Does she blame herself for punishing Zhu Ya so severely, or does she think he is cruel and inhumane like outsiders?
Also, half of the reports in the court in the past few days were written to admonish him for indiscriminate killing, like a flood.
Yan Xiu was so angry that he sneered: "If I don't punish you harshly, everyone in the world can make fun of our reputation! These will be written down in the history books, Cicada, you don't have to care about you Myself, but I care."
"The imperial throne has always been poured with blood. This is the cruelest rule. Anyone who cannot accept it will be completely defeated."
After being emperor for nearly twelve years, has he not received enough infamy? Everything he did was for the Qin Dynasty, and also for his own selfishness. He was the emperor, so why not have selfishness?
Wish Scarlett is his most selfish wish.
"Your Majesty, I am not stupid." How could Zhu Sijia not understand these principles? But the sadness in her heart as a woman who had no control over her fate could not be dissipated, "I am tired, please Your Majesty, please let me calm down alone."
She could deliberately submit to Yan Xiu as usual, but this time, she didn't want to.
She should not have been trapped by this square palace. If she had not entered the palace, she could go to her shop whenever she wanted without having to hide it like now.
God was not kind to her but also extremely cruel. Even if she was allowed to be reborn one day earlier, she would have thought of other ways to get out of her marriage to Yan Xing instead of climbing into Yan Xiu's bed out of sheer enthusiasm.
She was not wrong, and Zhu Ya was not wrong either. She should not be wronged, let alone suffer this unwarranted charge.
"Zhu Sijia, why do you have to avoid the important and take the easy one every time? I just want to get a definite answer from you, so why is it so difficult?"
"You are just relying on me to like you, so you are going too far, right? We are husband and wife, and we are a couple who worshiped in the Tai Chi Palace with the sky as a witness, the sun and the moon as a mirror. Have you ever regarded me as your husband? "
After being taken around in such a big circle by her, Yan Xiu still didn't get a definite answer from her.
Thinking back to when they first met, she was the one who was groveling and bowing her head to please him. Her attitude often made him dissatisfied.
He still prefers the current Zhu Sijia, who is slowly emerging, slowly regaining her personality, and slowly living the way she should have.
The moon waxes and wanes, how can we get the best of both worlds? It was nice to wish Scarlett well now, but it also caused him a lot more pain.
Zhu Sijia avoided his painful gaze: "Your Majesty has been with me for so long. Doesn't your Majesty know what kind of person I am?"
"If your Majesty really trusted me, you would never ask such a ridiculous question. I am despicable and know that I am not worthy of your Majesty. How can I dare to call myself your Majesty's wife?"
Insignificant?
Yan Xiu suddenly understood what she wanted, and with a flick of his sleeves, he strode out of Changle Palace: "Okay, okay! You are looking down on yourself, right? I will go back now and issue an order to establish you as the Queen of Qin!" "
Make her your queen?
Zhu Sijia never thought that she would climb to that position. Yan Xiu always kept his word. He often said that what he said was irreversible. Even if it was an impulsive oath, he would stick to it.
The wife's party has not yet fallen, and the new party is also eyeing it. At this juncture, if she is appointed as queen, he will have to bear all the controversies and consequences that will arise. Is he crazy? Doesn’t he care most about reputation?
He must be stopped.
Zhu Sijia hurriedly ran out, but was stopped by the imperial guards stationed in front of Changle Palace. She looked at Yan Xiu's retreating back and hurriedly shouted: "Get out of the way! I have something important to report to Your Majesty, and I was late." Punish your sins.”
The Imperial Guard remained motionless: "I wish to inform you, Jieyu, that your confinement has not been lifted yet. I apologize for the humiliation of your position and the inability to obey your orders."
She could only watch as Yan Xiu disappeared around the corner of the palace wall.
It happened that at this time, a dragon guard passed by the gate of Changle Palace. It was not unusual for the dragon guard to appear in the palace.
Zhu Sijia caught sight of the red color and hatched a plan. She called out to the two dragon guards holding swords across the imperial army: "You two, come over and go outside the palace to relay my words to Prince Xiang and let him enter." Please report to your majesty in the palace."
The guards guarding the Forbidden Army never expected that what Zhu Sijia was going to say would actually alarm the Dragon Guards. It must have been a shocking event. After looking at each other in confusion, they pretended that nothing had happened.
The dragon guard walked over cautiously.
Zhu Sijia whispered for a while, and the two dragon guards looked hesitant. She hurriedly urged: "What are you doing standing still? Go quickly."
…
The snowy building.
Yan Wei frowned and asked the two of them again and again: "Did she really say that?"
Dragon Guard: "I dare not conceal the truth."
It's simply unreasonable.
Yan Xiu chuckled softly: "I have never seen a woman who can be unhappy when she becomes a queen, but she is the first one - by the way, why does she know about the relationship between me and Yanxue Tower? Could it be that she knows something she shouldn't know? Already?"
Another dragon guard thought for a while and then said: "My lord, don't worry too much. Maybe Zhu Jieyu knows that you have a close relationship with His Majesty, so she thought of asking you to come forward to convince His Majesty."
Consider her smart.
What he said made sense. In order to dispel his doubts, Yan put on the big cloak and said, "Enter the palace to meet the saint."
Tai Chi Palace.
Yan Xiu personally drafted the imperial edict and pressed the jade seal without hesitation when it came time to seal it.
By the light, his fingers ran over the still-dry words on the edict over and over again. This was not only a promise, but also her confidence.
If Zhu Sijia had not come from Prince Yan's palace, even if she was just a commoner, Yan Xiu would have made her his queen long ago.
There were too many obstacles between them. He saw that all living beings had no intention of doing so, but he just fell in love with Zhu Sijia.
He should never fall in love with a woman named Zhu.
Today, he spoke nonsense to Zhu Sijia out of impulse. Tomorrow morning, he will declare this imperial edict to the world, and there will be countless refuting voices in the court.
Although there is no conflict of interest among the relatives and gang members, everyone wants to replace the Zhang family. Why have the Zhang family and the Yan Prince's family been allowed to dominate for so many years? I am afraid that Prime Minister Zhang himself does not want to see this situation, after all, his own granddaughter has been sent to the palace.
Most of the New Party officials were sent by him to provide disaster relief, and all the officials in the court, except for the generals, were from the Old Party. Once the edict is issued this time, everything he has done to suppress his relatives from seizing power over the years will be in vain, which will definitely cause dissatisfaction with the New Party.
Yan Xiu then thought about it, he had been willful many times, what about this one more time?
Thinking like this, he put down the imperial edict and prepared to go to sleep. Unexpectedly, at the moment when he made up his mind, Yan Wei asked to see him.
Yan Xiu didn't think much and let him enter the palace.
"Your Majesty, the establishment of a queen is a major matter for the country and even the foundation of a country. Please consider it carefully."
Yan Wei knelt in the center of the main hall and spoke solemnly.
There was no emotion in Yan Xiu's eyes: "I have made up my mind, no one can persuade me."
Yan Wei felt that Yan Xiu had become more and more insane since he got Zhu Sijia. He boldly said: "Your Majesty might as well think about attacking Zhou and Qi next year."
