"Prince Yi is absolutely right. I also think that Guard Ming Ruzhen is suitable for the position of Imperial Master." The Prime Minister immediately bowed in agreement.
As soon as he spoke, the other ministers could only nod.
Ming Ruzhen looked at these people and said with surprise, "Your Majesty, I will do my best!"
Xie Shizhu secretly glanced at Xie Ji, and their eyes met, and her heart suddenly beat faster.
He quickly averted his gaze and said calmly, "National Master, get up."
Ming Ruzhen's eyes turned red and she stood up from the ground.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Shizhu said that he and Ming Ruzhen would go out of the palace for a few days to personally check on the progress of the water diversion.
In fact, Xie Shizhu wanted to go out and play.
Now that the major issues have been almost resolved, if she continues to stay in this palace, she will get sick sooner or later.
So you have to combine work and rest.
When the ministers heard this, they immediately praised Xie Shizhu: "Your Majesty is truly worried about the country. With you here, Yue Kingdom will be able to overcome the difficulties soon."
Xie Shizhu smiled slightly and said hypocritically: "This is my responsibility."
Her humble words once again aroused praise from her ministers.
Soon, he withdrew from the court.
Late at night, Xie Shizhu couldn't wait to pack everything and prepare to get into the sedan with Ming Ruzhen.
Xie Shizhu went out of the palace, on the one hand to relax and have fun, but on the other hand it was related to Xie Ji.
She wanted to escape from Xie Ji because her brother had behaved so well in the past few days that she had forgotten for a moment that Xie Ji was her brother.
Moreover, for some unknown reason, whenever Xie Ji looked at her, she couldn't breathe.
I also thought of the original plot where Xie Ji went crazy and everyone was killed.
This forced her to escape from Xie Ji's sight for a while and calm down.
When Xie Shizhu lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and saw the man sitting inside, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Damn, how can she calm down?
Xie Shizhu's back stiffened because she had deliberately chosen to leave in the middle of the night so that Xie Ji wouldn't know.
She never expected that Xie Ji was already sitting inside waiting for her.
It's like waiting for a rabbit to appear.
Ming Ruzhen looked at Xie Shizhu who was taking so long to get into the sedan chair and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, did you forget to bring something?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man sitting in the sedan chair curled his thin lips and stared at the shocked woman with his deep eyes.
The next second, he said, "Did your Royal Sister forget to bring me along?"
The man's voice reached Ming Ruzhen's ears from the sedan chair. She was stunned for a moment, then quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to Prince Yi."
Xie Shizhu quickly adjusted his expression, and a stiff smile appeared on his lips. "Originally, my sister was planning to call you over, but then she thought you might be asleep, so she didn't want to disturb you."
A hint of interest flashed across Xie Ji's eyes, but he didn't expose her lie. Instead, he stretched out his long arm and gently grasped the woman's wrist.
"Royal sister, it's time to set off."
Xie Shizhu: "..." I want to die.
The system quickly shook its head: [A good death is worse than a miserable life.]
Xie Shizhu gritted his teeth and was pulled into the sedan chair by Xie Ji.
Ming Ruzhen stood beside the sedan chair and took the initiative to ride on the horse. Then the sedan chair set off steadily towards the destination.

Xie Shizhu finally felt what it felt like to be sitting on pins and needles.
At this moment, she felt uncomfortable at all.
Xie Ji, on the other hand, was quite relaxed and even asked her how many days she planned to stay outside the palace.
Xie Shizhu said sadly, "About three or four days."
Originally, she planned to go on vacation for ten days or half a month on the pretext of supervising the water diversion project.
Now that Xie Ji appeared, she suddenly felt that it would be better to end it early and return to the palace early.
Xie Ji nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Suddenly, Xie Ji became quiet and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Xie Shizhu heard the man's steady breathing and quickly looked over.
The man closed his eyes, his thick eyelashes casting a shadow on his skin. His facial features were perfect and handsome, but the only flaw was a scar on his cheek.
However, it has faded a lot and should disappear soon.
The slightly cold thin lips are lightly pursed, and the jawline is smooth and beautiful.
A few strands of black hair were at the temples, floating in the wind from the sedan window, and the hair also swept towards Xie Shizhu's profile.
Very itchy.
Xie Shizhu's heart was a little confused because of the hair.
I don’t know if it’s a sequelae from the previous world, but why does her heart beat unsteadily when she sees Xie Ji’s face?
The system said: [Normal, I drool just looking at this face.]
Xie Shizhu withdrew his gaze and quickly turned his face away, not looking at Xie Ji.
After a while, she felt sleepy, leaned her head against the inside of the sedan chair, and fell into a drowsy sleep.
After she fell asleep, the man beside her slowly opened his eyelids and turned his head to look at her.
Xie Ji found that the woman's head was pressed against the cold and stiff corner of the sedan.
He felt a little distressed, and carefully moved her head with his palm, then gently moved closer to Xie Shizhu.
Give her your shoulder as a pillow.
For nearly three or four hours, Xie Ji did not change his posture. Even though his shoulders were sore, he endured it.
Because being close to the imperial sister is more important than pain.

Zhong Changyao lost a lot of weight during the period of house arrest.
He was stunned when he heard that Xie Shizhu had turned the tea leaves in Nanyuan City into food.
Then, he suddenly smiled and said to himself, "You are indeed the chess piece I trained."
As he laughed, his face darkened again.
This startled Zhuo Ping who was beside him.
Apart from Xie Ji and Ming Ruzhen, Zhuo Ping is the person who has been with Zhong Changyao the longest.
