Quick Transmigration: A money-loving man meets a boy who gives away money!
Chapter 320: Greedy and Corrupt Prime Minister vs. Tyrannical Emperor (31)
After the court session, Yu Ci was left alone again. Eunuch Gou led the way to a familiar pavilion.
"See Your Majesty!"
Li Xuan Ge was sitting in the pavilion. There were various cakes and snacks on the table. She waved her hand and Eunuch Gou left.
"Come and sit down."
Yu Ci curled her lips, came to the pavilion, found a stool and sat down. In front of her were nine plates of cakes made by the imperial chef, in different shapes and colors, and they looked delicious. Although she was a little greedy, she still asked, "What instructions does Your Majesty have?"
"You always blame me for not paying for meals, so please come back and apologize to Minister Xiao Yu." Li Xuange picked up the teacup and took a sip, then picked up a piece of hibiscus cake with his fingertips.
"Okay then." Yu Ci was not polite. After all, the food was made by the imperial chefs in the palace and could not be eaten outside. She didn't know much about pastries, so she thought they were better made by others.
She picked up a piece and stuffed it into her mouth, eating while drinking tea.
Damn early morning court, I have to get up at five every day, and have breakfast on the bumpy carriage. I can’t eat or sleep well. Being an official is really not something that ordinary people can endure.
After she had eaten three or five pieces to fill her stomach, she finally had time to sip the imperial tea that was offered as tribute. The aftertaste was sweet and mellow, and it was extraordinary, worthy of being a tribute.
This reminded her that there seemed to be a few tea cakes at the bottom of the box in her cheap father's storehouse, with the word "tribute" sealed on them. Could they also be tributes?
Just thinking about this, she felt that Yu Hong really deserved to die.
Across the table, Li Xuan Ge watched her eat happily, holding the teapot in his hand and adding tea to her cup from time to time.
She is twenty-seven years old this year, and her younger brother Yu Xiang is only eighteen, with an age difference of nine years. Thinking of this, her gaze towards Yu Ci couldn't help but soften.
Li Xuange originally had an elder brother named Li Xuanqing, who was the crown prince of the time and nine years older than her. If he had not passed away, both her mother and she would have lived a good life.
Unfortunately, his brother passed away when he was eighteen. The person who killed him was the imperial concubine who used her beauty to gain power, but Li Xuange knew that it was the emperor who really killed him.
The emperor was in the prime of his life, thirty-nine years old, at the peak of his grasp and desire for power, while his son was eighteen years old, a graceful gentleman, praised by his ministers, and decisive in his actions, and was regarded as having the style of Emperor Taizu.
Who could have thought that such an emperor who was not good at maintaining stability and who came to power by luck would be afraid of his own children.
Of course, it also has something to do with the fact that my mother's family is a military family...
The rest of the story is too confusing. Her mother left her when she was eleven years old.
She could only save herself by relying on her uncle's family and gradually increasing her fame and power.
Tsk, who would still remember the Ninth Princess Fengming who was famous in Shengjing at the age of sixteen?
The only one left in this world is the tyrant Li Xuange.
As she thought about the past, a trace of cold struggle emerged in her eyes, as if she had fallen into ice and was trying to save herself, in so much pain that she couldn't even moan.
Yu Ci was enjoying her meal. Seeing the man opposite her with a puzzled look on his face, she waved forward and asked, "Are you okay?"
Ever since she knew that Li Xuange was a "little thief" who liked to sneak into other people's homes in the middle of the night, Yu Ci's fear of her was slightly reduced.
Of course, the main reason is the improvement of her cultivation. The strong personal strength can bring her full confidence and courage.
Even if Li Xuange wanted to kill her at this moment, Yu Ci had a way to escape.
"It's okay." Li Xuange took back the teapot, leaving a circle of water stains on the table, almost soaking Yu Ci's sleeves.
She looked at the water stains, flipped her palm, and swept it. The tea immediately turned into splashing rain darts and flew dozens of meters away.
Yu Ci couldn't help but laugh. His Majesty, the Emperor, actually used martial arts to do such a trivial thing. "Do you often use martial arts like this?"
Li Xuange glanced at her calmly and said, "I am afraid of getting involved with my beloved."
Yu Ci shut up. This guy always told jokes with a serious face. It was boring to talk to her. It didn't arouse any emotions and only made her unhappy.
"What's the matter? I don't believe that our Majesty would be so bored that he would look for me just to have a meal of cakes." Yu Ci picked up another piece of butter cake, took a bite, and a black sesame seed stained the corner of her lips, which looked a little eye-catching on her well-behaved face.
Like a naughty mole.
Li Xuange looked at it again and again, and finally pointed at his chin to signal Yu Ci, "Sesame..."
Yu Ci followed her instructions and mirrored the movements, touching the other side.
"No."
Seeing that she had made the wrong move, Li Xuange smiled slightly and guided her to move her hand to the right, "Half an inch to the right."
Yu Ci poked her cheek and poked her dimple. She immediately realized that no matter how much she ate, she would never eat this side. This person was clearly teasing her, "You!"
But when she thought of her identity, she endured it.
Li Xuange then said leisurely: "Rebellion."
Yu Ci raised her hand and touched a sesame seed, then stuffed it into her mouth. "Your Majesty always likes to play tricks on people."
"I am an emperor, and I am also a human being..." Li Xuange raised his eyebrows slightly and poured himself a cup of tea.
Yu Ci was stunned. Yes, this guy liked to attack at night and also liked to eat without paying. He was even more naughty than ordinary people.
"I would like to let you handle the matter of transporting grain to the north. I will give you an imperial decree in secret, allowing you to execute first and report later." After pouring a cup of tea, he returned to being the emperor who never expressed his emotions and started talking about business.
Yu Ci put down the cup and placed it on the table, even though her expression changed faster than hers.
"Row."
It seems that they want to clear the line from Shengjing to Beicheng...
Or was it a secret decree, to execute first and report later? Wouldn't she be the one to bear all the blame?
Even though she only worked for three years, she couldn't be treated like a slave, right?!
Yu Ci gritted her teeth secretly.
Humph, then His Majesty the Emperor must tolerate this treacherous minister!
"Hmm?" Li Xuange just said "OK" and looked at her with a half-smile.
Yu Ci curled her lips in silence, "I accept your order~Long live the emperor~"
"Don't ruin your reputation too badly." She reminded Yu Ci, otherwise it would be difficult to clear her name in the future. She would be completely infamous...
Yu Ci didn't understand this point. Besides, the time had come, so who would care whether he was a white-collar worker or not? He just became a bandit and lived a free life in the world.
"Don't worry~!"
I guarantee you’ll be infamous forever!
