The country changed hands, the New Deal was implemented, and the new emperor issued an order to severely punish corruption. Hundreds of officials were dismissed, ranging from the emperor's relatives to the local government offices.
The common people's favorable impression of the new emperor doubled, while the officials were cautious about their words and deeds, for fear that they would also be caught in a dark prison.
Although Xiao Moyun has been handling government affairs on the throne for more than half a month, he has not yet conducted a formal enthronement ceremony. The Ministry of Rites sends a letter to remind him every day, but Xiao Moyun directly puts it aside.
Xiao Moyun has not returned to Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion for more than half a month. It's not that he is too busy with government affairs to go back, or that he doesn't want to go back. It's just that he hasn't figured out how to face Yue Ci and how to get along with Yue Ci.
Unlike Xiao Moyun who was busy, Yue Ci was leisurely and comfortable in Xiaoyao Palace.
Since Xiao Moyun successfully ascended to the throne, three-quarters of the mission has been completed, and the remaining quarter has been slowly advanced in the past half month. It is only a matter of time before the mission is completed.
Yue Ci asked the main system if there was any way to speed up the completion of the task, but the main system was also confused and had no method.
There is nothing interesting to do just staying in the palace. When Yue Ci gets bored, she will go out for a walk. You can buy some delicious snacks, stop and watch the wonderful sideshows, or go into the teahouse and sit and listen to the calligrapher telling stories vividly.
Everything seems to be going for the good.
But before Xiao Moyun could make up his mind to go back to see Yue Ci, an urgent report came from the border gate. The small country that was originally a subordinate country suddenly came to the city with troops. He thought that he knew that the country he surrendered had changed hands, and the timing was just right, so he tried to tear off a piece of flesh from a country several times larger than himself.
There was no general in the court who could lead the troops on the expedition, so Xiao Moyun had no choice but to lead the expedition himself and put on his battle armor again.
When the late emperor Xiao Yan was in power, he emphasized civility over military affairs, otherwise there would not be a need for Xiao Moyun to go out in person.
Although Xiao Moyun was fully confident that he could win this battle, and he also asked trusted elders to help with the government affairs. If it couldn't be solved, he would send people to the border to solve it for him. However, it would take at least three or four months before he could come back.
Xiao Moyun stood in front of the gate of Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion and did not move for a long time, holding the horse on the expedition.
He wanted to see Yue Ci before setting off, but he didn't know what to do if he did.
It was almost time to set off, and the soldiers were already waiting outside the city gate, just waiting for him to arrive before setting off.
In the end, Xiao Moyun did not enter the palace. He stepped on the stirrup and sat astride the horse.
"drive!"
Leave with whip raised.
The main system broadcasts Xiao Moyun's movements in real time. I don't know what the goddess is thinking in her heart.
Outside the city gate, officials gave the new emperor a performance, hoping for a triumphant return, and then officially set off.
Outside the palace, Yue Ci got into the carriage that had been prepared and entered the palace.
Not all the government affairs and memorials in the court were handed over to the elders of the court. Instead, Song Zhi, who was specially left by Xiao Moyun, screened them first, keeping the important memorials, and then ordered others to be sent to the elders.
When Yue Ci stepped into the hall, Song Zhi was sorting out today's memorials. Since he had just started, his speed and efficiency were slow.
Song Zhi, who was concentrating on his work, didn't even notice Yue Ci entering the palace.
After Yue Ci approached, he picked up a smaller pile of memorials that had been selected and opened it.
Unfortunately, this is a memorial urging Xiao Moyun to fill the harem and multiply the emperor's heirs.
"Princess, no, Queen, why are you here?"
Song Zhi looked up and saw Yue Ci who was reading the memorial. He immediately put down the memorial in his hand and came out to salute.
Yue Cixin calmly folded the memorial in her hand and put it back to its original place.
"Do these need to be reviewed?"
Where his eyes fell, he saw a table full of memorials and a stack of letters.
"Yes." Song Zhi replied, "Before the emperor goes on the expedition, he ordered his subordinates to screen all the memorials first. The ones here can be sent directly to the elders for processing, while the ones here have to wait for the emperor to come back for review. These are I ordered people to hurry up and send it to the border for the emperor’s personal approval.”
"I'll do it, no need to divide."
Yue Ci walked inside and sat down, casually took out a hanging brush, dipped it in ink, and started marking.
Because his movements were so skillful, Song Zhi didn't feel anything was wrong for a while.
After Yue Ci had finished reviewing several copies, Song Zhi realized what he had done. He picked up the reviewed memorial and took a look at it. He found that the handling method was very similar to that of the emperor.
Xiao Moyun specifically ordered Song Zhi to obey the empress's orders before setting off for the expedition, that is, to obey Yue Ci's orders.
Now Yue Ci has to review the memorial, and Song Zhi mistakenly thinks that it was Xiao Moyun who agreed. After all, Song Zhi knows the importance of the Queen in the Emperor's heart better than anyone else.
So Yue Ci once again dealt with the political affairs that the emperor should resolve after an unknown period of time.
The main system was confused as to why the goddess handled the matter so easily and smoothly. Yue Ci only said that she had been an empress in other small worlds.
Yue Ci did not review all memorials. Some less important memorials were selected by Song Zhi and sent to the elders.
Song Zhi wrote a letter every five days to inform Emperor Xiao Moyun, who was on an expedition to the border, about the situation in the court.
When Xiao Moyun learned that Yue Ci would review the memorial and handle it well, he was surprised for a moment, and then accepted it.
He guessed that before meeting him, Yue Ci might have been to other worlds, been an emperor, and handled government affairs.
But why did she come to help him complete his mission? What is his mission?
Xiao Moyun had a lot of doubts and confusions in his heart.
