Chapter 677 My Son
Chapter 677 My Son
Lord Han knew her. This princess who defended the country was usually very easy to talk to, not too arrogant, and took good care of him.
It is rare to see someone cursing at full force like this.
Xia Wanniang looked at the civil official who was speaking and said, "You are not convinced. How about we compete? You can choose between civil and military tactics. Let's see if I can defeat you."
The Minister of Rites was so angry that his fingers were shaking: "You..."
"What do you mean by 'you'? I'm telling you, don't think women are your appendages. In my eyes, you're not even worthy of carrying my shoes. Give women a chance. They can squeeze you into shape or flatten you."
"Also, you were also born of women, your son was also born of a woman, and your mother was also a woman."
Xia Wanniang scolded the official on the opposite side so much that she felt like she was going to have a heart attack.
"Your Majesty, please look at the Princess Zhenguo." The others had no choice but to turn and look at Wu Xiao.
Wu Xiao was also stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
This girl must have eaten something explosive today, she's so angry.
Xiao Chiye looked at him and smiled apologetically, then walked out of the team and pulled the man back, and bowed to the important officials: "Please forgive me, my wife didn't get enough sleep today, so she was a little irritable."
"Duke Zhenguo, where is your husband?" Someone jumped out and accused Xiao Chiye.
Xiao Chiye raised his eyebrows slightly: "In my family, the husband's authority is always up to his wife. She said it when she married me that I am only responsible for being beautiful, and she is responsible for supporting the family."
He thought for a moment and said, "Now the Northwest Army is all supported by my wife. It seems that they haven't received military pay and food from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War in the past few years!"
The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue now immediately pretended to be dead. What a joke! They have not been asked to pay the Northwest Army’s military pay in the past few years.
They can then use the money for other things. If they are asked to pay now, they will not be able to make ends meet.
The civil officials kept their mouths shut, and the military generals were all coveting the Northwest Army's things. Who would dare to offend at this time?
Wu Xiao saw that Wen Chen had lost his temper and almost pinched his legs blue, so he deserved to be punished like this.
"Ahem! Since this is a grand court meeting, let's get back to business. My dear ministers, do you have anything to report?"
Lord Han stepped out first and said, "Your Majesty, the new map of Daxia has been completed."
Wu Xiao was delighted: "Bring it up for you all to see. This is the Lang tribe that just joined our Great Xia. In the future, the Lang tribe members will also manage their own tribes."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Xia Wanniang and Xiao Chiye and said, "This is all thanks to the Duke and Princess Zhenguo. They allowed us to expand the territory of Daxia without spending a single soldier. They deserve a reward."
Xu Li looked at the two of them and smiled helplessly. He didn't want to get involved in this matter anyway, so he just pretended to be dead.
Wu Xiao looked at Xu Li at this time: "Xu Li, the governor of the northwest, has also returned this time. Come and tell me about the current situation in the northwest."
Xu Li did not expect to be called out, but he was well prepared. He walked out of the team, saluted Wu Xiao, and then began to talk about the changes in the northwest.
"In addition to rice cultivation, Northwest China has also increased the cultivation of cotton, grapes, potatoes, sweet potatoes, watermelons, melons and other fruits..."
After hearing this, some officials asked curiously: "What are watermelons and melons? And what are potatoes and sweet potatoes?"
Xu Li smiled faintly: "This time we came back with watermelon, melon, raisins and wine. Why don't you all have a taste of them?"
Wu Xiao immediately smiled and asked someone to bring all these things up.
Xia Wanniang leaned on Xiao Chiye: "How long will it take for this to end?"
"I'm afraid the grand court meeting won't end so soon." Xiao Chiye said in a low voice.
Wu Hanyu looked at the food served and asked, "Were these grown by my sister?"
Xia Wanniang raised her eyes and said, "My son."
Wu Hanyu's eyes widened: "That young master?"
Xia Wanniang: "Zilin."
Wu Hanyu picked up a piece of watermelon and took a bite. It was crispy and sweet, and tasted just like it had just been picked and chilled.
Wu Xiao looked at the two glasses of wine in the goblets: "Is this wine?"
