"Oh no! I actually forgot such an important thing." Ye Wanwan patted his head, feeling a little regretful. He was so busy making money that he forgot there was a candidate at home. What was going on?
If Lin Xu'an hadn't mentioned it in passing in his letter, she wouldn't have known when she would have remembered it. She had been working non-stop these days and her mind was a little confused.
"The journey is bound to be tiring, Wanwan will just wait for me in the capital..." After reading the letter to the end, Ye Wanwan pursed her lips and muttered, "Who would go to look for you? I'm still waiting for you in the capital. You're so pretentious, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Having said that, she was still a little touched that Lin Xu'an guessed her thoughts at once. Things in the capital were already on track, and her leaving for a while wouldn't affect anything. She wouldn't stop moving after she left.
But for some reason, she had been in the capital for so long and had caused quite a stir, but no one from the Prince's Mansion had contacted her. She was not familiar with the Prince's Mansion and did not dare to go there rashly.
What Ye Wanwan didn't expect was that she couldn't contact her son, so her father came to her house.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live Your Majesty." Ye Wanwan knelt respectfully on the ground and performed a great salute as the eunuch who had just led the way had taught her.
Rong Guangyi didn't say anything, but only looked carefully at the kneeling Ye Wanwan. After a while, he said, "Boss Ye, raise your head and let me see."
Ye Wanwan raised her head obediently upon hearing this. The sudden summons caught her off guard. She had forgotten to bring the knee pads she had prepared long ago. She didn't know how long she would have to kneel. Her knees were really painful.
In this evil feudal society, where people were often forced to kneel down and beheaded, if you wanted to survive, you probably had to consider Feng Shui...
"From this point of view, she doesn't look like a peasant girl at all." Rong Guangyi said to himself, not seeming to want to be answered. "Compared to those young ladies from aristocratic families, she doesn't look much worse."
Ye Wanwan didn't dare to move, kneeling upright, and only dared to mutter a few words in her heart. Putting aside other things about the dog emperor, the pressure of the superior was still there, at least it looked quite intimidating.
"Your Majesty, just scare the girl. She has already knelt down. Don't scare Boss Ye to death." Prince Yong's words were very disrespectful, and Rong Guangyi just fell for his style. There was no need to be too polite between drinking buddies.
Because she had kept her head down when she came in, not daring to look around, Ye Wanwan only discovered that there was also Prince Yong inside when she got here. Her heart finally died down. It was good to have an acquaintance. If he died, someone would help collect the body...
Ye Wanwan cursed her subconscious cowardly thoughts in her heart, but she still didn't wait for the voice calling her to get up. What good would it do to let the dog emperor kneel down?
"Get up." It was still a long time before Rong Guangyi finally spoke. He first said this to Ye Wanwan, then turned his gaze to Prince Yong and teased, "You are very kind to women."
Prince Yong quickly waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, please don't make such jokes. If the princess hears about this, I will fall to my knees again."
Ye Wanwan stood by, listening to the two of them talking one by one. Her knees ached but she didn't dare to rub them. She just remained silent and tried to keep standing still.
It's impossible that the dog emperor just called her over to take a look at her, or asked her to kneel for a while. Is there some kind of bad taste in this?
"Haha, you're still the same as before." Rong Guangyi said with a smile, "Ye Wanwan, you're not picky about your business, you're into all kinds of things..."
Ye Wanwan didn't shy away from flattering the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, you're joking. It's all thanks to your protection and the emperor's grace that I can succeed in my business."
"No wonder you are so sweet-mouthed, girl. No wonder you can coax the princess into doing business with you." Prince Yong said as he personally brought a chair to Ye Wanwan without asking anyone else to do it for him.
Rong Guangyi knew everything about the capital, but he was just pretending to be confused. He feigned confusion and asked, "Oh, this girl is doing business with Prince Yong's wife?"
"Your Majesty, I am grateful to the princess for her kindness in giving me a chance. It is my honor," Ye Wanwan said with a smile. "And Madam He and the former Madam Zhang are also benefactors in my business."
Rong Guangyi nodded, and no longer paid attention to Ye Wanwan. He turned to talk about other things, as if Ye Wanwan didn't exist.
Ye Wanwan, who was treated as air, lowered her eyes, put her hands on her legs, and sat in the standard posture of an elementary school student. She just listened to the two people discussing national affairs, and did not dare to speak or leave.
Things like the tense situation at the border and the empty treasury were all told to her directly. If he didn't want to kill her, he would probably want her money. But to her, it was all the same.
What's the difference between taking someone's love and taking their life? What she loves most is money.
"Alas, the taxes on the people are becoming heavier and heavier, and I really can't bear to add any more..." Rong Guangyi's sigh echoed in the imperial study, making it impossible to ignore it.
Prince Yong nodded solemnly and said, "Your Majesty is wise. With Your Majesty, Great Rong will prosper! But I have no idea what to do about it."
After talking for a long time, he finally got to the point. Ye Wanwan was a little worried for him. Why was the king of a country so hesitant when asking for something? Did she dare to resist?
She dared to resist only in her heart. She wanted to resist, but she couldn't resist at all.
"Your Majesty, could you give me a chance to serve you? Your Majesty is busy with many affairs every day. I don't want you to be sad about this matter. I am willing to do my best to help Your Majesty solve this urgent problem." Having said this, Ye Wanwan took the initiative to speak, her words sincere.
Rong Guangyi then turned his gaze to Ye Wanwan and exclaimed, "Boss Ye is truly a woman who is as capable as any man. I just wonder if Boss Ye is sincere. Even as the ruler of a country, I wouldn't force anyone to do anything."
"All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people are his subjects." Ye Wanwan immediately understood Rong Guang's translation and immediately bowed and responded, "As a citizen of Darong, under the protection of Your Majesty, it is natural for me to contribute to Darong."
Upon hearing this, Prince Yong, the atmosphere group leader, clapped his hands and laughed, "Well done, Boss Ye! Your conversation and broad-mindedness are truly a role model for everyone."
"Then what reward does Boss Ye want?" Rong Guangyi was always reserved. If you didn't know, you would think that Ye Wanwan was forcing it on him.
