Bai Chi's words surprised the prime minister.
Bai Chi quickly took a small stool and sat next to the desk. There was only a small brazier in the room, and he didn't want to suffer from it.
Seeing Zai Guan close the door and then hurriedly close the window, Bai Chi was speechless.
"Dad, there's a charcoal fire in the house and the windows are open. Don't worry, there's no one outside. I'll find out if there's anyone."
When he came in, he had already used his mental power to create a barrier. Not to mention the people outside, even if someone pushed the door open now, they would not be able to see the two of them.
What's more, there is a thick screen in front of the window, which does not hinder the ventilation in the room, but blocks the cold wind from directly entering.
The Prime Minister looked outside in disbelief. The temperature had dropped significantly today, and except for those who had to go out, almost no one would wander around outside for no reason.
After confirming that it was safe, he returned to his desk with a frown on his face.
"Xiao Chi, what did you mean just now? Our family has a prime minister and a queen, how can it be the end?"
Bai Chi was too lazy to talk nonsense and said bluntly: "Dad, I just discovered a secret today. The dog emperor was deliberately getting close to me. I accidentally heard him talking to his men today."
Having said that, Bai Chi's face looked very ugly, and there was deep sadness in his eyes.
"Dad, the dog emperor said that after he takes back the power scattered among the civil and military officials through you, he will find a way to destroy my daughter and the Feng family!"
Bai Chi immediately sobbed and exaggerated the story of how he "discovered the secret".
Except for the "discovery of secrets", everything else is true, even the dog emperor first asked him to care about the concubines in the palace, and then falsely accused him of being a man, causing chaos in the harem, etc.
It can be said that Bai Chi used the excuse of accidentally discovering the Dog Emperor's secret plan to tell the Prime Minister everything that might happen in the future.
Although becoming the prime minister was a coincidence, after serving as an official for so many years, he naturally knew that people's hearts are not as pure as they used to be, and he also knew that the mind of the emperor is hard to predict.
So, after hearing what Bai Chi said, the prime minister did not even doubt his daughter's gender, but just slammed the table in anger.
"What a traitor! I just told your mother about Niao'er's marriage today, and he actually had such malicious thoughts!"
Niao'er is the second daughter of the Feng family. She is only one year younger than Bai Chi, and now is the time to discuss marriage.
Bai Chi wiped the corners of his eyes, wiping away the tears he had tried so hard to squeeze out.
"Father, Niao'er's marriage can go ahead. I know a little bit about the son of the Shangshu family. He has good character and talent. Concubine Shu and I have a good relationship too."
"By the way, Dad, how is the court's discussion on the snow disaster going?"
Bai Chi didn't want to waste time, so he gave his father a hint directly so that he could proceed with his next plan.
The prime minister's attention was indeed diverted.
Speaking of this, the Prime Minister frowned slightly. "Disaster relief should be a very urgent matter, but the Ministry of Revenue is procrastinating, always saying they don't have the money. They are the general's men, and other than military pay, other funding is always slow."
As he spoke, the Prime Minister looked at the position of the window.
"This year is colder than usual. It's only November and we've already experienced snowstorms. I'm afraid it will get even colder later."
"By the way, Chi'er, I heard that you sent half of the charcoal to the disaster area. Is that enough for you? The palace has a quota for these things. If it's not enough, you can get some from home later."
Bai Chi shook his head to reject his father's kindness, and then discussed the snow disaster with his father in detail.
Until Bai Chi was about to leave, the prime minister was still stunned, and finally he sighed with regret.
"Chi'er, if your brother were half as smart as you, Dad would be relieved."
The younger brother he was talking about was Feng Yao, the son born to his wife and the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. He was quite knowledgeable, but among the many geniuses in the capital, he was only mediocre.
Even shook his head.
"It's a pity that Chi'er is a girl. If you were a boy, my Feng family would have no worries about not being able to prosper forever."
Bai Chi almost rolled his eyes. If he was a son, who knows if he could grow up this big.
"Dad, I'm going back first. Feng Yao is not young anymore, we can say he's married. If there's no rush for marriage, let's have a son first."
He has an urgent need.
