Chapter 592.2: The Empress Governs the Country I

The Empress Governs the Country I (2)
It sounded as if exceptionally approving, but having worked with Li Hong Yuan for the last two three months, would they not know what he was like? The inner palace not being allowed to interfere in politics, would he not think of himself? But, since he has let the empress come to the imperial study, even letting her look over the memorandums, then it can only mean that he simply didn’t have this matter taken seriously.
He would just this easily compromise? Since he retreated a step, then it just means that his next big move can make them retreat ten steps, or even a hundred steps.
“This emperor slightly feels a headache, unable to look at the memorandums, thus called the empress over to help look over. Since everyone feels that the empress is interfering in politics, then these memorandums will just be given to you all to handle. Prior to this emperor fully recovering from the headache, regardless of the matter, all don’t need to submit up. That’s all then.” Li Hong Yuan directly got up, pulling along Jing Wan and leaving.
“Your Majesty, your Majesty……”
They rather want to chase after, but got directly blocked by the imperial guards.
The court officials looked to one another in dismay. Looking at his Majesty’s majestic strides, how was it like he was ill? Saying nonsense with his eyes wide open, not even bothering to cover up his lie.
But, even if it’s like this, what can they do to him? His willfulness, back when he was still a qinwang, they’d already properly experienced before. Now that he was the emperor, it further didn’t need to be mentioned. If he says he will toss aside the governmental affairs, then he absolutely can just thoroughly abandon. But, even if he tosses aside, would they, as the officials, really dare to just fully take over? Li Hong Yuan wasn’t a young child that has never touched upon politics before, and further wasn’t a puppet. For many things, if he doesn’t use the seal, it will just be shelved, but for many things, it just can’t afford to be set aside. Once set aside, the consequences it will lead to will be hard to imagine.
This was his Qi Yuan’s mountains and rivers. He himself wasn’t worried, so what were others worried for? Heheh, he really won’t be worried, the ones that will worry will only be them.
“Sir Ruan, Sir Luo, what do we do now?”
They were merely just stating the facts, why did it just result in his Majesty suspending governmental affairs?
“What to do? Go back and carry on as usual.” Ruan Rui Zhong waved his hand, preparing to leave.
“But, there’s still things that need for his Majesty to personally……..”
Luo Pei Shan lightly glanced at him, “Then why don’t you go have his Majesty called back?” As long as you have that ability.
That person violently choked. Judging from his Majesty’s attitude, can he be easily called back?
———That’s why, it’s better to just quickly leave and have the matters in hand taken care of first. Luo Pei Shan practically had these words written on his face, closely following behind Ruan Rui Zhong in leaving.
Encountering a decisive and authoritative yet also willful and reckless emperor, they these officials were destined to just be ‘cowards’. To be able to leave a stroke in history, it’s already not bad, just don’t count on becoming renowned throughout the ages. That wasn’t realistic.
This while, even if severely and deeply realizing their own mistake, pleading in bitter tears for his Majesty to come back, it would still be impossible. If his Majesty doesn’t use this opportunity to ruthlessly act out, then this matter certainly won’t be over with. Some things, it was best to see through early. Even if continuing to be stubborn, they still won’t be the final winner. Even if throwing in one’s life, it still won’t be able to change anything.

Jing Wan followed by Li Hong Yuan’s side, “Actually, those things, Ah Yuan is completely skilled in handling, so don’t really need me to do anything.”
“So, Wan Wan means to say that while this husband work oneself to death on the throne, you’ll be carefreely relaxing in the inner palace?” Li Hong Yuan coldly said.
Jing Wan’s expression nearly just cracked, “The ancestral rules……”
“Wan Wan, do you want this husband to go set Fengxian Hall[1] on fire? Letting the people of the world all see how this emperor disrespects the ancestors?”
