Inside and outside the Zhengde Hall.
Those young people would pretend to be cultured from time to time, mainly because they wanted to show off their talents.
If a lady from some family takes a fancy to him, then fate will come.
About half an hour later.
Ying Yuan and Daji arrived late.
Everyone only heard a series of sharp voices, and immediately fell to their knees:
"Your Majesty and the Queen have arrived!"
"His Majesty..."
“…”
When one eunuch finished speaking, another eunuch would continue speaking.
Whether it was the guards on both sides of the corridor or the maids in the palace, they all knelt on the ground after hearing it.
Don't dare to hesitate even a little.
When Ying Yuan and Daji arrived at the Zhengde Hall, the young people bowed their heads and shouted:
"Long live His Majesty, and a thousand years of life for the Queen!"
Hearing the sound, Ying Yuan held Daji's delicate hand and got off the imperial chariot together.
The former stood in front of the crowd, waved his hand, and said, "Everyone, stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up one after another.
Because of the memories of his previous life, Ying Yuan saw many young people who seemed familiar to him.
Daji ordered people to bring some food and tea, and said to everyone with a smile:
"You are the future of Great Qin. I am very pleased that we can gather together today on the occasion of the Queen Mother's birthday.
When I came here, I heard that many of you were discussing important political matters of the current dynasty. Someone told me that it was very bad to discuss the affairs of the state without permission.
However, I do think there's nothing wrong with young people knowing a little about government, as long as they serve the Great Qin and care about the country.
No matter what you said today, this palace and His Majesty will not blame you."
Hearing this, everyone was immediately grateful and bowed, saying:
"Thank you, my lady!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Your Majesty!"
“…”
What Daji sent was not ordinary food.
They are all fine products tributed from all over the country.
The price is also not cheap.
Even a piece of candied fruit could be worth half a tael of silver.
"The Queen Mother's birthday banquet is still an hour or two away. You can explore the area and someone will show you the way."
Daji gave these young people the greatest tolerance.
Everything she did was for Ying Yuan, without any selfish motives.
Cai Wenji, who was standing on the other side of the pavilion, kept her head down and did not dare to look at Ying Yuan.
Just now, she saw the stunning Daji.
Hearing the other person's words again, she couldn't help but murmur in her heart: "She is worthy of being the woman he chose. Perhaps, only a woman like this is worthy of staying by his side."
She clenched the jade pendant in her hand again.
She knew she would meet Ying Yuan when she came to Beijing this time, but she didn't expect to see him so soon.
"Your Majesty, please say a few words as a warning to these young people." Daji said with a smile.
Hearing this, Ying Yuan nodded and began to speak at length: "I am very happy to see you, because it is you who foreshadow the vigorous vitality of my Great Qin.
This year has been anything but ordinary for our Great Qin. First, there was a national crisis, then a national war. Not only did it cost the people a lot of money and labor, but outside the city of Xianyang, many places were already littered with corpses.
Everyone calls me a tyrant, but I think they are right. After all, it is me who has failed to fulfill the responsibilities of an emperor.
I am not a good emperor, nor do I want to be a good emperor. If all the people are guilty, the fault lies with me.
Today, on the occasion of the Queen Mother's birthday, I hope that you young people can get together and talk less about state affairs and more about love and romance.
After all, the most important responsibility on your shoulders right now is not family and national affairs, but the flourishing of nature."
Ying Yuan thought that there was nothing wrong with what he said.
First of all, make sure of your position: you are a tyrant.
I don't want to be a wise ruler either.
Secondly, if I admit my mistakes, I am not fit to be an emperor, which is why disasters happen so frequently in our country.
Secondly, it dampens the enterprising spirit of young people.
If you put state affairs first in everything you do, I will believe that the Great Qin has successors.
That won't work.
Therefore, I don’t want you to talk about state affairs. I want to use romantic matters to wear down your fighting spirit.
Young people should play and do less serious work.
However, to those young people, including Daji, the meaning was this.
First of all, His Majesty is very humble. He not only encourages young people to achieve great things in the future, but also takes the initiative to assume his own responsibilities.
This is something that not an ordinary emperor can do.
After all, to put it in a broader sense, it is equivalent to a confession of guilt.
But would those who are familiar with court affairs think so?
No!
They would think that His Majesty is concerned about the country and the people, and even wants to take all the responsibility for the suffering of the people.
Secondly, Your Majesty said that you don’t want to be a good emperor, but does Your Majesty really not want to be one?
Not necessarily.
This reveals His Majesty's helplessness about the current situation.
Your Majesty used his seven-foot body to shoulder everything for the people of the country.
What is the ultimate goal?
It is for the purpose of allowing the future generations of the Qin Dynasty to live a stable life.
Let young people have time to talk about love.
Furthermore, Wan Fang is guilty... This clearly means that Your Majesty is not only willing to take responsibility, but can also take responsibility for mistakes that are not your own.
Isn’t this the behavior of a benevolent monarch?
Your Majesty is a good emperor!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
