Gu Qingcheng was most satisfied with Queen Gu's decision.
It’s better not to have children. Although Gu Qingcheng is not afraid of having children with an “enemy”, wouldn’t it be better not to have children?
She looked down on Min Huang. Although he was very handsome, he was not the Queen's type.
Well, if she has to compromise herself for the sake of the mission, Queen Gu, who puts profit above all else, might endure it.
But, thanks to the original owner, Gu Qingcheng didn't even have to compromise.
Gu Qingcheng has integrated the original owner's memories and is also a rational and sober government official like the original owner. Therefore, she can understand the original owner's choice very well.
Outsiders, oh no, not just outsiders, even the original owner’s relatives were a little confused.
They are in a hurry!
The next day was the first day of the new year. According to the rules of the Dajing Palace, the relatives of the concubines could visit the palace on the first and fifteenth days of the new year.
Queen Gu's biological mother, Li, entered the palace.
"This old woman pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen!"
Li knelt down and bowed, and Gu Qingcheng stood up to greet her.
The mother and daughter held hands and sat on the low couch together.
"How is mother these days? I think she looks pretty good."
Gu Qingcheng greeted Li first.
The original owner was a person with a cold temperament. Even when facing her biological mother, she was always polite.
However, this is already her best condition.
She is basically cold to everyone except her family.
Gu Qingcheng is a veteran actor with explosive acting skills. She can perfectly interpret the role of even people with different personalities from her own.
Not to mention that Queen Gu bears a striking resemblance to her.
Her performance was so natural.
As the biological mother, Li did not realize that the person in front of her had already been replaced.
There was no way, she was too familiar, exactly the cold and proud eldest daughter in her memory.
"Aqing, have you and His Majesty been doing well during this period?"
"I heard that Concubine Xie once again—"
Having said that, Li first looked around and subconsciously lowered his voice.
Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng couldn't help but smile, "Mother, this is my Anyi Palace!"
As the master of a palace, if he cannot even ensure the "safety" of his own bedroom, then the original owner's three years of work would have been in vain.
Of course, the reason why Queen Gu was able to perfectly control her own bedroom was also because Min Huang had just ascended the throne and his royal power was not strong enough.
Perhaps in a few years or even a dozen years, Min Huang will become the true emperor, and the harem will be full of his spies.
In front of Min Huang, there will be no "secrets" in the entire harem.
Well, okay, Min Huang has a cheat. Even if he doesn’t completely control the palace, he can still “hear” more and more real secrets.
only--
Gu Qingcheng still doesn't think highly of Min Huang's cheats.
"He may become overly obsessed and may become 'moody' in an effort to demonstrate his authority."
Gu Qingcheng was greeting her mother while thinking secretly.
Well, it’s still her “second zone in the heart”, so the troublemaker can hear it.
Huoshui was puzzled, "Isn't it bad to be moody?"
"An emperor like this makes it impossible for court officials to guess his likes and dislikes, and impossible to predict his judgments. This will make everyone more respectful!"
People are instinctively afraid of the unknown.
The reason why powerful officials in history were able to "control the emperor" was not only because of the threat of force, but also because they were able to see through the emperor's heart.
In front of powerful officials, if you show your emotions too much on your face, it will be easy for them to see through you and then control you.
On the other hand, he was mysterious and unpredictable, and the court officials had no idea where to start.
Gu Qingcheng: ...
"Being moody doesn't mean being mysterious."
A moody person is more like a tyrant, but an emperor, even if he is a tyrant, is better than a tyrant.
Because of the incompetent ruler, the court officials were able to figure out the rules and find ways to fool the emperor, so that the emperor would not kill innocent people and cause chaos in the world.
Tyrants and the like do everything according to their own wishes, and there is no rule at all.
In simple terms, he is a lunatic.
No courtier wanted to serve a mad tyrant.
As a king, you can be mysterious and prevent your courtiers from seeing into your heart, but you must never be moody!
If Min Huang mistook moodiness for mystery, he would be digging his own grave.
Huoshui: ...Are all the people in charge of government affairs so cruel?
The boss goes crazy, so they change the boss?
Gu Qingcheng: ...What do you think?
Even loyal ministers are unwilling to work under a tyrant.
The Dajing Dynasty was not yet a dynasty where imperial power reached its peak, and here, aristocratic families still occupied a monopoly position.
Dynasties changed frequently and emperors took turns to be in power.
Even in a dynasty at the peak of imperial power, if the emperor is too uncontrollable, some powerful officials will create an accident and kill the emperor!
Min Huang was neither an emperor at the pinnacle of imperial power nor a tyrant holding immense power.
But he showed his moody traits... Tsk tsk, do you think those old foxes in the court can tolerate it?
…
cannot!
Minister of War Yu Heng was Concubine Yu's cousin and had made outstanding military achievements. He was transferred back to the capital from the Liaodong battlefield by Min Huang a year ago.
Although his military power was taken away, he was not allowed to "retire" but was given the important official position of Minister of War.
Therefore, the court officials only regarded Min Huang's move as a normal personnel transfer and did not think that he was targeting the "Yu Family Army".
However, at the first court meeting today, Yu Heng was just reporting on the affairs of the Sixteen Guards as usual, but Min Huang, who was sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly lost his temper.
