Lin Yushu looked at the shock in the eyes of the ministers below, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly: "I know that you don't want me to be the emperor. You don't want a woman to sit on your heads and become your master, the master of the entire country."
The ministers below, seeing that the situation was hopeless, could only prostrate themselves on the ground and cry out, "We dare not!"
Lin Yushu chuckled, his eyes showing a hint of indifference: "But I don't care. Don't you want me to be the emperor? Don't you want a female emperor? I will issue an edict. From now on, only women can inherit the throne after me."
Didn't she want women to suppress them? She insisted on appointing women as officials and allowing women to take the imperial examinations on the same basis as men.
Lin Yushu looked at the people below with disbelief on their faces, smiled lightly, and said murderously: "Not only do I want to be the emperor, not only do I want a woman to be the emperor, I will also hold a special examination for women, so that women can stand in the same court with you. But unfortunately, you can't see this."
The ministers below all prostrated themselves on the ground, shouting in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, please reconsider."
Lin Yushu sneered, looking at the ministers below with a bit of indifference in his eyes: "Chen Ze, Ming Han, Jinyiwei listen to your orders!"
Chen Ze and Ming Han knelt down facing Lin Yushu. Lin Yushu looked at them and said leisurely, "Those of the three Yi tribes who participated in this rebellion today will be thrown into the Heavenly Prison and await punishment."
When Lin Yushu said this, all the civil and military officials looked at him in disbelief.
Chen Ze lowered his head and said respectfully, "I obey your order, but if this happens, there will be many vacancies in the court. What should we do?"
Lin Yushu glanced at Chen Ze and smiled leisurely: "There are so many people in the court who can do things. If there are not enough, then we can transfer them from the local areas. If there are local officials who do a good job, they can be promoted directly."
She slowly stood up and took one last look at the civil and military officials: "Dismiss the court."
Wang Mingyi's sharp voice resounded throughout the court: "Dismiss the court—"
Lin Yushu walked quickly to her dragon chariot and looked at the hall behind her. From today on, she was no longer a despised puppet emperor, but a real emperor with real power.
But this real power came from Chen Ze, and Lin Yushu felt a little unhappy.
Because she knew very well that as the emperor, although she seemed to have taken back power from the officials.
But Shen Ze is the one who controls the lifeline of the entire country.
Although he is very respectful to me now, it is too illusory.
The real lesson taught her that she could no longer trust men.
The consequences of trusting men have always been bad.
In every world, I will be bullied over and over again by this group of heartless people.
Therefore, she must take the initiative into her own hands.
If not, we will just be at the mercy of others as before.
Lin Yushu's eyes were obscure and unclear.
I just don’t know whether Chen Ze’s subordinates are absolutely loyal to him, the Ninth Thousand Years Old?
This time in the court, she could see how powerful Shen Ze was.
Almost all the military officers here are his men, otherwise it would not be so easy for him to quell the rebellion.
It would be best if power could be transferred to one's own hands peacefully.
"Your Majesty, we have arrived at the Imperial Study."
As soon as Wang Mingyi finished speaking, the dragon sedan chair landed. Just as Lin Yushu was about to get off, Wang Mingyi's hand reached out to support her.
Lin Yushu helped Wang Mingyi down from the sedan chair, looked at the empty palace behind him, and said nonchalantly, "Wang Mingyi, don't you think this palace is a little too empty?"
Wang Mingyi instantly understood what Lin Yushu meant. Lin Yushu wanted to participate in the talent show.
But Lin Yushu was different from other emperors. She chose a man, but which man would be willing to give up his bright future to please a woman in the harem?
Even if this woman is the emperor.
Lin Yushu chuckled: "What do you think, should I appoint a queen?"
Wang Mingyi didn't say anything, and Lin Yushu didn't need her to speak at this time, because His Majesty already had the answer in his mind.
Why do we need to ask for his opinion anymore?
Lin Yushu looked at the position in the harem. She didn't want to accept another man in this life. Although Shen Ze was not good, he was now under her control.
Even if he doesn't want to be obedient, the poisonous insect in his body will make him obey.
Lin Yushu's lips curled up into a faint smile: "When Chen Ze comes back, ask him to come here to see me immediately."
Wang Mingyi was stunned, and he already knew who Lin Yushu wanted to make queen.
But this was his master's business, and all he could do was obey: "Your servant obeys your command."
Lin Yushu walked into the imperial study, which had changed a lot.
Everything was carefully selected, much better than the random arrangement of things in the imperial study before.
When she was looking at the memorial in her hand, Chen Ze and Ming Han had already arrived in the imperial prison.
Those failed princes and the ministers who participated in today's incident were all imprisoned here.
As for their families, Shen Ze had already arranged for the Jinyiwei to capture them.
Chen Ze looked at the princes in the imperial prison, a sharp look flashing in his eyes.
He had never shown such sharpness in front of His Majesty.
King Ning looked at Chen Ze standing in front of him with his eyes full of resentment: "Chen Ze, why did you bring us here? Are you going to rebel?"
The King of Han sneered, "Chen Ze, you insult us like this, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world?"
Chen Ze looked at their helpless and furious expressions, the corners of his lips curled up, and there was a gentle smile in his eyes: "Your Majesty has ordered that all the princes and their families who participated in the rebellion today shall be executed."
He looked at the princes in disbelief and sneered, "Any minister who participated in the rebellion will have their entire clan exterminated, all officers will be dismissed, and for the next three generations they will be prohibited from taking the imperial examinations, serving in the army, holding official positions, or studying."
Shen Ze finished speaking word by word, and a slight smile flashed in his eyes as he looked at the faces of these vassal kings that instantly became extremely ugly.
Prince Ning sneered: "The emperor's order? Isn't it your own order, Shen Ze? Doesn't the little emperor still listen to you? Besides, she is just a princess. What qualifications does she have to be the emperor?"
Chen Ze looked at Prince Ning, a sharp glint in his eyes: "Send Prince Ning on his way."
He lowered his head and looked at Prince Ning: "Prince Ning, no, you have now been demoted to a commoner by His Majesty. You should stay in this imperial prison and experience the taste of my prison."
Chen Ze glanced at Ming Han behind him and said, "Serve Prince Ning well and don't let him die too sadly."
Minghan nodded: "Yes."
Chen Ze glanced at Ming Han, smiled, and pulled the Jinyiwei commander's token from his waist and handed it to him: "From now on, you will command the Jinyiwei. You don't need to report anything to me, just report directly to His Majesty."
Ming Han was stunned and looked at Chen Ze. The Ninth Thousand Year Old Man was trying to sideline him!
Ming Han wanted to speak, but Chen Ze didn't turn around and looked at the imperial prison: "If you want me to come here as well, then don't accept the order."
