Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn
Chapter 121 Father and daughter quarrel
The imperial concubine heard the noise, put on her clothes, and walked over with her waist twisted. She said in a charming voice: "Oh, it turns out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess. I was wondering who it was. It's just a few buns. Eat them if you like."
"Okay, then I'm welcome."
The two looked at each other, their eyes piercing with fire.
[As expected, she has the potential to cause trouble. 】
[Humph, she's just a young girl, so uneducated, only a queen could teach someone like her.]
The imperial concubine smiled and said, "Your Majesty, since the princess has something to ask you, I will not bother you any more. I will go back first. When Your Majesty is done, don't forget to come to my palace and taste my cooking skills."
Emperor Ming was very pleased. He hummed and looked at her with eyes as gentle as water.
Even after everyone disappeared, he kept staring.
Seeing this, Jiang Li curled his lips and said unhappily, "Father, everyone has gone far away, it's time to come back to your senses. Let's go in and talk. I have something important to say."
"Well, come in, Deshan, you come too."
After sitting down in the next hall, Emperor Ming drank a sip of tea and said, "Tell me, what do you want to see me about?"
"Give marriage."
"Puff~~, cough cough"
Emperor Ming was not paying attention and choked on his tea. He looked surprised and said, "What did you just say? Granting a marriage? Granting a marriage? Who are you marrying? Why don't I know about it?"
"What is the Queen doing? Why didn't she tell me about such an important matter?"
Seeing that he could blame his mother for all this, Jiang Li was speechless: "Father, how long have you not visited mother? Even if she knew, she couldn't tell you since she couldn't see her."
"Also, I am the first one to tell you about this matter. Why don't you ask the eunuch to go and invite the queen mother over so that I can tell you all at once, so you don't have to run back and forth."
Emperor Ming thought the same and waved his hand: "Deshan, go quickly and invite the queen over."
"Yes, old slave, go right away."
The father and daughter were the only ones left in the hall, staring at each other. The atmosphere was a little awkward. Jiang Li changed the subject and asked, "Father, did the imperial concubine say anything about the treacherous minister of the prime minister when she came to sleep with you?"
"speak nicely."
Jiang Li shrugged, looking nonchalant: "My son asked if she mentioned the Prime Minister. You should be clear-headed. The Prime Minister is a corrupt official who was able to embezzle so much gold and silver. I don't know where he got the money from."
Emperor Ming's eyes flickered. For some reason, he felt inexplicably guilty. He said slowly, "I have already promised the imperial concubine that I will release the prime minister. Hey, don't be so hasty."
"I have thought this through carefully. The Prime Minister is a corrupt official, but the things in the warehouse have all been taken to the national treasury. It's not a big loss, right?"
"It doesn't matter if you use the gold and silver treasures in the treasury to exchange for the lives of the prime minister's family. It's a good deal. You should also ask me if you can't kill the prime minister."
Jiang Li sneered: "When you raided the general's mansion, did you ever think about why you were willing to use gold and silver treasures in exchange for the lives of their entire family, so you showed leniency to the prime minister? But it is true, after all, the Mo family has no daughters in the harem."
"If you can seduce the emperor with your body like the imperial concubine, you will be acquitted even if you rebel. Nowadays, it is still useful to have a daughter. It can protect the family at a critical moment."
The sarcasm made Emperor Ming blush and he felt as embarrassed as if he had been slapped in the face.
Emperor Ming raised his hand in anger, ready to hit, but when he met those dead eyes, a chill rose from the soles of his feet. He felt that if he slapped him, something would be lost.
Jiang Li watched coldly, she knew that she shouldn't have too much hope in a tyrant. Humph, if she wasn't afraid of his death and the chaos caused by the fight for the throne, she would have slapped him to death long ago.
Damn, she was so angry that her lungs were about to explode.
"Li'er, you are the one who knows best whether the Prime Minister has rebelled or not. No one else but you can hide the dragon robe quietly in the Prime Minister's study, right?"
"I have kept this matter a secret for you. Why can't you let the Prime Minister go? He is old, and even if he has some thoughts, he is powerless. If you seize his warehouse, I think the Prime Minister will not dare to have those thoughts in the future."
Jiang Li sneered: "Haha, the General's Mansion was also wronged. Why didn't we see the emperor standing on their side so firmly? Now he speaks for the Prime Minister everywhere."
"Those who know about this are the relationship between the emperor and his subjects. Those who don't know would think that the prime minister is your lover. Otherwise, why would you trust him so much and cover up such blatant corruption and bribery so easily?"
"Tsk tsk, father is really magnanimous."
Emperor Ming's face darkened. "You are such a rebellious girl, you are too presumptuous. I will ask the Queen how she taught you."
Jiang Li saw him stand up. He felt that he was a head shorter than he was when he was sitting. He thought that although he could be shorter, he could not lose in momentum. So he jumped directly onto the table and looked down at him.
"Why, is it so great to be tall? You even asked how your mother taught you. Even if she taught you poorly, at least she taught you. Your father is a father, what did you teach him? You are so soft-hearted that you cannot stand the temptations of a woman in bed."
Seeing that she was going too far, Emperor Ming was so angry that his face turned red and his lips trembled: "You... you really are..."
A voice came from outside the palace: "The Queen has arrived~~"
The two looked at each other, snorted, and turned their faces away, not bothering to look at each other again.
Jiang Li also jumped down from the table and sat on the chair as if nothing had happened. Emperor Ming sat down and looked at the two obvious footprints on the desk. His face darkened for a moment.
When the Queen came in, she noticed that the atmosphere was a little off, and she said softly, "Li'er, you came back safely, why didn't you go to see your mother? Did you have a quarrel with your father? Why do you have such a stern face?"
"Mother, it's Father who's being unreasonable, otherwise I wouldn't be arguing."
"……Um??"
Emperor Ming snorted coldly, "Empress, this is how you taught her. Look, she is getting even more outrageous now. She has no respect for me and speaks without restraint. I am almost pissed off to death."
The more he spoke, the angrier he became, and he covered his chest with his hands, looking a little uncomfortable.
At this time, a charming voice sounded outside the palace: "Oh, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? The imperial physician has said that you can't get angry. It's not good for your health."
As she spoke, she smoothed his back, her eyes full of worry.
The imperial concubine looked at Jiang Li with a bit of blame in her eyes: "Princess, His Majesty is your father after all. How can you speak like this and deliberately anger your father? What if something bad happens out of anger? What should we do then?"
Jiang Li felt so uncomfortable listening to this. Who was she? She was just a concubine at best. Who had the right to educate her?
"Oh, didn't the imperial concubine go back? Why are you back again? We are a family of three and it has nothing to do with you. Who asked you to interrupt? As a concubine, you should have the consciousness of a concubine."
"My mother is the legal wife, I am the eldest princess, and my father is the emperor. Who are you to dare to interrupt? Have you forgotten that the prime minister hid the dragon robe and attempted to rebel, and we have not dealt with it yet?"
