Astute Princess: Married to be the Empress Novel - Chapter 163
Chapter 163 Deliver Credentials
So he pointed at his husband and elder brother and cursed, “Look, it was all your doing. If it weren’t for your own decision to make this ceremony, how could it be like this now? Back when the army went out to war, how nice did you sound? But now? You’ve done the job of unloading the millstone and killing the donkey with ease.”
Ying Ran paid such a great price to help Ming Shuo unify the world. Originally, it was the time for her to suffer and enjoy her honor. However, all of you only thought about your own interests. You insisted on letting Ming Shuo accept imperial concubine and let others share her achievements and her husband. Are you people doing this?
This is good. Are you satisfied with this result? Even my grandson, whom I painstakingly raised, has disappeared. My son’s happiness has also been ruined by you. Compensate my grandson. If you don’t find Haoze for me, I will not let it go.
“You’d better pray that Ying Ran can let Yelan Country go. Otherwise, even if Yelan Country can continue to rule the world, it’s impossible to tell whether or not it can continue to be called Huyan.”
As soon as the Empress finished speaking, she heard Huyan Mingshuo powerlessly say, “Don’t worry, mother. She said before she left that she would restore Yelan Country to its original state. She wanted to take back everything she brought for Yelan. She also said that she would not make things difficult for our Yelan Country because of our friendship for many years. It would only make us a remote corner, but that’s all.”
A moment later, Only then did he open his eyes, He instructed the people outside the door, “Someone, pass this palace orders, This palace will ascend to the throne as emperor in January, By the way, find someone to separate the entire palace from the middle, “Set up the East and West Palaces to welcome Mu Lian and the other women into the West Palace. As for the position, other than the Empress, you can do as you please. Let Little Yizi pass on the order. In the future, everyone in the West Palace will be forbidden from taking half a step out of the West Palace and trespassing into the East Palace to exterminate the clan. This Palace does not want to do the millstone work to avoid being struck by lightning.” Then he closed his eyes and didn’t say another word.
After hearing her son’s words, the Empress couldn’t tell what it was like. This time, her son had killed him. It seemed that he had really been forced to be ruthless. Fu Yingran’s departure also took away his kindness.
Originally, she had a knot in her heart towards the Emperor. In addition, she was also a woman. She also understood Fu Yingran’s feelings. No wife was willing to see her husband hug her left and right. Therefore, she did not agree with her husband and brother’s actions. However, no one would listen to her opinions.
This was great. It really angered Fu Yingran and brought everything back to its starting point. All the efforts that his son had made over the years had also been in vain. All of his efforts over the years had been in vain.
Hearing his wife and children’s words, Emperor Ye Lan instantly went limp. The personal eunuch beside him hurriedly helped him sit on the chair. He raised his head and looked at his wife and children. He was powerless to refute. He could only mutter to himself, “How could things be like this?” Didn’t husband always be the main principle of wife since ancient times? I am only accepting a few concubines for Ming Shuo, but I did not shake her position as Empress of Fu Yingran. Why can’t she tolerate it? Now that things have turned out like this? How should I explain this to the people of Ye Lan? ”
It seems that he still doesn’t know the reason. The Empress can’t help but look at him with disappointment and ask, “If you wholeheartedly help me to the position of supreme being, yet I’m still in love with others in front of you, how does the Emperor feel? Don’t talk nonsense about your husband being your wife. Women are also human, and they will be sad and angry.”
Especially a powerful woman, Her dignity was not to be trampled upon, I was powerless and powerless, so I watched helplessly as you were unable to resist. If I had the same ability as Ying Ran, I would have left with my son when Concubine Ni entered the palace back then. How could I have struggled so hard and wasted so much time in the Ye Lan Imperial Palace? Why would Ming Shuo have to live so hard? ”
Seeing his wife say such words, Emperor Ye Lan felt as if he had been struck in the heart by someone. It was incomparably painful, but there was no way to refute it. Yes, women were also human beings, and they had their own thoughts. They were not things that could be manipulated by you without thinking. This was their negligence, and it was also the self-righteousness of every man’s heart.
Otherwise, how could there be a life-and-death battle in the backyard, causing the entire house to be in a state of chaos? How could there be an intriguing battle between the harem, causing the flesh and bones to be torn apart?
Thinking of this, Emperor Ye Lan felt endless regret in his heart. However, things had already developed to this extent. Everything had its causes and consequences. The so-called “Lord has no joke.” Since he had agreed to those women, they must enter the palace. Since he had angered Fu Yingran, he had to be prepared to accept her revenge.
Thus, he could only shake this chair and stand up, powerlessly saying, “I know what you said. It seems that I am really old. I can no longer see the situation in this world clearly. I am tired, so I will go back to rest first.” Then, with the help of the eunuch, he returned to his bedroom.
This matter had dealt him too great a blow. It had already exceeded his limits of tolerance. Seeing that Ye Lan was about to unify the world, it was because of his self-righteousness that he made the decision without authorization that all his achievements were ruined. What could be more destructive than such a blow? Could this be the beginning of Fu Yingran’s revenge? This was truly a direct attack on the vital points. He wanted to stay alone and reflect on what he had done in the past few years. Why had Ye Lan been in his hands for decades, but he still hadn’t made any achievements?
