The court is quiet, the melon people are making trouble!

Xu Qingqing sighed:

[That’s right! Being an emperor is not an easy job. You have to get up earlier than the chickens and sleep later than the dogs every day!]

The emperor's rage subsided a little:

It is true that what Miss Xu said was unpleasant to the ear, but honest advice may be unpleasant to the ear but is beneficial to one’s conduct!

[I get up before dawn and watch a bunch of people quarreling. From time to time, someone comes to make suggestions, and from time to time, someone comes to make a death remonstrance. Only the emperor doesn't get grumpy when he wakes up. If it were me, I would have a headache every day! ]

The emperor nodded inwardly, pouring out his grievances:

My niece really understands me! It's not that I don't have a bad temper when I wake up, it's that I can't have a bad temper when I wake up! How many heads will be lost in one day? Who will handle the affairs in the court?

My father said that I must protect the empire that he and my mother fought so hard to build. I want to be a wise ruler!

Mrs. Xu's eyes went blank, and her nails dug into her flesh:

It’s over, it’s over, the Emperor’s Nine Clans Match 3 is coming to my house!

"Someone is coming!"

The emperor's voice became higher, and Madam Xu felt as if she had experienced the Golden Bell Cover again. She was already planning how to use the Red Book and Iron Certificate!

"Give Miss Xu a seat!"

It's over! It's over! She's going to be executed! My precious daughter is going to die before she can even enjoy happiness! Xu Xiaodan, I want to divorce you!

Xu Qingyao's pale face began to turn red, and she slowly approached her mother:

"Mother, please sit down!"

Oh! Yaoer, why did you tell me again? I'm going to give you a death sentence, right? I heard...

Madam Xu opened her eyes and lowered her voice:

"Not a death sentence?"

"Ok!"

Oh my! My body is full of strength all of a sudden. I can climb up to Ci'en Temple in one breath without any pain in my legs!

[Oh my! I was shocked. Does the emperor have to shout so loudly when he gives someone a seat? Isn’t it always the eunuchs who convey the message?]

The emperor watched Xu Qingqing sit down with a smile, then glanced at Eunuch Fu beside him. Only then did Eunuch Fu come to his senses and announce that the dishes were to be served!

Xu Qingqing was still looking at the three people on the podium:

[Your Majesty is so blessed!]

Who doesn't like to be praised for being blessed? So the emperor's mouth curled up again.

[Look at the queen, she is quiet and elegant, and well-mannered. She is like an orchid in a valley, and makes people fall in love with her at first sight.]

The queen smiled faintly: This girl not only knows how to hit the emperor's weak spot, but also knows how to hit her own!

[Look at Consort De again, holding the Buddhist beads, she is like a red plum blossom in the snow, cool and elegant, making people unforgettable! ]

The Buddhist beads in Defei's hand moved inexplicably faster.

[Your Majesty, do you know what envy, jealousy and hatred mean?]

The emperor was very proud, but his eldest niece said:

[So, why does the emperor like to sleep alone? ]

The emperor blushed and said, "I just like being alone, so what? Who said I can't sleep alone? My wife understands, so why don't you understand?"

While eating and watching the show, Xu Zhiyuan, the male guest, took Xu Zishen to toast everywhere:

"Master Zhao, have a drink, have a drink!"

"Why is Lord Xu so enthusiastic?"

"Oh! My little daughter just came back. If I encounter this in the future, I hope Lord Zhao will bear with me!"

"Ah? To take care of you?"

Lord Xu smiled and said nothing, and hurried to the next place. Xu Zishen followed reluctantly and spoke to him during the toast:

"Do we need to do this?"

Xu Zhiyuan took the time to glance at him:

"No need, please go back! I'll let Qingqing go to the Ministry of Industry. There's not much money there, but there's less work!"

Xu Zishen joined the toasting without saying a word:

"Yes! My niece, Lord Liu, please take care of her!"

Several ministers who were at odds with the two men gathered together and started gossiping:

"Look at how cocky he is, as if he is someone who doesn't have a daughter!"

"It's nothing, isn't it just that his family has a princess? He has a sullen face every day, as if someone owes him eight hundred dollars!"

The others were silent. Although they were political enemies, they had eyes! The man spoke angrily:

"Even if he's not sulking, he's still a smiling tiger, with one evil mind after another. The Minister of Rites has become the emperor's lackey!"

"That's right. There's nothing wrong with that. And Xu Zishen, he is the Minister of Justice after all, but he left when Xu Zhiyuan called him. He doesn't have the grace of a Minister of Justice at all!"

"They are the real bad friends, look at him. Yes! My niece, please take care of her~"

"Hahahaha(?w?)hiahiahia..."

After hearing this, Xu Zhiyuan and Xu Zishen toasted and chatted:

The power of his daughter/niece will be revealed tomorrow. I hope everyone won’t cry then!

Halfway through the banquet, Eunuch Fu signaled everyone to be quiet. He brought a set of clothes to Xu Qingqing, and the emperor sat on it and asked with a smile:

"Xu Qingqing, I heard that young girls like light crimson. Do you like this color?"

Xu Qingqing's mouth is faster than his brain:

"It's too eye-catching, I don't like it!"

The originally quiet scene suddenly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, especially Mrs. Xu's cough which was particularly harsh.

[What are you doing! He asked me and I answered him. What did I do wrong? I can’t even tell the truth, right?]

The Queen rarely changed her expression:

Didn’t you hear that it was the emperor who chose it?

The eldest princess beside her took a breath and glanced at her.

Xu Qingqing was reluctant:

"Your Majesty, what I said is: it's too dazzling, it's hard not to like it! The wind is strong today, it blew away my words!"

The emperor's mouth twitched:

"Since you like it, I will give it to you!"

Xu Qingqing:

???

You really think the wind will blow away everything I said!

"I hope you'll wear it when you go to court tomorrow."

Xu Qingqing took the rose-red clothes with disdain and answered casually:

"I've made note of this!"

"You can't be a commoner girl. If you wear official uniform, you are a lowly official!"

Xu Qingqing's hands shook as she took the clothes, and her rose-red hat and rose-red robe fell down. If the eunuch beside Eunuch Fu hadn't been quick to catch them, how could the imperially bestowed clothes have been stuck with dust under the emperor's nose!

[What does it mean? What official uniform? Where is it from? Whose official uniform? Why is it an official uniform? How can I have an official uniform? How can a woman like me have an official uniform?]

[Official uniform given by the emperor? Why did the emperor give me the official uniform? What did the emperor give me the official uniform for? Is there something wrong with the emperor's brain?]

The colorful ladies below looked at Xu Qingqing's colorful face, and then saw the emperor's face also turned colorful:

What happened? It's so magical? The emperor personally granted her an official position? And it was a woman? Why haven't I heard of this before? How did my husband/father become an official? Why didn't you remind me of this good thing?

Xu Qingqing covered her stomach with her hands and said in a fragile tone:

"Your Majesty, I have a heart disease! I am only fit to sell sweet potatoes, not to rule for the people!"

The emperor simply couldn't bear to watch:

This father and daughter, one of them is holding his heart with a stomachache. The other is holding his stomach with a heartache. If anyone says they are not relatives, I will definitely spank them!

The emperor opened his mouth and gave instructions:

"wrong!"

Xu Qingqing was at a loss:

"what?"

"Wrong cover!"

"Oh oh oh oh!"

Xu Qingqing quietly moved her hand upwards:

"Oh! This heartache, it's all drooping!"
