The love of fast-wearing has thousands of eons

Chapter 72 072 Empress Dowager (24)
So when Shen Mengdie woke up from sleep again, everything was settled.Prime Minister Zuo was sent into exile by confiscating his home, and now the emperor has passed away, and Prince Li is in charge of the government.

"What time is it now?"

"It's time to apply."

Hearing the servant girl's answer, Shen Mengdie slowly sat up after blinking her tired eyes hard. "Get dressed for me."

"Yes, princess."

After washing and dressing up, Shen Mengdie used the cakes prepared for her by the kitchen, and asked the maid again: "Where is the prince?"

"If you go back to the princess, the prince went to Prime Minister Zuo's mansion and has not returned yet."

"Prime Minister Zuo..." After hesitating for a moment, Shen Mengdie put down the pastry in his hand and told the servant girl, "Send someone to prepare the sedan chair. I'm going to Prime Minister Zuo's mansion."

"Yes." After the maid answered, she turned around and went out to arrange people.

When everything was ready, Shen Mengdie set off with a mighty team.Although she doesn't like this kind of life, Xuanyuan Zichen was frightened by the last assassination incident, so as long as she goes out, she must bring enough guards by her side.

With the sound of falling off the sedan chair, Shen Mengdie lifted the curtain and walked out. Looking at Prime Minister Zuo's mansion surrounded by officers and soldiers, she could only lament the changes in the world for a moment.

"Why are you here?" When Shen Mengdie was looking around, he was met by Xuanyuan Zichen who came out of the mansion just now.

"Didn't I want to come and see you, how is the situation now?"

"The people in Prime Minister Zuo's residence have been taken into custody."

Hearing this, Shen Mengdie hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What about Master Mo?"

"I have temporarily sent him to another place, and I will deal with it after two days."

"That's it..." Since the other party already has a good solution, Shen Mengdie is not going to disturb him anymore.

"Okay, go back quickly. The remaining party has not been cleaned up yet, and you are not safe outside."

Faced with Xuanyuan Zichen's uneasy mood, Shen Mengdie obediently let him lead him away.

A few days later, the enthronement ceremony started smoothly under the arrangement of the supporters.The new emperor ascended the throne, exempted from tax for three years, and the people cheered.In the eyes of ordinary people, no matter who is the emperor, as long as they can live a stable life, eat enough and wear clothes, the people will love them from the bottom of their hearts.At the same time, Shen Mengdie also decided to help the people in various ways in the name of the Shen family, arrange free clinics to adopt orphans, and reduce rent for her servants who farm.

Seeing that all this is going on in an orderly and unstable manner, Shen Mengdie is also very happy in her heart.After Xuanyuan Zichen ascended the throne and moved into the palace, the other party also forcefully kept her there.

Just after everything settled down, other voices began to appear above the court.The atmosphere in the early court today was quite tense, and all the ministers felt a little uneasy for a while under the majestic aura of the new emperor.Finally, at the front of the line, a high-ranking official finally plucked up the courage to walk out of the line after hesitating for a while.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have a performance from my humble minister."

"Zunzuo..." Xuanyuan Zichen sat on the dragon chair, and glanced at the other party casually.

After wiping the non-existent sweat stains on his forehead, the minister lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, do you think the matter of concubine selection should be put on the agenda?"

"Well, Aiqing is right."

Seeing that His Majesty agreed with his point of view, the minister no longer trembled. "Your Majesty, let the Ministry of Rites prepare for the selection of concubines."

"The Ministry of Rites can make preparations, but it's not about choosing a concubine, but the queen I want to marry."

"This..." The minister asked respectfully after being stunned for a moment, "I wonder which daughter your Majesty has taken a fancy to?"

"Naturally, she is the daughter of the emperor's Shen family."

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

Xuanyuan Zichen tapped the back of the chair and looked at the other party with sharp eyes. "Oh... why did Aiqing say that?"

"Since ancient times, Taoist merchants in the capital have valued profits and neglected parting, I'm afraid it's..."

"Presumptuous!!!" Xuanyuan Zichen stood up angrily without waiting for the minister to continue.

"I am frightened."

"I have made up my mind, there is no need to say more."

Faced with Xuanyuan Zichen's resolute attitude, all the ministers had to bow their heads collectively. Although the new emperor ascended the throne, all forces have taken a fancy to His Majesty's harem, hoping to arrange people from his own family to enter, but the new emperor's attitude is tough , all plans can only be discussed later.

Prime Minister You looked at the different expressions of the other ministers present, and secretly mocked in his heart.Who doesn't know that the Holy Majesty has been waiting for his destined person when he was still a prince, and now at this time someone wants to get a piece of the pie, and he is not afraid of losing his black hat.

When the atmosphere was extremely tense, Father Mo slowly walked out of the team and bowed deeply to Xuanyuan Zichen. "Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

"I don't know what Aiqing has to say?" Xuanyuan Zichen didn't pay much attention to this minister, but he didn't interact with him until Shen Mengdie asked for help in finding someone.

"I also hope that His Majesty will allow the minister to resign and return to his hometown."

The rest of the ministers looked at Father Mo in surprise. As the only minister who could continue to be active in the court after Prime Minister Zuo confiscated his home and exiled him, everyone could see that the new emperor had plans to reuse him. It would be unwise to resign at this time. .

Xuanyuan Zichen looked at the person next to him in silence for a moment, then slowly said: "Quite..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Although the court was full of glory, after experiencing the darkness of the officialdom, he decided to return to his hometown, to the person who had been waiting for him for many years.

And when all kinds of swords were on the verge of breaking out in the court, Shen Mengdie who was staying in the Shen family's other garden knew nothing about it. At this moment, she was busy counting the recent business income of the Shen family.

"Miss, someone from the Shen family is here."

Hearing the maid's announcement, Shen Mengdie put down the brush in her hand, sighed and looked at the person who came. "Who is here?"

"Mrs. Shen brought a large group of people here."

"The old lady is here?" Shen Mengdie didn't feel much about the arrival of other people, but the arrival of old lady Shen surprised her.

"Yes, the housekeeper has made arrangements for the future."

"In that case, let's arrange a banquet tonight." Shen Mengdie didn't want to have a close friendship with the members of the Shen family.

When she stopped the busy things in her hands, the servant girl had already started to hold the lamp. After rubbing her tired fingers, she locked the study and led the servant girl to the living room.

Just when she hadn't stepped into the door, a figure suddenly stepped forward and pulled her back, and when she took a closer look, it turned out to be her so-called mother. "My daughter, let mother take a good look at it."

Shen Mengdie suppressed the urge to throw the person away, smiled at him, and let the person pull her into the living room.

After seeing the group of Shen family members in the living room, she was momentarily stunned. "Are you all here?"

"Yes, cousin, you are getting married, of course we all want to come over." A petite girl smiled sweetly at her.
