Mind Reading: The tyrant panicked after hearing the little princess's inner voice
Chapter 7: Poor Little Heroine
Soon, General Lei was summoned into the imperial study.
However, ministers had to take off their armor when entering the imperial study and were not allowed to carry any weapons.
The secret guards were already lying in ambush in the blind spots all around. If Lei Ning made a mistake or said a wrong word, he would suffer the same fate as in the original book.
Fortunately, the current emperor gave him a chance to prove himself.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be well and dignified."
The emperor asked him to stand up.
"Lord Lei, I have decided to hand over the matter of the Jinwu Guard to someone else. I will not trouble you any more."
The emperor was waiting for his rebuttal. The position of Jinwuwei General was such an important post that it directly controlled the lifeline of the capital. How could he let go of a military general with rebellious intentions?
Sure enough, General Lei frowned in embarrassment: "But..."
The emperor was a little disappointed. It seemed that the little princess's predictive ability was not accurate.
He really hoped that Lei Ning would be a loyal and capable general. After all, his abilities were beyond doubt.
The emperor raised his hand slightly, and the secret guards in the corner were ready to strike.
"But I feel uneasy when I have no work to do~"
Emperor: Ah?
The emperor suddenly put his hand back, and one of the secret guards who almost rushed out braked too suddenly and lost his balance.
He almost rolled down from the beam and was grabbed by his companion by the corner of his clothes.
The nightgown was torn open, revealing the cotton long johns underneath.
The secret guard in cotton long johns covered his mask and jumped back onto the beam.
He is too embarrassed to face anyone and will definitely become a laughing stock in the team for a long time.
"I wonder what position Your Majesty wants to assign to me?"
"...I originally wanted you to rest at home."
General Lei was in a dilemma and pleaded, "As your Majesty's subject, I should share your worries. I cannot take the salary for nothing. I am only willing to serve your Majesty and be a small soldier."
The emperor didn't believe that there were people in the world who loved to work so much, and the officials who held real power were also afraid of being unemployed.
This is because once you take a paid vacation, even though you have fun, you will be far away from the center of power.
So he felt that Lei Ning was just making excuses, and in fact he was just reluctant to lose his official position.
So he asked: "How about sending you to guard Tingbei?"
Tingbei is a remote area and there is no war.
It is far away from the center of power and difficult to achieve merit.
No one with a bit of ambition would want to...
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
emperor:?
Do you really have no ambition at all?
Do you really just want to share his worries?
Are there really such loyal people?
The world seemed to be gradually turning into a madness that he didn't understand.
Bei Jingchu, who woke up half asleep, was about to die of laughter when she heard their conversation. [Emma, you are still testing him. He is a good worker, but you suspect him of rebellion just because he offended someone? What a diligent donkey, oh no, a worker. If he fell asleep under those bosses, he would wake up with laughter.]
The emperor felt that what Bei Jingchu said made sense. He had misunderstood his donkey, oh no, his minister.
General Lei suddenly heard a child's voice and thought he was hallucinating because he was too tired and didn't sleep well recently.
"My dear minister, it is a waste of your talent to guard Tingbei. In fact, I summoned you this time to find you for another matter. Do you know that many people have impeached you for forming a clique and winning over people's hearts?"
Lei Ning was very surprised. "How is it possible? I don't have the courage at all."
The emperor was speechless. He said he didn't have the courage to do anything he had done.
"I believe you."
Bei Jingchu woke up in a daze and heard their conversation. She was a little surprised:
[Huh? Why is this different from **'s direction? ]
The emperor raised his brows slightly. He couldn't hear the little princess's thoughts completely. Sometimes the humming sound would cover up her thoughts.
What are those **?
General Lei heard the inner voice again and was stunned.
His eyebrows jumped, suspecting it was an assassin, and wanted to rush over to protect the emperor.
The voice sounded again: [That's great. The heroine Lei Nian'er will not turn evil because of her father's execution, and will not instigate the hero to cause chaos in the country in order to avenge the royal family. ]
General Lei finally confirmed that the sound came from the baby cradle next to him.
"Your Majesty, what is that?"
"This is my eldest daughter. Since she lost her mother, I will take care of her for the time being."
The emperor paused and said, "Why? Are you also going to persuade me not to put the little princess in the imperial study?"
"I dare not. Your Majesty's decision, I dare not interfere."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction. In this respect, he was much more sensible than those old stubborn people.
But he is a fool, and he doesn't know that it is a taboo for a general to win over the hearts of the people.
If Lei Ning could hear other people's thoughts, he would have captured the person as a monster and sent him to the Imperial Master's Zhaixing Tower.
But this is your Majesty's princess.
He is loyal to His Majesty and also loyal to His Majesty's princes and princesses.
Anyone who can remain safe and sound beside His Majesty, the True Dragon Emperor, is definitely not an evil spirit.
After the emperor gave Lei Ning a scolding, he finally realized what he had done wrong.
I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat.
“Your Majesty, these were the ideas of my wife. They sounded reasonable to me, but I didn’t expect to make such a big mistake.
My mind is not clear anymore, please allow me to rest at home."
What a good strategy of retreating in order to advance. It seems that Lei Ning is still smart, but he is confused by the pillow talk.
"Your wife..." The emperor originally didn't care about the family affairs of his ministers, but now it was obviously not a family matter.
"Let's check it out."
[Wow, is his wife a spy? So exciting!]
The emperor thought so, but he didn't dare to say it directly.
General Lei was suddenly awakened by Bei Jingchu's voice, and his hair stood on end when he thought of what his wife had done.
"I'll take my leave now." He wanted to go back quickly to find out.
After he left, he was still thinking about what the little princess said in her heart.
Isn’t Lei Nian’er his eldest daughter?
She was born to one of his concubines, and he usually didn't pay any attention to her.
Looking back now, this child was indeed the most well-behaved, and the look in his eyes when he looked at him was the most admiring.
It turned out that after his death, the child took revenge on the royal family for him.
Although Lei Ning is loyal to the emperor, he would rather die than take revenge on the royal family.
But I was still very touched when I heard my daughter do this.
It seems that I have to be nicer to the child in the future and teach her to be loyal. Even if she is wronged, she must not bring harm to the country and the people.
When General Lei returned home, he saw his wife's second daughter pulling out the hairpin from her elder sister's head.
"You are a concubine's daughter, and you are not worthy of wearing the same color as me. Believe it or not, I will let my mother beat you."
His eldest daughter was somewhat domineering and arrogant, but he had a good relationship with his wife, so he could not help but favor her.
Now that I've been hurt and I've removed the filter of love, I realize how outrageous my bias is.
Lei Nian'er saw her father come in and looked at him for help.
But thinking back to the past when they encountered this kind of situation, they would only teach her that as an older sister, she should give in to her younger sister.
So Lei Nian'er lowered her eyes and chose to remain silent.
