Chapter 36
Jun Zeci didn't actually doubt Wei Huai'an's ability to travel back in time at first.
He just suspected that Wei Huai'an might have the ability to control others.
Otherwise, these days, Jun Zeci would feel like he was being controlled by unknown forces from time to time. As a high-ranking emperor who has always had absolute control over everything, Jun Zeci had a rare chance of being controlled by this kind of force.
The feeling of control gave him a suffocating feeling of restraint, which also gave him a rare sense of uncertainty.
Jun Zici is not a person who likes to sit still and wait for death.
He has always tried his best to solve problems when they arise.
In addition, only Wei Huaian around him has the special ability to turn back time, and it is difficult for Jun Zeci not to think of Wei Huaian.
Then Jun Zeci began to do some more obscure tests.
Jun Zeci remembered that he had noticed that he had this feeling of being restrained before, when he moved to punish the concubines in the harem.
So these days, Wei Huai'an could often see Jun Zeci hesitate to speak to her, his mouth opened, his expression tangled and struggling, but he never said a word.
At that time, Wenha only thought that Jun Zeci was strange, as if someone was forcing him to make a choice he didn't want to make.
But in fact, it was a small temptation done by Jun Zeci himself.
After testing, Jun Zeci discovered that every time he got angry because of Wei Huaian's words and wanted to ask her to copy the palace rules, the feeling of being manipulated reappeared.
Jun Zeci thought that this was also Wei Huai'an's ability.
However, until Wei Huaian told him that his ability was not only to turn back time, but also to return from the past to the present, Jun Zexi's thinking was no longer on the same train of thought as Wei Huaian's.
Jun Zexi no longer paid attention to what Wei Huaian's archive reading meant, but thought of another thing.
According to what Wei Huaian said just now, her ability should only be to save and load files, and nothing else. So the question is, who has this ability that can control him?
Jun Zeci had doubts about the world he lived in for the first time.
The feeling of being manipulated is so subtle.
If Jun Zeci had to describe it, it was as if he had deviated from the originally set story line, and then a pair of hands kept pushing him back to the original line.
It was as if there was an invisible rule that kept him following, and another pair of invisible hands constantly correcting his behavior.
Even though he has encountered some difficult things since he was a child, Jun Zeci has had a smooth journey.
From the helpless and unknown eldest son of the emperor at the beginning, to now he is completely out of the control of the Queen Mother and has become an emperor with real power. When people today talk about the emperor of this dynasty, who wouldn't say that he is a young and promising man?
However, all kinds of news that have been tested in recent days have made the young emperor's eyes look a little more confused. Could it be that everything he has done over the years has actually been controlled?
However, he couldn't help but think too much.
The scenery in front of me changes at a speed that is difficult for ordinary people to observe.
Jun Zeci's eyes couldn't keep up with the passage of time, so he couldn't help but close his eyes.
But when he opened his eyes again, he was no longer in the inner hall of Qianqing Palace. Wei Huaian, who was half lying on the imperial concubine's couch next to him, was no longer here either.
Instead, there were two middle-aged officials in official uniforms kneeling in front of him.
Jun Zeci now understood what Wei Huaian's words meant.
The corners of his mouth quirked up slightly, but they soon fell down. Jun Zexi lowered his head and glanced at the person kneeling in front of him.
These two people are the current leaders of the Yangliu family - Governor Yang and Shangshu Liu.
Jun Zeci quickly realized what the scene was like. It was exactly the scene after he allowed the censor to impeach the Yangliu family before he could get them.
After they saw that the censor who impeached them was Jun Zeci, they also knew that the emperor was suspicious of their family. After going to court, they came to Qianqing Palace without saying a word, and Jun Zeci had not said anything. What, they were already kneeling down.
Jun Zeci did not ask them to get up immediately, but his eyes fell on them.
The two people kneeling on the ground noticed that there was a kind of gaze falling on them, and they couldn't help but shudder. This gaze was really hard to ignore. When they were stared at, they always felt as if the person standing in front of them was not a person, but someone. One hides in the darkness and stares at the prey he is targeting, waiting for the opportunity to take a bite when the time comes.
They never dared to underestimate Jun Zeci.
Although their qualifications are not as good as those in the imperial court who are over fifty years old, they have experienced the era when the late emperor got angry and dealt with several aristocratic families at once.
Outsiders didn't know it, and they all thought that the late emperor was so strong that he couldn't tolerate any sand, so he directly uprooted some powerful families. From then on, the families were dying and no longer looked as arrogant as before.
But these families who were dealt with actually knew what was going on at the beginning.
In fact, the late emperor had not made up his mind to be an enemy of the aristocratic family at all.
Firstly, the aristocratic family has been accumulating its power since the founding of the country. It is so deep-rooted that it is difficult to move them;
Secondly, it was because the late emperor was not actually a powerful emperor. He also needed to rely on the support of his aristocratic family, otherwise it would be difficult to resist his political opponents.
However, Jun Zeci, who was still just a prince at that time, helped the late emperor directly find the army privately raised by the family, and then infiltrated his own people into it without the family knowing.
On the other hand, the evidence that the aristocratic families raised private armies was given to the late emperor, which made the late emperor furious and dealt with these aristocratic families ruthlessly.
And because of what Jun Zeci did to the family's army, the family ultimately made mistakes at the most critical moment, and from then on it could only be controlled by the late emperor.
At that time, Jun Zeci had just reached the crown.
A young man could achieve this, let alone Jun Zeci, who is now the emperor.
How could Governor Yang and Shangshu Liu not be afraid of Jun Zeci after witnessing all this?
