Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 445 Allowing You to Be Equal
When Emperor Chen said this, not only the courtiers, but even Su Qingning were stunned.

It's no wonder that everyone is like this, what the emperor said is really too important.

Since ancient times, the empress has been in charge of the Phoenix seal and the six palaces, the harem is the place the empress should manage, and the former dynasty has always been a place where the harem cannot set foot.

The emperor's order is tantamount to elevating Su Qingning's rights to an equal status with himself. With this order, Su Qingning can get involved in the affairs of the previous court.

For the ministers, this is simply nonsense!
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible!" Immediately, a minister stood up and saluted the Emperor.

Su Qingning stood beside the Emperor Chen and turned his head to look at the Emperor Chen. Because of the obstruction of some ministers, the expression on the Emperor Chen's face at this time was not good.

Tightly holding the emperor's hand, when he looked at her, Su Qingning smiled at him.

For her, this is already very good, her husband dotes on her, and her children are well-behaved, she is very satisfied.

Replying to her with a calm expression, Emperor Chen turned his head again and looked at the ministers in the Tai Chi Hall.

In the hall, many people have knelt down, but there are still people joining in.

"Are there any objections?" After waiting for a long time, and no one knelt down, Emperor Chen opened his mouth.

The ministers standing in the hall, you look at me, I look at you, still maintaining a standing posture.

In their view, the emperor is still there, even if the empress is given the right, the empress may not be involved in the affairs of the previous dynasty.

Although right now, the emperor gave the queen the right, so what?A person with authority, when someone really wants to get his hands on the power in his hands, he will definitely be the first to stand up.

Today is the Empress Conferment Ceremony, the emperor said these things, probably just to show his love for the empress, the empress will still be in the harem, and will not go to the front to point fingers.

Therefore, they were not worried, but felt that those kneeling down were too nervous.

Shen Yu is also in the Tai Chi Hall, he stands very straight, he trusts his sister, she is definitely very measured, and she trusts the emperor more, she is not an arbitrary person.

Seeing that no one was kneeling down, Emperor Chen pulled Su Qingning together and sat on the head seat.

"In your eyes, I am a foolish emperor?" He opened his mouth slowly, and the emperor's eyes swept over everyone.

Those whom he saw lowered their heads one by one, not daring to speak.

"The emperor is naturally not a fool. I believe that the emperor is not an arbitrary person, and I also believe that the empress will become a good empress just like the previous empress."

Some ministers saluted the emperor and said their thoughts, and immediately, some ministers echoed his words.

"What about you? Do you think I'm a fool?" Looking at the man kneeling on the ground, Emperor Chen spoke again.

"I dare not wait!" Who dares to say that the emperor is a fool?Just because of what he just said?That is really fatal!

From the time the emperor ascended the throne to the present, everything he has done is in the eyes of everyone.

Back then, when the emperor first came to the throne, what was Daxing like?What is it like now?Anyone with eyes can tell that the emperor is certainly not a faint king, he is a wise king!
All of a sudden, some of the ministers kneeling on the ground began to regret it. They knew earlier that they should wait and see, and shouldn't kneel down so arbitrarily.

"Since you think I'm not, what are you kneeling on the ground for?" Emperor Chen said again, and those ministers who regretted it immediately stood up and returned to their original standing positions.

At this time, there were only a handful of people left on the ground, still kneeling.

"How many of you, do you think I'm a fool?" With only a few left, it would be easier to settle things down. Emperor Chen looked at them and asked again.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty is not a fool, but since ancient times, the harem has not been allowed to interfere in politics. What the Majesty said just now is equivalent to giving the Empress the right to do so. It must not be allowed!"

Those ministers are older and have outdated views. What they believe in will not change easily.

"Several adults think this way, it's wrong. The emperor gave the empress the right, only out of respect for the empress. It doesn't mean that the emperor gave the empress the power, and the empress will control the government."

There are ministers who are friends with Shen Yu, and they can trust Shen Yu's character.

He knew that the queen was Shen Yu's cousin, and she grew up in Shen Yu's parents since she was a child. It's not bad to be a brother, and she can't be wrong to be a sister, otherwise she wouldn't be a queen.

Then, someone stood up and helped to speak.

After hearing what he said, many people stood up and echoed. The ministers who were kneeling on the ground understood that it would be of no benefit to them if the stalemate continued.

So, one by one stood up and stopped talking.

Calm was restored in the Tai Chi Hall, and Emperor Chen's eyes flicked over everyone, "Does anyone have anything else to say?"

No one answered, and the hall continued to be silent.

"Since all the ministers have no objections, now the auspicious time has come, and I will send the queen to Fengyang Palace to accept the worship of the imperial family's wife."

Su Qingning was pregnant, Emperor Chen was worried that she would go back by herself, it was purely helpless to let her come by herself before.

"I will send you off to the emperor, empress empress." Seeing that the emperor was about to leave, all the officials hurriedly knelt down and saluted, and the emperor supported Su Qingning together and left the Tai Chi Hall.

On the way back to Fengyang Palace, Su Qingning thought about what happened just now, and couldn't help looking at the emperor, "Why did the emperor suddenly think of saying that? Just now, my concubine was really worried."

With so many ministers kneeling on the ground, if there is a deadly remonstrance from someone who can't think of it, then her crime will be serious.

"Ning Ning, you are now the empress and my wife. You should be equal to me. Therefore, I don't need you to kneel down to me. In front of me, you are you."

Hearing Su Qingning's question, Emperor Chen looked at her and expressed his thoughts.

"I originally wanted to give you a quiet harem, but you also know that the concubines in the harem, after all, have been in the palace for many years. Even if the people's customs are opened up in Daxing, it is impossible to let them leave. For the family, it is a very serious matter."

With an apology in his words, the emperor continued, "Therefore, there are no concubines in the six palaces. I can't do it. What I can do is to make you equal to me, which can be regarded as a little compensation for you."

I thought about disbanding the harem, but the price was too high. This would not only affect the concubines in the harem, but also have a great impact on Su Qingning and the Shen family.

So after weighing the matter, Emperor Chen suppressed that idea in his heart. After much deliberation, the only thing he could do was to promise Su Qingning an equal position. What he could do, Su Qingning, the queen, could also do.

In this way, even if he has something to do in the future, she doesn't have to worry about being unable to gain a foothold in the court or the harem.
