C750 Declination of Three Grades
"That's right."
Ying Xiya looked at the shocked ministers standing in the hall, and a smile appeared on her beautiful face.
Back then, when Wang Xiaojian had said those words to her, she didn't dare believe it either, thinking that it was just Wang Xiaojian trying to make her happy.
However, reality proved that Wang Xiaojian had always strived for this goal.
He really wanted to help her revive, the glory of her Tianxia Country!
As he thought about the heroic words that Wang Xiaojian had said back then, Ying Xiya's heart still lightly trembled, before an arrogant emotion rose up from within her heart once more.
That was her, Ying Xiya's, man.
Even if it was a youth, in her eyes, there was no one more outstanding than him.
In the imperial court, Empress Ying Xiya had once again displayed the authority and authority that was high and mighty, and looked at the hundred officials in the imperial court, and said: "Country Guardian Marquis, you have indeed said you want to help us unify the three kingdoms. And he's been doing it. "
"Now, he subdued his Shangzhou and completed half of the goal. We believe in him, and we will do as we say. Within a year, we will be able to unite our Xia Country and revive the glory of our Tianxia Country! "
"In order to revive the Xia Country, Country Guardian Marquis has spared no effort. I will not allow anyone to slander him. Open up your Yuan, Tian Gan, you two, slander Country Guardian Marquis, in the imperial court, the people's hearts are in turmoil. I order the two of you to lower your ranks by three ranks. I won't be using it in the court in the future. "
"As for the other officials, if you continue to speak nonsense about the Country Guardian Marquis, we will punish them with treason!"
A drop of three grades.
The punishment for treason!
Hearing Ying Xiya's words, all the ministers were stunned.
No one expected Ying Xiya's punishment to be so severe.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that Tian Gan was also a second rank official, and that he had fallen from third rank to fifth rank.
The empress also said that they would not be coming to the court from now on.
This was equivalent to stripping them of their duties.
Since then, the open Yuan is no longer the "reference knowledge" of the Chinese Book Province.
Tian Gan was no longer the Minister of Rites.
In the audience hall, each of the officials' bodies shook as they opened their mouths wide in shock and immediately knocked their heads against the ground.
Tian Gan, the old Minister of Rites, was also panicking.
It hadn't been easy for him to get into the position of Minister for Rites, but now that his position was about to be revoked and he was being reduced by three ranks, he was simply suffering from a fate worse than death.
"Your Majesty. I was wrong. "
"Your Majesty, please retract your order."
"Your Majesty, please give this humble subject one more chance."
"This humble subject does not dare speak nonsense against Country Guardian Marquis anymore."
"Your Majesty …"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Tian Gan immediately kowtowed and begged Ying Xiya for forgiveness, but Ying Xiya's noble and graceful face was cold and emotionless.
In her heart, Wang Xiaojian was her weak spot, his bottom line.
Ying Xiya would never allow anyone to slander him.
Whether it was Zhan Yuan or Tian Gan, these two people had always been passive in their ways, and she had long wanted to deal with them.
"Pull it down."
Ying Xiya's dignified and graceful face was as cold as ice.
She spoke indifferently. Instantly, four guards with sabers dressed in Silver Armor strode in from outside the throne room.
Their imposing manner was like a rainbow in the sky. They walked to the side of Zhan Yuan and Tian Gan. Then, they directly lifted their bodies and dragged them out.
"Your Majesty! This subject is wrong. "
"Your Majesty, please give your subject one more chance …"
In the audience hall, the voices of Yuan and Tian Gan were getting softer and softer.
Shock rose in the hearts of the other officials.
At this moment, they finally realized how much weight Country Guardian Marquis Lee Bai held in Ying Xiya's heart.
Some people even felt that it was because of their "dress band" that Ying Xiya had protected the Country Guardian Marquis this well.
After all, the relationship between Wang Xiaojian and Ying Xiya was not a secret within the upper echelons of the Xia Country.
Back then, when had rebelled, many people had personally witnessed the scene of Wang Xiaojian and Ying Xiya kissing.
