Novel website. Jun Qiming opened his eyes wide, his face filled with despair.
Linghu Lan smiled slightly, then turned and left.
A series of mournful cries came from behind.
"Your Majesty, please spare me! I was blind and offended you. I deserve to die. Please, Your Majesty, spare my life..."
The prison door slammed shut, cutting off all sound. Linghu Lan sighed silently; the debts owed would have to be repaid sooner or later.
...
The next day.
Jun Qiming was executed.
The reaction of the court officials was not intense. Jun Qiming was neither good at literature nor military affairs, and there was nothing about him that people cared about. Most importantly, his plan to usurp the throne was ridiculously simple.
Everyone thought that Jun Qiming had accidentally offended Jun Zhe and was executed by His Majesty on a pretext.
Only two senior officials of the court thought differently. After considering the cause and effect, they couldn't help but feel a chill. Jun Qiming's plan was simple, but it had great potential. If it succeeded, from every perspective, he would be the best candidate to become emperor.
Only then did everyone believe that Jun Qiming was really going to rebel. They couldn't help but think that Jun Zhe was a wise and virtuous ruler. Although he was young, he was intelligent, decisive, and insightful. He would surely become a great emperor for all time.
only……
This atmosphere of praise and adulation lasted only a few days before everyone's thoughts changed, because His Majesty actually intended to dismiss the six palaces and favor only the Empress.
This is not the behavior of a wise ruler; most emperors who lost their kingdoms were infatuated with a particular concubine...
Immediately, countless people submitted memorials advising: Your Majesty, you cannot be a foolish ruler; you must be a wise one. Your Majesty, you must have many children!
Jun Zhe replied casually: "What business is it of yours what I am doing in my family affairs?"
The ministers: "???"
What family matter does the emperor have? Isn't every family matter a matter of state?
People kept submitting petitions, but Jun Zhe had Zhou Anyuan pick them out. No matter how ornate the writing or how sincere the sentiments, he didn't read any of them.
On the day when the court officials gathered, he burned all the memorials in front of everyone.
"Do not underestimate me because I am young. From now on, if anyone speaks of my family affairs, they must also submit a strategy for governing the country. If there is no strategy, my family affairs are none of your business. If your strategy is useless, there is still a place for you in the imperial prison!"
Upon hearing this, the entire court fell silent.
The previous dynasty has fallen silent.
The harem was in chaos.
The initial talent show selected twelve girls. After removing Yi Yue Qingyin, eleven girls remained.
Most of these people were selected by Linghu Lan, so they should be given an explanation. Fortunately, many of them are still young and have only been in the palace for a few months, so they are still in the adaptation period.
Once the decree of dismissal was issued, some people were willing to leave the palace and happily accepted the decree. Linghu Lan asked the emperor to grant them the titles of county princess and old lady according to their original ranks, and bestowed upon them gold and silver as a token of apology. She also indicated that if they had someone they liked in the future, the emperor could grant them a marriage.
A marriage decreed by imperial decree!
This is an immense honor, enough to bring glory to one's husband's family for the rest of one's life.
Immediately, six people happily went back to their mothers' homes.
Some people were raised with very strict family education, learning the Three Obediences and Four Virtues rigorously. They never knew that once they entered the palace, there would be a day when they could leave. They also realized that once they left, they would only be facing another man, whose appearance and character were probably not as good as the emperor's. Therefore, they were unwilling to leave the palace.
Most people think in one of these two ways, but Li Bai is different; she doesn't want to leave the palace purely for the sake of food.
