Chapter 117: Forgive Others when You Can

Thinking of this, Wen Jin was slightly stunned, and his eyes were lonely.

In fact, he didn't need to bother to plan.

Her Highness has done enough in the past three years. Langya, the most powerful doctor in the world, works for her, the son of the Chu State obeys her, the Vermillion Bird King Luming is willing to be driven, and the Regent is willing to avoid the edge - as long as the Regent turns a blind eye, Yan Chen is not an opponent at all.

The only thing Wen Jin needs to consider is that the people who will be loyal to His Highness in the future must be reliable, and His Highness must get that chair legitimately, and cannot be named as a regicide and usurpation of the throne.

He wants His Highness to be famous for generations, not to be accused and abused by future generations.

Wen Jin thought of the most critical person in his past and present lives - the director of the Imperial Observatory, Si Yuan.

This person predicted that Her Highness was a star of misfortune since she was born, which led to Her Highness's misfortune in life. He is the culprit.

Wen Jin took up the pen and wrote the two words "Si Yuan" on the last line of the rice paper. His eyes fell on these two words for a long time, and he was silent.

Half a day passed quickly.

Yan Qing always had a light sleep, so Wen Jin didn't dare to disturb her in the inner hall, fearing to wake her up. She sat in front of the desk and carefully thought about the situation in the court.

Near noon, Yan Qing woke up and saw Wen Jin sitting in front of the desk. His eyes fell on the rice paper in front of him. He sneered lightly, but didn't say anything. He called the maid in to help him wash up.

"Your Highness!" Someone came in quickly outside, "Is lunch ready?"

Wen Jin frowned slightly and got up to tidy up the desk.

"Why are you in your Highness's bedroom?" Lu Ming saw Wen Jin as soon as he stepped into the Qihuang Palace. He raised his eyebrows and showed a mocking look on his face, "Isn't Lord Wen still weaned? He follows behind your Highness every day, and he has no sense of propriety."

As soon as these words came out, Wen Jin didn't say anything, Yan Qing came out, "You said I was a wet nurse?"

Lu Ming's expression cracked instantly, and then he smiled embarrassedly: "That's not what I meant."

He just made a slip of the tongue. How could he compare your Highness to a wet nurse?

"The King of Suzaku usually looks majestic, but when he comes to Your Highness, he is like a child who has not grown up. How dare you say that he has not been weaned? I see that you are both the same, and no one is more mature and stable than the other." Langya walked into the door slowly, wearing a blue shirt that was elegant and dusty, "Your Highness, do you think I am right?"

Yan Qing glanced at him: "The Regent and Uncle Chen left?"

"Gone." Lu Ming smiled proudly, "If it weren't for the Regent, I would have buried that Chen in the back garden."

"What's the point of burying him in the back garden? The back garden is not short of that little fertilizer." Langya sneered, "I asked him to go back and tell the emperor that one antidote costs 500,000 taels of silver. If the queen mother wants the antidote, she should also take out 500,000 taels. This This way, this genius doctor can make a net profit of one million taels of silver this year. What do you think of this idea, Your Highness? "

Yan Qing nodded: "Not bad."

"I should have poisoned Uncle Chen earlier, so that I could earn an extra 500,000 taels." Lu Ming touched his chin, "The military pay for 500,000 elite soldiers in Zhuque City is now available."

"500,000?" Yan Qing's expression was subtle, "Where did you get 500,000 soldiers?"

"I dare not say that the elite soldiers under my command can fight ten with one, but fighting five with one is not a problem. Isn't 100,000 soldiers equivalent to 500,000?" Lu Ming smiled nonchalantly, "What's more, the powerful minister still has 50,000 elite soldiers in his hands. If they are trained well for a period of time, it is equivalent to adding another 200,000. "

Yan Qing was speechless for a while.

"The ability of the Suzaku King to settle accounts is unmatched." Langya sneered, "With this calculation, we can attack the imperial city tomorrow and replace the emperor."

Lu Ming sneered and said meaningfully: "Who knows if someone will tip off."

Yan Qing ignored him and sat quietly in front of the dressing table, letting the maid comb her hair and insert carefully selected pearl hairpins.

She didn't say anything, but Lu Ming obviously had something to say.

"Lord Wen has not forgotten the bet he lost in the martial arts competition." Turning to look at Wen Jin, Lu Ming said provocatively, "If you are willing to accept the loss, don't forget the 100 whips you owe."

Wen Jin said in a calm voice: "I haven't forgotten."

"I believe the powerful minister will not forget." Lu Ming sneered, "I just don't know when these 100 whips will be paid."

Wen Jin's eyes fell on Yan Qing's face: "Anytime, it depends on what Your Highness wants."

"You——"

Yan Qing stood up and walked out, "You can continue to quarrel, I'm going to eat first."

Lu Ming stopped talking immediately and hurriedly followed Yan Qing out.

Wen Jin followed quietly, his eyebrows drooping slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"There are many whips in the torture room of Suzaku Palace. Do you want me to pick one for your Highness?" Lu Ming couldn't help but speak again, "What kind does your Highness want? Long whip, short whip, rattan whip, twisted wire whip... I think the twisted wire whip is the best. One whip will tear the skin and flesh, ten whips will leave the body covered with bruises, and a hundred whips... Not a hundred whips, at most fifty can make the powerful minister dying and unable to speak again."

"Does Suzaku King have to be so cruel? If you don't know, you would think you have some deep hatred with Lord Wen." Langya shook his head in disapproval, "Doctors are like parents. If he is seriously injured, I have to save him. For your Highness's sake, I have to use good medicine. Do you know how expensive rare medicinal materials are?"

Lu Ming smiled coldly: "I'll pay for the medicine."

Langya said: "Five hundred thousand taels."

Lu Ming: "..." Is this taking advantage of the fire or asking for too much?

"Let's forgive others when we can. The Suzaku King has always been broad-minded and tolerant." Langya smiled, "Don't waste my herbs. Leave them to those who need them."

"In order to prevent people from saying that I am biased, I will not be able to escape the whipping I won in the martial arts competition." Yan Qing said indifferently, "It will be carried out tonight-"

"Your Highness!" Lu Ming suddenly interrupted her and smiled embarrassedly, "Or I will be magnanimous and not argue with him. The martial arts competition will be treated as if it never happened."

Yan Qing glanced at him: "What for?"
