The next day there was a court meeting.
'Qing Emperor' did not participate.
However, after the great court meeting, all the important officials in the court were invited by the emperor to the imperial study.
It's different from the past when you were given a seat as soon as you entered the house.
Today, several ministers entered the Imperial Study Room, but neither the 'Qing Emperor' nor the 'Xin Emperor' offered a seat.
The ministers stood for a long time, but the 'Qing Emperor' and the 'Xin Emperor' sat on the bed, their eyes slightly narrowed, and they slowly played chess.
A game of chess was played for more than an hour.
He who has an average psychological quality is already trembling with fear and anxiety at this moment.
After finally finishing a game of chess, 'Emperor Qing' pushed the chess pieces and then looked at everyone:
"I'm not dead. Is anyone among you very disappointed?"
When the ministers heard this, they suddenly broke out in cold sweat!
Sure enough, he is still the same Emperor Qing, whose majesty is as powerful as the sea and unfathomable!
"I don't dare!"
"Don't you dare? Is there anything you don't dare to do?"
'Emperor Qing' smiled coldly and looked first at Lin Xiang, the chief minister of the dynasty:
"Prime Minister Lin, after my death, how many days were you happy in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
"I am guilty!"
When Lin Ruofu heard this, he didn't dare to defend himself and knelt on the ground with a plop.
'Emperor Qing' looked at Qin Ye again, his eyes cold:
"Qin Aiqing, how did that treacherous son of Li Chengze mobilize his troops into Kyoto City?"
"I am guilty!"
When Qin Ye heard that 'Emperor Qing' wanted to settle old scores, he could only kneel to the ground like Lin Ruofu and ask for punishment.
As for the defense, it is really inappropriate to say it on this occasion.
'Qing Emperor' then ordered everyone present.
Everyone present has done something taboo to one degree or another.
Including Chen Pingping, everyone is guilty of submissiveness.
"Everyone, get up. Whether you are guilty or not depends on what the new emperor says. Since I have abdicated in favor of others, I will no longer participate in government affairs."
'Qing Emperor' made the atmosphere extremely tense, and even raised the board high, but in the end he lowered it gently and said:
"In a few days, I will go to the temple for retreat with the high priest of the temple. I don't know how many years have passed since I left. I hope I can see you old friends when I come back."
Emperor Qing was a 'refined pragmatist', and he frightened the ministers with beatings and beatings before letting them leave.
"Chen Pingping and Fan Jian stay, everyone else please leave."
"Your Majesty, please leave!"
Lin Ruofu and everyone else thought it was a false alarm and left quickly.
In the imperial study room, only 'Qing Emperor', 'Xin Emperor', Chen Pingping, Fan Jian, and Eunuch Hou who were waiting next to them were left.
"Move a stool for the two of them, they are not outsiders."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Chen Pingping and Fan Jian looked at each other with the same suspicion in their eyes.
Until now, the two of them were still confused.
Last night, Si Gu Jian and Ku He came to assassinate the new king of Nan Qing!
Sigu Jian failed in his assassination attempt and was beheaded on the spot!
Ku He was captured alive!
Emperor Qing is back from the dead!
Nanqing now has three great masters!
There was really too much news that broke out this night.
It is difficult for Chen Pingping and Fan Jian not to doubt this.
However, no matter how suspicious they were, at this moment, both of them honestly let 'Qing Emperor' control the rhythm.
When the two of them sat down, 'Emperor Qing' took a deep breath and said with a trace of guilt in his eyes:
"I don't mean to hide some things from you, but since some secrets are secrets, the fewer people who know them, the better. I'll give you two a chance. If you want to ask any questions, you can ask them now. If you can answer them, I will give you an answer."
Fan Jian is the simplest among the three, and has the most doubts in his mind. However, he remembers his duties as a king and his ministers, and even if he has doubts in his heart, he is not willing to ask 'Emperor Qing' in a questioning tone.
On the contrary, Chen Pingping, who has always called herself 'Your Majesty's Loyal Dog', heard that Emperor Qing was going to the temple to retreat, and knew that this was her last chance to know some truths, so she didn't care about any taboos and just kept it in her heart. The secret of many years was revealed:
"Your Majesty, I have only one question. I wonder if your Majesty can explain it to me."
'Emperor Qing' seemed to have guessed what Chen Pingping was going to ask, but he still said with an indifferent expression:
"Just ask."
"Your Majesty, how did the young lady die?"
Chen Pingping's question made everyone present look blank for a second.
The young lady Chen Pingping refers to is naturally Ye Qingmei, who became famous more than twenty years ago.
Fifteen years ago, Ye Qingmei, who was pregnant and gave birth to a child, was suddenly assassinated and died, leaving her body intact.
】
Chen Pingping secretly investigated for fifteen years and found that the biggest suspect was the 'Qing Emperor' in front of him.
When Su Mingzhe and Eunuch Hou heard Chen Pingping's question, they looked at their nose and heart, as if they didn't hear anything.
Only Fan Jian's heart skipped a beat, and then he looked at 'Qing Emperor' with Chen Pingping in surprise.
He also had the same doubts in his heart, but he was not willing to target 'Qing Emperor' with suspicion before.
'Qing Emperor' was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked at Chen Pingping:
"I can't explain this matter. Eunuch Hou, please go and bring Fan Xian and Xiaoye over."
Early this morning, Fan Xian and Xiao Ye were summoned to the palace by Emperor Qing, and they had already acknowledged their marriage.
Now Fan Xian and Xiao Ye are chatting and resting in the side hall.
