"What?" Ye Wuji thought he heard wrongly.
"I said, I am ready to make you." Xie Hanyi smiled and repeated, "My Emperor."
"Are you kidding me? I have nothing to do with the royal family!" Ye Wuji threw the chess pieces in his hand at Qipan Mountain, disrupting a chess game that was destined to lose.
"I'm not joking." Xie Hanyi said, "Your biological father is the late emperor, and your biological mother is Alanna, the former saint of Guhui Sect."
Xie Hanyi told Ye Wuji's life story in an understated tone, as if he was just talking about what he should eat for breakfast today.
"Have you always known?" Ye Wuji felt a chill. Is this the real reason why Xie Hanyi adopted her? Every one of his apprentices is his pawn, and she is no exception. She once thought she was an exception, but now it seems she is not.
"It wasn't at the beginning." Xie Hanyi held her on his lap and stroked her long hair like a cat, "I didn't adopt you just to take advantage of you, and I have no regard for your feelings. There is no hypocrisy, isn’t the symbiotic contract between us enough to prove it?”
Ye Wuji's heart suddenly surged with an indescribable strong emotion. This emotion did not belong to her, but it powerfully occupied her heart, prompting her to wrap her arms around Xie Hanyi's neck and take the initiative to bring her lips to hers.
At the court meeting, officials from King Pingnan's faction stood up and stated impassionedly the major crimes committed today. They expressed in their words that Xie Hanyi was the best candidate for the emperor. This is unimaginable under normal circumstances. A minister is blaming the emperor, but everyone knows that the real person in power now is Xie Hanyi. Some people believe that this censor was ordered by Xie Hanyi.
The little emperor sitting on the dragon throne was too young to understand what these people were saying. He cast his helpless eyes on his uncle Cheng Enbo.
Uncle Cheng En's face turned red with anger, and he jumped out and accused: "I have always been a king, a king, a father, a father, and a son. How can anyone criticize the king in the court? You are treasonous!"
"Mencius said that if the ruler makes serious mistakes, he will remonstrate with them. If he repeatedly refuses to listen, he will change his position. Now that the ruler has made serious mistakes and the ministers do not remonstrate, that would be true disloyalty!"
When it comes to words, how could Cheng Enbo, a reckless man who relied on nepotism to rise to power, be compared to the censor who relied on his words to make a living.
Just when the ministers were quarreling with each other, Xie Hanyi Shi Shiran came out and said: "I have something to report."
The little emperor felt as if he had received an amnesty and said quickly: "My dear, please tell me."
"The late emperor had a daughter who had been living among the people for many years. Now that she has been found, she should be sacrificed to the ancestors of the ancestral temple."
All the ministers were shocked by his unreasonable words. Aren't they discussing who should be the emperor? Why are you suddenly involved in the late emperor's bead? If it is a prince, it can be said. If it is a princess, even if it is true, what kind of lies can it be
wrong! It seems that a few princesses actually became emperors in the previous dynasty! But that was all when the previous emperor had no sons, but the previous emperor had several sons who were still alive!
"This princess was born to the late emperor and the Miao saint Alanna. She lived among the people for many years because of the persecution of the late Concubine Li."
"Master Xie, who is the princess you are talking about?"
"It's my young disciple Ye Wuji."
The ministers suddenly realized, no wonder! It turns out that he is Xie Hanyi's apprentice. Who can be more at ease as the emperor than his own apprentice? What's more, this apprentice is said to have some ulterior relationship with him.
Some people still expressed different opinions.
Veteran minister Fei Zhong disapproved and said: "The remnants of the alien race, even the princess, should not return to the clan, let alone have other evil thoughts!"
Xie Hanyi smiled and said: "This is wrong. It is precisely because the Saint of Miao Territory shares the same blood with the late emperor that we should recognize her. Although Miao Territory is our Daqi territory, there should be a gap between the Miao people and our Qi people. There are many conflicts, so there are always troubles in southern Xinjiang. If this woman becomes the emperor, wouldn't it be more conducive to the unification of our country?"
"Master Xie is right!"
"Master Fei, don't be too stubborn!"
The court hall had already gone through Xie Hanyi's bloody cleansing, and it was rare to hear different voices, which were basically Xie Hanyi's words. There were a few people who had different opinions, but Xie Hanyi deliberately stayed behind. He only occupied a few false positions and could not influence anything at all.
Ye Wuji successfully reentered the royal family tree. During this period, she did not even show up once.
