The chancellor of the capital city once again sent the letter to Concubine De. Concubine De didn't want to get involved in this mess again, but she didn't expect that the eunuch beside the emperor would find her directly.

"Your Majesty," the chief eunuch saluted, "Your Majesty means the more the better."

Concubine De was stunned. Could it be that Master Zhou really had some skills?

Thinking of this, Concubine De looked at her father's letter again. After taking a closer look, Concubine De looked up in shock and asked, "This person, this person once saved Your Majesty?"

The chief eunuch looked up in surprise: "How could this happen!" His expression instantly became serious, "Your Majesty, this person must be treated well."

Concubine De seemed to be thinking about something. She had complicated feelings towards the Ninth Princess. She did not dare to offend the destiny of the Xia Kingdom, but she also wanted to vent her anger for Wu'er who had suffered a setback.

However, after recommending Master Zhou, there was no news for a long time, and Concubine De thought it was a failure. But now seeing the attitude of the eunuch, she feels that her previous idea may have a chance.

Concubine De quickly smiled and said, "Thank you for your reminder, Chunlan, remember to see you off."

Chunlan responded quickly and secretly gave the eunuch some gold coins.

Defei simply put on her makeup, read the letter written by Master Wen carefully three times, and then went straight to the Yangxin Palace with great interest.

At this time, a small court meeting was being held in the Yangxin Palace.

The chief eunuch went in to pass the message, and Concubine De waited outside awaiting news from the Emperor.

She could vaguely hear the roars coming from inside.

Prime Minister Li and Prime Minister Wang were arguing fiercely over how to manage the princes of Daxia.

Prime Minister Wang is a staunch conservative. He believes that Daxia is surrounded by enemies on all sides and that the power of the foreign king must not be weakened easily, otherwise the other four countries may take advantage of the situation and lead to the demise of Daxia.

Prime Minister Li was a radical reformer. He believed that if no measures were taken against the princes, there would be no need for other countries to attack, and Daxia would soon fall into disaster and bring about its own destruction.

Defei yawned without interest. She had been waiting for a long time, but she was not impatient at all. She even felt a little secretly happy.

"Greetings, Her Majesty the Defei." A gentle voice of a palace maid suddenly came from the side.

[Wow. The tip of Concubine De's nose is red from the cold. Why did you leave her out? Did you forget?]

Defei frowned. What did you forget? His Majesty didn't drive her away when he was discussing state affairs. He trusted her.

Just at this moment, the door of the Hall of Mental Cultivation was opened.

The chief eunuch stepped out and said to Yuan Ruan in a flattering tone, "Greetings, little imperial teacher. His Majesty is waiting for you."

The palace maid bowed slightly to Concubine De again and walked inside carrying Yuanruan.

Seeing this, Concubine De was surprised and asked, "What about me?"

"Empress Defei, why don't you go to the side hall to rest first?" the eunuch suggested gently.

Concubine De frowned slightly and said, "Since you have informed His Majesty, I will wait here for His Majesty to summon me."

"This, this... Your Majesty, hey, let me tell you the truth." The eunuch lowered his voice with some embarrassment, "After I brought the letter in, I have passed it on for Your Majesty three times, but Prime Minister Li and Prime Minister Wang were arguing so fiercely that they were about to fight. Your Majesty was so annoyed that she just said she knew it every time and asked Your Majesty to wait. This... Seeing that the young imperial teacher is here, the matter will definitely take a long time to discuss..."

Concubine De's gentle expression became a little uncomfortable, and she asked, "So... Your Majesty has forgotten me?"

"How can that be possible? Your Majesty is busy with state affairs." The chief eunuch smiled and practiced Tai Chi skillfully. "Besides, I am afraid that the chaotic scene inside will hurt Your Majesty. Your Majesty should also be more considerate of Your Majesty."

When Concubine De thought of the Ninth Princess entering unimpeded, she couldn't hold back her smile. But in the end, she just said, "Thank you, eunuch," and then walked towards the side hall in a menacing manner.

At the same time, Yuan Ruan was held in the arms of the emperor who stood up and walked over.

Prime Minister Li straightened his hair that was messed up by Prime Minister Wang, and walked forward to compliment him, "The Ninth Princess looks much taller today, and her figure is round and plump, so lovely."

