Chapter 109 Go to Hell and Wait for Me
"Go and invite Minister Du out for a meeting."
The servant at the gate saw the army behind Qin Jinzhi and hurriedly entered the mansion.
He'd heard that if this guy was in a bad mood, he'd just slam the door down!
A short while later, Du Zhong, with a gloomy expression, came out.
"What business does the princess have with me?"
Now, whenever Du Zhong sees Qin Jinzhi, he feels a pain in his chest.
Qin Jinzhi waved her hand, and four soldiers behind her carried Du Chong to the entrance of the Du residence and put him down.
Du Zhong's expression immediately changed. "How could you be injured like this! Quick! Call the royal physician!"
Du Chong is the grandson of his younger brother.
Although he wasn't particularly bright, he had always been very obedient to him since childhood, and he had watched Du Chong grow up. Seeing Du Chong like this, he was very anxious.
Du Chong stared intently at Qin Jinzhi, and said haltingly, "Uncle, great-uncle, avenge me! Avenge me!"
Then, as if using his last ounce of strength, he said, "Qin Jinzhi, I curse you, may you die a horrible death and never be reincarnated!"
After saying that, he breathed his last.
Qin Jinzhi, however, remained calm, saying, "Then you can wait for me in hell."
Du Chong died with his eyes wide open in disbelief, and Du Zhong roared, "What exactly happened! Didn't you say you could bring him back to life unharmed!"
Qin Jinzhi said sincerely, "He's whole, not a single part of him is missing!"
Du Zhong roared, "Qin Jinzhi! What have you done?!"
Qin Jinzhi said innocently, "Of course I saved him! It's all the bandits' fault for being so untrustworthy. They said they would cut the rope if I took one step forward. I thought I couldn't take one step, so I took two steps. I didn't expect them to cut the rope!"
Du Zhong choked on his breath!
Is Qin Jinzhi even speaking human language?!
Qin Jinzhi waved her hand playfully as she watched Du Zhong's furious expression.
"But since I took your money, I should at least give you some explanation, shouldn't I?"
As she spoke, she threw the two human heads hanging on the horse's back over.
One of them hit Du Zhong squarely in the chest.
It almost knocked the old man to the ground.
Qin Jinzhi said with a smile, "Open it and take a look, you'll like it."
The servant at the door tore off the cloth containing the human heads.
"Ahhhhhhh!!!! A head!!!"
The servant was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.
Du Zhong looked at the two human heads.
He had never wanted anyone to die so much!
The bandits on the mountain had no choice but to be wiped out by the Zhenbei Army!
If she wanted to save Du Chong, he wouldn't be able to be harmed in the slightest!
Qin Jinzhi did it on purpose!
It was her! She killed Du Chong!
Qin Jinzhi blinked, "Minister Du, no need to thank me."
Then, pulling on the reins, he said, "Let's go back to the palace, General Li. What do you think I should be rewarded with by my grandfather later?"
Li Muli never expected that the princess would be so arrogant in the capital!
He dared to act this way even towards the Minister of the Imperial Secretariat.
Although it was inappropriate, he felt great about it!
These high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital never took them, these military officers, seriously.
Seeing Du Zhong so humiliated, Li Muli had never felt so refreshed!
"Your Majesty has always doted on the Princess, so I'm sure Your Majesty will grant her whatever she desires."
Du Zhong watched Qin Jinzhi's departing figure, his eyes bloodshot.
Upon arriving at the palace gate, a guard stepped forward with a smile. "Congratulations, Princess! I have heard the good news of your great victory in suppressing the bandits. Your Highness is truly brave and invincible. I wish you all the best."
This guard, who often took turns on duty with Li Jin, now looks exactly like a second Li Jin.
Qin Jinzhi was in a good mood and hummed in agreement.
The guard immediately said, "I will have someone bring the palanquin right away. Princess, please wait a moment."
Li Muli never expected that the princess held such an important position in the palace.
Even palanquins can be summoned at will.
The two arrived at the Imperial Study, where Eunuch Hong had been waiting for them at the door for some time.
"Your Highness, congratulations! Congratulations on your great victory in suppressing the bandits! His Majesty was overjoyed to hear the good news and has been waiting for you in the Imperial Study for a long time."
Qin Jinzhi smiled, not exposing Eunuch Hong's lie.
The emperor was overjoyed. A bunch of bandits facing the Zhenbei Army would be doing a disservice if they didn't die sooner, as it would be a waste of the military pay she had spent over the years.
She moved closer to Eunuch Hong, "Don't you think it's unreasonable to ask my grandfather to open his private treasury and reward me with something?"
"You wish!"
The emperor's voice suddenly rang out from the imperial study.
Qin Jinzhi heard it as soon as she arrived at the door. Before she could even feel happy, she heard that this little bastard was plotting against her private stash again.
"Get in here right now."
Qin Jinzhi shrugged. "I told you he was stingy, but he wouldn't admit it."
Li Muli silently wiped away his cold sweat from behind.
Is this how the princess and His Majesty have always interacted?
Qin Jinzhi led Li Muli into the imperial study.
Upon receiving Qin Jinzhi's signal, Li Muli said, "Your Majesty, the bandits have been completely annihilated, and their leader has been beheaded."
The emperor said calmly, "Hmm, well done. Starting today, deploy a detachment of the Zhenbei Army to patrol outside the city. The banditry must never happen again."
"yes!"
After Li Muli left, the emperor's expression immediately changed. "Don't even think about taking my private treasury!"
Qin Jinzhi scoffed, "I told you you're stingy. The Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, keeping your private treasury so tightly under your belt. Besides, do you even have the authority to manage your private treasury?"
With a single word from the Empress, the Emperor's private treasury was opened!
The emperor glared at her. "Were you injured during the bandit suppression?"
As soon as Qin Jinzhi entered, he saw bloodstains on the silver-white armor.
"I don't have to do anything myself, so why would I get injured?"
Qin Jinzhi followed the emperor's gaze and saw the bloodstains on her body. "Ah, this is the blood of those two bandit leaders."
The emperor was finally relieved.
Qin Jinzhi looked at the emperor and suddenly smiled, "There might be quite a few impeachment memorials at court tomorrow, so please be prepared."
Having nothing better to do, I decided to give the old man a little nudge.
The emperor sighed, realizing he shouldn't have felt sorry for this scoundrel.
Qin Jinzhi smiled and picked up a peach, sitting down at his feet.
"Judging by the time, Shen Changqing should be on his way back to the capital. The Shen family has dominated Jiangnan for a long time, and ordinary officials cannot solve the flood problem."
The emperor picked up the memorial beside him and began to review it.
"Do you have someone in mind?"
While munching on a peach, Qin Jinzhi asked, "Do you think Shen Mingtang would be willing to trade the entire Shen family for her brother's future?"
The emperor chuckled, "I knew you little rascal had this in mind."
Qin Jinzhi raised an eyebrow. "Grandfather, it's time for you to use your charm! Don't worry, I won't tell Grandmother."
The emperor threw down the memorial and then grabbed the qilin staff behind him.
"You little brat, I'd like to see who can save you today since your grandmother isn't here!"
Qin Jinzhi turned and ran, yelling, "What's wrong with you, old man! Is this how you treat a hero who fought against bandits!"
The emperor chased after her, whipping her, "What kind of meritorious official are you! You didn't even dismount your horse!"
Qin Jinzhi retorted confidently, "So what! Does not dismounting mean I'm not a hero?"
The emperor didn't get a cigarette, and Qin Jinzhi dashed off to the empress's palace.
That evening, at the entrance of Weiyang Palace, the emperor touched his nose somewhat awkwardly.
