The Prince Regent’s Violent Medical Consort Chapter 71: Silent Courtier

Qu Jingze's voice fell, and the hall became more and more silent. Murong Zheng looked at the ministers, all of them bowed their heads and did not say a word.

Since the incident when I gave the phoenix jade hairpin to Concubine Dong Gui, the courtiers have acted together as a group when it comes to matters involving Concubine Dong Gui. This is not the first time, nor will it be the last time.

Only this time, Murong Zheng felt extremely ashamed and angry.

Because of Qu Jingze's words, he almost scolded him by pointing at his nose.

They all said that the ruler humiliated his subjects to death, not that they wanted their lives, and they didn't even say a word to express their position. Their reaction made him feel more humiliated than Qu Jingze's words.

"Presumptuous." After all, the angry words could not help overflowing from Murong Zheng's mouth.

He was referring to Qu Jingze, and more importantly, the courtiers in front of him who were loyal and patriotic.

"The foreign minister is indeed arrogant, but who gave the foreign minister the reason to be arrogant? The minister did not want to be arrogant, but I watched my two princesses of Bei'an struggling in the sea of ​​​​fire, one disfigured and injured, the other worried , Your Majesty is more presumptuous than the foreign ministers, right?"

Qu Jingze's words were loud and clear, and the ministers were still pretending to be deaf.

"If the Great Zhou Emperor can get justice for me, Princess Bei'an and the foreign ministers, the foreign ministers are arrogant and willing to suffer any punishment from the Great Zhou Emperor."

After finishing speaking, Qu Jingze attached himself to bow down, but still held the phoenix hosta in both hands.

Qu Jingze's attitude was strong and resolute, and Murong Zheng didn't know what to do for a while. In the bottom of his heart, he still wanted to protect that person, but thinking of protecting her, his heart filled with infinite exhaustion.

"What do the ministers think about this matter?" In the silence where the needles could be heard, Murong Zheng suddenly spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty seemed to have discussed it, and they knelt on the ground together with ambition, not even daring.

"You..." Murong Zheng thought that someone would come out and make peace, but he didn't expect that none of the ministers would be willing to give him this face.

The group of people in front of him, yesterday, talked endlessly about the government and politics, and the day before yesterday, he also talked with him in the night for the relationship with other countries. He recognized them as his loyal ministers and good generals, but when the Bei'an envoys forced him, they all He flinched and knelt on the ground with a humble attitude, but the anger in his heart became heavier and heavier.

"Envoy Zhang, what do you think about this matter?" Murong Zheng looked at the old minister kneeling in the second row. Usually, he was the most protective of the king's face. When he called him out, he didn't believe that he didn't stand by him. one side.

"Your Majesty, what you said back then was that everything between the concubines and concubines was your family affair, and you should not let the foreign ministers talk about it." Zhang Yu, who was already in his old age, slowly raised his head and stared at Murong Zheng as he spoke. Disappointment, nothing to hide.

"But now it's not a family affair, it's a state affair." Murong Zheng said bitterly.

"The matter of the phoenix jade hairpin back then was made clear to the court by the emperor himself, that the matter of Concubine Dong was a matter of His Majesty's family."

Zhang Yuen's words were sonorous, and he was not cowardly in the face of Murong Zheng's anger. Murong Zheng looked at him and didn't speak again after all.

Just a few words from the envoy Zhang, he already knew that if this matter was handled in accordance with state affairs, Concubine Dong Gui would not be able to save it.

He originally wanted the courtiers to protect Concubine Dong with himself, but he didn't want to see the courtiers who were loyal and patriotic in front of him already standing on the opposite side of him when it came to Concubine Dong.

They may have been impatiently waiting for this day, waiting for them to be unable to protect Concubine Dong, and then the wall will be pushed down by everyone.

"I didn't know that you and the Empress Dowager have the same mind." Murong Zheng laughed lightly, but he didn't know whether he was speaking to himself or to the courtiers who were kneeling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is sincere towards Da Zhou. If she hadn't assisted the late emperor, Da Zhou would have already..." As soon as Murong Zheng's voice fell, Elder Xu Ge, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up. Just in the middle of the conversation, the courtiers who were burying their heads and kneeling on the ground all raised their heads, their eyes were clear, as if they had heard people talking about their gods.
