The Empress came ashore and beheaded the meritorious officials, forcing me to wear the yellow robe

At last……

After arguing for a while, they ended up parting on bad terms and going home.

Many things in the court are like this, they either keep arguing and then come to nothing, or they keep arguing and then continue.

Anyway, they won't be anxious unless it comes to a life-threatening moment.

But once the critical moment really comes, it is too late to cram.

"A mediocrity! A waste! A good-for-nothing! Such a scoundrel and a worthless person should not be associated with anyone!"

Ruan Daying walked out of the court, cursing.

He was worried about the current southern court. The threat of the barbarians was imminent, but the court had no intention of recovering the country. What was even worse was that other places were still in disarray.

If this continues for a long time, what can be done? Once the South is completely destroyed, how can the people of Qi face their ancestors?

The feeling of wanting to kill the thief but being powerless to do anything about it was really uncomfortable for him.

With this complex and tragic feeling, Ruan Daying returned to his residence.

When the servants in the house saw their master coming back, they naturally smiled and came forward to greet him.

"Master is back! But would you like some tea?"

"I don't feel like drinking tea!"

"But is there something going on in the court?"

"Why should a mediocre person bother himself?"

After saying that, Ruan Daying entered the mansion and came to the hall where he saw a letter.

Ruan Daying picked up the envelope and looked at it, his face full of confusion. There was neither a signature nor a recipient on it.

"Butler! What is this? Who sent it?"

The butler glanced at the items on the table and quickly responded, "This morning, the master went to the morning court. When I woke up, I saw this under the door. I think someone must have put it there. I dare not make any decisions on my own. I ask the master to make the decision!"

Ruan Daying didn't think much about it. He looked at the strange envelope and pondered for a long time...

He opened the envelope, looked at the contents inside, and his face changed drastically with fear.

"No... Impossible! How is it possible?"

The housekeeper who had been standing next to his master saw his master's crazy look and wondered if he was mentally ill.

Or was it that the master's brain was stimulated too much at the morning court today?

"Quick! Prepare the sedan chair! I want to go to Lianyun Temple!"

The housekeeper was stunned when he heard this. It was already this late, why was the master still going to the temple?

Just when he was about to ask something, Ruan Daying glared at him and said viciously, "Go now!"

"Yes!"

The housekeeper quickly prepared a sedan chair. Ruan Daying sat in the sedan chair, repeatedly reading the letter in his hands.

The most incredible thing is that he still has an imperial edict in his hand that asked him to recruit Gao Pan. When comparing the two, the handwriting is exactly the same!

Is it...

Could it be that the saint is still alive today?

With such a complicated mood, Ruan Daying quickly arrived at the "Lianyun Temple". Before entering, he first tidied his clothes and told the servants and housekeepers around him to guard outside! No outsiders were allowed to enter.

The butler said "yes"!

Ruan Daying walked in quickly and searched for a while, and finally saw the familiar figure at a burner where incense was being burned.

But I saw a man dressed in men's clothes, holding three incense sticks and burning incense.

"Gudong!"

Ruan Daying swallowed his saliva, feeling a little nervous. He looked at the man's back and was about to speak...

"Master Ruan, do you still have a heart of loyalty to the emperor?"

The other party turned around and said coldly.

When Ruan Daying saw that face clearly, he felt as if struck by lightning. The next moment, he fell to his knees with a thud and burst into tears: "Old... Old minister Ruan Daying, I kowtow to the emperor! This old minister's heart is as clear as the sun and the moon. This old minister will never forget for a single day that he is from Qi!"

This pilgrim is none other than the Empress dressed as a woman!

Ever since she escaped from Wang Yuanya and Yan Anxun, she has been dreaming of uniting the South and liberating the North.

What can I do? Dreams are just dreams, and even if I raise my pillow a little higher, they won’t become reality.

The Empress's idea was very ambitious, but the reality was very harsh. Her current identity...

I’m afraid it’s difficult to even see a county magistrate!

He even dared to call her the "late emperor", which was an even greater crime.

If she hadn't revealed her identity, the first officer she met would have had some conscience and would have just had her kicked out.

When the Empress announced this title...

I'm afraid he has died thousands of times!

It was precisely because he announced his own name that instead of the officials kneeling down in fear and trepidation to welcome him, he was beaten out.

The empress suddenly came to her senses, and then felt a sense of fear, thinking that her behavior was too rash.

To put it mildly, she was talking nonsense; to put it seriously, she might be in danger of losing her life by impersonating the "late emperor".

and so……

After reflecting on her past mistakes, the empress decided to write a letter to Ruan Daying, revealing her identity and asking him to meet at Lianyun Temple.

Oops! Good guy!

This is very empress.

It is inappropriate and very dangerous to rashly identify yourself.

As a result, he changed his approach and wrote a letter to identify himself, and the person he was looking for was the current Minister of War of the Southern Court.

The reason was very simple, he had military power! When he recruited Gao Pan, it was she who issued the imperial decree, and it was she who promoted Ruan Daying.

But I have to admire her, she is so lucky, this "all-in" bet was right!

Ruan Daying is indeed the most powerful official in the current southern court who has dreams of family and country and is loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

Now that they had met the empress, it was natural for the two to reminisce about the past. Ruan Daying then asked why Her Majesty had appeared in Lianyun Temple. And who was the "Your Majesty" that King Qin Li Jize had mentioned and supported?

It would be fine if this matter was not mentioned, but the Emperor of Children gets angry when it is mentioned!

"Li Jize! When has he ever saved me? He's just like the three traitors!"

When did Li Jize ever save me?

All he did was just like the three pseudo-regimes in the south, all wanting to hang a flag and be qualified to participate in the action of dividing Da Qi.

Ruan Daying sighed, the world is going downhill, people's hearts are not as they used to be! Even the dignified General Tiance has become ambitious, and the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism has been thrown out of his mind.

The Great Qi is in chaos now, it’s really in chaos!

Seeing that Ruan Daying didn't say anything and fell into silent reflection, the empress was stunned for a moment, then asked how Zheng Wu was doing now?

This sentence frightened Ruan Daying. He didn't know whether the empress really wanted to know about Zheng Wu or was asking this question on purpose to test his attitude.

So, Ruan Daying quickly said that he thought His Majesty had passed away! The country could not be without a ruler for a day, so he recommended Zheng Wu to the throne. If His Majesty returned, he would naturally be the emperor!

And, most importantly, there will be three people in power in the south! That's because the empress is missing and has no children. If everyone knew that Her Majesty was still alive, I believe this problem would no longer exist.

Hey! You're right...

When the empress heard this, she actually believed it!

As long as I come back, they will all recognize me, and the South will be united.

So the question is, how can she come back and continue to be the emperor?
