Chapter 1563: Is the Emperor Crazy?

At this time, the magnificent main hall of the Imperial Palace.

Carved beams and painted pillars, golden dragons dancing, imposing and majestic!

A woman wearing a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown covering her appearance sat high on the dragon throne.

She was the Empress of this Eastern Tang Kingdom, but she had been in power for eight years!

In the eight years, she fully exerted her imperial talent, governing the world in an orderly manner, with the people living and working in peace and contentment, and the national strength becoming increasingly strong.

So much so that the people of Eastern Tang called the Empress the Female Emperor, and even the civil and military officials didn't mention the Empress in private, only the Female Emperor.

And the sovereign Xu Que had almost become an invisible person, ignored by no one, mentioned by no one.

From this, it can be seen how tightly the Empress controlled the power.

However, no matter how well the Empress governed the country, and no matter how peaceful Eastern Tang was, it was ultimately just a remote small country.

Eight years were far from enough for a small country to grow into a behemoth, not to mention having to face invasions from major powers from time to time.

Two years ago, the Qin Kingdom, the largest country in the Nine Provinces, launched a war, seeking to unify the world.

After two years of crusade, only Eastern Tang and Feng Yu remained, located in remote areas, so they were temporarily not ruled.

But the ministers were still panicked all day long.

Today's morning meeting was mainly centered on the discussion of this crusade.

The ministers presented their advice one after another, but no matter what they said, the Female Emperor had no reaction.

"Strange... why does the Empress have no reaction?"

"Could it be that she fell asleep? Shouldn't be..."

"I heard that the Empress returned to Feng Yu Kingdom a few days ago; I'm afraid she already has a plan in her heart."

The ministers discussed in whispers, but didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of disturbing the wise Female Emperor on the throne.

Xuan Yuan Wanrong sat on the dragon throne, her face hidden behind the pearl curtain of the phoenix crown, thinking quietly.

After listening for so long, she had basically figured out her situation.

A generation of Female Emperor, a useless husband, no internal worries yet, serious external troubles.

Simply put, if she didn't do something, the destruction of this country was just a snap of the fingers away.

What Xuan Yuan Wanrong didn't expect was that she was also dragged into this trial.

"Sovereign Xu Que? That guy entered here with me?"

Xuan Yuan Wanrong frowned deeply. Logically speaking, everyone's beams of light were different; why were the two of them together?

Could it be the influence of the Imperial Physician Heavenly Book again?

Or was it that Xu Que broke the restriction at the last moment, and was thus dragged in?

After clearing her thoughts, Xuan Yuan Wanrong sat up straight, emitting an indescribable power.

She was originally an outstanding disciple of the Heavenly Palace Academy, the Chosen One, and had been in a high position for a long time; driving a mere imperial position was effortless for her.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Just as she was about to speak, a sharp voice suddenly rang out outside the hall door.

The Emperor?

Xuan Yuan Wanrong's gaze sank. Before, she had learned from the ministers that the sovereign of Eastern Tang, Xu Que, was an incompetent emperor who didn't know the overall situation, was frivolous and jumpy, and had no talent.

Such a temperament was exactly the same as that guy.

She had already thought about it in an instant; when he came in, she would find a place to exile that guy, so as not to get in her way.

The ministers were also suspicious and discussing.

"Did I hear wrong? The Emperor is coming to the morning meeting?"

"Heaven has eyes, the Emperor is finally willing to participate in state affairs!"

"Shh... you forgot eight years ago, the Emperor presided over the morning meeting, and the result was what it became?"

Although little Xu Que was incompetent, among the officials, there were still some stubborn old men who insisted on the orthodoxy in their hearts and silently supported the imperial family. At this time, naturally, some were happy and some were worried.

The sound from outside the hall came from far to near, but upon hearing this sound, the ministers frowned again.

"I don't give a damn! I am the Emperor, how could I be afraid of a woman?"

"Get lost! Don't pull me!"

"I warn you not to pull me; I am now going to take back the lost imperial power. If you dare to stop me again, be careful that I cut off your head!"

"What? The Imperial Seal is with the Empress, and only she can give orders? This is outrageous! Today I will restore the husband's authority!"

The ministers looked at each other.

They had already heard that the one outside was their Emperor, Xu Que, who hadn't attended the morning meeting for eight years.

But the problem was, when did the Emperor become so arrogant?

Although Xu Que had always done some rebellious things, in fact, he was like a mouse seeing a cat when he saw the Empress, turning around and running away, avoiding it.

At most, he would say some harsh words in private, and never dared to confront her head-on.

The ministers of Eastern Tang were already used to it, and suddenly hearing such arrogant words, they were shocked.

"What happened to the Emperor?"

"It's over, the Emperor has gone crazy, hurry and call the Imperial Physician!"

"Am I dreaming? Is the Emperor so brave today?"

Amidst the discussion of the ministers, a young face appeared in the main hall, with a rebellious smile at the corners of his mouth, and his walking posture was extremely arrogant.

That was their Emperor, Xu Que!

Behind Xu Que, the young man who stood under the wall earlier, the current Minister of Rites Gong Qiwei, followed in with an embarrassed face, bowing to his colleagues from time to time.

The surrounding ministers looked at Gong Qiwei with strange expressions, winking one after another.

What's the situation? Is the Emperor crazy?

Gong Qiwei was sweating profusely, waving his hands repeatedly, his heart suffering unspeakably.

You ask me if he's crazy?

How the hell would I know!

I just wanted to bring the Emperor back; heaven knows he suddenly rushed straight to the main hall in an arrogant and domineering manner!

I couldn't stop him even if I wanted to!

Xu Que walked among the ministers, his face full of confident smiles.

Even though he couldn't use True Essence here, he was still a Great Luo Golden Immortal, the Emperor of the country.

Being arrogant was not a problem at all.

He walked a few steps to the side of the dragon throne, looked down at the Empress sitting there, and put on an enthusiastic smile: "My dear Empress, I have awakened; it is time to return the throne to me."

He had already thought about it; once he drove the Empress down, he would lead his troops north, fight the princes, and establish an eternal dynasty.

Finally, amidst the worship of ten thousand countries, he would successfully pass the test, become an immortal and fly away, leaving behind a legendary story.

Just thinking about it made him feel full of style!

The Empress didn't seem to care about his words and said indifferently: "Are you sure?"

Hmm?

Why does the voice sound a bit familiar?

Xu Que was stunned, raised his hand, and grabbed at the Empress's phoenix crown.

The ministers saw this scene and were all stunned.

The Emperor is super brave today!

Actually daring to provoke the Empress in public!

"Empress, we haven't seen each other for so long, I miss you so much... damn!"

Before he could finish, a scream suddenly echoed in the main hall.

Xu Que looked in horror at the familiar face in front of him: "The Empress is you?"

Under the phoenix crown, it was Xuan Yuan Wanrong!

Only then did she slowly raise her head, her face as cold as frost: "Why can't it be me? It's you... why are you here too?"

This sentence was like a bolt of lightning flashing through Xu Que's mind.

Only then did he react.

He had indeed entered the same illusion as Xuan Yuan Wanrong at the last moment.

After two seconds of silence, Xu Que turned and left.

"Sorry to bother you, goodbye!"

"..."

The ministers nodded slightly.

Hmm... it's this taste; the Emperor isn't crazy!
