The chief steward waved the fly whisk with a sad expression, as if he had exhausted all his strength and shouted: "Your Majesty, please come to Qinzheng Palace!"
The voice was clearly transmitted through Yuan Palace, and the chief steward hurriedly walked towards Li Zheng.
"Your Majesty, let us help you!"
The prince also hurriedly greeted him: "Father, be careful, I will support you!"
Li Zheng raised his hand to signal the two of them to disperse, and looked at Liu Mingzhi, who was standing aside with a sad expression, with a chuckle.
"You all step aside, Mingzhi, come and support me before I go to court."
"My son, I obey."
Young Master Liu glanced at the prince, walked towards Li Zheng, supported Li Zheng's arm and walked towards the outside of Yu'an Palace.
"Father, be careful where you step."
Li Zheng stepped out of the tall threshold of the palace gate with difficulty, and looked at the majestic palace with eyes full of nostalgia.
This is the place that I have worked hard to manage for thirty-five years. Since then, I have grown from a young man in his prime to an old man on the verge of death.
Thirty-five years passed by in the blink of an eye, and it was so fast that I couldn't react.
Knowing destiny at fifty, it turns out that I am already fifty years old.
The years really haven't spared me for a moment, corroding my body every day.
Old, really old.
But I am not willing to give in. I have not yet seen the unification of the world. I have only just begun to spread my power overseas.
Li Zheng resented the injustice of God and sighed silently: "Mingzhi, I am really old. Fortunately, I am still holding on for breath, and finally waited for you to come back!"
"I thought you had such a lazy temper, but I can't wait any longer! God has lived up to my expectations after all, allowing you and I, the king and my ministers, to see each other one last time."
Liu Ming silently supported Li Zheng: "Father, how could I dare to slack off in the eight hundred miles of urgent orders? Although the road was blocked by heavy snow, fortunately, I finally came back and could see my father again. !”
"Well, even if I blame you wrongly this time, is Yan'er back?"
"I'm back. I went to say hello to my mother!"
"It'll be good to come back. It'll be good to come back. We haven't seen him for so long. I really miss him. Is my grandson Liu Chengqian back?"
"On the way, Cheng Qian is too young, so my son-in-law didn't let him ride with him on the journey. We arranged a carriage and we can arrive in less than three days!"
"Okay, I think I can still hold on for three days!"
"Fuhai!"
"Your Majesty, we are here!"
"It is my word of mouth that all the concubines, princes, and princesses in the harem should come to the Qinzheng Hall to listen to the government!"
"According to the order!"
"Mingzhi, help Father come over!"
"My son, I obey, father, please watch your step!"
Liu Mingzhi supported Li Zheng, who was struggling, and followed a group of eunuchs and maids as they walked towards the Qinzheng Palace.
"No, I have to take a breath."
In a short journey, Li Zheng had to rest three times before arriving at the back hall of Qinzheng Hall.
Li Zheng sat on the dragon chair in the back hall, panting, waiting for Fuhai's reply.
Only when all the concubines from the harem have arrived can he go to court.
"Father, have a cup of tea and take a breather!"
Li Zheng smiled lightly and took the tea cup handed by Liu Mingzhi: "You still have the eyes, but it's a pity that I met you too late. It's been ten years, and our father and son have only met for ten years. Otherwise, we would have met sooner, with your help. After that, the world should have been unified in my hands long ago!"
"Father, I just lament that God is not kind. My father's kindness to me over the years will be unforgettable by me forever."
"I have some kindness, and you deserve it too."
"In the past ten years, you have solved countless problems for me, big and small. I am not an unprincipled king. I will reward you for my merits and punish you for my mistakes."
"You kid, you've done a lot of good work, and you've also made me angry. I admire you and gnash my teeth at you."
"Please forgive me, Father. My son was a naughty character when he was young, which caused Father to worry about me."
"It doesn't matter whether it's troublesome or not. There has to be a process when people grow up. Everyone has a time when they are young and energetic. I was also ridiculous when I was young. Now it's different to turn around and change my past."
"It's just that when I'm gone, you must never be so lazy again."
"Not every emperor is as tolerant as I am!"
"My son, I obey the decree and must remember my father's teachings."
Li Zheng looked at Liu Mingzhi with complicated eyes and sighed.
"That's all, Lao Zhou!"
"Your Majesty, we are here!"
