Chapter 627 When Princess Heqin Becomes the Supreme Empress (End)
The other people's eyes immediately glanced over.
When I saw it was Ati, I couldn't help but roll my eyes.
As the only Donghu person in the country to participate in the imperial examination, Ati's exotic face has long been famous among students.
They are all proud of this.
Donghu people also came to their country of Kang to take the imperial examination and become officials, which shows that their country of Kang is charming.
Not long after, the results of the palace examination came in, and Artie was ranked at the bottom of the second-tier list.
Ati, "..."
Attendant, "Sir, look, let me tell you. I asked you not to blow up the scandal, but luckily you are on the list, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing."
Arti glared at him, "Those reviewers have no vision."
"I heard that His Majesty also personally participated in reviewing the papers this time, and the top three were decided by His Majesty."
Ati, "..."
So at the Qionglin Banquet, Ati, who was the last one, stood at the back.
Even though he was tall, he was so crowded by the huge crowd that he couldn't even see his head.
After the Qiong Lin Banquet was over, he was finally brought to Gu Mo by Fu Zhu.
After studying the Central Plains culture for so many years, he has learned what superficiality is. After bowing to Gu Mo in a proper manner, he stood aside and did not ask Gu Mo to find any mistakes.
Gu Mo didn't know what to say anymore and just sighed for a long time.
"Do you think it's worth it?"
Atty, "If I didn't feel it was worth it, I wouldn't do it."
He crossed his hands and hung them in front of him, "If you don't let me talk about love with you, I won't talk about love with you, and I won't talk about it in the future, not even a word."
He can also be a minister, and he can do it better than anyone else.
Gu Mo, "..."
Ati didn't talk about it, but for many years after that, he acted like a courtier, devoted himself to Gu Mo and never overstepped his bounds.
Until Gu Mo abdicated.
Originally, those courtiers thought that Gu Mo would never hand over the imperial power as easily as he promised to Emperor Lin since he was in great power.
To be honest, most of the far-sighted courtiers felt that there was nothing wrong with Gu Mo continuing to be emperor.
But there are still some conservatives who insist that women should not be in power.
As long as the word "woman" is attached to it, no matter how great your achievements are, it's still nothing.
Even though Gu Mo has worked hard to improve the woman's situation over the years, this is not the Weilong she once ruled.
Here, women have been restricted to strict rules for nearly 800 years. She thought that it would be impossible to change 800 years of history in just a few decades.
She can only say that she has worked hard, and the direction in which the status of women in this dimension will develop in the future depends entirely on whether they will fight for it.
So when she was seventy-two years old, she happily handed over the power and gave the throne to Gu Qijin's grandson, the heir she had personally trained.
None of the courtiers expected that she would really delegate power as she said, without even intending to listen to politics from behind the curtain.
In order to prevent his existence from affecting the government affairs, he directly took Fu Zhu and those old female officials who had been with her for decades to travel around the world.
Courtiers, "..."
When the new emperor ascended the throne, Gu Qijin was also confused. He was an old man. He cried hard, pointed at the courtiers and cursed:
"Did you force my aunt? Otherwise, why would my aunt leave me and run away?"
Courtiers, "..."
It’s so unfair, and we feel like we’ve been abandoned, okay?
The one under the greatest pressure is the new emperor. He has heard his ancestors whispering in his ears since he was a child:
"My child, you have to stand up early and let our ancestors retire early and travel around the world. Whether our ancestors' old age is good or not depends on you..."
What about the promised dictatorship? What about the promised monopoly of power?
Anyway, he didn't see anything from his ancestor. He only saw that his ancestor wanted to hand over the power to him immediately and run away.
He always felt that he was not ready to be an emperor, because the empress in front of him was too legendary in her life and she was too good at being an emperor.
If he's not careful, he may be portrayed as a foolish king or something.
But I don’t know when, my ancestor’s hair turned all white, and when he was reading the memorial, he started coughing frequently...
He suddenly felt distressed.
He had always been very clear that what his ancestor cared about was not power or status. When she became emperor, it was her responsibility to support the country of Kang - a responsibility that did not belong to her.
