    After sending the Minister of State Affairs away, Jingluan began to review the remaining memorials.  Time passed by every minute and every second, and finally she finished approving the last memorial, put down the pen in her hand, rubbed her astringent eyes, stood up and stretched, and murmured: "I'm so tired!"  .¡±

    The maid brought a bowl of "Osmanthus and Lotus Seed Candied Soup" in good time, Jingluan asked while drinking, "What time is it?"

    "Your Highness, it's already past midnight, and we have to get up early tomorrow, so it's time to go to bed," said the maid.

    "Has the father gone to bed?" Jingluan said.

    "Your Majesty has been asleep for a long time." The maid said softly.

    Jingluan nodded, and said: "Send the document that I have finished approving on the case, and send it to Father's desk. Then you go to rest, I want to be alone for a while." The maid hesitated to speak, and finally packed the document  , exited the study to go.

    Jingluan picked up a dagger from the desk, the scabbard made of sharkskin, inlaid with gold and jewels, extremely gorgeous.  Pulling the sword out of its sheath, a mass of red light shone for a moment, filling the entire study room like fire, which greatly dimmed the light of the Ye Mingzhu.

    Jingluan stroked the sword gently, looked at the moonlight like water outside the window, murmured in a low voice: "Are you thinking of me all the time like I miss you?"  Covering Jingluan's face, two teardrops have quietly dripped in the cold wind of late autumn

    Behind him, the study door was pushed open, and an old figure walked into the room.  Jingluan wiped away her tears, turned her head, and said in amazement: "Father? You, what are you" The person who came was indeed His Majesty the Mowu Kingdom.

    The Demon Emperor was wearing a nightgown, looking at his daughter's haggard face with distress, and said: "Haven't you slept yet? Although there are many political affairs, you must also pay attention to your health. Don't rush everything, take your time, tomorrow will be tomorrow, tomorrow will be the next day."  There are so many, you are still young, and you have plenty for tomorrow."

    Jingluan smiled, stepped forward and hugged her father's waist, and said affectionately and mischievously: "I remember that my father didn't say that before."

    "Oh? Then what should I say?" The Demon Emperor joked that he was obviously accompanied by his beloved daughter, and he was also in a good mood.

    Jingluan pursed her lips and said: "When I was young, you didn't let them play, but you pushed them to learn, always saying: 'Learn quickly, tomorrow will be tomorrow, there will be so many tomorrows, you can't learn by playing, it's a waste to delay until that day  ?'¡±

    The Demon Emperor laughed "haha", lovingly stroking his daughter's hair, with a happy expression on his face.

    "Father, haven't you already slept? Why" Jingluan asked suspiciously.

    "When people get old, they sleep less. When I close my eyes recently, I am always afraid that I will fall asleep and never wake up again. But, now is not the time for me to sleep forever. There are still many things to deal with."  The Demon Emperor sighed.

    "Father!" Jingluan said coquettishly, "Didn't my daughter retrieve the 'Shoushou Pill' for you? At least Father can live another hundred years."

    The Demon Emperor laughed "haha": "One hundred years? Isn't that 'old and immortal'? I'm afraid some people will be impatient at that time, and they will be disgusted! You still don't understand that my illness is a heart disease,¡ª  ¡ª¡ªSince the moment Jinger died in the Shengyuan Empire ten years ago, I have been ashamed. A person is truly lifeless, and even any panacea will not help. The reason why I can survive until now is  I don't worry about you at all, alas¡ª"

    "Third brother has been gone for more than ten years, so father doesn't want to" Jingluan whispered.

    The Demon Emperor's face was gloomy, and he said: "Your third brother, I had high hopes at first, thinking that thanks to the Demon God's blessing, the revival of the Mowu Kingdom would be on him, how would I know" The Demon Emperor shook his head, sighed, looking  Looking at her good daughter, her face was full of pity: "I only pity you as a daughter, but impermanent fate, how unfair you are to our father and daughter!"

    "Father, the third brother must not want to see you like this." Jingluan said angrily.

    "Okay, don't talk about these disappointing things." The Demon Emperor surrendered to his beloved daughter and said, "It's getting late, go to bed quickly, and you have to get up early tomorrow."

    "Father, do you think it is appropriate for me to deal with the political affairs of the court and the government officials who have made mistakes in the past few days?" Jingluan carefully supported his father, walked out of the study, and walked to the bedroom, while asking.

