Chapter 248 (Revised) The Queen Mother and the Regent Who Became a Cat 9
The next morning.
After waking up, Cha Jiu discovered that he had suffered from the aftereffects of the aphrodisiac.
I have a terrible headache and feel very tired.
She even tried jumping onto the table several times.
In the end, it was Zong Yue who carried her up.
The palace maids brought the fragrant beef porridge. She went over and sniffed it twice, but found it unappealing, so she lay there listlessly.
I don't want to eat this tasteless thing.
I want to eat delicious fish and meat, and famous royal dishes.
The system comforted him, "It's almost there. Zong Yue's favorability towards you has already made a qualitative leap, rising from a mere 10% to 35%."
Cha Jiu glanced at Zong Yue and felt that he was really a cat slave.
When her body was still human, Zong Yue would take out a handkerchief to wipe his hands every time he helped her.
Even when a beauty like Zhang approached him to toast, he would kick her away.
Now, I am very tolerant and loving towards a cat.
The system analyzed: "In Zong Yue's opinion, cats are much cleaner and purer than humans. He was almost killed by his father when he was born, lost his mother at a young age, and grew up struggling at the bottom of the palace. He is used to seeing all kinds of ugly things. So compared to humans, a cat may make him feel more relaxed and happy."
Zong Yue finished his breakfast leisurely. Seeing that the porridge in front of Cha Jiu was motionless, a mischievous smile flashed in his eyes.
"Will you dare to eat random things in the future?"
Cha Jiu looked sick and ignored him.
Zong Yue held her in his arms and soothed her: "We can go back to the palace today. Just eat this porridge first, and you can have a delicious dinner."
"Meow Meow" Returns to the Palace
"The palace is very beautiful, you will definitely like it." Zong Yue pinched her soft flesh pad, "But there are a few things you have to agree to."
"Meow" gives me favorability, and I will agree to all ten of your requests.
“Don’t eat anything given to you by others.”
"Meow~"
"Don't sneak away from where I can't see you."
Cha Jiu: Oh, set some rules for the kittens.
Finally, Zong Yue said in a meaningful tone: "Also, you are not allowed to leave my side."
Cha Jiu stretched out the claw that was held in his hand and placed it on the back of his hand.
--make a deal.
Zong Yue raised the corners of his lips and lowered his head to kiss Cha Jiu's fluffy head.
…
Zhang is dead.
Last night, after being fed drugged wine, Zhang lost all her rationality and became as strong as an ox. She only wanted to knock down men and have sex with them.
Knowing that she had syphilis, Lin Mincong naturally had no time to avoid her, and in the process of pushing her, he accidentally killed her.
Lin Mincong was taken to the Dali Temple, but no matter who he told, no one believed him and Zhang was framed by the Regent Prince, and no one dared to investigate.
When the young emperor learned the news, he immediately sent someone to Yan Gui Tower to invite Zong Yue over.
Zong Yue was coaxing Cha Jiu to drink his porridge. When he heard someone coming from the emperor's place, he simply said, "Let him wait. Drink more."
The latter sentence was addressed to Cha Jiu.
Cha Jiu swallowed the last mouthful of porridge. His stomach was full and he collapsed flat on the table.
Ah, I'm really almost dying.
The palace maid who was serving him went out and relayed the original words, which made the little emperor so angry that he smashed porcelain all over the floor in Hanzhang Tower again.
But when Zong Yue stepped into Hanzhang Tower, everything returned to normal. The porcelain fragments on the ground had been swept away, and the little emperor's face was very calm.
"Uncle Wang is here."
Zong Yue's face was cold, and he saluted him according to the rules: "Greetings, Your Majesty."
The little emperor gave him a helping hand and said, "Uncle Wang, there's no need to be so polite."
As Zong Yue expected, the young emperor asked him to come here to plead for Lin Mincong.
"I have already investigated the matter of Minister Lin. It was Zhang who was shameless and wanted to get close to Uncle Wang, so she pestered Minister Lin to make plans for her, which made you unhappy for no reason."
"All the sins are due to Zhang's greed. Let's release Minister Lin from the Dali Temple today."
Although the little emperor's tone was gentle, it was commanding.
Zong Yue said: "I'm sorry, I can't obey your order."
The little emperor's face changed: "I am the emperor, don't I even have the power to release one person?"
Zong Yue raised his eyes and smiled at him: "Your Majesty, have you not memorized the first volume of the State Policy?"
"What does releasing the person have to do with endorsement?" The little emperor was very unhappy.
Zong Yue said slowly, "The first volume of the State Policy states that the use of royal power should be measured and based on evidence, so as to win the hearts of the people and ensure the long-term stability of the country. Since Minister Lin has killed someone, he should be convicted according to the laws of the Dali Temple, rather than judging his crime based on your personal preferences or the closeness of the relationship. Only in this way can the people recognize that you are a wise monarch."
"you……"
Zong Yue added: "If Your Majesty does not approve of me, then you can bring this matter to the court to hear the opinions of the ministers."
The little emperor clenched his fists and sneered in his heart.
The court today is not his court, but Zong Yue's court!
As long as Zong Yue opened his mouth, it was guaranteed that more than half of the ministers would kneel down and agree that the Dali Temple would sentence Lin Mincong to death.
Lin Mincong could not be saved. The little emperor took a deep breath and discussed another matter.
"I want to confer an imperial decree on Aunt Lin..."
Zong Yue pressed his brow with his hand, and his eyes flashed with impatience: "Your Majesty, it seems that you did not take what I just said to you to heart."
"It's just an imperial decree."
Zong Yue: "Even if I agree, the Queen Mother will not agree."
If the empress dowager knew about this behavior that disregarded the court's rules and regulations, she would definitely be the first person to criticize the emperor.
The little emperor waved his hands and spoke faster than his brain: "The Queen Mother agrees."
His straightforward attitude made Zong Yue suspicious, so he asked tentatively: "Has the Queen Mother's illness improved?"
The little emperor said perfunctorily, "It's better now, but I still can't see anyone. I may have to stay in Taiqing Tower for a while to recuperate."
Zong Yue seemed to be thinking about something.
When he returned to Yan Gui Tower and picked up the limp Cha Jiu, Zong Yue's stern brows finally relaxed.
"Yun'an, stay here and go to Taiqing Tower to check on the Queen Mother's condition."
Cha Jiu raised her head in his arms and looked at his slightly serious expression.
The system clicked its tongue: "He finally realized something was wrong."
Feeling that he was being looked at by the little cat, Zong Yue lowered his head and kissed her on the head again: "As for us, we will be going home soon."
…

Half of it was changed
