Chapter 422: Hug Duck



Can the three words "the art of bedroom" be brought up for discussion?

What’s more, it is such a solemn and serious occasion?

The ministers looked at each other, and then glanced furtively at the three people who had been certified by the princess.

Among the three, not one was smiling.

The emperor couldn't help but glance at Wen Yu.

The imperial sister, whose eyes always light up and who is full of energy when talking about handsome men, is exceptionally calm today. She is still leaning lazily, as if the art of sex has not aroused her interest at all.

The envoy continued: "The beauty also prepared a dance performance for the princess..."

At this time, Lin Yuzhi, who had been calm all the time, spoke first: "Christmas procedures are serious, and the gift-giving process has not yet begun. Why is the envoy in such a hurry?"

The envoy was choked by these words. He was just afraid that Wen Yu would punish them because of the rumors, so he quickly brought the beauty out to divert attention.

Now seeing that the princess had no intention of blaming him, he returned to his seat and waited quietly for the tribute to begin.

"Thank you for your reminder, Prime Minister. I am sorry for being rude."

"Your Highness, the beauty's dance will be performed for you when the gift is presented."

Originally, after the court ceremony, gifts should be presented in order of rank, from high to low, with foreign envoys being presented last.

The ministers' gifts were quite conventional, trying to avoid mistakes. They were nothing more than some rare treasures, such as wishful potted plants. They were nothing new, but they were presentable enough.

Wen Yu was naturally happy to receive the gifts, and the inventory of the princess's mansion would be expanded again. Who wouldn't like to have a bulging savings account?

Unlike other ministers, what Lin Yuzhi presented to Wen Yu was not some valuable treasure, but a large box of storybooks, which even contained many rare copies. It was extremely difficult to collect them, and one could tell at a glance that a lot of thought had gone into it.

Lin Yuzhi looked at Wen Yu and said, "I hope the princess likes it."

They are all new and interesting stories that I have never read before, how can I not like them?

Wen Yu did not hesitate to smile. After all, she really liked the storybook and it touched her heart.

So she smiled at Lin Yuzhi and said, "The Prime Minister is thoughtful."

Seeing this, Lin Yuzhi's eyes moved slightly, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but bend, but he tried his best to restrain himself: "As long as the princess likes it."

Only three people presented gifts to the emperor in front of the palace, but did not present gifts to the eldest princess.

Naturally they are Lu Ren, Jiang Qi, and Yue Lingfeng.

The ministers all knew clearly that they should wait until the banquet was over and then send the gift individually and privately. After that, they could even get favored by the princess. Isn't that wonderful?

But... wouldn't it be a bit too crowded for three people?

Lin Yuzhi could naturally figure out the key.

Lin Yuzhi: ...

He was the head of all officials and was the first to present gifts. If he was ranked after Lu Ren, he would learn not to present the gifts in the palace. In this way, he could also meet the princess again in private by presenting gifts.

Lin Yuzhi lowered his eyes. When it came to winning favor, his vision was too narrow and he could not compare to the three of them.

The emperor also said: "If you like any of my birthday gifts, you can take them."

Wen Yu curled her eyes and said, "Of course not. I would have taken it even if you hadn't told me, brother. Why should we be polite to each other?"

emperor:……

"That jade bottle I saw earlier feels pretty good. I can use it to put flowers in it. I also have the Duobao colored glass beads to make shoe uppers for me. I'll also move that oversized screen into my room. And that West Lake Longjing tea tastes pretty good. Let me have some..."

emperor:……

Minister:…

The eldest princess is trying to get rid of the emperor completely!

The emperor was both helpless and doting: "Okay, after you finish choosing these birthday gifts, you can go to my private storehouse to choose some more."

Wen Yu's eyes lit up: "Royal brother, I won't take it for nothing. I have also prepared a gift for you."

"Oh?" The emperor looked slightly expectant.

Wen Yu clapped her hands, and soon a palace servant came in carrying an iron bucket covered with a piece of cloth, so it was impossible to tell what was in the bucket.

Wen Yu signaled the palace servants to uncover the cloth, revealing a bucket full of ginger.

emperor:?

Minister:?

The envoys whose turn it is not yet to present gifts:?

Before Wen Yu could explain, the emperor clapped his hands and praised her mindlessly: "Good, good, good, my sister really put a lot of thought into preparing the gift. I am very pleased and happy."

Minister:…

Wen Yu: ...

"etc……"

"Don't worry, my sister. I will send this ginger to the imperial kitchen. I will eat it every day."

"No, this ginger..."

"Sister, no need to say more, I will be happy with whatever you give me."

As the emperor spoke, he took Wen Yu's hand and patted it gently.

Wen Yu: ...

The ministers were speechless. Their rare treasures were not worth the eldest princess' bucket of ginger.

Wen Yu really wanted to cover the emperor's mouth. She pulled her hand away, stood up, and said loudly: "Royal brother, listen to me, this is a bucket of ginger."

Emperor: "I know."

At this time, Yue Lingfeng stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have seen the things sent by the princess, and I can vaguely see that the ginger has been piled up into a mountain."

Wen Yu gave Yue Lingfeng an appreciative look and said with a smile: "Royal brother, this is a bucket of ginger mountain, which means 'unifying the country'."

The emperor's eyes lit up when he heard this.

All of His Highness's ministers also reacted and knelt down in unison.

"Long live the emperor who has unified the country—"

The envoys who had not yet fully understood what was said looked at each other, and could only follow the ministers' example and kneel down together.

Armani asked in a very low voice: "What does a bucket of ginger mountain mean?"

Aleshi: "Shut up."

Armani: …

The emperor was naturally delighted, and he sighed: "My sister, your gift today is very clever! I am very pleased. My sister, you have grown up..."

Wen Yu: ...

It's just a pun, the least valuable.

"Royal brother, there is a little duck named Hug Duck. Because its cry is very loud, what would other ducks call it?"

emperor:?

Minister:?

Wen Yu blinked and said, "Of course it's a good hug!"

emperor:……?
