Chapter 295 The Throne Ceremony
Chapter 295 The Throne Ceremony
"Aunt, when I become the emperor, I will protect you for your whole life. I will let you enjoy yourself freely, do whatever you want, go wherever you want. If anyone dares to say no, I will order the palace guards to "snap" his head off!"
Luo Li looked at the confident little Wu Ji with a bit of guilt. She picked him up and said, "Wu Ji, the royal aunt and uncle will never abandon you in the palace. We will help you expand your territory, stabilize your country, and then you can travel far and enjoy life."
Zhao Wuji held Luo Li's face with his little hands, "Aunt, you can go out to play, but you are not allowed to go too far. If Wuji doesn't see you for a long time, he will miss you so much that he will cry."
Luo Li felt sad. Pushing such a young child onto the throne was a bit cruel and unfair to him. However, except for Wu Ji, the safety of the couple was not guaranteed if other princes sat on the throne!
The supreme throne is what many people dream of. Perhaps, in the future, Wu Ji, who has tasted the power of the emperor, will be grateful to the uncle of the Qin King for his decision to give up the throne? ...
At the coronation ceremony, Zhao Wuji, wearing a dragon robe and a flat crown, had a serious face. Despite his young age, he had the majesty of an emperor.
The Regent Zhao Defang, who was sitting next to the dragon throne, was dressed in a black robe embroidered with four-clawed dragons in gold thread and a purple gold crown on his head. He was as gentle as jade and had a calm smile, but no one dared to look down on him.
Luo Li secretly lifted the bright yellow curtain on the side of the Golden Throne Hall and watched as all the civil and military officials shouted in unison: "Long live the emperor!"
Zhao Wuji sat with dignity, Zhao Defang smiled with satisfaction, Luo Li couldn't help but smile, "Wuji, this kid is really the material to be an emperor!"
Little Mu Xiu lowered his voice and said, "Princess, I, Mu Xiu, am also capable of being a shopkeeper!"
Yu Li stretched out her hand and tapped Mu Xiu on the top of his head, "I, Yu Li, am the material to manage you!"
Ni Shan'er pursed her lips and smiled secretly. Sister Yuli was really bold. Yesterday, she slapped the palm of the new emperor Zhao Wuji's hand three times with a board. Emperor Zhao Wuji even smiled and apologized to Sister Yuli.
Meng Qian's heart was pounding as he looked at Xiao Wu Ji, who was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the dragon throne. He, who was once a lowly person in the Liao Kingdom, actually had a friend who was the emperor.
Meng Xue held Ping'er's hand, bit her ear and whispered, "Ping'er, Brother Wuji said he likes you. If you marry Brother Wuji when you grow up, you will be the queen."
Ping'er shook her head, "Aunt Luo doesn't like being the Queen. Being the Queen is definitely not a fun thing. Ping'er doesn't want to be the Queen when she grows up."
Hong Gu smiled and pulled the two innocent children away. Ruhua, Siyu and Tingting also quickly pulled Yuli and the others away to prevent them from making any noise and ruining the solemn atmosphere of the coronation ceremony.
As a mother, Princess Wei was canonized as Empress Dowager Zhaoning. Empress Dowager Zhaoning sat in the Yayan Pavilion and said to Empress Dowager Song with a smile, "Mother, Li'er said that she wants to take you out of the palace to live for a few days. Please don't forget about me and Wuji and my son. Don't be reluctant to go back to the palace."
The gloomy look on Queen Mother Song's face disappeared completely, and she smiled with curved eyebrows and eyes, "Li'er is filial, and mother is happy when she is with her. Maybe she really doesn't want to return to the palace."
Princess Yongqing smiled even more happily, "Mother, you are praising the second daughter-in-law in front of the eldest daughter-in-law, be careful that the eldest sister-in-law will be jealous."
