My bad words were heard by all the civil and military officials in the court

Ye Shengxin woke up from a dream in which she saw a ghost chasing her and she fell off a cliff while running.

When she woke up, she saw the prince and an unfamiliar old man. When she met two pairs of concerned eyes, she subconsciously shrank back.

He murmured, "There's a ghost, there's a ghost in this place!"

She was terrified and her eyes drifted around, afraid that the scary ghost would jump out again.

"Lord Ye, my father and I are here. Even if there is a ghost, it will not harm you." The prince spoke to comfort him.

The ghost is the wife of the marquis of their own family. The old housekeeper blushed and said:

"Don't worry, Lord Ye. You are the benefactor of our mansion. The ghost will definitely not harm you."

"You won't harm me?" His slow mind slowly came back to life, and Ye Xingxin looked at the two of them, "Your Highness, where is this place?"

This is not her room.

Since the prince appeared here, then when she encountered the ghost before, was it the prince who saved her?

Countless doubts emerged, slowly suppressing the fear in Ye Shengxin's heart.

The prince looked at the old butler, who was ashamed and said truthfully: "Master Ye, this is the Marquis' Mansion."

"The ghost you met before, she...she was the wife of our Pingqing Marquis Mansion who died many years ago. Today, she got help from the Imperial Master and God's mercy, and she just returned home."

"I apologize for any offense I caused you, Lord Ye."

The old butler bowed, his tone sincere.

But it felt like a heavy punch to Ye Xingxin's head.

She stared, "Can the dead be resurrected?"

The prince coughed and looked at Ye Xingxin meaningfully, "With the Imperial Master here, anything can happen in this world. It's just the return of a ghost. Lord Ye, there's no need to make a fuss."

Ye Xingxin: "..."

Ye Shengxin smiled absentmindedly.

[System, am I behind the times, or have I not realized that this world is too crazy. ]

[Ghosts that do not exist in the modern world actually appeared in the ancient world. Do you think it is reasonable? 】

The prince touched his nose and looked away.

I thought to myself: Before your soul from another world came, our world was quite reasonable.

The old housekeeper couldn't hear Ye Shengxin's thoughts and thought she was digesting things.

He retreated silently and prepared to get her the tranquilizer prescribed by the court physician.

The system advised her: [Host, the national master has come out, you should adapt to it. ]

Ye Xingxin was silent.

She got out of bed and glanced cautiously outside the door.

Then he lowered his voice and asked the prince beside him: "Your Highness, who is the Imperial Master, and why have I never heard of him before?"

The prince, with a handsome face, said calmly:

"The Imperial Master has great magical powers and is mysterious. He rarely appears in public. Even I only saw the Imperial Master's true appearance this year."

See you this year?

Ye Xingxin leaned closer to inquire: "Then Your Highness, do you know what the Imperial Master is capable of?"

[Isn't he a charlatan who is trying to get free food and drinks? 】

[In history, there are many emperors who were deceived by the so-called imperial master and spent a lot of money to make elixirs, just to achieve immortality. In the end, they took the elixirs and killed themselves.]

[The current emperor doesn't seem to be obsessed with this, right? He can actually tolerate the existence of a national teacher who could bring disaster to the country and the people. I admire him! ]

Prince: "..."

The prince looked at Emperor Jingming, who was standing at the door and whose smile instantly disappeared, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

He really couldn't understand why Lord Ye always held himself back at critical moments!

"My dear Lord Ye, do you want to meet the Marquis' wife?" Emperor Jingming, feeling hurt, spoke up.

"She was able to come back, but it was all thanks to the ability of the Imperial Master."

Emperor Jingming said this with gritted teeth.

When Ye Shengxin heard the sudden voice, he froze at first.

When she realized it was Emperor Jingming, she thought he had seen through her indifference and was warning her not to be disrespectful to the Imperial Master, so she quickly lowered her head.

At the same time, he refused weakly: "Your Majesty, it's so late, the Marquis's wife must have gone to bed, I am just a small official, so I won't disturb you."

