Zhao Ji pretended to be kind and went over to pat Eunuch Li on the back.

[This damn thing, I finally got rid of the previous seal, and the third prince had already helped me smooth things over, but this guy took the spoils! ]

[This person has a violent personality. I will make the Third Prince get rid of him. This person must be someone that Your Highness cannot tolerate! ]

Zhao Ji moved his hand away and narrowed his eyes.

I didn’t expect that the third prince was behind this eunuch.

Zhao Ji had already demonstrated his methods, and Eunuch Li actually knew that Zhao Ji could not kill him in public.

Seeing that the morale of the young eunuchs in the hall was low, Eunuch Li did not want to let Zhao Ji take control of the situation so easily.

So he shouted in a hoarse voice: "It was too dark, and I didn't recognize the palm print for a while. It's really our fault..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Ji moved as fast as the wind and slapped Eunuch Li in the face.

For a moment, Eunuch Li was stunned.

"How dare you hit me?"

Eunuch Li has been living a life of luxury for so many years, and even the masters in the palace have rarely beaten or scolded him in recent years.

As a result, before dawn today, he was almost strangled to death by Zhao Ji, and now he has to open his mouth to back down.

He was actually slapped in the face by Zhao Ji, and in front of so many young eunuchs.

This was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Eunuch Li, both psychologically and physically.

When the young eunuchs saw how tough the new seal holder was, they looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing what to do.

Eunuch Li stared at Zhao Ji with a sinister look on his face: "You are very good, I want to see how powerful your palm print can be!"

"I will tell the Third Prince everything that happened today, including your unauthorized assault on a staff member of the Imperial Household Department. I want to see how the Third Prince will deal with you!"

Eunuch Li was so angry that he covered his swollen face and rushed out of the hall.

Some of the young eunuchs hesitated for a moment and followed behind Eunuch Li, crouching with their heads down, fanning and serving water to Eunuch Li.

Some of the young eunuchs also buried their heads and looked at the ground, seemingly maintaining neutrality.

As for those who came to curry favor with Zhao Ji, it can be said that there were none at all.

Only a thin-looking eunuch quietly came up behind Zhao Ji and brought him a cup of tea.

"Master, behind Eunuch Li is the Third Prince. Why don't you go back now... The Third Prince has a stubborn temper, I'm afraid this matter won't end well!"

Zhao Ji turned his head to look at the thin little eunuch, and while taking the tea, he touched the little eunuch's wrist.

[It feels so good to hit with the newcomer's palm print. I have wanted to slap Eunuch Li in the face for a long time, but... the third prince is not easy to mess with! ]

[This palm print did what I have always dreamed of doing, but it may not end well. How about I persuade him to run away quickly...]

Zhao Ji was both amused and confused, and he felt that the little eunuch in front of him was quite dramatic.

So what if he is the third prince?

As long as the emperor does not pass away, these princes will not be able to cause trouble.

As long as the imperial seal is not passed down, the world will still belong to the emperor.

The young eunuch in front of him was a rare person in the Imperial Household Department. Zhao Ji smiled and said, "You can take a rest today. Don't come here if you have nothing to do!"

The young eunuch's face turned pale in an instant. Not knowing the truth, he thought he was being fired!

Zhao Ji ignored the man and turned to the other eunuchs who were looking down and said, "Bring me the files of daily affairs of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Silijian. I am your seal holder now, so why don't you even let me see these?"

Several eunuchs pushed each other, and finally they managed to squeeze out a few people and present the things.

The huge Silijian was busy with all kinds of affairs, and the files were also detailed and complicated.

Ever since Eunuch Li disappeared in the hall, it has been relatively quiet. Taking this opportunity, Zhao Ji sorted out the files.

The more he looked, the more his brows furrowed.

I don't know whether the management and record-keeping personnel of the Imperial Household Department were too incompetent, or whether the eunuch who took the files did something bad on purpose.

These files are really messy, some of them are even missing some parts.

Even though Zhao Ji was not an expert in arithmetic, he could see many mistakes at a glance.

However, the fingerprints on the back of each file belong to Eunuch Li, which also shows that every file in it is confirmed to be confirmed.

By the time Zhao Jiquan finished reading, it was already dawn.

The hall, which had been quiet just a moment ago, was now filled with bustling sounds coming from outside.

Faintly, there were a few high-pitched voices of eunuchs speaking in their throats.

"Your Highness, this is simply lawless!"

As the door was pushed open again, Eunuch Li's familiar hoarse voice once again reached Zhao Ji's ears.

Zhao Ji looked up and saw Eunuch Li bending over and following a man in a purple robe.

The man wore a jade crown on his head, had his hands behind his back, and had a very gloomy expression.

Zhao Ji had met many people in the palace before when he was with the queen. He recognized at a glance that this man was none other than the third prince.

When standing face to face with the third prince, Zhao Ji smiled slightly and greeted him.

"I wonder why the Third Prince came to the Imperial Household Department in such a hurry? Is there any difficult matter that needs the help of the Imperial Household Department?"

The Third Prince looked at Zhao Ji's pretentiousness and recalled Eunuch Li's vivid description of Zhao Ji's domineering appearance.

For a moment, he was filled with anger, his eyes widened wide, as if he was trying to suppress Zhao Ji with his momentum.

However, Zhao Ji looked at him calmly and even with a puzzled look, as if he really wanted to know what difficulties the Third Prince had encountered.

"I heard from Eunuch Li that you injured your colleagues on your first day in office, and you also injured people for no reason. Is a tyrannical person like you worthy of being the seal of the emperor?"

The third prince spoke without stopping, and when he became emotional, he even broke the branch next to him.

"Hurry up and pack your clothes and bedding, and get out of the Imperial Household Department. The Imperial Household Department does not keep useless people!"

The Third Prince became even angrier when he thought about how he had spent so much money in the palace, only to have this eunuch who appeared out of nowhere take advantage of it.

"I think you don't understand the affairs of the Imperial Household Department at all. You don't have to do these things. Let Eunuch Li take full responsibility!"

Zhao Ji listened with his head tilted and did not refute. He just nodded slightly after the third prince finished speaking with saliva flying.

He just summarized: "I think I understand what you mean, Your Highness. You mean that the emperor's appointment is wrong. You can help the emperor choose a seal holder, and that person is Eunuch Li, right?"

"It seems that the only one who can make decisions in the world now is you, the Third Prince!"

After saying this, Zhao Ji saw that the Third Prince's face had turned pale, and Eunuch Li had already knelt on the ground in shock.

"It seems that the world no longer belongs to the emperor. So, is this what you mean, Third Prince?"
