Chapter 168 Watching the Show



He didn't fall asleep on purpose!

what to do? !

What should he explain?

"Fengtai, what are your reasons for choosing these people? Tell us about them."

As if deliberately ignoring Zhen Po's earlier loss of composure, Mu Chen's current attitude can be described as gentle, even showing approval in his eyes.

Even the naive and innocent Lu Xiaoyao could tell that Zhen Po seemed to have left a pretty good impression on the emperor!

[Wow? This Prince An, isn't the probability a bit high? The emperor didn't even yell at him while he was asleep!]

Is it true or false?

[Perhaps they're just saving face for me and will scold me later? After all, there are so many people in the meeting; if they only scold one person, what about the rest?]

Oh, that's true.

That's not necessarily true; at least Prince An won first place today!

...

"Your Majesty, I believe..."

Zhen Po felt relieved that Mu Chen had suddenly let her go, and quickly stepped forward to start talking about the list that she had spent the whole night researching.

Actually, this is something he couldn't do.

The first local official to be imprisoned in the area affected by the flood was from his father-in-law's side. Even his father-in-law, Lord Nan'an, has been claiming illness and avoiding people lately, so he needs to be even more careful to avoid suspicion.

Moreover, he discovered that none of the people under his command were suitable for this incident, so instead of recommending his own subordinates, he recommended some honest officials with no background or connections.

After Zhen Po finished speaking, he really didn't expect that the emperor would actually agree with his suggestion.

"It's quite a coincidence that the candidates you and Prince Ying nominated overlap. It seems you two brothers are on the same wavelength." After Mu Chen finished speaking, his ambiguous smile and pointed expression immediately alerted Yuan Fang, who was standing at the front.

If he weren't in court right now, standing at the very front, he would definitely turn around to see Julian's expression.

Yesterday he was still thinking about the threat that Prince Ying posed to him, but today, with just one sentence from an "NPC," Yuan Fang immediately brought Zhen Po and Julian to the forefront.

He even wondered if the two of them had secretly joined forces.

Julian suddenly felt more attention on him, and he, who had originally intended to remain invisible, now felt uneasy.

Who knew that most of the people Zhen Po chose would actually be his own people?!

The crucial point is that the emperor pointed it out!

There was no point in him continuing to "play dead" at this point, so he simply went along with Emperor Jing'an's words and praised Zhen Po for being more thoughtful, saying that he, as the younger brother, still had much to learn.

Even if two people stepped forward, Julian didn't want to be the one to draw the main fire.

In an instant, Julian's mind was already filled with all sorts of plans and schemes.

In the time it took to eat breakfast, Mingmei watched as Mu Chen directly tricked two players, while she, so far, hadn't sold a single boxed meal _(:3」∠)_
