After my mind was read, I became the emperor's favorite

Qi Mingze sat at the table next to the main seat, taking notes of the meeting like a secretary.

Several of the emperor's confidants looked at each other when they saw this. They saw the surprise in others' eyes, but did not say much.

Qi Mingze recorded the core content while communicating with the system in the consciousness space.

[Host, Yun Chengyuan is indeed a member of the Imperial Guards. He is quick in action.]

[I got the book yesterday, and it's here with the Emperor today.] The system was very satisfied with Yun Chengyuan's initiative.

Jun Linyuan, who was sitting in the main seat, also expressed satisfaction with the system's understanding.

However, when he heard Qi Mingze's thoughts, his mood was not so good.

For a moment, he urgently wanted to make it clear to Qi Mingze that the Yun Chengyuan from yesterday was him, but in the end he restrained himself.

[It should have been submitted yesterday. Otherwise, after His Majesty has reviewed it, this arrangement will have to wait until tomorrow.]

Disaster relief is like putting out a fire. I was right about Chengyuan. He's a practical man who doesn't dwell on trivial matters.

After all, the origin of this book is unknown, and presenting it rashly may arouse the emperor's suspicion. Most people may have to think about it for a few days.

He thought of Yun Chengyuan, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He hadn't met someone he got along with so well for a long time.

[Host, you think highly of him.] It was jealous of Huo Le'an.

But for some reason, it couldn't feel any negative emotions towards Yun Chengyuan.

And there is also an inexplicable sense of familiarity, just like the feeling of it getting along with its host.

Forget it, don’t think about it. Maybe it’s because he is the nemesis of destroyers, so it can’t be hated.

[Maybe it's just a matter of aura, his and my personalities are compatible.]

Qi Mingze felt that they were very similar in character, approach and ideas, so it was very comfortable for them to get along with each other.

At this moment, a beeping sound suddenly came from the consciousness space, and the system immediately checked.

[Host, the Mastermind just contacted me. I'll go and reply first.]

[Go ahead.] Qi Mingze also collected his thoughts and listened carefully to the discussion of the people in front of him.

As he listened, Qi Mingze's eyes narrowed unconsciously.

[As expected, meetings are like hypnosis. If I had known this, I wouldn't have listened to the system's nonsense last night.]

Qi Mingze used the skill he had acquired in his senior year of high school, turning a blind eye to the situation, and while he kept memorizing the contents of the meeting, half of his brain had already fallen asleep.

But the handwriting is neatly written and the content is exactly the same. To outsiders, it looks like it was recorded carefully.

After the ministers finished their discussion and filed out, Qi Mingze unconsciously put the record book aside and fell asleep on the table.

After a while, Jun Linyuan saw that there was no movement beside him, so he turned his head to look, and saw a picture of a beautiful woman sleeping.

"Your Majesty, I will go and wake up Master Qi right away."

Chu Dequan was also frightened when he saw this scene and was about to go up and scold him.

Jun Linyuan hissed and stopped him.

"It's okay, just be gentle."

After saying that, he took the cloak and walked to Qi Mingze to help him put it on.

Although it was summer, there were many ice basins in the hall. Qi Mingze was weak, so it was better for him to cover himself with something.

He picked up the record book next to him and returned to the imperial desk, ready to fill it in for him.

But when I opened it, I was surprised to find that the handwriting was neat and beautiful, the content was concise and to the point, and there was no need to add anything.

"Go and get Qi Qing's documents."

Chu Dequan suppressed the shock in his heart and took his apprentice to move the memorial.

When Chu Dequan reached the outside of the hall, he stopped. Degui behind him was puzzled and asked, "Master."

"Degui, you must be more respectful and careful to Master Qi from now on. Don't offend him."

As an old man who has been with Your Majesty for more than 20 years, Chu Dequan understands the Emperor's thoughts better than Your Majesty himself.

He had never expected His Majesty to behave like this today, and this was enough to prove the position of Lord Qi in His Majesty's heart.

It doesn’t matter if you guess wrong. It’s always better to be cautious.

"Okay, Master." Degui was also a shrewd man who had been in the palace for a long time, and he understood things immediately.

"Eunuch Chu, this is."

Seeing Degui moving the unfinished memorial from Qi Mingze's desk, Feng Heng couldn't help but speak out.

Chu Dequan smiled and said, "Master Qi has been assigned other matters by His Majesty, so we are sending this to him. The two masters should finish their official duties first."

Feng Heng and Pei Xiangzhi looked at each other and continued to complete their official duties.

Jun Linyuan couldn't help but smile when he saw the completed official document brought by Degui. It really suited his style.

The two of them were like this, one quietly reviewing documents, the other soundly sleeping, and everything was so harmonious.

[Host, host, please wake up.] This is the scene I saw as soon as the system returned.

The entire system was stunned and controlled for a full minute. When they came to their senses, they screamed and tried to wake up Qi Mingze.

Jun Linyuan frowned. For the first time, he felt that this system was so ignorant.

[System?] Qi Mingze's low, sleepy voice echoed in his consciousness.

He sat up slowly, looking at the cloak sliding down beside him, and was a little dazed for a moment.

[Host, what should I do? What should I do? How should this end?! This is all my fault. I left even though I knew you didn't sleep last night.]

The system was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, spinning in circles. If it had known earlier, it would not have induced the host to read articles late at night.

[It's okay, just calm down.] It's already happened, so we can only try to make amends.

Qi Mingze pulled up his cloak and placed it on the chair, then knelt before Jun Linyuan to plead guilty.

"I have failed to behave properly in front of the emperor. Your Majesty, please punish me."

"My dear minister, you have completed your official duties. If you are really tired, you can go to the side room to rest first."

Jun Linyuan's tone was calm, without any sign of anger.

He dozed off during a meeting and was caught on the spot.

Qi Mingze felt that even though he had practiced being thick-skinned, he couldn't help but blush and look a little embarrassed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After saying this, he followed Chu Dequan away from this place of trouble.

Jun Linyuan sighed. It was a very harmonious atmosphere, but there was always someone trying to ruin it.

[Host, you scared me to death.] The system felt its heart still pounding.

Qi Mingze felt his face burning hot. [This is a social demise. System, I have no face to see anyone.]

[I feel like I'll never be able to be strong in front of His Majesty.]

[Host, your courage is commendable. I never imagined that you would have such great ambitions.]

[Who knows? With Marquis Wuwei's style of seeking death, if his life really comes to a critical moment, he will do everything he can to find a way out for his mother and sister.]

The system was speechless for a moment. It didn't expect that the host had taken on all the responsibilities of the original owner by just borrowing the body.

[Host, I will protect you.] The system swears that its host will be protected by it!

[System, just protect yourself first.]

Jun Linyuan sighed, wondering why this person was so simple and yet so complicated.

"Yingyi." Jun Linyuan called out to the beam.

"I'm here." A figure knelt at his feet.

"Send the case file reporting Cui Mingruo's identity to Qianji Pavilion and then hand it over to him."

"Yes."

After returning yesterday, he sent someone to investigate Cui Mingruo's background in detail.

When he received the investigation file this morning, he discovered that this person not only had a certain status in the literary world, but also had some involvement in the business world. It seemed that this person also needed to be kept under close supervision.

Although he had arranged shadow guards yesterday, due to Cui Mingruo's system, they were not allowed to conduct close surveillance, but only simple peripheral control and whereabouts reporting.

I will have to find ways to learn more about him in the future, but since Cui Mingruo's target is him, he won't get too out of control.

Jun Linyuan's idea was good, but the result was unexpected, and it eventually led to the rise of Xia Linchao!
