"Take down the Crown Prince, the Empress, Prime Minister Ye, and others."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The soldiers who were originally facing Ye Qingcheng and the others turned to the Empress and the others after hearing the Emperor's words.
The Empress and the Crown Prince were furious upon seeing this.
What are you doing?
"Hmph, do you think I can't see through your little tricks?"
"you…"
"Take them away and lock them in the dungeon."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"No! Father, I know I was wrong."
"Hmph, take him away."
Then.
The prince and his entourage were then taken away.
The Empress Dowager was also successfully buried in the imperial mausoleum.
Three days later.
The Empress and the Crown Prince were given poisoned wine; the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince were demoted to commoners and exiled to the frontier, never to return to the capital; and Consort Xuan was imprisoned in the Cold Palace forever.
The Duke's family, on the other hand, were beheaded and their heads displayed to the public.
One month later.
On the throne room.
"The Seventh Prince Qin Mohan is hereby appointed as Crown Prince, and Princess Consort Ye Qingcheng is hereby appointed as Crown Princess. They shall move into the East Palace from this day forward."
"Your subject and daughter-in-law thank Your Majesty."
"Alright, alright, get up!"
"Yes, thank you, Father."
"Your subjects pay their respects to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess."
"Please rise, everyone."
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness."
……………………………………
Two years later.
Seeing that Qin Mohan handled state affairs well, and with Ye Qingcheng by his side offering some unusual ideas and suggestions, the Emperor was impressed.
He felt it was time for him to abdicate, so he passed the throne to Qin Mohan.
After Qin Mohan ascended the throne, on Ye Qingcheng's advice, he implemented measures such as opening up maritime trade, establishing more schools, building water conservancy projects, reforming the tax system, and reducing punishments.
From then on, with Ye Qingcheng's suggestions and improvements,
The world is at peace, and the people live in contentment and happiness.