    "The handling is very appropriate. Let go and do it. With me, even without me, Prime Minister Leng Yu, he will help you." The Demon Emperor pointed out lovingly.

    "Leng Yu? He, will he?" Jingluan asked hesitantly.

    "Hehe, no one knows this old guy better than me, and no one knows me better than him. For thirty years, he has been assisting me in managing the government and serving as the prime minister. His experience is impeccable. Why, don't you believe it? Today you  Didn't he summon that old fellow Ju Lai to deal with Wu Nian and Li Yuan who are bold and reckless?Just do what you want, otherwise, no one can protect you.  His Majesty has been in power for more than thirty years, and he killed quite a few disobedient courtiers, you should know that.  Now that His Majesty has handed over the government affairs to the Princess, we must serve Her Majesty as if we were loyal to Her Majesty, and we must not be distracted or half-hearted¡ªthis is my last advice to you.  "

    The Minister of State Affairs was stunned, and said: "This, how can this be done? When the two Highnesses are in charge, don't we"

    There was a sneer at the corner of the Prime Minister's mouth, and he said: "You, the real eyes are blind Well, don't say too much, since you have come to ask me for advice, I have already told you my opinion, as for the actual choice, it is up to you."  It's up to you."

    Seeing the Prime Minister's indifferent attitude, the Minister of State Affairs was very displeased, and deliberately provoked him: "The princess asked me to deal with Li Yuan and Wu Ni, according to your opinion, how should I deal with it fairly?"

    The Prime Minister didn't open his eyes, he patted the armrest of the seat, and said calmly but firmly: "You act now, visit the Prosecutor, and join him, the general negotiator Li Yuan and all his subordinates, and arrest them overnight for interrogation.  If the evidence of the crime is true, kill him immediately; as for the leader of the Venus Legion, Wu Nian, follow the same procedure, hand him over to a military court, and sentence him¡ªat least not less than ten years.¡±

    "What, what?" The Minister of State Affairs was taken aback, and lost his voice: "You, you are not crazy, are you?"

    "They are the ones who are crazy." The prime minister's expression remained unchanged, and he sighed, "Since they ignore my words and seek their own death, even the gods can't save them."

    The Minister of State Affairs sat on the chair heavily, lost his mind, and was speechless for a long time.

    "You have to do this matter right away¡ªif you still trust me and want to keep your position. Remember, don't be half-hearted. As long as you are loyal to His Majesty and don't hold anything back, you will have nothing to lose."  Seriously, otherwise everything will be uncertain." The Prime Minister said meaningfully.

    "But, but why exactly? The government of the entire empire hides filth and evil. There are not a few people who are corrupt, and those who neglect their duties are not absent. Why do the two of them have to be punished so severely? You have been in charge of the government for more than 30 years.  Could it be that even these two people can't be kept when things come to an end? If Li Yuan kills him, he will kill him, but Wu Nian is your own nephew, you, you can do it?" The minister of state affairs had a dry throat, and his throat moved again and again  , finally shouted hoarsely.

    "The two of them were actually not convicted of corruption and rebellion. How can I save these two crimes alone? Why should I punish them heavily? The princess doesn't have to summon you just for this crime.  I want you to submit a punishment plan. As your government minister for decades, don¡¯t you really feel a little abnormal about the current political situation?" The Prime Minister said slowly standing up, his body seemed extremely old, and walked to  In front of the window, looking at the howling night wind outside the window, he murmured: "The wind is blowing, 'the mountain is about to rain and the wind is blowing over the building'! It seems that there is still a heavy rain coming!"

    The Minister of State Affairs furrowed his brows tightly and sat on the chair thinking hard. After a long time, his brows suddenly relaxed, and he blurted out: "So it's like this I understand. I'll do it right away! Just do what you want.  "

    "Very good! I didn't waste all my efforts in cultivating you. At the last moment, you finally stopped and did not fall into the abyss. This matter must be presented to me before the princess summons me at noon tomorrow.  In this way, we will be in a favorable position." The Prime Minister patted the Minister of State Affairs on the shoulder, sat back in his chair, and said wearily.

    The Minister of State Affairs stood up, hesitated to speak, and finally paused, turned and left.

    Looking at the leaving figure of the minister of state affairs, the prime minister seemed to be ten years old, slumped on the chair, and felt that he had no strength to move anymore.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
