Chapter 95 Update 1



"What did you say?" Wei Xuanning thought he didn't hear clearly.

Yurong repeated, "You heard me right. I am talking about the common ruler of the world."

"You, how come..." Wei Xuanning looked at her for a long time, and suddenly lost all sleepiness. He sat up from the bed, "How come you have such an ambition?"

All the things he had doubted before seemed to be connected in an instant. He often wondered why the fourth branch of the Yang family was so mediocre, but the daughter she gave birth to, Yurong, was smarter than anyone else, had an extraordinary appearance, and acted decisively. If she were a man, she would have the talent to govern a country.

Only the virtuous Empress could have such an idea. Even if the Emperor wanted to depose the Crown Prince, he would still treat the Empress differently. There is even the intention of the court to welcome the two saints.

That is to say, let the emperor and empress rule together.

This queen has quite a few followers behind her, she is not an ordinary woman.

He had only seen the Empress two or three times, but his memory was quite good. Although the Empress was old enough to be so majestic that men outside dared not glimpse her face, when comparing her appearance with Yurong, especially the widow's peak, it was exactly the same as the Empress's.

Yurong saw his eyes and smiled knowingly: "It's just as you think. Don't worry, this matter won't affect you. But if I gain power in the future, you will definitely be very successful."

This is not a joke. In her previous life, after she took power, countless men recommended themselves to her for sex.

Even her family had recommended many brave men to her, not to mention the princess and the royal family who tried every possible way to please her. She was about fifty years old at that time, but she looked like she was thirty, and many men were attracted to her.

However, there were many important matters in the court, and she felt that although those men were good, they were not a match for her, so she looked down on them.

It's rare that Wei Xuanning and she get along so well in everything, so she will definitely make this promise to Wei Xuanning.

But Wei Xuanning was dumbfounded, "Yurong, what on earth do you want to do? What are you doing?"

"Hey, just wait and see, it's going to be bloody soon."

In the second year of Feng'an, Crown Prince Li Xun was deposed and retreated to the old capital of Yuzhang. It was from this time that he plotted rebellion and spied on the emperor's whereabouts.

Li Xun had no fault with this evidence. He had always been an indecisive person and always dragged his feet in doing things. Emperor Feng'an had been good to the second prince for a long time, so it was normal for him to have rebellious intentions. Moreover, he was the legitimate son of the Empress Dowager, and there were many people around him.

However, none of the Queen's truly useful followers stood up to speak up for the Prince.

Wei Xiang couldn't help but said to Wei Xuan Ning in confusion: "It's really strange. The Queen is the Crown Prince's biological mother, why did she do nothing about this matter and let the Emperor decide. This is not like her behavior."

When this queen was the Princess of Han, she helped Queen Mother Shen, who was so unknown, to become the queen. She was definitely not a mediocre person.

Moreover, the emperor and the empress had a very harmonious relationship. Upon hearing the news, the emperor even lived in the empress's bedroom and announced to the world that he was only disappointed in the prince and still respected his wife.

He even allowed the Empress to attend court, but many noble families opposed this and were ruthlessly retaliated by Emperor Feng'an.

Even someone like Wei Rui could not understand this situation. In just a few months, the Wang family of Langya, who was engaged to Wei Yanjun, also lost someone.

Wei Xuanning sighed, "Dad, we are subjects after all, so we should not worry about the royal family's affairs. The more violent they make trouble, the better."

He has a huge secret, but he can't tell it directly.

Wei Rui smiled bitterly: "You don't know that the emperor originally liked the second prince, and we also placed people around the second prince, but these days he seems to have had ideas about the third prince. Alas, the emperor's mind is hard to predict."

Speaking of which, the emperor and empress were really ruthless. Even after deposing the crown prince, they still had the same goal and never showed mercy to the aristocratic families.

The Second Prince is soft-hearted, and people with soft hearts have weak wills, which is actually a good thing for the aristocratic families. Moreover, after the Emperor passes away, the Empress will not be the Second Prince's biological mother, and will not be able to control the adult prince. This is a great thing for the aristocratic families.

He sighed, "Xuan Ning, please take the Second Prince into consideration when you act in the future."

Wei Xuan frowned: "Dad, are you only caught up in party struggles now, instead of fighting for justice in the world?" Protecting the family is important, but there must also be right and wrong. If everything is judged by stance, what will happen to the world?

Just like this time when he was in charge of the Northern Army and the Eastern Army, although they were all private soldiers of aristocratic families, most of these people were also made up of poor people. Some of them could not read a single word, and they didn't even know who they served. They just came to fight for money.

Just like Yurong said, the people are the ones who suffer the most in this world.

The Second Prince is a rather weak person, which is not a bad thing as a human being, but it is the biggest mistake as a monarch. As the saying goes, a kind man cannot command an army. It would be good for such a person to be the emperor and then be controlled by the aristocratic families, but Wei Xuanning glanced at his father.

But how can such a king defeat the surrounding countries? If the country is gone, what is the point of the existence of these aristocratic families?

But Wei Rui said, "The child is naive."

Xuan Ning would never have asked such a childish question before, but now he has been misled by the girl from the Yang family for the rest of his life.

He said sternly, "Don't be childish. People who say such things don't understand the ways of the world. If you are still so kind-hearted, I'm afraid my Wei family will be ruined by you in the future."

Wei Xuanning's expression was a little strange: "No."

"snort."

Although he loved his son, he knew that he would be left out for a while. Moreover, Zhou Ziying had not woken up yet, so he had to go and check on him.

When they returned to their room, Yurong no longer avoided him. She put the paper in her hand aside and stood up and said, "You were not at home when your son turned one. You only did a simple one-year-old ceremony. I wanted to take him to the manor to play for a few days, but I never thought that the prince would be deposed and the court would be in turmoil."

Wei Xuanning took the paper she had just written, which was all in the form of a memorial, roughly talking about the new policy. There were also red comments on it, which looked like the handwriting of Emperor Feng'an.

He was surprised. "Yurong, are you going to spread it out here for me to see?"

Yurong said calmly, "We are husband and wife, why should I hide this from you? You let me come and go freely in your study, and I am here for your convenience."

In fact, Emperor Feng'an's health was not very good, and many memorials were currently approved by the Empress. He was delighted to find that his daughter Yurong was extremely talented, even better than the Empress. Moreover, his daughter did not affect the imperial power, so he admired Yurong very much.

Occasionally, when he felt something was difficult, he would test Yurong.

Yurong also won his heart more and more. No matter whether she was dealing with the situation before entering the palace or criticizing the current affairs, everything she said was meaningful. From the perspective of a monarch, she could even be the regent of the country.

Maybe he was just teasing his daughter, but Yurong would seize every opportunity.

Wei Xuanning was a little depressed: "Although I have always known that you are excellent, but now you seem to be getting further and further away from me."

Yurong was stunned and felt very apologetic. Brother Xuanning always wanted to be coaxed, coquettish and a little pretentious, so she had to accompany him. How could she forget that?
