The Empress Wants To Be Deposed!

Chapter 39: Compromise Lee Seung-sun found out that he was actually a little afraid of Song Jin...

He called this a bribe? This is clearly a deal.

But as long as he doesn't care about eating cold food and drinking cold drinks, he can think so.

Song Jinning was quite confident about the bunch of food and drink she had just thrown out. Because you know he is a foodie.

After tasting so many delicacies from her Weiyang Palace small kitchen, he didn't believe that he would be unmoved when he heard the names of the desserts and drinks she just said.

Li Chengxuan was really tempted.

But even if he was tempted, he still insisted on not letting go.

This is boring.

Song Jinning thought indignantly, how old is she, and she still has to be taken care of by an outsider?

So Song Jinning became a little angry.

She stopped talking. I took a shrimp dumpling and ate it with my eyes down, with a face of indifference, no longer paying attention to Li Chengxuan.

Li Chengxuan: ...

Li Chengxuan realized that he was actually a little afraid of Song Jinning being angry.

Even when this person is not angry, he can't miss him at all for several days, if he is angry...

So Li Chengxuan took the initiative to compromise and added an occasional before whether he could eat cold food and drink cold drinks.

Zhou Jing standing by and waiting:...

Your Majesty, how can you say no jokes? Feelings don’t count for the empress, right?

As for Song Jinning, she trembled in the face of Li Chengxuan's active compromise.

I always feel that something is wrong.

From the morning Lee Seung-hsun took the initiative to put on her shoes and socks, to Lee Seung-hsun's uncharacteristically controlling that she could not eat cold food or cold drinks, and then to the present compromise...

Song Jinning had a bad premonition spontaneously.

So her hand also shook.

There was only a light pop, and the half of the shrimp dumplings that had not been eaten on the tip of the chopsticks fell on the table.

Then Song Jinning raised her head tremblingly, and asked tremblingly.

"Your Majesty, you put on my shoes and socks this morning? Why?"

This is Song Jinning's temperament. If you have something to do, you don't want to think about it in your heart. It's better to ask questions directly and ask for a clear answer.

Li Chengxuan: ...

I didn't even think that Song Jinning would ask people directly without knowing what euphemism was.

How should he answer this?

Oh, that's because I am tempted by you and don't want you to be cold, so I put on shoes and socks for you.

Just now, I controlled you not to let you eat cold food or drink cold drinks. Actually, it was because I was worried about you and didn't want your body to be cold.

As for my willingness to compromise afterwards, it is even more because I care about you and don't want you to be angry and ignore me.

Does Lee Seung Hyun answer that way? Of course not!

Because this majesty is not generally arrogant, and he takes his face very seriously.

More importantly, he vaguely felt that Song Jinning didn't actually have much place in his heart now...

So how could he express his thoughts to Song Jinning at this moment? He even worried that Song Jinning would see that he had been tempted by her.

So even though he was obviously flustered now, but he put on a more serious look than usual.

"Last night you solved many of my problems, and I wanted to reward you. But thinking that you are a queen, you don’t lack anything. So in the morning I saw you forgot to put on your shoes and socks and step on the ground barefoot. Just put on shoes and socks for you, don't think about it."

As soon as he said this, Zhou Jing almost didn't manage his facial expressions in shock.

What did he hear? I drop a boy, your Majesty has learned to serve others?

But considering that this person is a queen empress, there seems to be nothing to be shocked.

And think about it again, putting on shoes and socks for the empress, such a charming thing, it seems that your Majesty still understands the daily love and fun between men and women.

It's just why your Majesty put this matter on such a high-sounding reason? He is not afraid that the empress will be unhappy if she listens to it?

But actually Song Jinning was very happy after hearing this reason.

It seems that I really thought about it just now.

She just said, Li Chengxuan's peerless true love is Jiang Wanqiu, how could she be tempted by someone who hated her since she was a child?

Even if the mountains have no mausoleums, the rivers are exhausted, the thunderstorms in winter, the rain and snow in summer, and harmony between heaven and earth are impossible!

As soon as I felt relaxed, not only began to have appetite, but even a few smiles appeared in my eyes.

But Li Chengxuan's mood couldn't be relaxed.

Why did Song Jinning look relaxed after hearing his words, and there was a smile in her eyes?

Although her eyes were as bright as thousands of galaxies because of the smile, Li Chengxuan still felt a mess in her heart.

Because he understood that Song Jinning had this reaction because of relief.

Don't worry, he put on her shoes and socks out of a reward for her, not out of sideways, such as his heartbeat...

So as he expected, Song Jinning really doesn't have him at all in his heart now?

So Li Chengxuan felt that the crystal dumplings in his mouth were not fragrant. But the outer wall of the glass cup with frozen lemon tea in his hand is really ice.

Not only was the palm of his hand cold, but even the heart in his chest was also refreshing.

Li Chengxuan drank two sips of mung bean porridge and wiped his hands with the wet silk towel that Zhou Jing handed him. He got up and started to walk.

