The Emperor had a great harvest and was very satisfied.

But seeing Gu Nancheng's gloomy face, after thinking for a moment, he decided to help him out, lest this brat overturn the table and refuse to work next time, and then he could no longer take advantage of these six people to fleece Fang Ruotang.

"The Imperial Advisor is indeed very kind to the young prince."

"There's no other way; they're on our side, we have to protect them!"

Fang Ruotang replied with a pained expression, without even looking up, her mind still racing with thoughts of the little mirror.

The Emperor raised an eyebrow at the young prince, "Gu Nancheng, you must remember the Grand Preceptor's high regard for you!"

The Emperor emphasized the word "value," and the young prince was still angry, but he couldn't suppress his good mood, and a bright and radiant smile gradually appeared on his face.

By now, they have figured out the little mirror's capabilities. In addition to its storage space containing countless elixirs and numerous spiritual veins, this thing can also steal things from other worlds.

They are practically omnipotent.

His displeasure wasn't about the spirit stones, but about the Emperor using him as a pawn to swindle things from Fang Ruotang, and that smug, petty face of the Emperor. If it weren't for the Emperor, he would have attacked him.

However, the Emperor was somewhat useful today. He had always thought that Fang Ruotang didn't care about anyone except the Crown Prince, but he never expected that she would actually consider him one of her own.

The young prince gazed at Fang Ruotang with deep affection. Fang Ruotang shuddered, rubbed her arms, and asked the little mirror.

Has the young prince gone mad? His eyes are terrifying.

Is it possible that he's secretly flirting with you?

Fang Ruotang clicked her tongue.

Is this a subtle flirtation?

Then she tried it on the young prince a few times.

The young prince froze.

The small mirror was too ugly to look at.

[Stop fooling around. The Crown Prince is watching you closely. If you do this twice more, he'll probably call the imperial physician and think there's something wrong with your eyes.]

Fang Ruotang was dissatisfied.

"Who do you look down on? It must be the young prince who's in the wrong. I'm just not good at learning. When I get back to the manor, I'll learn properly from my older sister." My older sister just gave Yu Sheng a casual glance, and he happily followed her.

Fang Shengtang: ...

I thank you for pushing me to become famous when I shouldn't have.

Prime Minister Fang: This child deserves a beating.

When I got home, I told my eldest granddaughter about it and told her to teach her a lesson, since she had completely ripped away any semblance of decency in the family.

Fang Ruotang was unaware that her little bottom was about to suffer, and she kept her eyes downcast while secretly straining, her facial features flying wildly with each flick of her wrist.

Wow, it seems like even this seductive trick requires some talent!

Fang Ruotang rubbed her face, feeling a little defeated.

Stop messing around! You're acting like a monkey show; can't you see everyone laughing at you?

Fang Ruotang suddenly looked up and found that it was true. She immediately pouted and huffed in dissatisfaction.

Have they even sorted out their own family matters? How dare they come here and laugh at me! Quick, let's go and scold them!

After more than three months, the corrupt officials in the court have been basically purged. The officials who remain, even if they are not clean, are within the tolerance range of the emperor and the crown prince.

Therefore, this minister was not afraid of death, but he was afraid of not being able to leave a clean reputation in the world, which was more terrible than death.

Wow, no way! At his age, he actually enjoys eating his wife's feet.

[Ugh, I'm going to throw up. He picked his ass and didn't even wash his hands.]

Quick, let me see who he shook hands with today! Ugh, I hope the Crown Prince and the others didn't shake hands with anyone...

For a time, everyone felt insecure.

Then Fang Ruotang called out a few names. Those people's faces turned ashen, and they kept wiping their hands on their clothes, glaring hatefully in one direction.

The official who was being glared at shrank back and sighed, "Isn't this what it means to be busy?"

Wow! That's amazing, he slept with his dog.

Fang Ruotang looked at the small mirror in the void in disbelief, then at the person he was pointing at, her big eyes filled with confusion.

Was it the kind of sleep she imagined?

"Oh, he fell asleep while drunk. I thought it was bestiality!" Little Mirror's voice carried a deep sense of disappointment for some reason.

One of the ministers had already covered his face and was trying to escape.

He regretted it! If he had known this would happen, he would have gone along with those corrupt officials and died to end it all, instead of ending up like this.

The body remains, but the soul is gone.

[Hey, there's a jerk here.]

【who? 】

[The eighth person counting from your grandfather, the one with the two-pronged mustache.]

Fang Ruotang glanced up and, perhaps influenced by preconceived notions, made her decision after only a couple of glances.

[He looks like a womanizer.]

[The main problem is that he has a virtuous and generous wife who keeps arranging concubines for him. He never outwardly targets the concubines, haha, but if he stays in a concubine's room for a couple more nights, his wife will arrange for him to take in another concubine. Now he has over twenty concubines in his harem, and everyone thinks he's a womanizer.]

Fang Ruotang, confused by the meaning behind Xiao Jingzi's words, pressed for an explanation.

So he's not a pervert?

[He's pretty much like most men these days! Not exactly a paragon of virtue, but not infamous either. The main problem is he married well. His wife, wanting a reputation for being virtuous and generous, keeps arranging concubines for him. But she's afraid he'll actually fall for them, so the number of women in his harem keeps growing. Every time he takes in a new concubine, she hypocritically complains to the maids that the previous one was useless and couldn't hold onto the master's heart. It's hilarious! Now he has a house full of beautiful women, and he can barely afford to keep them all.]

Fang Ruotang smacked her lips.
