Chapter 507: Voluntary Punishment for Guilt
As the so-called mother-in-law says that mother-in-law is reasonable, and the public says that the public is reasonable, everyone stands on the side that they both think is very reasonable, and they do their best to attack each other.
Feng Xiyan has seen the same scene many times, and he really can't raise any emotions to watch them argue.
Since returning to the palace, although there seems to be no change on the surface, and the style of acting is the same as usual, there has not changed much, but Xiao Dezi obviously feels that the emperor has changed, and he can't say where it has changed, but he faintly feels that something is wrong.
Just like now, although the emperor's expression is normal, there is no difference from usual, but he obviously sees that His Majesty's impatience that cannot be concealed is impossible to happen in the past, and the emperor is a person who likes to watch the excitement and does not think it is a big deal.
If she hadn't paid attention to the identity of the emperor, she couldn't wait to wave the flag and shout, and she couldn't wait for the ministers in the hall to fight, and she was watching with snacks on the side.
Moreover, since the emperor returned to the palace, his previous temperament of talking and laughing has changed 180 degrees, not to mention talking and laughing, not even normal talking.
Xiao Dezi himself also understands that he is the person of Shangguan Candle, and now that the emperor and the master are in such a quarrel, it is understandable that the emperor snubbed him, but, strangely, Mo Lan is the henchman she cultivated single-handedly was also snubbed.
These situations are reflected in the fact that the emperor often locks himself in the palace in a daze, or looks at the scenery of the garden in the imperial garden in a daze, or climbs to the city wall and looks into the distance in a daze, in short, he is either in a daze or on the way to a daze.
The whole person is quiet and almost eerie.
Of course, the problems that Xiao Dezi can find, Mo Lan can naturally find out, but it is one thing to find out, and it is another thing to be able to solve them.
After listening to Feng Xiyan for a while, he couldn't afford to listen to it, and he felt upset and irritable for a while, and his heart was annoyed, so he got up directly, and didn't look at the arguing ministers in the hall, turned around and bowed to the Empress Dowager Li behind the bead curtain.
"Queen Mother, this matter is indeed my fault, it is the son who is too reckless, although your old man did not mention it, but the son knows that your old man is angry, after all, when the son of the son left, it was indeed almost injured by mistake, at that time the son also said that when he came back from the palace to ask for your guilt, it is better to choose the day than to hit the day, the son of the minister will enter the temple today to reflect, and so on where is the reflection wrong, I am coming out, and please do not let the queen mother be angry with the son."
Everyone was surprised by the emperor's appearance, and they didn't understand how the emperor, who had always been at odds with the queen mother, confessed his guilt so quickly this time? Even the Queen Mother and her old man still had a coffin to discuss the crime, so he took the initiative to confess his guilt, and then invited himself into the temple to reflect.
This made the ministers on her side helpless, and the ministers belonging to the Empress Dowager Li were proud.
Empress Dowager Li was also surprised by Feng Xiyan's attitude of taking the initiative to admit her guilt, and before she could use the trick that she held back, she took the initiative to admit her guilt, so that she didn't know whether to be happy or unhappy.
"The emperor can't, although you are at fault first, but this matter is excusable, it can only be regarded as a merit and demerit, Your Majesty, please think twice."
Feng Xiyan turned his head and glanced at the minister who was still struggling to plead, and said sharply: "No matter what the reason for this matter, it is true that I am at fault first, and it is true that I have collided with the queen mother, and if I am wrong, I will be punished, I am the son of heaven, so I naturally have to take the lead, so I have made up my mind, and there is no need to say it again." ”
"Although the emperor is at fault first, the mourning family is indeed angry, but knowing the mistake can improve the greatness, the emperor has the heart to know the mistake, and the mourning family is very pleased, so there is no need to go to the Taimiao, this matter is just settled, there is no need to make such a serious trouble."
Seeing that Feng Xiyan lowered his stature, he took the initiative to admit his guilt, and took the initiative to retreat and envelop everyone's hearts, how could Empress Dowager Li let this kind of thing happen, so she hurriedly showed her magnanimity, for fear of being detained and unforgiving.
The emperor's departure from the palace this time has changed the views of many people, although the impact of a behavior will not be too large, but word of mouth, coupled with the fact that the emperor is paying more and more attention to the people's hearts, the two have changed their views in the hearts of the people openly and secretly since they did not deal with each other, this is a bad omen, and she must stop it quickly.
After Feng Xiyan experienced Shangguan Candle's deception and betrayal, he was disheartened, although he said such things heroically, but his heart was cold, he was not interested in anything, he was not interested, he was powerless to do anything, and the whole person was like a walking corpse.
Watching the quarrels of the ministers, she only felt bored, so she was too lazy to waste time with them, plus she wanted to be alone during this time, so she just took advantage of this to go to the Taimiao Temple to avoid these troubles, so she took the initiative to ask Ying to apologize to the Empress Dowager Li.
"Queen Mother, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, since I have done such a disobedient and unfilial thing, I will naturally be punished, so the Queen Mother does not need to say much, after the sons and daughters will figure out the mistakes made by the ancestors and ancestors, the sons will come out and ask the mother for permission."
Can Empress Dowager Li say for sure? She hopes that the emperor can be locked up more than anyone else, of course, she can't wait to raise her hands in favor, but if this matter is kept in private, she can show her truest thoughts unscrupulously, but now, in front of civil and military officials, how can she reveal her truest thoughts?
It's just that she is not very willing to give up such a good opportunity, she has suffered so many losses in the hands of Feng Xiyan, she can't wait to pull his tendons and pick his skin, this time she can move back a little, she naturally doesn't want to give up.
"Your Majesty, this matter is very important, and you still have to ......"
What is the Empress Dowager Li's thoughts, how could Feng Xiyan not understand, although her heart is like ashes, she is not stupid or stupid, so how can she not understand her entanglement and pain at the moment, of course, if this is normal times, she will definitely not let Empress Dowager Li get her wish, but she urgently needs a quiet place to quiet herself for a while.
Therefore, I had to make Empress Dowager Li happy for a few days.
"Queen Mother, I must lead by example, so I also ask the Queen Mother to become a son."
After speaking, Feng Xiyan bowed heavily to Empress Dowager Li again.
Since Feng Xiyan's steps have been given to this part, if Empress Dowager Li is fulfilling him, she is simply sorry for the fright she received that day.
"Since the emperor insists on this, the mourning family has nothing to say, so, come and send the emperor to Taimiao for reflection."
Empress Dowager Li made a final decision on this, and her ministers couldn't say anything they wanted to say, so they could only watch the emperor being sent to the Taimiao Temple to send or reflect.
