Chapter 119 Questions
Song Chuji bit her on the face in hatred, with such force that Nie Shuangshuang could tell there was a red mark without even looking.
It was indeed a dog, and it was so cruel.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I did vomit all the way and I feel very uncomfortable."
The bright big eyes were filled with pitiful tears, which made Song Chuji feel even more itchy.
But he still patiently touched her stomach and asked with concern, "Does your stomach feel better now? I'll ask Wang Xiaorui to bring in some cakes."
This group of people disguised themselves as rich young men and headed south. They were followed by many people and naturally brought a lot of food with them. After setting up camp tonight, someone would go hunting.
Nie Shuangshuang shook her head to signal him to stop, "I am suffering from the same old illness as before, it's not a big deal, Your Majesty, please don't bother the people below, it's not easy for them either."
The influence of the queen, who is kind, gentle and considerate of her servants, is fully demonstrated.
She and Song Chuji were having a great time playing and joking in the carriage, and their laughter could be heard outside the carriage.
The news happened to reach the ears of Concubine Mei and Liao Wei. Concubine Mei brought her here specifically.
He tilted his head to glance at Liao Wei's gloomy face and said seriously, "Did you see that? Chu Ji and Shuang Shuang are so in love and in harmony. If you rashly want to interfere, will His Majesty forgive you with his temper?"
Liao Wei lowered her head and said nothing, and no one knew what she was thinking.
After arguing for a while, Nie Shuangshuang returned to his carriage on the pretext that he had to handle official business. After returning, he heard Wang Xiaorui whispering outside, "Empress, the maid Liao Wei beside Concubine Dowager Mei deliberately fell in front of Your Majesty today. I wonder if she has a crush on Your Majesty. Your Majesty must be prepared!"
He really does support the Queen, and he won't allow anyone to destroy the Emperor and Queen CP he supports!
Nie Shuangshuang nodded to indicate that she understood. She was just a palace maid and she didn't take her seriously.
If Liao Weiruo really had that much ability and could make Song Chuji infatuated with her, it would not be impossible for her to enter the palace to help her share the task of sleeping with him.
Nie Shuangshuang tried every trick in the book, but she still couldn't make Song Chuji fall in love with her wholeheartedly!
Liao Wei?
No matter how great your abilities are, you can't surpass her.
"Miss!"
Hui'an lifted the car curtain and turned to look at Liao Wei who was standing there.
The originally eager gaze turned cold the moment he saw Liao Wei.
"Your Majesty, that is the maid who deliberately approached Your Majesty. She behaved so indecently, yet she was able to follow the Concubine out!"
Seeing Hui'an, Nie Shuangshuang's heart was also settled, "Go and get me some food, I'm starving."
Hui'an nodded and went out to give orders.
Song Chuji sat in the largest and most luxurious carriage, listening to reports from several of his trusted associates, but he seemed a little absent-minded.
Floods have occurred frequently this year, and seem to be more frequent than in previous years. The southern part of the country is low-lying and humid, and the accumulation of rainwater has caused the water level of lakes to rise sharply, flooding the fields and making the people suffer terribly.
The silver that the court had previously distributed was used for disaster relief, but unfortunately in the end it was all taken away by corrupt officials, and wars and uprisings broke out frequently.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! What is the matter with you?"
Song Chuji's mind was wandering, but he was called back by this voice.
He looked at his confidants below and said, "Who are they? Kill them immediately!"
Confidants: "..."
Bro, are you sure?
Just kill him? No need to investigate?
"Not only that, Your Majesty, I also heard that the environment in the refugee camps is even dirtier and worse. Many refugees are homeless and gathered together. When they get sick, no one cares. Many people have died!"
"Yes! According to the spies, those local petty officials took advantage of their power and acted like local tyrants, increasing taxes and making the people miserable!"
Song Chuji gnashed his teeth in annoyance when he heard this. "I originally thought that even if these people were greedy for money, they would not take human lives lightly. I didn't expect... it was because I was too careless that these people took advantage of the opportunity!"
Because of this, he disguised himself as an ordinary rich young man, wanting to see how rampant these people could be.
"The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. Besides, there are many rainy and mountainous places in the south, so few people are willing to go there. As time goes by, the local officials have become more unscrupulous and extravagant. The taxes paid to the court every year are all the blood and sweat of the people. It's really abominable!"
Although these people are now prosperous and have become high-ranking officials, they had nothing in the past when they followed Song Chuji and suffered all kinds of hardships and sins!
They are even more aware of how hard life would be for the lower-class people if they were exploited by officials.
"Your Majesty, although we cannot kill them all, if we find a few who are too harsh, we can make an example of them and make others afraid to do the same."
Song Chuji was not in a good mood and sneered, "Since I am here, I must completely eliminate these people. There must not be any hidden dangers!"
Is it because he has too good a temper, or is it because he has restrained himself from killing people since he ascended the throne, causing these people to forget how he got the throne!
Several people had been discussing flood control plans. After thinking about several plans, they all felt that something was not right. Before they knew it, it was dark.
They had to set up the tent first, and after everyone had settled down, Song Chuji held Nie Shuangshuang and watched the stars on the grass.
"Shuangshuang, do you feel cold?"
Nie Shuangshuang was quietly held by her and shook her head. She liked this kind of atmosphere, quiet and peaceful. Although it was not as prosperous as the palace with fine clothes and delicious food, it gave people a very peaceful feeling.
It would be nice if I could live here forever.
"I have a difficult question that I want to ask Shuangshuang."
Nie Shuangshuang was feeling comfortable in the breeze. After hearing what he said, she asked curiously, "Your Majesty is wise and powerful. What do you want to ask me?"
She is just a kind-hearted vase who knows nothing.
Even if she knew, she had to pretend not to know. It would be troublesome if Song Chuji found out that her innocence was just an act and that she was actually very evil.
The image that you worked so hard to build will completely collapse!
“I am going to the south this time to investigate those corrupt officials, punish them properly, and promote some useful talents to serve the local people.
Secondly, we need to deal with the flood problem. Does Shuangshuang have any good ideas?"
Nie Shuangshuang: "..."
What the hell!
Are you asking about government affairs?!
that……
Nie Shuangshuang's mind was spinning frantically, "Your Majesty, I am a woman in the deep palace, how can I know all this? I am just accompanying Your Majesty and taking care of Your Majesty. As for flood control, Your Majesty still needs to discuss it with the adults!"
This is too scary. She needs to think carefully about how to answer. If she answers a question poorly, she will be suspected of interfering in politics.
