Chapter 593.1: The Empress Governs the Country II

The Empress Governs the Country II (1)

Li Hong Yuan saying he was ‘recuperating’, then that was absolutely ‘quietly recuperating’. No matter which court official came to request an audience, that was all just two words: ‘Not meeting.’ ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoᴠelFɪre.net

And as the number one lackey, Eunuch Mu was also quite considerate——–“Please be mindful of his Majesty’s body. His Majesty’s health concerns the entirety of Qi Yuan. If the dragon body is unwell, then naturally need to properly recuperate. As for the governmental affairs, will just have to trouble the ministers to look after more.” His attitude was quite good, absolutely not having the arrogance and rudeness from becoming the chief eunuch.

But the more it was like this, the more it made one suffocate inside. Some things, without his Majesty, even if they work themselves to death, it’ll still be useless.

It’s been three days, already three days! Even though they knew where the crux of the problem lie, but really need them to personally go invite the empress to get involved in politics?

“His Majesty’s body is lacking, and the crown prince at present is still in swaddling clothes. As such, letting her Highness assist his Majesty in handling governmental affairs is also proper.”

In any case, they can’t change his Majesty’s mind, and his Majesty also didn’t use forceful methods, so they should be content with their situation. That’s why, whether it’d be an excuse or a reason, it’s best to quickly find one. Once the ladder is put up, climbing down from the stage, then there won’t be anymore problems. Don’t make it where one ends up covered in dirt, even holding up major matters.

However, really sorry, his Majesty still doesn’t have any intention of meeting with them. Encountering such a ‘willful and rash’ ruler, each and every one’s hair was all about to turn white from worry. Not for the people of the world, not for the state of the country, but just because their ruler was upset, ‘in a fit’ with them. Just thinking about it made them feel their lifespan shortening.

Afterwards, another two days passed. With no other choice, everyone had Luo Pei Shan pushed out, letting him go request a meeting with the empress. The excuse was also since his Majesty’s body is lacking, then invite her Highness to come take charge of the situation. Giving this much face, his Majesty should be able to ‘quell his anger’, right?

Luo Pei Shan, as Jing Wan’s grandfather, naturally was still different from the others. Jing Wan met with him first thing.

Between the grandfather and granddaughter pair, there wasn’t that solemn of an atmosphere, and that excuse for seeing Jing Wan also wasn’t brought out, wanting to take it slowly.

Speaking of which, Li Hong Yuan very much had the stance of going against the officials to the end. Jing Wan was also worried that he will really go overboard, letting matters go out of hand. Jing Wan also didn’t dare to guarantee that if he really were to act ‘willful’, he will think of propriety and will consider the bigger picture.

Even though his goal was mostly for her sake, Jing Wan was still very helpless, “I’d also urged his Majesty, but it’s not like he will listen to me every time.”

Downing half a cup of tea, Luo Pei Shan responded with a smile, “This subject respectfully ask your Highness to take charge of the present state of affairs.”

Jing Wan lifted her eyes and looked towards Luo Pei Shan, “Grandfather seemingly isn’t that surprised.”

“Your Highness has noble aspirations, so why strictly adhere to the gender differences.” For many things, Luo Pei Shan all took to heart. He has never been that kind of pedantic person.

Jing Wan helplessly smiled, “If outsiders were to hear grandfather’s words, they’ll denounce you altogether.”

“So what.” Luo Pei Shan very unconcernedly said.

TN: All

The grandfather and granddaughter pair idly chatted for a quarter of an hour before Jing Wan finally let someone send Luo Pei Shan out.

Afterwards, Jing Wan went to see Li Hong Yuan, “It’s already like this now, so tomorrow, just go back to handle the governmental affairs.”

“Didn’t they invite you to oversee the state of affairs, so for the governmental affairs, naturally it will be you going to handle.” Li Hong Yuan was half leaning against the recliner, holding a book in one hand, appearing very carefree.

“Ah Yuan, are you joking?” What happened to just assisting? This was completely throwing it to her? He really wants to be an arm-flinging shopkeeper?

