"Empress Dowager, the emperor invited you in to speak." Before the attendant replied, Lian Hai had already come out.
Luo Xue looked behind her. County Lord Nan Concubine was still standing there, as if she didn't dare to come in. Luo Xue waved her hand, but she still hesitated.
"This subject greets Empress Dowager." When Helian Nan Feng saw Little Wei, he immediately bowed and acted humbly. Compared to when Helian Yichen had just returned, he was like a completely different person.
"Prince, you are free from formalities. Have you finished talking with the prince?" Luo Xue gave Helian Yichen a meaningful glance. The County Lord Nan Concubine was still waiting outside.
Tonight, let's all eat dinner together. We have already sent people to invite the other royal brother s and royal young brother s in. Helian Yichen received Luo Xue's hint and asked County Lord Nan.
"Yes, your servant will leave now." As County Lord Nan spoke, he headed outside to welcome the County Lord Nan's Consort.
County Lord Nan's Consort was stunned for a moment when she saw her husband changing into the Duke's attire again, but then her face revealed a smile.
"Your highness, should we move back to the prince's mansion?"
Seeing the warm smile on his wife's face, County Lord Nan was a little surprised. He thought that she would scold him, but who would have thought that she would actually give him a warm smile like never before.
At this moment, he was lost in thought. Back then, it was precisely this kind of smile that caused him to be enchanted, but it seemed that he had ignored her for too long.
He walked up to her and gently embraced her as he whispered into her ear, "The emperor is holding a family banquet tonight. We'll go back later. Jing-er, thank you for accompanying me for so many years."
County Lord Nan's gentle words moved the County Lord Nan's Concubine to tears. How long had it been since the Prince last spoke to her like this?
"Regardless of whether you are a prince or an emperor or even a commoner, I am still your wife and will always accompany you by your husband's side, never leaving you." County Lord Nan Concubine raised her phoenix eyes and said shyly.
"Good, I won't give up. Being able to marry you in this life is a blessing from me, Helian Nanfeng. If I were to have a wife like you, I will no longer have any regrets." County Lord Nan's eyes were glistening, and he was moved.
"It seems that people need to experience some things before they can mature. Only then can they understand what is most precious." Inside the hall, looking at the loving couple outside, Luo Xue sighed with emotion.
"Yes, being born in the royal family, we have neglected many things, especially the most precious ones around us. My initial plan was to let all of the royal family's children go to the common people to train, and not to swindle them with the royal family's banner. I will let them experience the common people's lives, and let them experience the true essence of life through their emotions." Helian Yichen nodded. This time's modern journey, he had gained way too much.
Even though he felt the same when he returned to the palace, when he looked at his sister-in-law in front of the palace, he realized that people were changing. During his time away from the palace, other people had found their own goals.
"Do you have to be the emperor?" Xiao Wei raised her head and looked at Helian Yichen, and suddenly asked.
"In the past, it might not be so, but now, after I've gone through modern times, I have a lot of ideas. And these ideas, can only be realized with the status of the Emperor." Helian Yichen replied to Luo Xue.
Luo Xue asked in shock: "You want to change the Leinuo Country into the modern world?"
Although modern technology was very developed and brought many benefits to mankind, there were also many negative consequences. The greatest impact was on environmental health.
"No, I just think that there are some things that are worth us learning from." Helian Yichen shook his head. He had seen modern history before, to achieve that degree of progress was not something that could be achieved in a day and a night. He also did not want it to become prosperous like that.
When Luo Xue heard this, she smiled and said, "It seems that you have a passionate and full plan waiting to be put into practice."
Helian Yichen was a little embarrassed by Luo Xue's laughter and said ashamedly, "That's right, development is a hard truth. Compared to the modern era, just the lives of the people are enough to make me feel incomparably ashamed."
Luo Xue knew that Helian Yichen had truly made up her mind and could not bear to splash cold water on his face, so she advised: "That is not true either, everything requires a process. The most important thing is peace.
Yes, Jiu Yu came here today, he mentioned to me about signing the peace agreement, and I heard that it was my mother's idea, do you think I should sign it? Since Luo Xue had mentioned it at this time, Helian Yichen decided to take out the matter of Jiu Yu coming here today to discuss.
Luo Xue was overjoyed upon hearing this, but she was also worried. Jiu Yu's character was truly unbelievable, so she said again: "Of course it's a good thing, but can he really abide by it?"
That's why I suggested to him that there was no need for us Human Realm to sign the contract, unless Devil Realm himself could join the contract. However, he also wanted me to ask Yan Kai to persuade him, because do you think that Yan Kai would agree?
