The result of the court meeting was obvious. All the ministers "unanimously believed" that Yan's request should be rejected!

Finally, the two big bosses, Prime Minister Li Zhong and King Zhongshan, also stood up and denounced Yan State for being evil-minded and deceiving everyone in Chen State. They actually came up with such a trick of a three-year-old child. It was extremely abominable!

Emperor Chen was certainly not stupid. When he first saw Yan Guo's certificate, he was indeed moved for a moment.

It would be great if the war between the two countries could be permanently ended and the two countries could have good relations.

However, although Chen Huang was introverted, he was once wise and ambitious when he was young.

He also has the courage and vision of an emperor!

Since the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty believed that Yan's request should be rejected, Emperor Chen followed the trend and approved this memorial, rejecting Yan's request.

After the court meeting was over, Emperor Chen announced his withdrawal from the court.

The ministers left the palace one after another, in groups of threes and threes, talking in low voices as they walked.

They all glanced at Zhu Xiuyuan, neither soft nor hard, either bold or sneaky, with jealousy, resentment, and disgust in their eyes...

Zhu Xiuyuan responded indifferently and was too lazy to pay attention to them.

"Uncle Jiang Cheng, please wait a moment!"

Zhu Xiuyuan was about to leave the palace when suddenly a eunuch's voice came from behind him.

I wish Xiuyuan to stop.

The other ministers also stopped.

"So it's Eunuch Zhang?" Zhu Xiuyuan bowed his hands in greeting, "I wonder why Eunuch Zhang called me to stop him?"

"Uncle, please come out of the palace later. Your Majesty has invited you." Eunuch Zhang laughed, being arrogant at first and respectful at the end.

"Good work!"

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded and immediately followed Eunuch Zhang deep into the palace.

The rest of the ministers were still in the main hall. They looked at the direction Zhu Xiuyuan was walking in, and the jealousy, resentment, disgust, etc. in their eyes became more intense...

Emperor Chen didn't call Zhu Xiuyuan for any important reason.

It is to allow him to provide "after-sales service".

The artificial hot spring is a little more complicated, although during the day, Zhu Xiuyuan explained in detail how to use it and how to have fun with it.

However, Chen Huang and You Guifei were both exposed to this kind of "high-tech product" for the first time, and they were a little bit unable to play with it.

So I called him Zhu Xiuyuan...

By the time Zhu Xiuyuan finished everything and left the palace, it was already dark.

He missed the time to leave the palace, and the Meridian Gate was already closed.

Zhu Xiuyuan naturally couldn't stay in the palace unless he didn't want his head anymore.

So the Jinwu guards stationed at the Meridian Gate used hanging baskets to hang it up the city wall, and then put it outside the city in the same way.

One rise and one fall is thrilling enough.

The Chengtianmen exiting the imperial city also operates in the same way.

Zhu Xiuyuan experienced a double dose of thrill and excitement tonight!

After meeting with Yan Dashan outside Chengtian Gate, the two of them rode in pairs and began to rush back to Jiangcheng Bofu.

There was no curfew at night in the capital, so they could travel unimpeded. They rode back, they just had to be careful not to hit pedestrians.

The speed is quite fast.

After returning to the mansion, I saw the mansion was brightly lit. Starting from the gate of the mansion and leading to the corridor between the main houses, there were lanterns hung all over it, illuminating the road clearly.

When Zhu Xiu saw this, he knew that his father-in-law and the others had not rested yet and were probably still waiting for him to return.

After all, this matter is a bit complicated. Zhu Xiuyuan is in a whirlpool and can easily get burned. It is normal for them to be worried.

He quickly returned to the main house and saw his father-in-law, Dong Shuzhen, and Dong Shuyu waiting in the flower hall of the main house.

"My good son-in-law is back. How is it? Is everything okay?"

The father-in-law stood up and came over to greet him, and the Dong sisters also followed him.

"Father-in-law." Zhu Xiuyuan cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Madam, Shuyu, please worry about me. I have nothing to do during this palace meeting."

