As soon as Hua Yan said this, the hall could hear the needle drop even more quietly.

Xiao Zhongzi brought stacks of memorials to the hall with the servants of the East Palace, and distributed them to the courtiers.

The courtiers received their own memorials one after another, and seeing the comments on it, they were not only shocked, but extremely shocked.

This is the memorial reviewed by the princess

This handwriting, this style of writing, and the content of this review, not only accurately controlled the court situation in Southern Chu, but also clearly grasped the inextricable relationships and hidden thoughts of the courtiers.

In the thin memorial, through the lines of the review, they saw the upper sword hanging high on the mirror.

Who dare not be convinced

Since ancient times, a memorial has hidden inside and out, both open and secret, and if you are not well versed in this way, you must not understand it.

Even An Zaifu, when His Royal Highness was away from Beijing, when His Royal Highness first supervised the country, there were occasional omissions in the memorials reviewed by His Highness. depth.

But for the memorial reviewed by the Crown Princess, when each minister received his own copy of the memorial reviewed and returned, they all saw disbelief and turmoil in each other's eyes.

"Give me a few copies to read." The emperor has been in power for twenty years, and he can guess the thoughts of the courtiers from the emotions on their faces. He also wants to read the memorials reviewed by Huayan.

Xiao Zhongzi immediately took a few memorials, which were the ones that Huayan explained to the Fifth Prince yesterday.

After reading the memorials one by one, the emperor put his heart into his stomach. For the first time, he felt admiration for this daughter-in-law from the inside out.

Accompanied by the emperor's extremely happy applause, the courtiers also woke up and kowtowed in unison, "The princess is a thousand years old."

These words represent recognition and conviction.

Such a concubine couldn't help them being dissatisfied. She was able to review such a memorial, she had the ability to govern the country, and she had the ability to turn clouds and rain. Those who dissatisfied could be expected to end badly.

Southern Chu has gone through four hundred years, and it is no longer the Southern Chu of the past. His Royal Highness the crown prince can promote Zhao Qingxi to the court, and the emperor can issue an imperial decree to let the crown prince and concubine assist the five princes to supervise the country. They don't know the future fate of Southern Chu, but they do know, Don't look at His Highness the Crown Prince himself, just look at his vision of choosing concubines, just look at the Crown Princess sitting in the Golden Luan Hall, Nanchu will not collapse.

This early court went very smoothly, no one stood up against Huayan's supervision of the country, and no one raised any objections to Huayan's review of the memorial to act according to the rules.

After the morning court, the emperor said to Hua Yan, "Yan girl, you will come out of the palace later, I will talk to you."

Huayan smiled and nodded.

The two left the Golden Luan Hall one after another, and the emperor was very happy, "Yan girl, tell me, when will the crown prince calm down the chaos, when will he return?"

Huayan smiled and shook her head, "Return to father, I can't say for sure."

"Well, you are very experienced in reviewing memorials. In my opinion, the crown prince has supervised the country for a few years, and he can only do what you do. You are not humble in front of courtiers. Why do you speculate when you are humble in front of me? Let me listen .” The emperor looked at her with his hands behind his back.

Huayan smiled helplessly, "Su Zizhe is very powerful. He is a very ruthless character. As long as he achieves his goal, he doesn't stick to any means. He doesn't love the people, it can be said that he doesn't love himself, and he doesn't have a heart of kindness. He can ignore it. Going all out, ruining the country, flying ashes everywhere, he might not even blink his eyes. But Yun Chi is different, he loves the people, has great righteousness in his heart, for the Southern Chu community, for the people of all living beings. He has been restrained too much, a little dark If the method endangers the people, he will definitely not use it. How long this battle will last is really hard to say."

The emperor nodded when he heard the words, and sighed, "Yes, I taught the prince to be too kind and caring for the people. If he didn't teach him the way of emperor, he would have been successful for a long time. To control the world, the first thing to step on is blood Bones. Whether it belongs to the common people or to the rebels."

Huayan shook her head, "Father, Yun Chi is very good. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. If he didn't love the people and win the hearts of the people, he wouldn't be respected by the people all over the world. At the very least, the investigation of the world's major families would also bring Wealthy merchants and wealthy households spontaneously donated food and grass to the court, making the treasury ample now. At the very least, they are not afraid of the lack of food and grass supply affecting peace and war. This is not something that any prince can do. Father should be proud of teaching such a prince .”

The emperor nodded, feeling relieved by Huayan's words, "You are right, I am narrow-minded. As an emperor, how can he not be kind to his people?"

Hua Yan smiled, the emperor is an excellent emperor, in the future, even if he does not have a thousand years of meritorious service, he is bound to be appreciated by future generations for knowing how to use people well, regardless of power, and being generous.

