After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Manager Cen was extremely shocked: "Master Ji, didn't you leave?"

"Yes!"

Ji Li glared at Meng Qianqian fiercely, "How do you know that I didn't leave?"

Meng Qianqian spread her hands: "I guessed it."

Ji Li's face darkened: "...Is this also possible?"

Meng Qianqian said, "Are you going to tell it inside or here? Don't blame me for not reminding you. Everyone knows that you kidnapped Princess Wanping. There are so many people watching your whereabouts. Don't regret it if you tell it outside."

Behind the wall, in the alleys, on the streets...anywhere a person can stand is filled with people sneaking around to watch the fun.

Ji Li was not afraid of his own shadow, and said confidently: "When did I kidnap Princess Wanping? It was clearly her own will!"

Meng Qianqian raised her eyebrows: "So, you are admitting that you two eloped?"

Ji Li clenched his fists and said angrily again: "What do you mean by elopement? That's not happening!"

Meng Qianqian asked calmly, "Did you two leave the enclosure without permission, without even saying hello?"

Ji Li: Who should I greet when hunting a tiger? How should I greet him? What if someone steals my prey?

Meng Qianqian: "After you two left the enclosure, did you continue to head south?"

Ji Li: The compass is broken!

Meng Qianqian: "Did you tell Princess Wanping that having you by her side is enough, and even Chang Kuan doesn't need to follow her?"

Ji Li: Chang Kuan is injured!!!

The common people, who had originally only dared to peek from afar, now mustered up the courage to crowd in front of the gate of the Governor's Mansion.

Every time Meng Qianqian posed a soul-searching question, voices of sudden enlightenment could be heard from the crowd.

"Well."

"Well."

"Oh."

Ji Li: “……!!”

Meng Qianqian said: "Give me an explanation."

Ji Li asked: "What explanation?"

Meng Qianqian said seriously: "It's the wedding."

Ji Li choked: "I..."

The people shouted in unison: "Wedding! Wedding! Wedding!"

Ji Li jumped up and down: "Shut up, shut up! Shut up for me, Shuaiwei!"

At this moment, a carriage slowly stopped behind the crowd.

Eunuch Fu got off the carriage, waved his whisk, and said in a loud voice: "The imperial edict has arrived--"

The people hurriedly made way for them.

Meng Qianqian walked down the stairs.

Eunuch Fu walked up to Ji Li and unfolded the imperial edict in his hand: "Ji Li, the Rooster Guard, is both talented and beautiful, and has unparalleled martial arts. He has made great contributions at the border. I hereby grant him the marriage to Princess Wanping and make him the Duke of Xiang. The marriage will be completed today."

"Youji Guard, accept the order!"

Ji Li: "I won't answer!"

Everyone gasped.

Brother, don't be so stubborn. If you disobey my order, you will be beheaded!

Meng Qianqian said politely to Eunuch Fu: "I will try to persuade him."

Eunuch Fu smiled and said, "Thank you, Madam Lu."

Rules are dead, but people are alive. Princess Wanping is going to marry a prince consort, which is a great joyous event.

The retired emperor said that as long as the prince consort didn't kill anyone or burn anything, it didn't matter if he cursed a few times.

Meng Qianqian said to Ji Li: "You really don't want to accept the order?"

Ji Li said unruly, "No."

Meng Qianqian said: "If you don't answer, I'll use force."

Ji Li chuckled and said, "Are you trying to use my weakness to threaten me again? I'm telling you, this trick won't work!"

If he disobeyed the order, he would be beheaded. If he wanted to survive, he had to leave the Great Zhou.

Since everyone has left, why do you still care about the picture of your naked butt?

One trick is enough to conquer the world, is that wishful thinking, little girl?

"Ugh."

Meng Qianqian sighed, "If you don't accept my toast, you're forcing me to use my best tactics, Eunuch Fu, I'll take the imperial edict for him."

Ji Li said: "Why would you answer it for me? Who are you to me?"

I am your commander-in-chief!

Meng Qianqian took the imperial edict and said to Ji Li, "Do you want to get into the sedan chair by yourself, or do you want me to have you tied up and put into the sedan chair?"

Ji Li smiled coldly: "Kidnap me? Little Tiger, you don't think that your mediocre skills can do anything to me, right? Lu Yuan and I returned to the capital because I wanted to come back, not because he kidnapped me. Even if the two of you join forces, you are no match for me!"

Tan Er was eating a candied haws when she suddenly looked up at the sky: "There are so many cows in the sky!"

"Who said I want to fight you?"

Meng Qianqian took Tan'er by the hand and turned to go into the mansion, "Grandpa——"

Ji Li trembled!

Miao King? ! !

The Miao King swaggered out of the Governor's Mansion and said, "My grandson's wife is here!"

Ji Li gritted his teeth secretly. King Miao and he were not in the same realm. Even though he was the leader of the younger generation, he was definitely not good enough in front of an old monster like King Miao!

