Now that the road is complete, Liu Guodong and his cabinet ministers subconsciously looked at each other a few times.

At this moment, Li Dequan, who had read the will and read the words of the throne ceremony, shouted in an upset voice: "Please invite the new emperor to ascend the throne."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

All the officials turned around and crawled to the entrance of the Golden Palace to bow.

Li Xiaoyao is wearing a dragon robe, and the five-clawed golden dragon on his chest is vivid and vivid.

He stepped into the Golden Palace with light steps, and then came down to the steps in front of the dragon throne with his knees. He sat on the dragon throne with a magnificent attitude.

Li Xiaoyao touched the dragon chaise curiously, feeling the surging moment of his heart.

"Yeah..." Li Dequan, who was on the side, saw that Li Xiaoyao was a little lost, hurriedly spoke up to remind him.

Li Xiaoyao looked up and looked down at the civil and military ministers kneeling in the hall. He lowered his voice in a decent manner and said, "All my beloved ministers."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Several cabinet ministers led by Prime Minister Liu Guodong stood up.

The other civil and military officials looked at the middle-aged man standing at the front of the right. Seeing him nodding, the officials stood up one after another.

Li Xiaoyao glanced at the middle-aged man. His name was Lu Weizhi, Empress Dowager Lu's younger brother, currently serving as Minister of War, and controls the 50,000 city defense forces guarding the capital.

"The new emperor first ascended the great treasure, and his harem was vacant. According to the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager, the new emperor should marry the empress as soon as possible to enrich the harem, and use the rule of the ancestor to extend the bloodline of our Han royal family and consolidate the century-old foundation of our Han country." Li Dequan shouted sharply.

"I, please ask Your Majesty to marry the Queen as soon as possible."

In the Golden Palace, a group of court officials led by Lu Weizhi knelt on the ground and said.

Li Xiaoyao, sitting on the dragon throne, was obviously shocked by this scene. Although his face was cold, his heart was mixed.

I didn't expect that forced marriage would come so quickly, and more than half of the court officials in the hall followed Lu Weizhi's horse.

Li Xiaoyao looked at Prime Minister Liu Guodong with his eyes squinted. He and several older court officials were still standing, without any intention of kneeling and asking him to marry the queen.

"Sir, do you have something to say?" Li Xiaoyao placed his hope on Liu Guodong and his group of old ministers, hoping that they could delay their time for him.

Just when the 20,000 black-armored cavalry outside the capital is in place, he can take the initiative.

Liu Guodong stood up expressionlessly, bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I am old, I beg you to ask your Majesty to resign and return to your hometown."

As soon as Liu Guodong finished speaking, before Li Xiaoyao could react, several old ministers standing behind him stepped out and said in unison: "Your Majesty, I'll plead for Your Majesty to let us resign and return to our hometown."

Li Xiaoyao frowned slightly. These pedantic ministers didn't know how to delay some time for him, but instead proposed to resign?

This is obviously not about him, the new emperor of the Han Dynasty, or they really think that they are just a puppet of Empress Dowager Lu.

Li Xiaoyao remained calm and concentrated. If he really allowed these ministers to resign, not only would the court fall into paralysis, but no one would dare to compete in the court in the future.

After thinking about it over and over again, Li Xiaoyao said, "I, I will allow my dear friends to go home for a few days to rest. Don't mention the matter of resigning from office in the future. I will wait until you have a good spirit and come to court again."

Several old officials looked at each other, and the reply seemed to be beyond their expectations. Then they bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Flat!" Li Xiaoyao waved his hand.

He wanted to change the topic, but Lu Weizhi stood up again and looked at him with sharp eyes and said, "Your Majesty, the wedding is related to the foundation of our Han Dynasty. Moreover, the Empress Dowager has issued an imperial edict, and the wedding date will be tomorrow. I hope Your Majesty will marry the queen as soon as possible and enrich the harem."

"I hope Your Majesty will marry the queen as soon as possible and enrich the harem." This time, all the officials in the Golden Palace knelt down.

Li Xiaoyao frowned slightly. Now he has no ability to compete with Empress Dowager Lu, so he can only act according to her wishes.

He looked at Lu Weizhi and smiled and said, "I, I agree."

"Your Majesty is wise." The ministers said in unison.

"If you have something to report, you will leave the court without anything to do." Li Dequan shouted from the side.

On the first day of ascension to the throne, there were too many things to discuss, but the ministers seemed to have discussed it, and no one was leaving the list to start the memorial.

"Retreat the court..."

Li Xiaoyao stood up helplessly and walked towards the harem under the leadership of Li Dequan.

"Shangshu Lin!" Outside the Golden Palace, Lu Weizhi called out Lin Shicang.

Lin Shicang turned around and smiled, "Shu Lu."

Lu Weizhi stepped forward and leaned beside Lin Shicang and whispered: "When there is no one in the future, just call me brother. There is no need to be too dissatisfied between us."

"Shu Lu Shangshu, we are both officials of the court, and we are now in the palace. It may be inappropriate to call this, so it is better to call it an official rank." Lin Shicang said with a casual face and a smile.

"My brother-in-law is more careful in thinking about the problem." Lu Weizhi smiled embarrassedly: "The girl Zhiqing is about to get married tomorrow. This wedding was organized by you, the Minister of Rites, so you have to work hard to speed up the process."

"This is my responsibility. Please rest assured about the wedding tomorrow." Lin Shicang said.

"Okay!" Lu Wei said generously, and then he smiled and said, "Then it won't delay your business. I will go to the Empress Dowager."

"Okay! You're busy first."

"Goodbye!"

The two saluted and then headed in two different directions.

Outside the Prime Minister’s Office!

Liu Guodong had just got off the carriage. A housekeeper in his early fifties greeted him anxiously and said, "Master, you are finally back."

When Liu Guodong saw him, he smiled and said, "It's okay, the Empress Dowager just kept us in the palace for a while."

Then he said, "Go and arrange something. I will go to the study room with a few adults to talk to you. During this period, don't let anyone get close to the study room."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now." After saying that, Butler Wu bowed to the adults, and then walked into the mansion.

Not long after, Liu Guodong led several ministers in the court into the study. He sat in the main seat, and the other four ministers sat on both sides below.

"Sir, please rest assured that I am absolutely safe, so let's talk about it! What do you think of our new emperor?" Liu Guodong said straight to the point.

The four adults looked at each other.

"The Prime Minister, the officials thought that Empress Dowager Lu had spared no expense to murder the other eight princes just to support Li Xiaoyao ascend the throne. There must be an ulterior secret in this."

"Mr. Xia, it's better not to say this." An adult said, "The purpose of Empress Dowager Lu doing this is very obvious, to let Li Xiaoyao be a puppet."

"In the future, the court will no longer be a court, and the Han State will no longer be a Han State of the Li family. How wise and powerful the ancestor was, the Han State will be destroyed in the hands of Li Xiaoyao. Alas...," an adult shook his head and sighed, which shows how sad he was about the current situation.

"But now he has ascended the throne and become the new Han Emperor. Although he is a puppet, what can we ministers do?"

"Mr. Li said the key point." At this time, Liu Guodong spoke out: "The reality is now, where should we go? This is the key."

Dear lords, I suddenly fell into silence!
