Zheng Wei listened and shook his head, "Your mind really can't figure out why."
Lu Taobao was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Zheng Wei laughed heartily, "How is the palace food?"
"Extremely delicious, it's such a pleasure to be the emperor."
Lu Taobao instinctively answered Zheng Wei's question, then asked with some confusion, "What do you mean?"
Zheng Wei shrugged, "The meaning is very obvious, which is that you only know how to eat, so you can't figure out such a simple question."
Lu Taobao took a deep breath and endured it, not knowing why.
Seeing his appearance, Zheng Wei couldn't help but laugh again.
After Zheng Wei finished laughing, he said, "Actually, the reason is very simple. He's just telling himself by Sima Zhu's fate that he must be a good emperor in the future. Otherwise, today we helped him overthrow the tyrannical emperor Sima Zhu, and after we leave, someone will naturally overthrow him."
"It's not because he's greedy for the throne, but because he's in his position and acting for his responsibilities. To avoid being lost in the future, he naturally needs to keep himself sufficiently clear-headed now."
After listening to Zheng Wei's explanation, Lu Taobao suddenly understood. Being an emperor was so troublesome.
"You said 'leave' just now, who is leaving? Where are they going?"
Zheng Wei said with a solemn expression, "After the enthronement ceremony, we will leave, I, Mimi, Yizhiye, and Namu Zhong. As for whether you leave, you decide for yourself."
"By the way, Bai Ying has already left. She's with her master and should be at Baiyun Peak now."
"What? When did this happen? Why didn't I know?"
Lu Taobao cried out in shock, truly surprised. Bai Ying had left again, and their relationship had clearly improved so much.
Seeing Lu Taobao's dejected look, Zheng Wei kindly said, "In fact, you know in your heart that she will leave sooner or later. She has to follow her master to the Sacred Spirit Continent. Therefore, in these three days, you should think carefully about what you are going to do. You are not alone, you still have your parents. Can you abandon them and follow Bai Ying's footsteps? Even if you follow, can you really be with Bai Ying?"
Every word Zheng Wei spoke struck Lu Taobao's heart heavily, causing his heart to sink little by little.
These were things he had deliberately ignored.
But now, reality did not allow him to continue to ignore them.
He had to make his own choice within three days.
Patting Lu Taobao on the shoulder, Zheng Wei strode forward. In the end, these matters had to be decided by Lu Taobao himself.
As a brother, he could only say and do this much.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed, and the enthronement ceremony was held as scheduled.
Seeing Sima Han in a bright yellow auspicious robe, and Yue Qingxin in her full empress attire, Shen Xiaoyan felt extremely excited.
She knew that in her past life, she had loved watching palace dramas very much.
Now, to be able to witness the grand occasion of enthronement and investiture of the empress with her own eyes, she couldn't help but be excited.
Seeing Shen Xiaoyan's excitement, Zheng Wei felt a little curious, "Why is Mimi so excited? Does she also want to be an empress?"
Shen Xiaoyan was stunned and quickly waved her hand, saying, "I don't want to be an empress at all. Sitting in that position, although it looks glorious, one is not free. I love freedom the most and don't like too many restrictions."
Hearing Shen Xiaoyan say this, Zheng Wei's slightly raised heart was put at ease.
He was truly a little afraid that Shen Xiaoyan would like such a glorious status. After all, which woman in the world didn't have a dream of being an empress, second only to one person above ten thousand people? Such a position was truly too tempting. Hearing Shen Xiaoyan's clear answer, all his worries vanished in an instant.
Watching Sima Han holding Yue Qingxin's hand, walking up the steps step by step, and stopping at the highest position.
The two slowly turned around and looked at the civil and military officials kneeling below, shouting "Long live the Emperor, long live the Empress," and felt a sense of emotion.
Originally, after leaving the capital in distress back then, he never thought he would have a chance to return, but now he had ascended to this position.
Sima Hao was also watching Sima Han and the two from the side, with complex emotions deep in his eyes and tightly pursed lips, obviously, his heart was also not calm.
But thinking of the deceased Sima Zhu, his expression gradually relaxed.
Indeed, what was there to be reluctant about?
After the ceremony, Shen Xiaoyan and others went to the Hall of Diligent Governance.
Although the name remained the same, all the furnishings and layout inside had changed.
Sima Han had already changed into casual clothes and was sitting there, lost in thought.
Hearing footsteps, Sima Han instinctively looked up. When he saw Shen Xiaoyan and the others, a smile instantly appeared on his face.
"You're here?"
Sima Han said, and at the same time stood up, walked around the long table, and walked towards Shen Xiaoyan and the others.
Seeing him like this, Yizhiye couldn't help but laugh heartily, "You are the emperor now, you can't stand up to greet us from now on."
Sima Han gave a wry smile, "Are you starting to tease me already?"
Zheng Wei patted Sima Han on the shoulder and said, "Take care."
These were just two simple words, without too much farewell or too many instructions, because he believed that with Sima Han's ability, he would definitely become a good emperor.
In his past life, none of them had a good end. In this life, at least they had different outcomes.
Perhaps not wanting to make things too sad, in the end, no one said much of farewell. Shen Xiaoyan took out several jade bottles from her space and handed them to Sima Han.
"This is the Holy Water, actually called Immortal Spring Water. Although it doesn't have the effect of bringing people back from the dead, it can easily detoxify all poisons. I gave some to Sister. Carry these with you, and if you need them, you won't have to worry about it being too late. Of course, it would be even better if you didn't need them."
Sima Han nodded heavily and put the porcelain bottles into his spatial ring with care.
Seeing this, Shen Xiaoyan felt a little relieved.
"Ahan... from now on, I'll have to rely on you to take good care of my parents. You don't need to grant them official titles or anything, just ensure their safety for life."
The speaker was Lu Taobao.
After three days of deep thought, he had decided to go to Baiyun Peak with Shen Xiaoyan and the others.
He didn't want to give up and let go of the future. Whether Bai Ying chose to be with him or not, he couldn't give up just because of a small possibility.
If he really did that, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Sima Han looked at the hesitant expression on Lu Taobao's face and felt a sense of emotion in his heart.
He could understand Lu Taobao's dilemma. He had no choice, but Lu Taobao could at least make a choice. Since it was destined that he could not leave the capital, then let this brother leave without any worries.
"Rest assured, as long as I am here for one day, your parents will have no problems."
