Sweet Desire! The Cold Lord God, Who Can Tease, Coax, and Act Coquettish. - Chap 2036
Artist: ∑(O_O;)!!!
So, when Your Majesty took out the prince’s portrait, did you mean to only not want him?
How is he going to report to his task?
Or, how about buying two storybooks and going back to fool the prince?
He remembered that a new book called “The Prince Regent Enters the Imperial Study Again” had been published recently, which seemed to be a purely erotic book.
Well, he’ll go look for it on the street later.
… …
After this, Si Jin no longer allowed Shen Linyuan to enter the emperor’s chamber.
However, the matter of Si Jin’s selection of a concubine was suppressed by a joint petition submitted by Shen Linyuan.
It was because Duke Anguo was “considerate to the emperor” that he would basically send a beauty to the emperor every year to fill his harem.
In three years, three people were sent away, two men and one woman.
However, apart from meeting them once when entering the palace, Si Jin basically didn’t see these three people during the three years.
For some unknown reason, Shen Linyuan volunteered to be the emperor’s tutor when the Duke of Anguo sent the beauty to him in his first year.
Everyone in the palace saw this and had to respect him as Master Shen.
When Si Jin ate, he had to accompany him; when he drank water, he had to accompany him; even when he was reviewing memorials, he had to hold the little emperor on his lap and teach him how to write step by step.
As time went on, more and more rumors spread that Si Jin was a puppet emperor.
At the morning court today, there was someone who was willing to risk his life and directly used rumors as an excuse to make a remonstrance, saying that rumors were spreading everywhere and that it would be difficult to establish the emperor’s majesty if Shen Linyuan was not removed.
The censor thought that Si Jin must have hated Shen Linyuan because he had been controlled for so many years.
As long as he reports to the emperor, he will surely be very pleased.
Even if he couldn’t get rid of this tyrannical regent, he could at least leave a good impression on Si Jin.
If you are lucky, you can become a close minister to the emperor and live a life of peace and security.
But Si Jin just sat upright on the dragon chair, supporting his head with one hand, and smiled at the court officials who were as silent as a mouse: “Do you all think that the regent has done something wrong?”
All the ministers were silent, and no one dared to say a word except the censor.
Regardless of Shen Linyuan’s merits and demerits, no one dared to mess with him just because of the tiger talisman of the three armies in his hand.
Military power is the foundation of one’s life that must be held firmly in one’s hands in any era.
Over the years, Shen Linyuan has been unwilling to return power to the emperor, which has made many court officials fearful, timid, and afraid to speak, and they are like fence-sitters.
Finally, in the silence, Si Jin spoke again.
The censor was given eighty severe punishments, dismissed from his post and investigated.
When the court was dismissed, Dali Temple Minister Cao Zhen still couldn’t figure it out.
He walked down the steps, took a few quick steps and caught up with Duke Anguo, lowering his voice and asking, “Lord An, there are more and more people in the court who don’t like Shen Linyuan.”
“Before, Your Majesty was still young, so no one dared to say anything. Now that Your Majesty is so old, why is he still helping Shen Linyuan?”
“Get used to it?” Duke Anguo took Cao Zhen to the carriage and replied calmly, “Your Majesty lost his mother when he was young, and no one treated him well. In the last three years, he was brought up by Shen Linyuan, so he must be reluctant to let go.”
“What should we do?” Cao Zhen was a little anxious. “My son has been in the palace for three years, and he is still a servant of the emperor. In the Xia Dynasty, it is rare for an emperor to dare to bring his male favorites to the public. My son was recommended by you and entered the palace the earliest. Logically, he should be the best candidate for the queen.”
“But these years, let alone being with the emperor, even seeing him is difficult. What can I do?”
“Yes, that’s the problem.” After being pointed out by him, Duke Anguo seemed to understand something and the corners of his lips curled up.
“Your Majesty protects Shen Linyuan because he trusts him. If another person gets into your Majesty’s heart, wouldn’t Shen Linyuan be in trouble?”
Once Shen Linyuan loses his military power, he can find a way to get it.
By then, he will be the regent who will be feared by the world.
No matter who is the emperor, what he wants is power!
As I thought about this, a plan quietly emerged in my mind.
Duke Anguo looked at Cao Zhen and smiled with great confidence: “Tell your son to take a bath, change his clothes, and get ready to sleep with me later.”
