Chapter 215 Good Melon
[Host, you don't believe me!] The system said angrily, [I said, no corrupt official can escape my eyes!]
[It's not that I don't trust you, but people's hearts are fickle.]
The system wasn't buying her explanation. "Haven't we discussed this before? Cases heard by the local supervisory offices require your review before a final verdict can be issued."
[But it just occurred to me that if that happens, I'll be working like a slave for Your Majesty forever!]
Emperor Yuan: ...So you changed your mind just now because you didn't want to work, not because you were afraid of losing your life?
All the civil and military officials didn't understand why Lord Xiao Jiang was so resistant to being an official.
The system thought for a moment and said, "Host, isn't your brother going to be an official in the future? When you're ready to resign, you can ask the Emperor to recommend your brother to take your place."
"But His Majesty just said that if I choose the wrong person, I'll have to die to atone for my sin. Isn't that just pushing my brother into the fire?"
Upon hearing this, the system immediately shouted unhappily: [You still say you don't disbelieve me, but I've already told you that no corrupt official can escape my eyes!]
Jiang Yueyang felt a little guilty, but then she thought of something and said hurriedly: [No, someone can escape your eyes!]
【who? 】
[A person with a special fate like Master Wu Nian! ]
system:【……】
The system said speechlessly: [Host, are you stupid? Even if there are people with special fates, can't you just not choose them as officials of the Supervisory Department?]
Jiang Yueyang: [……]
Jiang Yueyang coughed awkwardly, "Xiaogua, the person I just spoke to you was not me."
[…Then who am I talking to? ]
[I don’t know, it’s not me anyway. 】
Civil and military officials: "..."
The third prince smiled secretly with the corners of his mouth curled up. So this is how Jiang Yueyang acted like a rogue.
Emperor Yuan coughed speechlessly twice, "Jiang Yueyang, regarding the establishment of the Supervisory Office, please give me a detailed list of regulations. I will make a decision after discussing it with the three provinces and six ministries."
"Your Majesty, I suddenly feel that the idea of establishing an Inspectorate is a bit immature, otherwise..."
"Words spoken cannot be taken back, like water spilled. Don't even think about letting it go." Emperor Yuan interrupted her without acquiescing. "List the rules as soon as possible."
"……promise."
Afterwards, Emperor Yuan went to discuss other matters with his court officials.
Jiang Yueyang felt that she and her father were becoming more and more like each other. They both endured hardships without any effort. No wonder there is a saying that a good father will have a good son.
She sighed helplessly, "Little Melon, I'm getting further and further down the path of resigning. If the Supervisory Office is established, I'll have to stay in office for at least another three years."
[More than that, it will take at least five years.] The system finished emotionlessly, [If time could go back, would you still suggest to His Majesty the establishment of an Inspectorate?]
Jiang Yueyang lowered his eyes and was silent for a while. [Yes. If everyone was as beastly as County Magistrate Zhu, then the people would suffer terribly.
Never mind, Your Majesty is right, it's hard to undo what's been done, so let's just take it one step at a time for now.]
[Now that you've figured it out, let's eat some melons, shall we? ]
【it is good! 】
Upon hearing this, the system immediately said: [Host, didn’t you want to hear some positive news before? ]
[Hmm... didn't you say there was no such melon? ]
【I just saw one that happened recently. 】
Hearing that today's gossip happened recently, all the civil and military officials subconsciously recalled what they had done recently.
The fifth prince glanced down at his five-month-old belly. He had been losing weight successfully recently. Were they going to tell him my inspirational story of successful weight loss?
The third prince raised his chin proudly when he thought about how he carried the old man on his back to the pharmacy to see a doctor. They must be saying that I am helpful!
Kong Jijiu smiled slightly and said, "I picked up a bag of gold on the road a few days ago. They will probably say that I am honest and trustworthy."
The Duke of England raised the corner of his mouth with pride. "Yesterday when I was accompanying my wife back to her parents' home, someone tried to frame my brother-in-law. Fortunately, I saw through that person's trick. They must be praising me for being smart and wise!"
Emperor Yuan felt that today's incident had nothing to do with him, and he was thankful that they didn't say bad things about him.
This kind of good melon...is not his turn.
Everyone present had their own thoughts, but they all felt that Jiang Yueyang and the others were trying to praise themselves.
Jiang Yueyang urged: "Hurry up and tell me, I really want to know what the positive energy melon is like."
[First, let me announce today's protagonist. He is...] The system deliberately dragged out the last word, [He is Bai Ze...]
Upon hearing this, the people who had previously mistakenly thought it was them showed disappointed expressions.
On the other hand, Bai Ze looked confused. I don’t seem to have done anything worthy of praise recently?
Just as Jiang Yueyang was about to ask Bai Ze what he had done, the system gasped and said, "Master Xiao Yi, the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, is behind Bai Ze."
Xiao Yi suddenly looked up, me?
Jiang Yueyang glanced back and saw Xiao Yi's expression. She couldn't help but frown and asked, "Xiaogua, is he cross-eyed? Why are his eyes so wide open?"
Xiao Yi: "..."
Civil and military officials: Hahahaha... He was so happy that he won the lottery that he didn't react for a while.
Yuanzheng lowered his eyes in disappointment. It was still not my turn to eat the melon today.
By the way, it’s been a while since I went to court, right?
Why can’t Lord Xiao Jiang and Xiao Gua see me?
Is it because I don’t look eye-catching enough?
Thinking of this, Guo Yuanzheng slowly raised his hand and touched his cheek.
I remember there's a medical book in the library that contains a beauty and skincare recipe. Perhaps I can...
No!
Lady Xiao Jiang's way of thinking is somewhat peculiar, and ordinary methods of attracting attention don't work on her.
Well... it's better to leave some visible injuries on your body.
Just do it!
System: [Host, he doesn't have cross-eyes.]
Jiang Yueyang said, "Then why are his eyes so wide open? He looks like he's seen a ghost."
[Host... can't you just let my eyes be this big and round? ]
Jiang Yueyang: […Forget it, let’s just talk about melons.]
The system cleared its throat and said, "The Xiao family has four siblings. Xiao Yi is the third oldest, with a married sister.
Three months ago, their mother felt that they all had their own families, so she decided to divide the property among the three brothers.
According to the order of seniority, after the brothers separated, Mrs. Xiao had to live with the eldest son.
But the three brothers are all filial children and all hope that their mother will live with them.
So, the three brothers started a heated discussion about the custody of their mother.
Finally, they decided to take turns inviting Madam Xiao to live in their own homes for a month. But...
