[Chapter 23, Chapter 350: The Princess and the Young Tyrant 5]
"Princess, it's already autumn, how come mosquitoes are still biting you? Your mouth is swollen."
The next morning, Wen Shinian had just gotten up when Xiao Cai, who came in with water, looked confused when she saw her.
"Swelling?" Wen Shinian looked surprised, and thought to himself: It's just a big mosquito that caught me and sucked me for a long time.
Xiao Cai put down the water and helped Wen Shinian walk to the mirror and sit down
"Look, my upper and lower lips are swollen."
Wen Shinian looked at the mirror.
In the mirror, I see myself with no makeup on, except for my lips which are bright red.
Rather than saying that the lips are swollen, it is better to say that they are lip augmented.
Wen Shinian rolled his eyes inwardly.
This mosquito was quite poisonous. Even after a whole night, her mouth was still swollen.
"It's okay. The swelling will go away after breakfast. It's nothing to worry about."
"After you have finished your meal, I will go to Eunuch Fushan to ask for some incense so that the princess will not be bitten."
Wen Shinian smiled but said nothing.
Even if you light it, you can't kill the mosquitoes.
The relationship between the master and servant was warm and harmonious, but the morning court on the other side was about to break out into quarrels because of her.
Xie Jin's confidant followed his instructions and proposed that the princess be allowed to enter the palace as a concubine. However, this request was refuted by the older generation of ministers as soon as it was made.
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible! Although Prince Duan has passed away, the princess was originally brought here as a princess consort. If you arbitrarily change her status to a consort, I'm afraid the enemy will use this as a provocation!"
Xie Jin's expression remained unchanged, and his hoarse voice became gentle and soft.
"Oh, Lord Wang, what you mean is that being my concubine is worse than being a princess?"
A wife and a concubine, how can they be compared?
Minister Wang was talking in his heart, but on the surface he knelt down and paid his respects.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. This old minister has no such intention. I just feel that such a serious matter requires your personal consultation."
"Why bother with so much trouble? Since you feel that being a concubine is unfair to the princess, then I will grant you the position of empress."
Xie Jin's words immediately plunged the hall into dead silence.
Civil and military officials lowered their heads and looked at each other.
At this moment, both the new and old factions knelt down together and shouted, "Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Xie Jin rolled his eyes.
He had been thinking about this matter for a whole day and night, and he thought about it three times, thinking about his ancestors.
"Just now you said being a concubine wasn't good for the princess, and now you're saying being the queen isn't good either! Could it be that letting a princess who came here to maintain peace marry a dead man and become a widow is the best thing for her?!"
"Have you all become fools after studying both literature and martial arts? You all have useless brains, only seeking wealth and power for yourselves. Even if you open your mouths, all you can do is say 'calm down' and 'think twice'."
"Sometimes I think pigs are smarter than you."
Xie Jin's voice was calm, but the aura in his words was still as sharp as a knife looming over everyone's head.
These words are very hurtful and insulting.
"Your Majesty, calm down! The princess who married into the alliance is from Wen. It is really inappropriate for her to be the queen of our country!"
"Yes, Your Majesty! If her heart is still in Wen State, and she takes the opportunity to steal the national defense map, it will be a disaster for the country, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, please reconsider! This is inappropriate!"
“…”
The ministers below were talking to each other, but none of their words pleased Xie Jin.
His eyebrows twitched, he felt irritated and wanted to kill everyone who annoyed him.
"If I insist on making her the empress, will you all risk your lives to make such a protest?"
When Xie Jin ascended the throne, someone was killed in the hall just for opposing his ascension.
Later, when he issued an order, someone expressed his dissatisfaction by threatening to commit suicide.
Of course he knew that these were all the work of Prince Duan, but he didn't care.
It's just a few deaths, which doesn't hurt him at all.
"Your Majesty, in such an important matter, the princess who is to be married off is the most important subject of discussion. Why not call the princess over and ask for her opinion?" one of the ministers suggested.
His words were soon echoed by other ministers.
But in a breath, the person who had just shouted at him to think twice began to ask him to summon Wen Shinian.
When everyone lay down, Xie Jin stood up and prepared to draw his sword.
He felt that he should let them see some blood today.
But if he didn't kill anyone for two days, they would forget about his behavior.
"Report! Princess Wen requests an audience!"
Xie Jin paused and looked up suddenly.
He was facing the entrance of the hall, and from a distance, he could see a slender green figure standing at the door.
Xie Jin's face darkened, and he did not show the joy that others showed.
Wen Shinian's arrival at this time obviously disrupted all his actions.
But the sun has already come out, and it doesn’t seem good to let her stay outside all the time?
Xie Jin withdrew his hand, turned around twice, and finally frowned and let the person in reluctantly.
"Wen Shinian greets Emperor Jing, may Emperor Jing live long and happily."
After getting consent, Wen Shinian walked into the hall alone.
His thin and slender figure was very conspicuous among the kneeling ministers.
Xie Jin stood there, his eyes had been on her ever since she came in.
"Get up." Xie Jin didn't sit down either. He just stood on the platform and looked down at Wen Shinian. "Princess, is there something wrong?"
Wen Shinian stood up, his eyes still lowered.
He was very unhappy with her being like this.
Xie Jin said again: "Raise your head."
When Wen Shinian raised her head and looked at him as she said, Xie Jin smiled with satisfaction.
But the smile didn't last long, and it disappeared completely because of Wen Shinian's request.
"Thank you, Emperor Jing, for taking me in yesterday. As the princess who is to be married to a foreign country, Shi Nian should continue to fulfill her responsibilities."
Bullshit, she just wants to have a forbidden love affair.
Judging from the current developments, it seems that the male protagonist in this world does not need her strategy.
It just so happens that she hasn't had this kind of experience yet in her current relationship.
It will definitely be exciting!!!
Thinking about what might happen next, Wen Shinian's cheeks turned pink with excitement.
But in Xie Jin's eyes, this behavior meant that Wen Shinian was happy about going to Prince Duan's Mansion.
Why on earth!
How can he be better than that dead guy!
They obviously haven't met him before, so why did they choose him? !
Xie Jin couldn't laugh anymore.
He looked at Wen Shinian with a cold face.
Wen Shinian's eyes flashed, and the redness on her face disappeared, turning pale.
Before Xie Jin could react, Wen Shinian knelt down on both knees. In just a moment, he knelt in front of him like the ministers on both sides.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Xie Jin: “…”
So angry!!!
So angry, so angry, so angry!!!
Why!
Why wouldn't she want to stay with me!!!
"If you want to get out, get out now!"
Xie Jin said these words in anger, and left with red eyes and waving his sleeves.
Wen Shinian raised his head and peeked at his departing back, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
The morning court ended in a bad mood.
After Wen Shinian returned, he packed up his things without saying a word and left quickly with Xiao Cai.
Upon receiving the news, Xie Jin smashed everything in the hall on the spot.
"Wen Shinian! You think you can escape from me like this!"
"Don't even think about it! Don't even think about it!"
Xie Jin was panting, with a dark aura spreading over his body, and his eyes were crazy and stubborn.
"No one can take away what I like! Not even a dead person! Don't even think about it!"
Xie Jin strode out and gave instructions again as he passed Ji Feng.
"It seems that Prince Duan doesn't need a burial site, so destroy the tomb."
"I want it to be completely destroyed!"
