The Cold King Demands Love and Pleasure

The next morning, Min Youan woke up early and looked at the person lying next to him with a look of complete satisfaction.

He leaned down and placed a kiss on her smooth forehead.

Not wanting to wake her, he moved very carefully, kissing her gently and getting out of bed cautiously.

Cang Jue watched Min You'an's unusually light steps and pondered his own affairs. "Is His Highness in a good mood today?"

"Of course!" How could I not be in a good mood after winning over the woman I love most?

Cang Jue thought to himself, "While the prince is in a good mood, I should hurry up and get to the point. Your Highness, I would like to request two days' leave. There are some matters in the martial world that I need to attend to!"

"Go ahead, go ahead!" He doesn't care about two days off, he can take two months off, as long as he has Xia Tongsheng. It also saves him from having a third wheel around!

“However,” Cang Jue glanced furtively at Min You’an, “we might need something from Your Highness. I wonder if Your Highness will grant it?”

"Here you go!" Min Youan was still immersed in the sweetness of last night and his mind was still a little unclear, so no matter what Cang Jue said, he nodded in agreement!

Little did they know, they had been tricked into Cang Jue's conspiracy!

"Your Highness, I need the cavalry's tiger tally!" He knelt down.

"what?"

How can I easily give something this important to someone else?

"What do you want this for?"

"Your Highness, you already said you would give it to me, you can't go back on your word!"

It's true what they say, like leader, like subordinate. Didn't I treat Yi Bai the same way back then? See, karma's coming back to bite me!

"I've changed my mind! You won't get the Tiger Tally from me unless you give me a reasonable, legal, and justifiable explanation!"

"It's like this, recently there has been a group of people in the martial arts world who specialize in attacking martial artists and the major clans in the forest. They come and go without a trace, but since they can attack hundreds of martial artists in one night, their numbers must be quite large. That's why someone came to me for help, hoping that Your Highness can send troops to deal with them!"

Min You'an frowned. "This matter is a bit difficult. In principle, the imperial court doesn't usually interfere in matters of the martial arts world!"

"Your Highness, only you can help us now. You can't just stand by and watch us die!"

He thought for a moment, then said, "I can't give you the tiger tally! But you can take this!"

As he spoke, he took an oval-shaped jade pendant resembling an arrowhead from his waist and handed it to Cang Jue!

"Your Highness, you're giving me the warrant for your secret guards? What are you going to do about that?"

"It's alright, I can protect myself!"

Cang Jue gripped the jade pendant; this was the only thing he could do now!

"Since you have something to attend to, then go ahead and do your work. You don't need to worry about me here!"

Such an understanding leader is truly rare; the princess's influence is indeed significant!

Min You'an abandoned Cang Jue and entered the palace alone!

He appeared absent-minded in the main hall, his mind completely occupied with Xia Tongsheng, and he was thinking about how to please his wife when he got home so that he could improve their sex life!

He looks exactly like a young, inexperienced man who has just gotten married; he's not mature at all!

His unusual behavior naturally caught the emperor's attention. A few days ago, he always looked listless when he went to court, but today he was so energetic. He must have already won over his wife at home!

They've all been through it all; the emperor understands.

"Your Majesty!"

"My son is here!"

"Tell me, what's the best way to address this issue?"

Have you ever had this experience where you were daydreaming when the teacher suddenly called on you to answer a question?

Min Yoo-an is in this state right now!

But what's worse for Min Yoo-an is that if the teacher asks a question in class and he doesn't know the answer, he can ask his deskmate or classmate!

Sometimes, even if you don't ask, your deskmate or classmates will still tattle on you, telling you what the teacher is asking. What a great classmate!

But what about here?

If the emperor asks you a question, who would dare to report it behind your back? Do they think they're not living long enough?

Feng Yuhan wanted to give him a hint, but unfortunately the two were too far apart, and he couldn't help him even if he wanted to!

In the end, I was still unable to help!

Min Youan couldn't just stand there silently, so he finally spoke up, "Father, your question is too profound; I don't know how to answer it!"

"What's wrong, Your Highness? You can't even answer such a simple question?"

The Prime Minister mocked from the side, "If you don't suppress the Prince now, when will you?"

"Does the Prime Minister think this matter is simple?"

"Isn't handling disaster relief precisely Your Highness's forte? You handled the last flood very well, so you should be able to handle this earthquake just as well, right?"

Upon hearing this, Min Youan discerned from the Prime Minister's words what the Emperor was asking about!

"Last time it was a peasant uprising after a flood that I had to deal with, but this time it's an earthquake, so it should be the Ministry of Revenue's responsibility!"

"They're all the same; they all fall under the category of people's livelihood issues!"

"Your Excellency, you jest! The people's livelihood issues seem simple, but they are actually the most difficult ones. You think that as long as the people are fed, that's enough? But who should pay for the repairs of these damaged houses? The people's livelihood issues are related to the very foundation of Beimin. Your Excellency's statement that they are simple truly shocks me!"

"I'm just stating the facts! Isn't this how we always handle things?" The Prime Minister spread his hands, looking at the Emperor, seemingly seeking the Emperor's support!

"We've always handled things this way, but that doesn't mean we've always handled them perfectly!"

"Since Your Highness thinks we handled it poorly, we would like Your Highness to handle it personally. If Your Highness can set an example for us, we can learn from you!"

The emperor's eyes suddenly lit up. He hadn't expected that the prime minister's idea would solve his problem. With Min You'an leaving the capital, he could get away from Xia Tongsheng!

"My son, since even the Prime Minister has said so, this matter is entrusted to you!"

"But I'm afraid I'm not capable of handling this matter well!"

"Fifth brother, if there's anything in this world that even you can't do well, then there's no way anyone else can do it well!"

Seeing Min Zhifu praising him so highly, Min You'an knew there must be a trick involved. "Second brother's abilities are not bad either!"

"How can the second brother compare to the fifth brother?"

Seeing Min Zhifu's evasiveness, there must be some trickery involved.

"My son, don't refuse. Everyone has high hopes for you! Please take this opportunity to work hard!"

Seeing his father's smiling face, Min Youan guessed what he was planning!

Min You'an lowered his eyes, "Your subject obeys the decree!"

After court, Min Youan looked somewhat dejected. Feng Yuhan came over and put his arm around his shoulder. "What's wrong? Wasn't it a good thing that the Emperor sent you to the earthquake zone? Why do you look like that?"

Min Youan shook his head with a wry smile, "You don't understand!"
