Mind reading, the emperor saw my fist hard

The next day, early in the morning,

It was still a little cold in the autumn morning, and all the officials walked into the court room in an orderly manner.

Today's Chaofang has a different scenery.

A short woman stood at the door of the court room, staring at the officials with her eyes half open, looking drowsy.

[Do you want to live? He got up in the middle of the night to attend court. Does the emperor think he has lived too long? Is he sending himself away early? ]

[Long-term staying up late can lead to hair loss and sudden death. Can't you go to work properly at a normal time? 】

This made sense, and all the officials nodded in agreement.

It's okay in spring and autumn, but going to court in summer and winter is simply torture.

It’s hot to death in the summer and cold to death in the winter.

But the next moment an official reacted and realized that the voice sounded familiar. Who was it?

Wasn’t it the same little voice that was chattering excitedly about His Majesty’s romantic scandals yesterday?

Only this girl dared to say that the emperor wanted to send her away early.

Fortunately, the emperor is not here now.

The court officials who reacted immediately stayed away from the girl. Although the news about her was good, it was dangerous to lose their heads.

After pulling his clothes together, Xu Jinyu continued to lean against the door of the court room, staring blankly, waiting for the emperor's reward.

"kneel!"

Xu Jinyu was startled awake by the ceremonial officer's loud shout.

"bye!"

There was another shout, and all the court officials bowed down in unison.

"rise!"

"If you have something to report, report it. If not, leave the court!"

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

The Minister of Rites came out.

Emperor Xuan waved his hand, signaling the Minister of Rites to speak quickly.

"Your Majesty, our crown prince was blessed by heaven and obtained a high-yield of grain. From now on, there will be no more famine in Daqian."

"Yesterday, a hunter in the east of the city caught a white tiger. This is a good omen, and I am presenting it to Your Majesty."

Emperor Xuan showed an interested look on his face, "White tiger..."

At this time, a crisp voice came.

[The white tiger is an albino tiger. Why are you so worried about giving an albino tiger to the emperor?]

Emperor Xuan's expression changed again. The white tiger was sick.

The Minister of Rites fell to his knees with a thud, sweat pouring down his head.

"His Majesty………"

[However, this albino tiger is not only beautiful, but also rare. I don’t know if I can see it. ]

Minister of Rites: "!!!"

Can you finish your words in one breath?

[What a fool this emperor is. He should just do his job as an emperor. Why is he creating auspicious signs? Isn't this just a trick to fool people? ]

courtier:"…………"!!!

We know this is a hoax, but could you please shut up!

This was what everyone in the room thought.

The auspicious signs were a game that the court officials and the emperor knew were a well-known one, and they were played for the world to see.

Haven’t you seen how many founding emperors have created a lucky companion for themselves?

This time, the White Tiger was also arranged by the Ministry of Rites, with one purpose, to tell all the countries in the world that Daqian is God’s own son.

Please be polite to us.

So we know it's fake, you really don't need to say it.

Emperor Xuan clenched his fists. Why was it so difficult to endure this day?

Zi Shuyan lowered his head and smiled secretly. This was nothing. Xu Jinyu hadn't made his big move yet.

[Colorful clouds, favorable weather, double ears of corn, spring water, rare and exotic animals are all natural phenomena and are deceptive.]

[Oh, how long should I wait? I got up too early in the morning and I’m hungry.]

Emperor Xuan glared at Zishuyan and waved his hand to let the Minister of Rites stand up.

This auspicious drama can no longer be performed.

"Let Miss Xu come in quickly."

Emperor Xuan planned to end the war quickly and send Xu Jinyu away immediately.

"Announce Xu Jinyu!"

“It’s finally my turn.”

Xu Jinyu immediately straightened his clothes and strode into the court room.

Then the courtiers' looks changed again.

Why does Miss Xu walk so proudly and heroically? She is even more heroic than a man.

The women of Daqian are particular about walking in a graceful and elegant manner. Who has ever seen Xu Jinyu walk like this?

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that Xu Jinyu is virtuous, diligent, docile, kind, and a good example to the wife... and hereby enfeoffs her as the Princess of Zhengyang County, with the fief of Zhengyang County. This is my decree."

Xu Jinyu raised her head blankly. She understood the first and the last sentence, but she didn’t understand anything in the middle.

But those are not important. What is important is that from now on she is the Princess of Zhengyang County and has a fiefdom, which means that someone will send her money every year.

She knew the procedure for announcing an imperial decree, so she took the imperial edict handed over by the eunuch with both hands and stuffed a red envelope into the eunuch's pocket.

The expression on the eunuch's face froze, and he didn't know whether to answer it or not.

How can you stuff something in public like this?

【Why do you think it’s too little? 】

Xu Jinyu was puzzled and began to grope in his sleeves again.

The frightened eunuch snatched the red envelope and ran away.

Xu Jinyu looked around.

[I can leave now.]

[But before I leave, let me see who the Third Prince who played with Daqian is. Who knows how many years I, the Princess of Zhengyang County, can enjoy. ]

"Snapped!"

"Plop!"

"oops!"

.........

Emperor Xuan was horrified. How could his Daqian be gone? He raised his hand but slapped it on the dragon throne, grimacing in pain.

Although he wanted to make the third prince the crown prince, the child came too late. In addition, the crown prince was very capable, so he couldn't force it!

The timid officials have already knelt down, and the brave ones are covered in cold sweat.

Daqian was finished by the third prince, what about the crown prince?

The officials' gazes suddenly changed direction.

Some looked at the crown prince, some looked at the third prince.

The prince is fine, he's used to it.

The Third Prince couldn't bear it any longer. Facing the gazes of all the officials and his father's murderous look, the Third Prince Zi Shuran knelt down with a plop.

Zi Shuyan then lifted the front of his dress and knelt down leisurely.

The officials' actions frightened Xu Jinyu, and he opened his eyes wide.

[What's wrong? Everyone kneel down. ]

[But it should be none of my business. I don’t understand these national affairs. I’ll slip away now.]

Xu Jinyu tucked the imperial edict under her arm, lifted her skirt and prepared to run.

The officials behind him stretched out their hands.

It's none of your business. Tell us how the third prince destroyed Daqian.

"Zhengyang County Princess!"

A majestic voice came, and Xu Jinyu, who had just taken a few steps, turned around and stood upright.

"Princess Zhengyang, you got the seeds of sweet potatoes and potatoes, which is a great contribution to Daqian. Although there is no precedent for women to serve as officials in Daqian, I can make an exception for you."

[No, I have never worked, and I don’t want to work. I have my own fiefdom now, so why would I work? My mission is to save the world, not to be an official.]

The disdain on Xu Jinyu's face was so obvious that Emperor Xuan clenched his fists again in anger.

I will endure it!

After knowing why Daqian was destroyed, he threw Xu Jinyu to the prince and let him worry about it.

"Grant the title of Princess Xu Jinyu of Zhengyang County as..."

Emperor Xuan was somewhat hesitant. He felt uncomfortable giving Xu Jinyu a high position, but if he didn't give it to him, he would still need Xu Jinyu.

"He is the head of the Ministry of Revenue."

It just happens that I'm stuck at the official level that requires me to attend court every time.
