In December, the capital had already begun to burn charcoal for warmth.
The entire capital was shrouded in a haze of charcoal.
The imperial palace naturally used smokeless golden charcoal.
In each hall, a greenhouse was also set on fire.
After Lin Wan 'er finished marking the memorials, she distributed the charcoal supplies to the various palaces in the rear palace.
Rubbing her sore wrist, Lin Wan 'er stood up.
The Emperor has been going overboard recently!
In the past, he had only asked Lin Wan 'er to circle the important parts of the memorial.
Now, Gao Lingfeng simply pushed all the work of correcting memorials to Lin Wan 'er.
On the other hand, he felt the emperor's trust in him.
Lin Wan 'er also couldn't lift her head under the increasing pressure of work.
"Huan Er."
Huan 'er was Lin Wan' er's personal palace maid.
"Your Highness," Huan 'er immediately said.
"Where is His Majesty?"
"Uh, His Majesty is tasting tea in the Imperial Concubine Hua's palace.”
"Humph!"
Lin Wan 'er snorted, and all the eunuchs and serving girls in the hall knelt down.
"Get up! Why are you kneeling!"
These eunuchs and serving girls stood up in fear.
During this period of time, the empress's authority was increasing day by day.
Even though Lin Wan 'er still had that dignified and gentle look on her face when she faced Gao Lingfeng.
She had never lost her temper with the eunuchs and serving girls beside her.
However, he had been reviewing memorials and managing the affairs of the court for a long time.
This made Lin Wan 'er's aura even stronger.
On the contrary, Gao Lingfeng had become more approachable.
Lin Wan 'er was furious.
He had been conscientiously editing the memorial, and the Emperor had actually gone to play in the Imperial Consort Hua's palace!
However, as the Empress, she could not show such a jealous mood.
He clearly didn't care about it before?
Why was it that whenever he heard that the Emperor and Consort Hua were in contact recently, his heart was filled with anger?
The Empress calmed herself down.
In any case, His Majesty will still return to my palace in the end.
During this period, Gao Lingfeng had been staying in the Empress's palace every day.
This also allowed the news of the Emperor's special favor for the Empress to spread inside and outside the court.
The Empress 'mother was happy, but she also came to the palace to tell Lin Wan' er that as the Empress, she couldn't be arrogant because of her favor.
Lin Wan 'er suddenly felt disgusted.
She vomited, scaring Huan Er so much that she immediately shouted,"Empress, where are you feeling unwell?"
"Quickly summon the Imperial Physician!"
At this moment, Gao Lingfeng was sitting in Concubine Hua's palace.
He said to Concubine Hua while drinking tea.
"Beloved Consort, what is the character of your younger brother Hua Mulan?”
Consort Hua's heart thumped.
She sighed.
Consort Hua naturally knew about her younger brother, Hua Mulan.
He had been proud since he was young and wanted to make a name for himself in the army.
However, because of this arrogance, Hua Mulan offended all her colleagues.
Even the entire circle of dignitaries was talking bad about Hua Mulan.
Hua Mulan was also an extremely arrogant person. He did not bother to explain to others.
These rumors were getting more and more ridiculous.
Gradually, Hua Mulan became the scum of the capital.
After Consort Hua entered the palace, no one in the entire residence could control Hua Mulan.
As a result, his reputation worsened.
Hua Mulan was ostracized by her superiors and was frustrated.
Consort Hua saw all of this.
However, she had never recommended her brother to Gao Lingfeng.
Because she knew that Gao Lingfeng was a wise ruler!
He would not promote his younger brother just because he favored him.
Moreover, Hua Mulan's reputation was too bad. If Gao Lingfeng wanted to promote him, he would definitely be criticized.
Did his brother do something wrong?
Concubine Hua pondered for a long time.
She really couldn't figure out what her brother had done this time.
Thus, he could only say,
"My younger brother is stubborn and useless.”
Consort Hua also let it go.
Gao Lingfeng had stopped attending the morning court session recently.
However, the emperor's prestige grew by the day.
Every time his unruly younger brother, Hua Mulan, entered the palace, he would talk about this brother-in-law of the Emperor with a face full of admiration.
With Lin Jiancheng in the royal court, the situation in the royal court that had been in turmoil for many years finally stabilized.
The Imperial Court had finally recovered from the chaotic battles.
He started to do some practical things.
Although Gao Lingfeng had given the prime minister power, the ministers still respected him.
Gao Lingfeng's talents were fully displayed in the first Imperial Conference.
This kind of method of governing a country was like cooking a small fish.
Even a person like Chief Assistant Lin Jiancheng felt inferior.
The imperial court no longer treated this young emperor with the same kind of attitude as before.
Although there were no more court meetings, the ministers were even more diligent in presenting memorials.
The emperor was always able to grasp the important parts of the memorials.
When they encountered areas that they did not do well, they would reply with mature opinions.
This way, no one dared to fool the Emperor.
A strange phenomenon occurred in the imperial court.
In the past, he would attend morning court sessions every day, and the court affairs would be a mess. The officials in the court would also muddle through their days.
But now that there was no morning court, the government was very clear. The officials of the capital were all very respectful and did not dare to deceive the Emperor.
This made Hua Mulan full of admiration for her brother-in-law.
Meeting such a wise ruler.
Naturally, Concubine Hua did not expect her pillow talk to make Gao Lingfeng put her brother in an important position.
As long as he could preserve the title of Qing Yuanhou, he would be safe for the rest of his life.
So Concubine Hua said,"My brother is useless. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."”
That was awesome!
Gao Lingfeng was ecstatic.
If even his own sister said that he was useless, then this brother-in-law was really a good-for-nothing!
Very good! This is my good helper!
It was up to his brother-in-law to ruin the country's fate!
