The banquet could not be held, so everyone spent a long time in the palace before going back to their homes.
When Meng Li returned to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, it was already late at night.
Meng Li asked for sick leave on the second day, saying that he was ill in the mansion.
Then secretly spread rumors.
Talk about the punishment the emperor received from God last night.
Meng Li was just the beginning, but everyone spread the news more and more, saying that it was not allowed by heaven for the emperor to entertain foreign envoys.
We should not turn hostility into friendship.
Some said that the foreign envoys had witchcraft and wanted to murder the emperor.
Others say that the emperor asked the imperial advisor to dance, and the imperial advisor was an envoy from heaven. The emperor's move drew accountability from heaven.
Anyway, all kinds of rumors are spreading, especially news about the royal family, which is particularly interesting.
Meng Li claimed to be ill at home and asked the emperor to ask the imperial master to dance, which led to God's accountability. This rumor became more true.
This seems to be confirmed from the side.
The emperor did not go to court. He was injured at the banquet. The area around his eyes was extremely swollen and the pain was unbearable. The imperial doctor used a lot of medicine but it was not cured.
He was so angry that he pointed at the imperial doctor and yelled.
Then he heard Jia Zhengchu talking about the rumors outside, and the emperor felt worried.
Is this really the case
He cherished his life the most, and immediately kicked out Tiwu and other envoys from his relatives. Gold, silver, and beautiful women were not as important as his own life.
What if you really know magic
Tiwu and others were confused and resentful, so they rushed off as soon as they could.
As for the Imperial Master, is it really that serious
It's just a dance, God will hold him accountable. As the emperor, God has never seen such protection for him.
Angry.
The emperor touched the swollen area and cried out.
With his eyes swollen like this, he has no intention of having fun, and he can't see the beauties in the harem for the time being.
This kind of life is so boring.
Meng Li claimed to be ill, but many people still came to visit her at the Imperial Prefect's Mansion. They probably knew that Meng Li was not really ill, but now he must be angry about what happened at that time and did not want to see the emperor.
Prime Minister Right came first.
Gu Yi has a good relationship with Prime Minister You. When he heard that Prime Minister You was coming, he also went out to talk to him.
Gu Yi didn't know what happened at the palace banquet. When the right prime minister told Gu Yi what happened, Gu Yi turned red with anger.
The emperor is so ridiculous.
It is a great misfortune to meet such an emperor.
Meng Li quickly comforted Gu Yi, smoothed Gu Yi's hair, and poured some spiritual energy into it. Considering that Gu Yi was not in good health, Meng Li asked someone to take Gu Yi back to rest.
Prime Minister You just came to persuade Meng Li.
Anyway, the general meaning is, don't be angry with the emperor anymore.
No matter how wrong the emperor is, what can he do as a minister
There is no benefit in being angry with the emperor, so let Meng Li think a little more openly.
How can we live without worries in the secular world? Everyone will have troubles of one kind or another.
Meng Li said he knew.
Knowing that Prime Minister You is also kind-hearted.
In fact, Prime Minister You also felt that the emperor had gone too far. The strange things that happened to the demon king in his house before made him believe in the theory of ghosts and gods.
The emperor was not injured anywhere, but his eyes were injured.
I was afraid that the emperor was lustful and wanted to watch the imperial master dance, so his eyes were injured and he couldn't see.
However, Prime Minister Right just guessed these words in his mind and did not dare to say them out.
Concubine Shou and Prince An were talking together at the moment.
Concubine Shou asked about the details of the banquet, and King An came up with them one by one.
This made her feel particularly surprised.
King An told Concubine Shou to respect heaven and earth and not to attract accountability from heaven like the emperor did.
He also said that he could not say a word for the Imperial Master at the banquet, and his expression was very helpless.
Concubine Shou repeatedly said that she knew.
He looked at his son with distress, thinking that his son was also the child of the late emperor, but he had to bow his head to others, grovel, and even dared not complain even after being scolded by the emperor.
Why is it that his son is not the emperor
Since the emperor has suffered dissatisfaction from heaven, he should stop doing it.
Moreover, the emperor was extravagant and lewd, and the harem could no longer contain all those beauties.
She remembered that Meng Li told her that King An was surrounded by purple energy, and her heart was ready to move these days.
Some thoughts come together and I can't suppress them no matter what.
I tossed and turned at night, thinking about all these things.
So I told Prince An about this matter more tactfully and cautiously.
She has endured it all her life, and she has been oppressed by the Queen Mother for a lifetime. It is okay that the Queen Mother has oppressed her for a lifetime, but the key point is that the son she gave birth to will oppress her own son for a lifetime.
The more Concubine Shou thought about it, the worse she got.
And before that, King An was scolded in the court, and she was ridiculed by the Queen Mother for giving birth to a useless son.
If the emperor were his own son...
Concubine Shou's heartbeat accelerated, and her head even felt dizzy for a moment.
if…
If imagination becomes reality, many things will become different.
King An was stunned after hearing this.
Immediately she realized that she was a little doubtful, so the concubine moved out of Mengli to comfort King An, saying that if she didn't believe her, she should also believe in the imperial master.
The National Master's golden words must be well-founded.
King An shook his head firmly. He did not want to rebel. He understood what his mother meant, that she wanted him to be the emperor.
I didn't expect that my mother, who is usually cautious in her words and deeds, would have such a bold idea.
Who gave her the courage
Concubine Shou told King An that, from a small perspective, it was because she did not want to be scolded bloody by the emperor in front of all the civil and military officials, and she did not want King An to be laughed at by everyone in the world.
From a general perspective, the current riots in various places are ultimately caused by the emperor's forced expropriation. There are many people in the world who are dissatisfied with the emperor.
They all look forward to replacing that chair with a human seat.
No matter what we do, it is for the sake of the common people in the world.
Regardless of the previous dynasty or the ancestors, this kind of thing has happened, why can't we do it.
As long as you ascend to that position, a hundred years later, future generations will enshrine your tablet.
His own son also has the surname Qi, and is also the son of the late emperor. Even in that position, the lord of the world still has the surname Qi, and his ancestors will not blame him.
King An listened to Concubine Shou's long speech in a very low voice that only he could hear.
The scenes that I encountered when I went out to recruit people came to mind.
Sighing, Ben's firm heart could not help but waver. Can he really save Da Qi's country
Can it really save people from dire straits
If you can, it doesn't matter if you become a sinner.
But this slight mistake could lead to a disaster. King An was extremely hesitant and told Concubine Shou to stop talking.
He wanted to think about it for himself.
In fact, there is another thing in King An's mind that makes him hesitate, because this big relative is in a mess now. Even if he takes over, if he can't clean it up well, he will be finished.
But thinking about it, if the world is not in chaos, I will definitely have no chance to take over.
King An's inner emotional activities are very complicated.