“Isn’t this emperor’s body suboptimal? So will be troubling my empress.” Li Hong Yuan was still that idle stance, seemingly as if the book had some particularly interesting content, for a time attracting his attention, not even lifting his eye.

This was really planning on going all the way?! Where’s your dignity as the heavenly son? “In your dreams! Seeing that I’m idle, you feel unbalanced inside, and now that you’ve thrown everything to me, you think I will feel balanced inside? Li Hong Yuan, let me tell you, since you’ve become the master of the world, then you just can’t ignore your duties as a ruler, and can’t view it as child’s play.”

Li Hong Yuan finally shifted his gaze from the book, quietly staring at Jing Wan. A moment later, “Just this breadth of mind of yours, Wan Wan is more suited to be the emperor than me.”

Even though his tone was plain, it was nevertheless exceedingly sincere.

Jing Wan hurriedly went to cover his mouth. He really dared to say anything. If others were to hear this, they will certainly be frightened to death.

Li Hong Yuan casually had Jing Wan taken into his arms, completely unconcerned. These words, if others were to say, that was just an enormous offense that would make one lose one’s head, even Jing Wan all can’t say it. But, he was still different. If he says it, it was just that, what else can be done. Even if he really has everything thrown to Jing Wan, what can others do about him?

Seeing Jing Wan getting angered to the point where her face all changed color, Li Hong Yuan finally softened, consolingly stroking her nape, “Wan Wan, for the time being, just help this husband for a few days. If there really is something you can’t handle, I certainly won’t just watch with folded arms. For some things, since it was jointly decided by the court officials, then we should grant their request for once, no?”

“If you want to be lazy, just say it directly.” Jing Wan casted a side-eye at him.

“En, this husband just wants to be lazy.” Li Hong Yuan candidly and boldly nodded his head.

Jing Wan once again was angered to the point of speechlessness.

The miserable ones, how was it just the court officials. She was the greatest laborer.

“Ah Yuan, having everything all thrown to me, won’t you heartache?” Jing Wan delicately said while pretending to be pitiful.

“Of course I will heartache, but Wan Wan’s aspirations are lofty, so presumably that bit of hardship isn’t considered anything at all. As a qualifying husband, I naturally need to support you in spreading your wings.” En, under his wings, she can fly however she wants.

“Aren’t you afraid of me actually hollowing out your power?” Being this openminded, was it really good?

“When time comes, you as the ruler, and I as your consort, it’s also doable.” Li Hong Yuan nonchalantly said.

Jing Wan wanted to cover his mouth again. He really didn’t have any misgivings, able to say anything and everything. As an emperor, to be like him, afraid it can be considered having neither predecessors nor successors. “Is that so, then when time comes, I can have you kicked aside, and look for a new……”

Seeing Li Hong Yuan slightly narrow his eyes, even smiling that ambiguously, Jing Wan’s following words got stuck in her throat, unable to spit out, and all the hairs on her body stood on its end.

“Wan Wan can try.” The smile on his lips was ever so perfect, his fingers continuing to caress Jing Wan’s nape, “However, this husband still wants to remind Wan Wan, some things, you can do whatever you want, while some things, don’t even think about it, understand?”

The former such as stealing the throne, and the latter such as leaving him.

The nature of the two were practically heavens apart. Under normal circumstances, mentioning the former already made one horrified, and as for the latter, in a certain sense, it practically wasn’t worth mentioning. However, for Li Hong Yuan, the importance level of these two were completely flipped. What others cared about, he can offer up with both hands, and what others felt wasn’t even worth mentioning, he viewed more importantly than his life.

Seeing Jing Wan completely listless, Li Hong Yuan smiled increasingly bright, kissing the corner of Jing Wan’s mouth, “Be good.”

The next day, the court officials finally received news. The government affairs can be submitted up. Each and every one were already waiting outside the imperial study.

Afterward, what awaited them was the graceful and elegant empress. Some even refused to believe, glancing behind her, very rude, and at the same time, also very stupid.
