Chapter 14 Hu Liena's Heart Fluttering! The Summoning of Emperor Xueye
Tian Dou City.
The Eastern Palace.
"Your Highness, Huliena is here again."
Zhao Gao approached Ying Zheng and spoke in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng paused slightly, then nodded, put down the memorial he had finished reviewing, and said, "Let her be!"
This is Hu Liena's third visit.
Ever since she was forced to kneel by Ying Zheng's shout last time, Hu Liena seems to have developed masochistic tendencies, coming every day for the second and third days.
They didn't do much after they arrived; they just wandered around the palace and watched Ying Zheng review memorials.
Ying Zheng had nothing to say about this.
If she wants to see it, let her see it.
Hu Liena arrived at the East Palace Hall with practiced ease, and saw Ying Zheng still reviewing memorials at his desk, without any surprise.
She's been here for so many days, and this guy is either reviewing memorials or reviewing memorials.
Many times, Hu Liena wondered, "Is this guy out of his mind?!"
Are there really that many things to deal with?!
Yesterday, Hu Liena even asked Ying Zheng if he was tired!
Ying Zheng retorted, "It doesn't matter if I'm tired or not; the world can't be tired any more."
This sentence left Hu Liena speechless...
"Okay, okay!"
"You like to show off, huh? Let's see how long you can keep it up."
This is why Hu Liena has been coming every day these past few days.
"Your Highness, it's fine to come for exchange and learning. But we mustn't disturb you."
Seeing Hu Liena looking around, Zhao Gao whispered a reminder.
"I know."
Upon hearing this, Hu Liena nodded slightly.
Her gaze fell upon Ying Zheng, who was seven feet tall and slender. Although he was only twelve years old, his calm face seemed to carry an absolute determination, and his back was always straight, as if he never got tired.
The more you look, the more fascinated Hu Liena's beautiful eyes seem to become.
At that moment, Hu Liena seemed to feel that this guy was quite handsome and had a lot of charm.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"
"What am I thinking!"
Hu Liena blushed slightly and muttered to herself.
How could she possibly think this show-off is handsome and charming?
However, Hu Liena glanced at Ying Zheng again, seeing that he remained unmoved, seemingly unaffected, and continued to review one memorial after another.
Her heart was also wavering.
This guy, perhaps, is truly striving forward for that ideal he holds dear.
One hour passed, two hours passed, three hours passed...
Hu Liena sat there watching, while Ying Zheng tediously reviewed the documents without taking a break.
Not to mention Ying Zheng reviewing the memorials, even Hu Liena sitting next to him was exhausted.
However, Ying Zheng did not seem to be tired!
Hu Liena looked at Ying Zheng, whose hands began to tremble slightly. The scales beside him were piled with copper coins, but compared to the square stones on the other side, they were still a drop in the ocean.
The lunch on the table had been reheated several times, but he didn't touch it at all.
Hu Liena noticed that among Ying Zheng's jet-black hair, there were a few strands of white hair.
This guy...
She's only twelve years old, but she already has white hair.
A strange light flickered in Hu Liena's foxy eyes.
Perhaps... this guy is serious.
Thinking of this, Hu Liena's heart wavered slightly. After taking a deep look at Ying Zheng, she turned and left the hall.
Ying Zheng was completely unaware of this and continued reviewing the memorials.
After leaving the main hall, Hu Liena went out onto the street.
The streets of Tiandou City were bustling with activity. An old man selling pancakes was calling out his wares, and in the teahouses, someone was telling stories, while others were singing...
Hu Liena casually walked over to an old man selling pancakes nearby, bought a few pancakes, and asked him how life was going and if he could make ends meet.
Upon hearing this, the old man's eyes instantly gleamed as he looked at Hu Liena, who exuded aristocratic air and was exquisitely dressed: "Is this person not from our Heavenly Dou City, or even our Heavenly Dou Empire?"
Upon hearing this, Hu Liena showed a hint of surprise.
"Haha~! To be honest, our lives used to be just getting by. But ever since His Highness the Crown Prince took over the reins of government, our lives have really improved."
"Without the numerous exorbitant taxes and levies, and without the protection money collected by organized crime, tax revenue has been reduced by half."
"Originally, my son had no hope of getting married, but now he's engaged and will be getting married next month."
The old man's smile was simple and genuine.
Hu Liena could sense that he was telling the truth, and that his smile was genuine.
You can see the whole leopard from just one spot!
It's conceivable that this situation wasn't limited to this old man alone; it was likely the case throughout the entire Heavenly Dou Empire.
boom--
Upon realizing this, Hu Liena's mind went blank.
She knew that Ying Zheng was not just talking, but doing, and had already achieved results!
The old man continued to speak highly of Ying Zheng, but Hu Liena seemed not to hear him at all. Her expression was one of shock, confusion, and fear...
No wonder... no wonder even Qian Renxue seemed to have a good impression of this guy.
It seems that no one has ever shown such a heartfelt smile and such genuine worship for the Spirit Hall.
She stopped investigating and turned back to the branch hall of the Spirit Hall.
She needed to immediately write a letter back to the Spirit Hall headquarters to her teacher...
While Hu Liena was investigating Tiandou City, someone was secretly watching her.
Avalanche Mansion.
Avalanche's face was slightly gloomy, his blond hair fell down to partially cover his face, and a list was spread out in front of him.
His confidant stood opposite him and whispered, "Your Highness, Hu Liena went to the East Palace again and also took a stroll around Tiandou City."
Xue Beng's expression hardened slightly, and he clenched his fists.
"What is she doing?"
The confidant, upon hearing this, was also somewhat puzzled: "I'm not quite sure, but these past few days, she's been going to the East Palace every day, doing nothing but watching."
Upon hearing this, Xue Beng sneered, "It seems that even the people from the Spirit Hall have been fooled by him."
He stood up, looked out the window, and asked, "How are our men?"
"Three thousand iron cavalry are hidden outside the city, and five hundred elite soldiers are inside, awaiting only Your Highness's command!"
Upon hearing his confidant's words, Xue Beng's face revealed a cold glint: "Very good."
"Let them wait and see what the Spirit Hall plans. With the Spirit Hall's support, our chances of success will be much greater."
Upon hearing this, the confidant nodded slightly.
Late at night, in the Eastern Palace.
After Ying Zheng finished reviewing a memorial, he put in a copper coin.
Zhao Gao emerged from the shadows and slowly said to Ying Zheng, "Your Highness, Prince Xue Beng has made some moves. There are three thousand iron cavalry outside the city and five hundred elite soldiers inside."
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng paused slightly, then slowly raised his head and revealed a faint smile: "It seems my good brother is a little impatient."
"Your Highness, we are ready. At your command, these bastards will all be executed."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao's cold expression revealed a hint of murderous intent.
"No rush, let's wait and see who else will jump out."
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"By the way, Your Highness."
"His Majesty has summoned you to come over tomorrow; it seems he has something to tell you. We have also discovered that His Majesty has summoned Prince Xue Qinghe, Prince Xue Beng, Prince Xue Xing, and Dugu Bo as well."
"It seems like tomorrow's matter is quite significant, I estimate it might be..."
As Zhao Gao spoke, his gaze fell upon Ying Zheng.
Upon hearing this, a glint of light appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes.
"It seems that Father is also about to make a decision."
"That's fine too!"
