Hunting system, and I ended up becoming the empress!

The next day, Xiao Zhixing trained and handled affairs as planned, without being affected at all.

Bai Su was sick and looked listless, so Xuemei asked her to go back and rest.

The barrage in the live broadcast room was still not displayed, but the number of people online had reached 17 billion and would not increase any more.

"Your Highness, tomorrow will be your first time attending a grand court meeting. The palace has sent you court robes. Would you like to take a look?"

What's so good about it? Aren't all court robes the same?

When it was unfolded, I realized that it was a pure men's court dress. The height was according to her size, but the shoulders and chest were not fit.

Was this because the emperor ordered the clothes to be prepared in a hurry? Or was someone deliberately targeting him?

Hongmei asked anxiously, "What should we do?"

Wouldn't the prince be laughed at if he went to court wearing ill-fitting court robes?

Xiao Zhixing thought for a while and said, "How about I wear my armor to court first? Can you guys try to modify it for me?"

It was too late to do it temporarily or go to the palace to ask for it.

If you argue with the embroiderers and maids in the palace about such a small matter, it would seem like you are making a fuss over nothing.

If you blame them, they might even make excuses like there isn't enough time or there's no precedent.

I'm totally disgusted with you.

Bi He hesitated for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I have a court dress here. I just need to change the waist pattern..."

"Ok?"

Bi He Fuli, "I dare not hide it. That was made for me by the late Queen, Princess Yuan Sheng. She never wore it before. I kept it as a keepsake. If you don't..."

Xiao Zhixing stopped smiling, and everyone held their breath and knelt down subconsciously.

The house was filled with noise.

Biyun said anxiously, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Sister He overstepped her authority for a moment. Please forgive her for her age and hard work."

However, several Mei girls did not speak. They knew the priorities and would never go against Xiao Zhixing. Their master's will was their will.

Xiao Zhixing glanced at the four maids, and his sharp gaze made their backs stiffen.

"This king does not need subordinates who act on their own initiative."

The four of them touched the ground with their foreheads, not daring to have any more thoughts.

"However, Aunt Bihe had her reasons for this incident. Since she helped me out of my difficulty, I will forgive her and will not do it again."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Bihe and a few others left the hall to get their clothes, looking at each other with complicated expressions.

Biyu said calmly: "Sister He, the prince is not a princess, you'd better adjust your style in the future."

The prince is more rule-abiding, has a natural sense of authority and will not be too close to his subordinates.

But he is clear about rewards and punishments, is rational and solemn, and pursues practicality. Such a master is easier to serve as long as you do your job well.

As for the princess, she was kind and friendly, and could laugh and joke with them, so she was indeed easy to be liked by everyone.

But this is not the attitude that a superior should have. Kindness does not hold power.

She didn't know who was better or worse, she only knew that one should adopt a style of doing things that suits the master he served.

Bihe was stunned, "...I was confused. Thank you, sister Biyu, I don't need to worry about it."

They brought the box, gently opened it, revealing the purple first-class court dress inside, then carefully unfolded it and hung it on the display rack.

Xuemei couldn't help but exclaim, "So beautiful!"

The radiant deep purple color is noble and mysterious, with mountains, rivers, birds, beasts, fairy grass and a four-clawed golden dragon embroidered with gold and silver threads on the finest Tencel.

Brilliant.

This court dress has been modified. It is combined with men's court dress, and the collar, cuffs, shoulders, waist and chest have been adjusted to add peony embroidery patterns that belong to women.

Xiao Zhixing raised his eyebrows, somewhat curious as to why Xiao Yan had made such court robes for him but hadn't worn them.

She stretched out her hand, and everyone helped her change her clothes gently.

"Your Majesty!"

The maids and nannies couldn't help but bow to her together, as if they were shocked by her nobleness and majesty.

Xiao Zhixing took a look at himself in the full-body bronze mirror and, ahem, felt a little conceited.

Not bad, not bad, looking like a prince.

She immediately decided, "I will make my court dress this way in the future."

"Yes." Bihe and the others were happy.

That day, she stayed in the mansion and played chess with Xiao Yuanshan, a terrible chess player.

