Chapter 2406: Qianqing Palace
Qiao Xuan chuckled and threw a look at him. “You have done what you promised me! You have done it with your heart!”
Shao Yunduan could not help but smile, and his eyes were filled with warmth. “You are kind, and it is my fortune!”
He pulled her into his arms. “Fortunately, you’re here too. If we enter the capital together, we can save a lot of trouble in the province.”
Speaking of this, Qiao Xuan’s eyes darkened. Even though they had conquered the capital and conquered most of the empire, that was only the beginning. There was still a lot to do.
Those royal relatives, noble families, and officials of the Imperial Court… all had to be properly settled down. As for what these people were thinking, they did not know for a while. It would take a long time before they could slowly see it.
It would be fine if they were honest, but there would always be people who were unwilling and planned something in the dark.
If Shao Yunduan opened a harem and took in seven or eight concubines from the royal family, the noble families and the first or second-rank officials, he might be able to save the province a lot of trouble and win them over in the shortest time possible.
Although there were times when a marriage alliance was nothing, there were times when it was a shortcut to reassure each other.
But Shao Yunduan was not going to take the shortcut of the province, which meant that they would be in a lot of trouble.
However, neither of them had any intention of giving in on this point.
Qiao Xuan could not accept it at all. She had tried to accept it, but she could not.
If she could not accept it, Shao Yunduan would not make her sad, even in name.
Besides, he was not interested in such things, except for her.
In the palace, although Meng Wanfu, Yang Mu, and the others had only arrived half a day earlier, it was enough to control the entire palace. Everything had basically returned to normal.
When Qiao Xuan, Shao Yunduan and the others entered the court, it was as if nothing had happened. Apart from the messy steps on the flowers and trees, everything seemed fine.
Meng Wanfu and the other two went to welcome them, bringing everyone to their knees.
Shao Yunduan did not let go of Qiao Xuan’s hands, but asked someone to help them up.
Meng Wanfu and Ding Xiang were very respectful. Needless to say, Yang Mu was with Zheng Sangge and Shao Yunduan.
When the Huaixi faction saw Meng Wanfu and the others’ attitudes, they naturally felt comfortable in their hearts. Everyone became even more amiable.
Fortunately, Ding Xiang was there. Ding Xiang had nagged at Meng Wanfu more than once, saying things like “it’s not the same as before” and “it knows its limits”. Meng Wanfu’s ears almost became calluses, but he firmly remembered them.
They had a good relationship with Qi when they were in the Northwest, and they had a good relationship with Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan. But since Shao Yunduan had taken over the world, he would be the Emperor in the future.
No matter how close they were with Shao Yunduan, they had to know their limits when it came to righteousness. If they let themselves go, they might get into trouble.
Seeing them like this, Shao Yunduan felt a bit emotional, but he understood that things had changed from this moment on, so he did not help them up.
He had to get used to it.
Xie En stood up. Meng Wanfu cupped his fists and said, “Lord, the palace has been cleaned up. The original guards have been chased out of the palace for investigation and resettlement. The palace maids and eunuchs are investigating one by one and choosing what they can use to work elsewhere. Since you are here, please instruct me to arrange these things! Only the Qianqing Palace…”
