Chapter 705: The Empress Escapes and Picks Up the King of Qin
After bidding farewell to the Shen family, Di Ran and his family returned to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to revisit the old place.
The former King Jin is now the emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. Ji Rujin is a man who is not fussy about details, but generous and magnanimous. He is capable and decisive in his actions, and he handles government affairs in an orderly manner. With the help of several regents, he is a model of a wise monarch.
The former Beichen Palace still exists and is cleaned every day.
The return of Di Ran's family made this deserted palace lively again.
People... are still the same people, it seems like nothing has changed, yet something seems different.
……
Ji Rujin was very troubled.
In the past, she was free and happy, she could go wherever she wanted and do whatever she wanted.
But now...
"Your Majesty, today's memorial has not been approved yet..."
"Your Majesty, half of the relief funds for the flood in Jiangzhou are missing. Someone must have embezzled some of it. I beg Your Majesty to send someone to investigate thoroughly..."
"Your Majesty, Nanjia Pass hasn't paid the soldiers for half a year. If they don't pay the soldiers, I'm afraid there will be trouble..."
"Your Majesty is not young anymore, it's time to select a concubine..."
"Your Majesty, I have a son..."
"Your Majesty, I also have..."
"His Majesty……"
Ahhhh...
His Majesty is dead!
His Majesty is missing!
His Majesty is lost!
Don't look for His Majesty if you have nothing to do!
Don’t come to His Majesty if you have any problems!
Your Majesty can't hear!
Your Majesty, she is deaf!
Your Majesty, she doesn't want to do this anymore!
Ji Rujin was like a cat with its fur standing on end. She was furious and every day she was either on the way to being angry or on the way to being angry.
She was just a good prince, so why did she have to take on this job?
Isn’t it nice to sleep in?
Isn’t it nice to eat meat and drink wine with big mouthfuls?
What are the benefits of being an emperor?
This is not something a human would do!
She quits!
Ji Rujin was so angry that he threw down an imperial edict of abdication and ran away!
The next day, when the court was in session, the imperial edict was issued.
The ministers were dumbfounded.
The ministers were confused. The ministers were bewildered.
The empress ran away, what should they do?
Panic?
Don't panic!
Didn’t the empress issue an abdication decree?
Oh... yes, the empress abdicated.
Who will be the next empress?
dang dang...
Prince Ji Chang of Qin was the ninth daughter of Empress Jingzong. He was sixteen years old. He was gifted since childhood and was deeply loved by Empress Jingzong.
When Empress Ji Yao came to the throne, the Ninth Princess was still a baby who had just learned to walk and posed no threat.
After Empress Ji Yao came to power, she sent the remaining sisters who posed no threat to their fiefdoms, and the King of Qin's fiefdom was in Zhuozhou.
Although Zhuozhou was not as wealthy as the fiefdom of the King of Qi, it was not poor either. Moreover, the hometown of the King of Qin's biological father was in Zhuozhou. The King of Qin's biological father died early, and his relatives were also a family of virtue and kindness. The King of Qin's grandmother was also a great Confucian scholar in the area. It can be said that the King of Qin, as a baby, was also taken care of by his relatives.
The imperial edict was delivered to Zhuozhou, where the King of Qin, who had just returned from suppressing the rebellion, and his friends were fighting crickets.
Well, he is also a playful person, and is almost as good as Ji Rujin.
The throne descended from heaven
The King of Qin was also stunned
who am I?
where am I?
Am I dreaming?
The second son’s daughter didn’t want to be the empress, so she passed the throne to her, the ninth aunt?
real or fake?
How can it be so unreal?
hiss…
The King of Qin pinched himself and cried out in pain.
and so…
Not a dream?
It’s really… outrageous…
In this way, the King of Qin was pushed to the capital by a group of his subordinates.
After arriving in Beijing, he was washed and fed by the female officials... bah, and then pushed onto the throne.
This was probably the most easy and smooth female emperor to ascend to the throne in the history of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The first thing the King of Qin did after coming to power was to change the country’s name!
Because she felt that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty seemed to be cursed over the years. Bad things happened one after another, either floods or droughts, or plagues, rebellions, wars, and even the royal family seemed to be cursed.
Therefore, the King of Qin decided to change the country's name!
Although some ministers had objections, after several elders and King Beichen agreed, no one objected anymore.
At this point, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was changed to the Western Zhou Dynasty. Although the country's name was changed, the Western Zhou Dynasty was a continuation of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which is a fact that cannot be changed.
In January of the first year of the Yongle reign of the Western Zhou Dynasty, King Ji Chang of Qin ascended the throne as emperor.
During her reign, Empress Yongle worked hard to govern the country, was diligent in her administration, loved her people, and made good use of talents, creating a peaceful and prosperous era in the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is known in history as the Yongle Era of Prosperity.
