Chapter 239 Zhuangzi's Watermelon Has Beared Fruit



What a coward who loves to cause trouble!

Fang Yulan, witnessing this, could only think: This person has been spoiled rotten!

After everyone left, Yang Dani realized that she was covered in sweat and regretted why she had stopped Ji Yingying that morning.

Her official position doesn't affect her personal life!

But she was unwilling to accept it. Why should she? In the end, she went back inside.

After entering the palace, Ji Yingying went directly to the Qinzheng Hall, where the prince was in charge of the government and sat on the dragon throne.

"Yingying, didn't I tell you yesterday that you should come to court today?"

"I do want to, but... I have a worried sister at home. She was worried that I would be hungry during court, so she left me at home."

The prince rolled his eyes. He had heard about this matter, but before he could make a decision, the emperor sent Eunuch Cao to pick up the person.

"Minister Ji!" It was Ji Cailiang calling out, and Ji Yingying quickly returned to her place.

"I'm here!" It was rare to call him. Usually, he was an invisible man when he went to court. His purpose was probably to suppress Ji Yingying. Unfortunately, the effect was not as great as that of Madam Ji.

But it’s not bad.

The practical work is also done well.

"Go back and give her a good talking-to about embroidering her wedding dress."

Yes~

Ji Yingying yawned, and her mind murmured: [She doesn't want to marry an ordinary person, she wants to hook up with a high-ranking official.]

"Which high-ranking official are you trying to seduce?" Ji Yingying asked rhetorically, looking extremely weak.

[Which high-ranking official? The Crown Prince? Prince Qi? If it were the Emperor, she probably wouldn't be picky; she wants to live the life of a wealthy person.]

[I love money too. Fortunately, I am now a wealthy person.]

Ji Yingying sighed. She was living the life of the rich now!

What, you're broke and want to hook up with girls?

[Heh, what man am I supposed to flirt with? I can provide for him with anything I own.]

What if you don't have it?

My parents are outstanding. Even if I don't have memories of my past life, don't have a special dimension, and don't have you, I will still inherit their excellent genes. Just look at my two older brothers; they have such strong moral values.

[Okay, that's true. But no, your father is a foolish filial son, and your mother wasn't strong enough before. Your family used to be cannon fodder!]

These words instantly brought people back to their previous memories. When she was just born, their family was cannon fodder and a blood-sucking bag for her uncle's family. It was only after she was born that their lives became better. His father also passed the imperial examination and became a second-class Jinshi and was hired as an official.

Otherwise, they'd still be digging in the fields right now.

Don't bring up the past. I've never had a hard life since I was born, and I won't allow myself to suffer.

Are you kidding me?! Who is she? Someone with superpowers, would she let herself live a hard life?

Are the hardships of your past life not real hardships?

In my previous life, wasn't the hardest part just those 22 years of arduous study? I'm not even counting kindergarten, let alone master's and doctoral studies. Starting at age 3 and going through all the hurdles, the hardest part was those three years of high school. It was pure arduous study, slaving away, practically burning the midnight oil. After high school, I thought I could finally catch my breath, but instead, I had to deal with university, master's, doctoral studies, and so on.

[Luckily, after graduation... Never mind, it's just bad luck. Working isn't a good life. You're right, hard times are hard times after all. After all, I still have to serve my boss and the people!]

[Host, you are the chosen ox and horse. Come on, host, carry forward the spirit of ox and horse.]

Are you crazy?!

[Hehe... Come on, let me share some juicy gossip to make me feel relevant.]

[Then let's go to the biggest cow and horse melon here.]

[Prince?]

Crown Prince: Why is he the biggest ox or horse?

[Yes, he went to the bathroom several times yesterday because he ate something wrong. Later, we found out that his son, who was not even one year old, had secretly given him something he shouldn't have, which caused his diarrhea.]

[He went to court today, still stiff and stoic. His anus is still hurting!]

【What, what did you eat? 】

[The Crown Princess prepared laxatives for the dog, but the clever boy thought it was sweet water and gave it to his father.]

[Wow, he's barely a year old, and he's already so smart. He's sure to be incredibly smart when he grows up.]

[Host, that's incredibly vulgar language!]

[No, I didn't curse anyone.]

[Whoever said that, they are all extremely smart. ]

Oops, a slip of the tongue. I meant to praise him for being so smart, but I used the wrong word.

Prince: ...He still has some dignity.

Her choice of words was inappropriate; who would believe her! Chun Chun was secretly taking revenge on the Crown Prince.

Today's morning court session was polarized, with one side clamoring for war and the other clamoring against it, since supplies and other provisions were scarce.

The noise made Ji Yingying feel uncomfortable even while eating her melon.

"Shut up. If you've fought, then fight; if you're not going to fight, then don't fight. Besides, what's the point of arguing? If you're so capable, go use your words on the battlefield and verbally kill someone."

Ji Yingying is really helpless!

"What do you think, Master Xiaoji?"

"That's a good idea. Don't we have oil? We can't use that stuff. Just spread it over and burn it."

[I talked so much last night, and we were still arguing this morning. Hmph, let's just make it a lose-lose situation, neither of us will get away with it.]

Ministers: Hiss~ We have offended her, be careful, don’t get caught, otherwise we will really have to go to the battlefield.

"Master Xiao Ji, forget it. Just follow the Ministry of War's advice!"

Finally someone compromised!

Why did this old man compromise? Wasn't he so adamant about not going to war?

【I don't know. Why don't you ask him? How about giving him an interview? Here, I'll authorize you with a press pass. Go and do the interview.】

【What a psycho! 】

You insulted me again, I'm not going to be friends with you anymore!

[Who called you a psycho? I called you a psychopath, and you're not allowed to do that!]

No, you're not allowed to curse me in your heart. That's cursing me, and it will make me unhappy.

[Heh, I'm criticizing the Emperor, I'm criticizing the Crown Prince, what's it to you?]

She shut Xiangxiang up immediately, and the morning court session was almost over. Ji Yingying felt that she could go back soon, which was really nice.

"Young Master Ji, would you like to go and see His Majesty?" Minister Gong is truly elusive; she had clearly avoided him, but he still managed to catch up with her.

Why are you looking at His Majesty? He's doing just fine, isn't he?

"That's great, but His Majesty is at the farm. Should we go there?"

Why does this feel like a big bad wolf kidnapping a little white rabbit? Ji Yingying avoided him with disgust!

"Uncle, you're such a rip-off! I don't really want to go with you. I have to go home."

"My dear niece, your uncle is not one to cheat you. I heard that the watermelons in the village have ripened. Would you like to go and see them?"

[It feels like the excuse a jerk uses to trick a girl into going home: "Sister, my cat can do backflips!"]

【You know what, I really feel that way.】

“It really is a watermelon, the one you planted last year.”

It's almost June, and the watermelons seem to be bearing fruit normally. Ji Yingying is hesitating whether to go and see?
