Ying Wufei looked a little worried. 'What's the difference between finding father and not finding father now? Fortunately father is not in court, otherwise father would have to put on an act and take the initiative to ask for you to be severely punished. At that time, even if you don't die, you will at least lose a layer of skin. You say, why did you provoke that mad dog Niu Youde? Father has already told you to temporarily endure it. To cause such a thing in the Li Palace, second brother, even if you can escape the calamity of the Li Palace today, how will you go back to face father?
He and Kou Qin looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. They both took out their Star Bells and contacted their fathers to report the situation here.
"Everyone, please continue." The Xiahou clansmen greeted the guests warmly with smiles on their faces.
Although some of the guests sat down gloatingly, there were also some who sighed. The lively atmosphere was no longer as lively as before. The people who came and went to toast also stopped. They were all paying attention to whether there would be any commotion in the hall.
"That Niu Youde is not afraid of trouble. Second Master shouldn't have let him in." A Xiahou clansman secretly transmitted his voice to the Xiahou clansmen.
"Sigh! Since he came in, he caused trouble as expected. I say, is this person really tired of living? He's looking for death everywhere and came here. "The Listener shook his head and replied.
The Kou and Ying clansmen who were involved in this matter were relatively quiet. The Hao and Guang clansmen were not afraid of trouble. They actually started making bets in secret. They bet that the two would die, that the two would be punished, that the two would be fine, and so on. They exchanged looks and secretly transmitted their voices to each other as they placed the bets.
Inside the hall, a few red-armored generals brought Miao Yi and Ying Wuque in. Everyone looked at them. 'Heh, it's really these two.'
The two were brought to the center of the hall and ordered to kneel. Both of them were kicked in the back of their legs. They were forced to kneel on the ground.
Under normal circumstances, there was no such thing as kneeling in the Heavenly Court. They would only kneel when they made a mistake or felt inferior.
Looking at the two, Qing Zhu slowly examined them. The Heaven Empress' expression was ugly. Xiahou Ta gave her a sidelong glance. Xiahou Ling, who was kneeling at the back, looked on coldly. Shangguan Qing and Sima Wentian gritted their teeth. Gao Guan raised his cup and drank slowly, almost not looking straight at Miao Yi. Defeating Armies, on the other hand, frowned and looked at Miao Yi seriously.
As for the other ministers, those from the Ying Clan's faction stared at Ying Wuque, not knowing what to say. Ying Wuman stared at his brother with a gloomy look on his face. He gritted his teeth secretly. His seniority was shallow, and he was already treading on thin ice when he was overseeing the imperial court for his father. You bastard, how dare you cause trouble for me!
Lady Mei watched as Miao Yi knelt down and sighed inwardly. She had such high hopes for a good seedling. How could he be so demoralized and give up on himself? Based on the fact that he dared to say those words outside the hall, it didn't seem like it at all! Could it be that he was venting his anger?
Sitting beside her, Guang Mei 'er looked at Miao Yi with a worried expression. This was her first time accompanying her mother to such an occasion. Of the Four Heavenly Kings, only the Guang family had a Princess Consort. If her husband couldn't come because he had something to attend to, and his wife, who was idling at home, couldn't come because she had something to attend to as well. That was why she was already a little nervous. She didn't expect to encounter something like this again. She was very worried for Miao Yi.
Kou Zheng held the starbell in his sleeve and had already asked about the situation outside. He looked at Miao Yi with a deep frown. What the hell was going on? He was starting to regret letting Miao Yi sit at the Kou Clan's table. If something really happened, he would have to consider if he should save face and clean up after Miao Yi's mess.
Sit with him? Si Miao Li? Startled, the girl threw an egg at the enemy? Si Miao Li? Si Miao Li? Qiang? Si Pin Xia Wei Wei Yue Mu Sr Cong Li Zheng? Si Long Legs Sister Lang? R Bad Bi? Si Chu Lu Chu? Si Pan Lai Di Mou Bo Hun? Si Cong Quan Yi Toying? Si Bei Tuo? Si Mu Fu Mei Miao M?
