"What kind of nonsense is this?" Ji Yingying stopped reading, stood up and walked outside. Since Minister Gong wasn't there, they didn't dare to stop her.
We could only let her go.
Ji Yingying went directly to the Imperial Study, where the Emperor was summoning his ministers for a meeting. Ji Yingying had someone announce her arrival and soon entered the room.
"We negotiate every day, but there's no telling how much we have to discuss." He complained helplessly, only to receive a cold snort from Ji Yingying.
How can we not discuss national affairs? Besides, when she was in school, there were small meetings every three days and large meetings every two days. There were meetings all the time.
"Minister Ji, what is it?" The Emperor put down the memorial, looking furious, but he remained calm.
After all, this is not the first time I have seen this scene.
"Your Majesty, please have someone train the newcomers. They can't even write memorials. Look at this, it's a long essay without even getting the main point across."
"Is that all?"
"Yeah, otherwise, I think I'm tired too."
The Emperor waved his hand helplessly: "Alright, alright, I understand. I will speak up. You may go back now."
"Alright, I'm off." She even took a plate of the Emperor's pastries with her when she left. Back at the Ministry of Works, Ji Yingying read the memorials for a while, but couldn't bear to look at them anymore.
She simply went home, and by the time the Emperor sent someone to the Ministry of Works to find her, she was already at her doorstep.
Upon hearing that she had returned, the Emperor was furious.
"This little ancestor is becoming less and less able to do his job properly."
"Your Majesty, His Highness is still young."
"Hmph, she is young. I don't think there is anything in this world that she doesn't understand." Although the emperor was angry, he did not send anyone to call Ji Yingying.
They've already gone home. Even if you drag them out, they probably won't use their brains.
…………
Time flies, and Ji Yingying is busy every day. To prevent her from skipping work, the Emperor even has people watching her. Ji Yingying can only complain about the Emperor in her heart, but she has no other choice.
Finally, the eve of the Lunar New Year arrived, and Ji Jiayu got married. The house was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations from early morning, making it a very lively occasion.
Her mother was wearing a red dress, which was very beautiful.
"Mother, you look so beautiful today!"
"Thank you, my darling mother." This was something Ji Yingying taught her; otherwise, she would have just subtly told her to stop making a fuss.
Early in the morning, Ji Jiayu got ready and went to pick up the bride, while Ji Yingying accompanied some of the young ladies and princesses.
No matter what kind of banquet it is, if Ji Yingying is there, there will definitely be plenty of gossip.
In addition, many people who wanted to curry favor with Ji Yingying also came.
Everyone who came was very cautious, fearing that they would become the melon owner she mentioned, and then the shame would be spread throughout the capital.
As usual, Ji Yingying took them to play mahjong, cards, and even badminton.
Fortunately, the weather was sunny during the two days of New Year's Eve. Although there was no sun, it did not snow or rain.
Otherwise, there is no way to play this.
"Ji Yingying, Ji Yingying, where are you?"
Ji Yingying had just finished a ball game when she heard Qi Wang's voice. She quickly told Apple to stop the man.
These are all young girls. It would be fine if there were only princesses, since the princesses are his grandnieces.
"If Your Highness is busy, please go ahead and I will take care of the sisters."
"Thank you, Fourth Princess," the Fourth Princess said with a smile.
When Ji Yingying went over, she saw King Qi chatting with several other old men she had never seen before. Those men could be her grandfathers, no, ancestors, because they were quite old.
Who are these people?
[The King of Qi's brothers, cousins, are also the Emperor's uncles.]
Why are you here?
"Ji Yingying, they are here to take my pulse. They all want to see how I am doing."
"Want to live a hundred years?"
The gentlemen immediately nodded: "Of course."
“Everyone has their own destiny, so why are you all so concerned? Besides, if the King of Hell wants your life at midnight, can you expect to live until dawn? Furthermore, I don’t have the ability to create an elixir of immortality.”
That's true.
When you get old, you have to accept the truth. If you don’t, there is nothing you can do.
"You're overthinking it. I just want to take a look at your body."
"Alright then, extend your hand." Ji Yingying told the person to extend their hand.
After taking the pulse, he said shortly, "These are all old age diseases, rheumatism, and also because drinking too much when you were young was too harmful to your health."
"The same to you."
"You too, you're even worse off, all your energy has been drained. Don't sleep with women anymore, if you can't get it up, you just can't get it up."
Upon hearing this, the old men's faces turned red. How could such a young girl say such a thing?
Don't be shy!
"What kind of look is that? Can't I, a doctor, tell the truth? Then don't come to me for a checkup, I can't tell." Ji Yingying chuckled twice and turned to leave.
Those old men tried to use their status to intimidate her, but not only did they fail, they were also lectured by the King of Qi.
Back in the backyard, after playing for a while, Ji Yingying was about to call people to the front hall to prepare to welcome the bride and watch the wedding ceremony.
Xiangxiang suddenly said: [Host, someone is trying to poison someone, to the point of death.]
[Who? My family doesn't have any enemies. No, I do. Could it be that he is my enemy?]
In this case, no one is in a hurry to take action. They just want to know who drugged whom and who was poisoned.
[It wasn't you, it was the Fourth Princess. Didn't she get married to someone else?]
[Ishino Akira, that little brat?]
[Yes, the person who drugged the princess wanted to drug the fourth princess later. Once she died, she could live with that prince.]
Who targeted the Fourth Princess?
[The maidservant beside her, that prince, is so easy to seduce and very coquettish.]
[Can't the Fourth Princess control him? ]
[She was able to control it, and she actually liked the Fourth Princess. You know, sometimes some unpleasant actions can be interpreted as hints. And so, Shui Lingling was misunderstood.]
"You mean to say that the maidservant beside the Fourth Princess misunderstood that the Fourth Prince Consort was making some moves? She even thought that the Fourth Prince Consort had a crush on her?"
That's exactly right. In reality, the Fourth Prince Consort's heart is only with the Fourth Princess.
"Then let the Fourth Princess deal with that maid. Really, it doesn't matter if she's in love or a bitch, as long as she doesn't ruin my wedding banquet."
Ji Yingying glanced at the Fourth Princess, who was about to drink tea, and then said, "Fourth Princess, please have your maid go back. I've found that she's not suitable to be here, as she's disrupting my second brother's wedding."
"Okay, I'll let her go back." As for what to do, I'll naturally deal with it when she returns to the palace.
The palace maid had just bought the medicine and planned to wait until the banquet to drug Ji Yingying and kill her at that time. This way, no one would investigate, let alone her. After all, she had heard that Lord Ji was very good at investigating cases, but she just didn't know how to do it.
