At this time, Song Xuan waved his hand to the middle-aged eunuch, "Don't bother, I'll take it myself!"
As he spoke, he took out a chair from his storage ring and sat behind the two commanders. After taking his seat, he smiled and nodded at the eunuch.
The middle-aged eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed to him with gratitude.
The old Duke looked at Song Xuan in surprise and said, "I never thought you could be so compassionate."
Song Xuan smiled and said, "You will know after you get to know me more. I have always been kind. As long as there is no conflict of interest, I don't like to cause trouble to others.
It's not easy for the people working down there either, so I'll try to be understanding."
The old Duke seemed to be thinking about something. This Lord Song was quite interesting.
The hall was quite quiet. Song Xuan looked around, scanning the officials in the hall one by one, and had a general understanding of the power class of the Dao Song Dynasty.
Simply put, even though it is covered by the cloak of the Fortune Dynasty, in essence, the Continent of Ten Thousand Spirits is still a world of cultivation.
In the world of cultivation, the most fundamental thing is the realm of cultivation.
No matter they were civil officials or military generals, the leaders were all sitting on chairs, which also meant that those who held the highest positions in the country all had the cultivation level of the Mahayana period.
Without sufficient cultivation support, even if you have extraordinary ability to govern a country, you cannot become the head of civil or military officials.
In addition, in Song Xuan's perception, all the leaders of important departments in the court have the cultivation level of the fusion realm. Each of them is perfect in spirit and full of energy, and the aura of Tao fruit is faintly visible.
Just as the Grand Elder of Hunyuan Sect said, Qiyun Dynasty is actually a tenth-level sect, and those who are qualified to attend the grand court meeting are all core members of the sect.
About half an incense stick of time passed, and amid a round of greetings, Emperor Zhao Pan finally walked slowly in, surrounded by eunuchs and palace maids, and sat on the spacious dragon throne.
"Go up!"
Inside the hall, all the officials bowed their heads and saluted.
"My emperor's life span is as long as the heavens, and the great way is eternal!"
Song Xuan imitated Duke Chengguo, sat on the chair, clasped his fists and bowed slightly as a greeting.
Sitting on the dragon throne, Emperor Zhao Pan casually looked around the hall. He had experienced this kind of worship for thousands of years and had long been accustomed to it, so he didn't think it was a big deal.
But when his eyes fell on Song Xuan, his expression was slightly stunned at first, and then the faint smile on his face faded slightly, and a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Song Xuan also felt Zhao Pan's gaze, and looked up without fear to meet his gaze. It was this glance that made Zhao Pan's heart tremble inexplicably.
"Mahayana stage! Definitely Mahayana stage!"
Zhao Pan's heart was pounding. When he reached the Mahayana stage, sometimes, he didn't need to take action. Just a glance or a sense of energy was enough to determine whether the other party was of the same level.
And Song Xuan, who could ignore the pressure of the Mahayana Dao Fruit in his eyes, was undoubtedly a Mahayana existence!
Chapter 784 Father, is this the whetstone you found for your child?
At this moment, Zhao Pan felt extremely uneasy, as if he was in big trouble.
The reason why he chose Song Xuan as the second prince's backer was because of Song Xuan's strong fusion stage cultivation and the eighth-level sect power behind him.
With Song Xuan around, the Second Prince can temporarily gain strength and be qualified to compete with the Crown Prince.
Of course, it is impossible to win. The prince not only has many masters under his command, but also has the support of his father and the ninth-level sect behind him. The second prince has no chance of winning.
But at least, in the short term, it can put pressure on the prince. If the training is appropriate, the prince may be able to grow quickly.
Before this, Zhao Pan thought there was nothing wrong with his training plan.
But now, the moment he saw Song Xuan, he knew that there was a big problem!
After pushing a Mahayana being to the Second Prince's side, he could already foresee what would happen next.
The prince's whetstone that he envisioned will no longer exist, and instead, there will be a real fight for the throne!
The Second Prince will no longer be a grindstone that can be squeezed by anyone, but will have the support of a Mahayana existence behind him, and he will have his own faction foundation, and he will be a prince who truly has the strength to seize the throne!
Zhao Pan felt his arms trembling, and he was extremely angry in his heart!
He felt fooled!
The Second Prince was fooling him, Song Xuan was deceiving him, and even the spies who investigated Song Xuan's background and reported the information were fooling him, the emperor!
