Nangong Jiu smiled.
[For example, asking them to reveal their private information in public...]
Nangong Yunxue was so upset when she heard this.
"Isn't this going to cost me my life?"
They like to gossip, so I let them do it. Isn't that good?
Lunch time.
Emperor Dongling arrived, and lunch was served directly in Kunning Palace.
Looking at the table full of delicious food, Nangong Jiu was so greedy that his saliva started to water.
Ahhhh!
When will I be able to eat again after teething?
This feeling of being able to see but not be able to eat is really torturous!
When Nangong Jiu was clenching her fists in frustration, Nanny Chen cut two pieces of fruit and put them into her little hands.
"Princess, this fruit is very sweet!"
Nangong Jiu grabbed the fruit and bit into it as if to vent his anger. He also rubbed it hard with his gums, grinding out a little fruit pulp.
The fruit tasted good. Nangong Jiu, having tasted the sweetness, scraped the flesh with his gums even harder.
Without Nangong Jiu to cause trouble, Nangong Yunxue was able to eat her fill in no time.
Emperor Dongling looked at Nangong Yunxue putting down her bowl and chopsticks, then spoke with a smile.
"Jiu'er helped me catch a few termites this morning. I've already sent people to search for them, and I expect another bountiful harvest today.
The snowstorm a few years ago caused all the treasury silver to be used for disaster relief. Now the treasury is empty, and the silver recovered will just fill it up."
"Isn't she sleepy and confused?
She didn't even remember anything, and said she would go catch the bad guys tomorrow morning and promised not to be sleepy again. She also said that if those ministers dared to say anything, they would reveal their own privacy.
Emperor Dongling became interested when he heard this: "That's great, I really want to hear about the private affairs of my ministers!"
No need to wait until tomorrow morning.
In the afternoon, I am going to summon a few ministers to the imperial study to discuss matters and solve some difficult problems.
When the time comes, I will send someone to pick up Jiuer."
"Your Majesty, is this okay?"
"It's okay. There are not many people in the imperial study. We should give them face."
Emperor Dongling laughed and left.
Nangong Yunxue was a little confused. The emperor, who was busy with all kinds of affairs, would also be so gossipy.
Looking back at Nangong Jiu who was struggling with Guozi and drooling down Xiaopang's hand, why did it feel like one was gloating over someone else's misfortune, while the other was just hoping for chaos in the world?
Forget it, I can’t do anything about it, just let them do whatever they want.
In the afternoon, Nangong Jiu took a nap.
As soon as I woke up and packed up, Eunuch Wei came to pick me up.
Nangong Yunxue directly handed Nangong Jiu, who was waving his hands and making "da da" sounds, into Eunuch Wei's arms.
Remind: "Jiu'er, take it easy, don't tease people too much, be careful not to make enemies for your grandfather and others."
"clatter?"
Make enemies? Who dares?
Even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare!
Nangong Jiuwei raised his head with an expression that said, "Just try it if you don't believe it."
Eunuch Wei smiled and said, "Madam Xue, don't worry, the Emperor knows his limits!
Besides, they can’t figure out that it was the princess who did it, no matter how hard they try, so they will just blame it on the gods who protect the princess.”
Imperial study.
The Minister of Works Zhu Chengfu and the Minister of Revenue Zeng Mingshu had just taken office when they quarreled several times over some bad debts.
In order to resolve the mess, Emperor Dongling summoned five people, including Zhu Chengfu, Wu Shilang and Fan Shilang from the Ministry of Works, Zeng Mingshu and Chen Shilang from the Ministry of Revenue, to the Imperial Study in the afternoon.
When the two groups met outside the imperial study, they were both angry and ignored each other.
After being called into the imperial study, they all became dejected again.
Emperor Dongling held Nangong Jiu in one hand and patted the jade table with the other, looking at several people one by one.
"Okay, tell me what you think. Are you going to keep arguing like this?"
Zhu Chengfu, who was of upright character, looked at the baby in the arms of Emperor Dongling.
He suppressed the urge to curse and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that our Ministry of Works has to argue with the Ministry of Revenue, but there has to be a solution to this matter.
It's not a good idea to keep it hanging like this. Isn't it better to resolve it as soon as possible so that we can move forward with ease?"
The refined Zeng Mingshu was annoyed: "You said this in front of the emperor, as if the Ministry of Revenue is deliberately delaying this matter and not resolving it for you.
I have just taken over as the Minister of Revenue. The project funds of your Ministry of Works are not in complete procedures and have a lot of bad debts. How do you want me to help you solve this problem?
How about we switch places? You become the Minister of Revenue, and I become the Minister of Works."
"Okay, come on, who's afraid of who?!" Zhu Chengfu shouted with his neck stiffened.
"When I become the Minister of Revenue, I will let you taste the feeling of being bullied."
Zeng Mingshu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "You are simply unreasonable!"
Emperor Dongling listened with a frown.
These messy accounts, each with its own reasons, may take hundreds of years to be resolved.
"Shut up, I asked you to come and solve the problem, not to quarrel.
When it comes to bickering, you're both top-notch, but you haven't done anything practical; all your energy is spent on bickering."
Seeing that everyone had shut up and stopped arguing, Nangong Jiu pointed at Zhu Chengfu.
Zhu Chengfu was stunned for a moment before he said, "My wife is an unsatisfied tigress. Every night when she's not satisfied, she makes me kneel down as punishment..."
Everyone looked at each other, and then looked at Zhu Chengfu.
When Zhu Chengfu realized what he had said, he quickly covered his mouth with his hands.
However, it was of no use.
"My sister-in-law is still the best. I wanted to marry my sister-in-law back then, but by some strange mistake, I ended up marrying my current wife..."
Zhu Chengfu had no choice but to bite the back of his hand hard with his mouth. He bit it until blood came out, and then he barely stopped biting and continued to reveal the side of himself that could not be seen in the light.
