"His Majesty……"

Emperor Junlan looked at Li Mingzhong and said, "Prime Minister, please wait a moment. I need to have my meal first. You may all go back and continue court tomorrow."

Li Mingzhong blinked. "But tomorrow is a day off."

"Then come to court in a couple of days. I think you all have too much free time, so you all come to the Regent's Palace."

Upon hearing this, the others immediately took their leave, saying, "We, your humble servants, take our leave."

Li Mingzhong: "...Then I will also return."

They don't want any more workload; they're already busy enough, doing everything themselves... Adding more tasks would be overwhelming...

In an instant, everyone in the courtyard vanished. An Kesen walked towards Di Junlan and was swept away by a side kick...

He immediately dodged, shouting, "Your Majesty!!!"

"Why aren't you around me today? I've called you several times, but there's been no response."

Ankesen immediately knelt on one knee, "It's my fault. The Regent ordered me to send someone to inform all the ministers who were supposed to attend court that they would not be attending court today..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Junlan asked, "Did the Regent send you to inform him?"

Ankesen: "Yes, the Regent said that you did not sleep all night and asked me to inform you that His Majesty is resting at the Regent's Palace today."

Emperor Junlan no longer blamed him and waved his hand, "Where is the Regent?"

An Kesen was unaware of this, so he looked at Yi Yi beside him. Yi Yi had already knelt down on one knee when Di Junlan looked over. "Your Majesty, the mistress is in her own room."

Di Junlan was about to go find someone and turned to leave when a voice came from behind, "Miss Qiao'er is here too."

My steps faltered, and I almost slipped because I heard the word "Qiao'er"...

Is Ling Qiao'er also in her brother's bedroom?

Who let her in?

Then Yi Yi saw the figure in front of him disappear in an instant.

There was some darkness hidden in his eyes.

His Majesty's lightness skill is probably no less than that of the master.

His Majesty is probably hiding his true abilities from his master.

Ankerson stood there dumbfounded.

No. Your Majesty, how could you use martial arts in front of Yi Yi?!

You said you didn't know martial arts?! You've given yourself away! What will the Regent think of you now?!

When Di Junlan pushed open the door, he saw two faces pressed together, as if they were about to kiss at any moment...

"elder brother!!!"

Murong Jin turned her head slightly to look over, and Ling Qiao'er did the same. The two of them were doing the same thing, which made Di Junlan unhappy.

"His Majesty has arrived?"

Di Junlan's voice was somewhat resentful, "Yes, what is brother doing? It doesn't look like he's doing anything important."

Murong Jin's lips twitched, and Ling Qiao'er straightened up. "Then it's settled, brother. I'll go get busy now and organize everything I need. I'll report back to you in a couple of days."

Murong Jin: "Okay, just tell me how much you need, or you can contact the warehouse."

Ling Qiao'er: "OK!!!"

Murong Jin raised an eyebrow and heard Ling Qiao'er say, "It means good."

Murong Jin: "Mm."

I met some foreigners in my early years, and they had a phrase in their language, but they basically had to cross the sea, so there were very few, if any, foreigners who came to Da Cheng.

"I'll talk to my brother about this more often another day. I'm off now!"

Murong Jin: "Go."

After Ling Qiao'er left, she gave Di Junlan a meaningful look, her expression smug and arrogant.

Emperor Junlan gritted his teeth, but it was no use.

She came to Murong Jin's side and said, "Brother, if you're trying to provoke me with other women, that might not work."

"After all, I know this is your attempt to provoke me, so don't think you can use this method to make me give up."

Murong Jin felt that ever since Di Junlan spoke so bluntly, she had been sighing more and more often.

"Your Majesty, why do you like me?"

"I like you because it's you."

It's like saying nothing at all.

Murong Jin had already given up on the idea. "Let's go eat."

"Oh, but you're not allowed to get so close to Ling Qiao'er anymore, or she won't be able to find a husband."

Murong Jin's eyelids twitched; she really wanted to kill him.

"Know."

Yeah, right.

Once Emperor Junlan is recovered and can stand on his own, she can "die," leave this place, and revert to her female identity.

Murong Jin suddenly gave a sinister smile at Di Junlan's retreating figure.

Little brat, go find your heroine.

For two consecutive days, Emperor Junlan, who did not have to attend court, was either reviewing memorials or doing the homework assigned to him by Murong Jin.

"Your Majesty, we haven't seen the Regent for two days." Ankesen suddenly wanted to eat that Bobo Chicken, and he hadn't had the hot pot they talked about last time either.

Di Junlan knew what Murong Jin had been up to lately. "He's busy, don't disturb him."

Ankerson: "..." You weren't like this at first. What did you say every time I told you not to disturb the Regent?

You love him and can't live without him!

But now you're telling me not to bother him?

That's going too far.

"Come here, take a look at this answer and see what you think."

Ankesen glanced over, then blinked. "Wait, Your Majesty, what are you doing? I remember these questions were set by the Crown Prince's tutor when I was the Crown Prince."

"However, I have only seen this kind of question before, during the imperial examination in the Golden Palace, especially when the late emperor was still alive."

"How did you come up with this kind of question?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Junlan realized it was a topic that existed even when the late emperor was alive, and said, "It's a task assigned to me by the Regent."

"Tell me, what is Murong Jin trying to do? The answers written there are basically all for the sake of the country and its people, especially how to solve the various difficulties encountered, how to appease the people, and how to minimize the problems..."

Upon hearing this, An Kesen immediately went over and took a look at all the documents on the table.

I couldn't help but be shocked. Most of the questions were minor and detailed, especially the tricky way the questions were phrased. His Majesty's answers were also targeted and specific.

These two seem to be engaging in theoretical discussions... and they're actually doing quite well at it.

But what is Murong Jin trying to do?

To train His Majesty?

Ankerson had two questions in his mind, but he didn't voice them. Instead, he wanted to find out.

"Your Majesty, have you answered all your questions?"

Emperor Junlan looked at the last question, a series of questions about the military, and said, "Not yet. There are still a few questions. I need to experience life in the military before I am qualified to answer them."

"Then you?"

Emperor Junlan put the document away and looked at An Kesen: "Have someone make arrangements. I want to conceal my identity and experience military life."

Ankersen: "Yes!"

"By the way, hand over these completed assignments to the Regent. I will not be holding court for the next two weeks, so the Regent will be in full charge."

Ankesen's heart skipped a beat. "Yes."
