After all, that would be the first time that everyone would be able to hear Xiao Ruoyi's inner voice at the morning court session, so it would definitely be very exciting.
Prince Jin smiled and winked at Emperor Donglin, looking as if he was looking forward to the court tomorrow morning.
Emperor Donglin glanced at Prince Jin, his mind completely focused on these things!
King Jin smiled awkwardly and quickly covered his mouth, indicating that he would not say another word.
Emperor Dong Lin snorted coldly, held up Xiao Ruoyi's soft little butt with his arms, and let her lie on his shoulders.
Xiao Ruoyi smiled and waved her chubby little hands to King Jin, "Bye, uncle! And Brother Huo, say hello too!"
Huo Jingzhou also showed a bright smile on his face, "Goodbye, little princess! See you tomorrow!"
"Yeah!" Xiao Ruoyi smiled and nodded, "Brother Huo, you have to study hard!"
"Yes, little princess!"
Huo Jingzhou nodded heavily and swore secretly in his heart that he would learn better in the future and repay the little princess for saving his life and her kindness!
...
...
Emperor Donglin held the somewhat drowsy Xiao Ruoyi in his arms and asked in a clip-like voice, "Yiyi! Can you go to court with daddy tomorrow?"
"Hmm...hmm!" Xiao Ruoyi leaned her little head on Emperor Dong Lin's chest and slowly, she closed her eyes drowsily.
Emperor Donglin curled his lips, his eyes filled with a doting smile.
The next morning, Xiao Ruoyi woke up early and saw Wang Dehai coming to Yaohua Palace with a smile on his face.
"Eunuch Wang, why are you here?"
Wang Dehai smiled and said, "The emperor ordered me to bring the little princess to court!"
Xiao Ruoyi tilted her head, "Go to court? Should I go to court?"
Yesterday I returned to Yaohua Palace in a daze, ate dinner in a daze, and then fell asleep directly. I woke up very early in the morning.
But why didn't she remember that she had to attend the morning court?
"Yes, the emperor said that this is what the little princess promised him when she returned to the palace last night!"
Xiao Ruoyi's mouth twitched and she scratched her still confused head. She didn't even know!
[Well, since Daddy has said so and I have agreed, let’s go! ]
Wang Dehai heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the inner voice.
So, Xiao Ruoyi appeared in the morning court again, and compared to before, almost no one expressed any objection.
Leaving aside those who didn't hear the inner voice, those ministers who heard it suddenly understood why Emperor Donglin brought Xiao Ruoyi to the morning court.
He must have done it to listen to Xiao Ruoyi's inner voice and to find out which minister was disloyal to him, like those guys who had already met a miserable end.
The ministers, who had already gotten used to listening to Xiao Ruoyi's thoughts and eating melons, were all very excited, wondering how many people's melons they would get to eat today.
"If you have something to say, come to court. If not, leave court!"
Du Qiang, the Minister of Industry, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
"Speak!"
"Your Majesty, due to the heavy snow and food shortage in the north, many tribes have attacked our border. Soldiers..."
Xiao Ruoyi listened to the Minister of Works Du Qiang talking about his own affairs and immediately understood, shaking her head in amazement.
[Haha, I’m out of money, so I’m going to pluck the hair off my daddy! ]
Du Qiang, who was originally speaking, suddenly stopped talking and looked at Emperor Dong Lin with a pale face.
As expected, Emperor Donglin's expression turned extremely ugly, with a pair of deep black eyes flashing with cold light.
Du Qiang was halfway through his speech when he stuttered and couldn't continue.
Emperor Donglin snorted coldly, "What? You don't want to talk anymore? Don't you want me to allocate funds?"
"Your humble servant...your humble servant!"
[Tsk tsk tsk, isn't this just a disguised way of asking for money on behalf of the heroine's side? How dare they cheat my father out of his money! Damn it!]
All the ministers stared with wide eyes and turned to look at the Minister of Industry Du Qiang. What did he mean? Asking for money for the heroine?
"Who is the heroine?"
"Asking for money for others? What does she mean by that?"
"Who bribed Lord Du?"
The ministers who heard the inner voice lowered their heads and began to discuss in low voices.
This was not the first time that Emperor Donglin had heard of the heroine.
Hearing what Du Qiang said, Emperor Donglin's face turned very ugly, and he looked at Du Qiang as if he wanted to kill him.
Du Qiang, who was also able to hear the inner voice, was actually sweating all over and was terrified.
What? How did the little princess know his purpose?
He is not the only one who can hear the inner voice! Even the emperor can do it!
Du Qiang subconsciously raised his head slowly to see the change in Emperor Dong Lin's expression.
Sure enough, at this moment, Emperor Donglin tapped the armrests of the dragon throne with his fingers, looking at him kneeling on the ground with mockery.
Du Qiang was so frightened by the murderous look in Emperor Donglin's eyes that his body trembled violently and his head kept hitting the ground. "Your Majesty, please spare my life! Your Majesty, please spare my life! I know I was wrong! I will never dare to do it again!"
"What?"
Xiao Ruoyi tilted her head and looked at Du Qiang in confusion.
[What happened? Why did Du Qiang suddenly kowtow and apologize? ]
Emperor Donglin and all the ministers shuddered. They absolutely could not let the little princess know that they could hear Xiao Ruoyi's thoughts.
"Bang!"
Emperor Donglin slapped the armrest of the dragon throne fiercely, "Du Qiang, you are so brave! Are you sure there is a war in the north and we need help?"
Du Qiang also quickly responded to Emperor Donglin's words and admitted his mistake, "No, no! I just heard it from others and haven't investigated it yet! After I go back, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly!"
Emperor Donglin snorted coldly, "You don't need to investigate it thoroughly. I will send someone to investigate it thoroughly!"
"It's over!"
Du Qiang suddenly felt that all his strength had disappeared, and he fell to the ground with a dejected look on his face.
At this moment, Du Qiang thought, how good it would be if he hadn't heard the little princess's voice! He wouldn't have to die so clearly!
Suddenly I feel that it’s good to die unclearly!
“Drag him away!”
The imperial guards entered the palace and dragged Du Qiang, who was like a pile of mud, down.
The ministers who could not hear their own thoughts all looked a little confused.
"What's going on?"
"The Emperor hasn't said anything yet! Why do you look like you're about to die?"
The ministers who could hear the inner voices looked at those monkey-like ministers with mockery.
"Hey, we are the only ones who can hear the little princess's thoughts!"
"Why can't they hear the little princess's voice?"
"It seems that it is better not to have any dealings with them in the future!"
"Right! Anyone who can't hear the little princess's inner voice is definitely not a confidant!"
"We have no common topics! I'd better not contact them anymore!"
Now, these ministers have begun to divide themselves into groups one by one, with one group consisting of those who can hear the voices of the heart and the other group consisting of those who cannot.
Looking at Du Qiang being dragged away, Xiao Ruoyi shook her head helplessly, and her sight just happened to see Du Shuijian who was smiling brightly.
