the ministers long ago and there would be nothing left. But Bai Huang's identity is here after all, and when she said yes, others dare not deny it. Ordinary people may have blind eyes, but will Bai Huang also see blind eyes? Whoever dares to say that, the Lord of the Sea of Clouds will not agree.
The king nodded.
Bai Huang said eagerly:
"Impossible! Could it be that we just happened to be in the hardest-hit area? Besides, if everything is a coincidence and everyone has a clear conscience, then why did we get assassinated in Tianyue Mountain?"
"Assassinated? You?"
The king narrowed his eyes and glanced at me in passing.
Bai Huang nodded.
The king leaned on the back of the throne and said lightly:
"The two sons of this king, do you have anything to say to Wang Chao and Xi Wang? Chao Wang, you go ahead."
The two princes stood up.
The one sitting first should be Chaowang, that is, the one who was relatively calm when he entered the arena. The one next to him should be his younger brother Xi Wang, the guy who looked at us with picky eyes when he came in. By the way, I was probably so crooked in his eyes that he didn't even give me a second look.
Chaowang arched his hands and replied:
"It's not good to talk about this matter. Even if there is a mistake, it is the fault of the subordinates. Most of the people below have made a mistake. Just find out."
The king was noncommittal, turned to King Xi, and asked:
"What about you? Do you share the same opinion as your brother?"
Xi Wang said with a smile:
"I don't have the guts to be a servant. I think there are nine out of ten that there is something wrong with the court, and it needs to be rectified!"
The king still didn't make any comments, just let the two sit down, and asked:
"What about the other city lords?"
As soon as the words fell, Noren from the Qiming Territory said first:
"His Majesty the King, all the city masters of our thirty-four territories arrived at the capital smoothly, but Bai Huang and Li De lost their way. It doesn't matter if they got lost. They happened to go to Tianyue Mountain. They happened to meet some disaster victims. How can there be such a coincidence in the world, there must be something strange here. Maybe these two people have already colluded with some people in the court, planning to use this opportunity to turn the king's capital upside down!"
Bai Huang's angry words were all uneasy:
"Spray blood! Smack me! The villain will sue first! Smash your nose on your face! You, you, you must be sick."
Kaiya caressed the folding fan, squinted her eyes and said with a smile:
"Since we entered the capital, all we have seen and heard is singing and dancing. And all this is thanks to His Majesty's governance. Miss Baihuang now tells us that Tianyue Mountain, which is not far from the king, has 300,000 People are about to freeze to death and starve to death, which is really unbelievable."
Li Yi also took advantage of the situation and said:
"Return to Your Majesty, Lide is a person I know very well. When I was in Lingyun City, I often rebelled against my father and spent every day. This person is insidious and cunning, and he does all kinds of evil. That's why my father drove him out of Yunyang. I think he is very It may be the instigator of this time, intending to disturb His Majesty's banquet, such a person should be beaten out!"
sure.
Good wind relies on strength, you have also learned it.
I don't need to speak, there will naturally be other city lords who will battle with Noren and the others, and the two sides will come and go, fighting with each other, as if everyone has become a debater. Above the main hall, some shouted, some whispered, some rolled up their sleeves, and some wiped their cold sweat. Behind the impassioned, interests are intertwined into a big net, and everyone is included.
