1711: All Settled 3

All Settled 3

Gu Chaoyan looked up and saw out of the long Jinruan Palace. The dawn was breaking and soon it would be a new day.1

It was time for the morning session.

All was going to begin in a different way soon.

That was the beginning for a new, peaceful life for people in the Saint Divine Land, not the beginning for the ministers and officers.

The moment Zhou Huaijin held out to Gu Chaoyan, the dawn broke.

Normally, ministers and officers would come to wait in Jinruan Palace. They were always afraid of being late.

But today, no one appeared, except for a few who came to their original spots some while later.

"Lord Huai, all the ministers and officers are outside. They refuse to come to the morning session." Fu Bao said.

"In this case, tell them to leave and go home." Zhou Huaijin said without hesitation.

Fu Bao nodded.

They were here to observe the situation.

They refused to come to the morning session because they did not want to be considered as some bad ministers in the historical books.

However…

Zhou Huaijin would not compromise with those people.

If they did not want to accept him as the King, he definitely admired their loyalty.

But the moment the order was given, ministers should come to the palace.

After the chaos at night…

They knew pretty well what was going on, though they were all in their own mansions.

The moment they came to the spot, they noticed Gu Chaoyan next to Zhou Huaijin. Some elderly ones stepped forward and said, "No, Lord Huai, no!"

" "…"

"Elder Miss is Pheonix Girl, and she can't be seated in the same place as you are!"

" "…"

"She is a woman, and she has no rights to be there!"

Why not?" Zhou Huaijin replied coolly. "You should ask yourself if you have the right to be here, rather than whether Phoenix Girl has the right to be in the chair."

Those who were talking stopped.

They did have thoughts going on in their minds, thus not coming inside directly.

But Lord Huai was a resolute person, so he could do whatever he wanted in the chair, which worried them a great deal.

Soon, there was no one who dared retort him.

Zhou Huaijin glanced at those people and shook his head.

They did not deserve to be working for the court!

"Right now, the constant invasion of monsters is a pressing issue. Our priority is to build a strong defense system to protect our people from harm,"

" "…"

"The court had done nothing to stop the monsters. But now I have my own arrangement. Ministry of Architecture and Ministry of Military, both of you will be sending out ten troops of people to build defensive walls and fortifications to protect our people. And for your efforts, you will be commended by General Liu!"

"…."

"Both of the troops should be ready anytime!"

"…."

"Also, the Officer of the Ministry of Rites, come with me. I have a few words with you."

"…."

"End of the morning session!"

"One more thing, Lord Huai!" One elderly minister stepped forward.
