She Jingshan was very troubled. He encountered unprecedented resistance. When he expressed Xi Ruoxuan's opinions in the court, the ministers objected fiercely, and the most powerful one was Prime Minister Ge Long. Ge Long elaborated on the disadvantages of the unification of the two countries. He said, Your Majesty, you have fallen into Xi Ruoxuan's beauty trap. If she really thinks about the people of Li, then why doesn't she become the emperor's queen, so that the two countries can be merged.
She Jingshan felt that what Ge Long said made sense, but she would definitely not agree to letting Xi Ruoxuan be her queen. If she didn’t agree, she and I would not be able to be together, and my dream of staying with her forever would be gone. It became a bubble. How to do it? She Jingshan thought of running away. Since you all oppose the unification of the two countries, I don’t want this country anymore. Xi Ruoxuan once said that if I can't convince the minister, she can still accept me if I am empty-handed.
She Jingshan prepared to attend the last morning court and then left the palace in disguise.
With the support of the eunuch, She Jingshan sat on the emperor's throne, and the civil and military ministers stood on both sides after performing the royal ceremony. She Jingshan said: "My dear friends, do you have anything to say? If not, then leave the court!" She Jingshan was too lazy to argue with the ministers today, because after a day of debate yesterday, my voice was hoarse and I still couldn't be convinced. I won’t talk about these old antiques today.
As soon as Jingshan finished speaking, Ge Long came out of the class to play: "Your Majesty, I have my original intention to play."
She Jingshan nodded: "If you have any questions, please tell me. I'm a little tired today and want to leave the court early."
Ge Long said: "I would like to discuss with the emperor the matter of the reunification of the two countries."
She Jingshan waved his hand: "Stop talking. I know your point of view. Don't you agree? I'm not forcing you. Let's talk about this later!"
Ge Long cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. What I mean is that the unity of the two countries actually has certain benefits."
She Jingshan was stunned, as if he didn't understand: "What did you say? Say it again."
Ge Long continued: "What I said yesterday was actually a bit extreme. I thought about it carefully last night and felt that what the emperor said still makes sense."
She Jingshan was overjoyed: "Keep talking, keep talking."
Ge Long said: "In fact, the union of the two countries will be of great benefit to the common people. The only thing I worry about is that once the two countries unite, the emperor will lose his current status. When I think of it, The emperor has made such a big sacrifice for the sake of the people and the common people, I am really grateful!"
She Jingshan finally understood. He had agreed to this for real: "So you agreed?"
"The old minister was moved by the emperor and had to agree!"
"Okay! What about the other ministers? General Zhou, what do you think?"
Zhou Yan clasped his fists: "General, I think what Prime Minister Ge said is very reasonable. The unity of the two countries will not only benefit the people, but also make our country stronger and make the four parties surrender!"
She Jingshan stood up so excitedly: "It's great, I can be a royal concubine!"
The ministers didn't dare to laugh even if they wanted to. What kind of emperor is this? It's inappropriate for him to show his dignity, but he goes to be someone else's concubine and is still so happy. They wanted to object, but the prime minister and the general agreed, so we had to go with the flow.
Then why did Ge Long's attitude make a 180-degree turn? It wasn't because Xi Ruoxuan got his thinking straight. Xi Ruoxuan promised that as long as he promoted the unification of the two countries, Ge Long would become the leftist The prime minister is in charge of all officials. This is a first-class official who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. The temptation cannot be said to be small. This Ge Long could not withstand the temptation and was finally pulled into the water by Xi Ruoxuan.
After Xiruoxuan finished his work, he and Murong Xiaotian had already returned to Yanjing. A few days later, She Jingshan came to Yanjing with all the civil and military officials. Xi Ruoxuan had known that he was coming, so he smiled and said to Murong Xiaotian next to him: "My other beloved concubine is here, you said let her What kind of concubine should I be?"
Murong Xiaotian thought for a while: "My concubine is Concubine Rong, and Su Shaokai is Concubine Su. His name is She Jingshan, so let's call him Concubine She!"
Xi Ruoxuan laughed loudly: "Okay! You follow me to pick up my concubine She!"
The court of Yunyan Kingdom was bustling with activity, and She Jingshan led his ministers into the Golden Palace. His Majesty Xi Ruoxuan came to hold She Jingshan's hand and said, "I really didn't expect that you would become my concubine, so I will designate you as Concubine She in front of civil and military officials."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" She Jingshan also put himself in the position of a minister at this time.
Xi Ruoxuan held Murong Xiaotian with his left hand and She Jingshan with his right hand and slowly walked up to the throne. All the ministers knelt down, and Xiruoxuan began to award rewards. She immediately fulfilled her promise and made Ge Long the prime minister of the left, and Director Yao became the prime minister of the right. Zhou Yan was granted the title of Grand Marshal of the Army and commanded the troops of the two countries.
When the news reached Dayou, Kuang Langyu was shocked. He didn't understand why Xi Ruoxuan had such great charm and even made She Jingshan her concubine. What was even more outrageous was that the entire Yuli Kingdom was included in the territory of Yunyan Kingdom. Kuang Langyu was in pain. He didn't know how to face Xi Ruoxuan. He even hated Xi Ruoxuan a little. How could a woman take a concubine? What was this other than a frivolous act
Kuang Langyu fell into an emotional crisis. On the one hand, he missed Xi Ruoxuan very much, but on the other hand, he had opinions on Xi Ruoxuan's actions. The conflicting mood would make people do incredible things. Kuang Langyu, who had never been good at drinking, actually started to drink heavily. He would get drunk all day long. After drinking, he would become drunk and go crazy. Sometimes he would take it out on the young eunuch. The eunuchs stayed away from him and tried not to get close to him.
Nao Langyu was crying and fussing, and sometimes he even slapped the table and shouted: "Ruixuan, why are you doing this, why?"
The emperor's strange behavior naturally made the ministers uneasy, and they all came to see the great Situ Ximen Dehao. Ximen Dehao has long been dissatisfied with Kuang Langyu. He originally did not support him as emperor, but now he wants to include the entire Dayou into Yunyan's territory. This is intolerable in any case.
"Everyone, I think something is really wrong with our emperor. When the late emperor passed the throne to him, I didn't approve of it. However, the late emperor insisted on going his own way and that led to today's ending."
The ministers nodded frequently: "Master Situ, what do you think we should do?"
Ximen Dehao sighed: "What else can I do? I can only persuade the emperor and hope that he will give up those unrealistic ideas."
"But what if the emperor doesn't listen?" asked a minister.
Ximen Dehao pondered for a long time: "Then it depends on whether you adults have the courage."
"Master Ximen means-"
Ximen Dehao said harshly: "If the emperor insists on merging Dayou into Yunyan, we will let Empress Dowager Zhang make the decision, force him to abdicate, and then support Prince Liling to ascend the throne!"
As soon as these words came out, the ministers were silent for a full quarter of an hour. Forcing the emperor to abdicate is not a trivial matter. If you don't make a mistake, you will be punished by the nine tribes. Seeing that everyone was silent, Ximen Dehao said: "What's wrong with you? Don't you dare? I can tell you that if we merge with Yunyan, your official positions will definitely plummet. If you don't believe it, just wait and see!"
A minister said cruelly: "Okay! We will listen to your Majesty."
That's how people are, as long as someone takes the lead, there will be people who follow. So everyone was excited again: "Okay! We will listen to the adults."
"Okay! Since everyone has the same opinion, let me go to the emperor with you!"
"Let's go! Find the emperor!" The ministers swarmed towards the palace.
