Chapter 179 Get the Love-Brained One Out!
In the past few days, people have been asking Shen Zhiyi to make money together, offering very generous terms, almost like giving her money away.
Shen Zhiyi, who firmly believed that there was no such thing as a free lunch, could only reluctantly refuse.
Damn it, can these people please stop tempting me every day? I'm really susceptible to temptation, but there's no such thing as a free lunch. What if I get scammed and end up having my kidney chopped off?
The old emperor, who was reviewing memorials, chuckled upon hearing this.
With such a magical tool at her disposal, she was actually worried about being scammed.
I've been quite busy lately. After I finish this busy period, I have one day off this month, which I'm going to use to try setting up a stall.
The old emperor: Didn't he give Shen Zhiyi a full hundred taels of silver? Why does this guy insist on setting up a stall?
But as he spoke of being busy, the old emperor yawned, knowing he'd have to get up very early tomorrow.
The matter of going to sea was related to the quality of the breed, so the old emperor attached great importance to it.
"Alright, I need to go to bed early tonight. You may all go back now."
[Wow, this is unbelievable! They're sleeping so early! I'll remember this, it's so rare!]
[On the fifteenth day of the Renxu year, the emperor went to bed (a rare occurrence)]
The old emperor glanced at Zhang Sheren.
Zhang Sheren revealed eight gleaming teeth.
He hadn't expected Shen Zhiyi to share her opinion later on.
Perhaps Shen Zhiyi always felt that her daily records were inaccessible to people other than later generations, so she freely expressed her own interpretations.
Oh right, I almost forgot one thing: I didn't go to the restroom.
[The old emperor must have gotten up in the middle of the night; I understand given his age. I just don't know when he'll get up. I'll check the nighttime surveillance footage tomorrow morning. History must be written accurately and effectively.]
Everyone: Ah, now we need to be accurate and effective.
……
The old emperor attached great importance to this voyage, and even prepared a grand farewell banquet the day before the departure.
However, Shen Zhiyi reasonably suspects that another reason is the concentration of foreigners arriving within a certain timeframe.
The previous dynasty was once very prosperous, and the scenes of foreign countries coming to pay tribute are deeply etched in the hearts of the people of this land.
The old emperor harbored a strange competitive spirit towards the previous dynasty, so taking advantage of recent victories against neighboring countries, Da Ye was now riding high.
[The 16th, Gengshen day, uh, what should I write? "All nations pay tribute"? There aren't really all nations. There's Goguryeo, a bunch of small countries from the west, and the Turks from the north who were terrified. Tsk tsk tsk, all things considered, I'll write "One hundred nations pay tribute".]
"puff!"
Many people were so taken aback by Shen Zhiyi's logic that they choked on their drinks.
The phrase "万国来朝" (wàn guó lái cháo) is simply a way of describing a large
It's not like there are actually ten thousand countries. Besides, where would you find so many countries in the world?
The old emperor, sitting on the dragon throne, nearly fainted from anger.
The Goguryeo delegation, which was congratulating the old emperor, appeared uneasy.
Could there be something wrong with the few words of Da Ye language he just spoke?
Did he use the wrong words?
[This guy is the Goguryeo prince who was said to have the makings of a king by fortune tellers. Tsk tsk tsk, your parents must have abandoned you, which is why they sent you to Daye.]
[Do you have pickled radishes and spicy cabbage to eat? (smukbang)]
The old emperor turned his head and looked at Shen Zhiyi with curiosity.
Does this mean they understand the language of Goguryeo?
As expected of Shen Zhiyi, who possesses a divine artifact system, she is indeed a hidden master.
At this moment, the Goguryeo prince's back was soaked with cold sweat.
He must have said something wrong.
[This Goguryeo prince's family situation is a bit complicated; his ex-girlfriend is now his mother.]
The previously somewhat bored courtiers of Da Ye suddenly became excited.
One by one, they all turned to look at the Goguryeo prince.
The Goguryeo prince was drenched in sweat.
Sure enough, he said the wrong thing.
He looked to his advisor for help. This man was originally from Daye, and because he lived near the border with Goguryeo, he also knew the Goguryeo language.
The strategist was also completely bewildered at this point.
Don't ask, even if you ask, he won't know.
The Goguryeo prince once had a childhood sweetheart. They were inseparable since childhood, and everyone thought they would end up together. But who would have thought that after the Goguryeo prince came of age, his childhood sweetheart would become his stepmother? So dramatic!
When the Goguryeo prince learned of this, his first reaction was that his father had committed a crime of coercion. However, it turned out that his childhood sweetheart had consented. From then on, the Goguryeo prince sealed his heart from all love.
How pitiful, how truly pitiful.
This hair is even greener than the old emperor's.
In an instant, all the civil and military officials of Da Ye looked at the Goguryeo prince with pity.
The Goguryeo prince licked his lips, unable to bear it any longer, truly unable to bear it.
He began asking the old emperor in broken Chinese if he could step down.
The old emperor gave it a pitying look and waved his hand, saying, "Go, go."
【actually……】
Everyone: Wow, could there be a twist?
After the death of the Goguryeo prince's birth mother, his father was busy choosing a new queen. When the prince's childhood sweetheart learned of the chosen queen, she conceived a shocking idea.
[Tsk tsk tsk, the new queen consort of the Goguryeo king is the sworn enemy of the Goguryeo prince's birth mother. Once that guy takes the throne, the Goguryeo prince's life is definitely going to be difficult; in severe cases, his death is almost certain.]
Therefore, the Goguryeo prince's childhood sweetheart seduced the Goguryeo king and became his queen.
[This...this...I don't understand. Would someone really go to such lengths for a childhood sweetheart? To submit to an old man, and then spend every day going to great lengths to prove that their childhood sweetheart is the best candidate to inherit the throne.]
[Hehehe, now look what happened! The proof was taken away, and when it was presented to the old emperor, it almost led to the destruction of Goguryeo.]
The entire court was silent.
An official at the back wiped away his tears with his sleeve: "What deep affection! If I were a prince of Goguryeo, I would definitely marry her even if it meant sacrificing my own feelings."
"Come on, you're not even complaining? You have the nerve to complain."
"No, that's not the point. What kind of deep affection is this? It's just a young lady doing something foolish. When I get back, I'll tell my daughter that she shouldn't do such a foolish thing."
Being love-struck is unacceptable; you have to get rid of that.
Shen Zhiyi quickly shook her head.
[This is truly just pure self-pity.]
After exhaling a breath of stale air, Shen Zhiyi glanced at the Goguryeo prince who knew nothing and couldn't help but roll her eyes.
This eye-rolling gesture happened to fall on the eyes of the Goguryeo prince.
He patted his advisor on the shoulder.
"Who is that person? Why does he seem to have a problem with me?"
"This person should be the Imperial Diarist of the Emperor of Daye, an official who records the emperor's words and deeds. He is not an important person, so the prince need not worry about him."
