After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

Wait for Chen, the spy, and the envoy to leave the hall.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became relaxed.

The emperor was happy, and the court officials were all happy too.

When leaving court, the emperor was in high spirits. He waved his hand and signaled the court officials to gather in a side hall later to drink and celebrate.

The court officials all said yes in a loud voice.

Yuanruan originally didn't want to join in the fun, but he heard from the system that Qi Yue was not going hunting today and was going to accompany Yuanruan to participate in the courses to train Yuanruan's physical fitness and archery.

As soon as these words were spoken, Yuan Ruan immediately hugged the prince tightly and wanted to go to the banquet together.

Every time Qi Yue joined in training her.

Yuanruan felt that the intensity of the training had gone from ordinary military training to special forces training, and it had increased dramatically. Yuanruan was afraid.

……

Soon, the emperor and his entourage arrived at the Lianxin Hall, which was next to an artificial lake.

This place is surrounded by mountains and water, so it can be a bit cold when the breeze blows in winter.

Yuan Ruan sat in the prince's arms and couldn't help sneezing several times.

The prince immediately became nervous, asking if his hands were cold and then asking if he wanted some water.

This attentive attitude made the eunuch who came over speechless. He wanted to say, "Your Highness, please take a rest. This kind of attentive work is for me! Please don't compete with me for my livelihood!"

The emperor, who was sitting at the top, saw this and said, "Please warm up a bowl of ginger milk first."

The eunuch beside him quickly took the order and left.

Everyone in the palace knew how favored Yuanruan was, so not only was warm ginger milk served, but soon the table in front of Yuanruan's desk was filled with food.

Yuan Ruan looked at the empty desks in front of the court officials, and then looked at the desk in front of him that was almost full.

Her chubby face became hot, and she pushed the prince's arm hastily: "Brother Prince, you guys eat first, the elders eat first."

The prince chuckled and scooped a spoonful of ginger milk for Yuan Ruan: "Eat yours, be careful not to catch a cold."

At this time, the palace maids also placed the wine on the table in front of the courtiers. Yuan Ruan was too lazy to say anything and drank it in one gulp. But after taking two bites, Yuan Ruan looked at the prince in confusion: "Brother Prince, this is too spicy, not sweet at all."

The prince said gently, "Jiu'er has a toothache. She just saw the imperial physician yesterday. She can't eat sweets."

Yuan Ruan's heart tightened, and he quickly tried the other cakes on the table. Wow, all of them smelled good, but tasted like a bland starch. The most outrageous thing was the mung bean cake, which actually tasted salty!

Yuan Ruan had lost her appetite and looked at the prince: "Brother Prince, my teeth are healed and I don't feel any pain."

The prince smiled gently, "Eat dessert after your teeth have changed."

Yuanruan's eyes went dark. It only happened after he changed his teeth?!

That will take several years!

Yuanruan immediately asked the system: [Tong'er, is there any task that rewards desserts? ]

System: [No! ]

Yuanruan was stunned and asked suspiciously: [You answered so quickly? Tong'er is the best system that loves me the most. He won't lie to me, right? ]

The system was silent for a while: [Again, before the tooth decay medicine comes out, there is no dessert reward in the reward pool. ]

Yuanruan stared: [……]

The system immediately gave up and sent out a pitiful electronic tremolo: [I'm sorry, Ah Ruan, but, but you look so pitiful with your toothache. Actually... I also tried to exchange toothache medicine with my friends, but no one had it. But Ah Ruan, don't worry, I have submitted an application for the toothache medicine reward to the main system, Ah Ruan, wait for me.]

Yuanruan is actually okay with desserts, it’s just human nature to be “craving” for them.

Now the system was so anxious that it flashed two huge electronic tears.

Yuanruan comforted him: [It’s okay. I don’t want to eat dessert. Actually, there’s no need to bother the main system. Tong’er, you are the best.]

The system was touched: [Woo woo woo, Ah Ruan you are so nice. 】

The system and Yuanruan stayed here for a while.

At the celebration banquet.

