Chapter 833: Liu Zheng Presents a Gift
"It infuriates Me, it infuriates Me!"
Inside the Yangxin Hall, Xie Tianyao was still roaring.
Everyone else stood by like cicadas in late autumn, not daring to let out even a single fart.
Grand Eunuch Zhou looked even more bitter.
Oh, Vice Minister Liu, Vice Minister Liu.
Could you please stir up a little less trouble!
Since going to Liaodong, you have simply let yourself run wild! Five thousand gold! In your eyes, is the Supreme Prince of our Longyan Dynasty only worth five thousand gold?
The royal family has always been a group that cares about face.
With you pulling a stunt like this, won't there be an endless stream of people impeaching you?
Not to mention.
These past few days, every time court was held, there were impeachments; not a single day was missed.
Remember the website rg
Xie Tianyao would not say anything on the surface, but after returning to the Yangxin Hall, he would think of this matter again and become furious once more.
If this matter were truly realized.
Wouldn't the Longyan Dynasty take off?
"I want to kill him! Kill him!"
However, Xie Tianyao could only roar here; if he were really to kill Liu Zheng now, he would be reluctant to let go of this Liaodong affair, which was truly too important for Longyan. The grand vision Liu Zheng painted for Xie Tianyao was simply too beautiful; the land of Liaodong alone could support everyone in Longyan.
Xie Tianyao wore a gloomy expression.
As for the others, how could they dare to answer this?
Therefore, although Xie Tianyao was angry in his heart, he could only endure it.
"Hmm? What exactly does he want to do? What does he want to do! Does he still hold our royal family in his eyes? Is there anything else?"
Xie Tianyao slammed the table hard: "Bullshit irritation, I have already married my daughter to him, what more does he want? What is he still irritated about?"
Others dared not speak at this time, so only Grand Eunuch Zhou could speak.
Grand Eunuch Zhou broke into a cold sweat: "Emperor, actually, in this old servant's view, Vice Minister Liu must have encountered something recently, and perhaps in his heart, he is a bit irritated..."
Bang!
Grand Eunuch Zhou's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly knelt and kowtowed: "Emperor, please see clearly, this old servant is loyal to his master, I just do not wish for the Emperor to vent his anger on Vice Minister Liu again because of this matter, causing the great plan for Liaodong to be obstructed, this old servant is loyal..."
Xie Tianyao suddenly laughed out loud and waved his hand: "Enough, enough, do you really think I have the temper of a child?"
He braced himself and said with a sheepish smile: "It is likely that he encountered some obstacles with the Liaodong matter, and Vice Minister Liu is afraid of disappointing the Emperor; one thing after another, for a young man, being impatient is also very normal."
Xie Tianyao suddenly turned his face, looked coldly at Grand Eunuch Zhou, and said in a cold voice: "How many favors has Old Zhou received from Vice Minister Liu, hmm?"
Xie Tianyao looked leisurely outside the Yangxin Hall and suddenly said: "I want to go out for a walk."
Facing Xie Tianyao's sudden desolation, Grand Eunuch Zhou also knew why.
He stood up abruptly and sighed lightly: "Who told us that our own son is not up to the task?"
Only then did Grand Eunuch Zhou get up and support Xie Tianyao.
Half a year.
The feeling of half a year versus a year is still quite different.
The New Year is coming soon.
This also means that half of the year that Vice Minister Liu once promised to extend Xie Tianyao's life has already passed.
There is less and less time.
Xie Tianyao also knew that as time passed, his dependence on the medicine Liu Zheng gave him was becoming stronger and stronger; before, he only needed one or two pills a day, but now, he had to take more than a dozen. From being full of vigor before, to now, he felt the weakening of his body's mechanisms again, that irreversible weakening.
What is it that people fear most?
It is a lifespan that one can see the end of at a glance, a situation where one cannot see any hope.
On this day, the weather was quite good.
The sun was very bright.
This is also the reason why his temper has been getting more and more irritable recently.
Grand Eunuch Zhou glanced at the imperial physicians nearby, and the physicians nodded one after another, indicating that it was fine to go out for a walk.
Where is Lishan?
Those familiar with history know that Lishan has been the imperial mausoleum where emperors have been buried since ancient times. Xie Tianyao had already built his tomb for himself at Lishan when he was young; this seems to be a habit that every emperor has while in office. Because they deeply understand that even if an emperor is called the Son of Heaven, there will eventually be a day when he dies.
When an emperor travels, the entourage is naturally indispensable.
What makes the civil and military officials feel heavy-hearted is that Xie Tianyao wants to go to Lishan to take a look this time.
Second, he wants to see his own tomb, which also shows that he no longer has much confidence in how long he can live.
The Horse Carriage was moving.
Xie Tianyao coming to the imperial mausoleum made people smell something unusual.
First, he wants to see his ancestors and pay his respects.
He wished he could travel across this entire Longyan in the few months he had left.
He wanted to take one last look at his great mountains and rivers, his great empire.
But Xie Tianyao still felt it was too slow.
Too slow.
This is the current mode of transportation.
Xie Tianyao was also used to it.
That way, he could also die in peace.
It still takes a day to travel from Jinghua to Lishan.
"What are they doing up ahead? Blocking the Emperor's carriage, are they not afraid of being punished?"
"This is preposterous!"
However, at this very moment, the large procession in front suddenly came to a halt.
"What has happened?"
The crowd was shocked and flew into a rage.
To actually dare to block the Emperor's carriage—what kind of people are they, do they not want to live?
In an instant, the group around Xie Tianyao was filled with fury.
Soon, someone came running over: "My lord, a group of people has appeared ahead, and they, they have blocked the path."
That person was drenched in sweat: "General, we cannot break through; they are using a pile of iron to block the way."
At this, the people were even more astonished.
"Kill your way over there!"
The commanding general of the honor guard shouted coldly.
"Who did this?"
The group continued to roar; if Xie Tianyao were to get angry today, it was feared that no one would be able to escape.
Iron?
On this road from Jinghua to Lishan, ordinary people would truly not dare to pull any tricks, as this was, after all, the road for the Emperor to visit the imperial mausoleum.
Incredible!
How did the Emperor know that this was Vice Minister Liu causing trouble?
Xie Tianyao, however, smiled faintly and said, "Is it Vice Minister Liu's men?"
The person who came to report was stunned for a moment, then gave a wry smile and nodded: "It is the Prince of Qin."
Xie Tianyao gave a cold smile: "Looking across the entire Longyan, I fear that apart from Vice Minister Liu and his lot, no one would dare to block my path like this! Let's go, let's go and see!"
Others wanted to advise against it, but they could not stop him.
The group began to curse again.
What kind of mischief does this New Aristocracy faction want to stir up now?
The Prince of Qin had long been waiting here, and upon seeing Xie Tianyao, he knelt and shouted "Long live."
Xie Tianyao said coldly: "Prince of Qin, you block my path today, what is your intention?"
Soon, surrounded by a crowd, Xie Tianyao arrived at the place where they had been blocked.
Just as expected.
The Prince of Qin was there with a group of people, appearing to have been waiting for a long time. Behind them were long iron bars.
Hearing Xie Tianyao's question, the Prince of Qin hurriedly said: "Emperor, this matter cannot be blamed on me; it is truly because Vice Minister Liu wanted to present a great gift to the Emperor this time that he had me wait here."
Presenting a gift?
Xie Tianyao smiled slightly.
The group of people also looked at each other in dismay.
