Xu Jing asked, "You're not trying to cheat me, are you?"
"No, don't worry. The natives can't beat you."
That's fine. As long as everything is under control, he can do anything.
"I'm going to work at the company tomorrow."
"OK."
Even after the house was renovated, it still needed ventilation. Even though it was made of environmentally friendly materials, Xu Jing was still worried. He planned to move in after completing the ancient mission.
Buying a house and renovating it has drained all his savings, and it's time to go back and make money.
Southern Liang, Minguang Hall.
The empress, dressed in gorgeous attire, sat on the phoenix throne, chatting cheerfully with the concubines and royal relatives below, when she heard the eunuch's shrill voice in the distance. "The emperor has arrived."
The Queen and the others kowtowed and shouted, "Long live the Emperor."
"Stand up." The emperor took the queen's hand, his eyes full of tenderness. "Zitong, you've worked hard. Today is your anniversary banquet, so there's no need to be so polite."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor waved his hand, and the chief eunuch understood and said, "Everyone, please stand."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Queen of Southern Liang hosted a banquet to celebrate her centenary, inviting many royal relatives and families of court officials.
It was called the Empress's Thousand Years Banquet, but in reality it was also a place of fame and fortune. Those who could attend this gathering seized the opportunity to rise to prominence, hoping to gain the Emperor's or Empress's approval and bring honor to their family.
At this time, Lin Wanru, the second daughter of the Minister of Rites, was a little absent-minded. She looked behind her frequently and looked around in the crowd but didn't see anyone.
Just as Lin Wanru was trying to find an excuse to slip away, her maid Caihe came around and whispered in her ear, "The task that the Second Young Lady instructed me to do has been completed."
"That's good." Lin Wanru raised the corners of her lips, and thought to herself: Lin Qingru, you are dead this time, let's see how you can turn things around.
On the stage, the princes toasted and congratulated the queen. The queen accepted with a smile, but everyone sent their blessings, except for one.
The emperor's face was gloomy. He asked, "Where is the King of Qin?"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Prince Zhuang, who was on good terms with the Prince of Qin, stepped forward and saluted. "In reply to your Majesty, this Thousand Years Banquet was co-hosted by my brother and the Minister of Rites. I just saw my brother busy in the palace, so I think he must have gone to get a gift for our mother."
The Queen felt relieved. "The King of Qin is truly thoughtful." This Qianqiu Banquet was much more satisfying than previous ones, and the Queen's attitude towards the King of Qin improved considerably.
The King of Chu, who had always been at odds with the King of Qin, bowed and said, "But I saw my fifth brother go to the Xinzheku just now. Could it be that I was mistaken?"
If you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb. King Zhuang glared at King Chu and said, "Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. Sixth Prince, don't talk nonsense about things you're not sure about."
"I know you, my ninth brother, are close to my fifth brother and shoulder all the responsibilities for him, but today is different. He was absent from Mother's Thousand Autumn Banquet, and you are still trying to excuse him. No matter what, he is showing disrespect to Mother and the Royal Family. I beg you, Father, to punish the King of Qin severely."
The emperor's face was stern, showing no emotion. After a long pause, he said, "Come here, bring the King of Qin."
At this moment, in the side hall of the cold palace.
Xu Jing felt hot all over, and his desire suddenly reached its peak as if he had taken drugs.
Xu Jing, who had extensive experience in martial arts, felt the pulse and understood.
Well, I got the must-have item for time travelers - an aphrodisiac.
When he got up from the bed, Xu Jing saw a disheveled woman lying beside him.
Although I don’t know what happened in the plot, according to the routines of many years, it must be a drama about adultery.
If someone broke in from outside, they would both be finished.
Seeing the unconscious woman about to wake up, Xu Jing immediately knocked her unconscious. Looking around, he saw no place to hide, so he could only hide under the bed for the time being.
After Xu Jing stuffed the woman under the bed, he tidied himself up and hurried to the Imperial Hospital.
There were still quite a few people in the Imperial Hospital who knew me. When they saw Xu Jing coming, they knelt down and saluted. "Your servant greets His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin."
"No need to be polite." Xu Jing said, "I'm just here to take a look around. You guys go about your business."
"yes."
Xu Jing went straight to the pharmacy and asked the eunuch to prepare an antidote for him. After taking it, Xu Jing said to the eunuch, "I like deaf people, and I like dumb people even more. If you tell anyone that I came here today, I don't mind taking your life. Do you understand?"
The young eunuch was so frightened that he kowtowed immediately. "Yes, yes. I will never tell anyone. I didn't see anything."
"Very good. You may leave first. I will take a rest."
"yes."
After the others left, Xu Jing took over the plot.
The heroine Lin Wanru is a girl who traveled into a book. She was originally the second daughter of the Minister of Rites. She had been engaged to the fifth prince Xie Yunqi since she was a child. She was only waiting to marry into the royal family and become the prince's consort after she reached the age of 15.
Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened when she was about to come of age. Lin Qingru, the eldest sister of the Lin family, envied her younger sister for marrying a prince, so she secretly planned to meet Xie Yunqi, and made Xie Yunqi fall in love with Lin Qingru.
As a result, Lin Qingru's affair was discovered by the Lin family. The Lin family was furious and wanted to kill Lin Qingru in order to cover up the scandal. Fortunately, Xie Yunqi arrived in time to save Lin Qingru and expressed his willingness to take Lin Qingru as a concubine and let the two sisters marry him together.
The Lin family could only swallow their anger and marry the two sisters to Xie Yunqi. After the marriage, Lin Wanru, the legal wife, was useless. Xie Yunqi only favored Lin Qingru and treated Lin Wanru as air.
Lin Qingru didn't want to be a concubine forever, so she framed Lin Wanru for murdering the royal heir. Lin Wanru was poisoned and died.
The girl who traveled through the book read the whole story. She felt sorry for the original owner but never expected that she would travel through time and space and become the original owner.
