After the death escape, I became the white moonlight of the crazy tyrant

In the next few days, Wen Hemian repeated the lectures she gave to Xie Lang. She did not leave the palace, but stayed in a side hall at night.

Emperor Shun reigned for decades and did a lot of bad things. He also favored eunuchs and ignored state affairs, which led to the loss of power. When he was alive, these people could maintain superficial calm, but as soon as he died, conflicts broke out immediately.

If Wen Hemian had not received the system's notification in advance and brought people into the palace, Xie Lang would have had to go through several more waves of risks.

Controlling a puppet emperor and using him to control the princes was a common idea among several groups of people.

But now that Wen Hemian is here, we can’t let them succeed.

Fortunately, the original body's father was in a high position and had great power. He left her something to rely on even though he was far away at the border. Her badge could mobilize the imperial guards. Now, in addition to the secret guards, there were also imperial guards defending the area, temporarily isolating this area and keeping it away from the disputes inside and outside the court.

Within a few days, Emperor Shun was hastily buried, and Xie Lang was the only legitimate heir left. However, no one was willing to hold a coronation ceremony for this little emperor who came out of the cold palace. They were afraid that he could not read or write and could not handle the occasion at all. Calling him "Your Majesty" was the best attitude they could show.

But the young emperor had no real power and no support from his mother's family, so everyone assumed that he could only be a puppet.

Wen Hemian's act of imprisoning him in the palace further verified this statement.

As soon as Wen Hemian entered the officialdom, she was appointed as the Grand Tutor. The ministers in the court were already dissatisfied with her, and this incident gave rise to more speculation.

"It is rumored that Prince Huailing had a rebellious heart back then. Now his son is also so arrogant. Does he want to overthrow the country for his own selfish desires?"

"He is just a little boy, but he is holding the young emperor captive and not letting us see him. What is he thinking?"

"I think she is guilty, ugh!"

The ones who quarreled the most fiercely were the censors. They did not have much real power, but they had vicious tongues. With just two or three sentences, Wen Hemian was portrayed as a treacherous minister who did all kinds of evil.

However, Wen Hemian heard it and didn't care at all.

The court is in turmoil, and loyal and humble ministers cannot keep their posts, so it is better to become treacherous ministers.

The greatest treachery appears loyal.

Wen Hemian studied history in her previous life, so she knows this issue better than anyone else.

"Cough cough."

Seeing that she was staring at her homework without saying a word, Xie Lang's heart began to beat fast. However, he was too embarrassed to urge her, so he could only pretend to cough twice to try to attract her attention.

Wen Hemian collected his wandering thoughts and looked at him with a calm smile: "Well written, practice more. Your Majesty's insights are very unique. I have picked out a few books for you to read."

As a person who can kill the male and female protagonists, Xie Lang is very smart. He is good at imitation. After Wen Hemian corrected his writing style, his handwriting became very fluent in just a few days, which is much less troublesome than teaching ordinary children.

It’s just that this child seems to have little empathy. Wen Hemian guessed that it was influenced by his upbringing environment. He should wait and correct it slowly and not be impatient.

Xie Lang raised his eyebrows after receiving the compliment, but still said in a reserved tone: "Okay."

After a few days of rest, the bruises on his face disappeared, and his tender little face was white and rosy, and his eyes were black and round, like a puppy, looking pleasing to the eye.

Wen Hemian has never had much resistance to children. Seeing this, he smiled and pinched his face: "Learn well, I will take you to court later."

Xie Lang quickly covered his face and took two steps back. The dissatisfaction that had just surfaced was instantly diluted by this news. His eyes brightened: "Can I go to court now?"

Wen Hemian smiled and said, "You are the emperor, of course you have to attend court. Also, remember, from now on, call yourself "Zhen" in front of others."

Xie Lang put it into practice on the spot: "I understand."

Wen Hemian was touched by his cuteness as he pretended to be mature with a childish face. Unfortunately, the kid became defensive and her wish to pinch his face again was dashed.

-

After the storm gradually subsided, Wen Hemian withdrew the people surrounding the palace, and took Xie Lang to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to personally select some servants.

These people will be around Xie Lang in the future. Wen Hemian did not interfere and let him choose by himself.

Among them, the most clever eunuch was chosen by Xie Lang to serve him. He was named Lai Xi, a very festive name.

After thinking about it, Wen Hemian took off his badge and handed it to Xie Lang.

Xie Lang's eyelashes trembled.

He knew what this was. He had seen it before from his adopted father, the Emperor. It was something that could mobilize the imperial guards.

"Keep it. The palace is so small and there are many places to use people. However, this commander of the imperial guards is not easy to talk to. Your Majesty, please don't let him scare you to tears."

"I won't cry." Xie Lang retorted with a stern face. He looked at Wen Hemian carefully, "You give this to me, what about you?"

Rumor has it that the Prince of Huailing was weak since birth and was raised in a temple. It's cold now, and Wen Hemian has been wrapped up tightly in front of him. She has a slender figure and looks so fragile. If we give her to him, who will protect her?

"Your Majesty, are you concerned about me?"

Wen Hemian glanced at him with amusement and said, "I have secret guards around me, and they are no less powerful than the imperial guards."

Xie Lang had a cold face and said nothing.

This child was very cautious, and it was rare to hear his silent concern. Wen Hemian didn't bother with him and took him back to the palace after selecting the person.

Unexpectedly, halfway through the journey, he met Ning Hechu who was entering the palace.

This man is none other than the current Prime Minister of the Cabinet, one of the biggest instigators of the turmoil in the court, and also Xie Lang’s biggest enemy during his reign of power.

Several eunuchs who were quite favored by Emperor Shun died at his hands.

He took advantage of Emperor Shun's inattention to state affairs to seize power. Now he is in great power, above the six ministries, and can be called a powerful minister.

After the results of the imperial examination were announced, he sent people to contact Wen Hemian many times. Wen Hemian knew that what he wanted to do was completely different from what he did, so he rejected them all.

But we met in the end.

Ning Hechu was in his early thirties, and looked like a fair-skinned civil servant. When he saw the two, he did not greet them, but asked with a smile, "Is this the young emperor?"

Smiling fox.

Wen Hemian did not dare to relax. Just as she was about to speak, her sleeve was suddenly pulled. The kid seemed to be scared and shrank behind her. He was still trembling slightly, and his wet eyes popped out from time to time. He did not dare to look at Ning Hechu.

She suddenly realized something and raised her hand to protect Xie Lang: "Yes, Master Ning, please forgive me."

Ning Hechu raised his eyebrows with interest: "Your Majesty seems to be a bit timid. I heard that Master Wen is teaching him to read. I wonder how effective it is?"

It looked like the simplest casual conversation, and Wen Hemian smiled calmly: "Not bad, Your Majesty is late in learning to read, but you just need to pay more attention."

"Teacher Wen is the youngest No. 1 scholar, so it should be easy for him to teach." Ning Hechu didn't know whether he believed it or not. He retracted his gaze and said slowly, "I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."

Wen Hemian: "Master Ning, please take care."

It was not until they returned to the palace that Wen Hemian pulled the person who had been carefully following behind him to his front and looked him in the eye.

"I can't tell. Your Majesty is quite good at pretending."

If she didn't know that the brat was arrogant and looked down on others, she would have believed it.

Xie Lang froze for a moment, then stiffened his neck and said, “…That’s all!”

Wen Hemian burst out laughing.

Xie Lang glared at her.

So annoying!
