"Now that I have the help of my royal sister, I will definitely be able to escape death!"
The princes all looked envious at the second prince.
Xiao Ruoyi glanced at her brothers and sighed helplessly, "Alas, should I say it or not, our family is just a foil for the male and female protagonists, our family is cannon fodder, and our family died miserably! But luckily I came, otherwise I, the little princess in the cold palace, would have died without anyone knowing! Hehehe, but compared to others, I am still good, it is much better than my eldest brother being trampled to death by a horse, my fifth brother being shot through the heart by arrows, and my sixth brother being suffocated to death in a cesspool!"
The eldest prince, the fifth prince, and the sixth prince trembled violently when their names were called.
The eldest prince took a deep breath, and a thin layer of cold sweat was clearly visible on his forehead.
The fifth prince subconsciously touched his whole body and said, "Fortunately, fortunately, I am still fine! I don't want to die from arrows piercing my heart. It's too painful!"
The seven-year-old Sixth Prince had red eyes and was almost crying. He turned to look at his brothers. If Prince Jin had not quickly covered the Sixth Prince's mouth, Xiao Ruoyi would have discovered him.
He is just a child, and now he hears his own end, and it is so miserable. It is good that he is not scared.
As for the others, they couldn't help but look at the princes with sympathy.
They never imagined that without the little princess, their future would be so miserable. The thought of it made them shudder and break out in cold sweats.
...
...
Prince Jin picked up the Sixth Prince and turned to leave first. Fearing that Xiao Ruoyi would notice something was wrong, he whispered words of comfort in his ear.
"It's okay, it's okay. Your Imperial Sister Yiyi is here! You will be fine!"
The Sixth Prince wiped his tears and nodded his head, "Yes, yes, yes! I get it! As long as Sister Yi Yi is here, nothing will happen to me! I want to hug Sister Yi Yi's thighs!"
The King of Jin smiled and patiently advised the Sixth Prince, "Yes, your sister Yiyi is very powerful. You must obey her in everything. If anyone bullies your sister, you must stand in front of her, understand?"
The Sixth Prince nodded heavily, "Uncle, I know, don't worry! I will never let anyone hurt my sister!"
"Well, very good!" Prince Jin was very satisfied with this, and then he patted the Sixth Prince's head with a smile, "Don't worry, with your sister Yiyi here, you won't die so miserably, but will live well and live a long life!"
"Yes! I will!"
At this moment, a group of people came from a distance. Prince Jin looked up and saw Emperor Donglin in casual clothes walking towards him with Wang Dehai and others.
"Royal brother?"
"Father!"
Emperor Donglin looked at Prince Jin and the others, "Why are you here?"
"Father, I don't want to die so miserably! I don't want to be suffocated in a cesspool!" The Sixth Prince raised his head and looked at Emperor Donglin with tears in his eyes.
Emperor Donglin was slightly stunned. What was going on? His sixth son was suffocated to death in a manure pit? How miserable was this death? Which one was stinkier, the feces or the corpse? Too tragic, right? It seemed that his death was not much different from his own!
Emperor Donglin patted the Sixth Prince on the head and asked, "What on earth happened?"
Prince Jin touched his nose and told Emperor Donglin what Xiao Ruoyi had just said in her heart.
Emperor Donglin's face instantly darkened, "How dare you!"
"Brother, what are you going to do?"
Emperor Donglin turned to look at Wang Dehai, "Investigate thoroughly! Make sure there is solid evidence and kill them directly!"
If one person is killed casually, the male and female protagonists mentioned by Xiao Ruoyi will find out that something is wrong. Then, the problem can be easily solved by using the ministers who have heard the inner voice.
In this way, even if they hear about it, they will think that it is their enemy who is making a move and it is unlikely to arouse suspicion.
"yes!"
Emperor Donglin turned to look at Prince Jin, "Let's go and see how many monsters there are at the banquet today!"
"yes!"
Prince Jin smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that after today, there would be some movement in the court!
"The Emperor has arrived!"
The ministers almost followed Emperor Donglin's footsteps to the princess's mansion.
Emperor Donglin changed his clothes after the morning court session and came to the princess's residence, and the ministers also needed to change out of their court clothes after the morning court session before they could come.
Compared to Emperor Donglin, they arrived a little later.
In order to get to the princess's mansion as soon as possible, everyone who could ride a horse rode one.
"Your Highness!"
Everyone knelt down, but Xiao Ruoyi was the only one who did not. Instead, she happily jumped and ran towards Emperor Donglin.
“Daddy!”
Emperor Donglin squatted down and held Xiao Ruoyi in his arms.
"Yiyi, are you satisfied with today's banquet?"
Xiao Ruoyi nodded her head happily, "Yeah! Very satisfied!" She leaned close to Emperor Dong Lin's ear and said, "He also gave me a lot of treasures! I like them all very much!"
Emperor Donglin smiled indulgently, "As long as you are satisfied!"
A cunning little fox smile appeared on Xiao Ruoyi's chubby and cute face, "Hehehe, you can come more often in the future!"
Emperor Donglin and Xiao Ruoyi looked at each other, and both saw the look of plotting against each other in each other's eyes.
Whether the ministers came to the princess's mansion or not, they all felt a chill on their backs and shivered.
They didn't know that they had been plotted against by Xiao Ruoyi and Emperor Dong Lin, and their purses began to tighten.
Whenever the princess's mansion holds a banquet, they will have to pay a lot of money to experience it every time in the future.
Especially in the future, when Xiao Ruoyi would occasionally offer opportunities for overnight stays, these ministers would scramble for them every time.
Anyway, in the future, as long as Xiao Ruoyi has a princess mansion, even if Donglin Kingdom becomes more and more prosperous, the ministers will not have much savings in their homes.
As the auctions became more frequent, the people who had originally visited the princess's mansion no longer had much money, and their properties were bought by other officials' families with some small capital.
The cycle continued, and Emperor Donglin's treasury became more and more full because of these ministers. Whenever the country needed money, Emperor Donglin could spend it generously without any hesitation.
Emperor Donglin smiled and turned to look at the ministers, "You heard it too, right? How do you feel about the banquet at the Princess's Mansion today?"
"Good! Very good!"
"Yes, there is no party better than this one!"
"Please host more banquets in the future, little princess!"
"Yes, yes! Then the little princess can also make more friends!"
Emperor Donglin was very satisfied with everyone's reactions and answers. These were exactly what he wanted.
Since they wanted to do it, it was no wonder that he was "ruthless" to them.