Wu Qu waved his hand, and the general in red armor who had escorted the two of them turned around and left.
Ying Wuque was someone who had seen such situations before. He tried his best to calm himself down. Kneeling on the ground, he cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty. Greetings, Your Highness."
On the other hand, Miao Yi was kneeling stiffly on the ground without any reaction. Only his eyeballs were moving about.
Someone from the Ying Family Faction immediately shouted, "How dare you be so rude to His Majesty and the Lady Consort! You should be punished severely! "
Someone else immediately followed suit, "According to the law, you should be punished with a whip. Where is the Master of Ceremonies?!"
This was the first time Miao Yi had entered a place like this. As soon as he arrived, he immediately experienced the shady dealings of the Imperial Court. In his heart, he cursed Kou Mian and all eighteen generations of his ancestors!
This time, Miao Yi's eyeballs kept darting around as he cursed in his heart, 'Are they all blind? Can't they tell that I'm being restrained? '
Of course, not everyone was blind. Quite a few of them quickly realized what was going on. Wu Qu made a grabbing motion in the air, and a thick wave of transcendence energy enveloped Miao Yi. He clenched his fist, and Miao Yi let out a long sigh of relief. The seal on his body had been lifted.
At this moment, Miao Yi cupped his fists towards the people above and said, "Niu Youde, the Head Guard of the Phantom City under the Celestial Valley Palace, pays his respects to His Majesty, the Empress, and the Son of Heaven!"
There was a suspicion that he was trying to flatter Yang Qing, but he was now alone in this dangerous situation. No one could help him, so he had to create all the favorable conditions to protect himself. Yang Qing's suggestion was not for him to throw his life away. He had to rely on himself for everything.
Xiahou Chengyu, whose face was filled with anger, was stunned. Then, she almost laughed out loud. She bit her lips and rubbed her round belly. She thought to herself, forget it. As the Empress of the Sky Palace, why should she bother with a small town? After all, she was a direct subordinate of the Tian Mi Palace. If anything happened, she would lose face.
The entire hall was speechless. The expression on Shangguan Qing's face was very interesting, Sima Wentian's expression twitched, and the calm Xiahou Ta slightly swirled the wine cup in his hand. Xiahou Ling, who was kneeling at the back, carefully scrutinized Miao Yi. Gao Guan glanced at Xiahou Chengyu's reaction and gulped down two more mouthfuls of wine. Wu Qu tilted his head and looked at Defeating Armies, who had a slight toothache, as if asking Defeating Armies, 'Is this your so-called honest official?' I think he's more like a flattering and slandering official!
Mei Niang pursed her lips and smiled, while Guang Mei 'er lowered her head and tightened her cheeks.
Kou Zheng raised his hand and touched his forehead. Si Miao De Hairpin? Eh? Qiang? Yong Zhang Narrow Search? Locust Seeking Pen Seal
Ying Wuque turned to look at Miao Yi, who was kneeling beside him. He was a little dumbfounded, but also a little shocked. He had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen someone as shameless as this. He didn't even know if he should pay his respects to the Emperor.
"Hehe!" Qing Zhu was also amused. He thought to himself, 'A monkey cub will always be a monkey cub.' He pointed down and said, "What a glib tongue." Beside him, Shangguan Qing also chuckled.
Unexpectedly, Miao Yi took the initiative and boldly said, "If I may be so bold as to ask Your Majesty, if someone in the Imperial Court has made a mistake, may I point it out in front of everyone?"
It wasn't his first time meeting Qing Zhu. He had seen him in the Imperial Garden a few times, whether directly or indirectly, so he wasn't as afraid as he was when he first saw the heavenly might. Most importantly, his mentality was different now. If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to kneel before Qing Zhu like this.
