Li Tan wrote a letter requesting the establishment of a crown prince, but the emperor simply ignored it. Li Tan had no choice but to resign from his post. He knew that the emperor was unwilling to give him the credit for making the decision, so he might as well do it in a decent manner.
The emperor gave Li Tan the Chiyi Post, which was considered a respectable position. He served as the second assistant for several years and the first assistant for three years. However, Li Tan did not retire as the second assistant like in his previous life.
Before he left, the emperor asked him who he would recommend to serve in the cabinet, and Li Tan recommended Fang Weiyan without hesitation.
"This boy is a talent that can assist the king. He has been in office for ten years and has made achievements in every term. He is also honest and upright. Although he is still young, he has a lot of experience. I beg Your Majesty to select a talented person."
Emperors of all dynasties were very cautious about the people recommended by their prime ministers for cabinet selection.
In his previous life, Fang Weiyan was recommended by the court because of discord among the ministers, but the fact that his son Ma Shangfeng was the last one to be recommended by the court was also a huge obstacle in some ways.
In this life, after Li Tan left, Lu Rufa became a secondary assistant, and Fang Weiyan successfully entered the cabinet.
Nothing went wrong at the Dong'an Marquis' Mansion this time. Fang Weichang is now the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and has a good relationship with Fang Weiyan, and there is a sense of mutual support between them. Although Fang Weiting is a playboy, he has no money to go to brothels after his family became unable to make ends meet, so he has become more devoted.
Needless to say, Fang Weijun had made a small contribution by detecting the Japanese pirates in Dengzhou. Now the emperor is asking the Ministry of Personnel to discuss and prepare to promote him to a higher level. The Marquis of Dong'an also wants to pass the throne to Fang Weijun on the grounds of old age.
Although the two children, Xian'er and Tang'er, are not gifted, they are well-behaved and sensible.
Fang Weiyan, who had just returned from court, was still wearing a crimson official robe, which made him look extremely noble. Mi Niang smiled and said, "We are here at Fangge's hometown."
Fang Weiyan smiled and said, "You, you."
"I won't say any more. Many people came to celebrate today. I accepted all the invitations sent in the first half of the morning and returned the gifts. However, some of them were your students and were very close to you. I asked them to wait for you in the flower hall."
"My lady, you have done a great job. I also congratulate you on becoming the prime minister's wife." Fang Weiyan looked at Mi Niang with some pride.
Although she cannot become the most noble woman in the world, she must become the wife of the most powerful man in the world.
After Lu Rufa became the Prime Minister, he continued to support the reform. He was more thoughtful and younger than Li Tan, and he could also understand the emperor's mind. Therefore, the emperor had to make use of him.
At the same time, the emperor knew that he was not in good health, especially after the fire in the Purple Palace, he was scolded for a long time before being carried out. He knew his own physical condition well.
After Lu Rufa came to power, he also secretly questioned the emperor about the issue of appointing a crown prince. Of course, Lu Rufa was asking according to custom, and he did not expect that the emperor actually agreed.
It was truly a celebration for the whole world. Lu Rufa immediately told several of his colleagues in the inner cabinet about it, and Fang Weiyan was very happy when he came back.
"Is it to make the eldest son the emperor?" Mi Niang asked.
Fang Weiyan nodded: "That is to make the eldest son the crown prince. Now the queen has no children, and the emperor is said to be in poor health. So we should make a crown prince as soon as possible. In this way, if the mausoleum collapses, we will know how to choose someone."
Mi Niang nodded: "That's true."
She looked at Fang Weiyan again: "You have made the decision, and I don't know how far it will go in the future. You just have to promise me one thing."
Fang Weiyan asked curiously, "I wonder what it is?"
He knew very well that Mi Niang seldom interfered with his official business outside, and she must have asked this question because it was a big deal.
Mi Niang asked, "Can we petition the emperor to abolish the system of burying people alive with the dead?"
Even if Fan Yuzhen became a nun, she was still worried, because once the emperor passed away, she would be forced to be buried alive even if she was a nun. That was why she was anxious to let her enter the palace to speak.
Then there is Zheng Dou Niang. Why did she give birth to children one after another? Because she knew very well that if she had no offspring, she would most likely be deposed, which was a small matter, but buried alive with her father, which was a big matter.
There was also my niece Fu Qianqian, who was not favored but never caused any trouble. It was really against the harmony of nature that she was buried alive at such a young age.
Including herself, she had worked so hard in her previous life just to avoid being forced to be buried alive...
Fang Weiyan looked at her and seemed to understand something: "Okay, I promise you, the system of burying people alive with their dead is against the will of heaven."
Mi Niang smiled and nodded.
The two held hands, and when the late autumn wind blew, Fang Weiyan blocked it for her.
Mi Niang looked up at him, tears welling in her eyes: "You are so nice."
"Silly girl, you are already a mother, why are you still crying?" Fang Weiyan pinched her face, "I am here, you don't have to be afraid of anything."
"Well, I'm not afraid of anything anymore." Mi Niang said with a loud noise.
In autumn, the fruit trees are laden with fruits, and their relationship is still fruitful and beautiful today. How wonderful it is.

The author has something to say:
After two days of updating yesterday and today, I finally updated a big update.
The main part of the story of Mi Niang and Fang Wei Yan ends here. I will start updating the new extra chapter tomorrow. Looking back, this book is really unlucky. My waist broke just a few days after I started writing, and I was lying in bed typing with my mobile phone. Later, it was removed from the list, thanks to the help of book friends. I also worked diligently. Today I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
