Chapter 380 Follow along
"Hey! Wait!" The Minister of Revenue opened his mouth subconsciously, "This prize is..."
Before he could finish his words, he was covered by the hand of the doctor from the Ministry of Revenue beside him.
The Minister of Revenue frowned: "What's wrong with you?"
"What a great opportunity!"
Minister of the Ministry of Revenue:?
At this time, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue looked at the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue with a burning gaze, and said quickly: "The prize follows the melon, this is our chance to chase it openly! The old foxes in the Ministry of War have already rushed in."
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue suddenly realized what was going on and immediately pulled the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue back and said, "Charge!"
Soon, a strange chase scene occurs in the outskirts of the palace.
The emperor was striding ahead with Yuanruan in his arms, while the seventh princess and the palace maids were approaching quickly, holding things in their arms.
Behind them was a long line of courtiers who kept saying "Wait!" and "Slow down!" They always kept a distance from Qi Yue that was just enough to receive the melon signal.
The palace ladies nearby were stunned: ???
If they hadn't seen the official uniforms they were wearing, the palace servants would have thought they were thieves.
One of the palace maids couldn't help but whisper, "Do all officials nowadays ask to see His Majesty in this way?" Like ducklings following their mother duck, all the way to the back palace? !
The palace maids beside him kept shaking their heads: "I can't see through it, I can't see through it!"
At this time, a young eunuch who was watching could not help but complain: "Are the court officials so weak? The Seventh Princess and her friends were not walking very fast! They couldn't even catch up?"
An old lady beside him patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Stupid! Didn't you see that a senior official from the Ministry of War ran too fast and was pulled back by the people behind him? It's not that they can't catch up! It's that they don't want to catch up completely."
The eunuch was confused: "Ah? What do you want?"
The old eunuch: "Who knows. Maybe it's a game to please His Majesty."
The young eunuch rolled his eyes and asked, "May I ask what game would please His Majesty?"
The old lady gave him a sidelong glance and waved her hands: "If we knew everything, we wouldn't be sweeping the floor here, we'd go to the throne room tomorrow!"
The young eunuch's eyes lit up: "We have to find out. Maybe he will become a high official in the Golden Palace..."
The old eunuch was stunned, then waved her hand and hit the young eunuch hard on the head: "Go ahead with your dreams, a rootless guy, how can you want to be a high official? What I mean is that instead of sweeping the land here, you can go to the Golden Palace to serve people, or be a singer or something... that would be so impressive. Xiao Mingzi, go and sweep the floor."
Xiao Mingzi curled his lips, but still picked up the broom to sweep the floor, but his eyes would occasionally fall on the corner of the wall as he thought.
…
At this time, the emperor had already stepped into the door of the harem, and in the blink of an eye, his back disappeared.
Qi Yue and the palace maids soon followed.
The queen and princesses also caught up.
Only the Crown Prince, the Third Prince and a group of court officials were left standing at the door. Some of the court officials seemed to have just realized how awkward their previous actions were, and they performed eight hundred small movements in succession on the spot.
After a while, Qi Yue and the palace maids came out.
The court officials came forward, and Qi Yue ordered the palace maids to hand the prize to the Crown Prince and the Third Prince. Without saying a word, she turned around and went straight into the harem.
The court officials gathered around the prince, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
One young man in particular sighed.
This made the prince frown slightly unconsciously.
The Minister of Revenue who noticed the Crown Prince's expression thought to himself that something was wrong. Some young people were really stupid. They couldn't have a taste of the Emperor and Empress' melon and yet they were still sighing. They didn't understand the ways of the world at all!
He quickly coughed and said, "I don't know if the technology of growing greenhouse vegetables is difficult or not! I am really looking forward to it."
Other officials from the Ministry of Revenue also quickly joined in: "According to the system's description, it shouldn't be difficult, because the reward clearly states that it is a technology that can produce greenhouse vegetables based on Daxia technology."
The Minister of Revenue quickly asked, "Your Highness, may I have a look?"