Empress Dowager Zhaoning patted the back of Princess Yongqing's hand and said, "Yongqing, I'm not the kind of petty person. Talk to Luo Li and find a way to take me out of the palace and have fun with her for a few days. Otherwise, if I get sick in this deep palace, it will be her fault."
Luo Li just stepped into the room and said, "It would be a great sin if I made you sick. Empress Dowager, how about you marry a handsome man?"
Empress Dowager Zhaoning blushed, and after saying "Pooh", she twisted the arm of Luo Li who was walking towards her, and only then did she cover up her embarrassment.
Luo Li, who was unwilling to suffer a loss, smiled and pinched her back, then bowed and said, "Mother, in three days, I will take you and Yongqing out of the palace and stay in the hot spring villa for a few days, okay?"
The Empress Dowager Song smiled happily and said, "Great! Mother has been waiting for you day and night."
"Sister-in-law, I wish I could leave the palace with you today."
Empress Dowager Zhaoning looked resentful and aggrieved: "Mother, you were all tricked out of the palace by Li'er, but I was sent to the deep palace by the couple. The difference between us is too big. I can't stand it. I can't stand it."
Luo Li held Empress Dowager Zhaoning's shoulders with an apologetic look, and coaxed her with sweet words: "Sister-in-law, I will come to the palace to see you often, and find an opportunity to sneak you out of the palace to play for a few days, okay?"
Empress Dowager Zhaoning smiled and said, "That's more like it. No wonder you always say that crying children get milk. From now on, I must learn more from you."
The Empress Dowager Song deeply realized that where there is a "silly" daughter-in-law, there will be laughter, and this deep, dark and cold palace can also be filled with warmth and laughter.
…………
Three months later, the border was stable. Li Yuanhao, who had already established a kingdom in Xixia, and the ambitious Empress Xiao of Liao did not dare to take advantage of the young emperor of the Song Dynasty to make trouble. What could deter them was the war god of the Song Dynasty, the regent Zhao Defang, and the thunderbolt punishment that was still a mystery.
The new emperor ascended the throne and changed the name to "Kaiyuan". The Song Dynasty was stable, the government was stable, the government orders were clear, the people lived and worked in peace, agriculture was prosperous, and commerce was thriving. The throne of the new emperor Zhao Wuji was considered stable. …
Zhao Defang gently stroked his beloved concubine's slightly bulging belly, "Li'er, your mother wants to take care of you personally, why did you send her back to the palace?"
Luo Li raised her hand and stroked his chin, her eyes full of lustful smiles: "Zhao Defang, you are so beautiful. Looking at your handsome face every day, the child I give birth to will definitely be handsome and unparalleled."
"The child will take after you, she is as beautiful as a fairy. Anyway, we are the most beautiful couple in the world, the child will take after father and mother and will not be ugly." Zhao Defang agreed with his beloved wife conceitedly.
Luo Li giggled happily for a while, then explained his previous question.
“My mother is my elder, and she has suffered so many grievances in the palace for so many years. I am afraid that she will be sad, and I just want her to be happy.
The queen mother's experience of pregnancy and child-rearing was not in line with my ideas. With my bad temper, I would never give up the healthy growth of my child to accommodate others. I was afraid that my words would offend the sensitive queen mother and make her sad, so I coaxed her back to the palace.
Zhao Defang, we have a deal! You can take care of your pregnancy and breastfeeding according to my instructions. You treat the words of the imperial doctors as shit. The rules about not bathing or washing hair, not running or jumping around, not opening windows or using fans, not eating seafood or spicy food, and taking pregnancy-maintaining medicine every day are all invalid in my opinion."
Zhao Defang looked at the beauty in his arms lovingly and nodded trustingly, "Okay! All up to you, but, Li'er, you have to make sure you keep your body healthy and strong."
Luo Li smiled mischievously: "Health is absolutely guaranteed, so being strong is fine. Zhao Defang, you don't have a quirk, do you like having a thick waist?"
"If you develop a pot belly, I will like a pot belly."