"It's okay!"

Dong Cheng and the others all breathed a sigh of relief.

After the four people sat down again and ordered the dishes to be served, Dong Cheng asked about what Liang Guo and Yan Guo had invited, and the final outcome of the court meeting.

Zhu Xiuyuan didn't eat dinner before entering the palace. He was really hungry.

When the food was served, he started talking while eating and recounted everything that happened in the court today.

There were quite a few thrilling moments in today's court meeting. When Dong Cheng and others heard this, they couldn't help but stiffen up, as if they were immersed in the scene.

"It's so dangerous!" Dong Shuyu looked worried.

"It's so scary!" Dong Shuzhen's eyes were filled with fear.

"Madam, Shuyu, you don't have to worry. I'm in the court, and although I'm facing a lot of criticism, my situation seems extremely dangerous. But in fact, nothing will happen to me, so you can rest assured!" Zhu Xiuyuan

smiled.

"Well, what the good son-in-law said makes sense. Your Majesty and the concubine are with you in everything. If they are together for a day, the good son-in-law will be safe and sound." Dong Cheng also said with a smile.

Sisters Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen gradually felt relieved when their father and Zhu Xiuyuan said so.

…

Since the end of the court meeting, the results of the court meeting have been spread throughout the capital that night.

He agreed to Liang Guo's request and allowed him to send envoys to observe the process of the martial arts competition and inform Liang Guo of all the military competition regulations.

And refused Yan Guo’s invitation!

It is said that the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty unanimously believed that the Yan State was abominable, and they actually resorted to such tricks as a three-year-old child. Do they really deceive me, Chen State, who has no one in the country?

The impassioned and righteous deeds of those civil servants in the court spread throughout the capital.

They were so loyal and righteous, so unyielding that they denounced the State of Yan and emphasized the power of the State of Chen——

It has been unanimously praised by the people of the entire capital!

After Zhu Xiuyuan heard about this, he couldn't help laughing.

Those civil servants who have any sense of shame will probably blush!

The whole capital was abuzz with heated discussions, and the military exercise was forgotten about, and it completely fell off the "hot search" list.

But Zhu Xiuyuan did not forget it.

He is now running in both directions.

Usually in the morning, I supervise the preparations for the martial arts competition.

In the afternoon, we went to the restaurant at the entrance of Wuyi Lane to plan the renovation of an artificial hot spring.

Occasionally, he would go to the palace and accompany Emperor Chen and Concubine You to dance and drink.

Sometimes I would go ten miles out of the city and visit the Shenlei Army Camp and Shenlei Square.

Quite busy.

Several days passed like this, and everything in Beijing was fine and peaceful.

There were no major events in the court. After the court meeting, Emperor Chen and Concubine You were immersed in fun again.

Especially the artificial hot spring, in this cold winter, it is as warm as spring inside, and you don’t feel cold even if you don’t wear anything...

Emperor Chen and Concubine You were really having fun.

In addition, those ministers who were jealous, resentful, and disgusted with Zhu Xiuyuan all took a detour after seeing Zhu Xiuyuan on the road.

I don't want to collide head-on with Zhu Xiuyuan.

In the court hall, they dared to pick on Zhu Xiuyuan and "please kill Uncle Jiang Cheng".

But in private, they were afraid to avoid him and didn't even dare to say hello.

Because in the court, they can "do not punish everyone according to law". But in private, they dare not provoke Zhu Xiuyuan when they meet on a narrow road.

Naturally, no one would come to trouble him!

With nothing to do, Zhu Xiuyuan devoted all his attention to the preparations for the martial arts examination and the renovation of the restaurant.

Several days passed like this.

Preparations for the martial arts competition are coming to an end.

The construction of the martial arts examination room outside the city is on track. There is no problem with the construction of the weapons required for the martial arts examination... With Zhou Dong keeping an eye on everything, Zhu Xiuyuan no longer needs to supervise it personally.

So he took a break from preparations for the martial arts competition and put all his energy into the renovation of the restaurant.

Progress is rapid.
To be continued...
