The little princess' mind was read, and the court and harem were eating melons

After hearing what the system said, Li Qingyi and the emperor were silent.

Li Qingyi was silent with some emotion. After all kinds of thoughts went around in his mind, he finally settled on one: Is this the power of the world of novels? I was scared.

The emperor felt that this scene was inexplicably familiar, and even began to doubt himself the moment he heard what the system said.

However, although the information previously obtained from the system was eventually confirmed to be authentic and accurate, the emperor did not develop blind trust in the system.

He will eventually ask someone to verify this news.

As for whether other people would believe whatever the system says...if there really are such fools, the emperor would consider giving them another position.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the emperor questioned what the system said.

However, because this scene was too familiar, as if something similar had happened not long ago, the emperor was not questioning the system content itself, but...

The emperor’s inner thoughts: Why do my officials have so many spies?

Don’t say that Chen Jiezhi is not a spy. The system has laid so much groundwork before. Doesn’t it just mean that Chen Jiezhi can do whatever he wants with his cousin?

The emperor was confused.

The emperor was very angry.

The emperor began to wonder whether his father, who was training the Qingyi Guards even though the national treasury was extremely poor, had anticipated this situation?

Li Qingyi accepted it well. After all, not to mention that she already knew that this was a world derived from novels, even if it wasn't... there is a saying that goes, novels are based on reality, and the bloody and complicated situations in reality are sometimes much more exaggerated and bizarre than those in novels.

Most novels have logic, but reality sometimes has no logic at all.

Li Qingyi: Normal!

Li Qingyi even felt a little sympathy for his own father. First, there was a spy who replaced an official's identity and entered the court to serve as an official. Later, there were spies lurking in the backyards of officials to obtain information. Who knows what kind of spies will be hiding where in the future.

However, she then thought about what she had seen in the news, that a certain country had sent 20,000 people to hide in Li Qingyi's home country to conduct espionage activities. Compared with the two people who had just been arrested, she felt... not so bad?

The father and daughter each had their own ideas, but the system did not stop and continued to talk about Chen Jiezhi and the spy concubine.

System: [… Chen Jiezhi, as a censor, is affiliated with the Metropolitan Censorate, responsible for supervising all officials and correcting malpractices. In terms of official position, he should be the eyes and ears of the emperor. However, as for the group of censors, according to various statistics, many censors will make trouble for the sake of "performance". Another part will become the gossip of powerful officials or certain factions. Anyway, there are all kinds of people, and few of them really perform their duties conscientiously. ]

【Chen Jiezhi is now considered a member of the Third Prince's faction, but when he first became the Imperial Censor, judging from his various behaviors, he seemed to have wanted to be a good Imperial Censor who was upright and dedicated to the public. However, because Chen Jiezhi was too upright at the time, he offended his father, who was still the Concubine Shu at the time. On the surface, no one could do anything to him, but in secret, they made many things difficult for him. Once, Chen Jiezhi Mu Xiu accompanied his wife and daughter out, and he almost died outside. It was the Third Prince's brother-in-law who happened to pass by and saved him.】

[Later, Chen Jiezhi gradually became a member of the Third Prince's faction. However, the Crown Prince's position was stable, and no matter what the other princes thought in their hearts, they had no intention of competing for the throne. Therefore, the Third Prince never competed with the Crown Prince head-on. After entering the court, he behaved like an official with a special status.]

Li Qingyi: [The person who got into trouble this time was the one who saved Chen Jiezhi? ]

System: [Yes, Chen Jiezhi already owed someone a life-saving favor, and she also had a beloved cousin behind the scenes, so the emperor or the crown prince would not normally send someone to prison just because of an impeachment letter, but Chen Jiezhi did.]

The system said this, and the emotion in its baby voice was very obvious: [Honestly, host, your father and your brother are both decent people. ]

Li Qingyi: [Isn't it good to be decent? ]

System: [Okay, who doesn’t like decent people? But if they are too decent and gentle, they will be easily manipulated. Look, no one dared to be so reckless as Qin Shi Huang! ]

Li Qingyi: [……]

This is a very good example, don’t give it next time.

It’s not that Qin Shi Huang was a bad person. On the contrary, Li Qingyi still admired and respected him very much. But if her father became like Qin Shi Huang, Li Qingyi felt that she would not dare to get close to her father, let alone an official.

Throughout thousands of years of history, there are relatively few ancestors as powerful as Qin Shihuang.

The emperor, who was described as gentle, seemed to be thinking about something.

The system then went on to talk about Chen Jiezhi.

System: [There is more to this gossip than this. Although the owner of this gossip is Chen Jiezhi, the protagonist should be the concubine.]

System: [It is currently known that the concubine is a spy, lurking beside Chen Jiezhi in order to obtain Daning's secrets. However, Chen Jiezhi is now an imperial censor. Although she has joined the Third Prince's camp and has a backer, the Third Prince and others need someone to have their own people and influence in the Censorate, so Chen Jiezhi will not be transferred in the short term.]

System: [The censors are responsible for monitoring all officials, so it would not be strange for them to stare at other officials. However, if they stare at confidential information involving other officials, they will definitely find something wrong. Chen Jie knows that she is not that stupid, so the concubine naturally needs other channels to obtain information.]

System: [Host, guess what channel she used? ]

Li Qingyi: [Generally speaking, Madam diplomacy is also a way to obtain intelligence, but you also said before that the Chen family still relies on Madam Chen to deal with the outside world. Unless Madam Chen is controlled by the concubine and she answers whatever people ask, she is definitely not qualified for Madam diplomacy.]

Li Qingyi: [As for other channels... I can’t think of any for now. ]

The system made a soft snap in Li Qingyi's mind, like clapping hands, or a simulated sound, and then said in a very subtle tone: [She used the beauty trap to cuckold Chen Jiezhi more than a dozen times, and also made each mistress think that she was the only mistress.]

Li Qingyi:! ?

emperor:……?

Li Qingyi: [How many? ]

System: [Strictly speaking, there are thirteen. There is one person who can be counted as half, because he only stole once and got some useless information. Later, that person was demoted and exiled, so he was naturally deleted from her list of honey traps.]

Li Qingyi was amazed: [So, she has maintained relationships with more than a dozen mistresses? ]

Who is this?
