Chapter 497: One person is below ten thousand people (seventeen)
After the morning court, the proud emperor ran back to Rongyue's bedroom. She was so haggard that she was so scared that she begged for mercy and refused.
The emperor felt a little wronged, but he also knew that she suffered last night, so he just kissed and hugged her, and did not do anything else.
The emperor and the empress have deep affection, and the people who serve the empress see it and are happy in their hearts. After all, if she lives a better life, they will live a better life.
When Mrs. Rong entered the palace, she looked at Rong Yue's dark circles that were hard to cover up. She was happy for her and worried about her body.
"Your Majesty can treat you well?" Mrs. Rong held Rong Yue's hand and said softly.
"Your Majesty treats me very well, but it's so good that I can't bear it. I understand why the emperor is destined to have only one woman."
Rong Yue said happily and fearfully, asking Mrs. Rong to poke her face in anger, telling her to fulfill her responsibilities as a queen of a country and not to indulge in her children's love.
"Daughter understands." Rong Yue nodded. As the lord of the central palace, she had something she needed to worry about. After delaying for so many days, it was time to take care of it.
But Rong Yue, who intended to perform the duties of the queen, was obstructed by the concubines. After all, when Rong Yue had not entered the palace, the harem affairs were shared by them and they were used to it.
Although they knew that this was the power belonging to the queen, they just didn't want to fulfill it because for them, this was the only thing that could prove their own value.
Rong Yue took this as a test for herself, and was about to divide it into pieces, breaking it one by one, and gaining a foothold step by step, the emperor took action.
The emperor's decisive decree came down, and all the concubines who tried to rely on their seniority were driven to the imperial village for retirement.
Anyway, his mother died long ago, and there was no serious empress dowager. The harem was the queen, so how could they be arrogant?
Rong Yue was very moved by the emperor's actions to protect him. She calmed down and focused on managing the affairs of the harem for him. It was a bit difficult at first, but she was smart and willing to learn, so she quickly got started.
In private, Rong Yue also had a conversation with the emperor and bluntly stated that the emperor and the empress had their own responsibilities, and the emperor only needed to manage the court and no longer had to worry about the trivialities of the harem.
The emperor understood Rong Yue's meaning, let go of his hands completely, and handed over the harem to her.
At this time, Shangshu Rong asked for a trip. The emperor and he had a long time to talk back and forth, and finally chose to fulfill his wish. Lord Rong, who had successfully retired, took his wife to travel around and play in the mountains and rivers.
As soon as they left, the two sons of the Rong family who had been in another place were transferred back and entered the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue respectively, which shows the emperor's importance to them.
No one dares to doubt what the emperor wants. For those who are calm, everything has just begun. How many descendants have been able to have a good ending throughout the ages?
Rong Li followed Lord Rong immediately and resigned from his post and returned home. Instead of returning to his hometown as everyone thought, he continued to stay in the imperial city.
Judging from the emperor's appearance, I think it was the monarch and his ministers who had reached some agreement in private.
So what if Rong Li stayed in the imperial city? He withdrew from the court and handed over all the power in his hands to the emperor, he was just a tiger with no teeth and claws, and he was not afraid of it.
It is not a fear, but until now no one dares to touch Rong Li. When he sees him, he is still respectful and polite, and dare not make any mistakes.
"Aren't you afraid if you don't leave?" Prime Minister Guo came to Rong Li to play chess, looked at his face and said softly.
"You didn't leave either, are you afraid?" Rong Li put down a dark spot, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.
Prime Minister Guo touched his nose, "I think, Your Majesty refused to let go, saying that he wanted me to train a successor before letting me go."
Rong Li nodded and said, "It's easy to say anything else. The prime minister of this country should be more cautious, so as not to cause harm to others and ruin the situation created by us old guys."
"Speaking of this, the best person is Murong Wen, who doesn't have to worry about anything. He just takes the children around to play, which is really enviable."
When Prime Minister Guo remembered the scene he saw on the street, Murong Min's silly smile made people look unconscious and yearned for her.
Rong Li put down another dark spot and said, "Why do you have envy? Don't you have children and grandchildren? Are you talking about these in front of me? Are you looking for a beating?"
"Hey, wait a minute, the chess game just now is not like this. When will your black piece come to me? You are cheating!" Prime Minister Guo realized it and pointed to the chessboard and said.
Rong Li said sincerely: "You remembered it wrong!"
Prime Minister Guo sneered, quickly restored the chess piece, and said proudly: "Do you want to deceive me? I remember back then, I taught the people of Qianguo a lesson with my ability to remember everything!"
"Oh." Rong Li raised his eyebrows, shook his hands, and the chessboard turned around, "Oh, what should I do now?"
"..." Prime Minister Guo was so angry that he clenched his fists and rushed directly at Rong Li. The two people who were over 100 years old were now fighting like three-year-old children.
The servants around them looked at the nose, nose and heart, but they did not dare to pay too much attention.
After a fight, Prime Minister Guo covered his face and returned to the mansion. Rong Li Ze rubbed his chin. Oh, Prime Minister Guo is old, he was able to slash his original chin with one punch.
But it was the original body who gave in to him, otherwise he would have been beaten to death.
After a few days of rest, while the court was fine, Rong Li went to the palace to meet the emperor and handed him the jade talisman of the "Flying Dragon Guard".
This is Rong Li's last trump card. After handing over, his influence on the situation in the court was minimized. As long as the emperor wanted, he could easily kill him.
Feilong Guard belongs to an underground organization and was founded by the original body. It is a sharp knife to spy on the dynamics of all officials and grasp the national situation. He won the final victory with this trump card.
The emperor and his ministers all knew that the Feilong Guard was powerful and was a useful knife in extraordinary times, but it could also become a killer to swing at their life gate at any time.
After Rong Li resigned from office, the ownership of Feilong Guard became the focus of attention of the ministers, which is also the reason why some people still regard Rong Li Shouli.
Unexpectedly, there was no need for the emperor to do anything, Rong Li handed over the jade talisman that could command the Feilong Guard. From now on, the owner of the Feilong Guard will be the emperor.
The emperor looked at the jade talisman and his voice seemed to tremble, "Rongqing, do you really want to leave any way out for yourself?"
"I believe in Your Majesty!" Rong Li chuckled, with no slight pressure on his face, only his usual gentleness.
"You can trust me." The emperor put away the jade talisman, walked forward, hugged Rong Li, and Rong Li gently hugged him, and at this time, silence was better than sound.
Walking out of the hall, Rong Li touched the medicine bottle in his arms. This was the health pill that the emperor gave him with the expression "Praise me quickly" before he handed over the jade talisman.
In order to save his life, the emperor began to prepare a long time ago, and ordered people to search everywhere for precious medicinal materials at all costs, so that the Imperial Hospital could make it all.
Even if it can only be extended for one year, one month, or even one day.
Rong Li's entry into the palace this time was a sudden move, which means that the emperor could not have expected his purpose, but he still handed him the health pills from the beginning, which shows that the emperor's intentions are sincere and without any falsehood.
