Chapter 84 Confrontation in Court
[Alas, I feel uncomfortable after lying down for too long. 】
The emperor, who was overwhelmed by memorials, heard the inner voice and was ready to reach out and dig at the little fellow.
He reached out his hand, but it didn't feel right.
What I touched was soft silk.
What about the children?
He turned around in a panic and saw Bei Jingchu squirming and grunting as he turned over like a little turtle with its shell turned upside down.
It's already half successful, the whole milk ball has been squeezed to the edge of the cradle.
Fortunately, the cradle made by Shang Gongju has a stable center of gravity, so her weight will not tip it over.
Oh, not bad!
They will all turn over.
The emperor put down his pen for a moment and watched the little guy working there with great interest.
Snap!
The little ball that was lying down turned into a little ball that was lying prone.
The little butt looks very soft.
Well...it’s better not to beat the child even if there is nothing wrong.
There was a round of applause. "Chuchu is really amazing. He has learned how to turn over."
When Bei Jingchu heard the emperor's praise, she raised her little neck proudly.
She is the best baby!
Afterwards, the emperor called Xu Lanqi to discuss the matter.
"Your Majesty, regarding the increasing popularity of Buddhism and Taoism among the people..."
"What? How do you know that my eldest princess will turn things around?"
Xu Lanqi: ...
It's okay, I understand. He was like this when his son was just born, and he's still just as annoying now that he's grown up.
Bei Jingchu is no longer toothless now. Two sharp teeth have emerged from between her gums.
When teeth are growing, the teeth are very itchy, and Bei Jingchu always bites her own saliva to grind her teeth.
Actually, she wanted to suck her fingers, but she felt a little embarrassed, so she decided to just bite her saliva pocket.
Her father seemed to want to take a rest and stretched himself.
"Jiang Zhixian."
"I'm here." Eunuch Jiang replied.
"Get something to eat."
It seems that Aye is hungry.
Bei Jingchu bit her lipstick, wondering when she could have delicious food.
Eunuch Jiang came up with four or five young eunuchs, each carrying a food box.
"Your Majesty, this was sent by Qi Zhaorong"
"This is the ginseng and black chicken soup sent by Concubine Zhang."
"This is the Jade Dew Ball sent by Miss Wu."
"This is the peony bird's nest sent by Cui Cairen."
"This is..."
"The minions have already tried the poison."
Bei Jingchu had never seen her father's other concubines, and it was only at this time that she realized that her father had a harem.
Slurp~
She started drooling just by hearing the names of the dishes.
[Sounds delicious~]
[When can I eat——]
The emperor paused for a moment while picking up food with chopsticks. He turned his head and saw a kid staring at the food in his hand.
It's so delicious.
He put the chopsticks close to the boy's mouth, and the fragrant hot steam went straight into Bei Jingchu's nostrils.
Ah~it smells so good.
Bei Jingchu couldn't help but opened her mouth wide to bite.
The chopsticks were suddenly retracted.
"Alas~ I can't eat~"
Bei Jingchu: …
The emperor even shook his chopsticks, staring at Bei Jingchu with his eyes, and put the shredded radish into his mouth based on his feeling.
After chewing it twice, he sighed: "It's delicious."
Bei Jingchu: …
【Dog——tyrant——king! ——】
【Tyrant tyrant tyrant! 】
The emperor felt relieved after being scolded by the little guy.
Well, that’s really interesting, hahaha.
A young eunuch came in to report: "Your Majesty, the Supervisor Qin Yun, the Imperial College Supervisor Luo Ping, and the Right Secretary Miao Ruzheng..."
The young eunuch called out a string of names in one breath, as if he always said them.
Finally, he said two words: "Seeking an audience."
He finished his sentence without even taking a breath.
He is really a good talent for crosstalk.
However, Bei Jingchu was very confused: [Why are these people gathering together like they are in a place? ]
The emperor also had this problem.
He had these ministers brought in.
A group of people of all ages, young and old, knelt down as soon as they came in, crying: "Your Majesty——"
"You have to make the decision for me..."
Bei Jing was excited when she first saw him. Wuhuhu~ there is some gossip to read again hehehe.
Even the anger that was teased by the dog Aye just now has dissipated a lot.
Facing his subjects, the emperor's previously domineering temperament instantly subsided, and his expressionless face looked very dignified.
"Stop crying, don't waste my time, let's talk."
The style is as clean and neat as ever.
Bei Jingchu was speechless and complained: [When talking to confidants like the Minister of the Central Secretariat and the Minister of the Chancellery, he always calls them "Ai Qing". ]
[I don’t know how to lift you up~]
[I can understand your thoughtfulness~]
[You scare people into being stunned and deceive their loyalty, hahahaha. ]
[This rhetoric is really amazing, he is totally a pyramid scheme leader. ]
[If a minister you like cries in front of you, you might even give him a cup of tea, pat his head, and comfort him like a caring brother~]
emperor:……
Isn't this normal?
Of course, good ministers and ordinary ministers should be treated differently.
Although he didn't know what MLM was, he knew it was definitely not a good thing.
Curse as much as you want, he's already used to it.
The Censor Qin Yun was an old man, but his ability was not obvious and he was not favored by the emperor. He worked his way up from the ninth rank to the eighth rank Censor.
"Your Majesty, Princess Xianning brought people to break into Wenqin Academy today and beat my grandson severely."
"My grandson is just a young child. I don't know why he had to suffer such a cruel and brutal attack from the eldest princess!"
Luo Ping, the Minister of the Imperial Academy, added: "Your Majesty, my eldest son was also injured. All of us were injured by Princess Xianning."
"It is said that it was because the children had a conflict with the eldest princess's son when they were at Wenqin Academy."
"How absurd this is, Your Majesty! Just because of a conflict between a few boys, the princess personally attacked the children."
"It is, it is..."
"She even brought her followers to rob the property of the ministers."
"This is simply robbery!"
"The princess's troops were originally meant to protect her, but she used them to plunder her subjects' wealth."
"How can other officials feel at ease?"
"I hope Your Majesty can make the decision for us, and let Her Royal Highness the Princess give us an explanation!"
Xian Ning is indeed a hot-tempered person, but he is not the one who cannot tell right from wrong.
This was the emperor's previous idea.
But ever since he found out that Bei Jinruo was abusing her own eldest son, he felt that his sisters were doing something beyond his comprehension.
It's not impossible.
He sent someone to summon Princess Xianning.
Before the eunuch left, another eunuch came in and announced, "Your Majesty, Princess Xianning wants to see you."
Princess Xianning came in and was much more calm than those crying ministers.
After he finished his greetings gracefully, he turned to the courtiers behind him and said, "I knew that you old fools would complain to the evil people first."
Bei Jingchu held out Erkang's hand: [My dear aunt! The way you speak doesn't match your face. ]
