The emperor pulled open the curtain of the palanquin and looked at Ling Yuxuan. There is no need for that. I don't want to listen to you. How can I accept such an absurd thing? I, the dignified Second Prince of the Tianqi Kingdom, actually fell in love with a man. How can I endure this? Where's your face?"
"Big Brother, look at what you're saying. I saw that you were angry and was afraid that you would be angry, so I chased after you to calm you down.”
"You brat, hey, follow me to the royal study.”The Emperor pulled open the curtain of his palanquin. Ling Yuxuan untied the reins of the horse and set it free. The horse ran away happily, and Ling Yuxuan got into the palanquin.
"Tell me, even if you have to think of a good reason, you'd better give me an explanation. Why are they together?”The Emperor said with a livid expression.
"Big Brother, we still have to talk about this matter from a year ago. It seems like when Second Brother was defeated, Bai Yi saved him and fell in love with him. I don't know the exact situation, but I know that they really liked each other. In order to leave Second Brother, Bai Yi even took a drug that caused him to lose his memory!”
"Oh, there's such a thing?"
" That's right. Bai Yi has always wanted to leave Second Brother, thinking that this would be the best for him. However, in my opinion, Bai Yi is very important to Second Brother, and he's very afraid of losing Bai Yi. Big Brother, you know Second Brother's temper. He won't easily give up on the person he likes. Even if Bai Yi doesn't get together with him, he won't accept you if you find him a beautiful woman. He'd rather die alone."”Ling Yuxuan sighed as he looked at the Emperor.
"Emperor, we've arrived at the royal study!"
"Big brother, let's go to the royal study first!”
Pushing open the door and entering, Ling Yuxuan looked at the stack of memorials on the table and was dumbfounded. Why were there so many?
"Big brother, how can there be so many?”
"We can discuss these things later. Tell me about your second brother first. The most important thing now is to think of a way to convince your second brother.”
"Big Brother, you know Second Brother very well. Bai Yi will only do what's best for Second Brother. He won't hurt him.”
"I know all of this. I can see how well Bai Yi treats your second brother, but he's a man. If that's the case, how is your second brother going to establish his authority in the army? How is he going to convince the ministers?”
"Is that what Big Brother is worried about? As long as you help Second Brother, the army will be handed over to me in the future. I will protect your country with you.”
"You…why do you support them so much?”Ling Yuxuan's attitude made the Emperor feel very puzzled.
"Big brother, you weren't in Qushui, so you didn't see Second Brother's expression when he found out that Bai Yi was leaving. It was as if the world had suddenly turned dark and colorless. I didn't see any hope in Second Brother's eyes. At that time, I was a little scared. I was afraid that Second Brother would take things too hard. It was also that look in his eyes that made me understand. The love between them was very deep, even deeper than my love for Nichang. He was my brother, and what I wanted to see the most was his happiness. He was very happy when he was with Bai Yi."This is what I want to see, so I support them. Only Bai Yi can let Second Brother live freely. Big Brother, didn't you always say that Second Brother lives a depressed life? This is where the problem lies. It's because we didn't listen to Second Brother's heart.”
"Third brother, you…after hearing what you said, I don't have the heart to break them up, but what should I do?”
"Does Big Brother agree?" Ling Yuxuan asked in surprise.
"Can I not agree? Your second brother has indeed changed a lot since he came back. This is all because of Bai Yi, right? Just like you said, I also hope to see the two of you live a happy life.”
"Big brother, I see that you're tired too. There are so many memorials, why don't I show them to you?”
"Just take a look!"
Ling Yuxuan walked over to the table and sat down. He looked at the large memorial on the table seriously. The Emperor was sitting beside him, thinking.
"Big brother, it says that the flooding in Sand City is very serious. The people are preparing to move. Moving is a matter of manpower and money.”
"Third Brother, you might not know this, but the terrain of Sand City is prone to water accumulation. Moreover, the dams at high altitudes are prone to collapse and are not easy to deal with.”
"Big brother, you can plant trees around to prevent the loss of water and soil. You can also plant some plants around the dam. If it really doesn't work, you can draw the water out according to the flow direction. Although it's a little troublesome, it's much more convenient than moving. Although the terrain of Sand City is full of water, if this water source is used well, it will bring great benefits to the people of Sand City. Sand City is prone to floods during the rainy season, but it's almost always short of water during the rest of the time. As long as the environment was improved and the water source was treated well, this would be a good place. By then, the people would be able to grow food and be self-sufficient.”
