Ancient women awaken: loving yourself is the way to go

Shen Xingxi: [Not writing it would only be a little troublesome. How could he not have thought that when he stood in the rainstorm for so long, why didn't Mantian and others come out to stop him? ]

Mo Hongyun stared blankly at the direction where Xingxi left. After a long while, he asked to the air: "When did Xingxi's people enter the palace? Are Mantian and the others alive?"

[Don't worry, Mo Hongyun. The host has never been a person who kills people indiscriminately. ]

Listening to the system's voice coming into his mind, Mo Hongyun smiled dejectedly, picked up a brush and wrote a letter and two identical imperial edicts.

He placed an imperial edict on the table and put the letter and another imperial edict into his sleeves.

"System, let her prepare a golden house for me." Mo Hongyun used his Qinggong skills and rushed into the rainstorm.

The system said to Shen Xingxi: [Host, Mo Hongyun asked you to prepare a golden house for him. Now he is flying out of the palace with Qinggong. Do you think he will run away? ]

Shen Xingxi opened the window, looked at Mo Hongyun disappearing in the rain, and curled his lips: [I believe Yunyun. ]

Mo Hongyun landed in the courtyard next to the Prime Minister's Mansion. He walked into the house, looked at himself in the mirror, and suddenly smiled.

In fact, this is quite good.

As an emperor, he faced countless pressures and troubles every day.

When it rained, he had to worry about the threat of floods; when he went to court, he had to deal with all kinds of messes.

If Xingxi wants this burden, then give it to her.

As he changed his clothes, he said, "What do you mean you believe me? Mantian is still in your hands, and I don't know where Wuti and Yueluo were taken by Xinghuo. You also know my whereabouts, so where can I run to?"

The system replied with a smile: [Mo Hongyun, don’t you like to hear that the host believes what you said? ]

Mo Hongyun was silent for a moment, then snorted coldly: "I don't want to listen!"

The system immediately complained: [Host, Mo Hongyun said he doesn't want you to believe what he said. Aren't you going to make him unable to get off the bed? ]

Shen Xingxi had a complicated expression as the two of them started chatting.

The dull feeling seemed to be swept away, and the thunder in my ears seemed to be quieter.

[In that case, I won’t prepare the golden house. It’s quite expensive. I’ll give you some clothes instead.]

Mo Hongyun's mouth twitched, "Is it a formal dress?"

System: [Host, Mo Hongyun wants both the golden house and the clothes, but he doesn't want any formal clothes.]

Mo Hongyun: “?”

Shen Xingxi: [Hahahaha, then let Mo Hongyun pay for it himself.]

Mo Hongyun: “?” So after losing the throne, he has to buy a cage and lock himself up?

"I don't want to listen to you anymore! I'm going to see the Prime Minister."

He changed his clothes, held an umbrella and knocked on the door of the General of Cavalry's mansion opposite.

The general was startled. "Your Majesty, I respectfully welcome you. I didn't know you were so great. I'm sorry for not welcoming you..."

Mo Hongyun waved his hand, "No need to be polite, come with me to see the Prime Minister."

He paused, took out the imperial edict and the letter, and said, "Wait for me outside the house. If anything happens to me, read out this imperial edict."

The General of Cavalry couldn't believe his ears. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the Emperor walking towards the Prime Minister's Residence.

He swallowed the words that were about to come to his lips, his eyes full of confusion.

Mo Hongyun entered the prime minister's room alone and sat casually on a chair beside him.

The Prime Minister leaned against the bed, his eyes dim and unclear, "My legs are inconvenient, so I won't salute the emperor. I wonder what the emperor has come to visit for?"

Since the Emperor chose the Queen between him and her, and since one of his legs was completely disabled, he stood on the opposite side of the Emperor.

The censor threatened to commit suicide in order to advise the emperor against the selection of concubines. It was he who was manipulating the matter behind the scenes. He wanted to make the emperor understand that without his support, the emperor would be like a bird without wings, unable to soar in the sky anymore. He would bear the infamy of the world and live a long and painful life.

He was also the one who arranged the repeated assassination attempts on the Queen. He wanted to make the Emperor realize that his love was not a good thing for the Queen.

All the officials brought up the matter of the Emperor's selection of concubines in the court every day, and it was he who secretly instigated it. He didn't believe that the Emperor could persist for the sake of the Queen.

If it weren't for the strong financial resources behind the Queen, he would not have been able to take action against the victims. He would have used the lives of millions of ordinary people to make the Emperor understand that he should do his job well and that a ruler of a country cannot be devoted to just one person.

Therefore, he had already torn his relations with the emperor a long time ago, and now he is too lazy to even put on a show.

Mo Hongyun didn't care about the Prime Minister's rudeness, and smiled softly, "I came here today to thank the Prime Minister and apologize on behalf of my mother.

At the beginning, my mother was forced to approach you by Minister Chen. Although she had no choice, she had the intention to deceive you. I should apologize on my mother's behalf."

The prime minister clenched his fists, and a flash of grief and anger flashed across his eyes. He lowered his eyelids and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, there is no need to do this. I have never blamed her. At least she treated me sincerely."

"Prime Minister, I am worthy of your teaching. We are very similar in this respect." Mo Hongyun picked up the teacup on the table. "Because the queen treats me sincerely, I can accept her coveting my position. After she defeats me, I will give her the throne."

Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister suddenly raised his head with a look of shock.

Mo Hongyun drank the tea slowly with a relieved smile on his lips: "I know what you did, but I couldn't do anything to you. I always cared about our friendship and let you plot behind my back. It's only natural that you got this result."

He stood up, walked to the Prime Minister, and whispered: "Prime Minister, I will return this life to you, but you have to give your life to Xingxi."

After saying this, he suddenly shouted, "Prime Minister, how dare you poison me?"

He threw the teacup in his hand to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell on the other side of the bed.

Hearing something wrong, the General of Cavalry rushed into the room, and saw the emperor spitting blood and the prime minister looking confused.

His heart gradually sank, and he vaguely realized that something was wrong.

He took two quick steps to check the emperor's breath, his hands trembling slightly, and ordered someone to call the imperial physician.

He sat down on the chair, almost unsteadily, and took out the imperial edict given by the emperor and opened it.

When he saw the imperial edict passing the throne to the Queen, his brows furrowed slightly, with a hint of complexity in his expression.

His hands were shaking, and it took him some time to open the letter.