Little girl!

You have a lot of tricks!

Humph, if he can’t win, can’t he just run away?

Ji Li turned and left.

Meng Qianqian didn't even turn her head: "Brother——"

Chen Long descended from the sky and blocked Ji Li's way.

Ji Li's hair stood on end: Oh my god!

"When did you return to Beijing? Didn't you go with Yu Zichuan to investigate the news of Qianji Pavilion?"

Chen Long: "Just got back."

Ji Li fell to the ground with both knees!

Oh, heaven and earth, without the Feng Shui compass, I am really unlucky everywhere.

-

Next is Princess Wanping.

Meng Qianqian can be tough with Ji Li, but she can't do the same to Princess Wanping.

Princess Wanping has high standards and is extremely picky. She is kind-hearted, but precisely because of her kindness, she cannot be forced.

You can move people with emotion and enlighten them with reason.

But thinking of Princess Wanping's stubborn character, Meng Qianqian suddenly felt extremely troubled.

"Sister, it's a reverse curse!"

"This...is not good."

Tan Er said confidently: "This is called - obeying the emperor's order to cast a poison!"

Meng Qianqian: “…”

Meng Qianqian would never put a curse on Princess Wanping.

If Princess Wanping refuses to agree, the marriage will have to be cancelled.

"The Emperor is old, and the only person he is worried about is you. He hopes to find you a consort who can spend the rest of your life with you. How pitiful are the hearts of parents in the world..."

Although it was a bit exaggerated, it was indeed the emperor's intention to marry Princess Wanping off.

Furthermore, Ji Li and Princess Wanping were a good match both in terms of status and horoscope.

The fact that their horoscopes are compatible does not mean that Ji Li will no longer be unlucky after following the princess, but that the princess is not affected by his bad luck when she is with him.

I was just saying it casually at the time, and I never thought it would become a prophecy.

Princess Wanping was the legitimate daughter of the royal family and the legitimate daughter of the empress, and was able to suppress Ji Li's fate of five disadvantages and three shortcomings.

The Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Household Department worked for a month and decorated the princess's mansion with lights and decorations.

Meng Qianqian took Tan'er off the carriage.

"Braised pork! Braised pork!"

Tan Er entered the mansion excitedly, "Princess! It's the one-month period! I want to eat braised pork——"

Meng Qianqian went to Princess Wanping's boudoir.

She took a deep breath and was about to start her eloquence.

As soon as I entered the house, I was dazzled by the sunset glow in front of me.

Princess Wanping was seen wearing a bright red wedding gown, a golden phoenix crown on her head, and holding a round fan in her hand, sitting quietly in front of a bronze mirror.

Meng Qianqian suspected that she had taken the wrong path, so she went out and then came back in, staring at the familiar yet unfamiliar face.

What is familiar is the facial features, what is unfamiliar is the makeup.

Princess Wanping's previous clothing was too childish and lacked her charm, but now she wears a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe, with dark eyebrows and red lips, and looks gentle, graceful and extremely beautiful.

Meng Qianqian was deeply amazed.

Such a princess must be a beauty unrivalled in beauty.

"What are you here for?"

Princess Wanping asked calmly.

Meng Qianqian came back to her senses, calmly put the engagement letter they had signed into her sleeve, and stepped forward to bow to Princess Wanping: "Greetings, Princess. I heard that you have returned to the capital, so I came here to congratulate you on your wedding."

I racked my brains to think of a hundred things to say along the way, but in the end, the wedding dress was changed?

Are you so easy to talk to?

Then what’s the point of me worrying about your marriage?

If I had known earlier, I would have tied up Ji Li and sent him to your house, so as to avoid that death——

Princess Wanping glanced at her in the bronze mirror and said, "You came so early. I thought you were here to add some makeup to my princess."

Meng Qianqian blinked: "That's fine."

Princess Wanping looked at her with a chill.

Meng Qianqian said calmly: "I mean, of course we have to add makeup to the princess!"

Princess Wanping stretched out her hand.

Meng Qianqian smiled slightly: "Xiaojiu can't take it, he's on the way."

Very good, add a little makeup.

Meng Qianqian cleared her throat: "Princess, you and Youjiwei..."

Princess Wanping sighed: "The imperial decree has been issued, what can I do?"

Meng Qianqian's mouth twitched: Is it really because of the imperial edict? Are you sure you don't like Ji Li?

Meng Qianqian touched her chin.

If you think about it carefully, Ji Li is indeed not bad. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the best guard.

Furthermore, he has great martial arts skills, a healthy body, and a large and flexible penis...

Ahem, she doesn’t know that.

Princess Wanping said slowly, "I am getting married soon. Finally, I don't have to compete with you for Lu Yuan. You should be happy."

Meng Qianqian whispered: "I really want you to come and grab it."

Princess Wanping: “…”

Meng Qianqian: "I'm kidding."