Otherwise, if he knew Song Xuan's true strength, how could he allow such a sinister old monster to enter the power center of the imperial capital, and how could he personally push an old monster in the Mahayana stage to the side of the second prince!
His indifferent eyes became even more gloomy, and murderous intent began to arise in his heart.
As an emperor, what he could not tolerate most was the situation being out of his control, and now, the appearance of Song Xuan had disrupted his plans!
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the anger and murderous intent in his heart, and said calmly, "My dear ministers, do you have anything to report?"
As an emperor, he should be supreme, but Zhao Pan knew very well that the foundation of the Qiyun Dynasty was the national treasure!
The Imperial City Bureau is nominally a privileged institution that maintains the rule of the dynasty, but in reality, it is the minion of the national treasure.
Song Xuan's position was approved by both him and the Imperial City Bureau, and reported to the Fortune Compass for approval. Without a proper reason, it would not be easy to move a high-ranking official of the Imperial City Bureau, even if he was the emperor!
What's more, this high-ranking official of the Imperial City Bureau is an old monster in the Mahayana stage with deep scheming and extraordinary strength, which makes it even more troublesome to deal with him!
The only thing that made Zhao Pan feel at ease was that Song Xuan had just arrived in the imperial capital and probably had no foundation yet. In addition, this person went to court today and exposed his strength in advance, which was good news.
If this person endures for a while longer and secretly controls the forces of all parties, it will probably be extremely difficult to deal with him later.
Zhao Pan was thinking about how to deal with Song Xuan, the person who unexpectedly disrupted his plans.
At this moment, the Crown Prince Zhao Gou of the Eastern Palace naturally also saw Song Xuan. He did not think as much as Zhao Pan did. His only thought was to kill the Second Prince, the helper behind the scenes, first!
At that moment, he turned his gaze to the line of imperial envoys and censors, and made eye contact with one of them.
Imperial Envoy Li Kai and the Crown Prince looked at each other, then nodded slightly. He then stepped out with the memorial in his hand and stood in the center of the hall.
"Your Majesty, I want to impeach you!"
Zhao Pan's eyes lit up slightly, and with a warm smile on his face, he nodded and said, "Lord Li, who do you want to impeach?"
"Your Majesty, I wish to impeach the Imperial City Inspector, Song Xuan!"
As he spoke, Li Kai pointed at Song Xuan and said in a deep voice, "Without the permission of Your Majesty, this person casually took a seat in the court and didn't even stand up when he saluted.
I want to impeach Song Xuan for his disrespect for his ruler and father, and his disrespect for the Emperor, which is a crime of great disrespect!"
The smile on Zhao Pan's face faded, and he secretly called him an idiot.
There are a lot of points to impeach Song Xuan, but you just picked the most useless one. Although I also want to punish Song Xuan, this point is really not possible!
If Song Xuan is not qualified to sit in this court, then the others are not qualified either!
If Song Xuan is punished for the crime of disrespect, then the Duke and the Prime Minister, who is the head of all civil and military officials, must be punished together!
Instead of dealing with them, it would be easier to deal with you directly!
After a brief pause, Zhao Pan looked at Song Xuan and said, "My dear Song, do you have anything to say?"
Song Xuan sat on the chair and shook his head. "I have nothing to say. Whether I am guilty or not is up to your Majesty to decide!"
Zhao Pan thought to himself that he was cunning and treacherous, but he did not make a direct decision. Instead, he looked at Duke Cheng and said with a smile, "Old Duke, what do you think?"
Duke Cheng yawned and said leisurely, "Your Majesty, this trivial matter does not need to take up the court's time. You know my temper. If Lord Song was not qualified to sit there, I would have taken action long ago!"
"It seems that the old Duke approves!"
Zhao Pan looked at the two prime ministers again, "Prime Ministers, do you have any opinions?"
Left Prime Minister Li Yan glanced at Song Xuan and said calmly, "Your Majesty, this matter is indeed not worth wasting time on. If Inspector Song is not qualified, then we are naturally not qualified either!"
As soon as he said this, all the officials immediately understood that Song Xuan was also a Mahayana being. If that was the case, then the crime of disrespect was really nonsense.
The Mahayana stage is a level that is beyond the world. To put it bluntly, at this level, if someone is still willing to serve as an official in your Song Dynasty, it is giving face to your dynasty.