"Brilliant plan, brilliant…Third brother, can you give me a concrete plan?”
"Yes, I can write it for you now.”He waved the brush for a while, then the brush fell and dried. He handed the blank paper to the Emperor, which was filled with small characters.
"There's a plan on it, but we need someone capable to do it. Big brother, you need to find an honest official to be the imperial envoy.”
"I know about this. I will handle it carefully.”The Emperor looked at the treatment plan in his hand and praised it endlessly.
"Emperor, Prime Minister Su Yun, Lord Su, requests an audience!”Eunuch Li's voice sounded from outside the door.
"Hmm? Why would the Prime Minister come over at this time?”The Emperor asked in confusion.
Ling Yuxuan quickly stood up from his seat." I don't come here for no reason. I think you must have something to do."”
The Emperor walked to the desk and sat down before saying,"Let the Prime Minister have an audience."”The Prime Minister walked in and was slightly surprised to see Ling Yuxuan.
"This lowly official greets the emperor. Long live my emperor. Your Highness, live a thousand years."
"My dear minister, please excuse me. What's the matter?"
"Emperor, this lowly official heard that the flood in Sand City is very serious now. The people are clamoring to move.”The Prime Minister lowered his head, his eyes shining brightly.
"Oh, the news of the prime minister has spread very quickly. There is already a solution to this problem. I am just worried about who should be sent to do things. Why don't the prime minister recommend someone?”
"Have you found a solution? I feel that Lord Leng is more suitable for Leng Xing of the Ministry of War. This person has martial arts and is smart. When he does things, he should not make any mistakes. He is also a rare talent, but he has been buried.”
"Leng Xing? I've heard of this person before. He's fair and impartial. He used to be the commander of the guards, but I don't know why he was demoted, so I haven't paid attention to him. Now that the Prime Minister said it, he can really go.”
Ling Yuxuan had been observing Prime Minister Su Yun from the side. From the moment Su Yun entered the door, Ling Yuxuan felt that Su Yun's aura was a little familiar and strange at the same time. In short, it felt strange, but he could not remember where he had felt it before. Su Yun felt that Ling Yuxuan's gaze was always on her, so he turned his head and happened to meet Ling Yuxuan's gaze. Su Yun took the initiative to ask.
"I wonder why your highness is looking at me like this?”
"Oh, I see that there seems to be some dirt on the prime minister's face.”He quickly moved in front of Su Yun. Ling Yuxuan actually stretched out his hand and rubbed a black spot on Su Yun's face. There were black marks on the white silk cloth.
The Prime Minister was stunned."Hehe, I accidentally rubbed it somewhere when I entered just now. Thank you for your mercy, Your Highness. I am very grateful."”
"Prime Minister, is there anything else you need to report?”The Emperor interrupted their conversation.
"No, this lowly official originally planned to discuss the matter of the commoners moving with the emperor. Since I have already thought of a countermeasure, this lowly official will take my leave first.”
"In that case, Prime Minister, you can leave first.”
"Your humble subject obeys." The moment he turned around, the coldness in his eyes was obvious. However, no one noticed it. Ling Yu Xuan only felt that his aura had become extremely strange in an instant. When he carefully sensed it, it was gone. Everything happened too quickly, so much so that Ling Yu Xuan felt that it was an illusion.
"Could it be that I'm hallucinating after reading too many memorials? Or am I just being paranoid?"
"Third brother, third brother, what are you thinking?”
"Ah…Oh…What did you just say?”
"Why did you touch the Prime Minister's face?”
"The prime minister's aura is a little familiar and strange. I suspect that he is not Su Yun, so I want to see if he has a human skin mask on his face.”
"How about it? Do you have a mask on your face?”
"I can't tell. I don't know if we're thinking too much or if his disguise skills are too good, but I can't feel anything on his face.”
Su Yun, who had left the palace, had a wicked smile on her face. She touched the place where Ling Yuxuan had wiped. There was indeed something dirty.
"I thought this brat had discovered something, but it turns out that there really is something dirty.”Su Yun took out a piece of silk cloth from her bosom and began to wipe herself. She casually threw away the silk cloth and it fluttered in the wind. Then, she sat on the carriage and returned to the residence.
in the Royal study
"Do you think we should send Leng Xing to deal with this matter?”The Emperor looked at the memorial and asked.
"Big brother, I still feel that the prime minister is strange. It's better not to send the person he recommended.”
