Chapter 1740

Damn it!

This is too perverted!

In the distance, a strong wind blew, dispelling the stuffiness in the air and blowing the robes of the ministers present.

Swish swish!

Their long robes rustled, and even the sweat on their backs was about to be blown dry, but whether it was Yan Zheng or Song Li, they seemed to have no feeling at all.

What is this?

It can be called an unprecedented great victory for Da Qian!

Good heavens, in one battle, they cut down tens of thousands of King Langya and King Zhenyue's men, and even got their hands on the Xiongnu holy object!

If Helian Cha knew, he would probably be angered to death!

For a time, although the sun was high, everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and a chill surged in their hearts.

Outside the large Imperial Study, dozens of ministers were silent.

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes swept over Yan Zheng, and she said, "Censor Yan, I heard that you wanted to see me, and if I didn't see you, you would kneel here and not rise, even vaguely like forcing the palace. I am curious, what is it that Censor Yan wants?"

"I am here now, right in front of you, Censor Yan, feel free to speak!"

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes swept over Yan Zheng, aggressive.

Buzz!

Yan Zheng's brain was buzzing.

He looked up with a pair of old eyes toward Wu Zhao.

His Adam's apple bobbed, but his lips seemed stuck together, and he couldn't speak at all.

After holding it in for a long time, he stammered, "Your Majesty, this old subject... this old subject..."

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes swept over and looked at Song Li on the side.

"Minister Song, what about you?"

"Your Majesty, this subject..."

Song Li couldn't speak either.

"Minister Lu, what about you?"

Lu Wen lowered his head and lay on the bluestone slab.

"Minister Huang, do you have anything to say?"

"Minister Li, I didn't expect you to come too, what about you?"

"Grand Scholar Zhou..."

Wu Zhao's voice rang out like the Yama calling names; whoever was called shrank their head like a quail, lowering their head in shame!

"Humph!"

"Hmph!"

"Now, was I wrong?"

"Was Prime Minister Gao wrong?"

Wu Zhao had hidden for three days and held it in for three days. Now she was firing on all cylinders, and the imperial prestige around her was almost undisguised.

Her voice rose higher and higher, as if she wanted to vent all the anger she had held in her heart for these three days.

Wu Zhao cited classics and fired on all cylinders.

The officials lowered their heads, not daring to look up. Even the censors whose job was to criticize remained silent, not daring to talk back.

After Wu Zhao vented, she felt unprecedentedly refreshed in body and mind.

"Since you gentlemen want to kneel, then kneel for another hour!"

"Someone, summon the imperial physician!"

"If anyone faints, whether it's heatstroke or faking it, treat them with all your might, and once they are cured, they continue to kneel!"

"In addition, convey my order: the Imperial Guard must spread this great victory throughout Changancheng with all speed!"

After speaking, Wu Zhao flicked her sleeve heavily and walked toward the Imperial Study with big strides.

At this moment, she felt refreshed, as if even her chest, which usually felt heavy with pressure, was lighter than ever before.

"Censor Yan, you have harmed me terribly!"

"Yes, I am already over seventy years old. Kneeling for another hour under such a big sun, won't that cost me half my life?"

"Alas! I trusted a pitfall, this is miserable!"

"Grand Scholar Zhou, my legs are numb..."

"Mine are numb too... just kneeling for another hour, it's nothing."

The officials complained without disguise. Yan Zheng heard these words, and his face turned green.

He knelt silently; although it was a punishment, he couldn't help but raise a smile on his face...

Soon.

The Imperial Guard went out from the nine gates of the palace and spread the news of the great victory throughout Changancheng.

Upon hearing this, the commoners were all excited.

Song Mansion.

Song Qingqing heard this, and her vision went black; she almost fell over.

She cried with a mournful face, her intestines almost turning green with regret.

Cui Mansion.

Cui Xinghe stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, holding a cup of fine wine, his expression complex.

He couldn't help but say, "Too stupid!"

"The Living Yama's military report hadn't arrived yet, and they were in such a hurry to pressure His Majesty."

"Alas, I really can't do anything about them. Their faces were almost beaten swollen by the Living Yama, and they still haven't learned their lesson..." ===== CHAPTER 1742 =====

"Sigh, there's really no helping them. Their faces have been beaten swollen by the Living Yama, yet they still don't learn their lesson..."
