Traveling through the emperor, overthrowing the empress dowager at the beginning

In Taiqian Palace.

After Yang Dechang gave in, he appeared calm on the surface, but an indescribable feeling of frustration and helplessness welled up in his heart.

None of his right-hand men, the Grand Marshal and the Imperial Censor, are here now.

At this moment, facing Ye Chen alone, Yang Dechang felt a little tired.

In the past, even without evidence, he could have relied on his power and means to force Ye Chen to make concessions.

It only takes a few minutes to deal with a small Di ghost.

But now, everything is different.

Yang Dechang sighed inwardly.

It's only been over a month.

Everything has changed.

However, after feeling frustrated, the flames of anger began to burn fiercely in Yang Dechang's heart.

He glared at Ye Chen, the emperor whom he once regarded as a puppet. Now he dared to insult him like this. He could only retreat.

What a shame!

Yang Dechang clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms.

But he knew that he had to give in now so that he would have a chance later.

Now, he is like a wounded poisonous snake, temporarily hiding his fangs, lurking in the dark, ready to fight back at any time and take back everything he has lost.

Ye Chen looked at the speechless Yang Dechang below and snorted.

"Let's adjourn the court. If you have something to do, please submit the memorial after the court is adjourned."

The eunuch who was delivering the message beside him immediately said, "Dismiss the court!"

All the officials knelt down respectfully.

"Your Majesty, please leave!"

All the officials left the Taiqian Hall one after another.

At this moment, they acted very cautiously, not daring to be negligent in the slightest, for fear of causing the emperor's dissatisfaction.

Ye Chen forced Yang Dechang to give in, and the emperor's majesty was undoubtedly revealed.

All the officials were shocked.

After all the officials left, the Taiqian Hall gradually became quiet.

At this time, Su Mengjiao slowly walked out from behind Ye Chen.

Her figure is graceful and every step seems to carry an elegant rhythm.

She has a beautiful face, her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her eyes are like rippling autumn water, her skin is as white as snow, and her every frown and smile is full of unparalleled grace.

She was dressed in a golden phoenix robe, and her temperament was noble and domineering.

"Emperor, are you too confident? How can you possibly arm the people without spending a penny? Training an army is very expensive."

Su Mengjiao's tone revealed deep doubts.

She was well aware of Dayu's financial situation and the huge cost of training troops.

Ye Chen looked at Su Mengjiao with a firm and steady gaze, as if everything was under his control.

"Queen Mother, you don't have to worry about it. I know how to handle this matter."

Ye Chen's tone was calm, domineering and confident.

Hearing this, Su Mengjiao opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but seeing Ye Chen's determined expression, she swallowed her words back.

She thought about what Ye Chen had done over the past month and realized that he had never disappointed her.

It was difficult for her to interfere too much in Ye Chen's decision-making, so she could only watch the development of the situation silently from the side.

But then, she looked at Ye Chen with scrutiny in her eyes, and her tone was filled with a warning: "Your Majesty, and Madam Xue, you must be careful and don't do anything that goes against the dignity of the royal family."

As the queen mother, Su Mengjiao felt that she had the responsibility to maintain the reputation of the royal family.

She couldn't let Ye Chen do anything that would damage the royal image because of his feelings.

Hearing this, a hint of displeasure flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

His face darkened slightly, and he felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, but he said, "Don't worry, Queen Dowager, I have my own considerations."

"Ah."

Su Mengjiao looked at Ye Chen meaningfully, then turned and left Taiqian Palace.

When Ye Chen saw Su Mengjiao leave, he felt that this girl was meddling too much.

Although Madam Xue was his relative, as a time traveler, he did not care about the constraints of these feudal ethics.

He didn't care about his relationship with Madam Xue at all, but he also knew that the ancient etiquette was strict. Even if he was the emperor, he had to truly control the power before he could have a result with Madam Xue.

"Cheng'en, let Yun Fuyao come to see me!"

Ye Chen waved his hand and said.

"promise!"

Cheng'en immediately retreated.

Not long after, Yun Fuyao, dressed in a lavender brocade dress, walked into the Taiqian Palace.

She exuded a faint scholarly air, and her beautiful face was like a blooming orchid in the solemn Taiqian Palace, elegant and beautiful.

"My lord, I would like to pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Yun Fuyao knelt on the ground. As a counselor arranged by Ye Chen to work in the palace, she had already automatically assumed the role of a counselor.

"Be flat."

When Ye Chen saw Yun Fuyao, his tone softened immediately, and then he said seriously, "Fuyao, I asked you to come here today because I need your advice on something and to help me find some gaps."

Hearing this, Yun Fuyao's expression immediately turned serious.

"Your Majesty, please ask. I will tell you everything I know!"