"Oh?" Qing Zhu's interest was immediately piqued. 'Is he going to help me do something personal?' Qing Zhu immediately expressed magnanimously, "Nothing is better than knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them. However, if you dare to spout nonsense, I will not let you off lightly!"
"Understood!" Miao Yi glanced at Ying Wuque beside him and thought, 'You can continue kneeling. I won't entertain you any longer.'
Meanwhile, Xiahou Ta stared at Miao Yi with interest. This was the first time he saw Miao Yi behaving in front of so many officials. Miao Yi didn't show any signs of fear at all. He couldn't help but narrow his eyes!
Just as the officials were wondering what Miao Yi was trying to do, Miao Yi suddenly stood up again. He turned around to look at both sides, then cupped his fists and said, "May I ask which two officials were the ones who said I was being rude and demanded to be executed?" He was restrained earlier, so he couldn't turn his head and didn't see anything.
The officials turned their gazes to the two officials from the Ying Clan's faction. The two of them felt uncomfortable under their gazes, and slowly stood up one after another.
Before the two of them could say anything, Miao Yi spoke up first, "I believe it was the two of you! Since His Majesty has shown me mercy and allowed me to point out my mistake, then I would like to respectfully ask the two of you to demonstrate how one can bow while restrained. If the two of you can bow normally, then I will accept my punishment! If you are unable to do so, then I ask the two of you to retract your earlier words and forgive me! "
The entire hall fell silent. They were still wondering what mistake Miao Yi had made, but it turned out to be this?
The two officials who had just stood up were speechless. They stared coldly at Miao Yi and sneered inwardly, 'Ignorant junior. Do you think you can force us to admit our mistakes with this little trick?'
Heavenly Dawn Star Sovereign, Pang Guan, secretly shook his head. 'You're still a little too inexperienced. Not only can you not force the other party to admit his mistakes, you'll even incur the wrath of the Ying Clan's forces. When the Ying Clan makes trouble for you later, you'll have to bear the consequences. So what if the other party admits his mistakes over such a small matter? 'Do you only care about having a good mouth and feeling comfortable in your heart? You have no experience in the Imperial Court! '
Little did they know that Miao Yi knew that since he had already made his move, he had to provoke the Ying Clan's forces to make things difficult for him. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to exert his strength. At this point, he had already walked into this hall. He no longer had a way out. He had to be fully alert and adapt to the situation, seizing every opportunity he had!
Sitting in the hall, Marshal Shen Lu, Luo Mang, frowned slightly. Just like Pang Guan, he already had a premonition that the Ying Clan's forces would torment Miao Yi later. He didn't know what to say to Miao Yi. 'Everyone has already agreed to let you go. You can just stay in the Phantom City's Main Town Manor and live well. No one will do anything to you. The Imperial Court is a place where you can kill without spilling blood. Even if you're killed, you won't be able to reason with anyone.'
He was already thinking about how he could help Miao Yi out of this predicament later. Miao Yi had helped his son out of the trap and saved his son's life. He still hadn't officially returned this favor!
As expected, the two of them just stood there without saying a word. Immediately, the Ying Clan's forces stood up and cupped their fists towards Qing Zhu, saying, "Your Imperial Majesty, anyone with eyes can see that the two of them didn't realize that Niu Youde was being restrained. That's why they said those words. The two of them said those words to protect the dignity of Your Imperial Majesty and the Lady Consort. Their loyalty is clear to see. On the other hand, Niu Youde is purely being unreasonable. He's treating this birthday banquet like a game.
His intentions are deserving of death! "Miao Yi was secretly shocked. He realized that this bunch of old fogeys were quite sinister. They were very good at playing the blame game.
Qing Zhu's expression darkened. He thought that this monkey cub would be able to point out some sort of mistake. It turned out that after all this fuss, it was just a small trick. It really disappointed him. He asked, "Niu Youde, is this the mistake you're pointing out?"
