My Wife is a Psychic

The emperor was silent. “I’ve been cautious and cautious all these years, not daring to make any mistakes. Although it can’t be considered as the country being peaceful and the people being at peace, it’s good that the people are living and working in peace. Even if I have no credit, I’ve worked hard, right?” The flooding of the Yellow River, the plague in Zhengzhou, the construction of waterways, and the development of agriculture. These achievements were all real. They could not force him to abdicate, could they? Now, there were rumors among the people that he, the emperor, was immoral and wanted him to go back and enjoy his remaining years. However, it was true. There was bird poop in the palace every day, and he had to hold an umbrella when he went to court.

All of the officials looked at each other. Was the emperor asking for praise?

“Your Majesty, you’re a man of fortune, a man of great fortune. You were born to enjoy the blessing of a daughter!”

“Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty. Your greatest contribution is giving birth to a little princess. Your Majesty is so blessed!

“See, the princess has brought auspicious signs to His Majesty the moment she was born.”

The emperor’s mouth twitched. He did not want to hear this.

“I have let the heavens and the people of the world down. I feel guilty. I have let down the people, I have let down the love of the heavens, I have let down the ancestors, I have let down! I… I want to abdicate! I want to close my door and reflect on my mistakes!” The emperor’s face was dark and his eyes were filled with sorrow. After he finished speaking, he took the thing off his head. The officials who had just stood up knelt down again. The emperor’s face was filled with joy. They should persuade him to not abdicate now. right? They knew that this country could not do without him, right?

“Your Majesty is wise!” All the officials praised in unison.

The emperor was speechless.

“Your Majesty, I couldn’t sleep last night, so I looked at the date. Three days later is a good day, suitable for abdication and the ascension of a new emperor.” The people from the imperial astronomer stood out.

The emperor replied, “No…” I …”

“I couldn’t sleep last night. I thought about it and felt that things were too rushed. Why don’t Your Majesty lend us the treasures in the private warehouse? We’ll return them after we’re done,” an official said.

“I looked at the blueprint last night. We can build another palace behind the throne room. After Your Majesty abdicates, if you miss us, you can just look at us from behind the door. Isn’t that the best of both worlds?” an official continued.

The emperor’s face was pale, they should persuade him not to abdicate, right?

“This won’t do.” Someone stood up with a righteous look.

The emperor’s face lit up with joy, but before the smile could reach the corners of his eyes, he heard the official say with a righteous tone, ” His Majesty’s sleeping chambers have to be moved back. After all, His Majesty doesn’t have that many children. It’s better to empty out other palaces. There’s no need to build the side palace behind the throne room. His Majesty should enjoy his old age. When he’s bored, we’ll come to play chess with you after the court session.

The group of people were in a heated discussion. From when the emperor would abdicate to when the new emperor would ascend the throne, to how to arrange the palace, they had thought of everything. Everything was ready, except… All of the officials looked at the emperor, waiting for him to speak with excitement.

The emperor’s heart trembled. These people were stabbing a knife into his heart!

“I don’t have a son, and the only one I have has been taken away. Now.. only have a little princess who can’t inherit the throne. It seems that I can only…” The emperor was about to say that he had to continue being the emperor when he was interrupted by the officials. “Your Majesty, we don’t despise a little princess. Back then, we supported you to be the emperor because we all thought that you would give birth to a child that would be blessed by the heavens. Although it’s a princess, it doesn’t matter.”

As soon as he said this, he immediately pointed out that the reason why the emperor could become the emperor and win the trust of the ministers so easily was really because of Jiang Xi! The emperor’s heart was about to break.

“The princess has just gotten pregnant and still needs to take care of the baby. How can she work?” The emperor smiled, his face a little pale.

Grand Tutor Xue’s hair and beard had all turned white, but he still stood out and said, “I’m willing to return to the imperial court and serve the country. I’m old, but I’m in good health. I can still serve the new emperor. After he finished speaking, he took out two 20-pound iron balls from behind and immediately started spinning them around.

The emperor was speechless and thought, ‘When I asked you to come back to the court to assist me, didn’t you say that your legs were aching and that even walking would be a problem?’
