You don't have to joke, you always keep your word. This kind of restraint is the restraint of the emperor's own dignity, and it is also the restraint of the people of the world on the emperor.
If the emperor can change his orders overnight, then what dignity is there?
So once the words are spoken, they must be implemented.
The Queen sighed, "Why should your Majesty be angry with Mr. Shen? You have been good friends for so many years. Mr. Shen must also know your Majesty's temperament. Besides, there is no man who does not want a career. Not everyone does. Anyone who can reach the position of prime minister casually, and whoever reaches this position does not want to leave a name for eternity. Prime Minister Shen just lost his temper for a moment, and maybe he will regret it when he wakes up."
The emperor knew that Shen Can would not repent so easily. He shook his head, too tired to say a word.
The emperor knelt down next to him, put his head on his lap, took his hand and touched her face.
His hands were cold, and her face was warm. She hoped that he could feel her tenderness and considerateness, and that she would never leave him no matter what these years.
The emperor touched her cheek and said in a hollow voice, "I am a little tired after so many years."
The queen smiled and said softly: "Your Majesty, why are you so tired? Others are not worthy of trust, but your own wife and children can still be trusted. I am a woman, and the harem cannot interfere with the government affairs, but Che'er is your Majesty's eldest son, so naturally You should lead your brothers to share your Majesty's worries and solve problems."
The emperor nodded, "Indeed, Che'er will still need more experience in the future to handle some current political affairs."
When the queen saw that her goal was achieved, she stopped talking about the issue. Instead, she held the emperor's hand and said, "Your Majesty, I will help you to lie down for a while. Take a rest and drink the soup when you wake up. You will be much better."
She felt that now was an opportunity to make the emperor relent and make Xiao Che the crown prince.
It should be a good opportunity.
But she also knew that nothing should be rushed, otherwise it would easily arouse the emperor's resentment. It would be even worse if she suspected Xiao Che had any ideas.
The emperor did not refuse. He stood up and was supported by the queen to go to the inner hall, where he lay down on a soft couch to rest.
The queen didn't let anyone else serve him, she just sat next to him and massaged his forehead. They hadn't had such a tacit understanding for a long time. The two of them were silent and didn't speak. It was like when the emperor first ascended the throne, he was surrounded by enemies on all sides and there was Shen Canding in the court. With the pressure on her, she was able to dance well in the harem, and with Xiao Xian's support, Da Qin was stabilized and no civil strife broke out.
Then I supported him all the way to where I am now.
The queen felt a little proud. At first, she felt that so many people were surrounding the emperor and there were so many ministers, but in the end, the one who accompanied him was actually her married wife.
Xiao Xian could refuse to be a prince for Shen Mingzhu, and Shen Can could disregard the emperor's dignity and dignity for the sake of her daughter, but as the queen, everything was done for the sake of royal dignity.
Even if he didn't immediately make his son the prince, she never forced him and always waited silently.
She is the one who truly loves him. Compared to Concubine Chu Chen, Concubine Li Hui, and Concubine Lian, she is the one who truly cares about the empire.
Those women only thought about getting something from the emperor, and never thought about how to be really good to the emperor and the court.
