After Ye Chen returned to the palace, he sent someone to invite Qin Man into the palace.

When Qin Man arrived at Taiqian Palace, Ye Chen was sitting upright on the dragon throne, writing with a pen in hand.

"His Majesty."

Qin Man was about to salute.

"Mian'er, there's no need to be so polite."

Ye Chen waved his hand to stop her and waved towards Qin Man.

"Quick, come to me."

Ye Chen showed a friendly attitude.

Qin Man obediently stepped forward and took the initiative to pick up the inkstone to help Ye Chen grind the ink.

But after rubbing it for a few times, Qin Man's hand suddenly stopped, her pretty eyes slightly widened, staring straight at the bamboo slips in front of Ye Chen.

The words written by Ye Chen had a wild and heroic aura, which was very different from the words she had seen before.

After Qin Man read clearly what Ye Chen wrote.

She was soon engrossed in it and didn't dare to breathe.

When Ye Chen finished writing on one bamboo slip and started to get the second one.

Qin Man finally gasped and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what is this writing?"

"Three Character Classic, it's for children to read."

Ye Chen smiled slightly, picked up the pen and continued writing.

"Are they for children?"

Qin Man swallowed her saliva. The Three Character Classic seemed easy to recite to her, and seemed to contain a lot of truth.

She was very surprised, but seeing Ye Chen's focused expression, her heart was gradually filled with admiration.

She really didn't expect that Ye Chen was so talented.

This enlightenment theory is worthy of being passed down through the ages!

Before, Ye Chen said that if he wrote a book on enlightenment for children, Zhang Xu would change his mind.

Qin Man was still somewhat skeptical.

But now, Qin Man has understood that Ye Chen is not bragging.

"Somebody come!"

Suddenly, Ye Chen put down his pen.

"Give both of these bamboo slips to Qiu'er. Have Qiu'er send the imperial guards out of the palace to deliver the slips to Zhang Xu. Tell Zhang Xu that if he wants to know the contents behind them, he must agree to my terms and come to see me in the palace."

Ye Chen waved his hand, his tone full of confidence and dominance.

Cheng'en received the order and left.

"Mian'er, come on, accompany me to stroll around the Imperial Garden."

Ye Chen spoke to Qin Man in a gentle tone.

Qin Man nodded quickly.

Then, Ye Chen got up and took Qin Man to the garden.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west.

The glow of dusk sprinkled across the numerous palaces in the imperial palace, giving everything layers of golden edges.

The imperial garden is full of colorful flowers, but there is an empty space in the center.

In that open space, more than a hundred men were walking, sitting and lying.

The steps are steady and the commands are unified.

Xia Ju, Li Heng and He Shu, the instructors, were constantly giving orders and adjusting the formation.

When Ye Chen saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a sense of heroism in his heart.

Although the number of people training at this time was still small, the momentum undoubtedly gave people the feeling of a huge army.

Now with the military force of one hundred people at his disposal, Ye Chen is no longer isolated and helpless in the palace.

As long as one month later, these one hundred people can defeat the Imperial Guards, Ye Chen can directly reach out to the Imperial Guards and then carry out a large-scale blood transfusion.

At that time, he can truly take back some of the power of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, you are amazing. In just a few days, the men of the Marquis of Jing'an have been transformed."

Qin Man was very shocked.

In just two days, the changes in these hundred people were beyond her expectations.

After all, she was born in a military family, so she could still see that the momentum of these hundred people was much stronger than two days ago.

And all of this was undoubtedly done by Ye Chen.

"Oh, Meng'er, it's getting late. Please accompany me for dinner today."

Ye Chen was in high spirits and spoke in a gentle tone.

Hearing this, Qin Man nodded slightly, but a strange feeling arose in her heart.

After all, she had never eaten in a strange man's room before.

Even if Ye Chen is the emperor.

She was still a little embarrassed and acted a little shy.

But coupled with her pure temperament, she has a kind of beauty that is about to bloom.

Seeing this, Ye Chen's eyes widened.

"Mian'er, you are so beautiful."

Ye Chen exclaimed sincerely.

"what?"

Qin Man was very surprised, and her pretty face with a pure temperament quickly turned red.

After all, in ancient times when ethics and morals were strict, men and women might not even have met each other when they got married, and men were superior to women. Qin Man had never heard other men praise her for her beauty.

For a moment, she was shocked by Ye Chen's boldness, but she felt like her heart was beating like a deer. She didn't know how to respond besides being happy.

But at this moment.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother invites you to come."

Chen En's voice suddenly rang out.

Ye Chen was slightly stunned and immediately turned his eyes away from Qin Man.

"What does the Queen Mother want from me?"

Ye Chen frowned slightly. He was still thinking about having a meal with Qin Man and getting closer to her.

If the Queen Mother calls him away suddenly, how can we eat the meal?

"Your Majesty, this servant doesn't know."

Ye Chen could only look at Qin Man helplessly.

"Mian'er, I have someone bring dinner over. You can eat first and don't have to wait for me."

"Your Majesty, please go about your business. Don't let me delay your work."

Qin Man was well-behaved and virtuous.

She is quite understanding.

Ye Chen then left the Imperial Garden, got on a sedan chair, and headed to Kunning Palace.

In Kunning Palace.

When Ye Chen saw Su Mengjiao, Su Mengjiao was reviewing memorials with a focused expression.

"The emperor has arrived!"

Su Mengjiao looked up at Ye Chen. There was no expression on her pretty face, but she was majestic without being angry, showing the domineering and dignity of a superior, and her beauty was unparalleled.

"Queen Mother, what do you want from me?"

Ye Chen sat down in his seat carelessly.

Su Mengjiao was already used to his unreasonable behavior and just put down the pen in her hand.

"Emperor, I heard that you are recruiting again?"

"Ha, Queen Mother, I recruited people from the Jing'an Marquis' Mansion before in order to train loyal imperial guards, but this time, the people I recruit will be from the common people!"

Ye Chen smiled, then said seriously, "Queen Dowager, you should have heard that I was almost assassinated when I left the palace today."

"If I had a civil organization outside the palace, I wouldn't be so passive."

Hearing this, Su Mengjiao looked straight at Ye Chen, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

She really couldn't find any fault with Lin Ziyun's approach.

Even though she could see that Ye Chen was probably intentionally cultivating his own people and expanding his power.

"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to tell you. Today you asked Qiu'er to investigate who Yang Dechang was meeting with, and she has already found the answer."

Su Mengjiao's expression suddenly turned serious, and she asked, "Do you know who it is?"

"Queen Mother, is this Xia Houxian?"

Ye Chen expressed his guess.

".It's him."

Su Mengjiao looked at Ye Chen with a complicated expression.

The emperor became too smart.

"Xiahou Xian is a veteran minister of the Six Dynasties. Even though he's no longer in the court, he still holds a high prestige. His students and former officials are spread all over the country. He can be considered a leader in the scholar community. If he joins forces with Yang Dechang to cause trouble in the court tomorrow, the emperor will certainly face great difficulties."

Su Mengjiao looked worried.

"Oh, Queen Mother, now that I have made the decision, I am ready to welcome these people."

"It would be fine if Xiahou Xian didn't come. If he did, I would have dealt with him!"

Ye Chen was not afraid at all and was full of confidence.

"Your Majesty, Xiahou Xian is, after all, an old scholar in his eighties. You shouldn't push him too hard."

Su Mengjiao frowned slightly and said.

"I won't force him. I will have reason and evidence to refute him head-on, leaving this old man speechless!"

Ye Chen said very confidently.

Hearing this, Su Mengjiao saw him like this. Although she was still worried, she also had some strange feelings.