The makeup girl finished the last stroke of makeup for Princess Wanping, and Princess Wanping said to her, "Go away, you too."

The makeup girl and the palace maids left the room respectfully.

Princess Wanping turned around from her stool and looked at Meng Qianqian seriously: "Meng Xiaojiu, I am getting married soon. I only want to ask you one question. You must answer me truthfully and you are not allowed to lie."

Meng Qianqian said seriously: "Princess, please speak."

Princess Wanping said, "I have heard about Prime Minister Xun's affairs. I know that it was not all the work of the Governor's Office that brought him down. It was my father who secretly supported him and wanted to get rid of him."

Meng Qianqian asked: "What does the princess want to ask?"

Princess Wanping paused and asked, "Is the charge against Prime Minister Xun true? Is it because the good bows are put away when the birds are gone, and the running dogs are cooked when the rabbits are dead? Or is it a personal vendetta?"

Personal vendetta?

It does make sense to say that when the birds are all gone, the bows are put away; when the rabbit is dead, the running dogs are cooked.

But the emperor is not that kind of person.

Meng Qianqian took a few steps forward, knelt on one knee, and looked at her steadily: "Princess, the emperor is a wise ruler."

Princess Wanping asked, "Meng Xiaojiu, how much do you know about my father?"

Meng Qianqian asked doubtfully: "Princess, what do you mean?"

"nothing."

Princess Wanping lowered her eyes.

Meng Qianqian could see that she was worried: "Princess, if you trust Xiaojiu, Xiaojiu is willing to listen attentively."

Princess Wanping was silent.

After a while, she seemed to have made some important decision and whispered, "When I was very young, there was a rumor in the palace that my mother had a close relationship with Prime Minister Xun."

Meng Qianqian was stunned. How could this happen?

Princess Wanping recalled: "My mother died in the second year after my brother was made crown prince. At that time, I was just eight years old and my brother was five. I remember that my mother was in good health, but suddenly she fell ill and did not allow anyone to visit her. Not long after, she died of illness."

"Some people say that she was secretly executed by my father because he discovered her affair with Prime Minister Xun and suspected that my brother was Prime Minister Xun's bastard. The reason why my father did not abolish my brother's position as crown prince was because Prime Minister Xun was secretly competing with my father."

"My father wanted the King of Chu to inherit the throne, but do you know why the King of Chu was kept outside the palace? Didn't my father tell you that it was the King of Chu's mother who didn't want to bring her son back to the palace?"

Meng Qianqian said: "Yes."

Princess Wanping said, "What I heard was that my father had always been on guard against Prime Minister Xun, fearing that the King of Chu would fall into his hands, so he raised his son at the border. Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Xun still found out. For the sake of my brother's throne, Prime Minister Xun secretly eliminated the King of Chu's family and removed the biggest stumbling block to his throne."

Meng Qianqian frowned.

Since the prince is Prime Minister Xun’s biological son, why did Prime Minister Xun send Lu Yuan and Luo San to sneak into the prince’s mansion?

Lu Yuan has been protecting the prince, and Luo San... although he instigated the prince to kill the King of Chu's family, he neither betrayed the prince nor used the matter to threaten the prince.

The prince frightened himself to death, he was not assassinated by Prime Minister Xun.

In other words, Prime Minister Xun never intended to take the prince's life.

He was using the prince, but on the other hand, he was also tempering the prince's ruthlessness.

If you want to be an emperor, you cannot be too kind-hearted.

But the prince is too weak.

The retired emperor wanted to protect the King of Chu and let him inherit the throne, but the King of Chu and his family died in the struggle for imperial power.

Prime Minister Xun wanted the prince to become a decisive and ruthless person like the King of Chu, but the result was counterproductive and the prince died because of his "good intentions".

If all this is true, it is really sad.

Soon, Meng Qianqian shook her head. This was too absurd.

How could I imagine so much based on just a few words from Princess Wanping?

After experiencing so many conspiracies and intrigues, all kinds of absurd speculations come into play.

"Princess, how credible are these things you said?"

Princess Wanping said: "I don't know, you can just listen to it as a story."

At this time, the matchmaker's voice was heard outside: "Princess, the auspicious time has come! We have to go pick up the prince consort!"

Princess Wanping stood up gently.

The matchmaker and the female official entered.

The female official held Princess Wanping's hand and said, "Princess, it's snowing outside."

"Ah."

Princess Wanping nodded slightly, and with the help of the female official, she moved lightly with lotus steps, filling the room with flowing rosy light.

Meng Qianqian stared at her back without blinking.

As she stepped out of the door, Princess Wanping suddenly stopped, tilted her head, and glanced behind her: "Meng Xiaojiu, I only told you today's story."

Meng Qianqian smiled and said, "Xiaojiu was just stunned by the princess's beauty and lost his focus for a moment, forgetting to listen to the princess's story."

Princess Wanping looked at the silent snowfall and said, "That's a pity. I'm too lazy to say it a second time."
