Ying Wuji smiled and said, "Of course they do! They want to make money from us and become big bosses themselves. What are they dreaming of? By the way, when can this scene be performed?"
The bookstore and the opera troupe are the two people's joint businesses, and Hua Chao pays special attention to these two businesses.
If she wasn't so obsessed with being in the theatre troupe, she could have become a qualified businessman.
Hua Chao pursed her lips and said, "On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, you will get it then too!"
"Of course!"
Ying Wuji put his arm around her waist and said, "We can't let the boss lady support our troupe alone."
Hearing the title "Boss Lady", Hua Chao blushed, put her arms around Ying Wuji's neck, and kissed him gently on the lips.
…
The next few days.
It was a pretty peaceful life.
Ying Wuji showed up in front of Zhao Ji several times, showing off his minor skill in cutting through space with his sword, and occasionally his true Qi became disordered.
This caused Zhao Ji to scold him for a whole hour, saying that Ying Shisan's moves were too fierce and that one must not be too eager for quick success when practicing, otherwise one might go astray. He also told him to be extremely careful in his future meditations, otherwise if he became a useless person, the royal family would not provide him with a retirement pension.
When being scolded, Ying Wuji admitted his mistakes with a very good attitude.
However, disordered true qi would still appear from time to time, but it always remained within an acceptable range.
Zhao Ji was helpless about the situation. He could only ask the imperial physician to prescribe some conditioning prescriptions for him and then devote his energy to government affairs.
In contrast, Ying Wuji's life was much happier.
Go shopping with Tangtang during the day.
Have dinner with Hua Chao in the evening.
The overlap between the two women's activity areas was not high, and no accidents occurred over the past few days.
The days passed peacefully and harmoniously.
The overall atmosphere of Jiangcheng seems to be the same.
All the families seem to be enjoying the New Year atmosphere.
Until one day.
Midnight.
Chongli Hall.
Eunuch Li's loud voice rang out.
"Your Majesty, the Prince Consort has arrived!"
"Let him in!"
A moment later.
Ying Wuji bowed respectfully to Zhao Ji and said, "Father! It's so late, why did you summon me here? What's the matter?"
Zhao Ji scolded with a stern face: "Why are you asking me what's the matter? If someone else asked me this, they would have been chopped off and thrown out to feed the dogs! You little bastard have been living a carefree life these days, accompanying this and that!
Did he comprehend it thoroughly? Or is he still studying the Zhuanxu Ancient Calendar?
It’s okay to slack off in practice.
You don't care about political affairs at all.
If it keeps on like this.
How can I trust you to be Ning'er's right-hand man?"
He cursed very loudly.
The eunuchs and palace maids outside the palace could hear it clearly and shrank their necks. His Majesty had not been so angry for a long time.
Ying Wuji admitted his mistake at the speed of light: "I know I am wrong, and I will correct it immediately!"
Change it immediately?
I hope I will dare to do it again next time!
I've hinted to you many times these days, are you pretending not to understand?
Zhao Ji glared at Ying Wuji. He felt both love and hate for him. How could such a promising potential minister fall into the arms of a gentle woman and be unable to extricate himself?
He's been a dad for so long.
When I was teaching Zhao Ning, I had never felt so suffocated.
My Ning'er is gifted in every aspect and extremely self-disciplined. She will not do anything that affects state affairs and cultivation unless I ask her to do so.
Not like this brat.
After tasting the sweetness, he no longer cares about important matters.
But it’s not all bad.
Although Zhao Ji was angry with Ying Wuji, he became more and more confident in him in the past few days because according to his original expectation, after being valued, Ying Wuji would definitely pursue power in order to secure his position.
If this is the case, after the reform is completely completed, this kid will definitely become the most powerful official, and the crown prince will also be his son by then.
There's no telling how big his ambitions will grow.
But now it seems just right!
You push him and he will walk.
If you don't push him, he will just lie there.
OK!
Seeing that he was scolding himself to his heart's content but his emotions were stable, Ying Wuji knew that his recent performance had achieved his goal.
He smiled awkwardly, "Father! Actually, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on me, because you also said that Caimei can only go out during the New Year. I just thought that I couldn't help with the official business these days, so I just happened to accompany her to avoid her feeling sad that she couldn't leave the palace in a few days."
Zhao Ji raised his eyelids: "Oh? Why, do you still want me to praise you as a romantic?"
Ying Wuji was a little embarrassed: "If you want to praise me, it's not impossible!"
"Have some shame!"
Zhao Ji was also amused by him. He stroked his beard and thought for a moment before saying, "How about this! After these days, Cai Mei can leave the palace for two hours every three days. I treat her as my own daughter, so I naturally can't bear to keep her locked up. I just need to prevent her from coming into contact with the Li family. Do you understand what I mean?"
Of course Ying Wuji understood.
Before Li Caitan got into trouble, he had a lot of unpleasantness with the Li family.
Tangtang took the initiative to ask to enter the palace, and her relationship with the Li family was a bit strained.
But this does not affect the fact that they are members of the Li family. How could the Li family allow their investments to get out of control?
Tangtang has always been in contact with the Li family, but because of Qingjiang Palace, the connection is not particularly close.
If he went out too often, the Li family would definitely create opportunities for them to meet. As the saying goes, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. In addition, the Li family is cunning. If Zhao Ning's secret is exposed, it would be a loss.
