If he comes back, the Ministry of Justice and the Court of Judicial Review will be overjoyed!
One second I was wondering who liked to wear women's clothes, and the next second I wanted to know whether Mu Kaiji had come back.
Today's morning court session was a big mistake!
After the morning court session ended, Lord He and Lord Gongsun directly intercepted Ji Yingying.
"Master Xiaoji, what have you been doing chatting about lately? Why don't I treat you and we go out and have some fun together?"
"Where are we going to play?"
Ji Yingying looked at the two of them. It had been a long time since these two people stopped her. She wondered if there had been another murder recently?
"Where do you want to go?" Lord He had just finished asking when Lord Gongsun said, "Let's go to your restaurant to eat?"
"Alright!"
As the three of them walked out, Lord Gongsun asked, "How's Mr. Mu doing lately? I haven't seen him in a long time."
[Is this an attempt to get information out of them?] Ji Yingying glanced at them, noticing their unpleasant expressions, before saying, "He just returned from traveling the martial world. He's changed. He's at the Princess's residence now. Do you want to see him?"
"See, you're still working at the Dali Temple after all. Now that you're back, why don't you come back and report for duty?"
"Oh dear, what are you saying? He's worked in our Ministry of Justice before, so naturally he should go back to the Ministry of Justice."
The two started fighting over it.
[The scene of these two men fighting over one man is really interesting!] Ji Yingying took a few steps forward and was stopped by Minister Gong again.
"Young Master Ji, it's time to report to the Ministry of Works today. You can't go half a year without going!"
"Oh! It's not that I don't want to go. Today, Lord Gongsun and Lord He said they want to treat me to a meal, so let's go to the Ministry of Works next time."
In fact, Minister Gong planned to let her go and see the weapons made by the Ministry of War. The war was about to start, and weapons were of vital importance.
"this……"
"How about we go together, Minister Gong?"
"Alright."
The threesome became a foursome, and when they arrived at the store they unexpectedly met Mu Kaiji, who was eating there.
"Detective brother, what brings you to the store?" Ji Yingying also sat down. This was his private room, and she didn't expect that Mu Kaiji could also come in.
I thought Fu Yunjie wouldn't let him in.
"I came here specially to take a look."
As for Lord He and Lord Gongsun seeing him, although he doesn't look the same as before, he looks young now!
With Mu Kaiji around, the two of them completely forgot about Ji Yingying, which made Ji Yingying doubt herself. These two people actually wanted her to take them to find Mu Kaiji.
[I don't know what these two are thinking, liking the detective so much. Two men vying for one man, it'll get hurt.]
Everyone who was about to drink choked. As expected of Ji Yingying, there was nothing she couldn't say.
…………
May passed by in a flurry of activity. On the last day of May, Yang Dani got married. She even shamelessly wanted more dowry, but she didn't want to marry anyone else.
Not wanting to think about her status in the Ji Mansion, Fang Yulan directly refused and said, "The wedding date was set by the Emperor. As for the dowry, I told you before that I'm going to increase it to 100 taels now, which is already very good to you."
"Aunt..." Yang Dani knelt and called out, looking like she was crying. Seeing Fang Yulan ignored her, she called out again, "Uncle."
Ji Cailiang shook his head: "I don't have any money either. Besides, you're marrying a scholar who might become a successful candidate in the imperial examinations next year, and then rise through the ranks to become an official!"
[That scholar...hehe...] Ji Yingying didn't expose him. After all, she had chosen him herself, and it would be good for her to marry him.
"Oh well!"
Fang Yulan finally breathed a sigh of relief after the woman got married, as tomorrow was Ji Yingying's birthday.
In previous years, we would prepare a meal for her and a bowl of longevity noodles. This year, the palace has already notified us that it will be held at the princess's residence, and the Ministry of Revenue is already making the arrangements.
"Mom, why are you looking at me like that?"
"You've grown another year older. From now on, don't worry your mother anymore, okay?"
Growing a year older...
"Tomorrow is Children's Day? It's my birthday. What a pity that my brother is not at home."
Ji Jiaming is still serving as an imperial envoy outside, and probably won't be coming back.
"It's alright, Mom and Dad are at home."
"Hmm, Mother, are you hosting a dinner party? I have quite a few colleagues here. And are we having dinner at home again this year?"
She's now an official of the imperial court, so she should at least host a banquet. Even so, is she able to manage all that?
"Don't worry about it. The Ministry of Revenue is already handling it. It will be held at the Princess's Residence this year. The invitations have been sent out. You can just go to the Princess's Residence tomorrow."
"What? The palace is helping? Isn't this our family's business?"
Ji Yingying was so busy that she was dizzy. To be honest, no one interfered with her, and she read fewer storybooks. Instead, she worked hard and worked like a slave.
"That's right, don't forget, besides being called Ji Yingying, you also have another title: the Protector Princess!"
"Oh dear, indeed, I've forgotten all about it." Ji Yingying sighed. "It's all the Crown Prince's fault. He's been conscripting men lately. I think we should just have the Emperor abdicate and become the Retired Emperor. He keeps the Crown Prince conscripting men for me every day, keeping me so busy."
[The most important thing is, Xiangxiang, it's been too long since she updated. It's been almost a month. Although she also eats melons, she doesn't eat melons with Xiangxiang! ]
"Hmm~ Are you talking badly about me again?" The Emperor's voice rang out, and everyone immediately stood up to greet him and bow. Only Ji Yingying remained seated, seemingly unconcerned, and retorted, "Your Majesty, I didn't say anything about you. You said you were sick for a while in April and then just let it go. You might as well abdicate and give the throne to the Crown Prince!"
"Yingying, what you said is so sweet!" The Emperor had someone stand up, and then sat down next to Ji Yingying.
"What's wrong with you?" Ji Yingying saw that he seemed unwell and asked him to stretch out his hand so she could feel his pulse.
"Why... did you get poisoned again? Did you poison yourself?" Ji Yingying was a little confused. Was this a bad year? The emperor had been poisoned time and again. Did he have to die when he was supposed to?
Of course, Ji Yingying didn't say it out loud, nor did she think about it in her heart; she simply accepted it as fate.
"It's alright, my condition isn't very serious this time either."
"It's not serious. It seems you know you've been poisoned. Here, these are antidote pills. Take them and you'll be fine."
The Emperor ate one pill, and then heard Ji Yingying say, "What do you want from me?"
"I was originally going back to the palace today, but after crying at your house, I came in to take a look."
"Are you going back to the palace? I thought you were going to continue playing. Coincidentally, my cousin is getting married, and there are several tables of food at home. There's some leftovers. Do you want to eat some?"
The emperor waved his hand and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came in to see you. Okay, I'm going back now!"
"Very well, goodbye Your Majesty!"
Looks like I really did come in for a quick look, and maybe even get some relief from the poison!
