Seeing the double dragon jade pendant tied around Yan Tinglan's waist, the guards of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion let him go with trepidation, and someone soon ran to inform the Duke of Protectorate, Lin Hu.
"Your Majesty, long live the emperor!"
Lin Hu was a little frightened, and he and his family paid their respects solemnly.
The emperor angrily killed Li Tengyu in the court yesterday, and the swift and decisive reorganization of the court made Lin Hu re-examine this once cowardly emperor.
"Please stand up, old Duke. I am sorry to bother you without being asked. I came here today to discuss something with you and the Duke's wife."
Lin Hu and his wife looked at each other, then asked everyone else to leave, and took his wife and followed Yan Tinglan to the study.
"I wonder if the emperor has any important matters that require the assistance of this old minister?"
"Please sit down, both of you." Yan Tinglan said with a gentle smile, "I heard that the old Duke and his wife are both good at painting."
"Your Majesty, you are too kind."
"I came here today because I want you two to paint a few paintings for me."
"I wonder who the emperor wants to paint?"
"Old General, do you still remember the Zhu family who died for their country?"
"Remember, the Zhu family is a meritorious official of our dynasty, so we will certainly remember them. Do you want me to paint the Zhu family?"
"Yes." Yan Tinglan nodded and looked at the wife of the Duke of Huguo. "I heard that Madam has a good relationship with the women of the Zhu family. Please pay more attention to the paintings of the women."
"I will do my best and will be able to finish the painting within three days."
Yan Tinglan handed a gold certificate to the Duke of Protecting the Country, "This is my thank you gift, so I won't bother you any more."
"Please stay, there is no need to see me off."
Lin Hu went out to look, but Yan Tinglan was no longer there.
It seems that the emperor has great inner strength.
"Old man, why do you think the emperor wants us to paint portraits of Zhu's family?"
Lin Hu looked at the death-free gold medal in his hand and said, "Perhaps it's because of Concubine Zhu who came to the palace not long ago."
"The sky of the former dynasty has changed, and the sky of the harem may also change."
When Yan Tinglan returned to Changle Palace, Yan Chengfeng was already sitting at the table waiting.
"Father."
"You really have become a freeloader." Yan Tinglan sat next to Zhu Fuli and held her hand, "Ali, I'm back."
"Um."
Yan Chengfeng looked surprised, as he discovered that his father never called himself "I" in front of the Imperial Concubine.
"Ali, how about moving to Fengyi Palace?" It was closer to him and was also the palace where the queen lived.
Yan Chengfeng was surprised again. Was his father going to make the imperial concubine the queen?
"It's all right." It doesn't matter where you live.
"Then move tomorrow? I'll have someone come over, no need for you to worry, Ali."
"Um."
After finishing dinner, Yan Chengfeng received an unfriendly look from Yan Tinglan and left on his own accord.
My father is so stingy.
After washing up, Yan Tinglan hugged Zhu Fuli who was reading a book, "Ali, is the book as good as me?"
"Calm down." As he hugged himself, his heart beat especially fast.
Zhu Fuli couldn't tell whether she was not used to his touch or something else.
"What makes Ali uneasy?" There was a hint of smile in his eyes.
"You're asking even though you already know the answer." Zhu Fuli took another travel book beside him and put it in his hand. "Look."
Yan Tinglan threw the book away and rested his chin on her shoulder, "Ali and I are reading the same book."
Zhu Fuli: ...
Never mind, let him be, he is the emperor.
When it was almost time for sleep, Yan Tinglan held her waist and kissed her for a while, kissing her until his whole body was burning with heat.
Zhu Fuli felt something strong and powerful pressing against his lower abdomen, closed his eyes and cursed in his heart, "You deserved it."
On the second day, when Yan Tinglan went to court, he asked Zhang Yuanlu to read the edict to confer the title of empress.
"The emperor issued an edict: Zhu Fuli, the descendant of a meritorious official, is knowledgeable and well-mannered, and has a smart and intelligent personality... with a golden seal and phoenix seal, she is promoted to empress. I decree this."
All the officials were surprised, and soon someone came out and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial concubine has such a high position just after entering the palace, and she has no children yet. Isn't it too fast to be named queen?"
