Chapter Ninety-Three: Extortion



“Young Master Ji, I’ll go back to the Ministry of War right away and order someone to make it, wait…” Before he could finish speaking, Ji Yingying stopped him: “You can do whatever you want, this…” She gestured with a silver coin to him, and Minister Hong immediately understood.

"No problem, no problem. I'll have someone send you whatever you want right away, Master Ji."

"No problem, no problem."

[Haha, trading a musket for a set of hidden weapons is really worth it, hehe~] Although this musket is difficult to draw, it won't take her too much time.

After Minister Hong left, Ji Yingying sat alone in the private room eating.

It's been a long time since I've eaten out, and this meal was really good.

"Bang……"

The door was kicked open.

"This princess wants this private room. Manager, please arrange it." The arrogant voice rang out.

Good grief, there's someone even more arrogant than me! Xiangxiang, who is this person?

She is Princess Ning'an.

"Who is it?" Princess Ning'an looked around until she saw Ji Yingying, then she walked over.

"Guards, throw her out of here!"

Two guards stepped forward, but a waiter immediately stopped them.

"Who are you?" Ji Yingying asked softly. [This girl is pretty, but she doesn't seem to have much of a brain.]

"I am the daughter of the Earl of Wenchang, Princess Ning'an. Why don't you kneel down before me?"

"Oh, Marquis Wenchang, I've heard that you do indeed have a daughter who received the title of Princess. So it's you?"

[Xiangxiang, tell me, how did she get this title?]

[Her mother saved the Empress Dowager, who bestowed upon her this title, and the Empress Dowager also doted on her. It's just a pity that the Empress Dowager passed away, and she was still away meeting her lover, unable to return.]

【I see. 】

[You...you...uh...] Suddenly, he was choked again, his eyes rolled back, and he saw Mao Zedong again.

"I'm fine. I feel really bad about what you're saying."

Princess Ning'an has been away for a year and has just returned. She is unaware of the events unfolding in the capital; she doesn't even know that the Empress Dowager has passed away.

[This shouldn't be happening. The Empress Dowager has passed away; the whole country should know.]

[Those few days she was off having sex with a bunch of men behind closed doors. She'd be perfect for a romance film, with those long legs and that delicate skin... Ugh, I need to revise this again.]

Princess Ning'an caught her breath and immediately pointed at her, trying to speak, but then grabbed her by the neck again.

The maids and servants around her were terrified, and it took them a lot of effort to persuade her to come back.

"I'm going to kill you."

She had just bumped into him when Apple fell to the ground. Before she even touched it, Princess Ning'an was dumbfounded.

"Sister, my sister, how are you?" Ji Yingying pretended to cry: "So what if you are a princess? How can you bully us sisters? Look, my sister has been so frightened that she fainted. If you don't pay compensation, I will go and complain to the emperor."

"Go ahead and go. How could a lowly wretch like you possibly see the Emperor?"

“Who said that, Rong Er?”

When Rong Er came out, Ji Yingying immediately told him to carry the apples and go straight to the Imperial Study.

She cried all the way there, recounting how the princess had plotted against her.

Princess Ning'an had no idea that Ji Yingying had gone to see the Emperor; she thought Ji Yingying was afraid of her and had left.

After arriving at the entrance of the Imperial Study, Ji Yingying immediately messed up her hair and dirtied her clothes, making herself look like she had been bullied. Then she made Apple look like she was vomiting blood.

After confirming that there were no problems, she immediately knelt down at the door of the Imperial Study and began to cry.

"Ah... Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to grant me justice!"

The Emperor was discussing the muskets with Minister Hong, which were obtained in exchange for concealed weapons.

They all knew that Ji Yingying had prepared that hidden weapon for Mu Kaiji, so it wasn't a big deal.

"What happened?"

Just as the Emperor finished asking his question, Eunuch Cao came in and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Ji has been bullied."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Yingying came in crying, with Rong Er holding an apple behind her.

Apple looks badly damaged.

"What's going on? Quickly, summon the imperial physician!"

Ji Yingying immediately stopped crying and quickly said, "No, no need."

Then she immediately started crying.

[Imperial Physician Xuan is here, how am I supposed to act?]

"Then tell me, my dear minister, what exactly happened?" The Emperor sighed. Who had offended this little tyrant this time?

“It was Princess Ning’an. She took my private room as soon as she arrived. That room was booked for me by Minister Hong. Moreover, she smashed an apple and bullied me. I told her that I am a fourth-rank official, but she didn’t believe me.”

"Although his father is a second-rank official, but... but she isn't, sob sob..."

[Oh ho ho... The Earl of Wenchang has quite a few juicy stories. Second-rank ministers are all earls, and first-rank ministers are marquises and princes. I'll just mix them all up and see how these people handle it!]

Good idea. The marquises, princes, and earls conferred by the previous dynasty are of little use. They are not as good as the Six Ministries and some officials who do practical work.

"Guards, summon the Earl of Wenchang and Princess Ning'an to the palace."

"yes"

Not long after, the Earl of Wenchang and Princess Ning'an arrived. When they saw Ji Yingying drinking tea to the side, their eyes widened in surprise.

"Your Majesty, I have met with you."

"This humble woman greets Your Majesty."

"Rise. The Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works said that Ning'an bullied her. Is that true?" Upon hearing the Emperor's question, Ji Yingying immediately nodded, looking aggrieved.

"Your Majesty, my sister Apple was even hit by her and vomited blood. She's so fierce."

minister?

Princess Ning'an was dumbfounded. When did they get female officials?

"Your Majesty, I don't know what happened either. You'll have to ask my daughter." Wen Changbo was dumbfounded. Of all people to offend, he had to offend Ji Yingying.

This little tyrant is like a crab in Beijing now, even more unruly than a crab.

"Father!" Princess Ning'an called out in confusion.

"Rong Yi, tell me what happened?"

"Your Majesty, I have investigated and confirmed that it was Princess Ning'an who barged into Lord Ji's private room without permission, injured the maidservant beside Lord Ji, and bullied Lord Ji."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the princess must be made to pay compensation."

Princess Ning'an was furious and wanted to scold Ji Yingying, but she didn't dare to speak.

"Now that the matter has been investigated, Princess Ning'an, you should compensate Minister Ji."

"This humble woman..."

“Princess Ning’an, I don’t ask for much. Three thousand taels of silver will suffice.”

“You’re trying to extort me…” Princess Ning’an was furious.

[Oh ho ho~ Three thousand taels of silver, another sum of money has come in.]

[Host, the Marquis of Wenchang has quite a bit of gossip going on. Do you want some?]

[Hehe, what do you think?]

"Well then, let me tell you, isn't Princess Ning'an engaged now? But she's already pregnant. She plans to marry him while pregnant, making her fiancé a cuckold. Besides, didn't you just say she has many male lovers, often sleeping with seven men a night? Her body has already been ruined. And if she doesn't give birth to this child, it will be difficult for her to have children later."