"Edict!"
The chief steward hurriedly took the ink pen aside and waited.
"As long as Dingguo Gong Liu Mingzhi does not seek power to usurp the throne, rebel and deceive the emperor, he will be exempted from death for the following major and minor crimes."
Lao Zhouyi was stunned and looked at Liu Mingzhi in amazement: "We obey the order!"
While the general manager was writing, Li Zheng looked faintly at Li Baiyu, who also looked a little stunned.
"Prince?"
Li Baiyu immediately came to his senses: "My son, I obey the order."
Li Zheng nodded silently and raised his hand to pat Liu Mingzhi, whose face was also astonished: "Mingzhi, there has never been any gap between us as kings and ministers."
"It is also a rare good story between the kings and ministers of the Great Dragon Dynasty."
"For this good story, my father finally gave you an amulet. I hope you will not use this amulet to help others and do evil things."
"I have betrayed my father's good intentions. When the time comes, my father will be scolded by future generations for being indistinguishable between loyal and traitorous people, and for knowing others poorly. I will let my father die in peace!"
Liu Mingzhi knelt gently in front of Li Zheng. This kneeling was not that of a monarch or a subject, but that of a son-in-law.
"My little boy Liu Mingzhi, you must remember the teachings and never let down your father's kindness!"
"Don't kneel down all the time. I'm disgusted with this. It will destroy the backbone of our Han family."
"You people still don't understand what I really like. I give you the honor of not bowing before you, but you just don't like to see the important ministers of the dynasty groveling and submissive in front of me."
"What goes above and what does it mean, if all the tens of millions of people in our dragon are turned into soft bones, you people will bear a great responsibility!"
"I have repeatedly told you that my dragon is not interested in kneeling down and worshiping me. Why don't you people listen?"
"Father, please forgive me. This is a son-in-law kneeling to his father-in-law. You should accept it."
"This sounds good to me, I like it."
"Your Majesty, the Queen, along with a group of concubines and princes and princesses, have entered the palace from the main entrance and are waiting for Your Majesty to come to court!"
Li Zheng put down the tea cup: "Mingzhi helps me stand up. In my position, I will plan my government. I will be a king for a day, and I will be a king for a lifetime."
"Even if I'm going to die, I still have to deal with the last group of people!"
Liu Mingzhi nodded with sour eyes: "Yes, I will help you up!"
"Your Majesty is here!"
"Long live my emperor!"
"No courtesy, please take a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The Qinzheng Hall, which used to be relatively spacious, is now almost full of people kneeling and sitting there.
Civil and military officials, important ministers from all over the country who rushed back to the capital, vassal kings, concubines in the harem, and princes and princesses who have not yet left their residences are all included in this list.
There was a cloud of sadness in the palace, so people knew in their hearts that this was probably the last time they would attend Emperor Ruian's court.
Liu Mingzhi helped Li Zheng sit on the dragon chair, and then walked down from one side to kneel in the queue.
Li Zheng raised his head to stop Liu Mingzhi.
"Mingzhi, you don't have to go down, just stand next to your father before the court."
The title of Mingzhi, Emperor Father, not Liu Aiqing and me shocked all the civil and military officials.
Liu Mingzhi was stunned and quickly came to his senses: "Father, how dare I stand on the dragon platform!"
The chief steward can stand on the dragon platform, the prince can stand, the empress dowager and the empress can sit nearby, but foreign ministers have never had the honor of standing on the dragon platform next to the emperor's dragon chair to listen to the court.
Li Zheng majestically glanced at the astonished civil and military officials below: "Father said you can stand, so you can stand. Stand next to father and listen to the court!"
"This... I obey your order!"
Some of the people below stared blankly at Mr. Liu, who was standing on the dragon platform with the prince on the left and right, and their thoughts were mixed.
This is to place Duke Dingguo in the same position as the prince. In the future, when the prince ascends the throne, he will be the auxiliary minister in charge of the government.
Although Young Master Liu had served as regent, at that time it was just Li Zheng's plan.
Once the prince ascends the throne, the auxiliary ministers will be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Li Baihong, Li Yunlong and other vassal kings looked at Liu Mingzhi unwillingly. They understood that this was what their father had shown them.
The talents of the country's scholars have been completely tied to the prince's chariot, and it is time to stop those unrealistic thoughts.
Suddenly, some people are happy and some are sad
