Chapter 627: Calculation of Power, Kneel Down

just remain stagnant. They hadn't done anything wrong by capturing runaway slaves.” 。Then, someone bravely stepped forward and shouted loudly: “We are from the Li family, catching a runaway slave. We...Lord Qinghan felt particularly uncomfortable being looked at by Ye Wen. She was clearly just a girl in her teens, but why did she give him such immense pressure Although he had guessed that this person might be the future empress, those with spiritual power and aura were emperors, and the mere empress was just an ordinary person who could only live for sixty years. Why would she make him feel pressuredHe snorted coldly, expressing his disdain, but also a bit of courage to himself. 。When Ye Wen delivered the words, he didn't take them. Instead, he asked back, "Are you Ye Wen"

As soon as these words came out, Ye Si knocked on the table with a bang, "What do you mean Is the name Ye Wen something you can call Is there any respect for elders and juniors Are all of you people from Su Yuan like this An old woman cries, makes a fuss, and threatens to hang herself when called 'aunt', and a prince doesn't even know who the king is. What are these things!"

Quan Qingcheng and Quan Qingyun both looked at Ye Si, thinking: What wind has Ye Er blown in today This is too strange. Isn't this second sister the most annoying daughter of the Ye family How has she changed so much today

But no matter what, Ye Er entered the palace with Ye Wen today, and if you understand the situation, then it's someone on their side

Then Quan Qingcheng cleared his throat and said, "Second Sister, don't be angry. People from Su Yuan are like that, they don't understand etiquette. " 。"

'You don't understand how to learn!' Night Fourth Sister glared, 'Not understanding is a reason He was just born and doesn't know how to eat either, doesn't he also learn You can't just give up because you don't understand, if that were the case, he would have starved to death long ago >>>" 。"Ye Wen nodded, "Second sister is right, that's the truth indeed." 。“Turning his head to look at Wu Fu, he ordered, ‘Tell them to send two instructors from the National Academy over here to give Su Yuan, the crown prince, lessons.’” 。He turned around and left. 。"Night Fourth Sister!" The Prince Regent, Qin Ji, frowned and called out her name, intending to remind her, but also expressing his displeasure. 。Night Wen spoke, but she didn't bother to respond to his barb. Instead, she shook her head and said, "Since I’m sitting here and speaking with this attitude, the Regent King can no longer call me Night Fourth Sister. He must call me Empress Dowager." 。" You and Emperor Zun haven't even been married yet, Night Fourth Sister, don't you understand propriety" "Of course I do " 。"Ye Wen smiled, "But Your Majesty is impatient. A few days ago, he even called me 'Empress' in front of all the civil and military officials and the people of Lin'an. From now on, whenever he sees me, he will respectfully call me 'Your Majesty'." 。Well then, what's your opinion” "I..." "Third Highness" 。"Ye Wen said again, "It would be a bother for the Third Prince to go in person and fetch Lian Shi from Yanhu Palace. Have Lian Shi tell him personally whether the Emperor spoke those words." 。If the Regent still refuses, then please bring him to the Yanhu Palace to personally ask the Emperor. 。“Up the Flame Flower Mountain is easy, but down the Flame Flower Mountain is hard,” she reminded him. 。It is easy to enter Yanhuagong, but it is difficult to leave. 。"

Quan Qingyun got up and was about to leave when Quan Ji immediately stopped him. “Wait!” he said. Then, he got up. Although he seemed reluctant, he still bowed respectfully towards Ye Wenyan and called out, "Your Majesty!" 。Yè Wēn Yán ignored him, her gaze shifting back to Lóu Qīng Hán. 。Lou Qinghan initially didn't care, but gradually he became more and more flustered. In the end, he was so panicked that he had to stand up and follow Quan Ji together to pay their respects, also calling out: "Your Majesty, Empress..." 。“No, no,” Ye Wenyan smiled and shook her head. “Since you call me Empress, I must be properly greeted with a formal bow, not just a slight hand gesture.” 。We people of Northern Qi place great importance on etiquette. I, too, value propriety. Prince Suyuan is quite indifferent to such matters; being from a remote and uncivilized region, he lacks decorum. He can learn gradually. 。But Your Royal Highness, if you don't understand either, then you'll have to attend classes with Prince Suyuan. 。Just a moment, the Straight Talk from Guozixue is coming. You can all report together then. 。She looked at Quan Qingcheng again and pondered, "Do you also have to listen to lessons every day now" Quan Qingcheng nodded. "Yes, sister. Besides the morning court, most of the rest of the time is spent listening to lessons." 。The master at the Guozi Academy, even though I am now eighteen years old, I am still not allowed to take office until all my studies are completed. 。"Oh, I see!" Ye Wenyan thought about it again and said, "So this means that academics and managing the country are in conflict with each other." 。Well, that's good. Students should behave like students and not go to court without understanding their studies. That would be irresponsible of the Northern Qi Dynasty. 。"So the regent should be like that too!" She shifted her focus to the regent, "I suggest the regent should focus on his studies and put aside matters of state for now. Let the Emperor handle them himself. This will also give him a chance to gain experience." 。After you have finished learning everything you need to, then consider the matter of governing the country. 。" Quanji raised his head to look at her, "Your Majesty, are you trying to meddle in politics In Beiqi, the imperial concubines are not allowed to interfere in government." 。"

