Fast time travel: the sick villain pretends to be kind

150 Chapter 18 I Don’t Know What to Do [-]

"Shadow Three, Shadow Four!"

Two shadows appeared in the room.

"You stay here to protect the princess." Baili Sheng ordered emphatically, "You must protect the princess personally. If anything happens to the princess, this king wants you to be buried with her."

"My subordinate understands."

Bai Lisheng took one last look at Yici, put the short blade into Yici's hand, his eyes were fierce, "Protect yourself."

"En." Yi Ci lowered her eyes and played with the short blade in her hand, it was shining silver and majestic, "You go."

As soon as he arrived in the holy capital, the old emperor couldn't bear it anymore. He really didn't know whether to praise him for being smart or stupid.

Let Bailisheng grow up, and kill Bailisheng at the most inappropriate time.

Interestingly silly.

That night, the holy capital was brightly lit, and the common people closed their houses, with swords facing each other outside the door.

The cries of children resounded through the sky, the barking of dogs continued, and as dawn approached, the crowing of cocks came closer.

Everything is silent.

Finally, the first commoner had the courage to open the door and walked out of the house. The street outside the door was full of corpses, and the blood was still flowing on the ground, black and red, very terrifying.

"Hoo... thank God, safe, safe..."

Soon, everyone on the street looked rejoiced, congratulating on safety.

On the imperial city list, an edict was posted.

The people gathered around to watch, and everyone talked about it, saying it was a big deal. A literate child pointed at the imperial list and read it word by word.

"The old emperor passed away, and the new emperor ascended the throne, amnesty for the world's grain tax for three years."

"Three years of grain tax!" A middle-aged woman in short brown clothes was surprised, with tears in her eyes, "Is it really three years?"

The child pointed to the word 'three years' and said in a childish voice, "Of course it is three years. The word Master taught us can't be wrong!"

In an instant, the people around the imperial list exploded and rushed to tell each other.

The people of the holy capital were all smiling.

In teahouses and restaurants, many literati and politicians raised their glasses to mourn.

"In this world, those untouchables only care about their own land, and they don't care about the safety of the country at all!"

"That's right, the death of the emperor is a heart-wrenching event for the whole country. It's unreasonable that the new emperor should immediately ascend the throne and even pardon the whole world!"

"Isn't this true that the new emperor is a means to usurp the throne!"

A young man in a long gown drank wine and laughed, pointing at the self-pitying person and shaking his head, "I didn't hear you praise him when the old emperor was in power. Why did one or two become the old emperor's sons when the new emperor came to the throne?" follower?"

"Zhang Sheng! You are presumptuous!" A young man in blue robes was full of anger, "We are clearly concerned about the country and society! How can someone like you who pursue fame and fortune understand that!"

"If you don't pursue fame and fortune, then don't take the imperial examination." Zhang Sheng sneered, "Now that the new emperor is on the throne, the emperor's list will post a notice, and a new type of imperial examination will be established.

"What do you mean?"

The people drinking did not understand, "How do you know? Why don't we know?"

Zhang Sheng raised his head, "My second uncle is the minister of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce. Can what he said be true? This imperial list will be posted this afternoon."

"Then what do you mean by simultaneous?"

Zhang Sheng explained triumphantly, "Naturally, the imperial examination is divided into subjects. You can take the one subject you are good at, or you can participate in all of them. If you are particularly good in any subject, you may be able to directly gain His Majesty's appreciation."

"Can you guarantee it's true?"

"What did I lie to you for!" Zhang Sheng shook his head, "My second uncle said that with the craftsmanship inherited from our family, we don't need to follow the path of Wenju, and we can serve the country and the people!"

Zhang Sheng raised his head and poured down a glass of wine, which hit the table fiercely, "From now on, I will never have to read those broken sentences that are too long to memorize! Our Zhang family's craftsmanship will never be buried again!"

All the scholars got excited for a moment and drank to celebrate.

After drinking, go to the Huangbang and wait together.

After noon, the sun slanted.

The scholars were apprehensive and kept looking around.

until--

"It's really posted!"

"It's really posted!"

"My Zhang family's tricks are about to see the light of day again! Hahaha..."

"Hahaha……"

For a while, this group of crazy scholars attracted the attention of the people on Changjie. After three years of amnesty, the reform of the imperial examination system undoubtedly brought the death of the old emperor to the end. No one cared, no one cared.

Three days passed.

post house.

"What's going on? Why didn't His Majesty take the princess back to the palace?"

There was a lot of discussion among the people in the posthouse.

After hearing the news, the Daliang Mission, which had just arrived in the holy capital, even shrank in the post house, not daring to come out.

Princess Jiayi heard the gossip of the people in the posthouse, and thought of Yici, her teeth were itchy with hatred, and when she learned that Yici was not taken into the palace, her mind immediately became active.

"Ask your concubines to come out to see our hall!" Princess Jiayi was very arrogant, yelling outside the gate of Yiciyuan.

Ying Er guarded Yici, "Your Highness, do you need your subordinates to drive away Princess Jiayi?"

Yici put down the lotus seed soup, "No need, let's go out and have a look."

These few days, Baili Sheng lived a happy life. It's really unfair that she has to wait in this small inn if she can kill all directions.

Opening the door, Yici's figure appeared.

When Princess Jiayi saw Yici's face, the brocade on her body, and the personal protection of the second and third shadows behind her, she felt sour.

Originally, these were all hers!
She is the ninth princess, she is the queen!

Princess Jiayi rushed forward, pointed her green-white finger at Yici, and shouted loudly, "You are impudent! You are a little maid, how dare you not kneel down when you see me!"

"Bold!" Ying Er raised his hand, and a dart passed through Princess Jiayi's temples and cut off a few strands of Princess Jiayi's hair.

Princess Jiayi was stunned, and after realizing it, she flinched, straightened her body again, and pointed at Ying Er, "Do you know the identity of this princess!"

"Princess Liang Guo Jiayi." Ying Er replied honestly.

"Then do you know the identity of the woman in front of you!" Princess Jiayi pointed at Yici.

Yinger's tone was immediately respectful, "My master's wife."

Not the Ninth Concubine, nor the Empress, but the wife.

Princess Jiayi's mouth was sour, she stared at Yici, "She is a maid! The most humble maid!"

"Shut up!" Ying Er threw another dart, and Princess Jiayi's hair on the other side also fell off.

Yici pulled her lips, "Princess Jiayi?"

Yici walked down step by step, towards Princess Jiayi.

"You said that this hall is a lowly maid?"

Princess Jiayi was still stubborn, but looked at Ying Er fearfully, "Isn't it?!"

Yici nodded and smiled, "It used to be, but not now."

Princess Jiayi: "...haven't climbed a high branch yet!"

"So what? This high branch, our hall is climbing up." Yici laughed mockingly, "Princess Jiayi? Tell me, in a few days, are you going to bow down at the foot of this hall?"

"you--"

Princess Jiayi sneered, "You are a maid, a fake princess, the new emperor will not let you become a queen!"

"Oh." Yici turned around, "Then, we'll wait and see." (End of this chapter)
