Chapter 115

"Is there a possibility of negotiation?" Liu Wenchang's words left Xiao Yunzhou astonished.

Negotiation?

Indeed.

In a war between two nations, the messenger is never killed!

Negotiation, why hadn't he thought about it?

Wait, won't the assassin know that he's been exposed?

Liu Wenchang was different today, "Your Majesty, if you can conduct a test every ten days for civil and military officials, why can't you hold a censored question-and-answer test for the entire harem?"

Xiao Yunzhou abruptly lifted his head to look at Liu Wenchang, "Master Liu, are you suggesting, like the Imperial Examination System, that everyone can seal their names? This way, everyone can freely express what they need..."

Including the assassin.

"Yes. Your Majesty, the other party can read and write, right?"

Xiao Yunzhou was stunned, he really didn't know.

Not all eunuchs in the palace had been educated, many of them were illiterate, after all, many only performed cleaning duties.

As Xiao Yunzhou was worried, Wei Zheng reported.

"Your Majesty, Consort Min's place was robbed today."

"Thankfully, neither the Consort nor the Princess and Prince were frightened."

Xiao Yunzhou and Liu Wenchang were alarmed at the same time, how could there be thieves, was it the assassin's doing?

"What's missing from Donghua Palace?" Xiao Yunzhou hurriedly asked.

Wei Zheng remained silent for a moment, "Hmm... a string of roasted pork belly, and a fresh leaf of lettuce."

"...?"

Xiao Yunzhou's mouth gaped open.

His tension evaporated like foam, looking at Wei Zheng with a gaze that said 'is the thief sick, or are you?'

However, Liu Wenchang quickly understood, "Hmm? Roasted pork belly, fresh lettuce? Is this a new way of eating?"

As Liu Wenchang spoke, he couldn't help but salivate.

Without thinking too much, it must be his precious granddaughter's idea!

Just like the roast duck.

"To answer Master Liu's question, this is Concubine Liu trying to imitate the fried skewers that His Majesty invented a while ago."

Wei Zheng’s words made Xiao Yunzhou's face both gratified and relaxed, and a little embarrassed.

Concubine Liu really thinks about him, the Emperor, all the time!

Even though she's not by his side, even though he's left the palace, even when she eats something, she wants to imitate him, the Emperor!

Ah, Xiao Yunzhou's self-esteem was greatly satisfied, especially today when the cabinet ministers ignored him.

But Xiao Yunzhou also couldn't help but blush.

Because it wasn’t him, the Emperor who comes with an open mouth for meals, who thought of the fried skewers, it was all the little princess who told him.

Fried skewers are a delicacy of the fairy world.

Xiao Yunzhou is the supreme ruler, but he knows he's only the earthly supreme ruler, he must not claim the things of the fairy world as his own.
