The Grand Tutor wants to be the Queen every day and is going crazy

Chapter 137 This throne is for you to sit on

The next day.

Gu Qingluo supported her old waist and returned to Mingde Hall, feeling very irritable. Ji Yanchen was already annoying enough, but she didn't expect that after the court session, a few troublemakers would jump out and accuse her of visiting the harem less and neglecting the concubines in the other palaces.

Hearing these words, Gu Qingluo was immediately furious. Her tone was as cold as ice, and she said impatiently: "Are you all mentally ill? Empress Dowager Zhang just passed away not long ago, and you all came here to force me to sleep with my concubine! Don't I have to fulfill my filial piety? The seventh day after Empress Dowager Zhang's death has not even passed, and you troublemakers can't wait to come out and cause trouble, right? Believe it or not, I will take off your official hats immediately! This way, the atmosphere in the court will become more pure!"

After saying this, Gu Qingluo glared at those troublemakers fiercely, his heart filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

Several ministers looked at each other, and there was blame in each other's eyes.

Originally they didn't want to show off their presence in front of the emperor, but this was Prime Minister Liu's request.

Prime Minister Liu fainted in the toilet because of the death of Empress Dowager Zhang.

Fortunately, the servants in the mansion found him, otherwise he would have died in that dirty and smelly toilet.

In this way, you will be stigmatized for the rest of your life as someone who died in a toilet.

Several ministers became even more resentful of Prime Minister Liu, and some even wanted to leave Prime Minister Liu's camp.

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong!" Several people concealed their restless thoughts and returned to their original positions.

Gu Qingluo took a look at what they were doing and snorted coldly in his heart.

She knew exactly what they were thinking. If she guessed correctly, these were Prime Minister Liu's lackeys and the ones who were best at flattering him.

They eat and drink for free in the court, and have never done anything moral. However, they do all kinds of bad things behind the scenes.

"Do you have anything to report?"

"If not, withdraw from the court!"

"Your Majesty, I have a plan to tell you!"

Gu Qingluo took a look at the man, but had no impression of him.

"Who is this lord?"

"Your Majesty, I am the new Minister of Rites, Lei Ling."

Gu Qingluo frowned: "Who promoted him?"

She glanced at everyone and said coldly: "Who promoted him?"

"Have you obtained my consent?"

Lei Ling had a smile on his face, but when he heard Gu Qingluo say that, the smile immediately disappeared.

Lei Ling said in a puzzled tone: "Your Majesty, have I upset you somewhere else?"

Looking at Lei Ling's words and actions, Gu Qingluo knew who promoted him.

"Regent, why don't you stand up and say something?" Gu Qingluo looked at him coldly and asked.

Jun Lingyue glanced at Gu Qingluo inconspicuously and found that there was a hint of anger on her face. He concealed the pain in his heart and said in a calm voice: "Lei Ling is very talented, decisive, and has served in the court for many years. He has made great achievements over the years, so I promoted him to the Minister of Rites!"

"Your Majesty, do you have any doubts?"

"Jun Lingyue, you are so bold!" Gu Qingluo slammed the table and stood up, looking at Jun Lingyue with cold eyes, and angrily shouted: "Why don't you discuss this with me?"

"Just find someone to take over as the Minister of Rites! Are you turning a deaf ear to my words?"

"Is this kingdom yours or mine? Will you be satisfied only if the surname Gu is changed to Jun?"

Jun Lingyue's expression did not change, and his tone was light, as if he was just stating a fact: "The position of Minister of Rites cannot be left vacant for too long!" His voice was calm and firm, without any ripples. This sentence seemed simple, but the deep meaning contained in it made people think deeply.

"The position of Minister of Rites is of great significance to the country's rituals and sacrifices. If it remains vacant for a long time, it will inevitably have an impact on the country's stability and development."

"Is this the situation that Your Majesty wants to see?"

As soon as Jun Lingyue said this, everyone couldn't help but make sounds of surprise.

"Have you obtained my consent?"

"As the emperor, I don't even have the power to decide who will be the Minister of Rites?"

"Why not let the emperor be the regent?"

"Ridiculous!" the Imperial Master scolded.

Gu Qingluo curled her lips and turned to look at the Imperial Master: "Is it possible that I was wrong?"

"As an emperor, I have no real power. I have to make every decision based on the regent's mood!"

"The Prince Regent doesn't even take me, the emperor, seriously!"

The Imperial Master said in all seriousness: "The Regent King doesn't take you seriously, so he must have taken you seriously in his heart!"

Gu Qingluo Ji Yan retorted: "Bullshit."

After the two looked at each other, Ji Yanchen touched his nose and dared not speak.

"Well, how about I draft an imperial edict on the spot and let the regent ascend the throne?" Gu Qingluo sat down and continued.

Jun Lingyue's eyes never left Gu Qingluo's face, and his voice was choked with sobs: "Your Majesty... I dare not!"

"This prince is only thinking about Fengcheng and the court, and has no interest in becoming the emperor!"

"Your Majesty can relax!"

"Okay, since you asked me to relax, I will review all memorials from now on."

Gu Qingluo glanced at Ji Yanchen and said, "Ji Aiqing, you don't need to correct the papers anymore. You can take a rest now."

"What do you think, Regent?"

"Your Majesty, I am willing." Ji Yanchen agreed very actively.

Gu Qingluo pulled the corner of his mouth, looked at Jun Lingyue and snorted: "Regent, what about you?"

After a moment of silence, the king and his ministers finally spoke.

"The King is willing."

“The Regent… you…” Jun Lingyue’s colleagues wanted to dissuade him, but Gu Qingluo responded first: “Okay! The Regent is very generous!”

"I will not hold you responsible for promoting someone without telling me."

Gu Qingluo looked at Lei Ling and asked, "Don't you have something to report?"

Lei Ling took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, the capital has been in turmoil recently. Several young girls have disappeared, and the murderer is hiding deep in the ground and has not yet shown his face!"

"The Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple are helpless."

Gu Qingluo hummed.

Then he asked, "Do you have any other ideas about this case?"

"You must have some other purpose when you say it."

Lei Ling glanced at Jun Lingyue, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, some people say that the murderer has not been caught for a long time because someone behind the scenes is protecting him!"

"The murderer may be someone in the court!"

"What evidence do you have?" Gu Qing looked at Lei Ling in shock.

"Your Majesty, this person is someone you are familiar with!"

Gu Qingluo frowned and looked at Lei Ling. His thoughts were a little confused for a moment, and he spoke without stopping, "Regent?"

"it's him."

Lei Ling: “?”

Jun Lingyue: “?”

Ji Yanchen:?(?′3｀?)?

Lei Ling shook his head and continued, "The rumor among the people is that it is Master Ji!"

"Ah?" Gu Qingluo looked at Ji Yanchen, his eyes full of confusion.

Asked out loud: "Are you so cheap?"

Ji Yanchen: “?”

He hasn't done it! Is that cheap?
