The Love Imagination System

Section 59: Request of Emperor Baili

Emperor Baili's study room had a very admirable aura if it was felt correctly. Here, in addition to books, there are also some rare decorations that can only be owned by the palace.

Each corner is decorated with a branched candle holder made of gold and silver, which will be in harmony with the color of the candlelight when lit.

Large, spacious, beautiful, that's why this place is like a second home to Emperor Baili. Here, he can spend all day reading or completing state affairs that are not completed during court meetings. He also met many of his ministers here, including Baili Qingchen, the uncle and God of War Bingyue.

“So, he's really involved?” the Emperor asked, unsure.

Right now, he was sitting restlessly in his dragon seat. On his desk, an official report was written in dried black ink. The letters contained a description that made his heart riled and angry at the same time.

Emperor Baili looked at him uncertainly, as if what was written there was a mistake.

“Your Majesty, you clearly know that I have never toyed with my work,” replied Baili Qingchen.

He wrote a report and handed it to Emperor Baili after the court meeting was over. Since the case was being investigated secretly, then he also had to report it secretly.

Baili Qingchen looked at her nephew, looking for a doubt that radiated in the eyes of such a sharp yet very young eagle. It turned out to be true, his nephew still could not believe it.

Emperor Baili could not accept the fact that the prime minister was actually involved with a case of smuggling people south to the imperial city of Bingyue. He thought the prime minister would not be that brave until he would use his own hands. It was simply inconceivable in his mind that the old man was actually involved in a matter of this magnitude.

How evil the prime minister is and how crafty he is, he is still an official who loves his homeland. It is impossible for the prime minister to betray his own country by smuggling in foreigners.

That's why Emperor Baili hasn't come to believe this. All the evidence and testimony is clear. Emperor Baili could not deny it anymore.

Emperor Baili was in confusion. For the first time in his life, he had a dilemma. He admitted that he did not like the prime minister and sometimes hated him very much. Emperor Baili hated it when the prime minister always set people up without his knowledge and acted without his consent.

He also hates when the prime minister meddles too much in his personal life and decision-making.

But, after all, he was his teacher. The people who taught him government since childhood were prime ministers and imperial teachers. Whether or not it is said, it must be acknowledged that the prime minister has a great contribution, especially to him and to this country. Although it often makes you angry, but it's all worth the hard work.

“What makes you hesitate, Your Majesty?” ask Baili Qingchen.

He was sure, at this time his nephew was experiencing a fairly heavy inner conflict. Although he did not always side with the prime minister, he clearly knew that the old man had helped the Bingyue government quite a lot.

Moreover, the prime minister was the teacher of his nephew when he was still Crown Prince Bingyue. The current situation clearly pushed him to a dead end.

However, his nephew could not remain silent. Out there, the people of Bingyue are experiencing various threats that come every time. If they knew a southerner had infiltrated and the intruder had not been dealt with, what would they have thought?

Just protesting and spreading rumors is good enough. What if they questioned the integrity of the emperor and told him to abdicate?

“Your Majesty has tolerated too much of the Prime Minister. I could have forgotten about the attempted murder he committed against me and my queen. However, did the people of Bingyue have the same thoughts? If this time His Majesty does not punish him, I cannot guarantee that I will always succumb to you.”

These words were tantamount to a threat to Emperor Baili. He also did not want his uncle to completely turn his back and fight him. It was extremely dangerous, especially since the Jingyi Cavalry was still under the control of Baili Qingchen.

Emperor Baili also wanted to punish and would not forgive the prime minister, but some considerations made him think repeatedly.

“How many days do you need?”

“One day. I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning.”

Baili Qingchen nodded.

“According to His Majesty's request. Then, I'll go.”

Despite not getting an answer now, at least his nephew had already promised. The prime minister this time will not be able to escape. This kind of crime is punishable by death. But because of the service, the sentence may be suspended and replaced with another punishment. Regarding the type, he will know the answer tomorrow morning.

In the mansion, everyone was busy working. The western courtyard became the single most peaceful place because today, Qingyi had all her servants shut down. He just wanted to enjoy the time without being disturbed by the voice of the waiter who almost every time visited his ears. He also closed the gate and locked it from the inside.

Yinghao brought along a lot of packaged food from the dimensional space. He and his master piled it on the table, and then provided a large container. All the contents of the packaged food are mixed into the container, and they have fun until they are full. Qingyi burped a few times.

His laughter never stopped every time he remembered last night's events. The prime minister foolishly agreed to it, trusting it to the point of getting into a trap.

He had originally prepared it for Wang Yiyuan, because he already knew that the black market ruler was the one who helped the illegal immigrants. However, Qingyi was hit with a jackpot when the prime minister came asking for help to free them.

All in all he caught those two flies in one pat!

“Yinghao, this sword is good. You think, if I sell it, I will be able to profit how much?”

Qingyi wielded the battle sword Baili Qingchen had wielded last night. After being noticed, this sword was quite beautiful as well. There was a snow flower-like carving on the handle. Cuneiform and also sharp. The blade is shiny, indicating that this sword is often worn and impossible to retire.

If people knew this was the sword of War God Bingyue, how high would he get?

“Master, you're very calculated. You are already rich enough, there is no need to sell such a precious sword,” Yinghao said.

“Do you think this is valuable?”

“Of course! This sword belongs to the War God Bingyue and is given directly to you. If it was anyone else, they would have put it in the museum!”

“Cih... This is no different from an onion cutting knife!”

Qingyi picked up a fresh apple, then threw it into the air. He danced the sword dance nimbly, then the symmetrical pieces of apples fell arranged on the plate. The skin is peeled off, and the cut is very neat as a professional work.

Finished with an apple, Qingyi took out a few cloves of garlic and onions from the dimensional space, then placed them on a table complete with her coasters. He sliced the onions using Baili Qingchen's sword, so deftly and carefully.

A moment later, he laughed happily. The sword that once spilled blood and slashed the neck of this enemy had become a masterpiece whose pride was dropped to its uttermost by Qingyi. If Xiao Junjie saw this, he would probably faint. The beautiful sword instead switched functions into a fruit and vegetable cutting knife!

Cui Kong peeked through the roof of the building, his eyes wide as if about to come out of his clutch. He blinked a few times, confirming his own eyesight. “What is Your Highness the Princess is not afraid of hanging Your Majesty if she knows her beloved sword made into a fruit cutting knife?” ask in the heart. Cui Kong sighed.
