Mrs. Sheng also said so, and Aunt Jin stopped worrying and sat down directly.
Soon, the palace servants brought up the food.
The table was filled with a dazzling array of food, and the appearance of some of the dishes was obviously different from the others.
With just one glance, Sang Jueqian knew that these dishes must have been made by Madam Sheng.
Sang Jueqian looked at Li Junyan, and Li Junyan happened to look at him too.
The two looked at each other without saying anything, but they understood each other very well. They picked up their chopsticks at the same time and picked up the food made by Mrs. Sheng.
After putting it in his mouth, Sang Jueqian had only a feeling that it was just as he expected.
The taste of the food was just as she had guessed, not as delicious as the ones made by the royal chef, but definitely not bad either.
You can even taste the flavor of home from it.
No one spoke much during the meal.
It wasn't until after dinner, when they sat down in another room, that Madam Sheng spoke with emotion, "Although I've thought before that it would be wonderful if you could ascend the throne, I never imagined it would actually come true. If your mother knew about this, she would surely be very pleased."
After saying that, Mrs. Sheng looked at Sang Jueqian again and held Sang Jueqian's hand.
"Qianqian, you have helped Lezhi a lot. When you become the Queen of the Great Zhou, your life will be even harder."
After hearing what Mrs. Sheng said, Sang Jueqian didn't know what to say for a moment.
She's not just a queen...
Just as I was hesitating whether to speak, Li Junyan spoke first.
"Qianqian is more than just the Queen of Da Zhou."
Madam Sheng smiled and looked at Li Junyan, "I know, she is also your queen and your wife."
Li Junyan shook his head again, "No, I have decided that Qianqian and I will be called the Second Emperor from now on. She and I have the same rights."
Mrs. Sheng, who was smiling just now, froze in an instant after hearing this.
Aunt Jin standing by was even more shocked, with her mouth wide open.
This is simply unheard of!
Throughout the ages, in every dynasty, although there have been queen mothers or empresses in power, no one has ever usurped power.
Although Sang Jueqian is a goddess, she is still a woman after all!
How can a woman be called the second emperor together with the emperor?
After being surprised, Mrs. Sheng did not think of stopping him, but just looked at Li Junyan with a worried look.
"Lezhi, I know you and the goddess have a good relationship, and I also know that the goddess is very powerful. But the goddess is a woman after all. If you insist on doing this, I'm afraid the civil and military officials in the court will not agree."
Li Junyan looked straight at Madam Sheng. "Madam, regardless of what those people in the court think, would you object?"
"this......"
Mrs. Sheng was just shocked and didn't think about whether to object or not.
When asked this by Li Junyan, she didn't know how to answer and subconsciously looked at Aunt Jin.
Madam Sheng and Aunt Jin looked at each other, both with shock and deep thought in their eyes.
The most important thing is that after thinking about it carefully, they actually didn't want to object.
Who says women are inferior to men?
In the past, they were trapped in the harem and there was no way out.
After leaving the harem for a few months, I realized that in this vast world, women like us can also make great achievements.
Sang Jueqian is a goddess and so powerful. She saved the entire Great Zhou. Even if she really becomes the empress, she deserves it!
Madam Sheng was not a woman of traditional ideas, otherwise she would not have been willing to fake her own death to escape, let alone teach women.
After figuring it out, he immediately said, "Since you already have an idea, then go for it. I support you!"
Hearing what Mrs. Sheng said, Li Junyan showed a smile that said "as expected".
"I knew that Madam would support us."
Sang Jueqian also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Mrs. Sheng is not Li Junyan's biological mother, she is not her real mother-in-law.
But after all, Madam Sheng raised Li Junyan and they had a very close relationship. Sang Jueqian really didn't want this incident to affect their relationship.
"But," Madam Sheng said again, "even though I agreed, it's useless! The most important thing is those ministers in the court..."
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Sheng looked worried.
Although the emperor is the one who has the final say, he cannot act on his own if his ministers oppose him.
Madam Sheng had been in the harem for decades and had witnessed with her own eyes that the late emperor made a decision but it was opposed by his ministers and eventually the decision was left unresolved.
Li Junyan's expression turned serious. "I understand what Madam said. Since I have made this decision, I am already prepared to deal with it."
The former emperor would change his mind and hesitate because of the opposition of his ministers, but he would never do that.
Looking at Li Junyan's expression, Madam Sheng sighed, "I hope things can go more smoothly."
It has come to this point, whether it goes smoothly or not, things must continue.
After chatting for a while, it was already late.
After instructing Madam Sheng to have a good rest, Li Junyan took Sang Jueqian and left Ci'an Palace.
Li Junyan took Sang Jueqian to his bedroom, but they slept in different rooms.
There was not much time left for them to sleep, so the two of them went back to their room without saying much.
After washing up and lying on the bed, Sang Jueqian was excited and nervous, tossing and turning but couldn't fall asleep.
