I wonder if General Xu will put himself in the female lead's shoes when he watches this, hahaha, I want to see the love-hate entanglement between the general and the powerful minister...
"We also want to see..." several ministers thought to themselves, unable to suppress the smiles on their lips.
Based on the online novels I've read before, I can practically imagine a whole drama unfolding from this story, and the more I imagine it, the more engrossed I get. [I wonder who's on top, the general or the powerful minister? Both the general and the powerful minister sound so imposing and majestic...]
puff!
Forgive them for not being able to resist, Crown Prince: Suddenly, even farming doesn't taste as good as eating melons...
The ministers hurriedly coughed to cover their embarrassment at having just been unable to hold back their laughter; this...this information was a bit too much for their hearts to handle...
If we're talking about who's in charge, it should be General Xu, right? After all, he fights without batting an eye; he's a true man among men.
However, glancing at the Prime Minister, whose piercing eyes exuded a menacing aura, it seemed... perhaps a powerful minister was quite suitable for the position...
[What's going on here?] Chuanwen looked at the group of people who suddenly seemed to have suffered a great blow, their eyes darting around. [They can't even concentrate on discussing important military and political matters? Thumbs down!]
Crown Prince: It's not that we weren't paying attention, it's just that the melon you cut was too big and smelled too good! Hahahaha
Chuan Wen ignored them and became extremely interested in Xu Yunfei and Zhang Hui. [I'll see if General Xu and Zhang Hui have anything going on in real life...]
Fine, go ahead and watch. But what's with that tone of hoping they'll do something?
The emperor looked at Zhang Hui, who was so angry he was about to vomit blood, and Xu Yunfei, whose head was shrinking lower and lower. "Minister Xu, something's not right!"
Then came the ear-piercing laughter of the demonic messenger [hahahahahahahahahahahaha]
Xu Yunfei's face turned bright red; he couldn't let this girl say it aloud, or he would truly lose all face. "Your Majesty! Regarding the Western Regions, I still..."
Xu Yunfei loudly proclaimed, hoping to attract Chuanwen's attention and interrupt her thoughts, but...
After the book became a huge hit, Grandpa Zhang was extremely popular. Not only were gifts handed to him on the street, but his door was also piled high with all sorts of gifts from fans every day, including hairpins, fans, sachets, and even a bellyband! General Xu also gave him one, hahaha!
What did they give me? It wasn't a bellyband, was it...?
The emperor was shocked, the crown prince was astonished, and several ministers were completely bewildered...
Zhang Hui coughed and coughed, he was so angry he was about to die, but this time it wasn't Chuan Wen who was angry, but Xu Yunfei. The look in Xu Yunfei's eyes could kill.
Xu Yunfei dared not raise his head, keeping it deeply bowed. He hadn't... he was innocent... he hadn't delivered the undergarment...
[Haha, what's the use of just giving him a handkerchief? Look at Grandpa Zhang's cough. Remember to bring him medicine next time, to warm his stomach and touch his heart...]
Hands, handkerchiefs...
The emperor and his entourage breathed a barely perceptible sigh of relief. "Girl, can you please explain yourself clearly first?" They were terrified.
However, Fang Daren secretly glanced at the Crown Prince beside him. What's with that disappointed sigh from you, Crown Prince?
[Hmm? General Xu wasn't the only one delivering things, let me see...]
Who else? Who else? Tell us so we can all have a laugh, hahaha.
The Crown Prince was now completely absorbed in his work, a stark contrast to his absent-minded demeanor when discussing the war in the Western Regions. The Emperor felt a tightness in his chest, but quickly made a decision: he would break the Crown Prince's legs if necessary.
The crown prince, unaware of the impending danger, happily awaited the drama unfolding. The emperor smiled, thinking that the drama would be even more enjoyable when one's chest was relaxed, and then turned his attention back to Chuanwen's heartfelt words.
The wife of the Minister of Personnel gave her a hand-embroidered sachet, the concubine of the Minister of Works gave her a handkerchief imprinted with her kisses... and the wife of Fang Daren gave her her most treasured Buddhist scripture...
Fang Daren, who was sitting there happily, suddenly stopped. His wife! She also received a gift?!
When did this happen?! How come he knows nothing about it?!
However, the next second, Chuanwen burst into even louder laughter; if it were real laughter, the roof of Ganlu Palace would be blown off.
[Someone even gave him a son! Hahahaha, has everyone already known that Grandpa Zhang doesn't have a son? Hahahaha, who's so creative as to give him a son? Hahahahaha]
Zhang Hui's face darkened further, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked. He muttered to himself, "Why do I always find kids at the door, and they're all boys! It's outrageous! This is just rubbing salt in my wounds!"
The emperor pursed his lips, suppressing a laugh. Um, shouldn't we say something? Otherwise, if things stay quiet here for too long, won't the girl become suspicious?
He knew he should consult his trusted advisors when he needed help, so he first looked at the Prime Minister. However, the Prime Minister seemed to be bursting with impatience, so he decided not to bother him.
Then she looked at Xu Yunfei, whose head was practically buried in the bricks. Oh well, never mind.
Looking at Fang Daren again, Fang Daren was still in a daze that my wife had also given the Prime Minister a gift. So his gaze fell on Zhao Dajia next to Fang Daren. Zhao Dajia was in a daze the whole time. What's wrong?
The emperor shifted his gaze again and saw the crown prince, who was engrossed in eating melon with bright eyes, completely unaware of the emperor's gaze, let alone showing any intention of saying anything. The emperor rolled his eyes, wondering how he had raised such a clueless brat.
Huang Wang, however, spoke up with great insight: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's previous method was excellent. So far, there are fifty-six donations reported from the capital alone that exceed 100,000 taels, and eighteen that reach one million taels. The national treasury is now more than half full. If we add the donations from various prefectures, it will be more than enough to deal with the war in the Western Regions."
