for Advance Chapter
As the Empress finished her words, Prince Fan Tong of Tatar laughed loudly. He surveyed the entire Great Xia court with his gaze, then exclaimed, "Haha... Is this what they call the Great Xia? Such a simple question, and yet no one can answer it! Haha... The Great Xia monarchy and its ministers are truly a bunch of idiots!"
"Your Majesty, you cannot do this!"
"Your Majesty, please be cautious..."
Upon hearing this, the ministers of the six ministries of Daxia spoke out one after another, their expressions filled with righteous indignation, as if those who had spoken of surrender before were not the ones who spoke of it.
"The Grand Empress Dowager..."
Chen Zhiqing stood up again, knelt on the ground, and wept bitterly, "Does this sound like what the Emperor would say? Isn't this like handing over Yanmen Pass to the Tartars? I, this old minister, believe that the Emperor is no longer fit to be Emperor!"
Grand Empress Dowager Sima Manying was calm and composed. She glanced at him with her phoenix eyes but said nothing.
A hint of anger flashed across the empress's fair face, but then it turned into calmness, and she looked at the Tatar prince indifferently.
Instead, Lu Yun looked at the Prime Minister of Daxia in surprise.
And this prime minister is so powerful!
In his previous life, Lu Yun had seen many powerful officials, but none of them dared to speak lightly about deposing the emperor in front of him. Such a thing would only happen when the country's fortunes had declined to the extreme and the court was controlled by powerful officials.
Is the Great Xia Kingdom about to be destroyed? No, no, I have to find another way out. I can't go down with this sissy emperor.
Lu Yun's expression changed constantly, and the look on his face was sometimes bright and sometimes dark. Suddenly he didn't notice that the empress was staring at him with anger on her face.
This damn fake eunuch, sooner or later Xia Chan will chop you to pieces!
The empress, who had heard Lu Yun's thoughts, clenched her white and slender fingers, and wished she could kill Lu Yun.
Calling her a sissy would be fine, since she is a woman after all, and her makeup and temperament are inevitably feminine. But he actually said that the Great Xia that she had worked so hard to manage was about to be ruined!
"Get ready for round two!"
The empress suppressed her anger, ignored the noisy courtiers, and spoke calmly.
"The second round is a pair comparison!"
As the officials from the Great Xia Ministry of Rites reiterated the rules of the second round of competition, Prince Fan Tong winked at Yu Shinan.
Yu Shinan stood up, glanced arrogantly at the Great Xia officials, and finally said in a loud voice: "Emperor of Great Xia, my Tatar Kingdom has a vast territory and beautiful scenery. The first couplet is: White horses and west winds on the frontier."
After he finished speaking, he sneered and looked around with contempt: "Please, Daxia, take up this pair!"
"White Horse on the West Wind Frontier? This..."
"What kind of first line of a couplet is this? It doesn't make any sense at all!"
"That's absolutely true! Could it be another pair unearthed from that Chinese ruins?"
…
The ministers from the six ministries of Daxia spread their hands and talked about all sorts of things.
Listening to the discussion, the Empress's face grew increasingly gloomy. She felt that these courtiers she relied on were like idiots, incompetent at everything they did, and the most incompetent! They were simply a disgrace to Daxia!
This doesn't make sense! Could the officials of the Great Xia Kingdom really be a bunch of good-for-nothings?
Lu Yun looked at the court officials with disgust. The couplets they were talking about were something that any student on Blue Star who had been to school could come up with, but when they spoke of them, it became like a world problem.
"The Queen Mother..."
Chen Zhiqing stepped forward again, "This old minister wishes to report this to Your Majesty. If the ministers cannot agree with this couplet, and if Yanmen Pass is surrendered to the Tatars, causing the people of Daxia to be plundered and killed by the Tatars, Your Majesty will bear full responsibility!"
Even Empress Dowager Sima Manying didn't want to watch the performance between the father-in-law and son-in-law.
The empress, having heard the inner voice, felt relieved. Her sexy red lips curled up slightly, and she looked at her father-in-law and said calmly, "What if I am right?"
"Then I admire you!"
Chen Zhiqing bowed, his face full of mockery as he said, "But if it doesn't match, then, humph! Your Majesty, please have the wisdom to abdicate and hand over the throne to a virtuous ruler!"
"You Daxia people are so impetuous!"
Yu Shinan scratched his ears and said loudly, "Emperor of Daxia, have you come up with the second line?"
"How difficult is this? I don't need to take action. Any eunuch can handle it!"
"Haha... The Emperor of Daxia really loves to brag, haha..."
Yu Shinan laughed sarcastically and said, "This pair and the previous characters both come from relics. The Emperor of Daxia actually said that a mere eunuch could match them. This is truly ridiculous! Haha..."
Immediately, the entire Tatar delegation burst into mocking laughter.
"This... could it be that Your Majesty has been driven mad by the Prime Minister?"
The courtiers looked at each other.
"Xiao Yunzi, go and come up with the second line!"
The Empress looked at Lu Yun and said coldly, "If you can't come up with it, I'll tear you into pieces!"
This sissy is so cruel. Fortunately, I attended nine years of compulsory education.
Lu Yun swallowed his saliva, bowed and said, "I obey your order!"
Lu Yun turned around and was about to leave when he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance coming from the empress. His eyes fell on the empress's sexy, thin red lips and slid down to her fair and delicate swan neck. Looking along the collar, it was pitch black.
This girl smells so good! She's also good looking, with fair skin, and must feel great!
Lu Yun was distracted by what he saw, and when he smelled the pleasant fragrance coming from the other person, he suddenly became impulsive, and the big cock sleeping under his crotch seemed to be ready to move.
Then he shook his head repeatedly, Lu Yun, Lu Yun, why are you looking at this sissy? You like women with big breasts and women with pussies for you to fuck.
Noticing Lu Yun's fiery gaze, the empress felt the skin on her neck tingling, a surge of heat in her heart, and the hairs on her body stood on end. Especially when she heard Lu Yun say such vulgar words as big tits and pussy, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.
She glanced at Lu Yun's crotch without any expression, and seeing that there was no reaction there, the empress breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, fortunately! If he got an erection like before and others knew that he was a fake eunuch, both Daxia and I would lose face.
"Haha...it seems like you guys in Daxia are really out of ideas. Can a mere eunuch like this even know how to read? How many books has he read?"
Aixinjuelu Fan Tong sneered at the doctor and said sarcastically, "I think, Your Majesty, you might as well just hand over Yanmen Pass to us. We will then declare to the world that you have won the competition, thus saving your Great Xia from embarrassment in front of the world."
"Your Majesty, no!"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to give it a try! Although I may not be able to write a matching couplet, we cannot send a mere eunuch. If word gets out, our Great Xia nation will be laughed at by all its subjects."
…
When the court officials saw that it was the young eunuch who had just barged into the government hall without knowing the etiquette, they all stood up to object.
"The Queen Mother..."
"Alright, Prime Minister, please stop talking. I don't want to hear it. Everything is up to the Emperor!"
Just when Chen Zhiqing was about to make a request, the Empress Dowager waved her hand and interrupted him.
Only then did Lu Yun notice the noble lady sitting beside him in gorgeous and elegant attire.
With willow-shaped eyebrows, large eyes, a delicate nose, and red lips, her face is painted with elegant and delicate makeup. Her charming eyes tremble with water waves, and the brown eyeshadow spreads around them like ink, which, combined with the faint crow's feet, fully reveals the charm and charm of a mature woman.
A golden dress wrapped around her hot and plump figure.
