The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Chapter 1096 A Little Abacus

The system was speechless. When it tried to pull the kitten back and have a proper talk with it, the kitten had already left a message and disappeared.

The system chuckled as it looked at its host across the panel.

Seeing the system like this, Liang Chongyue still offered a word of comfort:

"The kitten is just being stubborn. Xiang Yu is in the palace. If you don't have anything else to do, keep an eye on Minglang for me. Don't come back yet."

The system nodded obediently, and Liang Chongyue hung up the connection.

Xue Wan wanted to hug and kiss the kitten properly, wondering how His Highness had taken care of it.

The fur is so smooth, it feels so good to touch.

Xue Wan searched around but couldn't find the kitten. She stood there, holding her head with one hand.

"Wait a minute, the kitten was just playing with the puppy, how did it all disappear? Could it be that I've had too much to drink and my eyes are playing tricks on me?"

Minglang heard the sound and came over, but didn't see the kitten.

Minglang looked at the puppy and, after receiving a signal from the puppy's eyes, understood.

It looks like the kitten has gone off to attend to its own business.

It's also possible that he went out to hide from Xue Wan.

"The kitten might have gone out for a stroll, don't worry about it. If you've had too much to drink, why don't you go back to your room and sleep?"

Xue Wan waved her hand:

"I'm not drunk at all, Your Highness. You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this meal today."

Xue Wan didn't want to talk about those messy things at home anymore; it would be embarrassing to talk about them too much.

She just wanted to be with His Highness and her sisters; she didn't have to do anything just to be with them.

She felt relaxed just sitting there blankly.

It's more than a million times better than staying at home.

"Then let's hold the puppy. I think I just saw the puppy playing rock-paper-scissors with the kitten. Now that the kitten isn't here, let's play rock-paper-scissors with the puppy."

The system never expected that it too would be unable to escape this calamity.

Only when Xue Wan held the kitten in her arms did the system understand the kitten's helplessness earlier.

The creature was unusually large; when Xue Wan held it, it could only stand beside her.

He forcibly accepted Xue Wan's hug.

"Little dog, let's play rock-paper-scissors together."

The system originally thought that since the kittens had all left, there would be no one to play with them.

Now that Xue Wan has come to us, we can't blame her for being unreasonable later.

Just as I was about to agree, I heard a clear cough.

The system, on its deathbed, jolted awake from its dream.

Then it dawned on him that ever since he was exposed in front of Minglang and his mother, he had become increasingly less like a dog.

The outstretched hand can't be pulled back.

Seeing Xue Wan throw a punch, the system directly pressed Xue Wan's hand down with its own.

Prove through your actions that you don't like playing this game.

I don't want to play this game with Xue Wan either.

"Let's take Xue Wan back to her room to sleep first. She's already playing with the puppy. If she drinks a couple more drinks later, she won't be able to control herself."

When Li Xianqing heard Jiang Jiaoyun say this, he nimbly ran behind Xue Wan and smacked her on the back of the neck.

Xue Wan collapsed in pain onto the puppy.

The system originally intended to run away, but it didn't expect everyone to be so ruthless.

The steps that had already begun to run were pulled back.

"Why don't you talk to Xue Wan properly? If you do this, she'll make a scene tomorrow morning."

Li Xianqing picked the person up and carried them into the familiar house.

Leave a message:

"She's upset. If we don't knock her out now, she won't feel good even if she gets drunk tonight. Either way, she'll feel uncomfortable, so she might as well get some sleep first."

Minglang and Jiang Jiaoyun exchanged a glance and felt that Li Xianqing's words made some sense, so they stopped paying attention to it.

"So, His Majesty really agreed?"

Minglang nodded to Jiang Jiaoyun.

"When Mother told me, I was worried that you all had official duties to attend to and that it would be inconvenient for you, but I didn't expect this..."

Minglang didn't say the rest, but Jiang Jiaoyun understood.

"I don't mind. Accompanying Your Highness on a trip will broaden my horizons."

Jiang Jiaoyun watched Li Xianqing carrying Xue Wan away and whispered to Minglang:

"But it seems that Xue Wan was prepared long ago; she can't stay in that house for even a moment longer."

"And then there's Xiaoqing, the whole family of good-for-nothings. They were just waiting for her to stand up so they could find someone else to suck their blood. That's why she asked for permission to go to the countryside to help farmers."

How could a proud man like Li Xianqing, who had acquired a wealth of knowledge, be content to stay in the countryside during the prime of his life?

It is a loss for the capital and for the Great Xia Dynasty that she did not shine in the capital.

"As for Xiang Ke, Your Highness has even less to worry about. She's probably dreaming of Your Highness coming to pick her up as soon as possible."

After finishing the drinks tonight, Minglang understood everyone's situation; most of them had no choice.

During the period leading up to the new year, she was busy assisting her mother with government affairs and didn't have time to learn about these matters.

Of her four study companions, only Jiang Jiaoyun is living the best life.

She was the only daughter in her family and the most pampered youngest daughter.

Their home wasn't as difficult to manage as the other families'.

It's not too bad.

However, it's not so easy for someone to shoulder the responsibility of being the pillar of the family.

Everyone else was burdened by their own worries, but Jiang Jiaoyun was the only one who was truly exhausted.

"Alright, everyone, after you wake up tomorrow, please get ready. I still need to ask the Empress Dowager for permission to reassign your original positions."

Xue Wan is alright; she was originally trained in General Xue's military camp.

All Xue Wan needs to do is say a word.

Li Xianqing went to the countryside to help farmers, and her official position was not irreplaceable.

Now only Jiang Jiaoyun is left; she works in the Ministry of Personnel.

You can sense how much the Empress Dowager values ​​her, and how much the Jiang family values ​​and expects from her.

"My position was originally intended for someone else, Your Highness need not worry. Just speak to His Majesty, and the Minister of Personnel will fill the position himself."

When Jiang Jiaoyun went there, she didn't exactly take someone else's spot.

However, with her presence, she filled the last vacant position in the Ministry of Personnel.

Now that she's gone, her position is vacant. After the New Year's morning court session, the Minister of Personnel, such a shrewd person, will be in charge.

We will definitely be able to fill the gap.

All your hard work this past year has been for nothing.

Jiang Jiaoyun couldn't wait to go out and wander around.

Ever since she met His Highness, she has never had a peaceful day.

Her original plan wasn't necessarily to become the backbone of the family.

She is indeed an only child, but she has brothers both above and below her.

She was forced into this situation by being pushed into it.

Being able to go out and wander around is a pleasure for her.

"So Your Highness, please don't feel that you've delayed Jiaoyun and that she can't accompany you on this trip. Jiaoyun's life is truly meaningless."

Jiang Jiaoyun was already thinking about what she should bring.

It would be a good opportunity to go back and extort money from her father, forcing him to hand over all the personnel he had deployed in various prefectures and counties of the Great Xia Dynasty over the years.