Do you still want to punish others for such a trivial matter?
If this gets out, it will make other dynasties laugh their heads off!
Zhao Pan looked at Li Kai with a gloomy gaze. "Li Yushi, are you satisfied with the conclusions reached by the old Duke and the Prime Minister?"
Idiot, let’s skip this topic and move on to the next question!
Li Kai looked a little unnatural and pale, and there was a hint of something special in his eyes when he looked at the prince.
He is a follower of the prince's faction, and it is his job to eliminate trouble for the prince.
But one thing is one thing, Prince, can your intelligence system be more reliable?
You don't understand anything clearly, and you ask me to impeach an old monster in the Mahayana stage. Aren't you simply trying to trick me?
Crown Prince Zhao Gou didn't look at him at this moment. At this moment, he had an expression of shock and disbelief on his face, and was looking at the figure sitting high on the dragon throne with resentment.
Father, my dear father!
Is this the whetstone you found for your child?
You use a Mahayana monster to train me. How much do you think of me, your son?
Zhao Gou felt resentful at the same time, but also felt a hint of vigilance.
Or did my father never intend to pass the throne to me?
He said that he was supporting the second prince to train me, but in fact, the successor he really wanted was actually that guy from the second prince?
Chapter 785: So what if I’m the emperor? I can kill you at any time if we have a disagreement!
It's no wonder the prince made such a guess. Anyone who knew the result would probably have the same thought.
You keep saying that you support me, train me, and help me grow as quickly as possible, but secretly, you keep pushing people to the second-in-command's side.
In the past, if you had given the second brother a few powerful men in the late stage of fusion, Zhao Gou could have tolerated it.
But now, you are even pushing the old monster in the Mahayana period to Zhao Zhe's side. What does that mean?
Has Concubine Shu's bedside wind made your head confused?
The court was plunged into a strange atmosphere for a moment. The imperial envoy who had originally planned to impeach Song Xuan today now looked hesitant.
Many people subconsciously looked at the prince, hoping to get clear instructions from him.
A being in the Mahayana stage cannot be easily brought down. Even if Song Xuan is impeached for the crime of arbitrarily mobilizing troops to surround the Duke's Mansion yesterday, it is hard to say whether it will be effective.
Feeling the gazes from all around, the prince became furious and secretly mad, and gave a look to the censor Li Kai.
Impeach!
Then impeach this prince!
So what if you are in the Mahayana stage? This is the imperial capital, the Dao Song Dynasty!
My ascension to the throne was the unanimous opinion of the ancestors of the Zhao family. How can you, Song Xuan, shake it?
Even if I cannot punish you today, I will humiliate you and make all officials realize the situation clearly. Who owns this world?
After receiving Zhao Gou's instructions, Li Kai took a deep breath, held the memorial, and continued speaking.
"Your Majesty, I will continue the impeachment!"
Emperor Zhao Pan's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded, "Tell me, who do you want to impeach next?"
"Your Highness, I impeach Inspector Song's sister, Song Qian!"
"This woman has no respect for the law and abused her power. She privately mobilized the troops of the Martial Palace and surrounded the Duke Cheng's Mansion!"
Li Kai was filled with indignation, clenched his fists, and shouted angrily: "The old Duke shed blood for our Dao Song and contributed to the establishment of the dynasty. Now he finally enjoys a few days of peace and quiet, but he is inexplicably surrounded by soldiers!
Not only did he surround it, but as far as I know, he also arrested everyone in the Duke's Mansion. Among those arrested were even the nobles who attended the banquet last night.
Is there any king law?Are there any laws?
I would like to ask, does that little Song Qian still care about the imperial court and His Majesty?
As soon as he opened his mouth, many censors and censors echoed him.
"Yes, I just found out about this this morning. It's absolutely horrifying!"
"If even the safety of a powerful figure like the Old Duke is not protected, wouldn't we be in danger of death at any moment?"
"Song Qian, you little brat, are abusing your power. If she dares to surround the Duke's Mansion today, she'll dare to rebel tomorrow!"
"Severe punishment, must be severe punishment!"
The court was in chaos, and many people chose to stand on the side of the prince after weighing the situation.
Although Song Xuan is strong, he is only one person, and standing behind the prince is His Majesty, the ancestors of the Zhao family, and the nine-level sect behind the queen!