Jing Wan instantly went limp. To mention the ancestral rules and whatnot, sure enough, she was also saying nonsense. However, if he really were to burn down Fengxian Hall, then the things that the officials helped him cover up will all be in vain, and regardless whether it was her past life or this life, the ancestors were ultimately something carved in the bones. Even though in her past life, the influence of this was seemingly weaker, but it still existed, because it was the root. Because of democracy, a power wielder’s certain individual conducts didn’t really influence the people that much, but at present, it was different. The imperial power sat above all, and the emperor was just the supreme ruler. In a certain sense, it was also a firm belief. His every word and action will influence too many people. Jing Wan believed that if he were to take the lead in disrespecting the ancestors, disregarding filial piety, then it can very likely make Qi Yuan’s foundation collapse. Without that level of restriction, things will fall into chaos, and without needing the other countries to do anything, it will just fall to ruins on its own.
These, Jing Wan didn’t believe it was just frightening words said to scare people.
“Then, those memorandums, I can also look over in private. It doesn’t necessarily need to be brought onto the surface.”
“Wan Wan, this is wanting work without leaving a name? Just silently putting in effort, unable to obtain the proper payback? I really didn’t know you were this magnanimous?”
Jing Wan smiled a bit helplessly. She indeed wanted to do some things, but credit and whatnot, she really didn’t care. This actually has nothing to do with being magnanimous or not. Moreover, under the present society, women were a man’s vassal. No matter how much a woman does, it’s still impossible to obtain complete acknowledgement. You accomplishing ten great feats perhaps can’t even compare to the influence of a man doing a small matter. Moreover, clearly a positive and progressive thing, yet the response may not necessarily be good. Perhaps, one might even get slandered in all kinds of ways.
Just like for example, a man being fickle in love perhaps will just get passed on as a passionate love affair, but if switched with a woman, it’ll absolutely be viewed negatively.
This bit, even if he’s her husband, completely standing on her side, completely able to accept her thoughts, he can only change her situation. No matter how much of a living Enma, he’s still unable to control the hearts of the people. Moreover, there’s still the ‘moral integrity’, ‘obstinance’, and ‘dogmatism’ of the great majority of scholars.
If she peacefully stays in the inner palace, perhaps she will even leave behind in history a reputation as a virtuous empress, but if she walks onto the imperial court, perhaps it’ll just become ‘a hen crowing at daybreak’ and such.
Li Hong Yuan stopped in his tracks, turning around, his two hands holding Jing Wan’s shoulders, letting her face him, “Then, Wan Wan, tell me, are you really willing to accept this?”
Jing Wan blanked, staring into Li Hong Yuan’s eyes. Turns out, he already knew, and has had it all taken in. Indeed, she was fortunate enough to have twenty-plus years of a completely different life experience in another space and time, seeing a completely different side of women, so can she really just be indifferent seeing the current low status of women?
Jing Wan must admit, in the depths of her heart, she actually supported her own husband becoming the emperor, because only when she stands in a high enough position, possessing enough influence, can she do even more things. Her high position needed to rely on him, but influence, she nevertheless still needed to win on her own, striving to stand onto the surface, letting the court officials see her abilities, giving her acknowledgement. These things, she perhaps can do through him, but sometimes, all the measures in the world still isn’t as good as having a model. Moreover, a man strangely considering for the women of the world in everything and everywhere, even if as the emperor, he would still get denounced by the men of the world, believing that he practically had issues.
That’s why, she needed to stand up, becoming a model for the women of the world, letting men actually see, and see clearly. And even if having complaints, they’re unable to say it.
“Accept? How could I accept? Naturally unwilling to accept.” Jing Wan softly muttered.
“Since that’s the case, Wan Wan shouldn’t let down this husband’s painstaking efforts. This husband has even thrown in one’s own wise and brilliant image.”
Unable to be emotionally touched for more than three seconds…….
Don’t throw the pot to her, even without her, he still didn’t have any wise and brilliant image to speak of.
However, Jing Wan’s certain convictions have already become firm, and won’t waver again.
