"Your Majesty, I have the same idea as Su Xiang." Yu Lingyun also solemnly followed up.
"The same goes for me, too."
"I am willing to do my best for Your Majesty."
…
After the ministers finished expressing their stance, they looked at His Majesty who remained calm and uneasy.
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Don't you think it's ridiculous for a woman to become the emperor?"
"If this person is Your Majesty, I don't think it's ridiculous. I support Your Majesty." Su Xiang was still the first to speak out.
"Your Majesty, so do I."
"I know your Majesty will not understand, but this is the result of our careful consideration. You are indeed the most suitable to be the emperor. The old ministers will fully support your Majesty. I also ask your Majesty to think about the thousands of people in Yu." Zhang Zhijie, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, said In the end, my old eyes turned red.
"Your Majesty is not inferior to women. Although you are a woman, you are stronger than most men in the world. If it is ridiculous for you to be the emperor, then there will really be no one else who can do it. I support your Majesty." Xu Jingsi, the Minister of Rites, was also thinking at this moment. He stood up and spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, all the ministers present, including Prime Minister Su, looked at him in surprise, their eyes seeming to say, I didn't expect you to be such a Master Xu.
No wonder they are so surprised now, the main reason is that Mr. Xu is usually dull and boring, and etiquette is almost engraved into his bones. At first, he was quite critical of the fact that His Majesty is a woman, but he changed his mind later. Unexpectedly, today This guy actually talks like this...such a bitch?
He wouldn't say such things normally.
The remaining ministers also expressed their absolute support for His Majesty. "
Lu Qing: "..." What if she doesn't want their support?
"I didn't expect that you guys are quite advanced in thinking, huh? Although you have no objection, my brothers, sisters, and relatives of the Dayu royal family don't think so. It's impossible to hide my identity. They have the right to fight for it. Do you understand this position?" In short, Lu Qing just doesn't want to be the emperor.
[Being an emperor will lead to a short life. He is as tiring as a dog. Every day there are endless memorials and endless morning court meetings. He wakes up earlier than a chicken and goes to bed later than a dog. Who has loved and lived such a life? Anyway, I can't! 】
Hearing the sound, the ministers fell silent collectively, not knowing what to say for a while.
His Majesty is not greedy for power. They said it was a headache!
"Your Majesty, I have never thought of hiding your true identity forever. I will find an opportunity to tell you this matter, and I will not let anyone bother you." When Su Xiang said this, His eyes were extremely serious.
Seeing that they understood what he was thinking, Lu Qing still pretended not to understand. Feeling helpless, Lu Qing decided to speak more frankly.
"I will not accept this memorial. Since you are already familiar with it, Su Aiqing, it will be up to you to give instructions in the future. I haven't learned anything in these years, so I don't know how to comment on memorials. Also, the word "I" is really not big. I won't show off my ugliness in the elegant hall." Don't let her work!
"..."
"Your Majesty! You don't know how old ministers and others can teach you! How can veterans review these memorials? This is disrespectful! Your Majesty, please stop joking!" Su Xiang was as big as two heads.
"Or do you think this will work? In the first month, the veteran will lead the ministers to teach you how to review. How about it?" Su Xiang racked his brains to come up with such a way to get the best of both worlds.
Lu Qing: It’s really hard for them not to give up!
"No, I am not what you want, why can't I change it? You should choose another prince or princess, I am not suitable." They should be dissatisfied after talking like this, right?
Lu Qing was so anxious that he even forgot to call me.
"Your Majesty!..."
Lu Qing was startled by the screams and cries. When he looked at the ministers again, he saw several people crying loudly. Even Su Xiang, who had always been indifferent to emotions and anger, had red eyes. Lu Qing instantly Feeling extremely guilty.
She deserves to be pissed off at such an old age, she deserves to die! Under such great sadness, Lu Qing was afraid that these old ministers who could be his grandfather would pass by, and he suddenly felt a little soft-hearted.
So he didn't speak as hard as before.
"Stop crying and howling. I will discuss something with you first. If you agree, I will accept these memorials." Lu Qing said in a deep voice while rubbing his sore temples.
Hearing this, the crying and howling suddenly stopped.
The ministers suddenly raised their heads and said in unison, "Your Majesty, please speak!"
There was no trace of the grief on his face just now.
Lu Qing: "..." I really believed your evil deeds!
However, thinking of what he had considered before, Lu Qing decided to say, "I will only stay on this throne for one year. During this period, I will try my best to change the future outcome of Dayu, but I will not I can give you a guarantee that it will be successful. In this year, you will find the next successor. When the time is up, I will leave. If you agree, then nod. If you don’t agree, then this matter will not happen. Need to talk.”
Hearing this, several ministers present immediately wanted to refute, but looking at His Majesty's serious expression, they stopped speaking for a moment.
Your Majesty is serious!
Several people did not dare to be careful. They knew that it was useless to cry and howl at this time. His Majesty wanted a definite answer and would not allow them to escape from this question.
As time passed, the ministers also stood up, and the atmosphere was heavier than ever.
Lu Qing is not in a hurry for their answers. If they answer immediately, she will wonder if they are perfunctory with her. The answer she gets after careful consideration is the answer she wants.
She is very clear-headed. If she wants to have a better life in the future, Dayu must be well, so she is willing to suffer for such a year for the future. That's why she just wanted to discuss the matter with several ministers.
These are all important figures in the government, and their promises are very weighty. I think they will think carefully about her words from today on.
She doesn't want to be the emperor, it's not just playing hard to get, she really doesn't want to be.
After a long time, several ministers in the distance stopped discussing.
The representative they sent was still Prime Minister Su. All the ministers in the room felt that Prime Minister Su had the highest official position, so he should be the one to speak to His Majesty.
"Your Majesty, the old minister and others have just discussed it, and we agree to what you said." When Su Xiang said this, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
It was only at this moment that they truly understood the depth of His Majesty's determination.
The result was as expected by Lu Qing. After hearing this, she smiled and said, "That's it, thank you for your hard work, dear friends!"
As a result, several ministers left the Xuanzheng Hall in despair.
In the blink of an eye, the New Year's Eve banquet arrived as scheduled.
The palace was decorated with lanterns and colors and was very lively.
Carriages, either gorgeous or low-key, drove slowly from Zhuque Street to the palace gate.
