[It can be saved, why can't it be saved? These are all minor issues. When I was studying medicine, I read medical books and learned medical skills in the space.]
[Yes, the multiples are different now.]
Ji Yingying prescribed a medicine for the prince: "Take it according to this method. Try it for a few days first."
"Thank you very much, Yingying."
"You're welcome, you're welcome. Can I go back now?" Ji Yingying wanted to go back to sleep. She really couldn't take it anymore after traveling for several days.
"Wait a minute!" the Emperor called out to stop her.
What's up with Old Deng again? I don't want to do anything right now. I just want to sleep forever.
"Remember to go to court tomorrow."
"Oh, I got it. Just take your time! Bye!" Ji Yingying left.
He fell asleep as soon as he got on the carriage. When he arrived at the doorstep, it was Nanny Xia who carried him into the house and put him back to bed.
Ji Yingying slept until the middle of the night, then woke up hungry!
I got up and checked the time; it was already past midnight. I found something to eat, then went back to sleep. In the morning, I still got up early to go to work.
When she arrived at the Qinzheng Hall, Ji Yingying found that all the ministers were quite nice people. After all, they all came to greet her.
On the first day of court this month, Ji Yingying did not doze off and was very energetic as she picked at the melons in front of the Emperor.
[The Emperor has more scandalous news to tell.]
[I know. Didn't we finish eating the poisoned melon yesterday? What melons are left today?]
He's in a very bad state right now, taking both poison and the antidote you gave him. If this continues, he won't survive.
【This...isn't that possible!】
[However, the Emperor's storyline has already progressed beyond what is expected. Six months later, he dies from poisoning. The Crown Prince, in an attempt to save his son, is tricked into leading troops into the palace under false pretenses, and is forced to commit suicide.]
Who will take over?
[It's still the Emperor, isn't it? The person behind the scenes had someone impersonate the Emperor, and then created a prince from the common people, who then ascended the throne.]
[Tsk tsk… What a spectacle! Look, look, is this a good spot? Look, it's gone in one careless move!]
[You are right. I will not encourage you to become the queen anymore.]
[What's so great about being an empress? We're not Wu Zetian. We'll do whatever we're capable of.]
[Yes, yes, yes, someone like you who offends people with her words shouldn't be an empress.]
[Haha, weren't you talking about the emperor's melon? Why are you here to attack me?] Ji Yingying secretly took a few grapes and started eating them.
You know what, it’s quite sweet!
She loves seedless grapes; she won't even glance at the seeded ones.
What else can I say? This is the only plot, nothing else. They haven't even revealed who the mastermind is.
[Tsk tsk... They're quite defensive. I'll tell Lao Deng about this later and have him investigate. We can just watch from the sidelines.]
Speaking of theater, we passed a shop today that actually had a theatrical troupe performing inside. Shall we go see a show after get off work?
[Opera troupe? Then do you know what kind of operas they perform?]
【I don't know. I want to see a show about Sun Wukong. Shall we go check if they have any?】
[Alright! Since the Emperor has run out of gossip, let's see what other gossip the other ministers have.]
[The lady official from the Ministry of Justice is going to discuss marriage! ]
Oh, who is this person?
The other party is a person who exploits others.
How do you say it?
[The other party used her beauty to seduce our lady-in-waiting, and then she became his mistress.]
[No way, he's really handsome? Why don't you seduce me?] Ji Yingying took out some melon seeds this time.
Hehe~ This kind of melon needs to actually have melon seeds to taste.
He's not exactly handsome, just passable.
[Hiss~ Is this girl blind? She's already an official, and she still needs someone to hook up with? Why doesn't she just go to Liuxiangju and hook up with dozens or even hundreds of guys herself?]
[No, she actually wants to borrow sperm and doesn't want a man.]
That won't do. If the person's character is bad, the child they have won't be either. If you really want a child, I'd say you should find someone with good character.
[That being said, their family only accepts marrying into the family, not marrying in, so this is difficult.]
[The only daughter in the family? 】
【Yes.】
That's easy. Find a well-educated young man from aristocratic family, have two children, and then draw lots. The child with the last name drawn will take that family's last name. It's your own child anyway.
This is also a good idea.
I'll go and talk her out of it later. She's a good girl, don't think about humiliating herself. Besides, she's already an official, and if she can't even clean up her own house, how can she possibly clean up the world?
[She was forced into this situation by her family. What could she do? Her mother even found those men for her, telling her to just keep them under control. But is that really something? Men are creatures of habit; they can bend and stretch. They might smile to your face, but who knows how many times they'll stab you in the back? You have to be careful!]
[Tsk tsk... Was our Xiangxiang bullied by some scumbag? Why does she hate scumbags so much?]
[It's not that we eat too many melons, it's that there are too many unfaithful people in the world. The melons we eat from unfaithful people account for 60% of the normal melons!]
[That's impossible. There are plenty of cases of women engaging in power struggles and rivalry within the household.]
[You said it was a power struggle within the household, a competition between women, not that she was being abused to death by a man, so it doesn't count.]
[Alright!] Ji Yingying had already cracked quite a few melon seeds, and the court lady behind her was already blushing profusely.
It seems that I have to talk to her mother when I go back today. The eldest princess has said so. Let’s see if it can be implemented!
Their family has a lot of money, but they can't let others take away their wealth.
[Xiangxiang, why didn't her family have two more children? Isn't there a policy of eugenics and one-child policy now? Now you can have as many children as you want, as long as you have the right to have one. How come they only have one daughter?]
[Her father is a weak sperm person.]
[I know this question. She's already this old, I'm afraid she's gone and can't have children.]
Yes, yes.
Ji Yingying was still chatting when she suddenly heard someone say, "Dismiss the court!" She immediately looked up at the Emperor.
Unexpectedly, one day she left the court without listening to any government affairs and without being called out. Why does it feel a bit...uncomfortable?
However, this is also quite good.
As soon as he left the Qinzheng Hall, the Queen sent someone to invite him.
Did they invite me to dine at the Queen's again?
【This is great. Aren’t you hungry? 】
"Hungry my foot! I ate plenty of fruit and melon seeds back in the Hall of Diligent Governance, so I'm not hungry at all."
[Even if you're not hungry, you have to eat. Go, go!]
【It’s going to kill the dog.】
When we arrived at the Queen's Palace, there were still quite a few people inside, all of whom were unfamiliar faces.
【Oh wow~ Is this a tea ceremony?】 Ji Yingying knew about the custom of concubines serving tea to the empress, but she never expected to see it.
Look closely, this group of people has been here for about two weeks.
Did you enter the palace on the day of the Spring Banquet?
