Moon-Lan Pavilion.
Jiang Yueyang had just finished taking a shower and her hair was wet.
Seeing this, Xiangling hurriedly took a towel to wipe her hair, muttering to herself as she wiped.
"Girl, you should have let me in to help you bathe. How can you come out like this with your hair so wet? What if you catch a cold?"
"Hey, girl, why is there a red spot on your neck?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang shuddered, and after realizing something, he raised his hands to cover his neck.
"girl?"
"It was a mosquito bite."
Xiangling scratched her head in confusion, "Are there mosquitoes in winter?"
"have."
The system's voice was filled with a teasing smile, "Not only is there a mosquito, but that mosquito is quite big. Host, am I right?"
[Shut up.]
After warning the system, Jiang Yueyang took the towel from Xiangling's hand with a smile, "I can wipe it myself, you go to sleep first."
Xiangling hesitated for a moment and then went out.
Jiang Yueyang walked to the bronze mirror and sat down. The red mark on her neck was obvious, which was left by A Yue.
I don’t know why, but I always feel that Ayue is not confident enough in front of me, and seems a little... humble.
He is the god of war!
On the other side of the night, Lord Zuo Xiang walked out of the study after finishing his official business.
Seeing that it was getting dark, he thought that Jiang Yueyang's letter of complaint would not arrive tonight.
As a result, as soon as he stepped out of the threshold, an arrow flew towards him through the sky.
The left prime minister instinctively widened his eyes and watched the arrow fall to the ground in front of him motionlessly.
After a moment, he gasped for breath.
"Master Xiao Jiang is serious!"
Before this, Kong Jijiu, Lord Wei and Duke Yingguo had suffered the same treatment.
Kong Jijiu was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, and it took him a long time to get up from the ground with difficulty.
In the future, I will make sure that girl knows what it means to take care of the elderly and family members.
Lord Wei was also frightened, and planned to severely report Jiang Yueyang for this matter in the future.
The Duke of England was fine, but he still cursed Jiang Yueyang for being useless every day!
They picked up the arrows, took a quick look at the note on the arrows, and fell asleep with their frightened hearts.
After the morning court session today, Emperor Yuan ordered someone to interrogate Cai Jinghui.
Cai Jinghui confessed to collecting female corpses and digging human graves.
As for why he did not find a chance to escape before the incident, he said that it was because of his identity as the Shaoqing of the Guanglu Temple that he could get ice better.
＊＊＊
The next day, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
As soon as Jiang Yueyang arrived here, she subconsciously looked towards Cai Jinghui's position, but didn't see anyone.
Could it be that Lord Zuo Xiang and his men had taken action last night?
Just as I was thinking about it, Emperor Yuan arrived.
The left prime minister stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, Cai Jinghui has confessed his crimes and is now in prison awaiting your majesty's decision."
Emperor Yuan nodded, but before he could say anything, Kong Jijiu came out again.
"Your Majesty, the person who reported last night was meritorious, but the method he used was too scary. I was almost scared to death."
"Your Majesty, I am almost frightened to death." The Duke of England also came out and echoed.
Emperor Yuan's lips trembled, he wanted to laugh but couldn't.
Finally, someone can deal with these old guys who always go against me.
Lord Wei said: "That man sent a letter to the four of us old guys on the same night, so he must know something about us.
Maybe...she is watching us now!"
Hearing Lord Wei's words, Jiang Yueyang suddenly became nervous, especially when he turned around and glanced at the people behind him.
Does he have to be so perceptive?
Emperor Yuan coughed lightly, "Wei Qing, are you saying that the person who reported it is among you?"
"I have this suspicion."
"In that case..." Emperor Yuan glanced at the crowd, "If it is really any of you, my dear minister, please stand up. I will definitely reward you greatly."
As soon as these words came out, the system deliberately added chaos: [Host, why don’t you just stand up? The emperor has said that he will reward you greatly. ]
Jiang Yueyang rolled her eyes inwardly, [Little kid, do you think I look like a fool?
If I stand up and admit it now, won't those old men from Lord Wei bombard me one after another? 】
Lord Wei and his four companions: Old man?
[Besides...] Jiang Yueyang continued, [Your Majesty's commendation is just for listening, he has no money.
As for my status, I am now the Chief of the Supervisory Department and Princess Yongle, which is high enough. Besides, I don’t care about it. 】
Emperor Yuan was not convinced and thought, "Once taxes and grain from the imperial farms are collected, I will have money!"
Civil and Military Officials: Lord Xiao Jiang, are you satisfied now?
Afterwards, Emperor Yuan said with a smile, "Wei Qing, I promised a reward but no one came out to claim it. It seems that the person is not here."
Lord Wei complained in his heart, it’s because you have no money and the rewards you can give are not attractive enough.
"Your Majesty, meritorious service deserves a reward. I think that person should be found no matter what..."
"That's enough." Emperor Yuan waved his hand to interrupt him. "Since they sent the letter secretly, they probably don't want to reveal their identity. Moreover, judging from the current situation, they are friends, not enemies. Why should we get to the bottom of it?"
Emperor Yuan had said so much, Lord Wei had nothing more to say, so he bowed and took his seat.
The left prime minister said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, the end of the year is approaching, there are many palace banquets, and the Crown Prince's wedding is imminent, so the position of Junior Secretary of the Honglu Temple needs to be replaced as soon as possible."
Emperor Yuan nodded slightly, "Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"
The court fell silent for a moment, and all the civil and military officials lowered their eyes to think.
After a moment, the new Minister of Rites stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I recommend Mr. Lin, the editor of the Hanlin Academy. He is well-read and familiar with etiquette. He will definitely be able to take on this position."
Before Emperor Yuan responded, the Left Prime Minister shook his head, "Your Majesty, I think this is inappropriate. Lord Lin is talented, but he is too rigid. I'm afraid he will not be able to cope with the various changes in the palace banquet."
"Does the left prime minister have a suitable person?"
The left prime minister hesitated for a moment and said, "I recommend Mr. Zhao from the Censorate. He is flexible and good at dealing with people."
"I think it's inappropriate..."
Jiang Yueyang looked around curiously, "Little melon, do you think they will end up fighting like they did yesterday?"
[No, yesterday's street sweeping has made them deeply aware of their mistakes. They can't afford to lose face.]
Hearing about the street sweeping, Jiang Yueyang said with regret: [It’s a pity that I didn’t see them sweeping the streets yesterday. ]
[It's okay, they still need to sweep for two days.] The system laughed flatteringly, [Host, is it time for us to eat melons?]
【What melon to eat? 】
【Wenchangbo's melon! 】
