The Fourth Princess's Gossip System

149

Zhang Fei got off the horse carriage with steady steps, followed by the Rose, Jasmine, and Peach Girl. They stood in the middle of the vast courtyard of the forbidden palace, where rallies were usually held. The surrounding scenery is so amazing, with magnificent buildings decorated with ornaments typical of ancient Chinese architecture.

The forbidden palace consisted of a series of beautiful pavilions, courtyards, and gardens. Its sturdy walls are made of red marble stone with intricate carvings and depict ancient legends. Around it are pools of clear water, filled with colorful lotuses and small fish swimming agilely.

Zhang Fei in his magnificent formal attire, stepped gracefully among the guests present. He kept his attitude respectfully in accordance with the protocols prevailing within the forbidden palace.

Along the path to the courtyard, there were palace guards on guard. They wore uniforms with glittering imperial emblems. Their faces were solemn, showing their obedience and dedication in maintaining security and order within the forbidden palace.

Zhang Fei and his three slaves stood obediently in the courtyard, waiting for the morning meeting to finish.

Ministers coming out of the meeting room have different backgrounds and positions. They wore official clothes that reflected their standing as high-ranking officials in the palace.

Some of them have serious faces, showing responsibility and seriousness in their duties, while others look more relaxed and excited after finishing with a meeting.

Zhang Fei and his slaves remained calm and respected the passing ministers. They do not make sounds or move.

As time went on, the ministers one by one left the court, returning to their respective duties.One of the passing Ministers recognized zhang Fei as the daughter of the right minister.

The girl who created the iodized salt earning method.

The ministers who came out were small ministers so it can be ascertained if the ministers who have level 6 and above still live in the meeting room.

"Princess palace? is there an order from the emperor that we do not know?"asked the minister who asked Zhang Fei.

"This princess did not understand but obtained a call to enter the palace meeting with the Emperor directly this morning" zhang Fei said bluntly.

The man simply said "oh" and then he passed by flicking the tip of his clothes.

As much as the ministers came out, there were some who knew zhang Fei because they had already swallowed the loyalty pill .But once they do not show the relationship just bow their heads and pretend not to know.

That way after the minister who greeted earlier left there was no one to greet zhang Fei in this court.

Zhang Fei and his servant, stood there waiting impatiently for no one to come out of the meeting room.

When the morning meeting was over and all the little ministers had left the court, a Eunuch came in a hurry.

The eunuch said that it was time for Zhang Fei to enter and meet with the Emperor.

Zhang fei walked into the meeting room alone as the Persib girl and the others were slave servants, so they were not allowed to enter.

when his name was mentioned by a man who had a voice toa. everyone looked towards the door and whispered to one another.

Clearly they did not know why the princess of the palace was summoned by the emperor this morning. Among those shocked were the right minister or the real father of the palace princess herself.

From the end of his eyes he gnashed his eyes as if asking what his daughter was doing here. Yet so zhang fei just pretended not to see the meaning of that blink of an eye .He just walked with his head down.

The thing that zhang fei hated the most from the culture in Dayun country was kneeling.

But since this was an unwilling arrangement he had to do it with a big smile whereas in his heart he cursed it.

"Fuck the emperor, a reverent emperor"

"Eternal great emperor survived to live a hundred years "Said zhang Fei with a loud voice.

The emperor did not respond at all but he flicked his fingertips slightly signaling if zhang fei could already stand up as usual.

"Little princess, we have reported that Zhuangzi has cultivated grapes.Not only that we also found that the Princess has made wine with perfect quality. Is that true?" The one speaking was old love but when he spoke it already represented the words the emperor wanted to convey.

Suddenly the hall became noisy.

Some people even went forward to ask the right minister if what the old Eunuch said was the truth.

However, the real father of this palace princess could not answer at all because she did not know, if there was such a thing.

"Mentri honestly you've got a blessing from heaven. Just look at your daughter so promising. With salt alone, he had already provided the state treasury with extra money. But now he can even plant grapes something that could not be planted before on the land of this country.We do not know if the right minister is such a noble person "

"Mentri right, I honestly feel uncomfortable thinking about her marriage to the Prince's uncle instead. She's a talented girl"

Some ministers shook their heads and felt their fate was not too good. If only they had known earlier about how talented the Princess was today perhaps they would have thought of making her a son-in-law at home earlier.

If that were so would not the glory of today be theirs in the end.

But the rice has become porridge, the Princess is already married to the prince's stupid uncle.

Too bad.

What they don't know in fact here is the right minister himself is swearing in his heart.

If she knew if the Princess who was born from this concubine, was actually a very talented girl .How could he just give up with such a stupid man.

Maybe if he gave the wedding to the third Prince. Not only would it give him a good name but it would also give him funds from the profits made from the salt.

All this time, he had only always considered Mei zhang as a jewel that would boost the good name of his reputation as a minister.

At the moment he felt that thought was wrong. It is precisely the Princess who is not considered to make a good name but unfortunately now she is married to a vain person.

It's no use, it's really no use anymore.

Meanwhile everyone's gaze returned to zhang fei to confirm the words from the old Eunuch earlier.

