Chapter 115 Chapter 115 "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Beg...

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The beggar knelt down without hesitation, shouting and kowtowing, very happy.

The prime minister hesitated to speak, and was stunned for a long while. He subconsciously wanted to kneel down as well, but before he knelt down, he stood up again. Suddenly, he remembered what he was going to say, so he decided to kneel down.

He knelt down in front of Bai Tianming. Although his eyes were still a little dazed, his words were sincere. He was panicked in his heart, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I can't! I can't! I am a man! I am the prime minister! I can't make things and give them away!

If I must give him something, I can give him everything I own! My money, my servants, my house! I can also give him my daughter! Even my son, my wife! It’s all right!”

He had a stunned expression, tears in his eyes, and looked extremely sad. His voice trembled slightly, and he became increasingly uneasy and questioned his life: "Why me? Why?"

Bai Tianming watched him for a moment, as if he had suddenly noticed movement on his fishing rod. A joyful expression, almost like a good harvest, gradually emerged on his face. He smiled with interest and said, "Because you're the most interesting!"

Bai Tianming sat on the throne, spreading his hands to him, a faint smile on his face. He explained patiently, as if facing a death row inmate, "Think about it, giving a woman to a man is meaningless. Giving money to a poor person is also very common. Giving a high-ranking person to a lowly person is a little interesting, but that's all. But if you give a proud and wealthy person like you to a lowly and poor person, it's better than giving away a stone, right?"

The prime minister moved his lips, his face full of patience, and he stopped crying. He gritted his teeth and wanted to say, why not just give the stone directly?

In fact, there was no need to ask this question, because it was useless to ask. He knew in his heart that it was too late to say anything now that things had come to this point. Maybe Bai Tianming had planned it all along, but suddenly he couldn't stand him and wanted to kick him out.

Anyway, he is powerful. Even if he goes out today, he will come back tomorrow. There are so many people in his family. Why should he worry about anything else?

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and with red eyes, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Bai Tianming, thinking that from now on, all ties would be severed. His face showed a loyal and reluctant expression, as if being forced to leave was something worth mourning, rather than pure humiliation. "Your Majesty, I thank you!"

Bai Tianming waved at him as if he was chasing away a wild cat, lowering his eyes, his face expressionless, and said with a hint of impatience in his voice: "Go, go!"

The beggar and the prime minister left the palace with the bag of gold coins.

Those gold coins were enough for a poor person to live for a lifetime, enough for an average person to live for most of their lives, but only enough for a rich person to live for a month. The prime minister was undoubtedly a noble, and whether he could survive after leaving was up to them.

But it would be too boring to just let them go like this.

Bai Tianming thought for a moment and waved to someone next to him: "Follow them secretly, write down their affairs, and tell me later. Remember to send a letter every day, and I will have someone receive it."

The guard nodded and turned to leave.

"Let's stop here today!" Bai Tianming waved slowly to everyone and said with a lack of interest.

Just as everyone was about to leave, Bai Tianming suddenly called out to them, "By the way, when you come tomorrow, remember to bring something with you. It's still too boring now."

Some people couldn't help but ask: "There are already so many cards, isn't that enough?"

Bai Tianming sneered, "Not enough. What's that? It's meaningless! What's the point of following the rules? What's the point of doing things step by step? You like it, but I don't."

He stared at the man for a while, until the man's legs began to tremble and he knelt on the ground begging for forgiveness. He looked away with a blank expression and said slowly, "Go away."

The man crawled away.

The next day, Jacob went to court with a pot of flowers.

He presented the pot of flowers to Bai Tianming, and bowed slightly, full of confidence and with a hint of subtle hint, and said to Bai Tianming meaningfully with a smile: "This is not an ordinary flower, it is a magical flower!"

"What's so magical?" Bai Tianming looked at the flower, picked up a pen from the table, poked the petals, picked up the stamens, but didn't notice anything special, so he asked absentmindedly.

"This flower will fully open tonight," Jacob stood up and explained carefully, as if he were teaching a baby who knew nothing. "When the time comes, just let the moonlight fall on it, and it will expand and grow until it can hold a person. Put anyone in, and after a while, the flower will spit out a new person, a beautiful person, a person full of mucus, a person like a statue to be admired and displayed."

Bai Tianming showed some interest, but not much. He raised his eyes and poked the flowers in front of him with his pen again, thinking: "What's the point? What do I need new people for?"