"Don't " 。"Ye Wenyan immediately replied, 'But not wanting to doesn't mean I can't. Do you understand what I mean'

Quen Ji's brows furrowed even tighter, 'Your Majesty the Emperor has also refrained from governing for these four hundred years...' "

That’s the same thing, he doesn't want to, doesn't mean he can't 。Just because he hasn't done it before doesn't mean he won't do it in the future. 。After all, the former Northern Qi court had never produced a regent before. Even when there were ministers assisting the emperor, none of them ever dared to place themselves above the emperor. 。Before this, I didn't really involve myself in these matters. Firstly, my relationship with the Emperor hadn't been publicly acknowledged, and I wouldn't have had any standing to interfere. 。On the other hand, I also think that the Regent King didn't do anything too outrageous. Besides, we are all family when the doors are closed. What happens within the family is our business. 。But today's matter is different. With outsiders present, the Regent Prince helps them squeeze the Emperor. Then I must inquire about it. 。" She smirked at Quan Ji, "If His Royal Highness thinks that a mere girl like me doesn't have the weight to speak here, then perhaps you should send someone from Yan Hua Palace to... " 。Or, if you feel even that is not enough, then please have the Emperor personally come. 。 。Ye Wen's words were thrown out one by one, and Quan Ji finally broke a sweat. Even Lou Qinghan, who was standing beside him, frowned. 。Quen Qingyun was going to Yanhuagong to ask for someone again. Quen Ji couldn't bear it anymore and knelt down with a thud, "Your Majesty, Empress..." 。“It seems that for the Regent King, governing the state is still the most important thing. He would rather give up his dignity than relinquish his power.” 。" The official dared not reply, only stammering apologies: "It was my fault. Please forgive this official, Your Majesty and Empress." 。" That's right. Get up! Your Highness, although we have met before, that was back when I was Ye Si Jie, so it wasn't a formal encounter. 。Today this counts as our formal meeting. From now on, whenever we meet, just follow this etiquette. 。"You don't have to compare yourself to others either. How others behave, I'll discuss with them myself. You are just you, remember that"

Quanji was so angry his teeth were grinding. Did he have to kneel to Ye Wenyan every time he saw him from now on Even on the street Where would his dignity be If outsiders saw this, wouldn't they laugh their heads off

But he only dared to think it in his heart and didn't dare to say it out loud. He felt a burning sensation on his face, but he didn't even dare to rub it. 。 Just as Ye Wenyan woke him up, he got up too. But just after getting up for a short while, he heard Ye Wenyan say again: "This is my second sister, you should meet her!" "Huh" Quanji was stunned. 。What do you mean This is your second older sister, and you want me to meet her She's just the second sister of a general's family. What's there to see If I have to meet her, she should come to me! You are the empress, not her. 。 “Didn’t I make myself clear” Ye Wenyan repeated, “The one sitting beside me is my second elder sister, also the second daughter of the General Mansion of Rank One. Come pay your respects!” “Why” Quen Ji's voice rose several octaves, "Sister Four, don't be too much!" "Tsk tsk! You are supposed to address her as Empress Dowager, how could you forget Is it because you’re getting old and your mind isn't as sharp anymore With a brain that can't even remember a simple sentence, how can you possibly assist in governing the state Perhaps you should just stay home and retire! I'll speak to the Emperor and get him to give you double the stipend. No more than that, or others will complain!” 。"The Empress is eloquent, but this King won't be swayed by your..." 。"Wang Ji hummed in discontent, “But for me to bow down to a court lady would be against the etiquette of Northern Qi.” 。Even if your family members soared to great heights with you, it wouldn't be right for them all to stand on my head. 。Even though the Li family had produced a queen, they did not become more prestigious than the highest-ranking officials of the current dynasty. 。Your Majesty, the Empress, please do not force your subjects, nor should you use your power to oppress them. 。"

What's there that's not in order " 。"Ye Wen said with a shrug, "Besides, how can the Li family compare to the Ye family How can Yong'an Palace compare to Yanghua Palace! My Ye family will do what the Li family cannot. No matter how much you disagree, there's nothing you can do about the Ye family." 。"Think about it, listen up! Today, I'll leave it at that. My sister, Nightwind's voice, even the Emperor would show her respect. So tell me, are you more honorable than the Emperor"

“I…that’s different!”

“That’s exactly the same thing! I am one thing, and it is one thing!" 。"Kneel before me!" As soon as those words left his mouth, Quanji felt a surge of pressure descend upon him. He had been standing tall, but with the weight bearing down, his knees instinctively buckled. He struggled to stay upright but couldn't hold on. With a thud, he fell to his knees...ng his displeasure. 。He said to Mu Shi: "You are sacrificing the interests of others to favor your second daughter. This is your family's business, and I have nothing to do with it." 。"But you stole F...
