Emperor: Oh, I’m familiar with this routine, here it comes!

"Ahem, today's morning court session ends here. Thank you for your hard work, my dear ministers."

Xiang Hua stomped her feet happily. This dog emperor was simply a worm in her stomach. He always left court when she wanted to go eat melons.

After the court session, all the civil and military officials walked slowly. They wanted to wait for Xiang Hua to leave and then follow her secretly.

But at this moment, Xiang Hua did not run as fast as she did in the past when she was eating melons. She saw her father at the door of the Golden Palace.

"Dad, have you...did you do anything shameful behind my mother's back?"

The official who was grabbed by the sleeve angrily asked, "Am I that kind of person? Am I so dirty in your eyes? Are you still my daughter? How can a daughter slander her own father like this?"

Xiang Hua looked at him without saying anything. This man didn't look like he was acting. She would wait and see if she was sure whether it was true or not.

[Xiaogua, Xiaogua, you just said that many civil and military officials also visited prostitutes, right? ]

System: [Yes, they were also victims of the honey trap scam. Several people were defrauded to the point of being left with nothing, and some even lost everything.]

[Nothing left? Lost everything? That's definitely not my father. He doesn't have much property. I guess the fraud gang wouldn't even look down on him.]

Xiang Hua finally let go of Xiang Daguan's sleeve, smiled, waved, and ran out.

The civil and military officials had quickly changed their clothes, and the emperor and eunuch Liu had also finished disguising themselves.

In order to get the freshest melons, everyone has become extremely skilled at disguising themselves.

Many people even specially learn the art of disguise, and now their skills are terrifyingly strong.

These people of course include the emperor.

The emperor’s makeup at this moment is so good that even the king wouldn’t be able to recognize him!

When it comes to eating melons, the emperor is number one and no one dares to claim to be second.

In the huge palace, there was a grand spectacle of people running.

Xiang Hua ran very fast in front and didn't notice the disguised emperor and eunuch Liu following behind.

The Emperor, along with the Empress and Eunuch Liu, stared intently at Xiang Hua in front of them, fearing that he would lose her. He paid no attention to the Crown Prince, the Second Prince and the Third Prince who were following behind them.

The prince and his men also did not notice the civil and military officials following them.

Official Xiang looked at the backs of the crowd and shook his head helplessly.

His ideal in life used to be to be an official, a high-ranking one, but now he was in deep self-doubt.

Are all officials like this? Chasing after her daughter every day to eat melons?

The busy palace maids, eunuchs and guards were already accustomed to this scene.

At first they thought there was an earthquake, a fire, or an enemy attack, but now they are all doing their work calmly.

Just think of it as a ceremony for the emperor and all the civil and military officials to leave court.

The emperor really has good intentions. He sympathizes with everyone's hard work in court and specially organizes running exercises after court.

Soon, Xiang Hua arrived at the prison.

The jailers in the prison still remember this living father. The last time she was imprisoned, it was the emperor who personally took her out.

When the jailers saw Xianghua again, they tried hard to put on a professional smile.

"Sir, what brings you here today? I wonder what brings you here?"

Several jailers whispered in their hearts, is she going to be sent to prison again? What trouble has this living father caused again?

"I don't have anything to do, I just want to see someone, if possible."

Xiang Hua said this while feeling her pocket. She wanted to take out some silver to bribe the jailer, but there was nothing in her pocket.

She even ate all the melon seeds, and after searching for a long time she only found some melon seed shells.

The jailer looked at the melon seed shells in his palm and tried to open his eyes wide.

Oh shit, this is... melon seed shell?

This was the first time he saw someone use this thing to bribe him.

It's really a small knife to pull the butt, it's an eye opener!

He stammered, "Who...who do you want to see?"

As they were talking, two jailers brought in a man.

The man's buttocks were ripped open, and blood stained his white prison uniform red, but he was still shouting, "We are true love, you don't understand!"

Xiang Hua pursed her lips and smiled. Speak of the devil and he will appear. This man is really persistent. He must be Chi Yiqian.

He was deceived like this, but he still thought he had met true love. I don't know whether to say he is innocent or stupid.

"Yes, it's him. He is the person I want to see." Xiang Hua pointed at Chi Yiqian who had just been thrown into the cell.

"Okay, go ahead. I'll give you an hour." The jailer waved his hand and opened the cell door.

Xiang Hua walked in and took a look at Chi Yiqian. The man had been lying on the ground without moving for a long time.

"Hey, hey, hey, Chi Yiqian, wake up."

Chi Yiqian's butt hurt so much that he felt like he had no desire to live and was too lazy to even make a sound.

Seeing that he didn't react for a long time, Xiang Hua thought he had been beaten to death, so she kicked him hard in the butt.

ah--

The shrill screams caused a lot of dust to fall from the roof of the cell.

The guards and prisoners in the cell patrolled and slept as usual. They were no longer surprised by this situation.

Those who can still scream and howl are those who have just been imprisoned. After a long time, people become numb, and only indifference remains.

"You...what are you doing?" Chi Yiqian's face wrinkled like a malnourished sunflower.

After seeing clearly that the person coming was Xiang Hua, he suddenly stood up and took a big step back, not caring about the excruciating pain in his buttocks.

"You come... to watch me?"

Chi Yiqian knew that Xiang Hua would only show up where there were melons. Could he be the owner of the melon today?

"Yes, I just want to see you having fun." Xiang Hua did not hide anything, and her frankness scared Chi Yiqian.

"Did the emperor ask you to come? Nuzizi and I are in true love. Don't try to expose us if you come."

Xiang Hua laughed so hard that she stamped her feet. "What did you say her name was? A female liar?! Haven't you seen through this yet?"

This name really suits the person!

"Azi, she is not a female liar. She promised me that she would run away with me after she paid off her family's debts. She is the most innocent and lovely girl in the world. I don't allow you to say that about her!"

Chi Yiqian's frail face was filled with a determined look; his A Zi would not tolerate any disobedience.

It won’t work for Xiang Hua, not even if the emperor comes!

"Oh, a love-brain. A love-brain with an IQ of 0."

Xiang Hua looked at him jokingly, "You're working so hard, what is your Ah Zi doing? Why doesn't she pay to bail you out?"

A trace of hesitation flashed across Chi Yiqian's face. "She...she must be too sad. It's all my fault for making her sad."

Xiang Hua's mood could no longer be described as speechless. He didn't know how he could become a third-rank official with his IQ. Did he buy it?

Not only is he stupid and lovesick, he also knows how to PUA himself, with all kinds of buffs stacked up on him.

"Chi Yiqian, do you know that your balls are going to be chopped off soon? Without your balls, will your Ah Zi still love you?"
