Qin Ge wanted to "reward" His Majesty the Emperor.
I thought to myself, there's no going back.
However, he could beg for mercy.
Although he is a very tough person, there is nothing shameful about begging for mercy in certain situations and places.
However, Qin Ge clearly underestimated the power of that red Yang Fruit, which contained a faint trace of fiery Yang energy and looked extremely potent...
*
When Qin Ge emerged from the Dragon Palace, clutching his back and rubbing his legs, the fact that the top scholar had stayed overnight in the Emperor's palace for several days and nights had already shocked the court and the public.
Rumors such as "the emperor forcibly takes his subject", "the emperor's forced love", "those forbidden love stories in the palace that cannot be tolerated by the world", "the top scholar bewitches the emperor", and "Mu Xiange is simply the second wicked concubine who brought disaster to the country" have spread.
Of course, some ministers who had a good personal relationship with Qin Ge did not believe that the handsome young man who wore flowers in front of the palace, rode a horse on the imperial street, and was as bright and clear as the moon could be such a treacherous minister who bewitched the emperor.
It's inevitable that I'd speak up for Qin Ge and defend her.
"Don't say that. Even if the top scholar stayed overnight in His Majesty's Dragon Palace, it doesn't mean anything. Maybe His Majesty simply relies on the top scholar? After all, the top scholar is indeed an outstanding talent, isn't he?"
"To be honest, you're just jealous that the top scholar has won His Majesty's favor at such a young age, right? But what can he do? He's handsome and young. If it were your old faces, His Majesty wouldn't even bother looking at them. If you're so capable, why don't you be born like him!"
"..."
Of course, these voices came to an abrupt end after a stubborn—no, an honest and upright censor impeached Qin Ge during the morning court session, stating that he had bewitched the emperor, but received a response from the emperor…
At that time, the censor bravely offered his advice, and the Golden Palace was completely silent. The young emperor, one of the protagonists of the rumors, rose from his dragon throne. His light gold dragon robe drew a silent and awe-inspiring arc in mid-air as he looked down at the minister who had offered his advice.
"The top scholar has not bewitched the emperor's heart. It is I who have developed feelings for the top scholar and wish to marry him as... Empress."
These words caused an uproar among the court officials.
After leaving the palace, Qin Ge returned to his residence and skipped the morning court session, thus avoiding a major social disaster.
…
Even though Jun Chenbi took all the blame for "the emperor and his ministers openly coming out as gay in ancient times," in this era of supreme imperial power, most people would not blame the wise and mighty emperor, but would instead attribute the cause of the mistake to Qin Ge!
—Your Majesty has been on the throne for many years. Although you have been somewhat averse to women in the past, and your harem has been somewhat empty, you have taken concubines in previous years. This shows that Your Majesty is not born with a preference for men or a penchant for homosexuality!
How could they, as subjects, blame His Majesty for changing his sexual orientation?
Then we can only keep harping on the person who made His Majesty change his sexual orientation.
Just like a foolish and incompetent ruler who ruins a country by indulging in a beautiful woman, scholars and writers always condemn the femme fatale.
Thanks to His Majesty the Emperor, Qin Ge had the good fortune to become a scourge of the country.
This does indeed align with the prophecy.
For a time, court officials urged the execution of Mu Xiange, this monstrous woman, as if this would restore their emperor's sanity and prevent him from doing the outrageous and absurd thing of making a man his empress!
But they forgot that their emperor was never a wise ruler; on the contrary, he was known as a tyrant!
Because he promised Qin Ge that he would strive to be a wise and benevolent ruler, Jun Chenbi made an example of several corrupt officials and treacherous ministers, finally suppressing the voices among the officials who threatened to execute him, the top scholar, with bloodshed, and deterring certain forces lurking in the shadows who wanted to take the opportunity to disrupt the Great Yong Dynasty...
At this moment, the Yue State Preceptor made his appearance.