However, they soon denied such a thought.
Wang Xiaojian's strength was right there.
His merits and what he had done were in everyone's eyes.
Without Wang Xiaojian, there would be no situation with Xia Country today.
Everyone believed that it was because of everything that Wang Xiaojian had brought to the Xia Country that Empress Ying Xiya had protected him like this.
The Prime Minister Sunn was an important subject for three generations. Since when Ying Xiya's father became the emperor, she was the prime minister of Xia Country.
He was also optimistic about Wang Xiaojian, but seeing how the Empress was relying on him, he couldn't help but be worried.
He felt that Ying Xiya's reliance on Wang Xiaojian was not a good thing for her Xia Country.
However, at the moment, he had no way to persuade her otherwise. The angry Ying Xiya calmed herself down and looked at Ying Xiya: "Your Majesty, this subject believes that Country Guardian Marquis is a wise man. I hope that he can recover his Xia Country soon. However, what we need to do the most right now is to deal with the northern borders. "
"A few days ago, news came from the Prince Zhao. General of the Flying Cavalry Yao Yongsheng s over at the Molo Country side asked me to hand over my Zhou Country's Bai Xuanling who had escaped into my Xia Country within ten days. Otherwise, he will bring two hundred thousand soldiers of the Molo Country with him, and break through the northern borders of our Xia Country. "
"Five days have passed and General Hee Yongkang still has not been found. He has escaped into the Zhou Country s and Seventh Princess s. Your Majesty, should I send more people to search for the Zhou Country Seventh Princess? "
After Prime Minister Sun Dingan finished speaking, the surrounding officials looked at Ying Xiya.
Compared to the oath made by the Country Guardian Marquis, this matter was the most troublesome.
Once it was not handled well, the northern part of the Xia Country would not be at peace.
The two hundred thousand strong army of Molo Country was even more terrifying than the three hundred thousand strong army of Shang Country.
But now, the troops that they have deployed at the northern borders are only one hundred and fifty thousand, and they are definitely not a match for that group of Molo Army.0
Hearing that, Ying Xiya frowned.
At that time, she had asked the border guards to release the northern borders and accept Zhou Country refugees.
She guessed that the Zhou Country Seventh Princess was probably among the refugees.
Perhaps, by finding the Seventh Princess s and handing her over, he would be able to avoid fighting with them.
However, Ying Xiya didn't want to do that.
She clearly knew what kind of disaster would befall Seventh Princess once they were sent back to the Molo Country.
As a woman of the royal family, she didn't want to see that kind of thing happen.
Just like before, she was well aware that Qiu Xianer was the princess of a fallen nation in the Southern Champion Kingdom.
As for her, it was as if he was keeping her by his side.
Because the daughter of the Imperial Family was not to be humiliated.
Ying Xiya opened her mouth, and said: "A mere General of the Flying Cavalry, dares to be so arrogant, and threatens my Xia Country!"
"We do not know where the Seventh Princess is, but even if we do know, we will not capture her and hand her over to them."
"Prime Minister Sunn, tell the northern border general Hee Yongkang as well as Prince Zhao. "Now, immediately reinforce the border fortifications, and be prepared to fight at any time."
"Prepare to fight?!"
Prime Minister Sunn's body trembled.
The other civil officials were also taken aback.
Obviously, they never thought that Ying Xiya would say such a thing.
"That's right." Ying Xiya nodded, and said: "That is the Seventh Princess s of the Zhou Country, but those who enter my Xia Country, are my citizens. As the Xia Emperor, I will definitely not push my people into a pit of fire. "
"Other than that, the Shangzhou have already been recovered. In a few days, the Country Guardian Marquis will bring the master of the three hundred thousand king level profound practitioners to the Tianyang City."
"I hope that General of the Flying Cavalry knows his limits and doesn't act recklessly. If he really dares to lead troops and attack my Xia Country's borders. Country Guardian Marquis and I will definitely make him regret it. "
