Chapter 113 Wow——
The candles in the Qianyang Palace had not been lit for quite some time, and a crackling sound could be heard faintly in the hall. An eunuch trotted over with extremely light steps, carefully picked up the candle clip, and cut off the hanging wick.
The lights in the house suddenly became much brighter.
Jiang Yanchuan slowly walked past Jiang Xingran who was pushed in front of him, raised his hand and flicked Jiang Yingcheng's forehead, and said something nonsense: "Your Master Miao came to me and cried for half an hour today."
Although the guys went out today with his permission, from their perspective, they did it secretly without his knowledge, and he had to teach them a lesson.
Jiang Yingcheng raised his hand to cover his forehead, his eyes full of guilt as he looked at Jiang Xingran.
[Seventh brother also sneaked out with Chengcheng, father, shoot Seventh brother first! ]
She had a good idea. After the beautiful father was tired of teaching Seventh Brother a lesson, he would not have the energy to say anything to her anymore!
Several people in the room were so angry that they laughed.
Jiang Yingcheng's gaze unconsciously turned to Lin Jinshu, and his eyes lit up.
"Chengcheng brought a gift back for father!"
She grabbed Lin Jinshu's arm and pushed him forward like a treasure: "Chengcheng has brought back a super~good brother for father!"
The younger brother can not only accompany the beautiful father to relieve his boredom, but also be by the side of the beautiful father, allowing the father to experience the joy of family life. This is simply -
【The beautiful father becomes a father without any pain! 】
【Cheng Cheng is simply too smart! 】
She was worried before about how to hide her brother, a stranger, into the palace, but now she doesn’t have to worry anymore!
She could put her younger brother directly into her father's Xianyang Palace!
Lin Jinshu shuddered violently.
He did desire to live with his biological parents, but that was only after he had not accepted his biological mother and Jiang Yingcheng.
Moreover, Emperor Mingze was suspicious and observant by nature. Lin Jinshu simply couldn't bear to think about what would happen to the two of them if he accidentally revealed something wrong.
With a slightly guilty look in his eyes, he glanced at the tall young emperor standing opposite him.
Jiang Yanchuan also looked straight at Lin Jinshu who was lowering his head, with inexplicable emotions surging in his dark eyes.
He knew what happened after the young lady went out today, and he also knew the reason why she brought people to the palace, but he did not expect that the young lady would actually set her sights on him.
"Changshun," Jiang Yanchuan suddenly said loudly, "bring my cane here."
The Guanyang Palace had never prepared anything like a cane. Eunuch Changshun knew that this was Emperor Mingze's threat, so he suppressed his laughter and said, "Yes."
Jiang Yingcheng suddenly jumped up from the ground: "No, no, Chengcheng can take care of his brother by himself!"
She grabbed Jiang Xingran and Lin Jinshu's hands and ran!
"Chengcheng, please come and see father tomorrow!"
"Stop," Jiang Yanchuan's cold voice sounded faintly before the few people ran out of the main hall, "Lin Jinshu stays."
Although he couldn't keep the person in the Lingyang Palace, he couldn't just watch Jiang Yingcheng being reported by those idle court officials.
There was a rustling sound behind the screen at the corner for a while, and then Lin Jinshu, who looked at a loss, was pushed out by the other two.
Jiang Yingcheng's thief-like voice rang out immediately afterwards: "Father, please don't be cruel to my brother~"
[He was bullied by the group of people from the Lin residence today, and Cheng Cheng had a hard time coaxing him back to health! ]
Jiang Yanchuan: “…”
After a moment, a round little head popped out from behind the screen again: "Father, you can't be mean to Uncle Jiao~"
Jiang Yanchuan was once again successfully made laugh by the little guy, and he pretended to lift his legs towards the screen.
The little head retracted with a "whoosh", and the sound of chaotic footsteps followed.
Jiang Yingcheng dragged Jiang Xingran out.
…
Jiao Hongmiao was reported by someone.
Before the carriage in which he secretly took the two little princes out of the palace yesterday had gone a few miles, the news had already reached the residences of various officials who were keeping a close eye on the imperial city.
Not to mention, they caused such a commotion in the Lin Mansion.
The morning court session had just been halfway through, and after all the important state affairs had been dealt with, some people could not wait to step out of the line.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
Under the golden platform, a middle-aged court official stood in the center, and his uprightness was fully demonstrated in his every move.
This passionate voice also successfully woke Jiang Yingcheng from his half-sleep.
The man said confidently, "The Minister of Revenue Jiao Hongmiao took the Eleventh Princess and the Seventh Prince out of the palace yesterday and went to the home of a wealthy businessman in the capital. He took the youngest son of the family to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion before leaving."
"I think there are several things wrong with this matter."
"First, as the Minister of Revenue, Lord Jiao should keep a distance from the princes and princesses and should not have too close contact with them."
"Secondly, I heard that the Minister of Finance knocked on the door and entered without sending a visiting card in advance, which seems to be an attempt to abuse his power to oppress the people."
"Third——" The voice of the report stopped here.
The court officials who had experienced the fraudulent incident yesterday turned their heads and glanced at the man, with an expression of waiting for a good show on their faces.
Even the Minister of Finance who was reported did not show any panic on his face.
"???"
The expression on the face of the person who reported the incident gradually changed from confusion to solemnity.
Is there something inside that he doesn't know?
Jiang Yingcheng was made drowsy again by the man's tone, which sounded like he was reciting the entire text.
However——
【Brother Tong, Brother Tong, who is that person? 】
She thought very principledly: [Uncle Jiao was implicated because of Cheng Cheng, Cheng Cheng cannot let Uncle Jiao suffer such an injustice! ]
Under the golden platform, several court officials couldn't help but smile kindly at the same time.
The little princess is so sensible, it's worth it that they like her.
and……
The little prince's reaction means that they will have melons to eat soon!
[Well... Brother Tong, you can't do that. Even if this person is sarcastic, has no political achievements, and has no manners...] Jiang Yingcheng looked up at the man with a hint of disdain, [You can't not even know who he is!]
Ministers: That’s right!
The fact that "Brother Tong" doesn't know who this person is means that their journey of eating melons has encountered an obstacle?
This won’t work!
A minister suddenly spoke up: "Ao Jiarong, the Right Assistant Secretary of the Fourth Rank Supervisory Council, you don't know the reason, how can you easily impeach a minister who is so loyal to my court?"
Ao Jiarong: “???”
Is it popular in the court to address colleagues in such a comprehensive way now?
The minister completed his mission, and regardless of the shocked looks from his side, he calmly returned to the team, keeping his achievements and fame to himself.
All his attention was focused on the small figure above the golden platform.
Come on, little princess!
Please, don’t take care of their happiness today!
「Wow──」
The ministers were breathing rapidly.
Here it comes!
