Chapter 316: The Green Tea Bitch and the Powerful Regent (16)
After half an hour, Yan Xue opened her eyes, stretched, and walked back to the room.
Yun Er outside the door let out a long sigh. He was just thinking that if Miss Yan Er didn't get up, he would go in and call her.
Yan Xue walked forward and pulled out the needles one by one, her movements gentle and skillful.
"Cough cough..." Yun Jingxing suddenly woke up, he actually fell asleep!
He sat up and felt a fishy-sweet taste in his Adam's apple. He coughed violently. Yan Xue immediately handed him a handkerchief and spat a mouthful of black blood on it.
"My Lord, are you feeling better now? Are you feeling better?"
Yun Jingxing looked at the concern in the girl's eyes and nodded, "Much better."
He picked up his outer robe and put it on. He accidentally knocked the pillow on the bed askew and saw a piece of fabric with a crescent-shaped white border under the pillow.
He turned his head and saw the girl packing up the silver needles with her back to him. He quietly lifted the pillow and saw the gorgeous Impatiens flower at a glance.
His face suddenly turned red. He had actually fallen asleep on this pillow just now. The girl's underwear was still on that place.
He recalled the beautiful scenery he saw that day, and suddenly felt his body react. He quickly put the pillow in place, calmed himself, and sat down at the table.
Looking at the girl who was still busy in front of him, he said, "You will help me detoxify. If there is anything you want, I will try my best to satisfy you."
I thought that if she wanted the position of Regent Princess, it was not impossible.
Yan Xue raised her head and said seriously, "I just want the Regent to protect my family's safety."
Yun Jingxing raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, and asked again: "Is that all?"
He coughed, sat up straight, and said with a hint of majesty: "I allow you to say it again."
Yan Xue looked at the Regent in confusion and asked doubtfully, "Your Majesty, this is the only request I have."
Yun Jingxing looked at the girl deeply, "Are you sure?"
Yan Xue nodded firmly, "Sure."
Yun Jingxing felt a surge of anger stuck in his chest. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll come to see you again in seven days." After that, he flew away.
Yun Erze looked at his own prince speechlessly and couldn't help but complain: "Prince, your expression of resentment towards your husband just now was too obvious!"
He shook his head and continued to run to a distant tree and stayed there.
......
"Your Majesty, this is the list of candidates recommended for this official position. Please take a look."
Yun Chong carefully handed a thick list to Yun Jingxing.
Yun Jingxing took the list and began to read it attentively.
This list records in detail the information of candidates for more than 20 official positions of varying sizes, and has obviously been carefully screened and organized.
As he read deeper, Yun Jingxing's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a sneer.
"Humph, the Queen Mother's hands are becoming more and more unscrupulous. She even dares to reach out to the court!"
Seeing this, Yun Chong on the side quickly agreed, "That's right! Your Majesty, in my opinion, many of these positions may have fallen into the pockets of the Queen Mother's family!"
Yun Jingxing frowned, his finger lingering on one of the names, "This Yan Zebang, is he the eldest son of Minister Yan?"
Yun Chong nodded and said, "Yes, I have been working as a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue for three years. I was recommended by the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. However, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is a distant relative of the First Lady of the Yan Family."
And this Hu Mingyi is the nephew of the Queen Mother, and this one was recommended by the Dali Temple Minister, and this one is..."
Humph, a Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue actually had so many people recommending him. He picked up a red pen and ticked a name.
The next day in the harem,
Empress Dowager Hu sat on the couch, frowning, holding the list of officials in her hand. The more she read it, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but slam it down on the table.
"What on earth does Yun Jingxing want to do? He didn't even choose any of the people I recommended!"
The palace maids standing by were so frightened that they dared not speak, for fear of angering the Queen Mother.
Nanny Li came forward and said softly, "Don't be angry, Queen Mother. We need to think about this matter carefully."
The Queen Mother glared at her and said sternly, "How can I not be angry? Yun Jingxing's power is too great. He has the final say on all official appointments and dismissals!"
Nanny Li hesitated for a moment and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, I heard that..."
"What did you hear? Tell me quickly!" The Queen Mother interrupted her impatiently.
Nanny Li bowed her head and replied, "I heard that when this list was handed over to the emperor, he didn't even look at it and directly stamped it with the imperial seal."
"Bang!" The Queen Mother was so angry that she smashed the teacup, stood up and walked towards the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.
"The Empress Dowager has arrived!" A sharp announcement came from outside the Palace of Tranquil Longevity.
Yun Chenxi, who was reviewing memorials, heard the voice and immediately stood up to greet her: "Mother, why are you here?"
The Queen Mother walked in with a gloomy face and frowned at her son: "What are you doing?"
"I am reviewing the memorials."
The Empress Dowager walked to the table, picked up a memorial and flipped through a few pages. Her expression became increasingly uglier.
When Nanny Li saw this, she was shocked. The harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs, and the Queen Mother's behavior was inappropriate, so she immediately sent all the palace people out.
Empress Dowager Hu angrily slammed the memorial on the dragon table and said, "You just approve these things!"
Yun Chenxi looked at his mother in confusion, "What's wrong with this? These memorials are related to the development of the country and the lives of the people. For example, the northern Xinjiang region suffered a severe drought, causing hundreds of thousands of people to suffer and make a living.
The south suffered a flood disaster this year, which submerged more than 100 acres of farmland.”
The Queen Mother pointed her long armor at the Emperor and said angrily, "You, you, you are going to piss me off to death!"
Yun Chenxi looked innocent, not knowing what he had done wrong.
Nanny Li quickly walked up to the Queen Mother and comforted her softly, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. You should take a rest first. Your Majesty is still young."
The Queen Mother was even more furious when she heard this. She couldn't help but raise her voice and said,
"He's already fifteen years old, is he still young? When Yun Jingxing was fourteen years old, he succeeded his father's throne on the battlefield and led the Yun family army to fight on the border!"