Yuanruan: [Hiss, he said I was fat? Have I eaten too much recently? ]

System: [My Ah Ruan is so elegant, how could she be fat? He must have seen it wrong! ]

Prime Minister Li's flattering smile froze on his face.

Prime Minister Wang glanced at him and stepped forward and said, "The jadeite that the Ninth Princess is wearing today is not big enough. I just happened to bring a new headdress with me. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I'll give it to the little princess."

Yuan Ruan: [Oh my god! What a great treasure Prime Minister Wang has! This jade is big and plump! Good! Very good! Very good! ]

Prime Minister Wang looked at Prime Minister Li with a somewhat smug expression, his face clearly showing "I am the best at pleasing others and doing what they like."

However, Prime Minister Li looked at the other person with a look that said, "Let's see how long you can be so proud."

System: [Aruan, you forgot that Prime Minister Li also gave you a large jade bead some time ago. You liked to wear it every day, but when you shaved your hair a few days ago, you found two rows of scars on the top of your head. If you don't know, you would think you became a monk and got burned by nine Prajna beads.]

Prime Minister Wang’s smile froze slightly.

Prime Minister Li patted his long sleeves leisurely, thinking that there must be a reason why he did not please the emperor.

The emperor looked at his two prime ministers speechlessly. They were fighting for the fiefdoms of the princes just a second ago, but now they were competing with each other to please the little princess.

The style of the painting changed so quickly that the emperor was speechless for a moment.

At this time, the emperor noticed the little princess's excited limbs and her eyes staring at the big jadeite. The emperor said helplessly: "Don't wear it on your head." After a pause, the emperor waved to the eunuch.

The chief eunuch came over holding a fat panda cub carved from mutton-fat jade. The emperor said, "Put the jadeite bead curtain on this iron-eating beast. The jade will keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Ah Ruan can hold it while you sleep."

Yuanruan: [Ahhh! Big brother is awesome! It’s worth it!]

System: [As expected of the emperor! The most generous.]

Prime Minister Li and Prime Minister Wang looked at the emperor at the same time, muttering in their hearts: Your Majesty has no martial ethics! He has already become the father of the small country, why is he giving away treasures to improve his favorability! Can't he just give them some soup? !

At this time, the palace maids and eunuchs came forward one by one, carrying delicious food from Da Xia and placing it on the table.

The palace maid who served Yuanruan was taken away by the eunuch. The emperor held Yuanruan in his arms and fed her a mouthful of soft and tender vegetable rice porridge, but soon the bowl was snatched away by Yuanruan's two little hands.

Yuanruan almost buried his face in the bowl: [The most high-end dishes often only require the simplest ingredients! Delicious and fragrant! ]

System: [Ahhh! It's delicious. It's great to start sharing taste. ]

The emperor smiled and helped Yuanruan hold the bowl.

Yuan Ruan: [Strange, didn't Big Brother say that today is a family dinner? Why don't I see any concubines, princes, or princesses? Are they just some court officials? ]

System: [I don't know. Are court officials also considered members of the emperor's harem?]

Prime Minister Li and Prime Minister Wang almost sprained their waists, and they roared in their hearts: System! Is your artifact contaminated? ! What are you talking about!

The emperor held his forehead with his hand. Perhaps because of his many experiences, he had become calm about the system.

The emperor waved implicitly to the prince who was waiting in the side hall.

The prince took a deep breath, concealed the smile on his face, and then pretended to have just arrived at the palace and trotted over.

The prince said loudly, "Father, I am late. You have been very tired recently. I thought that Master Wen had cured your back pain, so I specially invited him to use his best medicine to treat your body. He is waiting outside now."

Prime Minister Li understood what he meant and said, "Master Wen came in person? I have also been cured of migraines before."

Prime Minister Wang glanced at the three people and praised them, "Your Highness is thoughtful. This person is indeed talented and knowledgeable."

The emperor saw Yuan Ruan looked up with interest, and he looked at everyone with satisfaction. Yes, everyone's ability to play supporting roles has become stronger. Next, it depends on whether Master Wen is pleasing to Jiuer and whether he is useful.
