Hearing these three words, the Marshal felt as if all her strength had been drained away. She fell to the ground, unable to utter a single word.
After confirming that this was not a dream, she knelt all the way to Su Man and said, "Your Majesty, please, please spare my daughter's life for the sake of my life and death for Dayong."
Afraid that Su Man would not agree, she bent down and kowtowed, each one harder than the last.
Su Man was afraid that she would get hurt, so she quickly asked Nong Shuang Wuxia to lift her up.
The marshal wanted to struggle and knock again at first, but the next second, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Su Man asked someone to help her into the side hall and asked the imperial physician to take her pulse.
"The Marshal is fine. He's just old and he fainted because of anger."
As soon as the voice fell, the marshal woke up. She lifted the quilt and knelt down, "Your Majesty, I..."
Su Man stopped her and said, "I know what the Marshal wants to say, but you should also know my difficulties."
She sighed softly, "Ever since I ascended the throne, the imperial court and harem have been in turmoil. No matter what I do, I'm afraid to act. Now, something's happening in the military camp. Although I'm the empress, I have no authority in the army. Although I want to save them, I'm powerless."
Although Su Man spoke cryptically, the Marshal had quarreled with the civil officials in the court for many years after all, so he quickly understood her implication.
The marshal pondered for a long time, then got off the bed and knelt on the ground. She took out something from her arms and raised it above her head. "I am old, and I am unable to handle the affairs of the military camp. I should return this military token to Your Majesty."
“…”
At this point, Suman also took back the military power.
After the marshal retired and returned home, Su Man did not hand over the military power to Captain Hu or Di Dongnu, but let them govern together.
With mutual checks and balances, they will need the support of His Majesty, so that the previous situation of one dominant party will not occur.
-
Without the marshal's obstruction, the imperial examination was restored.
There were many new faces in the court, and the previously corrupt dynasty was revitalized.
In this way, the last hidden danger of the previous dynasty was resolved.
Because the female prime minister had made great contributions to the selection of talents for the imperial examination, Su Man rewarded the female prime minister and her family. That evening, Su Man also went to Feng Jun's palace for dinner to comfort Feng Jun for the cold reception he had received recently.
Feng Jun and his entire family received rewards. They were in high spirits and dressed like red envelopes, in red from head to toe.
Su Man looked at him amusedly, "Mr. Feng is dressed very festively today, is there a reason for that?"
Hearing Su Man's question, Feng Jun's eyes widened like copper bells, "Your Majesty, don't you know what day it is today?"
“…”
This sounded like a life-threatening question. Su Man was already panicking, but she didn't show it on her face. She looked at him with a smile, "Look at you, I was just joking, why are you so anxious? Of course I know what day it is today."
Su Man originally wanted to fool around, but unexpectedly, Feng Jun's IQ suddenly came online. He asked with a look of suspicion, "Then your majesty, what day is today?"
Seeing his determination to get to the bottom of things, Su Man knew that if she didn't tell him the truth today, he would not let her go.
She sighed first, "I really have neglected you too much in the past. You think I won't remember such an important day. I'm afraid you are disappointed in me."
Seeing Su Man's gloomy expression, Feng Jun immediately threw away the doubts in his heart to the Eight Claws Kingdom, "Your Majesty, that's not what I meant, I just..."
"Stop talking."
Su Man covered her face with one hand and stood between them with the other hand, "It's all my fault. I hurt you."
This move turned the tables, causing Feng Jun and Su Man to suddenly switch places. Feng Jun hurriedly explained, "I never blamed you. It was I who insisted on marrying you. Now that Your Majesty is so kind to me, I am very content."
Seeing that Xiao Fengjun was so easy to deceive, Su Man felt a little more guilty. She covered her face with her hands and winked at Wu Xia next to her.
Come on, what day is today!
Wu Xia was also very understanding. While Feng Jun was reflecting on himself, she quickly lip-synced with Su Man.
Su Man understood and said confidently, "Don't worry, I will make sure to organize your birthday well this time and won't let you down again."
“…”
As soon as the words fell, the entire Fengqi Palace fell into deathly silence.
The palace maids around were all dumbfounded, and the smile on Feng Jun's face opposite him gradually disappeared.
Su Man immediately realized that something was wrong. She turned stiffly to Wu Xia, whose face was full of shock.
Su Man raised her eyebrows and said, "Didn't you tell me, it's your birthday?"
Wu Xia: I mean, getting married...
In an instant, Su Man felt that the sky was dark and the earth was gloomy, and Feng Jun opposite her seemed to be under some dark filter.
She laughed dryly, "Well, I was just kidding. I was talking about our wedding day, we must celebrate it well."
“…”
Seeing Feng Jun raising the chicken leg in front of him and about to throw it, Su Man quickly picked up the plate as a shield, "Hey, don't be impulsive. Impulsiveness is the devil, the devil!"
“…”
"ah!"
Just like that, when Su Man came out of Fengqi Palace, her whole face was radiant and shiny.
Wu Xia suppressed a laugh and said, "Your Majesty, which palace are you going to next?"
Su Man said with a dark face, "Instead of talking, why not go and prepare the bath water?"
I wanted to go back quickly, but someone suddenly showed up.
