A Cutie Spoiled by Her Seven Uncles

Chapter 1189 - 940 Truth 20 Begin Closing the Net 1_2

Fleeing with his face covered!Song Yuan laughed heartily, pointing at his retreating figure and said to Chancellor Lin, "Hahaha! Didn’t I say that kid couldn’t possibly be born with a poker face?

Look, didn’t I make him drop the act?

Quick, quick, quick, give me what we agreed upon! I finally succeeded in making this kid show a second expression!"

Chancellor Lin: "..."

Many years ago, unknowingly, Ji Youze caught the attention of the two Chancellors, always with an expressionless face, making it impossible for them to make him laugh no matter what they said or did.

He always wore the same face.

So, the two made a bet: whoever could make Ji Youze change his expression first would win the stationary that His Majesty had previously bestowed upon them!

To this day, Chancellor Lin could barely remember the bet she had with Chancellor Song.

"Alas! With talents like Ji Youze to succeed, we can rest assured."

Today, Chancellor Lin also reviewed Ji Youze’s exam paper, a perfect candidate for succession.

"I’m just afraid that young people have too sharp of edges, too impetuous, and too sharp a blade!"

Chancellor Song sighed beside him.

Chancellor Lin just laughed, "He’s already using us as a whetstone! The top three parade hasn’t even taken place yet, but he’s already solved such a big case. When the day breaks, what a sensation it will cause in the court and among the people!"

Chancellor Song had a bit of concern, "Chancellor Lin, regarding your future..."

"Everything depends on His Majesty’s grace!"

"Alas! You’ve always loved the people like your own children, how could you..."

"I can love the people like my own children, but I also have someone closest to me. The one I’ve let down the most in my life is my mother. I only hope that no one disturbs her peace at her grave during this disaster!"

Chancellor Song felt very sympathetic towards him!

"Lord Song, Ji Youze is quite the good son-in-law!

You mustn’t let him slip away!"

Suddenly, Chancellor Lin changed the subject!

"Hey! Wasn’t all that for the sake of our wager?

If we don’t settle this quickly, who knows if, in the future, we’ll still be able to spar on the Imperial Court?

Winning right now means I can obtain the fine stationary rewarded by His Majesty!"

Chancellor Lin laughed lightly, exposing him without leaving any face.

"You clearly have those thoughts, and at the last Double Ninth Festival Palace Banquet, what was Miss Song searching for with her eyes among the banquet?

These two eyes of mine saw it clearly, and besides, Miss Song didn’t participate in this imperial selection, right?"

Song Yuan: "..." Having an old fox as a colleague means having no privacy at all, truly irritating!

"Also, they might not be able to catch the elder of the Li Family!

Do you think that, like the Ji family brothers and His Majesty speculated, the Li Family is a mole planted by Xunyang from Nanjiang in the court?"

Chancellor Song was reluctant to discuss his daughter’s marriage, as it was a sore spot for him.

So he changed the topic.

"As long as the National Master and Sect Leader Ji take action, regardless of who it is, they should be able to capture the culprit!"

Indeed, with Ji Youyuan taking action, there’s naturally no reason for the adversary to escape.

The matter was as follows.

Ji Youyuan had an inexplicable feeling today, always sensing that something was off in the Capital City.

Besides him, the National Master also sensed something was amiss.

Don’t ask why the two of them felt something was off; just know that the Imperial Guard and Inner Guard had captured so many people in one day, even taking away the left and right Chancellors, anyone would notice that today was unusual!

Of course, the National Master and Ji Youyuan sensed that the anomaly was due to Celestial Dao.

For people like them, who have reached Grandmaster Level, they naturally sensed a Qi that didn’t belong to the righteous path moving towards the Imperial Palace.

And this Qi was very familiar to Princess Ata, so in this battle, there was yet another Princess Ata!

When Princess Ata appeared outside the Palace, Ji Youyuan and the National Master had already arrived.

So, very tacitly, the three of them encircled the figure in a black robe, forming a triangular formation.

With a "bang," fireworks exploded, and Ji Youyuan shot a firework into the sky.

"It’s the warning fireworks from the Divine Hunter Ji!"

The Inner Guards stationed at the door of the Imperial Study were stunned. Divine Hunter Ji was clearly inside the Imperial Study, how could he be setting off warning fireworks outside Gongqiang?

"Divine Hunter Ji! There’s a warning firework outside that’s uniquely yours!"

An Inner Guard shouted loudly towards the location of the Imperial Study.

Ji Youzhi was completely baffled.

"I’m right inside the Imperial Palace, how could I be setting off fireworks outside the Palace walls?"
