Chapter 61 Your Majesty, I’m Hungry
61
Lin Baige's stomach growled. He looked up at Fu Jiangyu pitifully, his mouth pouting, aggrieved but also a little coquettish: "Your Majesty, I'm hungry."
"I hope you will use this expression to tell me you are hungry next time in bed." Fu Jiangyu's breathing became heavier. He patted Lin Baige's butt twice with his big hands, let him go reluctantly, and asked the palace servants to prepare the grill, ingredients and seasonings, and prepare the barbecue that Lin Baige wanted to eat.
"The meat is strung together with signatures." Lin Baige reminded them.
He had done a barbecue once before and had someone make bamboo skewers. The bamboo skewers prepared last time were not used up, so he could use them directly this time.
Being a favorite concubine is also good. In the past, when he wanted to make some barbecue, he had to skewer the meat himself. Now that he has the imperial kitchen, there is someone to help prepare whatever he wants.
His daily meals and daily life were taken care of by palace maids and eunuchs, which brought him a lot of convenience. After traveling through time, he became lazy and learned to enjoy life.
If he traveled through time and space as an ordinary civilian, how would he have the time to do big things? For example, digging a salt well when he first traveled through time was so troublesome, but Fu Jiangyu sent people to do it for him with just a few words. If he were an ordinary civilian, he would not know the location of the salt well, and he would not be able to gather so many people to help, so this task would be impossible to accomplish.
Not only did I fail to accomplish anything big, but I also had to work hard to make a living. Within two years, I became tired and numb, and the lofty ambitions in my heart became an unattainable dream.
He hugged Fu Jiangyu's arm and leaned against him: "Your Majesty, it's so nice to be with you."
Seeing his foxy appearance, Fu Jiangyu started to tease him again, "If you want something, just tell me."
"I can't even express my feelings for you. You make everything seem like a transaction." Lin Baige pouted and looked at Fu Jiangyu angrily, "Is this how I am in the eyes of His Majesty?"
"I'm giving you a chance to tell me quickly. If you don't tell me now, you won't be able to have it again." Fu Jiangyu reminded him.
Lin Baige was about to say that he was not that kind of person when he suddenly thought of something: "I want to open a school."
Fu Jiangyu was relieved when he heard him say that he had made a request. He knew that he would not act like a spoiled child for no reason. "Hasn't it been opened before?"
"The schools opened before were for selecting talents for the court. They were considered public schools. I will open a private one and teach the students myself. It would be best if the school is located near the imperial palace so that it will be more convenient for me to go there. The courtyard must be large and have more experimental classrooms to help me research some things." Lin Baige thought that with so many tasks, he would definitely be too busy to handle them all by himself. He was the favored concubine second only to the emperor, so why not delegate things to others?
"I understand. Do you want to develop your own power and cultivate talents that can be used by you?" Fu Jiangyu asked him.
"Of course it's not for me, I'm doing it for Your Majesty. Everything I do is for Your Majesty, for the court, and for our Jin State." Lin Baige didn't want Fu Jiangyu to think he was too ambitious, and didn't want the emperor to think he was too ambitious and wanted to develop his own power. Did he think he was too old?
What's more, he had experience in assassinating the emperor before. If he were the emperor, he would have to be on guard to prevent him from usurping the throne one day.
Fu Jiangyu: "Just think of it as you doing it for me. It's good for you to become stronger. Even if I'm not around, you can protect yourself."
Lin Baige was a little anxious: "Why are you not here? If you are not here, who can I rely on? Who can still pamper me and indulge me like this?"
Fu Jiangyu pinched his cheek and said, "You know I indulge you. Okay, OK. If you like any piece of land, I'll grant it to you to build a school. If you need anything, just ask for it."
