Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Ning Fan couldn't help but laugh angrily when he saw this straightforward memorial. Duke Zhou was really daydreaming this time.

These wealthy and aristocratic families will be the targets of Ning Fan's eradication in the future, so how can it be possible to establish a marriage relationship with these wealthy and aristocratic families?

However, Ning Fan was the emperor now, and he had to think about things from the perspective of an emperor, not from the perspective of a willful young man, so he hesitated.

The forces represented by the Zhou family are intertwined and control one-third of Dakang's economic lifeline. The mines and even the minting power banks in various places are in the hands of the Zhou family. If the Zhou family is offended at this time, the gain outweighs the loss.

There are two things Ning Fan has to do now. The first is not to refuse the Zhou family's marriage request, and the second is to stabilize the Zhou family.

Of course, the position of queen cannot be given to the Zhou family all at once. In Ning Fan's mind, the only person who can become his queen is Xiao Lingxi.

This position can only be reserved for Xiao Lingxi. As for the daughter of the Zhou family, it's not that Ning Fan feels unworthy, but that he has never seen this woman before, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with the Zhou family casually.

"I am very relieved that Duke Zhou always thinks of me. Let me leave this matter to the Ministry of Rites. I have no objection."

Ning Fan said calmly.

All the great clans were waiting to see Ning Fan's attitude. When they saw that Ning Fan actually surrendered to the Zhou family, they all felt excited and excited.

The horse is running, the dance is dancing...

Sure enough, there is nothing new under the sun, and the sun will not rise from the west. No matter who sits in this position, the family cannot afford to offend them.

Although Ning Fan was aloof, sitting on a pure gold dragon chair, the officials from the aristocratic families in the audience looked on with cold eyes and sneered in their hearts.

Everyone knows that Ning Fan is able to sit in this position and call himself a loner, and it is not because of the support of these aristocratic family members.

If everyone stopped playing and overturned the table, then Emperor Ning Fan was the bare commander. If nothing else, Emperor Dafeng was an example.

With Zhou Guogong and Zhou Bo taking the lead, the next thing would be easy to handle. Officials representing major civil law interests came forward one after another to start the memorial.

Some of these memorials were for seeking official positions, while others were for land fiefdom. In short, the new emperor ascended the throne and the new dynasty ushered in a major reshuffle of power. Various powerful families were also competing fiercely to occupy positions in the new dynasty. a place.

Of course, those who presented memorials and demanded benefits at this time were all fools, and in Ning Fan's eyes, they were all secretly included in the death list. However, there were some wealthy families, such as those with deep foundations, who asked for marriage, just like the Duke of Zhou, Uncle Zhou.

Some other wealthy families are making appropriate concessions. They want to please Ning Fan at this time in order to obtain more benefits in the near future.

These people gave Ning Fan a large amount of land, beautiful women, money and jewelry as an excuse to congratulate the new emperor on his accession to the throne.

These things seemed to be piled up like a mountain, but in Ning Fan's eyes they were worthless. He looked happy and cheerful on the surface, but inside he was as cold as a knife.

These aristocratic families used the wealth and anointing they collected to give to the emperor as benefits in exchange for greater benefits. In Ning Fan's view, these people were just borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha and doing business without a business.

Ning Fan was like a God's perspective, watching these people's performances coldly. In his mind, don't look at the troubles of these people. Huan would just wait to make a list later. As long as he established his team, all of these people would be The object it develops.

In Ning Fan's eyes, any three-generation aristocratic century-old family is a shackle that must be broken. If Dakang wants to develop, these shackles tied to Dakang must be broken. Although some of these people may be innocent, Ning Fan's But the butcher knife will not stop.

The day's farce was over, Li Chunan and a few young eunuchs carried Ning Fan to the palace on a walking chariot!

"Your Majesty, in order for you to get used to living here, everything is arranged as it was when you were in Prince Qing's Mansion. Everything is available here."

Li Chunan said respectfully.

The palace was warmed by the fire, and several palace maids stood there respectfully with lowered eyebrows.

Although Ning Fan was not very used to all this, he did not refuse. Once he entered the game, he had to follow the rules of the game, otherwise everyone would feel uncomfortable.

Whether it is Xina or Xiao Lingxi, they have no official status now. According to the etiquette system, they cannot enter the palace and live in it. Only after Ning Fan comes back and is officially canonized, can these women enter the palace and Ning Fan Where to live together.

"I heard that there is an imperial sister-in-law in the harem?"

Ning Fan couldn't sleep, so he casually asked Li Chuan, who was standing at the head of the bed.

Hearing Ning Fan's question, Li Chunan suddenly looked surprised. He looked at Ning Fan carefully and then cautiously replied: "It is true that I heard that Concubine Rong was the concubine of the late emperor, but she was not related to the late emperor. To consummate the marriage, Your Highness, do you want to meet Concubine Rong? I, the life-saver, invite her here."

Ning Fan immediately knew that Li Chuan was wrong about what he meant, and quickly waved his hand and said: "What will people think when they invite people here in vain? They think they really want to do something wrong. Let's talk about it tomorrow. According to etiquette, I You should pay a visit to this royal sister-in-law."

Hearing what Ning Fan said, Li Chunan let out a long breath. He originally thought that Ning Fan really had any thoughts about the imperial sister-in-law. If he really had such thoughts, then this matter would be very difficult to handle. But hearing that Ning Fan's heart was open and aboveboard, Li Chunan felt relieved.

Seeing that Ning Fan stopped talking, Li Chunan said cautiously: "Your Highness, after you ascend the throne, according to the etiquette system, you can prepare for the draft. Not only can the draft expand the harem, but the concubines can also expand the palace maidens. Everything can be done according to His Majesty's preferences. .”

"As for the late Emperor's concubine Rong Fei, His Majesty can just issue an imperial edict for her to choose a cold palace to spend the rest of her life."

"Let's talk about this matter after we see the imperial sister-in-law tomorrow. I really want to know why the imperial sister-in-law was left alone in the palace instead of being taken away."

Ning Fan's lips curled into a sneer.

"Slave, I heard that Concubine Rong was at odds with the late Emperor. The late Emperor even sent someone to assassinate her before she left..."

Li Chunan said cautiously.

"Then I'm even more curious. Why is this royal sister-in-law at odds with my royal brother?"

Ning Fan fell asleep with doubts. When he woke up early the next morning, he immediately went to Fenglin Palace.

Concubine Rong, who had received the news in advance, was already waiting at the door of Fenglin Palace. When she saw Ning Fan approaching, she quickly knelt down on one knee.

"My concubine, Mu Wanrong, pays homage to Your Majesty."

Concubine Rong was kneeling on the ground and couldn't see her face clearly, but looking at her beautiful figure, Ning Fan felt a little trembled in his heart.
