Joy of Life: Starting from the Prince of Zhennan in Northern Qi!

Chapter 139: Court Meeting, Yang Xiu went to court again!

Zhan Doudou nodded.

But I still couldn't let go of my worries.

Because she was not sure whether her mother was really sensible.

So many years have passed.

Because of Yang Xiu.

So although the Queen Mother was assisting in the administration, in fact, Zhan Doudou was basically no different from ruling the country herself.

There was also a wave of changes in ministers in the court.

Now the ministers in the court are all down-to-earth and hard-working people.

So Zhan Doudou's progress was extremely fast.

The struggle between the Queen Mother and Yang Xiu had already been clearly seen.

Over the years, Yang Xiu has already gained the upper hand.

If it were someone else, the Queen Mother would have dealt with him long ago.

Even if she didn't die, she would have been thrown into the harem to eat and wait for death.

The reason why Yang Xiu didn't touch him was because he was concerned that she was the mother of Zhan Doudou and Zhan Pianpian.

Now, more than 60% of the ministers in the court are Yang Xiu's men.

Everyone knows this.

Among them, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling were the most dazzling among the civil servants.

It is only a matter of time before you are granted a title of nobility and appointed as prime minister.

As for the remaining 40% of officials, 20% are from the old generation.

He also supported the Queen Mother.

They knew very well that they could only live a good life as long as the Queen Mother remained alive.

Otherwise the Queen Mother would fall.

Sooner or later they will be cleared out by Yang Xiu.

The remaining 20% also came to the court to watch when Yang Xiu launched the imperial examination system.

They all positioned themselves as Yang Xiu's disciples.

It can be said that the current court is no different from Yang Xiu’s one-man show.

Zhan Doudou had no objection to this.

The thing she saw most clearly was.

It was Yang Xiu who let her sit on the throne.

She can sit down.

If Yang Xiu wanted to, the throne could have been changed long ago.

So, she now regards herself as a machine for handling government affairs.

Help Yang Xiu do things.

The court is also quite friendly.

They are from the Queen Mother's lineage and like to stir up trouble.

Zhan Doudou has begun to get annoyed with this.

Apart from anything else, everything is moving in a good direction in Northern Qi because of Yang Xiu's existence.

It is no exaggeration to say that things are thriving.

Zhan Doudou had no way to deal with the Queen Mother.

You can't let the Queen Mother kill him.

But fortunately, Yang Xiu is back.

Yang Xiu can deal with the Queen Mother

Moreover, Yang Xiu was very experienced in dealing with the Queen Mother.

Yang Xiu said, "Okay! Let's go! It looks like we have to go to the Queen Mother for dinner!"

Arrived at the Queen Mother's Palace.

As usual.

A group of princesses are still there.

Yang Xiu rolled his eyes.

This Queen Mother, it's been so many years.

How come there is no progress at all?

Every time it is held in the name of a family dinner.

To put it bluntly, they just want to play the emotional card;
Restrain Yang Xiu.

Of course this is also useful.

After all, it was impossible for Yang Xiu to really turn against the Queen Mother in front of so many princesses.

Yang Xiu bowed: "Greetings to the Queen Mother!"

The Queen Mother's face was full of smiles: "Xiao Xiu, you are finally back! I missed you so much! Come and sit down!"

Yang Xiu nodded: "Thank you, Queen Mother!"

After Yang Xiu sat down.

The Queen Mother asked the servants to serve the dishes. She said, "Xiao Xiu's trip to Nanqing can be said to have enhanced the prestige of our Great Qi! She killed the Grand Master and brought back so many students! It is a blessing for our Great Qi to have Xiao Xiu here!"

Yang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, you are too kind! This is what I should do!"

The Queen Mother nodded: "Right! I heard that you brought back a lot of things this time! A large amount of silver and money as compensation, which really solved my urgent need! You don't know that those officials have come to me, and they all said they are short of money! It's good that you are back!"

Zhan Doudou frowned slightly.

Yang Xiu raised the corner of his mouth.

As expected, the Queen Mother’s purpose was still to get money.

Why don’t you learn your lesson?

These people think about these things every day.

Isn’t it annoying?
Yang Xiu said, "Queen Mother, this money looks like a lot! But in fact, it is not much. If you spend it here and there, it will be gone! In my humble opinion, this money should be used where our Great Qi needs it most!"

The Queen Mother's eyes flickered. "Oh? From what you said, you have already thought of how to use the money?"

Yang Xiu nodded: "I have some general ideas! But I still need to think about the details. I will report this to Your Majesty in the court tomorrow!"

Yang Xiu’s meaning is very simple.

I don’t want to tell you today, so don’t ask. I won’t tell you for my sake, and don’t worry about the money.

The Queen Mother looked at Yang Xiu with some anger.

But it quickly hid itself.

"In that case! Let's talk about it in court tomorrow!"

Yang Xiu was very satisfied seeing that the Queen Mother was so tactful.

It seems that the Queen Mother has made some progress over the years.

After eating.

Yang Xiu and Qingniao left the palace.

The next day, Yang Xiu set out from the courtyard where the Begonias bloomed.

Go to the palace to attend court.

Outside the imperial city, officials were already waiting.

Saw Yang Xiu’s carriage coming.

The officials were shocked.

Then he quickly bowed: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi!"

Yang Xiu got off the carriage.

Nodding: "No need to be so polite! Long time no see!"

Yang Xiu came to Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling,
The two saluted: "Your Majesty!"

Yang Xiu nodded: "How is it, are you still adapting?"

Fang Xuanling said: "Adapt! However, there are some troubles! Now Da Qi seems prosperous, but in fact there are many hidden dangers! I really don't know where to start!"

Du Ruhui nodded: "Yes! Your Highness! Without you, there are some things we can't make up our minds about! Your Majesty doesn't want to have a falling out with the Queen Mother, and there are some things that Your Majesty won't go against the Queen Mother's wishes! This has created quite a bit of resistance!"

Yang Xiu frowned: "So, the Queen Mother has now affected the development of Northern Qi?"

The two looked at each other.

Du Ruhui said: "It's not that serious, it's just that the Queen Mother seems to want to start a factional struggle, which is indeed a bit troublesome!"

Yang Xiu nodded: "Alright! I understand! It seems that this Queen Mother must be dealt with as soon as possible! This king has always been too easy-going! I didn't expect that this Queen Mother is still so evil!"

Yang Xiu and the other two did not lower their voices when they spoke, and the officials around them were listening.

Everyone was trembling.

Is this something they can really listen to?

The officials from Yang Xiu's lineage were all excited at this time.

If they could get rid of the Queen Mother, they could start doing it in a big way in the future.

Now the Queen Mother has her own selfish motives, so there will always be constraints.

However, the officials from the Queen Mother's lineage were not so happy.

At this moment, they all felt that their troubles might be coming.

Yang Xiu rarely attended court.

But whenever Yang Xiu went to court, something big was bound to happen.

soon.

The city gate opens.