"It's said that man can contact the Mother of the Black Goat," Jacob blinked and said slowly, "and even become the incarnation of the Mother of the Black Goat, bringing joy and fertility to the world."

"Oh," Bai Tianming tilted his head and thought for a moment, then gradually began to laugh, "Things are starting to get interesting."

He put down his pen, pinched the flower close at hand, and said with a smile, "Then this flower will stay in the palace tonight. Where did you get it?"

Jacob held his head high and replied proudly, "After leaving court yesterday, I wandered around the market, hoping to find something interesting to present to Your Majesty.

A young man in a blue turban stopped me and asked if I wanted anything in particular. When I said yes, he led me into a dark room and showed me what it was.

He told me that this was his treasure, and he would never show it to anyone. If he hadn’t seen that I was rich, he would never have let me know that I had such a thing. He also said—"

Jacob suddenly hesitated, as if he had something to hide that he didn't want to say in public. He coughed twice, lowered his head, and hesitated whether to say it or not.

Bai Tianming asked him, "What did you say?"

Jacob blinked, slowly raised his head, and replied, "He also said that anyone who witnesses this flower blooming has a chance of becoming a believer of the Black Goat Mother and receiving the statue of God bestowed by the Black Goat Mother. Those who receive the statue can use anything for daily offerings, including indulgence if necessary."

He seemed to have prepared something to say a long time ago, but he was still a little embarrassed in the end. After he finished speaking, he forced himself to keep a straight face and tried to pretend that nothing had happened, hoping that his face would look normal, but his face gradually turned red.

Bai Tianming raised his eyebrows and understood what he meant. Although he didn't say it very clearly, perhaps shyness still affected his language expression, but it didn't matter.

Bai Tianming slapped the table, laughing like a cat with a ball of yarn. "That's all the more reason to keep this pot of flowers! I'll reward you!"

He thought for a moment, then suddenly pulled out a token from the table and tossed it to Jacob, who was standing not far away with his head bowed. He smiled as if he were throwing a piece of candy and said, "I'll reward you with the position of prime minister! This position just happened to be vacant a while ago!"

Jacob took the token in a hurry. Before he had time to see what was written on it, he heard Bai Tianming explain it clearly. He gasped, widened his eyes, and looked surprised.

Joy overflowed from his eyes.

He blinked his eyes quickly, trying to control himself, but he had just taken the position and was still a little unskilled. Instead, his face became even redder, as if he was extremely excited.

Bai Tianming supported his chin with one hand, put his arm on the table, squinted his eyes, and looked at him with a smile, as if looking at a stray cat stunned in front of a bowl of minced meat.

He reacted and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude. His face flushed red as he shouted, "Thank you, Your Majesty! I will do my best!"

His voice was so loud that it seemed as if he had a trumpet in his throat.

The entire court was shaken as if it had been kicked.

Bai Tianming laughed out loud: "Get up!"

Joshua finally couldn't bear it any longer. He took a step forward, away from the crowd, and stood before Bai Tianming. He shouted, "Your Majesty! You can't do this! This is ridiculous! This is too casual! He's the prime minister, not just any button you can find on the street and put it on anywhere!"

Bai Tianming was stunned for a moment, then laughed at his analogy: "I never realized before that you have such talent."

Joshua was instantly enraged. It felt like he was about to ask someone to put out a fire, only to have a glass of water thrown in his face. It was both ridiculous and tragic. He thumped to his knees, his knees hitting the ground. His voice practically trembled, his brow furrowed tightly, and he shouted in extreme grief and indignation, "Your Majesty!"

Bai Tianming glanced at the floor, frowned slightly, turned to the maid beside him, pointed to the area below Joshua's knees, and said lazily, "The carpet seems a little thin today?"

The maid opened her eyes wide and quickly knelt down, her eyes red and her face mournful, panic-stricken, she kowtowed and said, "I laid it out according to the old situation!"

Bai Tianming waved his hand, and a servant immediately came over and dragged the maid away.

The maid struggled and shouted, "I didn't lay it! I didn't lay it! I laid it! There can't be any mistake! This must have nothing to do with me! Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Spare me, Your Majesty!"

Joshua listened to the maid's cries and staggered, almost fainting on the ground, but he forced himself to stand up and looked directly into Bai Tianming's eyes: "Your Majesty should not do this!"
