"Aunt Zhu... has drawn her knife!"

"They're making a huge mess on the mud stalls!"

"Nini... won't live past tomorrow..."

Before Lin Wanwan could finish speaking, General Liu stumbled.

What?

Drawing a knife?

"Madam, don't scare me! I'll be right there... Ouch..."

"Bang!"

Seeing this, Lin Wanwan covered her face and dared not look at him.

"lady……"

Prime Minister Jiang opened one eye and saw that after General Liu left, he ran to Lin Wanwan's side.

"Wanwan, what is he going to do?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head, "I don't know much about it."

Remembering the talisman that had been torn to shreds, Prime Minister Jiang angrily pointed at General Liu's back and cursed.

"You wretched ghost, you tore up my talisman and actually ran away?"

"If I don't go before His Majesty and impeach you, I'm not Jiang!"

"Wanwan, could you give your uncle another talisman?"

"No, there aren't any." The little guy said without hesitation.

Remember who messed it up, remember who takes responsibility...

Prime Minister Jiang: "..."

“Wanwan, Uncle Jiang didn’t do anything just now, it was you…”

"Oh my, Uncle Shen..." Lin Wanwan poked her head out and called out to Prime Minister Jiang.

Minister Shen had just come out of the hall opposite when he saw a group of people gathered together. He was about to come over and reprimand them when he unexpectedly saw Lin Wanwan.

"Go away, go away, go stay over there."

Seeing you brings me bad luck!

Wherever she is, nothing good ever comes of it.

I don't know why the Star Goddess of the Bright Moon would listen to her.

"Uncle, please don't say that. I have something to tell you."

"I will not listen!"

With that, he angrily flung his sleeves and strode into the hall.

Lin Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, never mind then."

"I won't say, I won't say anymore."

Lin Wanwan staggered into the hall, surrounded by numerous minor officials who stayed close by her side.

"Huh? You guys... are you eating meat?"

"Big brother, you're neglecting your duties! I'm going to tell Uncle Emperor!"

Lin Wanwan pointed at one of the boys hiding by the table, gnawing on a pig's trotter, and said jealously.

The boy froze. "No, no, no, I won't eat it anymore, okay?!"

"But you just ate it."

“I’ll let my uncle deduct my salary.”

As soon as Lin Wanwan finished speaking, she heard a series of rustling sounds coming from inside the hall. She turned her head and looked around.

【Alright, alright, you're all my customers, just wait!!】

"Uncle, don't hide, I've seen you!"

"I'm so angry... I'll tell my uncle to deduct your salaries."

After the little guy finished speaking, he turned around and left, holding onto the chair.

Despite his tiny frame, he pressed down on them so much that none of them dared to breathe.

"You, you, you little brat, what do you know? We're working so hard, we have no other choice."

"Forget about studying because of the exhaustion?" Lin Wanwan stepped over the threshold with one foot and slowly turned around. "Oh, then I'll go to the kitchen and ask if you've had lunch yet."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately ran to Lin Wanwan's side and picked her up.

"Oh dear, Grandma, don't talk nonsense! Being so busy that you forgot to eat lunch meant you were too busy to eat. Lunch was brought over, but we didn't eat it. We just ate it now."

Lin Wanwan looked at the empty food box next to the slag bin.

With a smile, he said, "Oh, the box is empty. Did the little dog eat it?"

"The cabinet keeps puppies for fun? I'm going to talk to my uncle about it."

Inside the palace, apart from the concubines in the harem, no one is allowed to bring pets into the palace.

Those who violate this rule will be executed.

The little one struggled to get off the boy, but the boy held her tightly.

"Let the mud out of the nest."

"The mud is hugging my nest so tightly, it hurts, I need to tell my royal uncle~"

Official: "..."

Little Suizi: "..."

These seasoned veterans put on a very serious act on a daily basis, constantly urging His Majesty to raise their salaries.

If His Majesty finds out they were all secretly deceiving each other, what if...?

"Wait, Wanwan, how about I share some with you?"

"I heard you really like braised pork knuckle. I heard you were coming here to visit, so we bought this especially for you."

Lord Du took out a large, tender pork knuckle from under the table and handed it to Lin Wanwan.

Lin Wanwan stared at the plate of braised pork knuckle, her saliva dripping onto the ground.

Seeing this, Lord Du secretly chuckled to himself.

Hey.

Little girl, I can't handle you!

But the next second.

"No!" the little guy pushed away. "I can't eat it! I have to tell my royal uncle!"

"You guys are slacking off, stealing food, and even keeping dogs."

Lord Du's face stiffened.

What?

don't want?

She's drooling all over the floor, and she... isn't going to eat?

Recalling the last time, Lin Wanwan caused his wife to stay at her parents' home for several months, until recently when the Regent Prince pursued Ye Lanyin and received a slight response from her.

So he secretly begged His Majesty to raise his salary, and after coaxing his wife for a long time, she finally agreed to return.

If his salary is really withheld, what if his wife finds out he's slacking off on duty, and what if he doesn't come back?

Either way, it's a losing proposition.

"Wanwan, I just remembered, there are other snacks here. Take a look and see which ones you like to eat, I'll give them to you."

As he spoke, Lord Du took out all the snacks he had secretly kept from the drawer and placed them on the table for Lin Wanwan to choose from.

Lin Wanwan put her hand to her lips, thinking it over and over.

He glanced at the others again.

Upon seeing this, the officials dared not delay and immediately rushed to their desks to hand over all the snacks they had hoarded.
