Empress, she just wants to have a career

Chapter 503 The Bai family became a third-class family
The reason is indeed sufficient, but still far-fetched.

As Bai Guifei said before, if she wanted to do something, she would not show such a tell.

But the matter has come to this point, and it doesn't make much sense to continue the investigation.

Ye Mingze came to the palace just to ask for an explanation, since Concubine Bai had already backed down, he could take a step back temporarily.

It's just that from then on, the relationship of many years was completely broken.

"Your Majesty, when the truth comes out, it's up to you to decide." The imperial concubine is a smart person, knowing that this is a special moment, if she takes the initiative to punish Bai Guifei.

In the future, the emperor would think of Concubine Bai again, thinking of Concubine Bai's kindness, wouldn't it be that he wanted to trouble her.

Therefore, it is the best choice for the emperor to decide how to punish himself.

The emperor looked at Concubine Bai. After all, he had been in love for many years, and he didn't want Concubine Bai to end up too badly.

But Ye Mingze's status is special, if he doesn't give Ye Mingze an explanation, this matter can't be justified.

After thinking for a while, the emperor said, "The noble concubine Bai is not worthy of the position, so she will be reduced to a promise. In the future, without my permission, she will not be allowed to step out of the palace! As for the Bai family, they will be reduced to a third-class family, and their children will not be allowed to enter the court for a hundred years." For an official."

This kind of punishment, whether it is light or not, is not serious.

Concubine Bai was very pleased to hear this result, and this can be regarded as His Majesty's lenient treatment of her.

It's just that the Bai family has changed from a first-class family to a third-class family in a short period of time. The gap is too great.

But after thinking about it, the status of the Bai family seems to be a second-class family, but it is actually almost the same as a third-class family.

Third class is third class, as long as you are alive.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, and my concubines must strictly abide by their duties."

Concubine Bai knelt down to thank again.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Ye Mingze didn't stay any longer.

He said coldly, "If there's nothing else, I'll go first."

"Wait a minute, I have something to ask you, the rest of you should step back first." The emperor said calmly.

The imperial concubine and the others had different thoughts, but they didn't say any more.

The imperial study room fell into an eerie silence.

Ye Mingze was busy going back and didn't have time to waste with the emperor, so he asked directly, "What's the matter, just tell me."

The emperor let out a long sigh, and said the tacit truth before, "After your leg is healed, it will definitely not be the same over there, maybe they will come to urge you to go back, what do you think?"

"It depends." Ye Mingze responded lightly.

He has no interest in that place.

It's all about power struggles and intrigues.

If it was before, he would definitely not be afraid, but now with Su Liangwei, he seems to have a weakness.

I can't bear to see her hurt, I can't bear to see her wronged.

However, whether it's him or Su Liangwei, the Liuhuo Country is really too small.

Their future should belong to a wider world.

"You have always had an idea, and you must know what to do. I won't say anything superfluous, and only one sentence, if your life is really unsatisfactory there, you can return to the Fire Nation.

Although it is not big here, it can be regarded as your safe haven. "

The emperor's words are very nice.

But Ye Mingze also knew that the emperor wanted him to come here just to sit in Liuhuo Kingdom and prevent him from invading.

As long as Ye Mingze is here, even those powerful empires will not dare to attack Liuhuo Nation.

So regarding this question, Ye Mingze did not answer, but shifted to ask, "Is the crown prince confirmed?"

The position of Prince of Liuhuo Country has always been vacant, and both the First Prince and the Second Prince are among the strongest candidates.

Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, Ye Mingze is also the best candidate. Even if his legs are disabled, he is sure to win.

Now that Ye Mingze's leg is healed, everyone's eyes will turn to Ye Mingze's side.

This is a big trouble for Ye Mingze.

In fact, the emperor has been hesitating about this question, not knowing who to choose.

Several sons are excellent and self-motivated.

The most prominent ones are of course the eldest prince and the second prince. Before the empress was thrown into the cold palace, the emperor still had his heart for the eldest prince.

But after the eldest prince did things again and again, the emperor finally hesitated.

First of all, the eldest prince has the advantages of Longyang. For an emperor, this is obviously not conducive to the reproduction of offspring and the spread of branches and leaves.

Secondly, the Fang family that the eldest prince relies on has too much power and ambition.

If the throne is handed over to the Eldest Prince, and the Eldest Prince is not interested in women, in the end it may only become the property of the Fang family.

At that time, the Ye clan of the Liuhuo Kingdom will probably change their surname to Fang.

He, the emperor, was under the Nine Springs, and seeing the mess the Fang family had made in the Liuhuo Kingdom, he might not rest in peace, and wanted to jump out of the coffin and beat people.

The second prince also has some problems.

First of all, the second prince's arm is gone, and he is disabled, which is not conducive to the prince's best image.

Secondly, the Zhou family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it is dominated by women. If the second prince becomes the emperor, there may be many problems for Liuhuo Nation.

But the other princes are not suitable.

The Ninth Prince is obsessed with cultivation, while the Tenth Prince is worthless, more than love for children.

Think about it carefully, if Ye Mingze is really his own son, and not a fake prince who was forced to be fostered by the empire in his name in order to cover up something, how good would it be?

Maybe Ye Mingze can lead Liuhuo Nation to a new height.

At that time, great achievements for thousands of years will last forever.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as an if.

In the end, he could only choose between the First Prince and the Second Prince.

"Boss or second child, which do you think is more suitable?" The emperor directly asked Ye Mingze for his opinion.

"None of them are suitable." Ye Mingze patiently analyzed the emperor for the first time, "The power behind the first prince is too complicated. Although the second prince is simpler, she came from the battlefield. The killing is too heavy. Kind of merciful."

Being an emperor requires not only political skills, strength, and backing, but more importantly, a benevolent heart to love the people.

In this way, the imperial hegemony can last for a long time.

Otherwise, it is like a flash in the pan and will be replaced soon.

In particular, now that the Liuhuo Nation is being coveted by other countries, it is extremely difficult to survive.

"Is there still time to cultivate a benevolent heart?" The emperor still paid more attention to the second prince, with some expectations in his heart.

Ye Mingze responded with a faint smile, "This kind of thing cannot be explained clearly in a few words, all this can only depend on the fortune of the second prince."

"I hope, he can have a good luck."

"Actually, I have an idea." Ye Mingze is a very grateful person. He has stayed in Liuhuo Country for many years, and he still has certain feelings. I hope that after he leaves, the weather will be smooth and safe here.

This can be regarded as his last act of kindness here.

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately asked with anticipation, "What's your idea? Come and listen!"
