Travel through Shen Meizhuang to open the system and walk sideways in the harem

In fact, Yue Zhongqi himself also wanted to know why this happened. He was loyal to the emperor and had no other intentions.

But his ancestors were so famous, so many people who wanted to rebel tried to win over Yue Zhongqi.

Yue Zhongqi is the 21st generation grandson of Yue Fei, a famous general who fought against the Jin Dynasty in the Southern Song Dynasty. Because they are descendants of a famous general, they usually keep a low profile.

But over the years, he helped the emperor quell the rebellions in Tibet and Qinghai, and his achievements were outstanding.

After the emperor executed Nian Gengyao for 92 major crimes, Yue Zhongqi became a provincial governor, holding military power over Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces, and reached the peak of his life.

At this time, the emperor became increasingly distrustful of Yue Zhongqi, but considering his military achievements, he remained tolerant and did not take action against him.

"You said that Chengdu lunatic Lu Zonghan said you wanted to rebel, and Zhang Xi and Zeng Jing also advised you to rebel. How do you defend yourself?"

The emperor picked up the tea on the table, put it to his lips and took a sip and asked.

Yue Zhongqi looked innocent, he cupped his hands and said:

"Your Majesty, I have been working diligently and loyal to the Emperor. Heaven and earth can bear witness to this! As a military commander, it is my duty to guard the border and maintain its stability. As for the rest, I have no excuses. Please believe me, Your Majesty!"

"Forget it. Since I asked you to come back, I believe in your loyalty! Go, go down and have a good rest!"

The emperor was unwilling to listen to his explanation and waved his hand to let Yue Zhongqi go back first.

Yue Zhongqi was nervous, but there was nothing he could do.

In three days, the Beijing Debate Competition will begin.

That morning, the shops on Zhengyangmen Street were lined with tables and chairs.

Many people crowded over to watch the fun. The best seats were by the windows on the second and third floors, where one could not only see what was happening on the ring, but also hear what the other party was saying.

Shen Meimei had already ordered people to bring the audio equipment and microphones to the scene. Both sides set up tables and chairs and sat opposite each other.

Jin Xi summarized the issues that the literati were most concerned about and gave them to Shen Meimei. When she opened them, she found that there were indeed many rebellious remarks.

Everything was ready. Hongfu, Caixing, Caiyue and others pushed out the milk tea they had prepared and shouted:

"Palace milk tea, one tael of silver per cup, only 100 cups available. Customers who want to try Palace milk tea, don't miss it if you pass by! It's only available for one day, and will be sold out once they're sold out!"

Passersby were very curious. It was the first time they heard about Palace Milk Tea and they all crowded around the stall.

Hong Fu held a small cup and said with a smile:

"Sir, you can try it before you buy it. If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay!"

For a while, the milk tea stall next to the debate became very popular.

The emperor looked at the people queuing below, then looked at Shen Meimei, and said with a smile:

"Mei'er, how can you be so shameless? Palace milk tea, you're so smart to come up with that!"

Shen Meimei said proudly, "Your Majesty, expanding territory requires money. Our milk tea stall may look inconspicuous, but this one tael of silver for a cup of milk tea can probably be sold for one thousand taels of silver today.

Your Majesty thinks it's a small amount of money, but I think it adds up to a lot, and every penny earned is a penny earned!"

The debate was about to begin. The prince's tutor Tian Wenjing stood in the center of the thunder, holding the microphone and said loudly:

"Today, I am holding a debate competition to discuss the way to govern the country with Zeng Jing and Zhang Xi. The people live and work in peace and contentment, and no one wants to go to war. Why do you want to incite rebellion and displace the people?"

When Shen Meimei heard this, the host Tian Wenjing came up and criticized Zeng Jing and Zhang Xi.

As a host, I have to maintain a neutral attitude. It's not okay for him to be so biased.
