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 63 It's embarrassing, isn't it?

On the third floor of Linglong Pavilion, in the royal private room, Jiang Yueyang and Bai Yan sat opposite each other, and they had been silent for a while.

Finally, it was Bai Yan who broke the silence.

He picked up the teapot in front of him and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Yueyang, and said slowly: "Miss Jiang, were you joking with me just now?"

Jiang Yueyang said seriously, "I never joke."

Although the system is a bit useless, the melons are authentic.

"Then Miss Jiang, do you know that my mother died unexpectedly when I was fifteen? Seven years have passed now. How old was Miss Jiang then?"

"I found out about it recently."

"Then may I ask how Miss Jiang knew this? Where is my mother now? If she is alive, why doesn't she come home?"

Bai Yan asked three questions in a row, and he was obviously not calm anymore.

"Let me think about how to tell you."

Jiang Yueyang: [Little melon, can you tell me what's going on? ]

Bai Yan: Here we go again.

At this moment, he was already very sure that he could hear what Jiang Yueyang was thinking.

System: [Seven years ago, Madam Bai went out to burn incense and unfortunately encountered bandits, and then fell off a cliff.]

Hearing these words, Bai Yan couldn't help but clench his fists. That kid was right to the point.

It was when the mother went to burn incense that she encountered bandits and accidentally fell off a cliff, along with her sister.

After my sister got married, she couldn't get pregnant. My mother heard that there was a very effective temple, so she took my sister there to burn incense and pray for a child.

Then, the two of them never returned.

System: [On the surface, this is a robbery by bandits, but in fact, someone has planned this for a long time. ]

【who? 】

[Bai Yan's uncle. He actually always liked Bai Yan's mother and almost married her. Unfortunately, Bai Yan's father fell in love with her and told Mr. Bai that he wanted to marry Mrs. Bai before him. Then, he watched helplessly as the girl he loved married his own eldest brother.

After marriage, he wanted to keep this relationship in his heart. But living under the same roof, he couldn't control his heart. Finally, he had a terrible idea, he wanted to snatch Mrs. Bai back. 】

Jiang Yueyang was puzzled, [According to what you said, Madam Bai shouldn't have fallen off the cliff? Doesn't he like Madam Bai? ]

[It was an accident. Bai Yan's uncle originally wanted to imprison Mrs. Bai so that she would stay with him forever. But after the fake bandit was kicked in the vitals by Bai Yan's sister, he pushed the mother and daughter off the cliff in anger.

Mrs. Bai luckily survived and was saved by Bai Yan's uncle. She also lost her memory in a very ridiculous way! Bai Yan's father didn't find her, so he thought she was dead. 】

Bai Yan's clenched fists were shaking constantly. He was not even aware of his nails digging into his flesh, and his face looked extremely ugly.

What did he just hear?

Uncle likes mother so he planned all this?

Mother has lost her memory?

What is this?

[So... Bai Yan's mother and uncle are now happily together? ]

Hearing this, Bai Yan subconsciously held his breath, suppressed his complicated emotions and listened carefully.

System: [No. Bai Yan's uncle saw that Mrs. Bai had lost her memory, so he wanted her to truly fall in love with him. Unexpectedly, a month later, Mrs. Bai remembered everything. She wanted to go home, but Bai Yan's uncle refused to let her go, and then imprisoned her. This imprisonment lasted for seven years.]

Jiang Yueyang raised her hand in her mind, [I have a question, did Bai Yan's mother and uncle have... that? ]

The system understood and teased her intentionally, [Which one? ]

[That’s it! ]

[Which one? ]

Bai Yan also had a question mark in his mind, which one is that?

Jiang Yueyang's face turned black. [Do you want to enter the small dark room?]

The system immediately obeyed when it heard about the small dark room being shut down. [No, in this respect, Bai Yan's uncle is quite a gentleman.]

When Bai Yan heard the word "gentleman", he knew who they were talking about. After all, he was also an adult man.

However, he felt relieved when he heard that his mother was not bullied.

My mother is a woman who values her innocence more than her life. If it were defiled, she would definitely go crazy.

Jiang Yueyang breathed a sigh of relief, [It's okay, it's okay, where is Madam Bai now? ]

[In Mingyue Villa in Fengqi City. ]

Bai Yan silently recited the seven words "Mingyue Villa" in Fengqi City. No matter whether it was true or false, he had to go there.

Jiang Yueyang felt that he had understood almost everything, so he looked at Bai Yan and said, "I am very sure that your mother is not dead, she is now in Mingyue Villa in Fengqi City.

As for why she didn't go home, it was because she was imprisoned. And the person who imprisoned her was your uncle, who admired your mother..."

Half a minute later, Jiang Yueyang told Bai Yan everything she had heard from the system.

Even after listening to it twice, Bai Yan still found it a little ridiculous.

But he inexplicably felt that what Jiang Yueyang said was true.

So, the uncle he respected had always coveted his mother?

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Yueyang said, "If you don't believe me, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"How do you know all this?" Bai Yan asked knowingly.

"No comment."

Bai Yan hesitated for a moment, "Whether it's true or not, I will verify it. Miss Jiang, I did want to get to know your grandfather through you before, but now I really want to get to know you."

“We’re not a good match.”

Bai Yan: ???

"Although you look good, there's too much age difference between us. I can only accept men who are five years older than me."

Bai Yan: "...Miss Jiang, you misunderstood. I didn't mean that."

System: [Host, I have married a wife and have no plans to take a concubine.]

Bai Yan and the system's words sounded at the same time.

Jiang Yueyang: [……]

[Hahahaha… It’s embarrassing, isn’t it? ]

Jiang Yueyang's face flushed instantly, "Ahem, well, I've said everything I wanted to say, bye."

Without waiting for Bai Yan's response, Jiang Yueyang stood up and ran away.

Bai Yan looked at the figure who was running away in embarrassment and couldn't help laughing.

Jiang Yueyang felt so embarrassed that she went home without eating.

But as soon as she got home and had no time to sit down, someone came from the palace. It was Li Fuquan, the chief eunuch of Emperor Yuan.

She said that the Queen wanted to see her.

Just like that, Jiang Yueyang followed Li Fuquan into the palace without stopping.

She first went to see Emperor Yuan, and then went to the Queen's Ning'an Palace with Emperor Yuan.

During this period, Jiang Yueyang dared not say anything or ask anything.
