I am a villain, why are there always people chasing me?

It's still early, so the task is not urgent.

Gu Xiyan spent an afternoon processing the official documents through the memory of the original owner, which gave him a headache.

Suddenly I missed my secretarial team very much. They would not show me all these nonsense things!

Gu Xiyan immediately decided that when he goes to court tomorrow, he must ask them about the format issue!

Renshou Palace

A three-meter-high Buddha statue was placed in the center of the room. I, the Buddha, looked at the wisps of incense burning in front of me with compassionate eyes.

A young woman in plain clothes sat on her knees on a cushion, knocking wooden fish with one hand, holding Buddhist beads with the other, and chanting something in her mouth.

Several palace maids silently stood by the woman's side.

"My sons and ministers see their mother and queen."

"Mother, are you looking for my son?"

After Qin Yu saluted, he said to the woman respectfully.

Empress Dowager Lu picked up the Buddhist beads in her hand and kept moving. Qin Yu straightened up, walked to the cushion next to the Empress Dowager, knelt down, and silently recited the Buddhist scriptures that the Empress Dowager had given him.

Since the death of the late emperor and the burial of all the concubines, princes and princesses in the palace, Empress Dowager Lu has always accompanied the ancient Buddha with green lanterns, dressed in plain clothes, chanted sutras and eaten vegetarian food every day.

I don't know how long it took, but Queen Mother Lu's men kept moving and finally said, "I heard that the regent is ill?"

"Yes." Qin Yu stopped chanting and replied respectfully, "He fell into a coma during the banquet."

"Did you do this?" Queen Mother Lu closed her eyes and knocked on the wooden fish.

"No." Qin Yu answered truthfully.

"When I sent the imperial doctor to treat him, the regent obviously lost his breath for a moment, but he suddenly regained his breath and acted as usual again soon after."

"Boom."

Queen Mother Lu stopped, opened her eyes and put down the gavel.

"Oh? Really?"

Empress Dowager Lu was thoughtful and turned to look at Qin Yu. Without waiting for his answer, she said seriously: "No matter what his plans are, Ze'er, we must be patient and follow his wishes. We must not act out of anger. Only by keeping a low profile can you have enough strength to challenge him, otherwise, your brothers and sisters will be the fate of us two!"

"My son, I understand." Qin Yu concealed the emotion in his eyes.

You don't love me, and you don't care whether I'm doing well or not. You've always just used me as a tool to fight for favor and power and survive.

"Stand back." Empress Dowager Lu waved her hand, continued to chant sutras with her eyes closed, and struck the wooden fish.

Qin Yu silently stood up and left.

The next day, Gu Xiyan got up early, declined the service of the maid, tidied his clothes, sat quietly on the couch and took a nap, waiting for the time to go to court.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"

Seeing that the time was almost up, the maid Qingzhu beside Gu Xiyan called softly.

"Huh? The time has come?" Gu Xiyan slowly opened his eyes, "Let's go."

Then, Gu Xiyan took a carriage to the Jinluan Palace.

"I have something to tell you. There will be a severe drought in Liangzhou this year..."

"I am reporting that the son of the minister has raped a common girl..."

"minister……"

The voices of the ministers in the hall were rising one after another, reporting on important matters and some petty thefts. For a while, the ministers from different factions were quarreling for their own interests, and their posture was very much like that of an aunt bargaining in a busy market.

The little emperor was sitting on the dragon chair, lowering his head and playing with his fingers. His expression and emotion could not be seen clearly.

Gu Xiyan had a headache from the noise, and couldn't help but said loudly: "My lord, I have a plan to report."

For a moment, the Jinluan Palace was so quiet that one could hear needles dropping.

No one knows who will suffer next if the regent speaks now.

"Uncle Emperor, cough, Regent, please speak." Qin Yu stopped playing with his fingers and sat upright.

Gu Xiyan took the opportunity to propose the idea of ​​changing the format of the memorial document, refining the words and highlighting the key points in a syllogism.

Unexpectedly, before Gu Xiyan finished speaking, Qin Yu waved his hand and said, "Just do as the regent said."

Gu Xiyan: Do you trust me so much?

"The questions you have just raised are all written in the form of memorials required by the Regent. I and the Regent will answer them for you." Qin Yu seemed a little impatient.

"Yes."

"Retreat from the court—" Xiao Shunzi shouted.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"That's right." The little emperor who was standing up paused, "The regent is staying, I have important matters to discuss."

"I obey the order." Gu Xiyan bowed his hands in salute.

After everyone else had left, Qin Yu trotted down and ran into Gu Xiyan's arms, which was so painful that Gu Xiyan almost screamed.

Damn it, little brat, did you do this on purpose?

Gu Xiyan clenched his back molars.

"Uncle Emperor, Aze misses you so much. Now I finally have a chance to let you accompany me!" Qin Yu smiled happily. It was completely impossible to tell whether he was intentional, but Gu Xiyan couldn't see it. His eyes suddenly turned cold.

Gu Xiyan calmed his expression and said, "Your Majesty..."

"Okay, okay, I know that there is a difference between a king and a minister! I'm just too happy." Qin Yu let go of his hand, his little face bulging.

"Since the emperor is so free, let me see the results of the emperor during this period." Gu Xiyan ignored the little emperor's objections and directly turned on the parent mode.

Hearing this, Qin Yu was a little panicked, but he still honestly explained what he had learned during this period.

"Then I have come to test Your Majesty, what is the golden mean?" Gu Xiyan said slowly with a paralyzed face.

"I believe that when joy, anger, sorrow, and joy have not yet arisen, it is called neutrality; when they arise, they are all in the middle, and are called harmony. The neutrality is the foundation of the world. The harmony is the way of the world. To achieve neutrality, heaven and earth will be harmonious. Wherever you are, all things are nurtured. When you are in the upper position, you don’t care about the lower ones. When you are in the lower position, you don’t support the higher ones. If you don’t ask for help from others, then you will complain. The higher ones don’t complain about heaven, and the lower ones don’t blame others.”

The little emperor seemed to be reciting a text, and he was stumbling a bit.

"Oh, you have the same virtues as your brothers. Why did I keep you, a dull and unmotivated person, in the first place!"

Qin Yu froze on the spot with his eyes wide open, his eyes filled with confusion.

"Next time I will randomly check your learning results with General Pei. If you are still like this, then you don't need to learn anymore!"

Gu Xiyan tossed his sleeves and walked away coolly, and the slight feeling of guilt in his heart disappeared when he heard the system announcement.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. You will be rewarded with 10 points. The points will be distributed after the plane ends!"

Damn it, I will die tragically in the hands of Qin Yu anyway, so I will just take it as interest now.

Qin Yu, who was just there, still had the sadness and confusion in his eyes, only full of coldness.

By the way, that's it, constantly belittling me, making me lose my self-confidence, living decadently, and finally seizing the rightful place in my Qin family. This is the face Gu Xiyan should have!

As for why he suddenly became talkative and approachable in the past two days, it was probably my misunderstanding, or maybe he had come up with some new bad idea.

After all, hasn't he been an unstable person since his last life?

Qin Yu took off his outer robe ruthlessly and threw it to the ground.

"Send my dragon robe to the Clothing Department to be washed ten times!"
