The old emperor finally waved his hand and said that this matter was not a trivial matter and needed further discussion. He kept the censor and the minister of rites and let the others go.

Su Juan frowned, [The old emperor is so entangled. If the censor opens his mouth again, I'm afraid he will listen to his slander! ]

The imperial censor in the palace was so angry that his forehead jumped: What slander! I am devoted to the court and loyal to Your Majesty. What I said is from the bottom of my heart and for the good of Your Majesty!

The old emperor frowned. How could I be so soft-hearted? If what the censor said was unreasonable, I would not listen.

[The old man might even kill Jian. ]

Censor: "I am not the kind of person who would not value his life!"

The other court officials nodded repeatedly: That's right! If there are any words that His Majesty doesn't listen to, we will kill you for the remonstrance!

So annoying.

The more Su Juan thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't just sit there and wait. [If these people die in protest, I won't be able to save them even if I have ten mouths!]

[No, I have to think of a way]

Hearing this, the censor pricked up his ears subconsciously. This Su Juan never had any good ideas, so he had to be on guard.

The old emperor was curious, what solution could this girl come up with?

The other court officials also looked at Su Juan, wanting to see what solution she could come up with. After all, the decision was made by His Majesty, not the Censor.

After Su Juan came out of the hall, he did not leave. Instead, he stood outside the hall, lifted up his official robe, and knelt down outside the hall with a plop!

The eunuch was startled and hurried to help.

However, Su Juan shouted in front of everyone outside the palace, "Grandfather, please give justice to those who died unjustly in the Pei family, and give justice to those who were demoted, exiled, and held accountable because of the Pei family!"

"Give the people of the world the truth!"

The officials outside the palace were all shocked, thinking that Princess Jinyang was forcing His Majesty to issue an edict.

The censor was amazed: How could Princess Jinyang do this?

Old Emperor: "If soft tactics don't work, try hard tactics?"

Am I the kind of person who gives in easily?

[Follow the path of the censor and leave him no way to go]

Censor: ""

All the other court officials wanted to give a thumbs up to Su Juan, but it had to be Su Juan.

[I will kneel here today. If you have the guts, come out and kneel with me. Let’s see if your old arms and legs can last longer or I, who am still in my twenties, can kneel longer.]

The censor's face turned black. Who wants to kneel with you?

The old emperor's expression was not much better. What Su Juan was kneeling for was not the censor's old arms and legs, but my life!

The eunuchs hurried into the hall to ask for instructions. After all, this was His Majesty's treasure. If anything went wrong while kneeling, those of them serving outside would be killed as well.

"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess is kneeling outside."

The old emperor had a dark face and shouted in a stern voice, "Let her kneel! I want to see how long she can kneel!"

Su Juan, who was outside the palace, heard these words clearly.

The ministers nearby were all worried about Su Juan and advised, "Your Highness, please don't upset His Majesty. Get up quickly. Kneeling like this is harmful to your health."

Su Juan did not move at all. "My lords, there is no need to persuade me. I must ask the Emperor's grandfather for the result of today's matter."

The court officials sighed and wondered why this was necessary.

At this time, in the palace, the censor continued what he had just said, "Your Majesty, I think that you should pardon the Pei family, provide more relief to the descendants of the Pei family, and posthumously confer titles on Pei Lianshan and his people to show your majesty's grace."

The old emperor thought about it and felt that what the censor said was feasible. He could just give more compensation and posthumously confer the title of first-rank marquis to comfort the Pei family. There was no need to make the late emperor lose face and damage the dignity of the royal family.

[This censor will definitely ask for posthumous honors and compensation. The whole family died unjustly, what is the point of posthumous honors? How can you eat it? ]

The censor added, "Your Majesty, the late emperor's reputation must not be damaged!"

[We need to let the people of the world know that the late emperor wrongly convicted and killed the entire family of a meritorious official. Now the descendants are still trying to cover it up. Not to mention the late emperor's face, even the old emperor, who is still in power, is going to lose face.]

"Your Majesty, the royal family's reputation is at stake!"

[The emperor has lost face, let alone the royal family. ]

"Even if the people say a few words, it doesn't matter"

[Everyone will spit at you to death, you treacherous minister who slanders me all day long. ]

The old emperor picked up the teacup and used the action of drinking tea to hide the curve of his lips. He could hardly hold it back.

The Minister of Rites standing by was still dignified. Although he wanted to laugh, he could not lose his manners in the palace, let alone lose his composure in front of his colleagues.

The censor was almost mad with anger. He was kneeling outside the palace, but he was not quiet at all!

At this moment, his every word was blocked and he couldn't utter a single word.

When he came out of the hall, he glared at Su Juan fiercely. This Princess Jinyang woman was really noisy!

Su Juan was glared at, feeling innocent, [Why are you glaring at me? Am I kneeling here to block your way? ]

[Or do you want to kneel together? ]

The censor quickened his pace, fearing that if he stayed any longer he would be tempted to kill someone.

[Hey, don't leave, stay and kneel together, you'll have a companion. ]

The censor turned a deaf ear and endured it in silence: Only villains and women are difficult to raise!

After the censor left, the old emperor summoned the Imperial Observatory again. When they entered, they did not dare to stare at Su Juan, but were muttering in their hearts, why is Princess Jinyang kneeling outside?

Could it be that she was punished by His Majesty? Then will this princess still be crowned as the Crown Princess?

Obviously, these people's worries were unnecessary. When he met the person, the old emperor ordered the Imperial Observatory to select an auspicious day for the ceremony of enthroning the Crown Princess. He also asked the Ministry of Rites to consult the classics, formulate regulations, write an edict and send it to all states and counties, and sent people to purchase various ceremonial robes and crowns.

There were so many trivial matters that a lot of people had to be transferred from other places to the Ministry of Rites. The old emperor asked the Minister of Rites to take care of it himself and not to be careless about any matter.

When several ministers came out, they saw Su Juan still kneeling outside the hall and shook their heads repeatedly. He was about to be canonized, but he still made people kneel like this. It was really hard to figure out what His Majesty was thinking.

Su Juan knelt outside for several hours, and the old emperor listened to Su Juan's chatter inside for several hours.

Her knees are not tired, but the old emperor's ears are tired.

News spread quickly in the palace, and the queen soon found out. But after all, it was a matter of the previous dynasty, and the harem was not allowed to interfere in state affairs. Although she felt sad, she resisted the urge to go. She instructed the palace maids to send some things and asked someone to keep an eye on it. If there was anything wrong, she would call Imperial Physician Liang in time.

The palace servants brought cushions, cloaks, tea and snacks. Since it was the Queen's order, there was no fear of His Majesty finding out.

Su Juan’s main point is that you can’t go hungry even if you kneel down, so he accepted all of it.

She touched her belly and burped, "I'm really full."

The old emperor: ""

[I don’t want to accept any of them, because it would make me look like I have no determination and sincerity]

The old emperor frowned and glared: It’s your goodness you knew it.

[But everyone was so enthusiastic, and I was too shy to refuse.]

The old emperor laughed angrily, are you shameless?

You are thin-skinned!
