Because of Ye Wanwan's words, Concubine Li couldn't eat enough and was not in the mood to greet her. It was only the two brothers Zhao Zhuo and Princess Fuying who talked to each other that kept the banquet from going cold.
After finally finishing eating, Ye Wanwan left without staying long. Zhao Zhuo stood up and said, "I'll see you off."
Seeing that he obviously had something to say, Ye Wanwan did not refuse and allowed him to follow her out.
Because Zhao Zhuo saw her off, Ye Wanwan did not take a chariot but walked.
After walking a long distance in silence, Zhao Zhuo finally spoke: "My mother-in-law really wants to have a good relationship with the empress, and Fu Ying also likes the empress very much."
Ye Wanwan walked slowly without looking back: "I know."
Zhao Zhuo paused. She knew, she knew, but she still chose to be so indifferent... This was rejection.
Qianyuan Palace was not far from Guanju Palace, so Zhao Zhuo had to go back this way. He continued to walk forward, but remained silent until he reached the entrance of Guanju Palace, when Zhao Zhuo stopped Ye Wanwan.
, looked at her intently: "My queen, you don't have to leave the palace. As long as I am the emperor, I will ensure that you are as honorable as my mother and concubine, and I will never let you suffer any injustice."
Ye Wanwan curled her lips: "The fact that you said this proves that my vision is correct, but I have made it very clear that I don't want to stay in the harem anymore because of your father, I am trapped
After being here for so many years, there is no reason why I should spend the rest of my life here if he dies. Besides, you just promised me, so you are not joking!"
Zhao Zhuo looked at her deeply: "Is this palace already like a prison to you?"
"What else?" Ye Wanwan looked at him with open eyes: "The palace is a cage, and the throne is a shackled cage. From the moment you sit on it, you will not be able to escape until your death."
Zhao Zhuo lowered his hands and clenched his fist tightly: "Your Majesty has made up her mind to go, I'm afraid I won't be able to persuade her... I know..."
Zhao Zhuo left, looking very lonely behind him.
Qingsha looked at the young emperor walking away and sighed: "My dear, the emperor is actually quite good."
It is rare for an emperor to be kind-hearted, have a conscience and know how to be grateful.
Ye Wanwan twitched her lips: "I didn't say anything bad about him."
It's just that the position of emperor... can eat people. No matter how good a person becomes an emperor, his conscience will be slowly devoured.
Emperors are ruthless. It is not that the person who becomes an emperor is born ruthless, but that he will gradually become ruthless after becoming an emperor.
Power, desire, selfishness, greed, after becoming an emperor, the evil in human nature will be completely stimulated. If you can control it, you are a wise king. If you cannot control it, who knows what will happen?
Zhao Zhuo's present does not mean that his desires will not stand the test in the future. Moreover, she has her own plans. She cannot choose to stay in the palace just because Zhao Zhuo is good. Zhao Zhuo is not that important to her.
Zhao Zhuo finally began to handle government affairs as an emperor. On the third day, he held a ceremony to worship the heaven. Under the protection of the King of Jin, it was held as scheduled without any interruption.
After offering sacrifices to heaven, the imperial edict was announced. The first imperial edict carried out the will of heaven, benefited the people, and stabilized the country; the second imperial edict was to grant amnesty to the world, and exiled all the officials of the Leng family; the third imperial edict was to pursue filial piety and respect the Queen Mother Ye as the queen mother.
The Empress Dowager, Li Fei is the Empress Dowager.
The fourth imperial edict was to redress Ye Wanwan's injustice, and in compliance with Ye Wanwan's wishes, she was not named the Imperial Concubine, but instead was named Mrs. Anguo and granted residence in Qiwu Villa.
Madam Anguo, Ye Wanwan didn't like this title that much, but it was unrealistic to want to return to the Ye family as a daughter. Madam was just madam, and she finally got rid of her status as a concubine.
