Chapter 50 You Have Finished My Speech
The emperor first ordered the chief of the palace guards to arrest the doctor of the Du Shui Si.
Then he returned to Yangxin Palace in silence without speaking to anyone.
He sat there in vain for the whole afternoon, and then took the queen aside for a candlelit night talk.
Late at night, the queen was so sleepy that she took a flower and gave it to the emperor, saying, "When you are hesitant, why not let God decide? Your Majesty, tear off the petals. One petal will pardon you, one petal will kill you. When you have torn off the last petal, you will do whatever is left."
The emperor said with a straight face: "Nonsense."
The Queen yawned and said, "This is the young Imperial Master's idea. If Your Majesty doesn't agree, then forget it."
The emperor choked up and said, "Only you would ignore me like this."
"I dare not." The empress quickly massaged the emperor's shoulders, and while massaging, the empress fell asleep.
The emperor was speechless. He looked at the flowers in silence for a while, then picked up a flower and tore off a petal.
Then, the chief eunuch outside the palace spent the whole night looking for flowers to give to the emperor.
The eunuch really wanted to complain: Your Majesty! If you like to tear the petals, why don't you let the servants bring them all in at once? It's really weird to bring one flower every cup of tea.
…
The next morning, Yuan Ruan was carried into the carriage while still half asleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she found the sun was shining high in the sky and she was lying in a strange yet familiar place.
What is unfamiliar are the palace maids and the decoration and furnishings inside the palace, and what is familiar is naturally the jadeite covering the bed.
The Seventh Princess came over, with two dark circles under her eyes, and said softly, "Ninth sister. Mother said that the Empress cannot be snatched away, but Concubine De can still compete. Wait for me to pick you up in advance."
Yuan Ruan immediately touched the other person's cheek:
【I will miss you! Muah.】
A smile appeared on Wu Yue's cold face. She gently kissed Yuan Ruan's cheek and said, "The Queen is meeting with the wives of the court officials and will not be back until two hours later. Sister will accompany you first."
After saying this, she took the milk soup from the palace maid and fed it to Yuan Ruan herself.
[Hmm, it tastes a bit fishy.]
Wu Yue paused when he heard this and deliberately said, "Ninth sister frowned, probably because it smelled fishy."
She asked the kitchen to make another portion of milk custard.
While the Seventh Princess continued to feed Yuanruan, she also told the palace maids who served Yuanruan in detail about Yuanruan's living habits.
The palace maid was surprised by the huge content and finally had to write it down with a brush.
Yuanruan was moved, and after drinking the milk, she couldn't help but kiss Wu Yue again:
[So thoughtful. I can’t bear to part with it.]
System: [Yes. But the Queen should be fine. Look at the decoration of this room, it is all jade. Tsk tsk, even your jade bed has been moved here. The Queen must have asked Rongpin about your details. She will definitely pay attention to you.]
Yuanruan nodded in a good mood.
Wu Yue played with Yuan Ruan until lunch time, until Rongpin came to call them. Wu Yue left after saying that she would come back later.
Yuanruan said to the system:
[Tong'er, have you completed the main mission of National Destiny? ]
System: [No! But there is no word of failure either. The doctor from the Du Shui Si is probably still in jail.]
Yuan Ruan couldn't help but roll over on the bed: [What a pity, that's 8 points. If I can get it, I'll be closer to the next magical power.]
The system also sighed: [Yes! Speaking of magical powers, I think of the host's ability to use the first-level electromagnetic attraction and repulsion to create a visual effect of the dark cloud thunder that even the ninth-level magical power could not. I admire you, the future king of kings.]
Yuan Ruan chuckled.
She woke up from a nap and the palace maid carried her out for exercise.
Yuan Ruan saw that the palace maid kept bending over and leading her, and many beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Yuan Ruan pushed the other person away, and moved forward little by little by holding on to the wooden door against the wall, slowly building up his leg strength.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a noisy sound coming from the front.
"Drive! Drive! Go!" "How come you are not as strong as a dog, you stupid slave!"
Yuan Ruan leaned against the doorpost and looked over. A boy about eight years old, wearing an exquisite robe, was riding on a crawling eunuch, holding a wooden sword high.
Opposite them were kittens and puppies that were nearly dead from being stabbed by wooden swords.
