No words were spoken that night.

The next morning, Shi Xuanji came to the Council Hall with the prince in her arms as usual, and Zhao Mu also became Si Shanggong and followed her.

After Shi Xuanji sat down, the ministers saluted perfunctorily: "Greetings to the Queen, greetings to the Crown Prince!"

"All the ministers stand up!"

Shi Xuanji seemed to be unable to see the ministers' perfunctory attitude, and raised her hand with a gentle smile.

"Thank you, Queen, thank you, Crown Prince!"

The ministers stood up.

Shi Xuanji continued to smile and said: "My dear ministers, what political affairs do you want to discuss today?"

"My queen, the first thing is naturally about the Holy Tree of Heaven."

General Qin Mu took the lead and fired the first shot.

He looked at the Imperial Master coldly: "Imperial Master, you have delayed the matter of reshaping the Holy Fruit of Heavenly Dao for several days. You don't want to keep delaying it like this, do you?"

"The guilty should be punished."

"If you don't give an explanation to the court and the public, this general will report you in court today and let the Queen sentence you to death!"

The Prime Minister and King Kang also looked over. Although they didn't say anything, the threat was obvious.

The Imperial Master looked at Qin Mu coldly: "Why, General, do you have to kill this national master?"

"It's not that this general has to kill you, but the court law cannot be desecrated. The guilty should plead guilty."

Qin Mu's face was full of righteousness.

Kang Wang Shengshu Longyu also said: "Hey, Imperial Master, it's not that we are making things difficult for you. In the matter of the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao, you really have an unshirkable responsibility. You..."

"Okay, this national master agreed!"

"You said you agreed... huh? What did you say?" King Kang was suddenly stunned.

Not just King Kang.

Prime Minister Situ Wenzhong.

General Qin Mu.

And all the civil and military officials present were stunned at this moment.

Everyone turned their heads in disbelief, looking at the national teacher as if they were looking at a fool, or they themselves looked more like fools at this moment.

They were indeed a little dumbfounded!

I thought that today's court debate would be the same as the previous few days, everyone yelling and cursing, but in the end, nothing could be achieved.

But who could have thought that the national teacher would agree so suddenly...?

This... what is going on?

Some people felt suffocated in their chests, and felt that they wanted to curse out some dirty words, but they couldn't open their mouths!

No, why did you agree so readily?

I have prepared eloquent words in private, just waiting to show my might in the court today and show my face in front of my colleagues.

You agreed so easily, who can I refute with my eloquent words?

Some people were puzzled, and their eyes were full of strangeness when they looked at the national teacher.

The State Master tried every way to shirk responsibility in the court a few days ago. Why did he suddenly agree today?

Was he possessed?

Or is there something strange?

Prime Minister Situ Wenzhong frowned and asked: "State Master, have you really agreed to take on the task of reshaping the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao?"

"Prime Minister, what's that expression on your face?"

The State Master sneered: "This State Master didn't agree a few days ago, and you cursed and blamed him, and insisted on pushing the matter onto this State Master."

"But now that this State Master has agreed, you have such an expression, as if you don't want this State Master to agree."

"This State Master is weird, what are you thinking?"

"You don't want the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao to be reshaped at all, and you don't want everyone to be granted the Holy Fruit of Heavenly Dao, do you?"

"This State Master is really doing this for you."

"You didn't end up being tricked by you, did you? "

Suddenly, many people looked at Situ Wenzhong with strange eyes.

Situ Wenzhong's face was livid: "National Master, you really have a good mouth, and your words are really sharp when you make up stories about people."

"But you don't need to sow discord. It's not your turn to judge how I do things."

"But you, I really want to know, how are you going to convince the Northern Territory Mingzun to help reshape the Holy Tree of Heaven?"

"Don't make it to the end, you actually have no way, just want to find an excuse to delay time, right?"

"Delay time?"

Shi Xuanji, who had been silent, suddenly spoke, and immediately attracted the attention of the ministers.

Shi Xuanji frowned slightly: "Prime Minister, you have made it clear, how is the National Master going to delay time on this matter?"

"Just now he said he would agree to this matter, and I was very happy, after all, the prince can finally stimulate his innate magical powers."

"I don't want to be happy for nothing in the end? "

Situ Wenzhong was also stunned. Didn't the queen usually never participate in the debate among the ministers? Why did she suddenly interrupt today?

And she was so comfortable interrupting!

She took over the conversation so well that people had to answer her.

So Situ Wenzhong immediately saluted: "Reporting to the queen, the national teacher sent people to the northern region, and it is impossible to go through the endless wasteland."

"But if it is through the sea, it will take at least a hundred years to go back and forth, and that is under the condition of constantly using the large teleportation talisman."

"If there are not enough large teleportation talismans, it will take a few hundred or even a thousand years."

"And in these years, the national teacher can still stand in the court. Where in the world is there such a good thing?"

"So that's it!"

Shi Xuanji suddenly realized, as if she had just realized this problem.

The general Qin Mu next to him also interrupted: "Yes, queen, if the national teacher is really allowed to get away with it like this, where is the face of our Shengshu court?"

"In my opinion, the national teacher can send people to the land of the demon tribe in the northern region, but he will be guilty until his people bring back the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao."

"We will temporarily deprive him of his position as national teacher and regent minister on the charge of not protecting the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao."

"When the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao is brought back, we will let him return to his post."

"Hahahaha..."

The national teacher laughed when he heard this: "What a good temporary deprivation of office, Qin Mu, you really have a good plan."

"If we really do as you said, even if the Holy Tree of Heavenly Dao is gone after a hundred years, If the Holy Tree is really brought back, can the National Master be reinstated? "

"By then, the National Master's position will probably have been taken by someone else, right?"

Qin Mu immediately smiled hypocritically and said, "National Master, there is nothing we can do about it. After all, you are now a criminal, and we can't let you stay in a high position forever, right?"

"Don't worry, this general and the other lords promise you that when the Heavenly Dao Holy Tree is brought back, you will definitely be reinstated, and we will never break our promise."

Situ Wenzhong and Shengshu Longyu heard this and immediately nodded together, with an expression that said I will definitely keep my promise.

Seeing this, Shi Xuanji also said quickly: "Yes, Imperial Master, I will also guarantee for you all, and I will definitely let you return to your post when the time comes."

"Of course, if you can successfully bring back the Holy Tree of Heaven in a shorter time, I will think that you are not only innocent, but also have made great contributions to the court."

"In that case, not only can you be reinstated, but you should also receive generous rewards. I believe that you all will not object."
