"Reporting to your majesty, I've already dealt with everything in the disaster area." Yu Lingjing knelt in front of the emperor and said word by word. There was no expression on his face.

"Oh, tell me what happened." "Your majesty is looking down at him from above, his fingers slowly playing with his white beard." Sit down in the chair next to us, and we'll talk slowly. "

"Thank you, your majesty, for just encountering a few small unforeseen events." Yu Lingjing stood up and sat on a nearby chair. Very soon, a palace maid brought a cup of tea and placed it beside her.

"What change?" The emperor's old eyes suddenly shone with light. No one would be stupid enough to do such a thing.

"Since someone poisoned the well water." I didn't have any plans to tell the emperor about the robbery because she didn't want him to know that the emperor had helped him. If the emperor knew about this, I'm afraid the official's house would suffer quite a bit. After all, anyone could be an imperial merchant, and since ancient times, the emperor had been suspicious.

"Did you find out who it was?" The expression on the emperor's face didn't seem interested in this matter. After all, it had already been resolved.

"This humble subject is incompetent and has yet to find out who it was, but I'm afraid there are only a few people who could poison this humble subject, right?" Yu Ling Jing took a sip of the tea beside his hand and spoke slowly.

"Alright, I understand. Then how did you get rid of him?" This simple sentence caused the Emperor's heart to surge with emotions. There were probably only a few people in this world who had the guts and the ability to poison under the eyes of the Regent. Moreover, it seemed that his son was the only one that his royal brother had offended. The emperor glanced at Yu Lingjing. It seemed like his royal brother didn't intend to obtain the throne. Otherwise, he could use this matter to make a big fuss and drag the crown prince into the water.

"I have to say, experts live in the countryside. There was a woman there who was skilled in medicine and had helped me quite a bit." Yu Lingjing knew the emperor had guessed wrongly, so he didn't say anything more and changed the subject. Of course, he didn't plan to tell the emperor about Poison Saint's existence. He didn't want to leave any evidence in the hands of this old fox.

"Is that so? What about the girl? "Why didn't you come here to claim credit?" The Emperor temporarily put aside the suspicion he had towards the crown prince. He suddenly became interested in this girl. What kind of girl would he need to make the ice-cold Regent praise her?

"That girl didn't want to come to the capital." Yu Lingjing said lightly, intending to pass the message. Actually, he just wanted to end the conversation with the Emperor as soon as possible. He couldn't help but feel particularly uncomfortable sitting here.

"Alright, then I'll give you this tomorrow. You can leave for the last time. Have a good rest." His Majesty waved his hand, gesturing for Yu Lingjing to step down. He didn't want to talk too much with an overly intelligent brother like his. Because that was really a troublesome matter.

"Thank you, my lord!" Yu Ling Jing thanked him and quickly retreated. You have no idea what kind of words the Crown Prince would use to mock him when he sees him in the imperial court tomorrow.

It was still dawn when Yu Ling Jing changed into his court uniform and rushed to the main hall. However, he had to admit that he was not sure if he was unlucky, or if his luck was too good. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the imperial court, he met the crown prince. Naturally, the Crown Prince had seen him long ago. Yu Ling Jing simply stood there, unmoving. The wind gently blew against his clothes, giving him a domineering feeling.

"Emperor Uncle truly has great ability. He came back in such a short time." The crown prince quickly walked to his side and spoke with a tone of mockery. There was also anger that could easily be detected by others. Yu Lingjing suddenly felt that he treated this nephew of his as a worthy opponent. Although he had many tricks up his sleeve, he couldn't help but reveal his ambition.

"Not at all, not even the Emperor's men." Yu Ling Jing didn't mind continuing his fight with the crown prince. Saying this and that. If he didn't know how to say these words, then he would have died in those plots over ten years ago.

"Weren't you also sent by the Emperor?" The crown prince revealed a mocking expression. It was very uncomfortable. Actually, they said that the two of them looked a little similar between the brows. It was just that one of them had been in the battlefield for a long time and had a kind of tough temperament, while the other was immersed in the palace's schemes and tricks, which were especially feminine.

"Then, Crown Prince, just treat it as me praising myself." Yu Lingjing's voice was cold. She was clearly being too polite, but she made the Crown Prince especially angry.

"You're really not being modest at all …" The Crown Prince felt that he really couldn't win against this uncle of his. Although he repeatedly lost in front of him, because of his inborn conceit, he didn't feel like he lost to Yu Lingjing. He felt that he was just lucky and that one day he would get rid of him.

