Murong Jin arrived late, and the sound of her wheelchair turning on the grass drew the attention of everyone in the Imperial Garden.
Murong Jin's lips curled up slightly. "I know I'm good-looking. It's fine to admire and be amazed, but don't look at me with that murderous gaze."
Otherwise, I would kill you first.
"Left side, in the shadows."
Something has slipped in, so naturally it needs to be dealt with.
Upon learning this, Yi Er's gaze sharpened, becoming increasingly intense.
Be vigilant.
The enemy doesn't move now, and neither do they, but once they sit down, they'll secretly eliminate the enemy.
Now that their master intends to live in peace with His Majesty, they will naturally protect His Majesty.
Upon arriving at the center, Murong Jin looked up at Emperor Lan and said, "Your subject, Murong Jin, pays respects to Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, there is no need for such formalities. Please take a seat."
Murong Jin sat on the left, not even glancing at the officials.
We just waited patiently for the stage to begin.
In the middle, dancers were performing. Murong Jin watched the red ribbon being swung at him without changing his expression.
Yi Er stood beside him, occasionally refilling her tea. Their master was forbidden from drinking alcohol, and now he only drank tea and plain water...
The table was set with music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but Murong Jin wasn't interested in any of them. She slowly sipped her tea and ate the food on the table.
It was specially made for her. Looking at the tea and snacks, every minister had the same food in front of them—no chili peppers, not even anything oily…
A slight smile played on Di Junlan's lips. He was quite thoughtful; he had wronged all the civil and military officials for her sake.
Yi Er served her food, and even though Murong Jin didn't say anything, Yi Er knew what she wanted to eat.
After all, the master's temper was not good at first after he was put in a wheelchair. He was very irritable, especially after eating food he didn't like. He would usually have a gloomy face.
"My lord, I have already sent people to investigate."
Murong Jin: "Hmm, this fish is quite good."
"Okay." Yi Erduo served her more food and then ladled out a bowl of soup for her.
"Master, this soup tastes quite good, would you like to try some?"
Murong Jin disliked it at first glance because it was a tonic soup.
"don't want."
Yi Er: "..."
"If you don't drink it, I will complain to His Majesty that you said the food he asked the imperial kitchen to make wasn't good..."
Murong Jin: "..."
"Go ahead and complain, do you think I'm afraid of him?"
Yi Er: "..."
That was a miscalculation.
She didn't get to drink the soup in the end, but when the princess from the Mongol Kingdom was performing, she gave her a few flirty glances.
She doesn't engage in lesbian relationships.
“The Mongolian envoy, Kadawu, has met with His Majesty the Great Cheng Kingdom.”
Emperor Junlan: "No need for formalities."
"Greetings, Regent."
Murong Jin: "Mm."
"Kadawu has come here today because His Majesty wishes to establish a marriage alliance with Da Cheng."
"Our princess is beautiful. Does His Majesty the Great Cheng have someone in mind?"
A princess was now standing next to Murong Jin, staring intently at her.
Murong Jin: "..."
Just as everyone was staring at them, Murong Jin spoke up: "I am not worthy of such a title, and the princess is too kind. Besides, the Meng Kingdom does not need to obtain peace through marriage."
The woman's eyes flickered slightly, and her voice was delicate: "The Regent is right. The Mongol Kingdom does not need to achieve stability through such means. Let's let this matter rest."
Murong Jin's lips curled up, "The group leader's spirit."
The woman looked at him, and her opinion of the regent changed.
He thought they were coming for a marriage alliance, but this person said something that not only praised the strength of the Mongol Kingdom, but also resolved his own difficulties.
He didn't want a marriage alliance.
She was too.
The matter was thus resolved, but Emperor Junlan never expected that Murong Jin would directly admit to being impotent...
Now the entire court and the whole world know that you are impotent... How can he get the imperial physician to treat him now?
How can I give him women then?
In just a few years, at least leave Murong Jin with one or two offspring.
Midway through the banquet, some people were already drunk and had forgotten all about their business when someone secretly appeared.
Di Junlan looked down at Murong Jin, and the guards beside him appeared. There were many people guarding him in the shadows, all arranged by Murong Jin.
Emperor Junlan sensed an unfamiliar presence in an instant. He narrowed his eyes and saw the person who was pouring tea in front of Murong Jin take out a knife from where he had hidden it and slash at Murong Jin.
Yi Er slit the throats of many people in an instant!
"Guards! There's an assassin!"
For a moment, there was a chaotic scene, but Murong Jin calmly drank her tea, and people with the patterns on Murong Jin's clothes appeared next to Di Junlan.
It was Murong Jin's bodyguard who specially arranged for him to be protected.
Di Junlan felt much more at ease, after all, there was no knife to his throat, and Murong Jin was not the one who arranged the assassin.
"Take them down." After finishing his tea, Murong Jin uttered these two words, and in an instant, all the assassins were subdued.
Yi Er checked the breathing of some of the assassins, then shook his head. Some had committed suicide by poison, so he only managed to grab one. Before he could even bite down, something was already stuffed into his mouth.
Murong Jin remained expressionless, her voice icy: "Hand her over to the Dali Temple for trial."
Emperor Junlan sat above, watching Murong Jin and the ministers' actions with composure and calm. Even when assassins came to his side, he remained unfazed.
The banquet was ruined, and that was the end of it.
After all the ministers had left, Murong Jin looked at the man beside her and asked, "Does Your Majesty have any instructions for me?"
