Chapter 585: The Confession of Sins, Fragments of the Divine Weapon Diagram
Wei Li and Su Wen were so busy that they were running around.
Gan Zhenyu and his group of loyal old ministers worked around the clock and were so tired that their faces and lips turned pale.
Nam Sang surrendered to Dai Viet and could have existed as a vassal state of Dai Viet.
As a result, after Yan Changkong's death, the royal bloodline of Nansang was completely cut off. Dai Viet had to re-draft the takeover plan to restore order in Nansang as soon as possible, stabilize the lives of the people, and suppress the dissatisfied civil and military officials in Nansang to avoid further chaos.
"What kind of pessimism did I have in the first place that made me want to take the imperial examination and become an official!" In the imperial study, Su Wen stared at the seemingly endless official duties in front of him, regretting for the hundredth time that he had been so young and impulsive when he entered the court to become an official.
I’m exhausted like a dog every day!
He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had slept in!
"Be patient. You submit your resignation letters to me every few days. I still take time out of my busy schedule to write down the word 'disapproved' for you. Do I have a single complaint? Just keep working." A man's calm voice came from behind the pile of letters on the desk, neither hurried nor slow.
Su Wenben was already annoyed, and when he heard his calm tone, his anger immediately soared.
He angrily opened the memorial that was thrown to him, and as expected, the word "not allowed" was extremely prominent on it.
It was not approved with a brush.
Wei Li, this bastard, has learned to be lazy. He asked someone to carve a seal for him. When he saw his memorial, he just stamped it with the seal, and the word "Not Approved" was printed on it in a neat and conspicuous way!
He's on a pirate ship!
The half-closed door of the imperial study was pushed open from the outside.
Lord Gan, who had been promoted to the rank of Grand Secretary of the Hanlin Academy, walked in with a shaky step. There were two large dark circles under his eyes, and the bags under his eyes were almost falling to his chin.
"This is a turbulent time. Trouble is brewing in the various kingdoms." Gan Zhenyu frowned and placed an imperial edict and several letters in front of Wei Li. "Emperor Dongpu issued a self-repentance edict, reflecting on his mistakes, revealing his persecution of the Huo family, and abdicating. These letters, one for each of the nine kingdoms, have already been read. Your Majesty, please review them."
Su Wen was too surprised to be angry. He rushed over from the other side and craned his neck to look at the imperial edict. "An edict of apology? How dare the Emperor of Dongpu expose his shortcomings to the world?"
After he finished reading the edict of apology, Wei Li also finished reading the letters from the nine nations. He raised the item in his hand and smiled faintly, "Not only the edict of apology, but also this, nine fragments of the divine weapon map."
The map of the magic weapon was one to eleven.
Two of them have been obtained from the land of exile, plus the nine given by various countries, which means that the map of the magic weapon can be pieced together.
Su Wen and Wei Li looked at each other. "What's going on among these nations? Seeing the peace and might of the Great Yue, are they surrendering and making peace?"
"Surrendering and making friends is one of the reasons, and perhaps, there is also a bit of guilt? It is true that they persecuted your clan, but when the countries were in danger, it was you who put aside past grudges for the sake of justice and put the world first." Wei Li smiled.
Although each country had its own calculations in private, from their own standpoints, none of the monarchs was a tyrant.
Therefore, it is difficult to simply comment on whether what they did in the past was right or wrong.
Gan Zhenyu's tired face showed a faint smile, which was very comforting. "No matter what, this is a good thing for Great Viet. After this incident, the world can be said to have truly settled down. There will be no more disputes and chaos for at least a few decades. Isn't this what the people of the world hope for the most?"
"Master Gan is right." Wei Li nodded in agreement, gathered the fragments together and handed them to Su Wen. "When you leave the palace, go to Wangque Tower and take these things back to Tianbao."
Su Wen took it neatly and said seriously, "I can send it back myself, it's no trouble."
Wei Li and Gan Zhenyu both stared at him and replied with two "hehe".
When everyone is in dire straits, do you want to get ashore?
What a nice thought.
Before leaving, Lord Gan glanced at Su Wen with a serious face, "There is one more thing I need to trouble you with, Lord Su. When you return home from the palace later, if you see our daughter Caiwei, please ask her to go home early and not stay out too long. No matter how good the security in Changjing is, it is difficult to prevent scoundrels from appearing. As a father, I am always worried. It is not proper for a girl to linger outside like this all the time. Is there a seductive vixen out there?"
Su Wen, “…”
Lord Gan turned away, "Humph."
Su Wen, “…”
After reading the mountain of memorials, Wei Li lay on the table and laughed silently.
Only this little bit of fun can relieve boredom and fatigue in a busy life.
Footsteps were heard at the door again, and at the same time, a woman's soft and clear voice came, "Your Majesty, Lord Su, it's past noon. I guess you must have forgotten lunch again. I specially brought you some food. Sorry to bother you?"
This time it was Su Wen's turn to smile. "No need to bother you. I forgot to remind His Majesty to eat. Your Majesty, you've arrived just in time. With you watching over him, His Majesty won't have to neglect his health and sleep. I happen to have something else to do, so I'll take my leave now."
The man slipped away after finishing his words.
Because the queen was present, Wei Li really had no way of bringing the person back to continue working. He had to eat.
Gan Cairou looked at the desk piled high with memorials, lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and brought the food box to the small table beside her. She placed the dishes on it one by one, "Your Majesty is busy, but his health is still the most important. There are important matters at court every day, and official duties are never-ending. It is best to balance work and rest."
Wei Li walked out from behind the desk and sat down at the small table. He watched the woman set the dishes by herself. When she was done and about to leave, he pulled her over to sit across from him. "Let's eat together. If I'm too busy to remember the time, you can come and eat with me."
Gan Cairou was slightly surprised, "Is this okay?"
"Why not?" Wei Li raised his eyes and smiled. "I heard from Mammy that you always deliver meals to me every day and then go back to eat your own meals. You only focus on me and forget about yourself?"
Gan Cairou was stunned again, lowered her eyes, hummed softly, and picked up her chopsticks to eat.
During this time, she took a sneak peek at the man while he wasn't paying attention.
A light warmth flows through my heart.
The two of them ate in silence, rarely speaking, but the woman's unconscious smile lingered for a long time.
The palace is deep and deep, and the women living there regard their king as their heaven, and once they stay there, it lasts a lifetime.
Her wish remains unchanged, she just hopes to be able to treat you with respect.
But it seemed that such days were not as difficult as she thought.
On the other side, Su Wen found an excuse to slip out of the palace, and he finally regained his breath, half alive.
After processing the map of the magic weapon, he came out from the dark corner of Wangque Tower. He originally planned to have a meal at a nearby restaurant. When he was about to step into the restaurant, he stopped, hesitated for a moment, turned around and went back to Su Mansion.
Sure enough, I saw Miss Gan's carriage at the corner of the mansion gate. I had seen it so many times that it looked very familiar.
The carriage was about to start and turn around to leave.
He must have waited for a long time without seeing anyone and was ready to go back.
Su Wen walked over and knocked on the car window with his fingers, "Ms. Gan."
The carriage stopped and there was silence inside the windows.
After a while, the curtain of the carriage was finally opened from the inside, revealing the pretty red face of a woman. "Master Su, what a coincidence, you're back?"
Su Wen's mouth twitched, he was both angry and amused.
Isn’t it a coincidence?
At his doorstep again.
