The next day, the Emperor did not come to watch the platform in Emperor Qiu again.
The notion of ruling myriad things wasn't unfounded after all; allowing him to sit here like a loafer for a full seven days, the imperial court might come to a halt.
This is also the reason Mingde said that Empress Feng was not suitable to be the emperor. A proper emperor is very busy; if she honestly attends court every day and deals with government affairs after court, she might quickly drop the matter.
Of course, if she didn't drop the matter, the situation might be worse.
The Emperor was not free, but the officials still came to watch after court. Some may be out of interest, while others may have staked their fortunes.
Without the emperor present, everyone on the platform was quite casual, clusters of three to five gathered together discussing, no different from the masses at the foot of the mountain.
