"Mother, do you know what you are saying?"
Murong Ye raised his eyes suddenly and looked at Zuo Yexuan in disbelief.
"Yes, you heard it right." Zuo Yexuan shrugged calmly and said in a firm tone.
"My mother advises you to let those children suffer so as not to waste money on such useless people. Don't you agree?"
"Mother? You..." Murong Ye looked at Zuo Yexuan in surprise, his face full of disbelief.
For a long, long time...
Murong Ye gritted his teeth and shook his head with a determined look.
"No, mother, please forgive me for not being able to obey your order."
"I will find a way to take care of all the money they need."
Zuo Yexuan's face turned cold when she heard this.
"What if I order you to do that?" Zuo Yexuan scolded.
“…” Murong Ye.
He was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head resolutely.
"Mother, please forgive me for not being able to obey your order."
Murong Ye raised his eyes, his gaze firm and stubborn.
Zuo Yexuan glared at him, and their eyes seemed to be exchanging fire in the air, sending out crackling sparks.
…
"Good boy, you've really grown up!"
After a while, Zuo Yexuan suddenly laughed, and her laughter sounded like a warm spring in winter, making a clear sound.
"You are truly a good son to your mother, as you are able to break through confusion, see your inner self clearly, and stick to your heart."
"He will definitely be a good emperor in the future."
"Remember the story mother once told you. An emperor should not be soft-hearted, but that is for external affairs. Internally, you should be kind to the world and respect the wise and humble."
"Of course, you also have to strike a balance, using both kindness and force to ensure that your subordinates obey you."
Zuo Yexuan looked at Murong Ye with a smile on her face, feeling quite relieved and satisfied that her eldest son had grown up.
"Mother... So, you were testing me just now?"
Murong Ye suddenly realized and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his back.
Fortunately, fortunately, the aggressive mother just now was too scary.
If you don’t know, you might think that someone has taken over my mother’s body.
But, why do these words of the Queen Mother sound a bit like... instructions for funeral arrangements?
"Mother, why do you say that? Do you want to leave the palace?"
Murong Ye reacted slightly and guessed it immediately.
"For the first half of my life, I was constrained by imperial power and had to marry someone I didn't love."
"Fortunately, you have grown up. You will become an excellent emperor. I can finally decide the rest of my life on my own."
"I've been trapped in this world for over 30 years. I want to leave and live my own life."
Zuo Yexuan said with a faint smile.
"Mother, actually..." Murong Ye hesitated to speak.
Zuo Yexuan waved her hand, interrupting what he was about to say.
"I know what you want to say."
"Ye'er, some things require fate."
"Besides, he deserves a better woman instead of wasting his life with me."
Zuo Yexuan smiled meaningfully.
"Then... Mother, where do you want to go?"
"Can I still visit you often in the future?"
Murong Ye's tone was a little sad.
"That's natural..."
"Don't worry, Queen Mother hasn't even seen you and Yuyao's wedding yet, so how could she bear to leave?"
"However, the Queen Mother may change her appearance and have a new face. It depends on whether you can recognize her by then."
Zuo Yexuan said this, raising her eyebrows and smiling, her face full of anticipation.
"Then, mother, where do you want to go?" Murong Ye asked persistently.
"secret!"
"Haha, when I become famous all over the world, you will know."
Zuo Yexuan smiled mysteriously.
"Also, let me remind you, kid, if you really want to rescue those 'barrel' children, it's best to seek help from Candy."
"As long as she helps you, even if you are a pig, she can make you admired by thousands of people."
Murong Ye: Mother, are you polite...
While the two were talking, Wang Defa's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
"Your Majesty, General Jiang requests an audience."
General Jiang, also known as Jiang Wanyue.
After Murong Ye's coronation ceremony, the first thing he did was to appoint Jiang Tiantian as the national teacher. The second thing he did was to ignore all objections and appoint Jiang Wanyue as the Grand Marshal, a second-rank official, to assist him.
At this moment, hearing Jiang Wanyue asking for a meeting outside the door, Murong Ye immediately let someone in.
Jiang Wanyue pushed the door open and walked in. She didn't seem surprised at all to see Murong Ye and Zuo Yexuan in the imperial study.
"Your humble servant pays homage to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager." Jiang Wanyue bowed to the two of them.
Murong Ye quickly asked her to stand up.
"Your Majesty, for some unknown reason, a large vat suddenly appeared in my residence today. The water inside seems to be emitting a shimmering light... It seems to be the legendary spiritual spring water."
"My family and I tried drinking a little bit and felt refreshed instantly."
"My second uncle lost his arm on the battlefield years ago. Today, he happened to come to my house and was extremely thirsty, so he drank the spiritual spring water."
"Your Majesty, guess what?" Jiang Wanyue asked at the right time.
“…” Murong Ye’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
Zuo Yexuan's body was also trembling slightly, and she felt very uncomfortable trying to hold back her laughter.
This spiritual spring water did not fall from the sky. It most likely came from the space of that little guy Jiang Tiantian.
In the whole audience, only Xiaotao and Wang Defa stretched their necks, looking extremely anxious.
"Oh, what's wrong? Is there something special about the spiritual spring water?" Murong Ye cooperated.
"Your Majesty, after my second uncle drank the spiritual spring water, his entire body began to glow. His severed limbs regenerated within half a minute!"
