Slacking Off and Gossiping: The Court Officials Are Not Amused

Jiang Yueyang, a 21st-century office worker, died from a cerebral infarction after working overtime and staying up late. In her dying moments, she bound to a 'Gossip System'.

She then...

Chapter 155 Am I the source of your happiness?

[Little melon, I have to say that you have a really strong learning ability. Now you have even learned the accent of a storyteller.]

[That's right.] The system hummed twice in triumph, [Otherwise, how could I possibly learn the host's insulting tricks and surpass him?]

Jiang Yueyang: [……]

Jiang Yueyang curled her lips in disdain, [I'm praising you, and you're still panting? How about we battle now? ]

Emperor Yuan is getting impatient waiting. Can you two finish talking about the gossip before arguing with each other?

The civil and military officials are also eager to expose the news. Can they please expose it quickly? Otherwise, the King of Annan will run away!

It wouldn't be fun if the person involved wasn't there.

After shooting the last arrow, King Annan couldn't wait to put down the bow and arrow in his hand and tried to escape from the scene.

You guys chat for a while, I’m not in a hurry, really not in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, the young eunuch loudly announced that the three winners of this round were the King of Annan, the Right Prime Minister and Lord Wei.

When King Annan heard his name, his eyes widened immediately. What was going on?

I shot three arrows, the first arrow missed the target and got no points, the second and third arrows combined only got 11 points, how could I possibly win?

The Duke of Yingguo, who lost the competition, General Zhenguo and the Minister of Justice looked at each other secretly, and then they all grinned.

When the three heard that Jiang Yueyang was going to tell the story of King Annan, they all deliberately lost the competition.

The winner of the competition will stay to participate in the next round of competition. Your Majesty, just stay here and enjoy your meal.

When the system heard Jiang Yueyang propose a battle, it immediately backed down. It didn't want to suffer the same psychological blow as Feng Yichen.

He smiled and flattered: [Host, there is no need for a battle. I still know my own limitations.]

[Then why are you still talking nonsense? Tell me the inside story quickly. ]

Emperor Yuan picked up a grape from the Western Regions in front of him and put it in his mouth, and finally got to the topic of today.

Civil and military officials could not hide their excitement and all showed eager smiles.

The Duke of England pulled out a handful of baked beans and ate them with a chuckle.

The Third Prince extended his hand to him upon seeing this, and then the two of them ate the crispy roasted beans together, making everyone around them swallow their saliva with envy.

Princess Zheng lowered her eyes indifferently, with an imperceptible arc at the corner of her mouth.

The system said: [The King of Annan and Princess Zheng have been married for two years without a child. The doctor said that it is not easy for Princess Zheng to get pregnant.

One day, the King of Annan picked up a child from the street, adopted her as his daughter, and registered her under the name of Princess Zheng.

King Annan doted on his adopted daughter Li Qianru and gave her whatever she asked for.

Princess Zheng was the most typical woman of this era. After learning that she was the reason why she could not have children, she took the initiative to tell the King of Annan that he could take a concubine.

The following year, the King of Annan took a woman into his palace.

At first, Princess Zheng did not know that the woman was an old lover of the King of Annan. She was very friendly to her and sincerely hoped that she could give birth to children for the King of Annan.

Three months later, the concubine became pregnant. Princess Zheng treated her even better, sending all kinds of precious medicinal herbs for nourishing the body to the concubine's courtyard.

Later, Princess Zheng gradually discovered that the daughter raised under her name was particularly close to the concubine.

Originally, she didn't take it to heart, thinking that Li Qianru just didn't like her being too serious and preferred to be close to her concubine who had a gentler personality.

It was not until three months ago that she accidentally heard Li Qianru calling the concubine "mother" that she realized that Li Qianru was the daughter of King Annan and the concubine, and all this was their plan!

Little did she know that what she saw was not the whole truth. 】

Princess Zheng slowly raised her eyes. Isn’t this the whole truth?

The experienced Emperor Yuan was extremely excited. He thought that the child must not be the King of Annan's!

He was cuckolded too!

Jiang Yueyang raised her eyebrows slightly, [From what you said, there is another story behind Li Qianru's life? ]

At first, Li Qianru was not panicked at all, but now she was panicking.

What do you mean, isn't she the father's child?

The system responded, [Before joining the army, King Annan was just a butcher and had an affair with his concubine.

But when he returned home three years after joining the army and prepared to marry the concubine, he was told that the concubine had already married the year he joined the army.

After being heartbroken for a while, he bravely killed the enemies on the battlefield with a butcher knife and was promoted all the way.

Later, he was lucky enough to save the emperor and was crowned king. From then on, the King of Annan lived a life of luxury and married a beautiful girl from an aristocratic family. Then...】

[Wait.] Jiang Yueyang interrupted the system, [Let me guess what the plot will be like.]

[Okay, host, guess.]

Emperor Yuan thought to himself, let me guess too.

The concubine must have known that King Annan had become successful and wanted to return to him, so she made up a lie and said that the child was King Annan's!

Jiang Yueyang said: [I guess King Annan must have met the concubine and her daughter on the street, and then the concubine said in tears that Li Qianru was actually his child.

The reason why she got married so quickly was because she found out she was pregnant, so she had no choice but to do so. 】

King Annan suddenly looked at Jiang Yueyang. Was she at the scene at that time?

No, she was still a baby at that time.

The system gave Jiang Yueyang a thumbs up, [The host is indeed a bookworm with more than ten years of experience, and the plot can be said to have been restored 100%. ]

Emperor Yuan was very happy, and I guessed it right!

Jiang Yueyang said with a sigh: [Only King Annan and Qin Shi would trust such a low-level method, right? ]

Qin Shi, who had just finished the first round of the archery competition: [……]

Alas...it seems that my initial impression of her cannot be changed at all.

What was wrong with me in the first place?

I was actually fooled by such a poor performance!

System: [The emperor will also believe it. ]

[Yes, yes, yes, Your Majesty is also a big idiot. ]

Emperor Yuan: ...I have discovered that you always have to take me along every time you eat melons!

Am I the source of your happiness?

Civil and military officials were puzzled. What stupid thing had His Majesty done that we didn't know about?

The noble ladies who knew that the emperor was cuckolded by Concubine Wan lowered their heads silently. We knew nothing!

After Jiang Yueyang finished teasing Emperor Yuan in her heart, she continued: "Little melon, based on my understanding of you, if Li Qianru was simply not the daughter of King Annan, you would not say there was something fishy about it.

Tell me, what is the reversal? 】

Emperor Yuan:!!! There is a reversal?

Hearing this, the Duke of England and the third prince's eyes sparkled and they stopped eating the roasted beans in their hands.

Reversal is the most exciting thing!

The system chuckled, [The one who knows me is the host! ]

【Hurry up and stop talking nonsense. 】

The system cleared its throat, [It is true that it is difficult for Princess Zheng to get pregnant, but the main reason for her inability to give birth is not her, but King Annan’s. ]

[Fuck! It turns out that the King of Annan can’t have children! ]
