Chapter 326: The Character of a Wise Ruler

A small beast half the size of an adult's palm caused chaos in the harem, the Queen Mother was furious, and Concubine Duan lost control.

The beast rushed to Changchun Palace and said in a soft voice: "Long live the Queen! Long live the Queen! A thousand years for the Queen Mother! A thousand years for the Queen Mother!"

The Queen turned her head in shock and stared at the snow-white beast in front of her as if she had seen a ghost, with a deep gaze and a cold expression.

A talking beast?

As expected, Chu Qinghuang was the best at playing tricks. She caused chaos in the court with her own strength, and the major families were panicked, but in the end she easily defeated all the emperor brothers and sat on the throne alone?

Ambitious, it was obvious.

Respected as the Queen Mother... Haha.

Her son failed to sit on the throne, so how honorable was she as the Queen Mother?

Today, the Emperor could imprison her on a trumped-up charge, and in the future Chu Qinghuang could also abolish her as the Queen Mother on a trumped-up charge, or even let her disappear quietly in the harem - just like Concubine Feng and her daughter in the past.

There wasn't even a grand funeral.

The queen closed her eyes tightly, her heart aching with hatred.

If she could go out now, she would definitely bring enough people to force into the Yugan Palace and slap the emperor hard to vent the frustration she had felt during this period of time.

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict respectfully reminded: "Your Majesty, you should have someone pack up as soon as possible. You have to move to Ci'an Palace before the sixth day of the first lunar month."

The queen looked at the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict coldly: "How is the emperor's health these days?"

"To reply to the queen, the emperor has not been in good health, and Empress Xian has been taking care of him recently."

The queen didn't say anything, and her expression became more gloomy.

Empress Xian took care of him?

The emperor wanted to be the emperor at such a young age? He was sick.

And he was seriously ill.

…

"Your Majesty wants to take Concubine Xian out for fun?" Nan Xi looked surprised, "Emperors don't like to stay in the palace these days?"

Rong Yu poured Nan Xi a cup of tea and said leisurely, "Maybe he is tired of being an emperor, too much helplessness and involuntary, so he wants to unload his responsibilities and go out to relax early."

Nan Xi pondered thoughtfully, "The Emperor of Xiqi is a wise ruler, but the situation is beyond his control. The weather, the location, and the people are not on his side. He can't do what he wants to do, so he can't help but feel a little powerless."

Since he ascended the throne at a young age, although he has not experienced cruel competition for the throne, he has faced a situation where he cannot help himself after sitting on the throne. It is inevitable to feel powerless after finally resolving the civil strife.

Now that he has a daughter with courage, and this daughter has the help of a powerful country, it is reasonable to strike while the iron is hot and give her full power, allowing her to fully display her fists and feet to eliminate the accumulated malpractices in the court, and he can also go out to relax.

But rationality is rationality, how many people in the world can be so indifferent to power and let go?

"It's only now that I really admire him." Nan Xi smiled lightly, "Not because Nuan Nuan is my daughter, but because of the decision he can make for responsibility and the courage to choose the right time."

Everyone has shortcomings, no one is perfect, but even if he is unable to do what he wants, as an emperor, he will never let the people down. This is the character that a wise monarch should have.

Rong Yu said: "He and Nuan Er complement each other."

Nan Xi understood what he meant. Nuan Er was doomed, and Xiqi's national strength declined. Now this situation is considered to give Nuan Er a chance to be reborn, and it is also a chance for Xiqi to prosper and become strong.

"Nuan Er's temperament is like you." Nan Xi said, "If she becomes the queen of Xiqi, she will definitely put the people first and will not disappoint the expectations of the emperor of Xiqi."

As he said, he sighed faintly: "If all countries have wise monarchs who can restrain their selfish ambitions and think more about the people, why would there be so many wars in the world?"

All countries have wise monarchs?

Fu Cang, who was standing in the corner holding a book, frowned slightly, and read the contents of the book seriously and attentively. He took in every word of Rong Yu and Nan Xi's casual chat, and seemed to be thinking about something.

When he returned to the bedroom in the evening, Fu Cang, who was always so taciturn that he would never speak before Chu Qinghuang, actually took the initiative to ask for the first time: "Master, do you want to be a wise ruler?"

Chu Qinghuang was slightly surprised, and then raised his eyebrows nonchalantly: "Of course, can you be a tyrant who is scolded by everyone?"

Fu Cang shook his head: "That's not what I mean."

"Xi Qi is already weak enough. If I become a tyrant again, I can make Xi Qi miserable and the people live in misery within ten years." Chu Qinghuang said, reaching out and knocking on his head, "So you have to practice well and master all kinds of martial arts, so that you can help me when the time comes, so that I, a wise ruler, don't have to be so tired."

Fu Cang nodded: "Master, don't worry, I will definitely study hard."
