Dexiang hesitated for a moment: "Anyway, this old servant will follow Your Majesty. Whatever you say, this old servant will do!" After saying that, he kowtowed.
Fang Zhiyi didn't even open her eyes, but simply raised her hand to signal him to get up: "Don't kneel down so easily in the future."
"This old servant dares not!" Dexiang had just stood up when he immediately knelt down again.
"Just because you dared to lead your men to fight them to the death today, you deserve to not kneel before me!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Dexiang immediately bowed again.
"..." Sometimes communication is difficult, especially with some stubborn people.
Upon hearing the report from the person monitoring Fang Zhiyi that Fang Zhiyi spends her days either lying in the sun or thinking about food, Teng Shuchang pondered, "Could it be that this emperor really doesn't care?"
However, Fang Zhiyi's next actions confirmed his suspicions. Before the king's order arrived, Fang Zhiyi sent people several times to ask when the throne would be passed on, leaving Teng Shuchang somewhat at a loss.
What kind of emperor is this! Doesn't he have any sense of shame as an emperor?
He wanted to go into the palace to have some fun with the emperor, but whenever Fang Zhiyi saw him, she would pull him aside to discuss the matter of passing the throne, and even wanted to put the dragon robe on him, which scared Teng Shuchang so much that he fled the palace in a panic.
If I were to wear the dragon robe, how would the king deal with me?
For a time, the palace was extremely quiet, and apart from the spies sent by Teng Shuchang, everything was as usual.
However, undercurrents were surging in the capital. Many people, having heard of the emperor's actions, secretly cursed Fang Zhiyi for being spineless. Faced with the governance of the Mang Kingdom, many people were simply not convinced, either outwardly complying while secretly resisting or openly rebelling.
If it were simply a matter of killing those who resisted, then so be it. But this was, after all, the capital of the Li Dynasty. Teng Shuchang could only suppress his soldiers. He knew the king's thoughts well; he wanted to assimilate this place, not create a dead city.
Fortunately, the king's order came back. Teng Shuchang frowned as he looked at the words, but after a moment, he suddenly realized: "Let Fang Zhiyi continue to be a puppet emperor? That would be beneficial to us."
He immediately rushed to the palace.
However, he didn't expect to hear a chaotic noise as soon as he entered the palace. Knowing Fang Zhiyi's role later, he hurried over and breathed a sigh of relief when he arrived at the scene.
They're beating their son.
"I'm your father! You little bastard!" Fang Zhiyi cursed Fang Fengqi, hands on her hips. Fang Fengqi, panting heavily, retorted, "I don't have a father as spineless as you!"
Teng Shuchang frowned.
"Fine, fine, fine!" Fang Zhiyi was furious. He turned around and saw Teng Shuchang. He took a few steps forward and grabbed his hand.
Teng Shuchang was startled, thinking he was going to take off his clothes again. Fortunately, Fang Zhiyi just grabbed him and said, "General Teng, you've come at the right time. Does this little rascal think being an emperor is fun? Tell him if it's fun."
"I, I!" Fang Fengqi looked at her father, who was standing with the invaders, her face flushed with anger.
"Stop with the 'you,' I'm telling you, from today onwards I'm cutting ties with you! Get out of here!" Fang Zhiyi angrily threw away the bamboo stick in his hand. "General Teng, you be my witness! From now on, he has nothing to do with me!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down, please calm down, it's not that serious." Having said that, Teng Shuchang had no choice but to say a few words. This Fang Zhiyi was truly an eccentric emperor. However, he didn't have a bad feeling about Fang Zhiyi, because Fang Zhiyi had never referred to himself as "朕" (Zhen, the imperial "I") in front of him. Judging from this point alone, Fang Zhiyi hadn't been acting before; he didn't want to be the emperor at all.