Accompanied by the sound of string instruments of the musicians, graceful dancing figures slowly appeared. They twisted their bodies, and the broad clouds rendered layer upon layer of white waves. Their graceful figures danced lightly in the white waves, sometimes like a phoenix spreading its wings, and sometimes like immortals flying away.

The court officials toasted each other, and after a few rounds of drinking, everyone's face turned red.

Yuanruan yawned.

System: [Aruan, are you feeling a little bored? ]

Yuanruan: [The pretty sisters are still good-looking, but this party is not exciting at all...]

At this time, the Minister of War, whose face suddenly turned red, stood up and said with a folded hand: "Your Majesty, I, I have something to report. Important matters, please report. Secret, secret report."

Everyone:! ! !

System: [Secret fold! Ah Ruan, do you think the excitement is about to begin? ]

Yuan Ruan looked at the drunken Minister of War and felt a little suspicious.

Upon seeing this, the emperor waved his hand and the chief eunuch immediately jumped out and arranged for people to take away the dancers, musicians, and palace servants who were serving them. Then the chief eunuch very considerately closed the door.

The emperor then said, "You speak."

The Minister of War immediately began to speak.

What he meant was that Daxia could focus on external military development routes in the next five years, for example, "punching the State of Chen, stepping on the State of Shu, and finally taking down the State of Chu".

The other court officials were all at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He must have been drunk. He actually expressed some unrealistic fantasies in front of the emperor.

The emperor narrowed his eyes and said suddenly: "You said the first step is Chen State, then where do you want to attack?!"

"Jingchuan!" The Minister of War responded quickly, stood up and pulled open his shirt.

Yuan Ruan took a look and saw that although the Minister of War was old, his chest muscles were still well-developed and covered with old scars.

At this time, the Minister of War excitedly pointed to several scars on his upper body and used the scars on his upper body as a simple map to explain.

He danced with joy and said, "Your Majesty, look, if this is Jingchuan, then this place is exactly where General Li of Great Xia is stationed. There is a dangerous place here, which is especially suitable for an ambush..."

Yuan Ruan initially thought that the emperor was just giving face to his courtiers, but after a while, the emperor's expression was still very serious, and he even nodded or asked questions according to where the Minister of War pointed.

Yuanruan was surprised: [Brother, do you really want to fight? ]

System: [Your brother definitely wants to, he is very ambitious. But I am also a little curious.]

Yuanruan: [What?]

System: [How did the scar of the Minister of War grow? Does it coincide with the map of Jingchuan in Daxia? Look, your brother actually tapped on the other person's chest to make military arrangements. But seriously, wouldn't it hurt for a man to be poked like that? ! ]

Yuanruan: [hiss...]

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone became suddenly quiet except for the drunken Minister of War who was still beeping excitedly.

The emperor's outstretched hand also stopped suddenly.

After a while, the Minister of War was still trying to straighten his chest, pointing at his chest and saying, "Your Majesty, look here, this is what I'm talking about! It's easy to fight here."

The emperor's face darkened: "Shut up!"

The Minister of War was stunned, confusion showing on his red face.

While the Minister of War was quiet, the Minister of Revenue, not caring about his impoliteness in front of the palace, said loudly: "Your Majesty, the treasury is empty! We can't open up new battlefields in recent years."

The Minister of War looked at the aggressive Minister of Revenue, his red face turned pale, and he snorted twice: "Why, why is there no money? There are so many silver mines, so many coal mines..."

The Minister of Revenue glanced at his subordinate.

The doctor from the Ministry of Revenue came out and began to talk incessantly about the civil and military projects that Daxia had carried out this year.

The summary is two words: "No money!"

Whenever the officials from the Ministry of War stood up and said something, the officials from the Ministry of Revenue would take out their abacus and start calculating the accounts, forcing the officials from the Ministry of War who had stood up to sit back down.

This made Yuan Ruan look back again and again.

Yuanruan: [The Ministry of Revenue’s catchphrase, a two-part allegorical saying, really means “no money.”]

The system suddenly interrupted: [The Ministry of Revenue really has no money. Even the Eastern Palace is rotten, and the Minister of Revenue didn't approve the note. ]

The prince who was watching with a smile: ???

——When did the East Palace become rotten? When did it become impossible to repair it?!