"This... I think Yan Kai should agree to it. Although everyone thinks that he is very evil, he did not act that way. He is more emotional than humans. "
Luo Xue was startled, but she did not dare to say it out loud, and only spoke with an uncertain tone.
I think so too, but I can't let this matter go too quickly. I want to wait for Jiu Yu to make up his mind, then we can go to Devil Realm and talk about this to Yan Kai.
Hearing Helian Yichen's words, Luo Xue's beautiful eyebrows knitted together. She did not know what Helian Yichen was thinking, but he was obviously testing her, so she was a bit unhappy, and said: "Although this kind of thing cannot be rushed, it also cannot be delayed for long. If both Jiu Yu and the Heaven Realm's side are certain, you should go and find Yan Kai.
"Alright, then let's wait for news from Jiu Yu. I will handle the matters of the country here and plan a reform plan with the ministers." Knowing that Scorching Snow was angry, Helian Yichen did not bring it up again.
There were no outsiders to the dinner, other than the empress dowager, the princes, their families, and their mothers. None of the concubine s in the harem were among them.
There were six tables inside the hall, and it was different from how it was in the past. This time, the men sat together, and the women sat together.
"Empress Dowager, all you concubines, brothers, royal young brother, sister-in-law, all of you don't have to be so formal. This is just a family banquet, just like all ordinary families, today we don't talk about anything else other than family matters. Everyone can drink freely and chat freely, whatever you want to say, don't mind me. Just take me as your little brother. Brother …"
Helian Yichen did not say anything, but once he said it, everyone became even more nervous, especially the various nobles, some of whom had just been released from prison.
Luo Xue saw that everyone was trembling, so she didn't dare to say anything. She smiled and said: "If you say this, then I'm afraid they won't dare to say it. In my opinion, it's better for you to leave."
Luo Xue glared at Helian Yichen, then said to the rest of the people: "Everyone, don't take it to heart. Actually, Your Majesty did this for a reason." As Luo Xue said this, the women lowered their heads, not even daring to look.
"Your Majesty, I just hope that everyone is more like a family. This matter started from a year ago, and after a year, an accident happened to the Emperor. After suffering from a very heavy injury, his internal organs were shattered due to fear, so I couldn't help it, and so Han Er, my son, was not known to everyone since birth, and that is that Han Er was born with an extraordinary ability, which is to pass through time and space, and like our Emperor, the Emperor also has a mind-reading. So, today, everyone is sitting here, no matter if you don't want to speak or not, the Emperor knows what you are thinking. Luo Xue stood up and walked to the side of the ladies.
"Xue Er, don't scare everyone, even though I have the mind-reading, it's been a long time since it's been used." Seeing the change in everyone's expressions, Helian Yichen quickly explained.
It's true, scolding people is not against the law, the Emperor has already decided to change the law from today onwards, the first rule is scolding people and it's not against the law. In the past, when you scolded the Emperor, it was a crime to deceive the Emperor, but now it's not, you can scold me whatever, in the past, I scolded him everyday, he did not do anything to me, do not you want me to scold him, Sister-in-in-law king, you scold him first. " As Luo Xue spoke, she picked up County Lord Nan's Consort and let her be the first to begin.
Luo Xue knew that County Lord Nan's Concubine must have a lot of complaints about Helian Yichen.
Seeing that everyone was looking over, the County Lord Nan's Concubine said nervously, "I … Empress Dowager, chenqie is still not in a hurry to thank the Emperor, why would she scold the Emperor? "
"Aunt Wang, do you really not blame the emperor? Previously, I did a brief calculation and found out that there are roughly thirty or so women who have been favored by the County Lord Nan. Adding them to that, there are also the original rooms of the King, and there are about fifty of them. With this many women, even if one person goes for a day, it would not even take ten days per year. Luo Xue deliberately provoked the wangfei.
"I... "Empress, how can you be like this? Many of them were once the emperor's favorite women. Now that he's returned, why …"
"But I won't allow my husband to have a second woman to bathe him. Do you still want to hug him left and right?" Luo Xue said deliberately.
"No, Xue Er, like I said, you are the only woman I want in this lifetime, and in the future, you will also be the only wife I will have in this harem." Helian Yichen replied without the slightest hesitation.
"Your majesty, you can't do this. You only have one wife, so why would the prince want a group of concubines? This is unfair. Your concubine definitely won't agree." The Consort of the County Lord Nan was already crying from anxiety, so naturally she forgot about the bullying.
"That's right, that's indeed unfair. Helian Yichen is simply too unworthy of being the emperor, he doesn't even know how to lead by his body. Aunt Wang, if it were me, I would go up and slap him twice." Snowy added fuel to the fire on the side.
