After the marriage, the cousin was spoiled by the whole family of the Marquis's Mansion

Chapter 214: Founding of the Nation

Xie Chengwen was like being struck by thunder, with shock and disbelief written all over his eyes.

Does he even know what he is talking about?
This is trying to kill the whole family!
Rong Peilan also looked at Song in shock, "Aunt, do you know what you are talking about?!"

She thought that the Song family would ask for a title and protection for Xie Shuning.

Unexpectedly, she actually wanted Xie Shuning to enter the palace as a concubine.

Song looked back at her daughter who was pinned to the ground.

Once that crazy idea takes shape in my heart, it will grow wildly like a vine, as if it were watered by the resentment of the past.

She was right.

Ning'er had clearly said before she got married that she didn't want to get married.

If she had been more alert and watched her daughter get married in person, wouldn't her daughter be the mother of the country now?

There was no need for her to kneel in front of Rong Peilan and beg for mercy like she was doing now.

"My lady, I'm not crazy. I just want to save my daughter."

"It has been wrong for so many years, and now we are just correcting the mistake!"

Ji Yunzhang took a step forward, embraced Rong Peilan and took a step back.

"I think this madness is contagious! Madam Xie probably doesn't know what the world's surname is now, otherwise how could she dare to say such disrespectful words!"

"Wei Chi! Take these two lunatics away! Let Xie Qingde come and take them away personally!"

"Yes."

Wei Chi is now the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards. Whenever the emperor and empress leave the palace, he will follow them.

Song tightly grasped the hem of Rong Peilan's skirt, her eyes reddened, "Madam, don't forget, when you and Uncle Rong were alone and helpless, who was it that sheltered you from the wind and rain! And who was it that allowed you to marry in style!"

Ji Yunzhang's face darkened, "Madam Xie is threatening the Queen."

Several guards tied up Song and Xie Shuning tightly.

Song's eyes became more and more crazy, "It was a mistake back then! The Queen stole the marriage of the sisters, can you feel at ease..."

"What are you all standing there for? Shut her mouth!"

Eunuch Qian, who rushed over, turned pale and quickly scolded.

Eunuch Qian originally served in the Imperial Study of the previous dynasty. With the defeat of the previous emperor, the functions of the Imperial Study were abandoned, and he became an abandoned child in the imperial city.

He was promoted during the reign of Emperor Chongguang of the previous dynasty, so naturally he had met the current Majesty.

He had seen His Majesty's past as a subject, and when he thought he was going to be executed, His Majesty actually re-employed him.

He had never heard of the Empress's story, but he only knew that her parents died when she was young and she lived with her uncle.

How could an orphan have the ability to change the marriage of her uncle's daughter?

What's more, it has not been brought up for so many years, but now that His Majesty has ascended the throne, it is bringing up the issue.

Who knows what is really going on here.

The emperor and empress are in love now. If others were to slander them out of jealousy, it would be his dereliction of duty!
Rong Peilan stared in a daze at the backs of Song and Xie Shuning as they left.

My aunt was right. All this never belonged to her. The Ji family had offered a large betrothal gift to marry Xie Shuning, the daughter of the Xie family.

Her cousin gave it to her without telling anyone.

If someone had discovered and stopped Xie Shuning at that time, wouldn't she be the one standing here now?

Ji Yunzhang turned his head and saw that her face was a little pale.

"My lady, don't let your imagination run wild."

Just like before, he called her wife.

"We have been through so many ups and downs over the years. Is there ever a day of peace and tranquility?"

"It's not the first day you've known your cousin. Is she someone who can endure this hardship?"

Rong Peilan slowly raised her head, her heart was in turmoil and she didn't know what to do.

She didn't know what her cousin would look like now if she really married him...

-

Sacrifices to emperors and empresses were performed at the altar in all dynasties.

The emperor and empress of the Dasheng Dynasty did not hold sacrifices, only a coronation ceremony.

The bright red uniforms were hastily made by the Four Departments. Ji Yunzhang and Rong Peilan stood opposite each other, looking at each other wearing three layers of court robes.

Rong Peilan, "This... is heavier than hanging a child."

Ji Yunzhang smiled and said, "When have you ever had children hanging on your body? They all grew up on their father."

Rong Peilan patted her belly and said, "If they are not hanging on my body, where did they come from? Did they pick them up?"

"What did you pick up?"

Ji Rongan ran the fastest, and came in at a flash, like a small cannonball, almost knocking Rong Peilan to the ground.

Ji Yunzhang immediately lifted up the ignorant brat and said, "If you try to hurt your mother, you'll get yourself into trouble."

Ji Rongan wrinkled his nose and snorted a few times, "Father is partial. He likes mother and sister the most. My brother and I are the poor ones."

Ji Qian'an, who came later, led his two younger sisters in and bowed politely.

"Your son pays homage to you, Father, King, and Mother."

Ji Yunzhang tapped Ji Rongan's forehead and said, "You are the one who talks the most. What about your manners?"

Ji Rongan shrank his neck, and the governess came running in breathlessly.

"Your servant, your servant, wishes to see your Majesty, your Majesty!"

"Your Highness is running too fast!"

As soon as Ji Rongan saw the governess, he shrank behind his mother and said, "Mom, when are you going back to Zhaofeng?"

Rong Peilan held his hand and asked, "Rong'er, don't you like it here?"

Ji Rongan scratched his head, "It's not that I don't like it, it's just... there are no mushrooms here!"

Rong Peilan: "..."

Ji Yunzhang patted the back of his head and said, "Then study hard. When you grow up, your father will give you Zhaofeng as a fiefdom."

Ji Rongan cheered, "Great!"

Then he blinked his eyes curiously and asked, "What is a fiefdom?"

Ji Yunzhang, "..."

Four children dressed in their best clothes followed their parents.

It’s a long staircase and you have to climb it by yourself.

The imperial power is supreme, but also destined to be lonely.

Most of the court officials on both sides were officials from the previous dynasty, and only a very small number of diehards were still fighting fearlessly.

The most stubborn among them was the Queen's uncle, Lord Xie Qingde.

His wife and daughter offended the Empress and were thrown into prison, but Lord Xie did not even show up.

The emperor and empress stood hand in hand on the high platform, and the officials below also changed into new court robes.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, and your Majesty, your Majesty, are blessed."

"rise."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ji Yunzhang looked at the officials who were hanging their heads, among whom were many of his old acquaintances.

Either gratitude or resentment.

Now it's all gone.

Eunuch Qian, who was standing aside, was still reading the edict of accession to the throne, announcing the new dynasty and new era.

Ji Yunzhang tilted his head slightly and whispered to Rong Peilan beside him.

"This is how it feels standing here from afar. I remember clearly which old bastards have complained to me and which ones have fought with me in childhood. Now I can slowly settle the scores."

Rong Peilan couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips. After being teased by him, she was not so nervous anymore.

"Your Majesty, please remember to vent your anger for me."

"Who?"

"you."

Ji Yunzhang, "..."
