The current Emperor Shunde is almost half the size of his original self.
The fat on the face disappeared, and the small eyes became much bigger and more lively.
His previous sickly appearance had completely disappeared.
Looking at Emperor Shunde like this, the old man couldn't help but stroke his beard, looking very pleased.
Seeing the emperor's energetic appearance, Jun Shutong couldn't help but sigh that the system's medicine was really effective. When he had money in the future, he would arrange for it for his family as well.
One hundred crystals can completely transform a person. It’s really amazing, but... it’s too expensive, too expensive.
The emperor had not attended court for three days, and his ministers had many political matters to discuss, so Jun Shutong became a mascot again.
She moved the small stool to the side, took out a handful of melon seeds and started eating them.
Just as I was about to chat about gossip with the system, I heard a sound of pain coming from the side.
"hiss!"
"Master Wang, why are you stepping on me?"
"You've stepped on me three times this morning."
Tutor Li was very unhappy. The first two times Lord Wang stepped on his heels, it didn't hurt too much, so he just thought that the old bastard was just being careless.
But this time, he stepped on me particularly hard. If he didn't get angry, he would have thought I was a sick person. So, he couldn't bear it anymore and turned around and scolded me.
Taifu Li's tone of reproach was low, but it was loud enough for Jun Shutong and the people around him to hear clearly.
"Master Li, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's my fault for not paying attention. Master Li, please don't blame me."
After apologizing, Lord Wang did not discuss important matters with other colleagues, but continued to be distracted.
Tutor Li didn't want to let it go, but seeing that Lord Wang had a worried look on his face with dark circles under his eyes, and looked like he would fall down at the slightest breeze, he swallowed his words back.
[System, what happened to Lord Wang? ]
[Looking at his absent-minded appearance, someone who didn't know him would think he had been possessed.]
The long-lost voice echoed in the hearts of the ministers. Emperor Shunde could not contain his excitement and secretly glanced at Jun Shutong.
Except for Lord Wang, everyone pricked up their ears. As usual, as long as Jun Shutong asked a question, the system would reveal all kinds of shocking news.
One second later.
Ten seconds later.
The system's excited voice finally sounded.
[I've found the host. I'm sure you'll be interested in today's news.]
[Don't waste time, just speak up.]
Ministers: Yes, don’t waste time, just speak quickly.
[Host, do you know why Lord Wang looks so half-dead?]
【That's because he hasn't slept for three days and three nights. 】
Jun Shutong was speechless: [You only found out this little, and you have the nerve to take so long.]
[No, host, just eat some sunflower seeds and listen to me explain it to you slowly.]
Lord Wang was awake because his mother threatened to commit suicide. He had no choice but to stay by Old Madam Wang's side day and night. His current state was entirely due to his mother's torment.
Everyone was puzzled: Why would he commit suicide for no reason?
[Five days ago, Madam Wang was raped by a flower-stealing thief, and all the valuables in her house were lost.]
Upon learning of this, Lord Wang flew into a rage and threatened to report the matter to the authorities. However, Old Lady Wang refused, threatening to commit suicide if her son did so. This situation dragged on for several days. To preserve the family's reputation and appease his mother, Lord Wang eventually agreed not to report the matter. However, his mother still felt it was a disgrace to the family and demanded her death as an apology. This is how Lord Wang was tortured to this point.
Jun Shutong was so shocked that he accidentally hit his finger with his teeth.
Emperor Shunde, who was leaning forward and eavesdropping with his ears perked up, almost fell off the dragon throne.
This news is even more unbelievable than the news that his concubines poisoned him.
Mingdequan quickly supported Emperor Shunde. He thought that His Majesty was weak because he had just recovered from a serious illness, but he didn't know that Emperor Shunde was in perfect health.
The ministers below were not much better off. They all stretched their necks towards Jun Shutong. Unknowingly, more than half of the seats on the left were empty.
However, there were still a few ministers who stood there indifferently, wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads with their hands.
At this time, Lord Wang was still daydreaming, his mind full of how to solve the problem of his mother being insulted, and he didn't pay any attention to the increasingly quiet voices in the court.
[No, little system, are you sure you're not mistaken? Was Old Madam Wang really murdered by the flower-stealing thief?]
[Host, you can doubt my character, but you cannot question my ability. This information is absolutely true. If you don't believe it, you can ask someone to check it out.]
The system's energy waves were shaking with anxiety. How could the host doubt its strength?
Jun Shutong was puzzled. He wondered if this flower thief had some unspeakable habit or some mental illness, otherwise how could he do such a thing.
[But why would a flower thief target an old lady? Isn't a virgin girl attractive?]
Ministers: [Yes, isn't this virgin girl attractive?]
[Ugh, how could I follow Jun girl's line of thought? No matter if they are young girls or old ladies, they should not be bullied by thieves.]
When they reacted, all the ministers looked at Jun Shutong with strange eyes. This girl almost led everyone into trouble.
[Host, you don't know that Lord Wang's mother isn't the first victim, and I don't think she'll be the last either, because that flower thief will continue to strike.]
【What, are there other people being humiliated? 】
[Yes, there are already seventeen or eighteen old ladies in total!]
[Are they all old ladies?]
Jun Shutong felt a little dizzy. What kind of world was this? It was simply too magical.