Yuan Ruan almost exploded: [This is too annoying! This naughty kid must be taught a lesson! ]
System: [Yes! Get him!]
The boy turned his head. He had a cute and delicate face, but his raised smile made his expression look particularly vicious. He said contemptuously, "Where did this ignorant person come from..." The eunuch next to him quickly came over to talk to the boy.
The boy's expression changed slightly.
He urged the eunuchs below to crawl over, looked at Yuan Ruan twice more, and then said: "You are the little imperial teacher. Humph, come over and call me Fifth Brother sweetly, and I will let you play with my mount."
Yuan Ruan smiled slightly and stretched out her chubby little hand.
The fifth prince clicked his tongue and said, "How cowardly." He also stretched out his hand, and the next second he screamed "Ah!", his whole body shaking, and his hair all stood up like a hedgehog.
The eunuchs had never seen such a fight. One of them ran out in a hurry to ask for help, while another kowtowed and begged the young imperial master to spare his life.
"You, you wait!" The Fifth Prince, whose head was almost smoking, glared at Yuan Ruan fiercely, "How dare you treat me like this! Father will definitely kill your whole family."
"How dare you!" A deep voice suddenly rang out.
All the palace maids and eunuchs who were still standing fell to their knees.
The emperor in a dragon robe strode over, without even glancing at the eager Fifth Prince, and picked up Yuan Ruan and said, "The Fifth Prince has a bad temper and is reckless. I hope Jiu'er is not hurt."
The fifth prince almost spat out a mouthful of blood and jumped up and said, "Father! I didn't do anything. I greeted her in a friendly way, but she electrocuted me."
Yuanruan was very unhappy:
[If he hadn't abused the cats and dogs in the garden, why would I be so angry? ]
The emperor's face darkened, and he slapped the fifth prince in the face: "How dare you make excuses? I saw you torturing animals again. Now go and kneel in the ancestral hall. When you realize you are wrong, you will stand up again."
The fifth prince shuddered: "Father, Father, I don't have..."
The emperor passed him directly and walked away in big strides.
When the emperor's back disappeared, the fifth prince looked pitiful one second, but slapped the eunuch several times the next, and said angrily: "Didn't I tell you to hide?!"
The eunuch looked at the ground that had been cleaned up long ago with grievance, wondering how the emperor knew it, but he didn't dare to say more.
At the same time, the system is also advocating:
[Well done, Ah Ruan! You naughty kid, you won’t become anything unless you give him a shock. I’ll give him a shock every time I see him from now on! ]
Yuanruan: [Hmm.]
System: [That kind of naughty kid must have a melon, do you want to eat it, Ah Ruan? ]
Yuan Ruan: [Of course... Hey, wait, why did big brother bring me to the meeting room? Hiss, my nephew, Prime Minister Li, and Prime Minister Wang all look so serious, and why is the doctor of the Water Conservancy Department kneeling in the middle? Tong'er, put aside the other people's melons first and take a look here.]
At this time, the prince and the other two all looked at Yuan Ruan with puzzled expressions.
The prince stood up and saluted, "Father, you are..."
The emperor pinched his brows and said sternly: "I have other ideas, but..."
System: [Host, haha, I have updated the gossip about Zhonglang of Dushuisi. Your elder brother found a substitute for him to wait for execution at Wumen. Zhonglang of Dushuisi will hide his identity and build canals for the rest of his life. In this way, it is estimated that his brother Shutong will also work for Daxia. ]
emperor:……
Very good, you have finished my speech! What else can I say?
The prince and the other two suddenly realized what was going on, looked at the emperor's speechless expression, and tried hard to hold back their laughter.
Yuan Ruan: [My nephew's intelligence system is really amazing. Tong'er, have I completed my mission to save the country? ]
System: [No, this national destiny mission release mechanism is a bit rigid, and the death of the substitute seems to be considered as death. However, the Shutong brothers have returned to Daxia, and meeting them in the future will definitely inspire better national destiny missions. ]
Yuanruan: [Okay.]
System: [In fact, the emperor does not need to use a substitute, nor does he need to be so wary of the doctor of the Du Shui Si. He is not doing this spies voluntarily. A small trick can completely subdue the opponent.]
The Emperor, the Crown Prince and the other four: !!!
What?
The other party is not doing the detailed work voluntarily?
Is there any way to completely win back the other party?
Is there such a good thing?
