Yan Shiyue nodded seriously.
Zhao Xiangning continued timidly, "I have written many poems for Your Highness in my boudoir. I only hope that Your Highness will have the honor to have a look at them." She raised a cloth bag above her head with a trembling hand.
As I said, Yan Shiyue is not very good at flirting with girls and doesn’t like girls who take the initiative.
But at the same time, as a fan-loving person, she has always been more tolerant of fans' small gifts, so she took it and said with a smile: "Thank you."
There was a Chinese character "Yue" embroidered on the small silk bag. Yan Shiyue opened it purely out of politeness, but when he took a look, his expression changed slightly.
She looked at it carefully and said, "Is this what you want to give me?"
Zhao Xiangning was originally shy and was stunned by her reaction.
Then Yan Shiyue picked up the papers and shook them in front of her.
When Zhao Xiangning saw it, she stood up suddenly: "No! No! This is not... this is not mine!" She was so scared that she knelt down and screamed: "Your Highness, this is not mine!"
"Okay." Yan Shiyue took it back and asked her, "Whose family are you from?"
...
...
Zhao Xiangning was so frightened that she replied after a long while, "My father is Guang, the uncle of Guangcheng, Zhao Yecheng."
Yan Shiyue nodded and turned away.
Here is a petition.
He sued Jin Hejiao, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, also known as Prince Yu, for the crime of murdering his brother.
Yan Shiyue went to the front.
She hadn't changed her clothes yet, and when she showed up, the group of adults outside were shocked.
After they saw clearly that it was her, they all greeted her, secretly surprised in their hearts. They had never realized that the Prime Minister was so good-looking... and his manners were also very graceful, not at all the fierce appearance he usually had.
Yan Shiyue was reminded by their eyes that she was more beautiful than flowers today, and her voice softened: "Which one is Guangcheng Bo?"
Then one of them stepped out and saluted: "I am Zhao Yecheng, your humble servant, and I pay my respects to the Prime Minister."
Yan Shiyue nodded and said, "Your daughter is suing Prince Yu. Are you aware of this?"
Guangcheng Bo's face changed: "What? No no! Your humble servant... there must be some misunderstanding!"
Yan Shiyue said seriously, "It was your daughter who handed the complaint to me personally."
Guangcheng Bo said anxiously: "I will check it out immediately!"
Yan Shiyue nodded, glanced at everyone, and walked in leisurely. Emperor Ming Yan was in a meeting, so she went straight into the side hall. After a while, Emperor Ming Yan called her in.
Seeing her dressed like this, Emperor Ming Yan looked up and took a closer look, then said with a smile: "Yes, my little girl, no one can compare to her in terms of beauty. She should be more gentle and behave like a young lady."
Yan Shiyue immediately bowed tenderly, twisting her hair shyly and saying, "Father, you're so annoying. I'm usually very gentle... "
Emperor Ming Yan spat out the tea on the spot and coughed a few times.
Yan Shiyue stepped forward to pat his back, and said innocently while lifting his eyelids: "Aye, what's wrong with you? You scared my little heart, I'll punch your chest with my little fist!"
"That's enough! Stop talking!" Emperor Ming Yan coughed and laughed, "I am really old and can't stand this stimulation. Speak to me properly!"
"Oh!" Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "Aye, please call A Jing to come for dinner. I finally dressed up and sat there for more than an hour! Don't waste it."
Emperor Ming Yan glanced at her sideways, and she looked back with confidence.
Emperor Ming Yan smiled and raised his hand, motioning Gu Jiuxing to call someone, while asking, "What happened again?"
Yan Shiyue took out the complaint and showed it to him, while explaining the situation.
Emperor Ming Yan was always tolerant of such small actions.
In his opinion, if the water is too clear, there will be no fish. This does not mean that everyone has to be corrupt and break the law, but that no one is perfect. Everyone has some little thoughts and will use various means to achieve their goals. People who do not know how to use any means are mostly not good at handling things.
When it comes to women, it is indeed a bit despicable.
But he naturally got ahead, which is also a kind of skill.
Emperor Mingyan asked, "What do you want?"
Yan Shiyue solemnly cupped his hands and said, "Father, I am now assisting the Ministry of Justice, so naturally I will hand it over to the Ministry of Justice to handle it."
Emperor Mingyan smiled and said, "I have been telling you that you have a really smart little brain, but you just don't use it normally!"
The father and daughter were in no hurry to make arrangements, they just sat there chatting. After a while, Huo Qijing came, and Yan Shiyue immediately sat down with a dignified look on her face.
Huo Qijing came in and greeted her, his eyes glued to her. After a while, Emperor Ming Yan couldn't stand it anymore and scolded with a smile: "Get out! Don't show off in front of me! Go eat at the prince's place!"
So the two of them went to the prince and gave him a bowl of free dog food.
After dinner, Huo Qijing left, and Yan Shiyue called Li Jinzhong over and solemnly handed the matter over to him.
Li Jinzhong had been impeached by the censor and fined one year's salary. Since this matter was about his political enemies, he would definitely put in his best effort.
Yan Shiyue then said, "The progress of this case must be reported to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and me every day. It must be handled impartially without bias."
Li Jinzhong bowed quickly in response.
As soon as he left, Yan Shiyue leaned on the armrest and asked the prince, "When do you think Prince Yu will take action?"
The prince said, "It won't be long, it should be in the next two days."
Yan Shiyue nodded, and waited until the time was almost up before getting up and going to the Queen.
The queen had just woken up from her nap, and when she saw her she said, "I have spent a whole day asking your father for you, and you are gone again."
"That can't be helped!" Yan Shiyue asked someone to prepare some water, and said, "After receiving the complaint, we must deal with the business first."
The Queen said, "Jin Yu said that you gave birth to a child again? I'm not saying anything bad about you, but I finally managed to smooth things over for you, so you should take your time."
"It's okay," Yan Shiyue said, "Even if it works, I don't know when it will come out. I am mainly doing this for Prime Minister Xu."
The queen didn't ask any more questions.
In the previous dynasty, many people died because of the harem's interference in politics. In this dynasty, this is very taboo. The deposed Queen Su had always wanted to get her hands on him but never succeeded, so the Queen was more open-minded.
After all, her son is the crown prince, and even her daughter has become a prime minister. This is unprecedented, so why should she worry about it?
Yan Shiyue changed her clothes at the Queen's place and had dinner with her before leaving. When she returned to Danxiao Palace where she lived, she saw Qu Sinian waiting outside.
It was quite miserable for this self-recommended military advisor. His lord had never asked him for advice, nor had he ever taken the initiative to meet him. He could only run here on his own... and couldn't find anyone.
Qu Sinian stepped forward and saluted: "Prime Minister."
Yan Shiyue nodded: "What's the matter?"
"Yes," Qu Sinian said, "Can we go in and talk?"
"Sure." She was still very talkative, so she invited him in, served him tea, and a small bowl of watermelon with the seeds removed and sugar sprinkled on it. She held the bowl and ate slowly.
Qu Sinian asked, "I heard that the Prime Minister received another complaint?"
"Yeah, that's right."
Qu Sinian said: "I wonder what it is?"
