Chapter 354 After the Raiders 4
Chapter 354 After the Raiders 4
The little emperor was not a fool and would quickly guess who it was. But Ji Yanli was not afraid. He was just a kitten with unsharpened claws. So what if he knew it was him who did it?
She will only feel more afraid, and maybe even give in out of guilt and offer him lots of benefits.
Ji Yanli was not wrong in his guess. That night, the palace presented him with a stream of rewards, and the reason was also known:
I heard that the Regent had a headache, and I'm deeply worried...
Bah bah bah we talked a lot.
Ji Yanli glanced at the crystal-clear jade-like Tao inkstone, the round and large Dongzhu pearls, the rare ancient books, and the calligraphy and paintings of famous people...
He nodded and had it put away.
Seeing that he had put the things away and his expression had eased, the leading eunuch breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor had instructed him to make sure the regent calmed down.
After completing the task, the eunuch quickly returned to the palace to report.
Ji Yanli went to the original body's warehouse and was shocked.
The original body had twenty storerooms: one for gold and silver, one for fine jade, one for antiques, one for rare calligraphy and paintings, and one for precious fabrics as thin as a cicada's wing...
rich!
The twenty warehouses are already full, and the surrounding yards have begun to be cleared out again. Twenty-one, twenty-two... and there will be more and more.
Even though Ji Yanli had a lot of good things in his space, he still felt very relieved. Seeing so many treasures neatly arranged and stacked up all over the room, any depression he had would disappear.
He suddenly didn't feel sorry for his original self anymore.
Having mountains of gold and silver and losing love is no big deal.
But on second thought, if it weren't for that female strategy capturer, the original body's fate should have been to wear the yellow robe and ascend the throne to become emperor, instead of being fooled and being a slave for the rest of his life.
After collecting the things, Ji Yanli attended the morning court the next day. Seeing him, the little emperor on the throne felt relieved but humiliated at the same time.
He's the emperor! Ji Yanli, that bastard, relied on his power to actually try to intimidate him. Damn it!
The ministers were still arguing over the issue of offering sacrifices to heaven. This matter had caused panic among the people, and if it was not properly resolved, it would always be a hidden danger for the court.
Some censors suggested that the little emperor write a confession of guilt, while others said that there was no need to worry about it and that the discordant voices would soon die down. In short, no one spoke to the little emperor's heart.
What he wanted most right now was to restore his reputation and re-establish his authority, not to write some bullshit confession of guilt and admit his mistakes!
Besides, what had he done wrong? This was all just Ji Yanli playing tricks.
The young emperor looked at Ji Yanli with a pleading look in his eyes: "Regent, what do you think we should do about this?"
"Alas," Ji Yanli sighed, "The late emperor's favorite candidate for the crown prince was the third prince. Unfortunately, the third prince was murdered during his southern tour. The late emperor was furious, and after finding out that the murderers were the fourth and fifth princes, he immediately attacked them.
Then he took a fancy to the Seventh Prince. After all, although the Seventh Prince was young, he was talented and gifted. Who knew..."
The ministers listened quietly, they all knew what Ji Yanli had not finished saying.
Unexpectedly, the seventh prince was killed by the eldest prince. The smart prince was beaten to a bloody pulp and was taken advantage of by the mediocre second prince.
But for some reason, the second prince died inexplicably, and in the end, the only next generation of the royal family was the little emperor.
Ji Yanli touched his nose. The second prince was killed by his original body. If he hadn't cared about Princess Qingning, he would have killed the little emperor who was sitting on the throne now.
But Qingning died on the eve of her wedding with her original self, and her death was tragic. She became the white moonlight that could not be erased from the original self's heart. For her, he was willing to give up the throne he had obtained and support the young emperor to ascend the throne.
However, no one else knew these inside stories except the original owner and a few of his confidants.
When they heard Ji Yanli talk about this, they felt more and more that the young emperor's throne was unworthy.
Ji Yanli put his hands in his pockets and said a lot. In the end, he said that he had no choice. The emperor was already a mature emperor. When encountering problems, he could not seek external help and had to find a solution himself.
Ji Yanli also used a high-sounding reason.
"This is also a test from me as a teacher to the Emperor. The Emperor will handle it, right?"
What can the little emperor say?
He forced a smile and said that he would resolve it as soon as possible and asked the Regent to rest assured.
Ji Yanli didn’t know whether the little emperor felt aggrieved or not, but the little emperor’s revenge came quickly.
He persuaded the Empress Dowager to summon the daughters of officials of the third rank and above in the capital and held a disguised blind date party for Ji Yanli.
The little emperor knew that Ji Yanli would refuse, after all, he loved his dead aunt terribly, but the little emperor just wanted to annoy him.
And they even call it doing it for his own good.
After Ji Yanli rejected these girls, the young emperor didn't believe that the ministers behind the girls would still listen to Ji Yanli without any disgust.
The young emperor thought that when he grew up a little, he would hold a beauty contest and select all the women who could provide him with assistance into the palace. Those ministers would always understand who they could follow to have a future.
While writing the edict of repentance, the little emperor was thinking about how to deal with Ji Yanli in the future. After he finished writing, he looked at the densely packed words on the rice paper, and his knuckles turned white.
Such a small person, but there is a murderous look in his eyes!
No matter how they fight, entering the palace to attend the banquet is indeed great news for Meng Tiantian, who is trapped in the general's mansion and cannot go out.
In order to get her stepmother to let her go, she tried her best to please her and show herself before the banquet.
After she left, her elder sister Sang Ning pouted.
"Mom, what's wrong with your brain? Why are you so stupid and stubborn? Why are you so stubborn?"
Cao patted her hands and said, "Let her go. Just treat her as a joke. We won't be the first ones to be unable to bear it."
Sang Ning knew that the first person who couldn't stand it would be her father.
Her father is very concerned about his reputation. Sang Yu has made a fool of herself many times in front of few people, causing her father to be laughed at by his colleagues. If she does it again, her father will pack up and throw Sang Yu out without her mother having to do anything.
On the day of the banquet, Meng Tiantian got up early and dressed herself. She wore a pink brocade jacket with a straight collar and a double-breasted design, and a white fur collar around her neck, which made her face look pink and pretty.
Sang Yu's body is not as beautiful as Princess Qingning's, but if she takes good care of herself, she can be considered a pretty girl. Makeup is Meng Tiantian's forte. She is a professional makeup artist in modern times and knows best what kind of makeup can make people fall in love with her without looking deliberate.
It's just fake natural look.
And then there are those innocent deer-like eyes.
Meng Tiantian looked at the beautiful little beauty in the bronze mirror.
She thought to herself: With her previous experience with Ji Yanli, as soon as she sees him, she will definitely have him under her control in an instant!
By then, this flower from the top of the mountain that countless people want will belong to her, Meng Tiantian.
In the carriage, she closed her eyes and dozed off, thinking about how to get rid of Sang Ning, the nosy man, and move around alone when she entered the palace.
When they meet again, she must leave a deep impression on Ji Yanli.