After receiving the notice from Eunuch Hou, Fan Xian took the lead and was led into the imperial study.
As soon as Fan Xian walked in, he first saw Fan Jian and Chen Pingping. He came to Beijing in September and had already met Chen Pingping in more than a month, so he greeted them first:
"Father, Dean Chen."
Fan Jian reminded:
"Meet Your Majesty first."
Fan Xian took two more steps indifferently, saluted Emperor Qing and Su Mingzhe:
"Fan Xian, meet my father and brother."
Fan Xian in the TV series has a happy-go-lucky character.
In the morning, 'Emperor Qing' summoned Fan Xian into the palace and told him that he was not the illegitimate son of Si Nan Bo Fan Jian, but the illegitimate son of Emperor Qing.
Xiao Ye is the reincarnation of Fan Xian's Ye Qingmei.
To be honest, Fan Xian was a little confused when he was first informed of his identity by Emperor Qing.
However, just now Xiaoye took Fan Xian to a side hall and told Fan Xian about his identity as a 'traveler'.
Fan Xian was indeed surprised at first.
However, after thinking for a while, he remembered that he had also 'travelled', and it seemed quite reasonable to have an emperor's father and a time-traveler mother.
Then Xiaoye entered the imperial study room.
After Chen Pingping and Fan Jian saw Xiaoye, they finally couldn't help showing expressions of surprise.
In fact, both of them met Xiaoye some time ago.
However, both of them only found out that Xiaoye was Su Mingzhe's maid, and did not know the true details of Xiaoye and Su Mingzhe.
Now, Emperor Qing took Xiaoye into the palace and explained to the two of them that she was the reincarnation of Ye Qingmei.
The temple is a legendary place in this world.
Ye Qingmei herself came from the temple, and now she is resurrected in the temple, which seems to be something beyond doubt.
'Emperor Qing' explained Xiaoye's situation and then said:
"I have asked the clan government to register Xian'er's name in the register as my third son, and canonize him as Prince Rui. As for..."
Xiaoye saw that 'Qing Emperor' wanted to arrange for him, so he quickly said:
"As long as I still live in Su Mansion."
"As you wish."
'Emperor Qing' seemed helpless to Ye Qingmei, and then waved his hand, indicating that if Chen Pingping and Fan Jian had any questions, they could ask Xiaoye.
Fan Jian had thousands of words he wanted to say, but for a while, he couldn't find the opening words.
Chen Pingping was thoughtful and learned that Xiaoye would continue to live in Kyoto City, with a warm smile on her face:
"Your Majesty, since Miss Xiaoye lives in Kyoto City, I would like to pay you a visit in a few days."
'Emperor Qing' said indifferently:
"It's up to you. I'll be leaving in a few days, so I won't say goodbye to you."
When Chen Pingping and Fan Jian saw that Emperor Qing was in a waning mood, they obviously didn't want to continue chatting, so they left without staying any longer.
As for Fan Xian and Xiaoye, they also left the palace together.
As soon as he left the palace, Fan Xian couldn't help but pull Xiao Ye, and said with a naive smile in his eyes:
"Mom, do you want to come back to Fan Mansion with me?"
"Don't call me mother."
Xiaoye said helplessly:
"In my memory, although I am Ye Qingmei, I don't remember being pregnant..."
"It's not important. Anyway, from a blood perspective, I am your son."
Fan Xian's feelings for Xiaoye are very complicated.
On the one hand, everyone is a time traveler, so they are naturally friendly and have no worries about chatting.
Furthermore, for the reason he said, he was indeed Xiaoye's son in terms of blood.
After talking for a while, Fan Xian remembered something and reminded Xiaoye:
"Mom, do you remember Uncle Wu Zhu?"
"Wuzhu? Xiao Zhuzhu?"
After hearing Fan Xian's words, Xiaoye's eyes were filled with surprise:
"Xiao Zhuzhu, are you following you now?"
Among the memories that Xiaoye retains is the memory of living in the temple with Wu Zhu.
When Su Mingzhe sent her memory data and resurrected her, she still felt sorry that Wu Zhu was not in the temple.
Unexpectedly, in a twist of events, his robot partner has been accompanying his 'son'.
Not to mention, Xiaoye followed Fan Xian to the Fan Mansion as a guest.
'Emperor Qing' first went to Yanshou Palace to visit the Empress Dowager in the palace.
The concubines who had served Emperor Qing were chatting with the Empress Dowager at this time.
These concubines include the former queen, Yigui concubines, Ningcai people, etc.
In the past, when Emperor Qing was on the throne, these concubines took it for granted that they were not favored anyway, so it would not matter if they changed to another emperor.
However, when 'Emperor Qing' really disappeared, these women immediately understood that 'Emperor Qing' was really their god.
And the concubines who lost the 'Qing Emperor' could only be locked into the deep palace for the rest of their lives and slowly turned into decay.
Only when you have lost can you cherish what you have.
In order to seize the few opportunities, these concubines came to Yanshou Palace early in the morning and waited for the 'Qing Emperor' to appear.
The Empress Dowager also saw what these women were thinking, and she didn't want 'Emperor Qing' to leave, so she helped these concubines make excuses without having a few words with 'Emperor Qing', and said:
"Your Majesty, the Ai family is sleepy, let them wait for you to rest."
"The kid resigned."
'Emperor Qing' looked at more than twenty women, all looking at him with green eyes. Even though he had been on the battlefield for a long time, he felt a little scared at this time.
Will these women eat themselves alive in a while?
