Chapter 457: The Disliked Empress
Chapter 457: The Disliked Empress
Just when the court officials thought that Father Yu was going to put on the imperial robe and become emperor.
Unexpectedly, the three brothers of the Yu family directly pushed Yu Yan out and forced her to sit on the honorable throne.
The court officials below were suddenly in an uproar and were simply stunned.
If we talk about madness, you, the Yu family, are the craziest!
He unified the world so casually, and then he pushed his daughter to be the empress so casually. People who don't know would think that there are no male heirs in your Yu family, so the throne can only fall on women.
All the court officials were men, so how could they be willing to be inferior to women? All of them looked unhappy and were unwilling to meet Yuyan, the new empress.
Seeing this, Yu Yan was not angry at all. Instead, she looked at Yu Fu beside her as if relieved.
See, it’s not that she doesn’t want to, it’s that no one wants to. Why don’t we find someone else?
But Yuyan had just opened her mouth before a single word came out.
Yu Fu was already standing below Yu Yan, and spoke with a deep voice to those court officials who were not convinced.
"Yuyan is the new emperor recommended by my Yu family. She is also the main general who conquered the Jin Kingdom this time. She deserves the throne. If anyone has any objections, please ask my Yu family's millions of soldiers."
There was a lot of complaints from the crowd, but no one dared to step forward and provoke.
Upon seeing this, Yu's father took the lead and knelt down towards Yu Yan.
"Your Highness pays homage to the new Emperor. May our Emperor live long and long."
The three brothers of the Yu family also knelt on the ground along with their father Yu.
Upon seeing this, the court officials knew that there was no chance of turning the situation around. In addition, the Yu family was indeed very powerful now, so they could only submit temporarily.
So the court officials knew what to do and knelt on the ground, bowing and shouting to Yu Yan in unison.
"Your Majesty, long live the emperor."
“…………” The new emperor Yuyan’s face turned black.
I had thought they could still put up a couple more resistances, but I didn't expect this bunch of losers to surrender so quickly. They didn't have the magnanimity of loyal subjects who would never obey us until death.
The world had just been settled and there were many things to do. Yu Yan worked hard from dawn to dusk for a month before she finally dealt with all the affairs of the people and the country.
At this time, she was in a pavilion in the back mountain of Guangji Temple. The elegant and indifferent monk sitting opposite her was Lekong.
This time he met Kong at the border. He heard that the fighting was fierce, so he traveled thousands of miles to the border, wanting to chant sutras for the souls of those who died in the battle, so that they could ascend to heaven soon.
After the world was unified, he returned with the army.
At this time, Yuyan took the freshly grilled fish and put it into her mouth with great interest, but she didn't expect that she spit it out immediately after taking a bite, and said with disgust.
"This taste is wrong! Liaokong, haven't you fed the fish in the pond with sweet-scented osmanthus cake recently? It doesn't taste good to the fish anymore."
Liaokong looked at the grilled fish that Yuyan spit on the ground, then looked at the pond, and said in a gentle voice.
"Do you like to eat fish with the flavor of osmanthus? Then I will start feeding them in the afternoon. After half a month, the fragrance of osmanthus should remain in the fish. Then, come and taste it!"
“…………”It turns out that Lekong doesn’t have the habit of feeding osmanthus cake to fish now!
Alas, it seems I won’t be able to eat grilled fish with osmanthus flavor recently.
Looking at the unpalatable grilled fish in her hand, Yuyan could only nibble on it slowly, as if it was chewing wax, in order not to waste it.
When Liaokong saw this, he shook his head and laughed.
After Yuyan finished eating the grilled fish, Lekong handed her the mung bean soup.
Seeing her sipping the mung bean soup in small sips, Lekong's eyelashes flickered and he asked her softly.
"Have you found the person you are looking for?"
Yuyan paused while drinking the soup and shook her head slightly. Her mood, which was already not good, became even worse.
After finishing the mung bean soup in one breath, Yuyan put down the bowl, stood up and prepared to leave.
Liaokong asked another question at this time.
"Donor, are you going to continue looking for him? Don't you plan to look for others? I..."
"Master Liaokong..."
Yuyan seemed to know what Kong was going to say. She interrupted him softly, turned her head and looked at him intently, but her eyes seemed to be looking through him to other people.
After a while, Yu Yan sighed and said softly.
"Master Liaokong looks very attractive to me, but unfortunately... he is not the one for me after all."
Although he looks similar, unfortunately, he is not him after all.
Lekong stared at her for a long time, and finally let go, leaving only blessings.
"I understand. I will pray for you every day. May the Buddha bless you with peace and happiness, and help you find your soulmate soon."
"Thank you very much."
Yuyan nodded, said goodbye to Liaokong, and turned to leave.
Liaokong stood there and watched her figure silently for a long time...
In the meditation room of the old abbot of Guangji Temple, the abbot with white beard and a compassionate face looked at Lekong who had just entered.
"Liaokong, Master has thought about your last suggestion of returning to secular life. Since you have made up your mind, go ahead! In life, you must act willfully at least once, only then will your life be worthwhile."
Liaokong was silent for a long time. Thinking of Yuyan's expression just now, he finally just sighed.
"Master, I was wrong. Whether I return to secular life or not, the person in her heart will never be me. Since I can't have her, I should let it go as soon as possible!"
Buddha said: Let go of one thought and you will be free from all worries.
He tried hard and tried, but wherever she looked, she never saw him.
If that's the case, then he should let it go.
"Liaokong, I am very pleased that you think this way. You will take over the position of abbot in three days!"
"Yes, Master." Lekong clasped his hands together and nodded in agreement.
…………
After Yuyan came out from the back mountain of Guangji Temple, she unexpectedly met an acquaintance at the mountain gate.
At this time, a man at the mountain gate was looking at the woman beside him with a nervous look on his face and asked in a low voice.
"Xingyue, although I have been well treated when I joined the army this time, I am only a fifth-rank lieutenant now. I wonder if your father would agree that we can be together."
"Aliang, you have worked hard. But I want to tell you that no matter whether you have military merits or not, I will always stand by you and will never abandon you, no matter life or death. Regardless of whether my father agrees or not, my determination will not change." The woman's expression was gentle and her tone was firm.
"I know, but Xingyue, I want to marry you as my wife. I don't want you to suffer any injustice. If your father doesn't agree, don't worry. I will continue to work hard. I will definitely try my best to satisfy your father and then marry you in style."
The man's heartfelt words instantly moved the woman to tears.
"Well... I believe you. I heard that this temple is very effective. Aliang, let's go and draw a fortune!"
"it is good."
Yuyan looked at the loving couple walking past her, her eyes changing with every passing moment.
She looked up at the sky. It was as blue as a gem, clear and bright, without a trace of haze or clouds, just like her suddenly clear state of mind.
"System, escape from this world."
"...Ah? Host, what's wrong? Is this world no longer exist?" The system was stunned and asked in surprise.
"The mission is completed. If I don't choose to leave, am I going to stay and work like a slave? Let the original owner do this job! I believe she will become a more qualified empress than me."
"You...are such a dog!"
The next second, the two of them left this world.
And with Yuyan's departure, the original owner also returned.