The emperor who was sitting on the throne was also waiting for an answer from him. He wanted to wait for a loophole on how to have this grape-growing method and limit planting on the public side.

Whoever the person is not allowed to grow grapes only the state can do that planting and trade it freely out there.

Just thinking of this the Emperor had already seen if currently zhang Fei was open to humans but was gold money.

Just like the right minister, he also deeply regretted the marriage of zhang Fei to the prince's uncle. Had she sent this girl to be the legal wife of the third prince. It was possible that the third Prince could have already grabbed the crown prince's seat on the grounds of salt and was now a vine.

"Your highness, this Princess only intends to try to have no other intentions. But the Emperor was an emperor that was sanctioned by the heavens so the vine planting was successful without the need for any additional effort"

"His results were not comparable to the efforts made by this princess so all of this was a blessing from the Emperor himself. The life of the emperor was bestowed with the privileges of the gods" said zhang Fei.

Hearing the heartfelt words said by Zhang Fei, the Emperor and several ministers looked at him in different ways.

If people outside heard this perhaps they would say if the zanve really sincerely flattered the current Emperor. But actually with ministers who have memorized their political methods, they think and see these words in an unusual way.

This method of flattery actually made the Emperor die a step. Like when people were playing chess this talk actually directed a dead move for the Emperor.

The Emperor's plan was to make the zangpei submit this method roundly to the state by transparent means of coercion.

But when he said such kind things about the Emperor, how could the Emperor attack him again with such a disproportionate request.

At his mouth, the Emperor was the best gift of the god to the country of Dayun.So how could he roughly bully a girl who was so sweet literally.

Some ministers also thought maybe this was something that was said in a way that had no particular meaning.

But there are also whispers saying if the right minister is an old bastard who is really good at babysitting.

How could a teenage girl, be able to flatter the Emperor without such a doubt.

Ordinary girls would probably shiver when they met the Emperor in the meeting hall like now. But look at the girl who was raised by the minister to the Indian child looking relaxed and confident by praising the Emperor like that.

"Great Emperor, basically this Princess has asked for help from some small ministers about the issue of seedlings from grapes. they are little ministers and do not want to be so conspicuous when they want the results of this wine" zhang Fei said.

The emperor himself knitted his forehead he had not had time to ask where the grape seedlings had come from But now it had been explained directly by zhang fei on the spot.

"The little ministers? tell me" said the Emperor again.

Actually this question also became the mainstay question of the Emperor in threatening the following with the flight of the dove sending letters from the small palace.

But the Princess was really smart like she had prepared everything early.

"Yes the great emperor this princess has also made a list of the names of those who have sent seeds from the wine. We are citizens who are unlikely to get grape seedlings casually. However, these ministers wanted to make achievements in the country of Dayun because of the great emperor"

Zhang Fei had also prepared a list of the names of the people who had already contributed in giving the grape seeds from the very beginning.

They were the ministers who had already swallowed the loyalty pill from him. Contribute unconsciously.

Yet here Zhang Fei wanted to reward their loyalty even though they were actually also insincere.

The name list was taken by the eunuch and given directly to the emperor who still faithfully sat on his throne.

He then reads the list and tries to associate it with enemies who might have the potential to credit the third Prince.

But as far as the memories of the Emperor himself these little ministers were not at all merged with any faction.it could be said that they contributed mindlessly to join the other princes.

"Hem whether this palace princess is really sincere or not. It seems like this girl is not an ordinary girl who only knows waiting at home"thought the emperor who again did not know what to say with zhang Fei's defense.

Everything the emperor wanted to ask was answered by zhang fei directly, even though he had not asked at all.

Now the Emperor was thinking about whether this girl could read the minds of others.

"Daughter she means by volunteering everyone on this list has contributed and done it without wanting their name to be called?"said an advanced minister asking zhang fei.

Zhang Fei heard that, he snorted a little but he did not show his regret.

If this wine problem is really made for the country it is not impossible that the little ministers mentioned in the list will make their position too stable.

With so many more ministers in the country and it makes the state treasury will decrease again to finance the ministers who rise in this rank later.

" Great ministers, they are small people who want to give a good name to the country but don't know what to do. So this princess just overshadowed them with an absurd thought"

Here Zhang Fei argued with some ministers who said the method used in recruiting these little ministers was a political one.

But zhang fei was a girl who had often argued with the prince's uncle in his palace.

That way the matter of fighting verbally this he had also memorized.

"they never thought if wine could really be grown but just intended to try. If it doesn't work out, we won't get caught, but if it works out like now then maybe the product will be directly sent to the Emperor himself. But the great emperor was really a fruit from heaven so he was more familiar with the current situation than ourselves. It is fortunate that Dayun had this great emperor. Great emperor may you be 1000 years old" said zhang Fei who even knelt down again as if he was truly flattering the Emperor from the bottom of his heart.

He cursed it in his heart.

seeing those words the Emperor himself had to clap his hands hearing how great he was to have a tongue-lick.

just imagine the great minister who has experience in tongue-licking in this court is really dead flea.

Hah if only he was a man, perhaps the thoughts and methods he was currently using, could be considered as a contribution to the country .At that time the Emperor himself would probably think of elevating him to a minister.

But it's a pity that she's a girl that of course it won't be possible.
