I want to be lazy again today
I want to be lazy every day

Jin Suting also felt that it was because of her, Helan Ruizhe, that she failed to go to the Northwest, and that they lost the battle.
Now we are in such a disadvantageous situation.
If it was Helan Ruizhe instead of Liu Mo who went to the northwest first, at least in terms of intelligence, they could compete with that regent.
Helan Ruizhe knew what the silly girl was thinking and looked her in the eye to comfort her: "Don't think too much, this matter has nothing to do with you. Even if I went to the northwest, what would be the point? When Liu Mo led his troops there, the Simu Kingdom had already broken through our city."
He wanted to tell Jin Suting that no matter who led the troops, it could not change the fact that their city had been captured. Wait for my city.
"But this is very unfair to Princess Helan." Jin Suting thought that it was obviously the negligence of the soldiers and generals that led to the defeat, but the princess was asked to make up for the consequences of the war.
"But we have no other way." Helan Ruizhe's face was full of helplessness. No matter how distant Helan Minzhi was from him, she was still his sister. He would not bear to let her marry to Simu Kingdom alone.
But there was no other way. Fuding State's current military and financial resources no longer supported them to fight against Simu State again. Moreover, they still had seven cities in the hands of Simu State.
"I'll go into the palace first. You stay in the East Palace and don't go to the garden unless necessary." That was a place of gossip, with maids everywhere. She couldn't be allowed to hear any rumors and have wild thoughts.
"Okay, I get it. I will take care of myself." Jin Suting sent him out and went to the kitchen to cook.
Jin Suting met Yuan Jing on the way. Thinking that there was still no news about Qin Er, she asked Yuan Jing casually.
Yuan Jing was really shocked because he still didn't know that Qin'er was missing.
Jin Suting was even more shocked. Helan Ruizhe had been helping her find Tan'er for so long, and how could Yuan Jing, her direct subordinate, not know about it?!
Yuan Jing explained that Helan Ruizhe did not give him the task of finding Tan'er. He had not seen Tan'er recently and thought she was still in the general's mansion. He was very sad and disappointed after not seeing her for half a month, but he was too embarrassed to ask.
Jin Suting was really impressed by this weird big man. She caught a message from his words - Helan Ruizhe did not seriously help her find Qin'er.
Everyone in the Eastern Palace and even in Funing City knew that Yuan Jing was Helan Ruizhe's most capable subordinate.
Is it true that Tan Er's disappearance is a very small matter for him and can be handed over to anyone?
Tan'er is not her maid, but her friend. If you don't value her friend, you don't value her!
She was so angry that she didn't want to cook. She stomped her feet and went to Helan Ruizhe's study to wait for him to come back and question her.
Yuan Jing was left alone in the wind, his hair disheveled. He was also sad because he had not yet given away the flowers he picked last time.
Back in the palace, the Queen Mother had recovered a lot. Because of what Jin Suting had found, she even ate two extra bowls of breakfast.
But he still cannot attend court, and today Helan Ruizhe is still presiding over the government on his behalf.
When he announced in the court that Prime Minister Tang would go to welcome Regent Si Shuo, Prime Minister Tang's brain went into a state of arrest for a moment and he did not object.
But after he recovered, he was quite happy. It wasn't that he was a traitor, but after hearing about Si Shuo's deeds, he admired the young man very much and thought that if he could help Tang Ruozhi, it would be fine.
After all, his daughter is no worse than that princess.
Prime Minister Tang was born with the appearance of a father and has the heart of a mother.
Helan Ruizhe's reason for assigning Prime Minister Tang was simple: Prince Regent Sishuo was very important, and the Crown Prince would lose his dignity if he personally went to greet him. Therefore, at least a high-ranking official from the Fuding court had to come to greet him. There were only a few important officials in the court, and the only one who could take on such an important task was Prime Minister Tang.
The glorious task of going to the outskirts of Funing City to pick up Regent Si Shuo tomorrow was handed over to Prime Minister Tang.

Gold, jade and silk.
The proprietress Yu Niang was in a daze. She cleaned the cabinet behind her where the materials were kept and mopped the floor in the room. She still felt unsatisfied and wanted to find something to do, but there was no guest in the room.
When she was bored to death, Master Yu Chenghao, who had come to the Grand Tutor's Mansion two days ago, came again.
"Our shop doesn't do business with men." There was no politeness in Yu Niang's words.
"The regent of Simu Kingdom will be here tomorrow." Yu Seung-ho leaned against the counter and looked straight into Yu Niang's eyes.
Yu Niang glanced at him and said, "The vegetable leaves and rotten eggs are ready."
The news that the enemy country's regent is coming to Funing City has spread everywhere, and the people are waiting to use things to smash the bastard who invaded their country to death, to let him see that the people of Fuding are not easy to mess with.
"That's not necessary." Yu Seung-ho was relatively rational in this regard. He advocated peace, and the regent's temper was unpredictable. If something really happened, the people on the border would be the ones who would suffer.
"No, you really don't want to go into the palace to see her?" Yu Seung-ho really couldn't understand why there would be such a cruel mother in this world.
"Did she beg you to tell me this?" Yu Niang asked back.
That’s not true. Helan Minzhi doesn’t even know about this. He wants to find Yu Niang and ask her to come into the palace to give Helan Minzhi a surprise.
Seeing him silent for a while, Yu Niang understood everything: "No one asked you to do this and that, but you rushed to do this and that, young man, do you have a lot of free time?"
Where is he free?
Not only was he busy managing Zuixianlou, he also had to work as a laborer for Helan Ruizhe anytime and anywhere.