"This is such a good habit. It's similar to the Crown Prince's studies …" After saying this, Yu Ling Jing walked into the court without looking back. Only Yufeng stood there, glaring at his back.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" The official knelt on the ground and shouted. It had to be said that this kind of scene was enough to make one's blood boil. No wonder the crown prince had always wanted to get his hands on this … However, as the saying goes, one cannot eat hot tofu in a hurry.

"I'm in a particularly good mood. Do you know why?" The Emperor, seated on the Dragon Throne, smiled so much that his eyes narrowed. However, he did not intend to let the civil and military officials answer this question.

"Our war god, the Regent, solved the disaster in such a short amount of time." His Majesty's eyes were full of praise as he cast a gaze at Yu Ling Jing, but it was difficult to fathom his determination. Who knew if his expression was actually fake?

"This is truly a matter worth celebrating!" Some of the officials who liked to flatter hurriedly said … Actually, these words were nonsense …

"I wonder what kind of reward royal brother would like?" The elder sister of the Phoenix Mountain Range completely ignored the official, smiling as she spoke to Yu Ling Jing.

"This matter will be decided by the emperor," Yu Lingjing said with a bow, but her voice was neither servile nor overbearing.

"Okay, I'll give you ten thousand taels of gold, one for the mansion, and five hundred Dendrobium Night Pearls, each consisting of three hundred silks." Oh... Give me two more beauties. " It had to be said that each and every one of the emperors was exceptionally generous. However, in order to win over the hearts and stabilize his position, this was nothing.

"I don't have any objections to the ones before the emperor, but in the end, it's better to just forget about these two." Yu Lingjing frowned. This month, the civilian police were famous throughout the country for not being close to women. However, it was said that he had a bosom friend …

"Haha, I almost forgot. In a few more months, my royal brother will get married soon?" The emperor seemed to have thought of something especially big. In fact, he didn't even take this matter to heart. Otherwise, how could he have almost forgotten about it?

"Thank you, your majesty." Yu Lingjing bowed. He only suddenly felt that the matter of him being ordered to marry Qi Wan County was the best thing that the Emperor had done.

"Uncle Wang, now that you have received the reward and have also gained the liking of the people in the disaster area, you are really, really, quite good." The Crown Prince said in a cold tone. No one present was an idiot; they all knew what he meant. This meant that the Regent had been rewarded with a disaster and had won over the people. He was most likely planning to rebel one day.

"Hehe, I don't care about this kind of thing. I'm afraid you care about the crown prince too much, right?" Yu Lingjing was not to be outdone. In the past, he had let his nephew go to all sorts of trouble, but now it seemed that there was no need for him to endure any longer. After all, he was easily bullied by others.

"Are you saying that you don't care about the things bestowed by my royal father, or do you not care about the commoners?" The Crown Prince gritted his teeth. The last time he had failed again and again, it was as if a fire was burning in his heart. Even in the imperial court, he had no choice but to restrain himself.

"Crown Prince, you are overthinking it. I am referring to the people's hearts and minds." Yu Lingjing's face was filled with disdain. When the crown prince saw his expression, he felt even more uncomfortable and wanted to retort. However, the Emperor interrupted him.

"Can the two of us not ruin my mood?" The Emperor frowned as he looked at the crown prince. His son's ambition was simply too great. If he didn't properly discipline him, he might even be able to force the emperor into a palace. His little brother would probably start as well …

"This official knows his wrongs." Yu Lingjing lowered his head and said lightly.

"Your son knows his crimes." The Crown Prince forcefully swallowed the words that were about to leave his mouth.

His Majesty looked at the eunuch by his side. The eunuch understood immediately. He used his high-pitched voice to shout.

"If you have anything to say, please play. If you have nothing to say, leave the court!"

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" The civil and military officials knelt down once again.

The white pigeon on the roof jumped at the sound and flew away. A white feather gently fell from the sky, and Yu Lingjing walked out of the hall and caught it. He put the feather in the sun and looked at it again and again. He suddenly thought of Qi Wan County, that soft smile that was like feathers. Then, a warm smile appeared on his face as well. The officials who passed by him could not help but feel especially surprised and began whispering. They could not help but guess that the social network, which had never seen her smile before, was staring at a feather and laughing. What had happened? Was the prince confused by all this scheming and scheming?
