Seeing him like this, Ling Changshi took out something from his bosom and handed it to him, "This was written by the Queen before she died. Now that Your Highness has returned, I will give it to you."
Qian Jue took the booklet in his hand, opened it and took a look, feeling a little surprised.
The handwriting on it is strong and powerful, recording the various problems existing in the policies of the Li Kingdom.
"The Empress and the Emperor were deeply in love, and he was allowed by the Emperor to participate in government affairs. This is what he wrote back then."
The Queen had originally planned to give the child to the heir apparent after the birth of the child, but unfortunately, she passed away before the child was born.
Later, when Feng Qingqing grew up and saw Feng Qingqing's character, he withdrew his plan to give this thing to Feng Qingqing.
Now, he has finally handed it over to His Highness personally, and the Queen can rest in peace in her grave.
I thought it was a diary or something, but it turns out the problem lies with the Li Kingdom. The Queen's doting on the Emperor is truly true, even allowing him to be involved in politics.
"Why didn't you give it to the Queen?"
Qian Jue looked at Ling Changshi, closed the book, and suddenly felt some interest in this father whom he had never met.
In his opinion, all the men in Li Country were delicate and lacked masculinity, but when he flipped through the booklet just now, he found that his father had unique insights and seemed to be a very talented person.
"I'm worried that if I give it to the emperor, she will give it to Feng Qingqing, and Feng Qingqing will use it to cause trouble for the people based on the problems above."
Seeing Qian Jue showing some interest, Ling Changshi said softly, "Your Highness, do you want to hear about the Queen?"
"Listen."
Ling Changshi's face lit up with joy, and he told the story about the king and queen.
"The Queen is not like other men in Li Country who only know how to embroider and mess around in the backyard. She has loved reading since she was young. Men who can't read will teach themselves, and if they don't understand something, they will ask the Emperor and the Prime Minister for advice."
"The Emperor has known him since childhood. Knowing that he likes reading, he often sends him books. He also likes martial arts, so the Emperor secretly teaches him."
Ling Changshi's face was filled with nostalgia, and he spoke softly, "The Queen is smart and a quick learner. He longs for the men of Tianqi to achieve great things and take the imperial examinations."
"But the good times didn't last long. When the master of the house found out that he was secretly studying and practicing martial arts, he thought he had no manners, so he burned all his books and locked him up in the house without allowing him to eat."
He still remembers that the Queen did not cry that day, but she seemed to have lost her soul. She did not speak, but just sat there in a daze.
"Is he not favored at home?"
Qian Jue's words brought Ling Changshi back to his senses, and Ling Changshi nodded.
"The head of the family doesn't like the Queen. She thinks she's not obedient enough, and she was furious when she found out about this. I was worried that if she continued to grieve like this, she might die, so I secretly went to find the Emperor's guards."
Ling Changshi gave a bitter smile, "I thought that if I could find the Emperor, who was still the Crown Princess, I could save the Queen, but I didn't expect it to backfire. The Emperor did know about this, but she is still the Crown Princess, and there is still pressure from the late Emperor."
Yu Yiluo blinked, "The late emperor wants to separate the two lovers?"
[Emma, why is it always this kind of drama. ]
"The late emperor hated men studying and writing, and believed that men should not be seen in public. After she knew about this, she stopped the emperor from seeing the queen, and even arranged a marriage for the queen, hoping to stop the emperor from looking for the queen."
"Then why did she become the Queen later?"
Qian Jue felt a little sad, as if he saw the man who tried to fight against the policies of the Li Kingdom and placed all his hopes on books.
"The Emperor knelt before the late Emperor's palace for two days, trying to get him to retract his decree. However, the late Emperor disliked the Empress to begin with, and this only made him even more enraged. Fortunately, Prince Rui appeared."
Ling Changshi's expression relaxed. "Prince Rui dotes on the Emperor and has a good relationship with the late Emperor. She made a bet with the late Emperor. If she wins, she will ask the late Emperor to revoke the marriage decree and issue another one granting marriage to the Empress and the Emperor."
Qian Jue poured tea for them and asked calmly, "What's the bet?"
Ling Changshi took the tea and moistened his throat, then said with a smile, "Let the Queen take the imperial examination. As long as she becomes the top scorer, I will agree to change the decree and appoint another one."
[It's quite inspiring. No wonder the Queen loves it so much.]
"The late emperor felt that the queen, who had never attended formal school, would surely lose if she competed with a group of diligently studied women, so he readily agreed. But in the end, the queen won."
After talking about these past events, Ling Changshi finished drinking the tea poured by Qian Jue and looked at Qian Jue.
"Actually, Your Highness, it's quite good for you to grow up in Tianqi."
The place where His Highness grew up is what the King and Queen have pursued and longed for all their lives.
"I think it's pretty good too," Qian Jue chuckled and looked at the booklet beside him.
"I've said what I need to say," Attendant Ling stood up. "If Your Highness doesn't want to sit in that position, then tell the Emperor. She owes you too much and will agree with your choice."
Ling Changshi paused and said seriously, "Thank you, Your Highness, for Yu'er's matter this time."
…
Yu Yiluo and his companions originally wanted to wait until Minister Jiang was beheaded before leaving, but they received the news from the released birds in advance.
Mu Xue and the third prince have already arrived in Xiangshan, and Mu Xue has been testing the medicine for several days.
Qian Jue looked at Yu Yiluo's serious expression and felt that something bad was going to happen.
"Something happened to Junior Sister and the others?"
Yu Yiluo released the bird in her hand and said, "The situation is not good. I will pack up tonight and set off to look for them tomorrow."
[The Third Emperor's wife doesn't have any martial arts skills and can't fight the beast. If she continues to delay, before the Third Emperor can be rescued, the Third Emperor's wife will be eaten by the beast.]
"Okay, I'll pack my things now."
Qian Jue stood up and looked at Concubine Xian, "Your Majesty, please pack Luo'er's things so I can take them with me tomorrow."
Empress Xian nodded and stood up to pack things for Yu Yiluo.
The prince looked at Yu Yiluo worriedly and asked, "How about letting Lin Qi follow you?"
"What about my brother the Crown Prince and my mother?"
The prince patted her head and chuckled, "I know martial arts, don't worry. I will explain the situation to my father when I return to the palace. I will first check whether what Prince Duan said is related to those refugees. You don't need to worry about it."
Yu Yiluo nodded. Her first reaction was that what Prince Duan said might be related to the refugees.
But he was not sure. Dad asked people to keep an eye on the refugees. If there was anything unusual, they should be notified.
…
At dawn, the Queen learned that several people were leaving and her face was full of reluctance.
"Cousin Yaoer, can't you stay a few more days?"
The Queen took her hand and said, "If you go back this time, it will be difficult for me to see you."
Empress Xian smiled and said, "It's not difficult. We still have things to do and can't delay any longer."
"Cousin, are you still holding a grudge against me from what happened before?"
Concubine Xian shook her head. "We have also concealed something from you. We left early because of something important."
"Then take care of yourselves."
The empress let go of Concubine Xian's hand, looked up at Qian Jue, was silent for a while, and walked in front of him.
"Don't you want to talk to me?"
Qian Jue looked back at her with a gentle voice.
"I don't want to do what the imperial edict says."
"Is that what you're talking about?"
The Queen lowered her eyes sadly, "If you don't want to, I won't force you."
