The capital is a melon field, I happily eat melons

When he was called out for dinner, Lin Mo stayed in his room and refused to come out.

"Second Miss, the master, the mistress, and the eldest young master and the eldest young lady are already waiting. If you don't come out, they will come here in person."

The maid at the door was particularly helpless. What was the point of hiding now that things had already happened? It would be better to come out openly. After all, she could just pretend to have amnesia when she was drunk.

Lin Mo buried his head in the quilt and sulked, "I won't eat anymore, go tell them I won't eat anymore!"

Why are you still eating? You're already full of anger.

Seeing her like this, the system advised her: [Hey, calm down, calm down, it's not a big deal, and I think what you did yesterday is not as embarrassing as sleeping on the floor in front of your parents' door.]

[Besides, you are very thick-skinned, why do you care so much? Isn't the purpose of life to live freely? Why do you seem to be uncomfortable now? ]

Lin Mo said speechlessly: "It's completely different for me to be embarrassed on my own initiative and to be embarrassed on my own initiative. I have to be mentally prepared. I know about sleeping on the floor in front of my parents' doorstep, but I don't know what happened after I got drunk. This feeling is completely different."

"Just let me take it easy on myself."

Minister Lin and the other three listened to the news brought by the maid, and the expression on each of their faces was extremely complicated, and even a little amusement.

Madam Lin coughed lightly and said, "Since she doesn't want to eat, then let's eat first. After all, skipping a meal won't kill her. If she's hungry, she'll take the initiative to find something to eat."

You're already this grown up, so there's no need for them to worry too much. You're not a child anymore.

While the Lin family was peaceful and quiet, Prince Xin's Mansion was now prosperous and completely different from usual.

Many officials sent gifts, and some even came in person, especially the military generals.

"Your Highness Prince Xin has finally been vindicated for all the years he has suffered. The Emperor has said that he will do his best to heal your injury. The imperial doctors are now trying to find a way to treat your injury."

"Yes, yes. The Prince of Qi's Mansion and the General Protector's Mansion have been raided. Countless amounts of gold, silver, and rare treasures have been found in their mansions. You can imagine how many bad things they have done over the years."

"The treasury is empty now, and the emperor can't even afford his own underwear. They have amassed so much wealth, enjoying their wealth and noble status without caring about the people of the world. They deserve to have their property confiscated!"

Prince Xin was still listening to these people's complaints, but as he listened he suddenly grasped a key point.

He quickly held down the adult's hand and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by saying that the emperor can't even make his own underwear?"

Prince Xin had never attended court and didn't know what happened there. His family members rarely went out, just like him, so they knew nothing about what happened in the capital and at court.

The adult looked around and saw that the people around him were all his people and also people who knew about Lin Mo's affairs, so he could just speak frankly.

"Before, the emperor kept complaining to us about being poor. We thought he was just pretending. After all, how could a ruler of a country be poor? Later, due to some things, we found out that even the emperor's underwear had holes in it."

"Doesn't he like to reward meritorious officials with plaques? We originally thought that this was the emperor's preference, and that the plaques could be passed down. But later, after some things happened, we found that the emperor had no other intention in rewarding plaques. He did it purely because he was poor and he couldn't afford other rewards."

The corners of Prince Xin's mouth twitched, and his impression of his royal brother was suddenly shattered.

So you are this kind of brother! You are really a hidden talent!

That gentleman also told Prince Xin all the recent events in the court, including the matter of Lin Mo and the system.

Prince Xin was so stunned when he heard this that he felt like they were telling a myth.

"Are you really serious about what you said? You even mentioned ghosts and gods. If ghosts and gods really exist, why are there so many people doing bad things? Aren't they afraid of retaliation?"

Prince Xin looked at these people with suspicion, wondering if there was anything wrong with their brains.

He is an official appointed by the imperial court, but he still believes in ghosts and gods. Have he read so many books by sages in vain?

The official felt heartbroken when he saw the look in Prince Xin's eyes.

"Oh, Your Majesty, that system is not a ghost or god, it is just a melon-eating system. The meaning of melon-eating is to watch people laugh at their jokes. Although Lin Mo is the daughter of Minister Lin, she is completely unambitious. Minister Lin was afraid that his daughter would starve to death, so he found an official position for her."

"Now this Lady Xiao Lin uses this system to gossip around the court every day. She also revealed the emperor's underwear, as well as the affairs of the Prince of Qi and the general who protects the country. Oh, and recently there was also a rumor about the assistant minister of the Ministry of War having an affair with his concubine."

Prince Xin: …Why do I feel like your life is so wonderful? Aren’t you supposed to go to court to discuss state affairs? Why do you still eat melons every day?

Prince Xin suddenly felt that his three views had suffered a severe shock.

"Your Highness, but you must keep this a secret from Lin Mo. She doesn't know that we can hear her true feelings yet. I told the prince in advance because I was afraid that he would let it slip when he went to court. If he really let it slip, then we wouldn't be able to hear so many interesting things."

"Recently, because the Qi Wang Mansion and the Protectorate General's Mansion were raided, the national treasury was filled up. We are so rich now! If there are any corrupt officials in the future, we can just send this Xiao Lin lady out and let her eat melons on the spot. In this way, we can listen to the good show and punish the corrupt officials, and the national treasury can also add a sum of money. This is simply killing three birds with one stone!"

The more these officials talked about it, the more excited they became, as if they had seen the days in the future when they would have endless money to spend.

They have been very stingy with their money over the past few decades! They have no money for anything, and the emperor complains to them about being poor every day. I thought the emperor was just pretending, but I didn't expect that he was even poorer than them.

This time, it was a rare experience of what it felt like to be rich. The first people to experience it were the military generals. The emperor directly allocated a sum of money to the army. No matter what, the army must not be treated unfairly, and military pay must not be cut off!

Prince Xin looked at these people with shining eyes and felt complicated inside, but he was still very happy in his heart. This should be regarded as God's blessing to his dynasty.

He is a coward. He has been hiding for so many years because he is afraid of harming his wife and children, avoiding the edge of King Qi. He has no maternal family and no backing, so he can only rely on himself.

But now, the Prince Qi’s Palace has been uprooted, and his light has finally come!