Emperor Jingming deliberately opposed her.

"The Marquis's wife has not yet fallen asleep. She is outside the courtyard now. As the benefactor of the Marquis's mansion, it is reasonable for her to see you."

It was just verbal help in the court, and Ye Shengxin really didn't feel that he had any favor to the Marquis' Mansion.

Of course, it was the dead of night and he didn't want to see the marquis' wife who had frightened him to death.

He quickly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, it is already late at night. I have to attend court tomorrow, so I will go back first."

After saying that, he was about to leave.

Emperor Jingming said coldly: "Stop."

Ye Shengxin looked sad.

I really don't understand why an emperor would send people to abduct her to the mansion in the middle of the night, and why he would also make things difficult for her.

Yes, when Ye Shengxin saw the prince and the emperor here, she was sure that her coming to the Marquis' Mansion was the emperor's doing.

But now there was a real ghost here, and she was in no mood to explore the reasons why she was abducted here.

She couldn't leave now, so she could only bow and say, "Your Majesty, do you have any other instructions?"

"It's getting late and the dew is heavy. You should rest in the mansion today and go to court with Marquis Pingqing tomorrow."

"The prince and I will also stay here temporarily."

These two sentences determined Ye Shengxin's future arrangements.

After saying this, he turned around and left in a good mood.

"Lord Ye must be tired from running around and also frightened. You should rest early." The prince said kindly and left the room.

At this time, the old housekeeper brought the boiled sedative to Ye Shengxin.

Realizing that it would take another two hours before he could leave the same house with the marquis's wife, Ye Shengxin hardened his heart and drank the medicine in a few gulps.

After a stick of incense.

Ye Shengxin lay on the bed, thinking that he could sleep through the period with the help of the medicine.

As a result, she was still conscious when the old housekeeper came to call her to eat and go to court.

She even felt a cool breeze on her cheeks from time to time, giving her goose bumps all over her body.

"It's so annoying!" She stood up, rubbed her face, and complained in annoyance.

-

As for Emperor Jingming, after he and the Crown Prince went to the guest room arranged by the Marquis's wife, he forgot about the matter of the savage ancestors for a moment because he was too mentally shocked that night.

Just fell asleep like that.

So when the two met in front of the gate in the dream, with the same civil and military ministers, after a long silence, Prime Minister Shangguan, as the leader of all officials, took the lead in explaining the current situation.

As for those ministers who went to the ancestor, Emperor Jingming knew their intentions, so he would naturally not let them go.

"If you refuse to change after repeated admonitions, you will be fined half a year's salary. If you do it again, you will be resigned and return home!"

The ministers who were stopped outside the door were all selected to support reforming the fate of women, and they had no objection to Emperor Jingming's handling of the matter.

After this matter was dealt with, everyone judged based on the previous experience that it would take them another two days to get out.

Although there will be no reincarnation of grains and hunger this time, I really don’t know what to do for a moment.

At this time, the prince sighed and said:

"Father, most of the civil and military officials are gathered here. This is considered a court meeting. Let's take this opportunity to discuss the matter of the Imperial Master."

National Division?

Prime Minister Shangguan looked at Emperor Jingming and frowned deeply: "Your Majesty, are you going to appoint a national teacher?"

Zhang Liang stepped forward and said in a vigilant tone, "Your Majesty, who is this imperial teacher?"

After four days, Rong Ping, who had no clues about his wife, put aside his worries and asked, "Your Majesty, are you ready to let the Imperial Master attend the court and participate in government affairs?"

The position of imperial preceptor is very special. Not only Ye Shengxin is on guard against it, but also the civil and military ministers.

It is true that according to historical records, there have been precedents of national masters causing harm to the people and the country.

Speaking of this, Emperor Jingming looked at Rong Ping with a smile and said, "My dear Rong, the national teacher I am going to appoint will be very kind to Madam Hou."

"Is it Master Ye?!!!"

Rong Ping and Rong Anle reacted and spoke at the same time.

"Your Majesty, has my mother (Yayun) returned?" the two asked anxiously again.
