King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 326: seal

  Chapter 326 Official Seal

   Sitting up in an instant, wiping the sweat from the forehead, only to realize that what happened just now was just a dream.

   Taking a deep breath and slowly closing his eyes, Junli couldn't help thinking of the last scene he saw just now.

  After being sucked in by the blue vortex, Junli seemed to see...

  Golden Armored Army?

   No, it should be rows of stone statues standing in an orderly manner!

  But there was a voice in my heart telling Junli that it was the legendary Golden Armored Army!

   A trace of doubts could not help but float in my heart: How could the legendary Golden Armored Army be a stone statue! It should be a stone statue carved out of the Golden Armored Army.

  But this doubt was quickly put aside by Jun Li, what she was thinking about now was what kind of appearance was under the mask of the Yin clan patriarch! Who is next to her!

  That touch of red, what is it...

   And this dream, so real, what is it telling her?

  Mother Mu Xi, has she also come to this world, and is she staying in the palace of which country at this time?

   After all, judging from the dream just now, mother Mu Xi is in a palace.

  Thinking that the blue vortex was emanating from the glass crescent moon on his wrist, Junli couldn't help but lower his head, only to see that the glass crescent moon was emitting a hazy blue light. In transparent crystal objects, the blue liquid seems to be bluer.

   "Are you... telling me something?" A low whisper slowly sounded in the silent palace.

  Turning his head, he saw that the sky outside the window was getting brighter, and Su Yunqing beside him was sleeping soundly.

  With a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, Junli got up, put on his clothes and walked out of the palace, without having breakfast, he went directly to Canglan Palace.

   No matter what the dream just foreshadowed, or what Liuli Xinyue was reminding her of, she only knew that if she didn't want the things in the dream to happen, she had to keep getting stronger!

  When they came to the Canglan Hall, all the ministers had just arrived and stood neatly and orderly on both sides of the hall.

  Jun Li sat on the dragon chair, and the ministers bowed down.

  After some etiquette, the most important thing in the morning court was ushered in.

  That is—official!

  After a call, more than 200 people selected this time walked into the hall respectfully.

  After everyone stood still, Eunuch Yu stepped forward two steps under Junli's signal, "The top three in the imperial examination, come out!"

  Han Luo, Han Ye, Chen Zitan, Bai Heng, Cheng Linlang, Du Rulan, Jin Yuehua, Tang Yin and others walked out from the crowd. Bian Hongxia was not included because she lived in Lucheng.

   Several people stood still, and Eunuch Yu took a booklet from the attendant behind him and said, "The third place in the imperial examination, Jin Yuehua is the history editor of the Imperial Academy, from the fourth grade."

   "The third place in the imperial examination, Tang Yin served as the minister of Dali Temple, from the fourth grade."

   "The second place in the imperial examination, Du Rulan was appointed as the prefect of Lucheng, from the third grade."

   "Second in the imperial examination, Cheng Linlang served as the deputy minister of the household department, from the third rank."

   "Second in the imperial examination, Bai Heng served as the deputy minister of Xingbu, from the third rank."

   "The first place in the imperial examination, Chen Zitan served as the minister of the Ministry of Industry, from the second rank."

   "The first place in the imperial examination, Han Ye served as the Minister of the Ministry of War, temporarily acting as the Minister of the Ministry of War."

  Hearing this, all the ministers were astonished.

  Others, they have no objections, but what kind of person is that Han Ye? You know, the Minister of the Ministry of War can mobilize 100,000 soldiers and horses from the Beirong Kingdom. Of course, Junli has to agree. But even so, it is surprising.

   "Your Majesty, how can a new official temporarily take the post of Minister of the Ministry of War. You must know that the Minister of the Ministry of War can mobilize the power of 100,000 soldiers and horses in our Beirong Kingdom!" A veteran of the three dynasties disagreed and stood up to object.

  When the veteran of the Three Dynasties said this, the scholars who didn't know much about the position of Minister of the Ministry of War all opened their eyes wide in surprise.

  A champion in a new department, if he breaks the sky, he will be a second-rank official, but now, he can become a first-rank official as soon as he comes, how is this possible!

  Some scholars couldn't help lowering their heads and discussing,

  The ministers also instantly divided into three factions. One faction is in favor, one faction is against, and the other faction is neutral and silent.

   Those who stood neutral and did not speak were headed by Prime Minister Meng, Shi Feng, and Sima Lian.

   Those in favor are led by Lord Ye and Lord Yang. Those who opposed were headed by several veterans of the three dynasties. The two factions quarreled like this.

  The originally quiet and solemn hall suddenly became like a vegetable market, full of noisy sounds.

  Jun Li watched coldly, without saying a word.

   All the selected scholars and martial arts students were shocked by the scene before them. The majestic and solemn hall just now, and the majestic and respectful ministers, are all in chaos now.

   "Your Majesty..." Eunuch Yu cried out worriedly, but his voice was quickly drowned out by all the other voices.

  Jun Li waved his hand lightly, signaling him not to speak.

  Eunuch Yu opened his mouth, but he still retreated back and remained silent.

  The ministers below were arguing fiercely, without any scruples about the scene. Jun Li didn't stop them either, but let them keep arguing and arguing.

  Hearing the opposing voices one by one, Jun Li sneered, his eyes swept over without a trace, and secretly remembered all those who opposed it in his heart.

   After an unknown amount of time, the voices of the debate began to weaken. The ministers touched their necks, their lips were dry.

  Jun Li looked up at the sky, and had to admire such a minister's ability to quarrel. It's been almost two hours and four hours, and I didn't realize that I was tired and thirsty.

   "Are you thirsty? Eunuch Yu, go and order someone to pour some tea to quench the adults' thirst and let the adults continue to quarrel."

  The faint voice woke up the ministers. After realizing where they are now, all the ministers could not help but sweat on their foreheads.

   "Yes." Eunuch Yu nodded and backed out. Soon he came in with a dozen attendants carrying tea and poured tea for the ministers one by one.

  But none of the ministers dared to take it, and all of them trembled with fright and couldn't speak.

   "Why, aren't you thirsty?" Jun Li pursed his lips, smiling coquettishly.

   Now, no one dares to take the teacup...

"boom!"

  A loud noise made all the ministers tremble unconsciously.

  Jun Li withdrew his hand from patting the table in front of him, and said with a cold face, "Isn't everyone quite quarrelsome just now? Why aren't you quarrelsome now?"

   None of the ministers dared to answer, they all shrank their necks and lowered their heads.

  All the scholars and martial arts students were also shocked by Junli's aura at this time, like those ministers, they didn't dare to breathe aloud.

  Junli stood up, looked down at the ministers, his eyes were indifferent, and his voice was bone-chilling, "Remember, this emperor is the master of Beirong Kingdom! You have no right to object to the emperor's decision, you can only obey it!"
