Chapter 333: Threat
But before Gan Yanling could finish reviewing all those memorials, he was caught off guard.
As a result, another batch of memorials were delivered by servants.
Looking at the mountain of memorials, Gan Yanling felt a slight headache.
"When will I finally have some free time? There are so many things here..."
Upon hearing Gan Yanling's words, Xiao Li Zi tried to appease him. "Your Majesty," he said, "this servant actually thinks that if Your Majesty could review all these memorials today, perhaps there wouldn't be so many tomorrow."
After all, these memorials were left behind by Gan Yanling, weren't they? If Gan Yanling reviewed them here every day, how could he have left behind so many memorials? Ultimately, it is Gan Yanling's procrastination that has led to him having to review so many now.
Sometimes Gan Yanling truly loathed the throne. If it weren't for the throne, how could Gan Yanling have no freedom here, having to review so many memorials time and time again, and listening to the complaints of the ministers in the court?
And then there's the harem, where the concubines constantly complain and vie for the emperor's favor—it all makes Gan Yanling feel quite exhausted.
If it were truly necessary to ask Gan Yanling to give up the throne, he would always feel a little reluctant.
After much deliberation, Gan Yanling concluded that as long as he could obtain all the military power, he believed that these people in the court would absolutely not dare to oppose him.
But now all these military powers are in Gan Luo's hands. How can we take them away from Gan Luo?
I don't know why, but at that moment I felt it was incredibly difficult, as if it were impossible to ascend to heaven.
"Little Li, tell me, if I were to have military power now, do you think these ministers in the court would still dare to disobey me here?"
For the moment, Little Li didn't know how to answer Gan Yanling.
"This servant knows nothing about the affairs of the court, so there is no way I can answer Your Majesty's question."
Moreover, if the answer is not good, once this matter gets out, it is very likely that people will use it to make a fuss.
Even if someone answers well, they will still receive a bonus. However, those who dislike Leonardo DiCaprio will definitely gossip about it behind his back.
To avoid this happening, he had to pretend he knew nothing.
In fact, Xiao Li felt that regardless of whether he could obtain all the military power, the people in the court... he really thought they were very unreliable, saying one thing and doing another.
Which statement is true and which is false?
Hearing Li Zi's ambiguous answer, Gan Yanling was no fool. He knew that Li Zi was unwilling to get involved in such a mess.
Since Xiao Li is here and is unwilling now, Gan Yanling certainly won't force him.
Although Xiao Li Zi was just a eunuch, he had been following Gan Yanling for a long time.
The important thing is that Xiao Li is quite efficient in doing things, which Gan Yanling likes. Before this, he thought that after Xiao Yu left, he would not be able to do anything as smoothly as before.
But later I found that I could still get what I wanted.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not making things difficult for this servant here."
"I have one more thing to ask you, and that is, if you were not a eunuch, would you be willing to marry and have children now?"
Little Li would definitely nod in agreement, naturally willing, but unfortunately he was now just a eunuch, no longer worthy of being called a man, so how could he marry and have children?
But this is the path he chose himself, and no matter what, he must persevere on it.
In the Imperial Garden, Murong Xueqi and Shangguan Tian'er were bickering. Xu Jiu felt a headache coming on, and Green Bamboo was also planning to rush up to help Murong Xueqi.
"No." Xu Jiu had already grabbed Lü Zhu's hand and indicated that they could not go forward. Xu Jiu then gestured to the maid behind him, who immediately separated the two of them.
"Do you even know this is the inner palace? How could you do such a thing here? If this gets out, what will the common people and the officials in the court think of us?"
Then they questioned them about who would take responsibility for this matter.
Murong Xueqi must be looking smug, and judging from her expression, she doesn't seem to want to admit it at all.
Ultimately, Shangguan Tian'er was definitely using her status to suppress Murong Xueqi. Murong Xueqi was suddenly suppressed, and in that instant, she was furious. She never expected that Shangguan Tian'er would use her status to suppress her.
"You are utterly despicable and shameless. I never expected you to use your status to suppress me here."
"Did I use my status to suppress you? I did not use my status to suppress you. I just hope you can understand one thing: the difference between you and me. Also, don't be so arrogant and try to deal with me here. Otherwise, I will deal with you directly according to the palace rules."
Feeling somewhat annoyed from reviewing memorials, Gan Yanling went for a walk in the Imperial Garden. Hearing the commotion, he went there and saw them arguing.
"What exactly are you doing? I have already handed over all the affairs of the harem to Consort Shu. You all must listen to Consort Shu. If you do not listen to Su Fei now, it means you have not taken my words to heart."
Those of them listening here must have realized at this moment that this was blatant protection of Shangguan Tian'er.
This matter was certainly seen clearly by the guards in the shadows.
They left the palace quietly and returned to the Princess's residence, where they told Gan Luo about what had happened.
Gan Luo decided to go to the palace in person to see Murong Xueqi.
Afterwards, Gan Luo would definitely bring Lin Fengmian and Lin Ruohua with him. As soon as they entered the palace, they went directly to Murong Xueqi's palace.
But to his surprise, he had only just reached the door when he heard Murong Xueqi cursing inside.
When the palace maid saw Gan Luo arrive, she was about to bow when Gan Luo made a shushing gesture, so the palace maid had no choice but to stay quietly to the side.
The palace maid, hearing Murong Xueqi discussing these matters inside, felt a pang of worry for her.
