Jiu Ge’s Beloved Spirit

The next day, Qi Mingze, who had been waiting for a reply, received the reply that the new emperor refused.

The new emperor euphemistically said that it was the mourning period for the late emperor. As sons and ministers, they should be diligent and filial, abstain from rituals and music, refrain from eating meat and fish, refrain from being tainted by women, keep their six senses quiet, and recite sutras and pray for the late emperor.

Don't think about it anymore.

Therefore, from the perspective of etiquette and rules, he should not take his fiancée with him before he meets her.

Qi Mingze's request was rejected, and his wish to have a beautiful wife as soon as possible came to nothing.

Although Qi Mingze was not angry at being left behind, he did not dare to say anything.

After all, saving his life is important now. The imperial city is full of people from the Pei family, and he is really afraid that if the Pei thief thinks of it one day and wants to attack him, then there is no possibility for him to protect himself.

As long as the green hills remain, he won't have to worry about running out of firewood. His first priority now is to save his life.

Let’s wait until he calms down later.

Fortunately, although his fourth brother did not agree with him taking Yun Si away, he did not say that he could not take the woman next to him.

He also kept a lot of maids and concubines in his mansion. He arranged for them to go to the fiefdom first, and his fourth brother didn't say anything.

Ignore.

Half a month later, after packing his bags, he took Sun Muchen, who was dressed in plain clothes, in a carriage and left the imperial capital quietly and low-key.

Leaving the city gate was equivalent to leaving the Pei family's sphere of influence. It was also equivalent to leaving the knife that had been on his neck and could be cut off at any time.

After leaving the city gate, Qi Mingze sat on the carriage and looked back at the city gate that was getting farther and farther behind the carriage.

The city gate was guarded by officers and soldiers, and there was an endless flow of people coming and going inside and outside. The merchants lining up one by one were inspected by the city gate officers and soldiers.

Not far from the city gate, there were troops stationed. The ground was dark and the tents occupied a large open space.

From a distance, it looks like leeches have emerged and are densely packed with roots in the soil. They are countless and huge in scale.

These are all members of the Pei family now, and they are the trusted soldiers of that thief Pei Tingwen.

That dog thief, when he went to the battlefield in the early years, did not forget to win over people's hearts and draw a group of soldiers under his banner and become his own.

It is said that this trusted soldier did not listen to others, not even the emperor, but only listened to what Pei Ting heard.

He is loyal to the Pei family without any second thoughts.

Qi Mingze had heard of such a statement, but he didn't take it seriously.

He looked at the army stationed in the distance. Even though he was fleeing in a hurry and was a embarrassed loser, he was still satisfied and had a lofty vision.

He was thinking that one day, he would become the master of this army.

At that time, he will replace that thief Pei and become their only master.

They will be used by him, and he can use them to kill anyone he wants at a single command.

It won't be long.

That day will surely come soon.

He lowered the curtain and sat back in the car, feeling confident.

…

…

…

After Qi Mingze left, the guards in the palace quickly returned to their normal state.

The people in the palace, who were always worried about the changing situation, could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The new emperor came to the throne, and although his methods of dealing with things were not yet mature enough, he was more gentle, neither loose nor strict, and quite lawful.

The palace people sent away the previous incompetent emperor who was obsessed with having fun and crazy about practicing immortality and alchemy, and finally welcomed a normal emperor.

For a time, everyone in the palace was praying privately that nothing unexpected would happen.

I just hope that the new emperor can last longer without any other variables.
