After Emperor Xiao Jing left, Censor Xie and General Shan and his son also prepared to leave.

He was stopped by the other adults, “Your Excellency the Censor, I heard that you and General Shan were with the Emperor during the New Year.

Do you know what happened during this period? Why did the emperor's temperament change so drastically after returning? "

Xie Yushi pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Nothing happened. How can you talk about the emperor's affairs casually?"

Prime Minister Shen looked at Censor Xie with disdain, and gave a wink to the officials of his faction, telling them to leave quickly.

Under pressure from Prime Minister Shen, many officials did not dare to continue to surround Censor Xie to ask questions.

Officials who were not on Prime Minister Shen's side continued to question Censor Xie, "Sir Xie, please explain and point out a clear path!"

Xie Yushi hesitated for a while, then whispered to the ministers, "It was during this half month that the Emperor asked me to accompany him on a private visit.

Only when I became an ordinary businessman and lived in people's homes did I realize how miserable people's lives were.

According to the people, the court imposed heavy taxes and levied exorbitant fees.

But you also know that the emperor is kind and has been reducing taxes for the people for so many years during his reign.

The result is that these corrupt officials have ruined the country's reputation, causing the people to live in misery.

Perhaps because of this, the emperor wants to crack down on corrupt officials and has already collected a lot of evidence.

Donations are just a legitimate excuse for people to reveal their stolen money.”

So that's why. No wonder the emperor suddenly changed.

"Then, Your Excellency, what should we do?"

The officials surrounded Censor Xie and questioned him, saying that it was a sure thing to follow the footsteps of the emperor's favorites.

"Then I don't know what to do. You guys decide what to do. Goodbye!"

After saying this, Censor Xie ran away quickly, fearing that saying more would expose the truth.

Returning to the imperial study, Emperor Jing felt a headache when he saw the pile of memorials submitted at the beginning of the year!

When will the workload be reduced?

"Your Majesty, Miss Xia is here!"

"Please invite her in!" Emperor Xiao Jing was delighted when he heard that Xia Youan was coming.

After receiving the approval, Xia Youan trotted in and rushed straight to Emperor Xiaojing. He slammed the memorial in front of him and said, "Tell me what new things happened in the court this morning?"

Emperor Xiao Jing smiled helplessly and put down his pen. "As you said, the morning court will be postponed to 8:30, and then we will work five days and rest two days."

Xia Youan opened his eyes wide, "The ministers didn't object?"

Emperor Xiao Jing looked at Xia Youan's gossipy eyes and said with a smile, "They objected! Didn't you teach me not to refute them?

Then I will do as you say. Those who object will continue to attend court at 5:00, and those who don't object will attend court at 8:30. Anyway, I won't go that early."

"Sure, Chu Tiance, act decisively!"

Emperor Xiao Jing glared at her angrily, "How disrespectful! One moment you call me father, the next you call me big brother, and now you're calling me by my full name!"

Although it was a scolding, there was a hint of pampering in his tone.

"Hey, why bother so much?"

"How do you feel about your first day as a teacher? Did those old corrupt officials in the Imperial College give you any trouble?" Emperor Xiao Jing took the memorial again and began to review it.

"This is not my first day as a teacher. Didn't I serve as Mo Yuan's teacher for a period of time before?" Xia Youan flipped through the memorials on the table boredly.

I categorized them while I was looking at them.

Chief Steward Xu was sweating coldly when he saw this. Miss Xia was really a brave woman. She even dared to touch the memorial.

After hearing this, Emperor Jingdi's hand trembled while he was reviewing the memorial, and a big drop of red ink fell on the memorial.

Xia Youan naturally took out a tissue and dipped it in the ink, absorbing the excess ink. "Alright!"

"Isn't it too tiring for Old Seven to pick us up and drop us off like this? It also delays his work. Otherwise, I will just go to your place once a month from now on to save him the trouble of running back and forth."

"No need. Let Xu Da, the chief steward, go to Beichuan for a while and let Xie Youzhi train a few more pilots.

"When Chief Steward Xu learns how to fly, I'll give you a private jet, and you can take you wherever you want to go in the future." Xia Youan said naturally.

Chief Steward Xu stood aside, his expression excited, "Miss Xia, can a servant fly a plane too?"

"Why not? Chief Steward Xu is so capable, he must look awesome flying a plane!"

Emperor Xiaojing had just finished reviewing one memorial and was about to get another when Xia Youan took one from another pile for him.

"All these are just useless memorials of greetings and flattery, and some are long-winded and miss the point.

Just use it to relieve your boredom when you are in a good mood. There is no need to spend energy criticizing these.

Look at this pile. I've sorted them out for you. These are for people's livelihood, and these are for begging."

Emperor Xiaojing: "..."

Looking at the memorials in front of me that Xia Youan had sorted into categories, with only a few left, I felt that today's workload could be completed in just one morning.

Then why did he review memorials day and night in the past?

"Honestly, do you want to hire me as your assistant? I don't ask for a high salary. I can take these useless documents and sell them to Chu Linzhou.

But there is one thing: it must be stamped with your emperor's seal, otherwise it will be worthless!"

Xia Youan mumbled a lot to himself, and Emperor Jing realized that he was here to beg.

Emperor Xiao Jing reached out and unknowingly gathered the useless memorials that Xia Youan had picked out in front of him. "No need for that. You should just be the assistant to the Seventh Prince. I have Xu Mingyuan here, and that's enough!"

Chief Steward Xu nodded fiercely, "Yes, Miss Xia, the Emperor has servants to serve him here. Please don't try to steal my job!"

In order to divert Xia Youan's attention, Emperor Xiao Jing asked, "You just said that Xu Mingyuan should learn to fly a plane, but when Tian Lin asked about it, didn't Old Seven say that he couldn't learn it?"

"Oh, you can't learn it in modern times. The exams are too complicated. You need a license to do anything in modern times, and the exams are divided into practical and written theoretical knowledge exams.

In Da Chu, you don't need to take a license test, you just need to know how to drive!"

Emperor Xiao Jing understood, and General Manager Xu became even more excited. He didn't know when the prince would start teaching.

"Bring Xu Mingda along when you teach."

"Who is Xu Mingda?" Xia Youan was curious. Why had he never heard of this person before?

"come out!"

At the command of Emperor Xiao Jing, Xu Mingda immediately appeared in front of Xia Youan, scaring Xia Youan.

Where did this person come from?

Emperor Xiao Jing saw Xia Youan's doubts and said, "He is the leader of my secret guards, protecting my safety at all times!"

"You mean he's always been around you? Then why haven't I ever seen him?"

"Not really. Sometimes when I go to court, he stays in the imperial study to prevent things from being lost!" the emperor explained.

Xia Youan: “…”

Then why didn't we see him come out to stop us when we turned your imperial study upside down last time?

Xu Mingda seemed to have seen through Xia Youan's thoughts and said, "Miss Xia, the emperor has already instructed that no matter what you, the King of Chu, or the King of Qi take, I will pretend not to see it!"

Xia Youan was stunned. Seeing this, Xu Mingda quickly explained, "The King of Chu and the King of Qi both know that I am in the Imperial Study!"

Xia Youan: “…”
