I rely on gossip to save the country

The official next to Xie Chuyue breathed a sigh of relief. He was almost hit to death by the little princess. Fortunately, he dodged quickly and avoided the risk of being hit.

After Xie Chuyue stood up, she was still confused. [Well, what's going on? Why are you all kneeling and looking at me? ]

System: [Warm reminder to the host, you just fell asleep. ]

The prince couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he suppressed his laughter and said, "Royal sister, you must not doze off during court."

Xie Chuyue was still confused, but nodded.

Xie Yunqi walked back to his original seat only after seeing his royal sister nod.

Xie Chuyue: [** (System) Because I just fell asleep and slept too soundly, that’s why I fell to the ground? ]

System: [No, host, it was the prince who came to call you and poked your arm, and you fell to the ground in response.]

Xie Chuyue: [The prince wants to harm me? ]

system:【………….】

The prince was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Xie Chuyue: [If he didn't want to hurt me, would he have used such force to knock me to the ground? ]

The prince looked at Emperor Mingde, feeling that he had been wronged. He hoped that his father would not believe what his sister said. He had just poked her innocently.

Everyone: The prince is not stupid. He would not harm you in front of the emperor.

Old Master Su smiled with such kindness on his face, how come his precious granddaughter was so adorable?

The emperor was speechless. Didn't the prince see whether he had done anything? Xiao Yue'er's ability to lie with her eyes open had improved.

Xie Chuyue, who was in a daze, asked the system: [How far have we reached in the court session? Why are they all silent? ]

System: [They just finished their audience with the Emperor. The Emperor saw that you were still asleep, so he asked the Crown Prince to wake you up. It is your turn to attend the audience.]

Xie Chuyue: [So I just went to court. I didn’t sleep for long either.]

"Your Majesty, your son, pays homage to your father. Long live your father! Long live your Majesty!"

The emperor looked at this terrible thing of his and felt both angry and amused, but there was nothing he could do.

"Everyone is safe!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Xie Chuyue stood up, she stood in her seat again and began to sway left and right.

Xie Chuyue: [I really can't attend this morning court. I'm so sleepy. Damn it, do I have to attend this morning court? ]

Everyone: They got up early and went to bed late, but nothing was said. This little princess could sleep when she wanted to during court, and play when she wanted to. It was so good, yet she was still not satisfied. She was the first one to complain.

And His Majesty the Emperor gloated over his misfortune: You have brought this upon yourself, this is all your own fault, even if you are not happy about it you still have to come to court.

Even though he was having fun and making noise, His Majesty the Emperor still didn't forget his business.

"My dear ministers, do you have anything else to report?" The majestic voice of Emperor Mingde sounded slowly above the Golden Throne Hall.

Prime Minister Duan Yi stepped out and saluted the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, I have something to report!"

Emperor Mingde looked at him and asked, "Oh? What do you want to report, Lord Duan? Please speak frankly."

"Your Majesty..." Duan Yi said solemnly, "Your Majesty, my daughter went on an outing yesterday, but was robbed by bandits on the way. These bandits are too rampant. They don't even take the royal family seriously and dare to commit crimes on the official road. I beg Your Majesty to send troops to wipe out these bandits."

Many officials whose children were injured stood up and echoed, "I second your opinion. Your Majesty, the bandits are rampant. They injured the children of various families and even robbed them of the money they carried with them."

"Well, I already know about this matter. Do you have any good ideas, my dear ministers?" The emperor indifferently kicked the matter back to them.

Not only did he know that, he also knew that it was his own daughter who had robbed their children of their money. If he blamed everything on the bandits, then those bandits would have died unjustly.

Everyone: We must say that their Emperor is really treacherous. They were waiting for him to send troops, but he just threw the problem to them.

"Your Majesty, I and your subjects second this motion. We need to conduct a thorough investigation into this matter!"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the troops to suppress the bandits. I hope Your Majesty will grant my wish!"

Just when everyone was in a tense atmosphere, Xie Chuyue stepped out and said, "Father, I want to impeach the Minister of Personnel."

"Oh, you impeached Lord Lu? What did you impeach?" The emperor was puzzled. How did Lord Lu offend his daughter?

"I accuse Lord Lu of having a bad family tradition and a poor way of educating his children. He indulges his legitimate son and daughter in bullying and beating his illegitimate son. His legitimate son took the illegitimate son's place in Tsinghua Academy. His legitimate son and daughter also let the illegitimate son pass under their crotch. I also saw Lord Lu abusing the illegitimate son, giving him dirty water to drink, rotten rice to eat, and tattered clothes to wear. He oppressed the illegitimate son."

Xie Chuyue spoke quickly and told everything she had seen that day, like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

After Xie Chuyue finished speaking, she complained in her heart: [This Minister of Personnel is also stupid. Your legitimate son is a waste, while your illegitimate son has a promising future. However, you indulge your legitimate son to bully your illegitimate son. Your illegitimate son will achieve great things in the future. You can just wait to regret it.]

After listening to what Xie Chuyue said, the eyes of all the civil and military officials looking at the Minister of Personnel changed. This was too much. It was right to pay attention to the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, but to abuse and suppress illegitimate children like this was too much.

Moreover, the little princess has the ability to predict the future. According to her, since the legitimate son has been spoiled, then the illegitimate son should be raised. The illegitimate son will have to be relied on in the future. This Minister of Personnel is really old and confused and can't tell the difference between the important and the unimportant.

The Minister of Personnel almost vomited blood. How could he abuse his illegitimate son?

Emperor Mingde narrowed his eyes and looked at the Minister of Personnel with unfriendly eyes.

When the Minister of Personnel saw this, his legs went weak and he fell to his knees, "Your Majesty, I am innocent. I will sue the little princess for defamation."

Xie Chuyue was furious: [What? I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be slanderous? ]

"I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be false? Minister of Personnel, do you want me to tell you more details?"

The Minister of Personnel was so angry that his face turned red. "Princess, that was just a joke between children. It doesn't count."

Xie Chuyue was speechless and almost died of anger, "Whose 17 or 18-year-old son is still a child?"

Everyone: Seventeen or eighteen years old is enough to get married and start a career. This Minister of Personnel is too ridiculous. Seventeen or eighteen years old is still called a child. Then what do they call the six or seven-year-old children in their family?

The Minister of Personnel wanted to say something else, "Your Majesty......"

The Minister of Personnel was about to speak, but was interrupted by the Minister of Revenue who suddenly stood up, "Your Majesty, I also want to impeach the Minister of Personnel for allowing the legitimate son to insult the little princess."

The Minister of Personnel was now anxious. He didn't have any such intention. Don't slander him. "Your Majesty, I ......"

"Shut up and let the Minister of Revenue finish speaking first!" Emperor Mingde roared. Other things might be trivial matters, but bullying her little princess was not a trivial matter.

"Minister of Revenue, please tell me more details."

"Yes!" The Minister of Revenue responded and continued, "Yesterday, during the outing, the Minister of Personnel's legitimate son, Lu Anchen, insulted the little princess. His insults were so filthy that I was too ashamed to speak. My son tried to dissuade him to no avail. The Minister of Personnel's legitimate son wanted to scold even more fiercely, so my son finally taught his son a lesson."

This time the emperor was completely furious and said "good" three times in a row, "good, good, good, good, what a good minister of personnel, look at the good son you have taught."

"Come here, pass down the order. Lu Anchen, the legitimate son of the Minister of Personnel, will be caned fifty times and taken to the military camp as a soldier. The Minister of Personnel failed to educate his son properly, so he will be caned thirty times, fined one year's salary, and demoted to the position of Vice Minister of Personnel."
