The emperor's plan: to rule the world

Chapter 1254 Extra Story: Time Without Traces

On the ninth day of October in the first year of Qinghe, Concubine Zhan gave birth to a son. After the empress heard the news, she decreed to make him the son of Prince Zhan and named him Jiuchen.

Fifteen years later, the empress, who had never been pregnant, decreed that Gu Jiuchen, the eldest son of the Prince of Zhan's Palace, would be the crown prince of Dayan, the next generation of emperor of Dayan.

The following year, the empress abdicated and the crown prince ascended the throne. The reign name was changed to Yongqian, and the following year was the first year of Yongqian.

16 years passed by in a hurry, Xiao Shizi grew into a young boy of Zhilan Yushu, the temples of the old man were stained with frost, and the years quietly climbed up the corners of his eyes, but the empress and Qin Shu were still the same as before, still the same It was that youthful look, unparalleled in style, as if time stopped passing in their best years, and they were frozen in the most beautiful moment.

In the Zichen Palace, the four kings who had not entered the imperial capital for more than ten years gathered together again, and the left and right prime ministers were never absent, as if they had never left since the day Qin Shu got married.

More than ten years later, the four kings have also married wives and had children one after another, but Si Zhuoyuan has never married a wife. He and Li Jin adopted a child together, and asked for the crown prince for that child.

Li Jin still had the same cynical look back then. Sitting on the rockery, he dangled one leg and said with emotion: "Time...time makes people old. Why don't you and the Empress not see each other?"

Under Si Zhuoyuan's death gaze, Li Jin swallowed the words "butcher's knife" abruptly.

Qin Shu said lightly: "Probably because I have been honored by His Majesty."

"Ah Jiu ascended the throne. Your Majesty and I will leave the imperial capital. We don't know when we will come back. Maybe we won't come back in the future. I invite you to come here this time because..."

"Tuo Gu?"

Chu Xuan took over his words with a low tone: "Your Majesty is clearly in his prime, why do you want to abdicate at this time?"

The imperial decree has been issued, and they have no room to refuse, but Chu Xuan still can't figure out, how could His Majesty want to abdicate at this time after staying well on the throne.

Qin Shu gave him a displeased look and said nothing. After all these years of marriage, Her Majesty the Empress is still the most important existence in his heart, but he will no longer feel angry because they didn't agree on a word.

In the second year of the Qinghe period, Chu Xuan took a leave of absence and went to Kyushu to marry Mu Yan, the younger sister of the head of the Mu family in Yunzhou, with a generous dowry. Now their two children have begun to enter the dynasty.

Si Zhuoyuan also asked: "If His Majesty Yudi and Your Majesty are gone, you and Your Majesty are also going to go or not return?"

"Do you really rest assured that you will hand over the world to a young man who has not yet been crowned?"

"Ajiu is smart, and his parents are also smart people. Your Majesty and I have nothing to worry about." Qin Shu said lightly: "Now Ajiu is still with Your Majesty, I will take you to meet him, and we will leave tonight. "

Si Zhuoyuan looked at him silently.

After a long time, he finally compromised: "Don't worry, we will help him well."

Mo Yan glanced at him: "Since we are leaving, let's go and have a look together, and also go to say hello to His Majesty."

Qin Shu smiled, got up and followed them.

Her Majesty the Empress was in the imperial study at this time, looking at the handsome young man in front of her, and handed over all the power in his hands: "Ah Jiu, these people, as well as the four kings and the left and right who are with your uncle now Prime Minister, you can trust them as much as you want, but trust does not mean defenselessness, do you understand?"

"Unless you have enough confidence to ensure that even if they betray you, you can still be fearless, otherwise you have to remember that you are the king, they are the ministers, and the king and the minister are invincible."

"Aunt Huang, I..."

The young man raised his head, with a look of reluctance: "Aunt Huang must leave? Just like the grandfather and grandmother, she doesn't plan to come back in the future?"

"of course not."

Gu Qingyi raised his hand and waved away the other people in the hall, said with a light smile: "Maybe we will come back, but no matter what, you are the emperor of Dayan, you need to be strong enough."

"How powerful your subjects are, you must be stronger than them."

"Your Majesty is right."

Qin Shu walked in from outside the hall. Over the years, he was used to calling her Your Majesty in front of others, and he would never question any of her decisions in public. Even if he had doubts, he would only raise them in private .

"Ah Jiu has to be stronger than all of them."

Gu Jiuchen turned around, saw Qin Shu and the others walking in, bowed slightly and stepped aside: "Uncle Huang."

He was brought up by Qin Shu and His Majesty, and he spent as much time with his father and mother as he did in the palace. The respect and intimacy seemed to be fused into his blood.

The left and right prime ministers and the four kings bowed their knees and saluted: "The ministers refer to the lord, and refer to your majesty."

It is no longer appropriate to call her Your Majesty after Her Majesty the Queen abdicated, and several people chose the title of Lord by coincidence.

Gu Qingyi smiled: "Ah Jiu will leave it to you."

"The minister is determined to live up to the entrustment of the Lord."

"Okay, it's time to get together and leave. It's not like Qin Shu and I won't come back in the future. There's no need to act so reluctantly."

Gu Qingyi put down the pen in his hand: "Manly man, be neat."

Feng Yu smiled wryly: "I just think it's too sudden."

Gu Qingyi smiled: "It's my fault."

She got up, raised her hand and patted the boy's head habitually: "Ah Jiu, you have to be healthy."

"Don't worry, Aunt Huang."

He took Qin Shu's hand and went all the way away, leaving the young man to communicate with those people inside. From the emperor to the courtiers, no matter who they are, they need to get used to it.

"Qin Shu, let's go to the queen mother and father."

Qin Shu hugged her, and looked down at her still black hair: "Go to Wuwang?"

"Yes, let's go to Wuwang."
