At this moment, His Majesty's people finally stopped talking.
They looked at the emperor, at the domineering look on his stern face, and couldn't say a word.
There was a courtier who knelt down slowly.
"Long live my emperor."
As soon as the people around saw him bowing down, more and more people followed him and knelt down on the ground, bowing to Zhu Feng: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
In the end, after everyone knelt down to the ground, Wu Yingqiu and the others finally had no choice but to kneel down.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
At this time, someone in the crowd got up again, then knelt down on the ground again, and said loudly: "I pay my respects to the imperial concubine."
Someone took the lead, and immediately, all the civil and military officials around knelt down again and said in unison: "I wait to pay my respects to the imperial concubine!"
"I will pay my respects to the imperial concubine and empress."
"Meet the imperial concubine and empress!" The voice shook the sky.
Hearing the voices of these people shouting long live, Nan Yan looked down slightly tremblingly, at the civil and military officials kneeling at her feet, and at the gazes of those people looking up at her.
It was also the first time that I understood the feeling of being high above the ground and the ground below my feet.
Oh I see.
In an instant, she suddenly understood why, from ancient times to the present, so many people want to get that position, want to get more power, it turns out that this is the feeling of being superior.
It's like standing on a cloud.
But immediately, she took a deep breath to calm herself down.
No matter how lofty she is, she can never forget that she is not fully worthy of such a position now. It is because of Zhu Feng and his persistence that she has come to his side.
This was the first time she stood by his side,
And in the future—
Every step, she had to rely on herself to walk forward side by side with him!
She slowly turned her head to look at Zhu Feng, and at this moment, he was also looking at her, and the eyes of the two met. At this moment, it seemed that their hearts were connected.
Nan Yan smiled lightly at him.
And Zhu Feng clenched his hand even more.
At this time, the master of ceremonies finally took a step forward and said loudly: "The canonization ceremony is over, the imperial concubine returns to the palace!"
Immediately, Ran Xiaoyu and the other maids came up and surrounded Nanyan back to the palace.
But her steps faltered, because she saw Zhu Feng take a step forward, walked up to the steps, and looked at the officials below.
He said, "Master."
Upon hearing his voice, Wu Yingqiu, who was kneeling below, frowned.
Although it seemed that they had gained nothing and lost nothing, Nan Yan could clearly feel the decline of Duke Cheng Wu Yingqiu's "the general situation is over" at this moment.
The people around didn't even dare to hum.
Zhu Feng looked down at him, was silent for a long time, and said lightly, "Don't be afraid, Duke, I don't mean to blame Duke."
"..."
"The things the Duke said to me just now are also for the court and the world, aren't they?"
Wu Yingqiu hurriedly said, "Yes, yes."
"..."
"The old minister served the Emperor Gao in the past, and now he serves the Emperor. He does not want to be famous in history, but only wishes for the world to be peaceful and the sea to be clean."
"What a peaceful world, Haiyan Heqing."
"..."
"Of course I understand the duke's intentions. It's just that the duke's wishes should be used in the front court instead of managing my harem."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yingqiu's expression also changed.
Those things just now, those words they said just now, can be said to protect the ancestors and establish the law, and safeguard the will of Emperor Gao, but if the Emperor wants to, what they do will become a matter of meddling in the harem.
Although everyone knows that the front and back palaces are closely connected, no one dares to disclose this secret.
But just now—
At this moment, Wu Yingqiu was a little speechless.
Zhu Feng looked at him, knowing that this time, he didn't dare to speak again, and slowly straightened up, looking straight ahead, without looking at anyone, and said: "Just now, who sent that letter, and The content of the letter was sent here."
"..."
For a while, the entire Fengtian Temple was silent.
Only the wind remained, blowing through the treetops.
The rustling sound made people feel even more oppressive, and some people were even about to lose their footing.
Zhu Feng raised his voice: "Who!?"
With a plop, someone next to him knelt on the ground.
Nan Yan turned her head and saw that it was none other than her sister—Si Mulan.
Her face was pale, she knelt on the ground and shivered, and she seemed to have lost her soul.
And standing beside her was Concubine Kang, Wu Wan, and Gao Yurong.
The faces of the two of them were no better than Simu Lan's, and they were even paler, especially when Zhu Feng was talking to Wu Yingqiu just now, Wu Wan's throat was already so frightened.
No one could tell that just now, she was still showing off her power like that.
Zhu Feng turned around and walked slowly in front of them.
He said: "Are you the sister of my noble concubine?"
"Yes Yes… "
Simu Lan was so trembling that she couldn't even speak.
Zhu Feng slowly raised his head again and looked at Wu Wan: "The one she came looking for was you?"
This time, Wu Wan couldn't hold it any longer, and knelt down tremblingly: "Your Majesty..."
Zhu Feng looked at them calmly for a while.
"Queen."
Upon hearing Zhu Feng's voice, Xu Miaoyin immediately stepped forward, "I'm here."
Zhu Feng said: "You are the queen of a country, and your mother respects the world. I will leave this matter to you."
"..."
"Don't let me down."
Xu Miaoyin said respectfully: "Yes."
Hearing these words, Cheng Guogong, who was kneeling below, turned pale, but he didn't dare to say a word.
Just now, Zhu Feng's words have already warned him that no matter what happens in the harem, the previous dynasty must not have any influence!
Finally, Zhu Feng turned his head to look at Nanyan.
That stern face was carved like ten thousand years of ice, and there was a sharp coldness in the beauty, which made people afraid to get close.
But at this moment, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Nan Yan's finger.
Immediately felt that his palm was hot as fire.
There was also a hint of imperceptible tenderness in those eyes, and she whispered to her: "Now, go back to the palace and have a good rest, I still have some things to deal with today."
"..."
Nan Yan looked at him, was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Yes."
She knew that if it was a normal canonization, after the canonization was completed, he and the queen should accept their bows, and then everything would be over, but today's canonization, of course, is not the case at all.
Although now, she is already his concubine.
However, there are still many things to deal with next.
Because he has already announced that he will implement a new deal, so the affairs of the previous dynasty are much more important than getting together in the harem.
Seeing him turn around to go to the imperial study, Nan Yan said softly again: "The emperor... I am waiting for you."
