The change happened on the day after the first Nirvana.
When she woke up the next day, Zhu Menghuang realized that her cultivation base had grown very slowly the night before. It was far from the time when she only needed to sleep every night. When she woke up the next day, she felt the joy of her cultivation base advancing by leaps and bounds.
After thinking about it, Zhu Menghuang felt that the problem lay in the black gas that shrouded the golden map in her dantian.
After Bai Musheng gave the order to start the disaster prevention work at Jiangnan East Road, the black smoke had faded a little. These days, the black smoke was only about half of its original density.
[So, my cultivation will be linked to the world in the future?】
[If the weather is good, the country is prosperous and the people are peaceful, I can cultivate smoothly. If natural disasters and man-made disasters cause the people to be in dire straits, I will be implicated?】
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. For a moment, Zhu Menghuang did not know whether to cry or laugh.
These were just conjectures. If he wanted to prove whether it was true or not, he would have to wait until the matter of Jiangnan East Road was resolved.
If the people survived the typhoon safely and her cultivation was unimpeded again, then she would have to think carefully about the future.
[As an empress, you still have to work hard to help the young paparazzo manage the country, right?】
[Life isn't easy, the empress sighs…]
At this moment, Zhu Menghuang was extremely glad that Bai Musheng didn't hide anything from her. Otherwise, if she didn't know what had happened in the previous dynasty, she would probably still be in the dark and confused.
At the thought of Bai Musheng, Zhu Menghuang got someone to bring the lotus seed soup prepared in the kitchen. She then got up and left Phoenix Palace. She sat on the imperial carriage and got someone to bring her to the Purple Imperial Palace.
Not long after, the palace people carried the imperial carriage and arrived outside the Zi Chen Hall.
The nervous and timid expressions of the palace servants waiting outside the hall instantly relaxed.
That was great! The Empress is here! Tian Zi shouldn't be angry now!
Therefore, Zhu Menghuang, who arrived at the entrance of the Purple Mansion Hall, was warmly welcomed by the palace servants.
Without informing anyone, Zhu Menghuang pushed open the door of the Purple Mansion Hall and entered with a fragrant breeze.
Inside the hall.
"Bullying men and bullying women, riding a horse in Chang 'an, injuring four civilians and killing one…"
Bai Musheng's face was expressionless, but his deep gaze landed on the two kneeling people, causing them to tremble uncontrollably.
The Son of Heaven's divine might was like a prison, vast and mighty, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him.
Even though their foreheads were pressed against the icy cold floor of the Political Announcement Hall, Marquis Anyang and Marquis Changde felt their breathing become labored.
"Is this how the two of you manage your family?”
"This old minister is terrified. This old minister is guilty…
" The Marquis of Anyang and Marquis Changde did not dare to refute. They could only call him guilty and plead for the emperor's forgiveness.
In the past, it was not that there were no noble marquises and noble young masters who ran amok in Chang 'an, but most of them were left unpunished. However, ever since the Governor of the Capital was replaced by Bao Zheng and Bao Longtu, Bao Longtu had not spared any of these lawless young masters.
After learning that their son had caused trouble, they were shocked. Almost overnight, they rushed to send people to meet the families of the commoners who had been killed and injured, hoping to pay them money to settle the matter.
They hated Bao Zheng for finding out about this from somewhere and forcefully bringing people to capture their son from their mansion.
A marquis of Great Qi was actually broken into by the capital governor with a group of bailiffs and captured by the Di son?
He wanted to use his power to pressure Bao Longtu into submission, but Bao Longtu turned around and reported this matter to Tian Zi.
Bai Musheng's eyes were slightly closed. He looked calm, but underneath the calmness, there was indeed a suffocating pressure.
He was too lazy to talk to these people about how water could carry a boat and also capsize it, nor was he interested in persuading them to cherish the people.
These people wouldn't understand.
They would only know that their ancestors had done meritorious deeds for Great Qi, so they were naturally superior. It didn't matter if those lowly nobodies killed a few of them.
How could a lowly commoner be compared to a noble family?
At the thought of this, Bai Musheng was about to say something when the door was suddenly pushed open.
"Your Majesty ~"
Bai Musheng's cold face broke into a smile when he saw Zhu Menghuang walk in. The coldness in his eyes faded as he waved at her.
"The Empress is here?"
"ChenQie has brought lotus seed soup for His Majesty.”
Zhu Menghuang walked past the two marquises kneeling on the ground and sat down beside Bai Musheng.
The atmosphere in the Purple Mansion Hall immediately changed drastically with the appearance of the Empress. Whether it was Ai Ning who was standing by the side or the two marquises kneeling on the ground, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
The emperor was dignified and unreasonable, but the empress was benevolent and merciful. There were even rumors that if the empress was around, the emperor's temperament would soften. If the two of them sincerely admitted their crimes and could win the favor of the empress and let the empress say a few words, perhaps the emperor would let their son go.
In fact, Bai Musheng had exited the [Saint Mo's Feelings-Son of Heaven] mode the moment Zhu Menghuang entered.
However…
what Marquis Anyang and Marquis Changde did not know was that this was actually a terrible thing.
In his Son of Heaven state, Bai Musheng was like a mechanical program that strictly followed the pre-set logic. Whenever he encountered such a matter, he would definitely follow the law and decide the matter according to the laws of Da Qi.
If the other party is a common people, he will be punished with a stick, fined and bear the responsibility of supporting widows and orphans, that's all.
Bai Musheng knew that such a law was extremely unfair to the lower class citizens. Killing someone was just a punishment of money. However, there was nothing he could do. This was an era of feudalism, and the nobles were naturally not equal to the common people. Hence, the law naturally favored the upper class.
He would not be biased towards the nobles, but he would not go beyond the law and punish them excessively just because he sympathized with the people. In extreme cases, he would not even show mercy to the common people.
He watched everything in the world indifferently.
If he wanted to seek justice for the dead and injured civilians, the first thing he had to do was to change the law.
But now that Bai Musheng's emotional side had overwhelmed his rational side, he found the two people in front of him to be an eyesore.
Tsk, he wanted to kill them…
Why not raid their homes for fun?
I haven't raided anyone since I ascended the throne. Why don't I just kill them today?
In any case, these two marquises had long been on his blacklist. Who asked them to be in cahoots with King An?
At the thought of this, Bai Musheng's lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile.
Two marquises, I'm sorry, but your names are on the Jinyiwei list.
Big brother…no, Tian Zi is watching you guys (laughs).
