Outside the main hall,
When Changsun Wuji saw his sister being invited into the main hall by a maid, he was very happy.
Queen?
The maid just now called his sister "Empress."
if so,
His sister, Changsun Wuhou, may one day become the empress of the empire.
Fang Xuanling looked at Changsun Wuji and said with a smile,
"Lord Changsun, it seems that our new emperor still cares a lot about the Empress."
Fang Xuanling also knew about Su Chen and Empress Zhangsun's affair.
Even the Empress was imprisoned in the palace for more than a year.
This is also because of Su Chen.
Furthermore, Su Chen arrived at the palace a day earlier and agreed to all of Li Shimin's harsh conditions before taking Empress Zhangsun away. All the ministers were well aware of this matter.
Changsun Wuji stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Lord Fang, my sister met Marquis Wuwei a few years ago. As long as my sister can live a good life in the future, that's all that matters."
"Her Majesty the Empress is gentle and virtuous; Marquis Wuwei will surely treat her well."
"Hopefully!"
Inside the main hall of the palace,
When Changsun Wuhou and Shang Xiufang entered the main hall, they looked at Su Chen with utter speechlessness.
The throne was perfectly fine.
Su Chen was lying across the throne, even putting his feet up on the armrest.
Su Chen saw Changsun Wuhou and Shang Xiufang arrive.
He hurriedly waved his hand and called out,
"Wuhou, Xiufang, you've arrived! Come here quickly. You've never sat on the emperor's throne before, have you? Come and sit down."
Shang Xiufang shook her head and refused.
“This is the emperor’s throne; we dare not sit on it.”
Su Chen pulled Changsun Wuhou and Shang Xiufang to sit down.
The emperor's throne was quite spacious.
Otherwise, there really wouldn't be enough room for three people.
"What are you afraid of? The Tang Empire will belong to our family from now on. You can do whatever you want. It's just an emperor's seat, you can sit on it however you like."
Changsun Wuhou and Shang Xiufang were both speechless upon hearing Su Chen's words.
but,
They were very happy that Su Chen could say that.
Our family?
Family?
This simply doesn't exist in the royal family.
There is no kinship in the royal family.
Throughout history, royal families have been scheming against each other and even hostile to one another. For example, Li Shimin killed his brothers for the throne, and Li Chengqian killed his brothers and even attempted to kill his father for the throne.
Su Chen embraced Changsun Wuhou's voluptuous waist and said,
"Wuhou, I will entrust the Tang Empire to you from now on. You will become the Empress of the Tang Empire!"
"What? How is this possible?"
Changsun Wuhou was startled when he heard Su Chen's words.
Queen?
Su Chen actually made her an empress?
How is that possible?
How can a woman be an empress?
Has Su Chen gone mad?
Shang Xiufang looked at Su Chen in surprise. She hadn't expected Su Chen to say that. What exactly was this bastard trying to do?
Queen?
Doesn't Su Chen want to be emperor?
Su Chen shook his head and explained.
"What's impossible, Wuhou? You don't know yet, do you? Empress Xiao will ascend the throne at the end of the year, and you can also ascend the throne at the end of the year. In this way, Empress Xiao will be the Empress of the Sui Dynasty, and you will be the Empress of the Tang Dynasty."
Changsun Wuhou was even more surprised when he heard Su Chen's words.
"What? You're making Empress Xiao the Empress of the Sui Dynasty? What's going on?"
Su Chen kissed Changsun Wuhou and continued speaking.
"That's right, I still have things to do in the martial world, so now is not the time to be emperor. After I finish what I need to do in the martial world, I will merge all the empires I have conquered, and then I will ascend the throne and become emperor."
Changsun Wuhou and Shang Xiufang heard Su Chen's words,
They all looked at Su Chen helplessly.
Su Chen not only made Empress Xiao the Empress of the Sui Dynasty, but now he is also making Changsun Wuhou the Empress of the Tang Dynasty.
One empress isn't enough?
Now they want to install another empress?
Is Su Chen perhaps seeking a carefree life in the martial world? Is that why he appointed Empress Xiao and Empress Zhangsun as empresses to handle state affairs?
After talking with Changsun Wuhou and Shang Xiufang for a while, Su Chen then invited the ministers outside the main hall to come in.
The Tang Empire needs to stabilize quickly, and he still needs to deal with the Southern Song Dynasty. That old woman, Li Qiushui, has messed up his plans, and Su Chen still has to clean up that mess.
At this time,
All the ministers bowed to Su Chen as they entered the main hall.
"See you Lord Marquis!"
"Everyone get up!"
"Lord Xie?"
After the ministers in the hall stood up,
They were all very surprised to see Empress Zhangsun and Su Chen sitting together on the throne.
Su Chen looked at the people in front of him and gave the order.
"Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and Li Zongdao, the five of you will form the cabinet. You can discuss and handle minor matters within the Tang Empire, while major matters will be handled by Empress Changsun."
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Changsun Wuji and the other four immediately bowed.
They hadn't expected Su Chen to be so direct, not even asking them if they were loyal, leaving them no chance to answer their prepared questions.
but,
Why did Empress Zhangsun have to handle such important matters?
What about Emperor Su Chen?
Shouldn't the emperor be the one to handle the major events that happen in the empire?
Thinking of the situation of the Tang Empire, Su Chen continued, "In addition, the Sui Dynasty will provide one million dan of grain and five million taels of gold. Your cabinet can handle these funds yourselves."
0 ...... .......
"Thank you, Lord Marquis!"
After Su Chen finished dealing with matters within the Tang Empire,
He then looked at Cheng Yaojin and gave him instructions.
"Cheng Yaojin, you issue an order to the generals and troops on the border of the Tang Empire: all generals and troops must submit, or they will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
Cheng Yaojin hurriedly bowed and said...
He had already sent these messages.
If Li Jing and Qin Qiong, those border generals, knew what had happened in Chang'an, Cheng Yaojin believed that they would all submit to Marquis Wuwei, Su Chen.
