Chapter 1774 : The Jumping Clown

When everyone heard that it was Li Shanchang coming, many Huaixi soldiers turned their heads and looked around. This time the prime minister was sick, but he had not been in the morning court for a long time. Some soldiers felt like they had no heads. Suddenly, they heard Li Shanchang's name, how could they not be happy?

"It's really for Li Shanchang?" Xiao Yun murmured inwardly, knowing that he didn't declare himself next, he retreated to the pillar, leaned against his body, and looked like watching and listening to the opera.

Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily: "Please come in!"

The guard looked embarrassed and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "The Prime Minister... The Prime Minister's body has not yet recovered. He was supported by the servants from the family. In the eyes of the Beizhi, it would be a matter of time for the Prime Minister to come to the Golden Palace?"

"Oh, Li Shanchang, are you pretty good at pretending?" Xiao Yun was funny and glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang on the throne with his eyes squinted. The Lord of Nine Five seemed to know it. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the light in his eyes flashed. He pondered for a moment, and then said: "Oh" and said: "Hurry, send two guards to carry it!"

"Yes!" the guard responded and turned around and left the Golden Palace.

The civil and military officials in the Golden Palace immediately started to talk in a low voice, and the hall was very lively for a moment.

Soon, Li Shanchang, who was supported by the guards, walked away from the Golden Palace in a court uniform with trembling body.

Everyone heard the movement and turned their heads to look outside the palace gate. Li Shanchang, who had been flushed in the past, looked pale, his body was hunched, his eyes were deep, and his cheeks were also a lot of concave. He didn't walk for a while and his body was trembling slightly. The heavy breathing sound could be heard in the entire Golden Palace. If it weren't for the two guards' support, a gust of wind would blow, he might have fallen to the ground.

Among all the civil and military officials, many of them have good relationships with Li Shanchang on weekdays. Seeing him like this, they couldn't help but shed tears.

"Sir, why are you so sick?" Hu Weiyong cried in the crowd, walked up through the crowd, grabbed Li Shanchang's arm, and tears kept flowing.

"It's a pity that Hu Weiyong wouldn't be the actor?" Xiao Yun was amused and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang kept staring at Li Shanchang, and then looked at Hu Weiyong. The smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger and stronger, but there was a hint of imperceptible viciousness. This viciousness disappeared quickly, but was still caught by Xiao Yun who had been watching him. He sighed sadly: "Hu Weiyong, Hu Weiyong, even if you have good acting skills, you are just a jumping clown. In front of a real movie emperor, the heat is a little worse after all!"

Li Shanchang trembled his body and steps, and with the loyal support of Hu Weiyong, he walked step by step to the Golden Palace.

"My minister Li Shanchang pays homage to Your Majesty--?" Li Shanchang trembled his feet and was about to kneel down.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said without moving: "The Prime Minister is sick, so there is no need to be polite. Today's rituals are not required?" Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and shouted to the door: "Come on, show the Prime Minister!"

As soon as they heard the seat, everyone was talking again, but no one spoke out against it. Even though Yang Xian and others were not in line with Li Shanchang, seeing that he looked like this, they just moved their lips and said nothing.

After a while, the guards outside the door brought a chair and placed it behind Li Shanchang. With Hu Weiyong's support, Li Shanchang sat down without hesitation. Since meeting Liu Bowen yesterday and having a long talk with him, he knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was determined to retire this time. In order to fully cooperate with Zhu Yuanzhang, his illness had indeed helped him for many days. With his careful dressing up, he believed that Zhu Yuanzhang would be satisfied with his performance!

Sure enough, from the moment he entered the Golden Palace, he felt the concern in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.

"The last scene is here, I will definitely not let you down!" Li Shanchang sighed in his heart. Although he didn't want to retreat, the situation was stronger than others, so he had to retreat.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked concerned, his body tilted a little, and asked with concern: "Master, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you sick like this? I, I——?" At the end of his speech, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice began to sob, and two lines of tears flowed down like a flood that broke the dam.

"Actors, they are definitely Golden Horse Actors. No, they are Oscars!" Xiao Yun sighed sincerely.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang cried, Li Shanchang couldn't sit still. He broke free from Hu Weiyong's support, struggled to stand up, and took two steps forward. Suddenly, he knelt on the ground with a "bang" and said in tears: "Your Majesty - I'm sorry for you, I've misled the state affairs-?" Just after saying a few words, Li Shanchang burst into tears.

For a moment, countless civil and military officials in the court cried. The huge Golden Palace was filled with crying sounds. If you didn’t know, you would think that the emperor of the dynasty had passed away!

"Damn, why didn't I notice it? It turns out that there are so many actors in the Ming Dynasty. It's a pity to be born in this era. If it were in the 21st century, just like this, crying, Tony Leung, Chow Yun-fat, Andy Lau, and Stephen Chow would be unemployed!" Xiao Yun leaned against the pillar and looked at the funny scene in front of him with a smile. The emperor and the ministers performed an amazing show. How could such a play be bad?

The civil and military officials in the court burst into tears for a while, and finally stopped sobbing. Zhu Yuanzhang wiped his wet eyes and said, "The Prime Minister is for the country and worry about me, and he is so sick. I have never finished seeing it. I am really ashamed of the Prime Minister!"

Li Shanchang also wiped his tears and said, "I know that Your Majesty is busy with national affairs and cannot take off his body to visit me. Now I am in this body, ah...?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Li Shanchang, a hint of apologies flashed in his eyes, and sighed: "The Prime Minister is in poor health, so let's rest in the mansion for a few more days? Just leave the state affairs to Yang Xian?"

Since he sighed with Liu Bowen yesterday, he knew that continuing to be an official in the court would sooner or later arouse Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion. The merits were covered. No one has ever had a good ending since ancient times. He was not stupid. He is now in the limelight. If he doesn't leave patiently, he is afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang's unhappiness. According to his temperament, Li Shanchang really couldn't guess what Zhu Yuanzhang would do to him. If he is so worried and not scared, he might as well retreat first and plan before acting. This is the most wise politician.

Li Shanchang wiped the tears in his eyes, and was helped up by Hu Weiyong. After pondering for a while, he continued: "Your Majesty, the old minister's body has been getting worse day by day. In the past ten days, he seems to have thought at home that as a minister, he cannot solve his problems for the Lord. He is really ashamed of the emperor's kindness. Therefore, the old minister came here today with illness and just wanted to tell His Majesty a word in front of all the civil and military officials in the court!"