The live broadcast room is still the same, with no barrage and no movement, but the number of viewers has not decreased.

I guess the interstellar side must be anxious too.

"My dear, at the grand court tomorrow, the court should discuss the selection of the governor of Beizhou County. What do you think?"

Xiao Zhixing made a move casually, "Did father hear the news?"

An Ziji died tragically, and Qi Danhe is temporarily serving as the governor of Beizhou County. The court should indeed consider a new candidate.

But she also has some ideas.

Xiao Yuanshan made a move and said, "The officials recommended several people to Your Majesty, among which the third son of the Li family and the second son of the Zhao family are the most popular."

The third son of the Li family, Li Su, is the son of Li Xiao. He has always been in the capital and this time he is also seeking to be transferred to another place.

The second son of the Zhao family, Zhao Zhong, is a relative of the emperor within the four generations of mourning, and is a well-known figure in the Zhao family.

"If the two of them go to Beizhou, aren't they afraid that the northern barbarians will attack from the south again?"

Xiao Yuanshan looked at her carefully, "My dear girl, tell me what you think?"

Xiao Zhixing smiled and said, "Beizhou has just experienced a disaster, and the defeated soldiers of the Northern Barbarians occasionally cause chaos. If you are not careful, you may lose your life."

Xiao Yuanshan stroked his beard and understood that his daughter did have some ideas about that place.

Xiao Zhixing dipped his finger in water and wrote two names on the table.

Xiao Yuanshan's tiger eyes lit up slightly, "Will His Majesty agree? Your arrangement is clearly intended to interfere in the affairs of the Northern Province."

Xiao Zhixing smiled mysteriously.

She also wanted to test whether the conversation between the emperor and the emperor system counted, and whether Zhao Yunqi would really "favor" her?

The next day, Xiao Zhixing got up early to train. He ate a relatively dry breakfast, changed into his official uniform, and rode out with Xiao Yuanshan before dawn.

When they reached the palace gate, other officials went in one after another. A young eunuch came over immediately when he saw them and said, "According to your majesty's order, Prince Zhenguo and Prince Yuansheng may ride their horses into the palace."

Some officials nearby were stunned.

Xiao Zhixing said calmly, "Father, let's go in."

"Hey, Your Majesty, are you being considerate of me, your father?"

The father and daughter rode into the palace on horseback, causing those officials who had to walk on two legs to grit their teeth in envy and jealousy.

Oh, there is also a Li Xiao. The emperor gave him a sedan chair, and he is being carried slowly now.

Xiao Zhixing chased after him and greeted him with a bow, "Old man, I heard that Mr. Li San is going to Beizhou to take up a post? I'm familiar with that place, it's vast and sparsely populated, and there are bandits everywhere. After the battle of Sanqingyuan, many stragglers of the Northern Barbarians escaped. Tsk tsk, they haven't been killed yet."

Li Xiao was slightly startled and couldn't help looking at her, wondering what she meant by this.

He glanced at Xiao Yuanshan behind him again.

Xiao Zhixing rode his horse and walked side by side with his sedan chair, telling the story in a vivid and moving voice, "An Ziji's family died tragically. More than 200 people died tragically. Even a three-year-old child did not escape. The blood flowed so much that the entire mansion became a river."

"Not only him, but also some local officials and gentry have been killed, or their family members have been killed. Tsk tsk, in that place, it's very common for someone to die."

Li Xiao stroked his white beard and came to his senses. Is this... intimidation or threat?

What does that mean? Is it implying that he shouldn't allow his third son to go to Beizhou?

"Prince Yuansheng's words are too alarmist. Beizhou is our Great Sheng territory, how can it be unsafe?"

Xiao Zhixing smiled, "Really? Then just think of it as a story I told you."

Once they entered the Great Court Hall of Qiansheng Palace, all civil and military officials stood in line as per the rules.

Some people noticed that Xiao Zhixing's court dress was different, but they just thought it was specially made for the emperor.

(Thanks to Lin Erlang who likes golden thread fish for the reward. I wish all the friends who are about to take the college entrance examination and the families of friends who have candidates in their families will get all the correct answers. Those who check in here will definitely get into 985 or 211!)