"The child is healthy." The emperor changed the subject, looked at Huayan's protruding belly, and remembered that when the palace banquet was held, it was not obvious at that time, but now it is so big.

"I'm healthy, Father, don't worry." Hua Yan smiled, "Heaven will never stop asking me for a peace pulse every other day."

"How long will it take to be born?" the emperor was relieved and asked again.

"Three and a half months."

The emperor nodded, "Two months, can Xiao Wu get started?"

"Xiao Wu is smart, it should be about the same." Hua Yan smiled, "He stayed up all night holding the memorial I reviewed yesterday, and he put his heart into it."

The emperor sighed, "Girl Yan, tell me, is my thinking wrong? Since I selected the prince since I was young, I have devoted myself to teaching the prince, and I have freed the other princes. What I am afraid of is that in the future, brothers will fight against each other and fight against each other. But I never thought about it. Now that they have grown up, the situation in the Southern Chu Dynasty is like this, except for Xiao Wu who is still available, the rest of my sons really can't help him."

Huayan thought about it seriously, and said, "I can't say that you are wrong, Father. Since ancient times, there have been many brothers fighting against each other. You are right to prevent problems before they happen. Everything has two sides, and there are advantages and disadvantages."

"Forget it, don't talk about it. It's useless to talk more." The emperor ordered, "I'm not too useless. If you are too tired, you must rest. At this time, you must know that nothing is as important as the child in your womb. .”

"Father, don't worry." Hua Yan nodded.

The two of them said some other words, they talked about the current situation of the war in Lingnan, where An Shuli and Mei Shuyu were now, and mentioned that Marquis Wuwei, who was imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple, had been locked up. It's been a month, and a person like Marquis Wuwei should have lasted until the time. After that, Huayan left the palace.

Huayan felt that it was time for her to go to the prison, and she wanted to see what the Marquis of Wuwei looked like today.

The state of mind can still be so calm

After checking the major families in the world, a group of people who she and An Shuli considered to be Marquis of Wuwei have been cleared out. Now that the government and the public are in charge, there must be some people who are deeply hidden, and it is time to clear them up.

"Go to the sky prison of Dali Temple." After Huayan left the palace, she gave orders to Xiao Zhongzi.

Xiao Zhongzi looked at Huayan and asked, "Crown Princess, the weather is so hot, if you are wearing this dress of the Princess Concubine, you might as well go back to the palace and change into some light clothes before going."

"Didn't Nanny bring light clothes for me?" Hua Yan turned her head and glanced at Nanny Fang, "Just change it in the car."

Nanny Fang took a step forward and nodded, "Yes, the old slave has brought it with me, and I can change it in the car, so you won't have to worry about it."

Xiao Zhongzi stopped talking.

After getting into the carriage, Nanny Fang took out Huayan's usual light dress, Huayan took off the fine dress, squeezed her shoulders, and let out a sigh of relief, "This dress is really heavy, I have to tell Yun Chi later, Shouldn't the princess's dress be changed to the old one, to make it lighter, it's too heavy."

Nanny Fang pinched Huayan's shoulders, and said with a smile, "As long as you say it, His Highness will definitely agree. Wear it according to the occasion today, and don't wear it tomorrow."

"Don't wear it anymore. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to restrain the courtiers today?" Huayan wiped off her sweat, put on light clothes, and immediately felt relaxed.

When I came to Dali Temple, the minister of Dali Temple got the news long ago, and cooperated with the officials of Dali Temple to welcome him out.

Huayan smiled and waved her hands, "My lords are welcome, I'm here to see Lord Hou, and Lord Hou has been moved to Dali Temple, you will be fine."

"Well." Dali Siqing understood the moment he saw Hua Yan. The net that the Crown Princess has cast for more than a month is about to be collected. He said respectfully, "I will take you there. God The prison is so filthy, I don’t know if you can live there, or else I will order someone to clean it first, or bring Lord Hou out to see you.”

"No need." Huayan shook her head, "My lord will lead the way."

The Minister of Dali Temple saw that the Crown Princess was not such a delicate person, not to mention that he had just met him this morning, her majesty and majesty was not inferior to His Royal Highness, so without further words, he led Huayan to the prison of Dali Temple.

After entering the Heaven Prison, he came all the way to the innermost cell, the dirtiest and most dilapidated, where Marquis Wuwei sat leaning against the wall, with his eyes closed, unshaven, filthy, musty, damp, and rotten. Yan took out his handkerchief and covered his mouth, thinking that he is worthy of Marquis Wuwei, he has stayed in such a place for more than a month, and he is still not crazy.

Huayan couldn't help thinking, did he want to live or die
