After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 216 Take action when it’s time to take action

Governor's Mansion.

Zong Zhengxi was awakened by a maid.

He had suffered a lot yesterday. When he opened his eyes, he felt sore all over, and he really didn't get enough sleep.

He was a little grumpy.

Lu Yuan sat on the chair and said indifferently: "If it's any later, you'll be late for court."

Zong Zhengxi yawned and looked towards the dark sky: "So early..."

Lu Yuan took a sip of tea and said, "This is not the imperial palace. We will be delayed for some time on the road, so we have to go earlier."

Zong Zhengxi said groggily, "Can't we take a day off?"

Lu Yuan said: "No."

Zong Zhengxi got out of bed feeling aggrieved.

Yesterday's clothes were no longer wearable, so Lu Yuan asked someone to prepare a new set for him. He was reluctant to accept it, as if he didn't want it or not.

Lu Yuan placed the teacup on the table and said, "Your Majesty, you'd better hurry up. You'll have to change into your dragon robe when you enter the palace."

Zong Zhengxi curled his lips in resentment, opened his arms, and asked the maid to help him change clothes.

When I finished washing up and went out, it was still pitch dark.

Zong Zhengxi asked doubtfully, "Do you get up so early every day?"

He thought he got up early enough in the palace, but when he thought about it carefully, he only had to go from his bedroom to the Golden Palace to attend court. Lu Yuan lived outside the palace, but he always arrived earlier than him.

Lu Yuan said, "The Governor's Mansion is relatively close. Some ministers live far away. They have to get up at 3 p.m. to attend court. Your Majesty, you have never seen a minister who is late, right?"

Zong Zhengxi remained silent.

He always felt that being an emperor was tiring, but when he left the palace he discovered that the people had their own sufferings and the ministers had their own hard work.

Lu Yuan glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to leave."

"Ah."

Zong Zhengxi obediently followed Lu Yuan out of the yard.

Thinking of something, he asked Lu Yuan: "By the way, where is your grandpa?"

Lu Yuanfeng said calmly, "I went for a walk."

That’s what the old man said. If he said one more word, the two of them would start fighting again.

Zong Zhengxi was shocked: "Everyone in your family gets up so early."

That’s not the case. For example, his mother can sleep until noon.

Just before getting on the carriage, Banxia hurriedly caught up with him, carrying a food box. "Sir, the young lady prepared some snacks for you and the young master. Let you eat on the way."

Lu Yuan nodded.

Zong Zhengxi was somewhat envious: "Is it because I came today that I have it, or do you have it every day?"

Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course it happens every day."

You think you're special, boy?

"I don't have anything to eat before I go to court."

This is the rule of the imperial palace. The emperor can only eat after he leaves court.

Thinking of this, Zong Zhengxi felt that Lu Yuan was not so miserable. At least he could still eat something on the way.

"I'm hungry."

Zong Zhengxi said.

Lu Yuan frowned and reluctantly opened the food box. After choosing for a long time, he picked out the smallest dessert and handed it to him.

Zong Zhengxi: “…”

-

As soon as the two of them left, Bai Yuwei arrived.

She was wearing Miao clothes and claimed to be the daughter of the Miao King. The gatekeeper did not dare to neglect her. He invited her to sit in the flower hall and immediately went to report to Manager Cen.

But Bai Yuwei was not reasonable at all. She grabbed the servant and asked, "Call Lu Yuan out!"

The servant said, "The Grand Commander has gone to court and has just left. If you are looking for our Grand Commander, you can go and follow him. If you are fast, you should be able to catch up with him."

Bai Yuwei scolded: "Why am I chasing him? I'm not here to look for him!"

The servant was confused: "You just didn't... who are you looking for?"

Bai Yuwei let go of the servant: "Where's Meng Qianqian? Lu Yuan is not here, ask her to come out and see me!"

The servant replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Excuse me, young lady, do you have a visiting card?"

You can cause trouble for the Grand Commander, but you can't cause trouble for the Young Madam.

"What do you mean by visiting card or not?" Bai Yuwei was impatient and pushed the servant away and walked inside, "Meng Qianqian, come out!"

-

"Young Madam! Young Madam, something's wrong!"

A maid hurried to Tinglan Courtyard.

Baoshu woke up a little early today, and Meng Qianqian was braiding her hair.

After hearing the maid's report, she handed Bao Shu to Li Ma: "Let Banxia give you a beautiful acupuncture."

Bao Shu patted herself: "Beautiful."

Meng Qianqian couldn't help laughing, pinched her soft little face, and left the room.

"What's the matter?"

she asked.

The maid said, "There's a Miao girl outside, claiming to be a daughter of the Miao people. One moment she's looking for the Grand Commander, the next she's looking for the Young Madam, and she's even fighting with Fugui and the others!"

Fugui is one of the gatekeepers.

Meng Qianqian said calmly: "Take me to have a look."

The maid responded, "Yes, Madam!"

Bai Yuwei was rushing all the way, and when Meng Qianqian saw her, her whip was about to fall on Manager Cen's head.

Meng Qianqian grabbed her whip.

Bai Yuwei pulled it and took a closer look: "It's you? You finally came out!"

Manager Cen bowed and said, "Young Madam."

Meng Qianqian said: "Manager Cen, take them to treat their injuries first, and leave this to me."

"Eh."

Manager Cen hurriedly asked the guards to take away the servants who were whipped.

"You dare to stop me?"

"I'm saving you."

Meng Qianqian coldly threw away her whip and said, "You even dare to hit Manager Cen. You really know how to pull out a tiger's whiskers!"

"What do you mean by beard or no beard? I..." Bai Yuwei almost let the cat out of the bag, and immediately changed the subject, "Did you bring back an old farmer yesterday?"

Since her grandfather hadn't revealed his identity, she couldn't reveal it without permission.

Meng Qianqian looked at her in confusion. How could Bai Yuwei know about this?

"What do you want?"

Bai Yuwei said arrogantly: "Where is he? I want to see him!"

A trace of suspicion flashed across Meng Qianqian's eyes, and she said calmly, "This is not up to you."

Bai Yuwei said disdainfully: "You don't want to detain the person, do you? Ah, I understand, are you playing some shady tricks? I warn you, give up this idea as soon as possible! You can't curry favor with him!"

"Oh?"

It seems that she guessed right. Grandpa's identity is indeed not simple.

Meng Qianqian wiped her lips calmly with a handkerchief and said with a faint smile: "Who are you to him? How dare you speak like that?"

Bai Yuwei said disdainfully: "I'm afraid if I tell you, it will scare you to death!"

Bao Shu waved her arms and said fiercely: "I'll scare you!"

"Oh my, little ancestor, this is not the place for us to play."

Nanny Wan was halfway through eating the melon when she was exposed by Baoshu, so she had to leave in shame, carrying the young lady.

Bai Yuwei said with disdain: "There is a child."

Her grandfather hated children the most, so she had to take him away quickly.

"I'm warning you one last time."

"I'm also warning you one last time."

"If you don't accept my toast, I'll drink the wine for you! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

"What's there to fear when a defeated general speaks out?"

"you you you--"

Bai Yuwei was so angry that she jumped up and hit Meng Qianqian with a whip!

Meng Qianqian was not polite to her. She pulled out the dagger from her waist and cut off her whip with one stroke!

Bai Yuwei's face changed: "My whip! The whip my grandfather gave me! This is a gift from the Miao people. You are dead!"