She has no self in her life, only her family, country and world.
Now, she has done her best in everything she should do, and it is up to his descendants to take over this responsibility.
Even if he can't be as wise and powerful as his ancestors, as long as his mind doesn't get dizzy, it won't be a problem for Kang State to continue to prosper.
What's more, he is the heir to the ancestor's religion. Even if he doesn't believe in himself, he should believe in his ancestor.
It’s time for our ancestors to put down this responsibility and live their own lives.
…
Gu Mo once said that her merits and demerits will be judged by future generations.
And future generations will be fair to her.
The criticism and accusations against her from later generations have always only accounted for a small part.
Even those who had disagreements and disputes with her during the same period did not have the slightest negative opinion of her in the end.
No one can deny her achievements.
She was canonized as Emperor Roujia when she was born. She went to Donghu to marry at the age of sixteen, experienced four dynasties and two marriages, returned to Kang State at the age of nineteen, proclaimed herself emperor at the age of thirty-two, abdicated at the age of seventy-two, and died at the age of seventy-five.
…
Her life is full of legend.
He single-handedly created the most prosperous age in history. The Celestial Kingdom became famous at home and abroad, attracting all nations to come to the Kingdom.
As the longest-reigning emperor of the Kang Dynasty, there was never a large-scale war in her decades of reign.
Because she trained some of the most famous female diplomats in history.
Among them were her palace maid Fu Zhu and noble lady Li Wenxiu.
Because of the support of these outstanding diplomats, even fifty years after her death, the surrounding neighboring countries have always respected Kang State and have never launched a war.
Moreover, since her beginning, Kang State has not made peace with each other, ceded territory, or paid tribute. It is also known as the most courageous dynasty in history.
The people who lived during those hundred years were rated as the happiest people in history.
The peaceful and prosperous age created the most splendid and all-encompassing multiculturalism in the history of literature.
During that period, countless talented poems and poems were famous for later generations and became a dazzling pearl in the history of literature.
At the same time, the commodity economy developed rapidly during this period. Kang merchants traveled across the oceans to explore, opening up major transportation routes between the east and the west, and connecting the world as a whole for the first time.
During this period, many big businessmen such as Wu Huaixun appeared, and many classic works on business were left for later generations.
Similarly, the enlightenment of political economy and culture not only attracted all nations to come to Korea, but also promoted the integration of nationalities...
There are only a few strokes in history books, but her legendary life cannot be fully described.
For thousands of years, her deeds have been widely spread, and statues can be seen everywhere on this land.
However, Gu Mo never expected that the darkest part of her image as a wise and powerful person was actually written by her nephew Gu Qijin.
When Gu Qijin was old, he began to write his own biography of Gu Mo.
When writing about his love life, he actually spent a lot of pen and ink writing about Ati, creating an infatuated and full image for Ati.
When Gu Mo took the female officials to travel around the world, he didn't take Ati with him.
When Gu Mo returned to the imperial city, he learned that Ati was seriously ill.
Later, Gu Mo personally supported the spirit and sent Ati back to his hometown of Donghu.
Gu Qijin didn't know if his imperial aunt had love for Ati, but when he saw Ati's death, his imperial aunt cried.
He thought that Aunt Huang might not understand what kind of emotion could make a person leave his hometown for decades just to stay by that person's side.
She can always only be the empress who is willing to make all sacrifices and efforts for her faith and country, but she cannot be the ordinary woman in Ati's heart who can respond to his feelings.
The relationship between her and Ati was ultimately ruthless.
However, no matter how tenderly Gu Qijin described this regretful relationship, it was still not as good as his last sentence.
"What a pity, the Emperor pities Fuzhu very much. Every time he stays overnight..."
The translation is, unfortunately, the empress only likes Fu Zhu, and even often keeps Fu Zhu overnight in the palace.
As the nephew who has the best relationship with the empress, his words have very high credibility in history, making Gu Mo and Fu Zhu the most popular same-sex couple in history.
Later generations of CP taboo novels and movies about the two people are really everywhere.
With just these words, Gu Qijin turned Ati into a passerby.
