Mei Niang pouted, she couldn't understand why Ji Wan didn't invite her when she was so powerful and ranked first on the killer list!
Ji Wan was startled, then shook his head with a smile: "I thought that if that person was really a slave, the girl would not exchange her future career for mine.
The girl went through great pains to escape from Beirong Kingdom just to avoid being controlled by others.
If I wanted to use this as a way to blackmail you into becoming my subordinate, wouldn't that go against the original intention of the girl coming to Fanzhou?
But if you want to join the government, you will always be welcomed at the Zhenbei Palace."
Mei Niang's heart was shocked, as if she had never heard such words before. She had never seen anyone like Ji Wan since she was a child.
Is this truly cunning, or just a pretense of playing hard to get? Could any royal noble actually put themselves in the shoes of someone of lower status?
This person is so scary, no wonder she was able to defeat the Beirong Kingdom.
Shrugging her shoulders, Mei Niang said, "Then I'll try it under your hands first... Anyway, if I want to leave, you can't stop me."
Ji Wan nodded with a tolerant attitude.
Then Mei Niang told Ji Wan all the assassination plans of the "Swordsman" without reservation.
Among these, poisoning is the most important. The 'Swordsman's' plan is to smear the poison on the edge of Ji Wan's tea cup and the edge of the tray.
The poison was prepared in the kitchen of the Zhenbei Palace, and then Deji was used to make Ji Wan eat the poison.
After completing the mission, he directly chopped off Ji Wan's head and returned to report.
As for the young eunuch Deji, he wouldn't survive long if he came into contact with the poison.
Fortunately, Mei Niang had replaced the poison with floral dew when the "Swordsman" took action.
When Deji brought the tea, Ji Wan drank it all without hesitation.
He waved his hand, signaling Mei Niang, who was waiting on the roof, to knock Deji unconscious and pretend that he was dead. She was afraid that the "swordsman" would kill Deji as well.
Having said that, even though Ji Wan knew that Mei Niang was serving her voluntarily, she didn't want to force Mei Niang to do something she didn't like.
So I didn't continue asking about Mei Niang's hand strength.
First, Ji Wan had no intention of accepting Mei Niang as his subordinate.
First of all, Ji Wan is not short of people. The female barracks already has Tong Xin, General Tong.
After the Battle of Chuzhou, there will definitely be people other than Tong Xin who will be promoted in the female barracks.
Secondly, because Mei Niang clearly has the words "I just want to do what I like to do", her character seems to be one that would rather break than bend.
If she couldn't make him willingly submit to her, Ji Wan would only create a hidden danger for herself. She would not do such a stupid thing.
If you force this kind of melon, it will definitely not be sweet, and there may even be another "giant" from the Beirong Kingdom.
It’s better to make good friends.
Second, everyone has secrets. Even to their closest relatives, there are things they don’t want to tell, let alone their superiors and subordinates.
Since the other person is unwilling to talk, there is no need to dig deeper and avoid causing disgust.
After getting rid of the assassin, Ji Wan handed a messenger bird to Jiang Jian and asked him to help find if there was anyone named "Xiahou Jian" among the prisoners of war.
After the matter was over, Ji Wan relaxed in Xiling Mingyue's arms, thinking about how to solve the salt and iron problem and what excuse to use to attack the Northern Rong Kingdom...
Her desire for control began to take over again. Ji Wan wanted to take down all the people in Beirong Kingdom who were hostile to her overnight to prevent anyone from disturbing her current good life.
As I was thinking, I became drowsy and lost consciousness. After being tense all day, I finally relaxed in my mother's arms and fell asleep quickly.
On weekdays, Xiling Mingyue did not sleep in the same bed with Ji Wan in her bedroom, just because she did not want to affect Ji Wan's habit of sleeping naked.
But every time Ji Wan needed mental relaxation, he would run to his mother's bedroom to rest. Even if he didn't sleep naked, he could sleep much more soundly.
Xiling Mingyue saw this and felt very distressed.
Then he shook his head at Nie Ying, signaling him to keep quiet.
Nie Ying respectfully extinguished the candle and retreated quietly.
The next day, early in the morning, Ji Wan was woken up by Nie Ying. After getting dressed, he left the Zhenbei Palace and went to the Government Affairs Office.
I received news that today is the day that several counselors will report to Fanzhou after dealing with dishonest officials in various places.
Ji Wan specially started a live broadcast for this purpose and stood at the door of the Government Affairs Hall waiting.
Next to him was Liang Yan, whose face had become even paler. After the scare yesterday, his condition began to relapse.
I woke up several times in the middle of the night from terrible nightmares.
Deji was always there to serve him, but it was of no use. He just kept muttering "Your Highness" and "Your Highness".
Seeing that the other person still looked unhappy, Ji Wan subconsciously said, "It was my fault yesterday. I should have discussed it with you in advance."
Shaking his head, Liang Yan said weakly, "This happened suddenly. If Your Highness had suddenly gone to Xuanniao in the middle of the night, it would have aroused suspicion."
Ji Wan's heart was filled with tears, and her guilt was growing stronger. She felt that Liang Yan was simply an angel who was considerate and understanding. "Your health has always been poor, so I'll stay at the Government Affairs Office to accompany you tonight."
Liang Yan nodded reluctantly, feeling warm in his heart.
Your Highness is truly wonderful.
The first one to return was Yu He, followed by a row of officials with their hands tied and their faces ashen.
Many of them were familiar to Ji Wan, people she had recruited personally.
Then came Pan Zhuo, Cao Ke and Yan Peinan, and behind them were many officials. Half of them had been officials before Ji Wan took office, and the other half were new recruits.
Ji Wan curled her lips: "Come one by one and tell us what they did?
Today I am standing at the door of the Government Affairs Office. No one can leave until this matter is clarified!"
Yu He skillfully commanded his soldiers to force the man to kneel on the ground, facing Ji Wan.
Pointing at an official in his thirties, Ji Wan looked at the comments and asked, "What's his name? Do you know him?"
The message on the bullet screen scrolled quickly, "It's Ding Shuo, the one in charge of the stall in the merchandise city!"
"What has he done wrong? How has he oppressed my people?" Ji Wan didn't even look at Ding Shuo who was kneeling on the ground and shaking.
The comments began to frantically respond to how this person treated the people. 'He sold his stall without considering who paid more. He sold it to whoever could bribe him or pay him more!'
Ji Wan also took the account book evidence from Yu He's hand, and after carefully looking through it, he said, "He will be punished according to the laws of our Donglin Kingdom, and all the money he embezzled must be returned to the villagers."
According to the laws of the Donglin Kingdom, those who accepted bribes would be caned according to the amount of money they received. In other words, they would be beaten according to the amount of money they received.
