Someone next to him echoed.

Xie Qian was still very annoyed. Just as he was about to continue to speak loudly, Zhang Yuan suddenly pointed to the distance and shouted: "Here's here, Shangshu Chen is finally here. Lord Xie, sir... Let's go in and report to His Majesty. I believe this court discussion will begin soon!"

After saying that, Zhang Yuan walked into the Ganqing Palace Gate.

...

...

When Chen Xi arrived, no one dared to act too close.

It’s not that these people have a bad relationship with Chen Xi, but that they have to take care of Xie Qian’s face... If Xie Qian doesn’t make peace with Chen Xi for a day, then the court officials will make choices between Shen Xi and Xie Qian, and they cannot take care of both sides.

The mainstream of the court naturally stood on the side of the chief minister Xie Qian. Even if many former eunuchsmen officials wanted to get close to Chen Xi, they would avoid Xie Qian and not be able to act.

Chen Xi didn't say anything, and stood behind the crowd, without taking the initiative to say hello to Xie Qian.

Xie Qian looked back, then lowered his head and closed his eyes and pretended not to know that Chenxi was coming.

Soon, Zhang Yuan came out to inform and asked the ministers to enter the hall for court discussion.

All the ministers entered the main hall of the Ganqing Palace in groups of three or three, and everyone else entered, but there was still no Zhu Houzhao. All the ministers were automatically divided into two rows and stood in the back, while Chen Xi was still standing behind.

After about a cup of tea, Zhu Houzhao came out with the eunuch Zhang Yuan, the eunuch in charge of the Sili Supervisor, and Dai Yi, the eunuch in Bingbi.

"See Your Majesty."

Because it is not the Fengtian Hall dynasty, the ministers just bow and don’t need to kneel down.

Zhu Houzhao stood in front of the dragon throne, covered her mouth and yawned, then raised her hand: "All the Lords are exempted from the gift!"

The ministers stood upright.

Zhu Houzhao sat down and put the thing in his hand on the desk in front. Seeing this, the ministers all guessed what it was.

Just as Xie Qian was about to speak, Bai Yue suddenly walked out of the crowd and took out a memorial: "Your Majesty, the old minister has something to do!"

No one expected that Bai Yue had emerged from the cracks of the human beings first. Everyone thought that Xie Qian and Shen Xi were the protagonists this time.

Zhu Houzhao frowned: "Shangshu Bai, what do you mean? I haven't spoken yet!"

Bai Yue knelt down and raised the memorial above his head and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister is old and has been seriously ill recently. He has not even walked steadily on the ground, let alone deal with the affairs of the court... Please understand your master and allow the old minister to beg for the old man to return to the field."

There was a silence in the presence.

Bai Yue called himself an "old minister" just after fifty years, and proposed to beg for the old man to return to the land, which made the old ministers present, who were over 60 or even 70 years old.

Xie Qian was annoyed and murmured in a low voice: "Why are you coming out to make trouble at this time?"

Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "Shangshu Bai, when you are so old, you will come to me to beg for bones? According to you, today most of the ministers and workers in the court will resign and return home? Look at how many of them are younger than you?"

While speaking, Zhu Houzhao looked at Xie Qian who was standing in front of the ministers, as if saying, "If you, Bai Yue, resign, then Xie Qian should resign."

Xie Qian felt uncomfortable after hearing this and thought to himself: "Is it because His Majesty instructed Shangshu Bai to do this?"

"Ahem"

Bai Yue coughed a few times, then he gasped and said with a heavy breath: "Your Majesty, the old minister begged for me because I am weak and sick... Cough cough... I have been eating more liquid food in the past two years due to severe illness and my body is weak. It is really difficult to take into account the affairs of the court and serve the court with powerlessness..."

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and signaled Zhang Yuan to bring Bai Yue’s resignation memorial.

Zhang Yuan took the memorial at the jade steps down the road and returned to Zhu Houzhao to present it.

After taking a look, Zhu Houzhou said, "Shangshu Bai was the one who presided over the Ministry of Rites after I came to power. How many years have passed? Even if Liu thief was executed, I didn't say to replace you. You said you wanted to resign now, which is obviously abnormal... I don't allow you. If you say you are sick, I will send an imperial physician to treat you. Don't mention this matter again, get up and talk!"

Bai Yue kowtowed three respectfully, stood up tremblingly, looking weak and seemed to fall to the ground at any time.
