Chapter 437 His Majesty is in a bad mood

etc.

What does it mean to take them there?

Isn't it just sending two dolls into the space?

The next moment, Xie Jingci watched as Lu Wanyin and the two children disappeared from the spot.

Xie Jingci felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

He stared at the direction where the three people disappeared like a stone, his back teeth clenched.

OK, OK.

In the past, when I came back from court, I could say a few words to make my presence felt.

Now you can't even see people, right?

Is there still a place for him in his queen's heart?

Outside the petting zoo.

Du Guangjin followed Xuan Yi and walked quickly towards the petting zoo. "I heard that the petting zoo doesn't allow strangers to get close to it recently. Even the Queen Mother has come. If we go there now, it might be a bad idea."

He was the second member of this expeditionary force to return to Beijing.

Because the distance was closer than Hou Yuanji, he did not have to arrange to take over twenty cities like Hou Yuanji. Instead, he was the first among many teams to return to Beijing.

Hou Yuanji's outstanding performance made Du Guangjin feel a sense of crisis.

He came from a wild background and did not think there was anything wrong with Hou Yuanji's methods. Instead, he was amazed.

They are all from the younger generation, and Hou Yuanji is valued by Lu Wanyin, which also inspires Du Guangjin to fight.

This is the first time to win a great victory and return to Beijing. Isn't it a good time to take credit?

Xuan Yi confidently led the way: “You don’t have to worry about this, we won’t go in, we’ll just wait outside the petting zoo.

It’s the right time to come. Every time His Majesty comes out of the petting zoo, he is in the best mood of the day.

It is absolutely right for you to come and offer your advice at this time."

Du Guangjin was overjoyed: "If that's true, thank you so much, Master Xuan."

Because of his excellent cooking skills, Xuanyi stayed in Zizai Peak the longest.

After Du Guangjin brought his clansmen up the mountain, he had the most contact with Xuan Yi among the guards.

The two have a good relationship.

As they were walking forward, talking and laughing, Du Guangjin suddenly stopped and said, "Sir, do you see that is His Majesty?"

"That shouldn't be the case. Every time Your Majesty goes, he wishes he could stay all day. He won't leave until the Queen sends him away. How could he leave so early this time?"

Xuan Yi looked towards the petting zoo suspiciously, and saw Xie Jingci walking out of the petting zoo quickly with a gloomy face.

He also stopped and said, "Something's not right."

Du Guangjin subconsciously took two steps back: "Well, it suddenly occurred to me that I still have soup simmering on the fire at home. Today's matter is not very important, I'm leaving first, we'll see each other later."

Before he could finish his words, Du Guangjin ran away as if his butt was on fire.

The Emperor's unhappiness was written all over his face.

He is not stupid, so he would not bring bad luck to others at this time.

Xuan Yi walked slowly and was stared at by Xie Jingci: "Xuan Yi, are you okay?"

He turned stiffly and said, "Actually, it's nothing."

"You are very free"

Xie Jingci's face darkened even more: "Since you have so much free time, let's go to the wilderness and see if there are any troublemakers."

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned away.

Xuanyi:

Master, do you want to listen to what you are saying?

In the next few days, the entire court felt that things had changed.

No one knows who has offended their Majesty, and the situation in the court is extremely serious.

After Xie Jingci spent an hour scolding some unfortunate minister with a cold tone on every word, taking a memorial from him, everyone reached a consensus.

They tried not to report to His Majesty until he calmed down.

If you have any problems, you can't go to His Majesty. Just grit your teeth and solve them yourself.

They even reminded the people in the mansion to behave themselves recently.

His Majesty has been very angry recently. Anyone who dares to cause trouble at this time will be blamed by the palace and will be made to die first to apologize.

There were suddenly fewer people on the streets, and the richer the kids were, the more gentle and polite they were when they went out.

However, disaster cannot be avoided.

When Xie Jingci wants to find fault, no one can avoid it.

"What's going on with the Ministry of Works? I ordered the expansion of the national treasury two months ago, and the money from the Ministry of Revenue has already been allocated. Where is the national treasury?"

The Minister of Works was sweating profusely. "Your Majesty, last time Your Majesty issued an order. To avoid offending the Crown Prince and Princess, only workers are allowed to come during the afternoon, and the number of craftsmen cannot exceed twenty. So..."

Xie Jingci glanced over coldly: "So..."

The Minister of Works was shocked and said: "I know my crime and will definitely supervise the craftsmen."

Xie Jingci felt more relaxed: "Complete it within ten days and each of you will be rewarded with 300 taels of silver."

The Minister of Industry's eyes lit up: "Yes."

I got three hundred taels of silver for free, not to mention ten days, even seven days would be enough.

He wanted to lend a hand.

Xie Jingci nodded solemnly and turned his gaze: "Ministry of Justice..."

The Minister of Justice was completely stunned. Just as he was about to leave the palace, an urgent report suddenly came from outside the palace: "Report - General Hou has returned to the capital and requests an audience with Your Majesty."

Even the Minister of Justice wanted to kneel down to Hou Yuanji.

During this short while, he had already reviewed which prisoners in the prison had not been interrogated yet, and even thought about how to make them confess.

My benefactor has truly arrived.

It’s a pity for Lord Hou. He risked his life to save him, but now he has to suffer in front of His Majesty.

But Xie Jingci's expression brightened considerably when he heard this: "Announce."

Um

Many ministers who had never been to the wilderness were shocked.

I've heard for a long time that the Emperor and Empress are very fond of Hou Yuanji, it has come to this point.

Soon, Hou Yuanji was taken to the Golden Palace.

As soon as he entered the hall, he bowed deeply: "Your Majesty!"

A group of people looked at him.

The etiquette here is much more disciplined than when the previous emperor was alive.

Hou Yuanji also felt that the atmosphere was a little off.

Why are you looking at him with such strange eyes?

Especially the one with the square face over there.

If he remembered correctly, it should be the Minister of Justice.

Why do I look at his eyes, as if I can't wait to give myself to him?

Hou Yuanji subconsciously took two steps away from him, glared at him fiercely, and then replied respectfully, "I am returning to the capital with a hundred thousand troops and two letters of surrender. Your Majesty, please review them."

The eunuch quickly took the letter of surrender and handed it over.

"My dear minister, your meritorious service is truly gratifying to me."

Xie Jingci took it and glanced at it casually, but his attention was not on it at all.

He was obviously in a much happier mood, with a smile on his face. "My dear minister, you have had a hard journey. You can return home and rest for a while. The rest of you, please withdraw from the court if you have nothing else to do."

Just listen to the impatience in his voice, who dares to spoil the fun at this time?

A group of ministers hurriedly said in unison: "We will take our leave."

Xie Jingci stood up with steady steps, and as soon as he returned to the bedroom, he quickly crushed the chip.

But in the blink of an eye, Lu Wanyin appeared in front of him with a baby in each hand: "Something happened?"

This heartless woman.

Xie Jingci felt a moment of distress.

He looked at Lu Wanyin's slightly messy hair and the two bird feathers tightly grasped in the little girl's hands, and couldn't help feeling distressed.

He casually took the little girl into his hands: "Thank you for your hard work."
