Joy of Life: Rebirth of the Second Prince, Inviting Emperor Qing to Die

Chapter 397 Humane Rewards

Originally, everyone present thought that there would be a fierce conflict between Lin Xianghui and Fan Jian, who had just been promoted and given a title.

After all, one of them is the leader of the Lin Party, who has the final say in the court.

The other one is the newly promoted leader of the Fan Party.

The presence of these two people will definitely make them incompatible in the court in the future.

As a result, the two people did not fight or have an argument.

After Lin Ruofu said the word "congratulations", there was nothing else to say.

Fan Jian responded symbolically and said nothing more.

Soon, the whole scene fell into silence.

The silence was a little scary.

However, the two men did not speak, but they did not leave either. They just stood there and watched silently.

The scene became even more embarrassing.

It was as if two people were about to fight.

Lin Ruofu did not move, and the members of Lin's party also stood where they were, not daring to move forward.

The same is true for Fan Jian.

In this way, most of the officials who were originally walking stayed where they were.

Only a small number of officials who were insignificant in the court were not affected.

After a while.

However, some officials could not help but speak up immediately, breaking the silence.

"The weather is nice today. Are you interested in going out for a drink, colleagues?"

After the atmosphere was broken again, someone began to agree: "Yes, today is indeed a good day for drinking."

"Come on, let's go over and have a drink."

"Count me in, I haven't had a drink in a long time."

"That's right, this weather is perfect for drinking."

……

Soon, the originally silent and awkward scene was replaced by lively noise.

At this time, Lin Ruofu laughed and said, "In that case, I'll join in the fun."

When an official saw Lin Ruofu speaking, he immediately smiled and said, "If Prime Minister Lin can do me the honor, that would be great."

"Let's go, today's my treat, we won't leave until we're drunk!"

Afterwards, Lin Ruofu took everyone away.

However, there was a small number of officials who were already on good terms with Fan Jian, so they naturally stayed by his side.

"Master Fan, congratulations on your promotion."

“That’s cause for celebration.”

"Master Fan, let's go have a drink too. I'll treat you today, so we can take this opportunity to congratulate you."

Fan Jian did not refuse, but nodded and said, "Okay, you go first, I'll be there later."

Everyone immediately bowed to Fan Jian and said, "Then we will go over first. Sir Fan, please show us your presence when the time comes."

Afterwards, these officials also left.

After pondering for a moment, Fan Jian turned and left, heading towards another road.

……

After a while.

In front of the entrance of the "Zhenghua Gate" of the imperial palace, Fan Jian was pushing an iron wheelchair and walking slowly forward.

Chen Pingping, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said with a smile, "You are now the Marquis's man, but you are still helping me push the wheelchair. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Fan Jian said gloomily, "Stop talking nonsense."

"If I help you push the cart, what does it have to do with me?"

"Even if I'm an ordinary citizen, can't I push the cart for you?"

Chen Pingping smiled and said, "How could you be an ordinary citizen? With your ability, it is only a matter of time before you are promoted to a higher position." "But I didn't expect that our little emperor would promote you so quickly."

Fan Jian also nodded and said, "I didn't expect that either."

"It seems that our Majesty has already thought about this matter a long time ago, and today he is just using the matter of collecting food and fodder as an excuse."

"But it's fine this way. It's only a matter of time anyway."

Chen Pingping added: "That being said, are you sure you can raise food and fodder for hundreds of thousands of troops within a month?"

“This is not a small amount.”

Fan Jian sneered: "Don't worry, I have already made arrangements."

"Moreover, anyone who dares to disobey the new emperor's major events since he ascended the throne will be punished."

"The most important thing is, I won't be able to sleep or eat well unless I destroy Northern Qi."

Chen Pingping nodded thoughtfully and said, "Very good, it should be so."

"Let's go. I'll go back and help you think of a solution."

Fan Jian said: "No need, do you think that my position as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue is just for eating and drinking?"

"That's the best." Chen Pingping said with a smile.

……

the other side.

In "Feng Xi Palace", Ye Ling'er and Lin Wan'er had already gotten up, washed, and dressed up.

They completely changed their previous girlish hairstyle to women's attire, and the accessories they wore on their heads were still the same.

According to the palace rules, after getting married, the concubine must first offer tea and pay respects to the elders.

So, Ye Ling'er and Lin Wan'er went to offer tea to Concubine Shu and the Queen Mother.

When the two were walking on the road, Lin Wan'er was used to it and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, she had grown up in the palace.

However, it was Ye Ling'er's first time entering the palace, and she had a completely different feeling.

Especially when facing the Queen Mother, he completely lost his usual aura.

Until they came back, Ye Ling'er had not yet recovered from the feeling just now.

After a while, Li Chengze had returned to "Fengqi Palace".

When he walked into the bedroom, he found that there was no one inside. Neither Ye Ling'er nor Lin Wan'er was there.

Li Chengze then remembered that according to the palace rules, the two of them needed to offer tea and show respect to their elders.

I guess he hasn't come back yet at this hour.

Li Chengze did not go to have breakfast, but came to the bedroom and waited there.

Soon, the system responded.

[This is the sign-in location. Do you want to sign in? ]

"Sign in." Li Chengze said directly.

[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward of a "Puppet Clone". ]

[“Puppet clone”: can transform into a puppet clone based on the host’s essence and blood. It cannot have its own consciousness and can be controlled by the host at will. It can also know the things around it according to the puppet clone’s instructions. ]

Whoops!

After hearing the system's explanation, Li Chengze understood what was going on.

This reward is simply humane and it is what he wants most.

Originally, he was just thinking about how to go to Northern Qi to solve the problem of the little emperor.

Wouldn't the "puppet clone" that is rewarded now be able to solve this problem?

At that time, he would be able to leave his puppet clone in Nanqing and lead his men to Beiqi.

Moreover, I can also know what is happening around me based on the perception of the puppet clone.

I just don't know if there is any distance limit between this "puppet clone" and the original body.

Don’t let the time come when he leaves his “puppet clone” in the palace and suddenly loses contact when he goes to Northern Qi.

Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
