Chapter 312 Officials Fight Back



"What happened?"

Hua Mei said, "The officials in the court are all complaining about the banquet they had at our residence a few days ago, saying that Miss sent things indiscriminately."

Ye Lanyin: ? ? ?

Isn't that thing over in the past?

"I heard from Mo Qing that today all the officials came to the palace crying, begging His Majesty for mercy."

"What grace?"

"Miss is not allowed to see their mistress..."

Ye Lanyin raised an eyebrow and looked at her innocent-looking daughter beside her.

What did she do?

"Wanwan, what did you do that day?"

The little guy shook his head, looking completely innocent.

No, thank you aunties for liking Mommy.

I just gave them some gifts, and they really liked them.

Just then, the servant boy at the door arrived again.

"Madam, there are several ladies outside requesting an audience."

What a busy day! Ye Lanyin thought for a moment, then picked up Lin Wanwan and walked towards the door.

To everyone's surprise, as soon as the gate was opened, it was found to be crowded with people.

"Mrs. Ye."

"Hello, Madam Ye."

"Mrs. Ye..."

Ye Lanyin was stunned. Looking at the group of noblewomen at the door, she asked in surprise, "Ladies, what's going on here?"

“Madam Ye, yesterday I went to the street and saw some fine Shu brocade and silk. I thought Miss Wanwan could have a nice dress made for her.”

“Madam Ye, I was out shopping yesterday and I happened to see this jadeite and gold bracelet. This size is just right for Miss Wanwan.”

"Madam Ye, this is a dress I made myself, and the size is just right..."

...

Everyone was carrying a lot of things, and they were all talking at once about the gifts they were carrying.

Ye Lanyin looked at those things and was speechless for a moment.

She asked, "Ladies, what...is this?"

"Madam Ye, when we came to the banquet last time, we received a gift from Miss Wanwan, and we were very grateful."

"We happened to be free today, so we thought we'd come over and exchange congratulatory gifts."

Ye Lanyin said nervously, "Ladies, there's no need to be so polite. You already gave us gifts last time, how can we accept them again?"

“Hey, Mrs. Ye, last time it was sent by our old man, but this time it was sent by us. It’s different.”

Then, the women all looked toward Ye Lanyin's arms.

"Oh my, my little Wanwan, do you still remember your auntie?"

"Wow, you're getting prettier and prettier!"

"Look, do you like this gift?"

"There's jewelry, clothes, and all sorts of toys, come and see..."

...

Meanwhile, on this side...

On the throne room.

The officials all knelt on the ground, their faces filled with tears.

"Your Majesty, I humbly request that you grant me a favor."

"Please speak, my dear minister."

"Lin Wanwan is not allowed to see my wife."

Upon hearing this, the Holy Emperor narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Why do you need to do this?"

"Your Majesty, Lin Wanwan somehow got hold of the Truth Talismans. Last time we went to her housewarming banquet, she gave them all to the ladies, causing us so much trouble."

"Yesterday, General Li went to the government office to face his wife in court because of this."

"As a result, Lord Du's wife and children all went back to their parents' home."

Upon hearing this, Lord Wan weakly said, "And Your Majesty, look at my face, it was swollen from being slapped by my wife yesterday..."

The other officials wore bitter expressions upon hearing this.

"Your Majesty, we are truly afraid of her. We have never seen such an innocent-looking child. We beg... Your Majesty, please forbid her from going out."

The regent stood to one side, his gaze slightly lowered.

"Lord Wan, why doesn't she provoke me?"

"I also attended the banquet that day."

Lord Wan: ...Can you compare them? The Regent doesn't even have a wife!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I..."

The Regent said to himself:

"According to you, all the children in Bianjing should be confined to their homes?"

"I remember, the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices has a daughter, right? And the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review has one too, right? The Minister of the Imperial Academy's daughter is only five years old, isn't she? Oh, and there's also the daughter in my sister's womb. If my brother is to issue a decree, then you all must set an example first, shall we?"

“Regent, how can they be the same? What about Lin Wanwan…”

"How are they different? They both have two hands and two feet. Could Lin Wanwan possibly fly?"

The Imperial Academy official muttered, "It might really be able to fly; you just didn't see it..."

The Holy Emperor waved his dragon sleeve and said in a deep voice:

"Alright, shut up, all of you."

"Lin Wanwan is Ye Lanyin's daughter, and I have no right to interfere."

"And you lot, you can't even discipline your wives properly, yet you have the nerve to bring it up in court? Is this how you usually perform your duties?"

Upon hearing this, the head of the Imperial Academy immediately knelt down.

"Your Majesty, I have never been negligent in attending court."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I get up earlier than the rooster and go to bed later than the dog every day. I have absolutely not been slacking off," the Minister of the Court of State Ceremonies said in a panic.

Before long, all the officials expressed their opinions, fearing that the Holy Emperor would find fault with them and reduce their salaries.

The Holy Emperor pinched the bridge of his nose.

With a wave of his hands, he said, "Alright, from now on, you are not allowed to mention Wanwan again."

"Ye Lanyin is already pitiful enough raising three children alone, how can you people be so petty?"

"Anyone who didn't know better would think you couldn't tolerate a woman!"

Officials: ? ? ?

Who is truly pitiful?

Who can't tolerate whom?

It's clearly Ye Lanyin's daughter, Lin Wanwan, she can't stand seeing them so happy...

"By the way, Regent, I heard you are in love with Ye Lanyin?"

Upon hearing this, the Regent's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile, and he replied, "Yes."

As expected, it was his elder brother who truly understood him!

"In that case, I will bestow a marriage upon you..."

"Your Majesty!" the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review interrupted directly, "Ye Lanyin is involved with three men and is also a divorced woman. How can you marry her?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Regent is a true hero of the Holy Kingdom, brave and skilled in battle, protecting the Holy Kingdom. He is also your own brother. Shouldn't he marry a woman of impeccable character?"

"Your Majesty, please reconsider."

Many officials went to the Golden Palace to express their stance.

The Holy Emperor had long been mentally prepared for these things, but hearing them brought up in court still made him very angry.

gas.

I'm so annoyed.

The little ancestor of the Holy Kingdom.

The future little princess.

These people have absolutely no sense of propriety.

Who awakened the Purple Spirit Pearl?

Who gave them so many talismans... even though they ended up in his hands in the end.

But how can these people just take the benefits and walk away without doing anything?!

"Since all the ministers say it is not appropriate to marry Ye Lanyin, then let's just forget about it."

“Brother, there’s no need to grant this marriage. Ye Lanyin doesn’t even look at me.”
