There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 373 Xiahou Jue's Extra Story 5
"The future, the future, which future is it? You are no longer the emperor? Or are you going to pass the throne to the sixth younger brother? Let's go?" Her eyes were shining, but the corners of her mouth were narrowed.

Xia Houjue was not annoyed, and still smiled and said: "If you have the ability to make the sixth brother willing to come over and accept this mess, I will let him go immediately."

Tang Wanning was terrified at first, and then quickly shook her head: "How is it possible, what are you thinking? Who will pick up this kind of mess, you should do it yourself, you are the decent crown prince selected by the emperor."

As she spoke, she still looked careless, with a slightly melancholy expression on her face, as if she was still brooding over her inability to leave the palace for a tour.

Xia Houjue couldn't help laughing, but he also felt a little distressed, and he was also emotional.

Who would have thought that in this life, there would be times in my life to please a woman, but this woman is the most 'ignorant', no matter how she pleases others, but she likes freedom the most.

The most difficult thing to do is that I am still the most unfree person in the world. Every time I think of this, Xia Houjue always smiles wryly.

'Everyone always fights for the throne, and always thinks that if he gets the throne, he gets everything, but he doesn't know that even if he becomes the emperor, he still has things that he can't get. '

For example, freedom, and another example, the woman I love the most.

The ancients said: The love doesn't know where it started, and it goes on and on, and when he finds that he can't extricate himself from this woman and can't leave him every moment, it's already too late.

And Xia Houjue also found that he seemed to be a different person. Even all the eunuchs and eunuchs around him, and even the courtiers and relatives, everyone found that his own emperor seemed to be a different person.

He didn't draft for a long time, unlike in the past, the palace changed women and threw women anytime and anywhere. Difficult women, sad women, favored women were everywhere, and there was a sense of extravagance everywhere.

He started to like to laugh. He never laughed before. The hatred and pain in his childhood were so heavy that he was already numb at a young age. He loves to laugh, and his expression is no longer the indifference of the past.

He stopped killing people at every turn. Since he ascended the throne and pacified the war in the northwest, he hadn't killed people for a long time.

Even though he spent a few years cleaning up many corrupt officials in the court, most of them were exiled. Except for those who committed the most serious crimes and did not kill them, he hadn't ordered to kill anyone for a long time.

His temper began to soften, and whenever he was free to discuss state affairs with ministers or go out on business with his clan members, he no longer had a stern face that made people break out in a cold sweat.

He suddenly discovered that he was starting to feel warm. It turns out that being an emperor doesn't necessarily require being in a high place. It turns out that being an emperor can also be full of flesh and blood, with joys and sorrows.

It turns out that only one woman in this world is enough, there is no need for a harem, no need for others at all.

No wonder the ancients said: I would like to be a lovebird in the sky, and I would like to be a Lianli branch in the earth. They also said: I only envy mandarin ducks but not immortals.

But it turned out that such a person really appeared, making people feel that everything before was mud and superfluous.

It turns out, it turns out...Xia Houjue always thought about it, and was always rejoicing that this person appeared, fortunately, this person appeared.

Otherwise, I don't know how to live my life carelessly.

……

In a blink of an eye, he has been on the throne for six years. In these six years, he has driven out foreign enemies and cleared up internal affairs, and he has almost never slept a full night.

As an emperor, it is impossible for him to see which officials are upright and which are corrupt, and it is even more impossible for him to judge a person's life based on a few notes. He can only be cautious and cautious.

It can only be judged in many ways, and carefully select those who can be used from among the numerous officials, large and small, in the Great Xia Dynasty, and dismiss those who want to have a wrong mind or have already made a wrong mind.

After all, the Great Xia Dynasty has just started, and cleaning up the government is the most important thing in the world. If the government is not clear, the people will not be treated lightly, and the people will not be easy, and the Great Xia Dynasty will not be able to develop.

Failure to develop means continuing to go downhill, which is absolutely impossible in Xia Houjue's view.

So he can only do it little by little, and improve it little by little. If this mess continues, it will really be rotten to the root, and it will really be impossible to get better.

When a person wants to make a career, he will naturally devote all his energy to the government. Even the woman who has long been engraved in his heart can't be scruples after all.

……

In the sixth year of Qinghe, the moment Xia Houjue learned that Tang Wanning was pregnant, Xia Houjue had already forgotten how numb he was, how guilty he was, and how guilty he was.

"Wanwan, I'm sorry, I can't always be with you."

Xia Houjue knew that this was what he said the most, but he had no choice but to feel more helpless in his heart.

"It's okay, we're living in the same palace now, if there's anything else we can do with you, you can just go about your business." She said carelessly.

Xia Houjue was even more guilty: "Wanwan, since you became the throne, you always say that, but in fact you..."

"Actually, I'm not used to having you by my side. I'm actually quite busy." She flipped through a strange sword manual while hugging her stomach.

Xia Houjue: "..."

Looking at the weird furnishings in the room, there are knives, arrows, long swords, and even daggers, everything you need, and it is also filled with all kinds of food, story books, Xia Houjue finally believed her sentence, you go Well I'm not bored.

Suddenly I couldn't help laughing, and suddenly I felt distressed.

"Alright, I'm relieved to see that you like to play with these things and are happy every day."

"After this busy period is over, how about I take you out of the palace to have a look?"

"Okay?" The woman's eyes lit up with excitement. After all, she still likes to go out of the palace.

……

In fact, the two of them had quite a lot of time to go out of the palace, but for Tang Wanning, it was still far from enough.

Xia Houjue had to pay more attention to governing the government. As long as the government is clear and the child is born in the future, he can abdicate early.

He promised Wan Wan that he would eventually take her out of the palace in this life. She didn't like it here, and he knew it.

I am his husband, an emperor who promises everything, how can I break my promise?
With such thoughts in mind, Xia Houjue couldn't sleep for a few full nights throughout the year, and the ministers were miserable, but seeing that the emperor didn't rest, they didn't dare to say anything, so they had to bury their heads in their work.

After being so busy, I have been busy for nearly 20 years.

During this period, he emptied his body, emptied his heart, emptied everything he could get out of his body, and finally restored the Great Xia Dynasty to the prosperity of the past, and finally allowed the people to live a prosperous and stable life.

Xia Houjue's wish finally came true.