Although today is not the day of the Great Court, but after yesterday’s rest, I am afraid that the memorials sent by courtiers and various places are now full of book cases, right? So Song Jinning was not surprised at the fact that Li Chengxuan was about to leave now.

It was just that she suddenly remembered something and hurriedly called Li Chengxuan: "Your Majesty."

Li Chengxuan paused, then turned around immediately.

There is still a trace of hope in my heart. Song Jinning suddenly called him, don't you want him to leave so quickly, want him to stay here for a while?

I heard Song Jinning say: "Your Majesty, I forgot to discuss something with you last night. Although I don't think it is necessary for the thrift of the harem, I think there are too many people in the harem, and many people have been in the palace for many years, so Your Majesty, do you think you can release a group of palace servants out of the palace?"

"First, there are fewer people in the palace, and the cost will naturally decrease. Second, the palace has served in the palace for many years, and there are parents and relatives in the family, and they miss each other very much. Letting them out of the palace can be regarded as all their family happiness. What do your Majesty think?"

Song Jinning also saw that there were thirty or forty years old in the palace a few days ago, and even older palace attendants, only to know after asking that the sentence that the gate of the palace is as deep as the sea is not only for concubines, even the palace. The same is true for the servants in China.

So in the past few days, she wondered whether she should set an age limit. Once the palace attendant reaches this set age, she can decide whether to stay in the palace or go out according to her own wishes.

And even if it is not the prescribed age, if a palace attendant wants to go out of the palace, as long as he can give a reasonable reason, he can be allowed to go out after approval.

Isn't this a humanized rule anyway? Otherwise, you really want to stay in this deep palace for the rest of your life, and live separate from your parents and relatives?

Li Chengxuan was rather disappointed.

I thought Song Jinning stopped him because he wanted him to stay for a while, but I didn't expect to discuss things with him.

As for what she said...

"You are the lord of the harem, and you are in charge of the phoenix seal. You can take charge of everything you do in the harem, and you don't need to know me."

Song Jinning was slightly startled when she heard the words.

Although she is a good queen now, Li Chengxuan and she actually knew that she was just sitting in the queen's seat temporarily, and the latter would definitely be replaced when it was about time.

But how do you hear Li Chengxuan's decisive tone when he just said that, as if she would always sit on the queen's seat?

"Hold Fengyin?"

Song Jinning murmured softly, and then she paused for a while before she continued, "All right, then I will hold the phoenix seal for the time being."

Others didn't understand the meaning of her words, but Li Chengxuan understood it in seconds.

She still keeps the so-called contract marriage firmly in her heart, waiting for her to revoke it at any time.

Li Chengxuan actually wanted to tell her that before, I did think about waiting for my full wings to find a suitable time to destroy you, but now I have never thought about it.

You are the only queen in my heart. In this world, no one can stand by my side except you.

But your Majesty is arrogant. Moreover, Li Chengxuan knew very well that this is not the time to say this to Song Jinning.

Because this will scare her on the contrary, and it will make her take the initiative to alienate him in the future.

He didn't say anything, but took a deep look at Song Jinning, then turned and raised his foot and left.

However, although Li Chengxuan said that Song Jinning was in charge of the affairs of the harem, Song Jinning still wrote down all the thoughts in his mind on the rice paper one by one, and then dried the ink, sending Bailu to Li Chengxuan.

In addition to the release of a group of palace servants as mentioned earlier, there is also a matter of regulating punishment in the palace.

Although there is no concubine of Li Chengxuan in the harem, there are many concubines and wives of the first emperor. There are also institutions such as Shangfu Bureau and Shangyiju, which add up to many palace attendants.

Where there are so-called people, there are rivers and lakes, and the so-called officials crush people to death. When there are more people, it is inevitable that there will be bullying, private punishment, and even torture.

But suffering from low status, those palace attendants who had been lynched did not dare to speak out. Because they knew that no one would be fair to them, and they still had to do things under those people in the future, so they could only endure silently.

Song Jinning felt that this was very inhumane.

It’s already very hard to stay away from your family and enter the palace as a housekeeper, so you still have to be lynched? Even if you are accidentally beaten to death, no one will give justice to it?

Just want to do something.

As her temporary queen, sent a decree to go down, Xiaoyu's harem:

If anyone in the harem has done something wrong, it will be reviewed and convicted by the Department of Justice, and no one may abuse lynching. If you find out, you will be severely punished!

Of course, Song Jinning’s starting point was good, but she felt that she had to obtain the consent of Li Chengxuan and the Queen Mother.

One is that although she is now a queen in name, the status of these two is still higher than her. It's better to tell them before doing the thing. Although they don't talk about it when it is saved, they blame her for making private opinions in their hearts.

Secondly, these two are both people with great strategies. What if there is something wrong with this point of my own suggestion? These two can help with some advice.

Furthermore, if her decree continues, there will definitely be dissatisfaction and non-compliance. And most of them were at the master level. The Prophet met these two bigwigs, and when she started to rectify, she wouldn't be afraid of them even if these people were making trouble.