As for Prince Youxian, who was silently standing at the side, He couldn’t tell what it was like in his heart, Especially Huyan Mingshuo’s last sentence, It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck his vital point, Back then, when Fu Yingran ordered Tian Yizhuang to fully support Ye Lan’s invasion, He had personally promised Ying Ran that if Fu Yingran could support Huyan Mingshuo to rule the world, he would put her name in the temple and let her enjoy the incense of Ye Lan’s subjects for generations. However, what had he done now? Among the women who entered the palace this time, there was also his daughter-in-law.
Afterwards, he remembered his sister’s words just now. He couldn’t help but reflect in his heart. He remembered the plots in his backyard. The Right Virtuous King was also heartless. It seemed that they had underestimated women too much and treated them as subordinates of men. He had forgotten that they also had their own thoughts and would resist.
So he sighed and said, “All of you should rest well. This king is tired, so I will go back first. Since Ming Shuo wants to ascend to the throne as soon as possible, there are many things that need to be prepared beforehand. I will go back and arrange them first.”
Without waiting for the mother and son to reply, the Right Virtuous King turned around and left the palace. Just as Emperor Ye Lan had said, since the consequences had already been caused, they had to be prepared to take revenge.
Thus, on the tenth morning of Fu Yingran’s departure from Ye Lan, the entire Ye Lan Imperial Palace began to tremble. This morning, the court was in chaos. Because Huyan Mingshuo had not officially ascended to the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the court was still presided over by the old emperor.
He had just sat down on the dragon chair. Some officials impatiently handed over memorials, and a letter of credit, and said, I received the credentials sent by the Tianshui Kingdom last night. It was said that the Tianshui Kingdom would hold a ceremony to celebrate the ascension of the new emperor in ten days. It was also said that in order to celebrate the ascension of the new emperor, Tianyi Villa decided to stop all business contacts with the outside world in order to fully prepare for the ascension ceremony. Only after the ceremony would Tianyi Villa open normally. ”
After the official finished speaking with trepidation, He handed over the memorial and credentials in his hand, Everyone in the world knows, Everyone knew how powerful Tian Yizhuang was. If Tian Yizhuang really stopped trading with the outside world, it would instantly paralyze the entire world’s economy. That would definitely cause chaos in the world, and the pressure that Ye Lan, as the number one country, would have to endure would be unimaginable.
As the ruler of a country, No matter how unconscious the old emperor was, And you can see what’s going on, Thus, he winked at the eunuch beside him. The eunuch hurriedly descended the Imperial Stage. He took the memorial and the credentials and handed them to the old emperor. After he took it, he put aside the memorial and opened the letter. He wanted to see who the new emperor of the Tianshui Kingdom was. He had the ability to stop all business with the Tianyi Manor just to prepare for his ascension ceremony. How much money would he lose?
One had to know that as the number one villa under the heavens, the daily income could be enough to cover the expenses of the Yelan army for a month.
But when he opened the letter, Fu Haose’s three big words were immediately printed into his eyes. He collapsed on the spot, No matter how brainless he was, he knew that this Fu Haose was his grandson, Huyan Haose. This was his own grandson, and now he had someone else’s surname. This was something that he, as the king of a country, could not tolerate. Thus, he angrily tossed the credentials at Huyan Mingshuo’s feet and said, “Take a look for yourself and see what your wife has done.”
Originally, he had thought that Huyan Mingshuo would be enraged after seeing it. After all, no man could tolerate his child taking someone else’s surname, entering another genealogy, and worshipping someone else’s ancestor. This would be a disgrace to the Huyan Clan, as well as to the entire Ye Lan Imperial Clan. Moreover, this was his only child at the moment.
Unexpectedly, Huyan Mingshuo only opened it and closed the letter. He said indifferently, “I already knew about this. Ying Ran had already told him before she left. Once I married another person, she would let Haoze enter the Fu Clan’s genealogy, become a descendant of the Fu Clan, and help him become the ruler of the world.”
I don’t have any thoughts about this. Even if they do, I can’t do anything about it. This Tianshui Kingdom is not our Yelan’s territory, so I have no right to interfere. As for Tian Yizhuang, they didn’t commit any crimes, nor did they rob us. Even if they stopped their business, they didn’t ask for compensation from us for one tael of silver, so we can’t interfere anymore.
Besides, did Father forget? Back then, when you promised to let Mu Linghua marry into my Crown Prince’s Mansion, Ying Ran has already said that once I take a concubine or another wife, she will leave. She will also let the child in her belly enter the Fu Clan’s genealogy. As a descendant of the Fu Clan, their mother and son will have nothing to do with our Ye Lan Imperial Family. She is merely fulfilling what she said back then, and I am powerless to stop her now. ”
After saying this, he casually handed the letter to Little Yizi beside him and told him to pass it down to all the officials. He no longer spoke and just sat quietly in his seat.
As he was already the new Emperor of Ye Lan who was about to ascend to the throne, a chair was prepared for him in the main hall to show his respect for his identity.
Hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, The old emperor was also helpless. Looks like Fu Yingran left, He also took away Huyan Mingshuo’s fighting spirit. He was going to let Fu Yingran do whatever he wanted, but he couldn’t say anything because he was the one who caused all of this. Even if they were unwilling, they could only stare at him. He had counted on thousands of dollars, but he had only missed out that she was actually so resolute in her actions, and she had actually brought everything back to its starting point.
If Tian Yizhuang really stopped all business, Yelan would fall into an unprecedented crisis. At that time, not to mention unifying the world, even Yelan’s own country would be unable to take care of itself. Wasn’t this the situation where Fu Yingran hadn’t married three years ago?
