Chereads / What's Your Gender, Princess? / Chapter 37 - Chapter 37

Chapter 37 - Chapter 37

Ah, come to think of it, Liu Shilang was the most active at that time, his portrait was also painted particularly carefully, now look, there really was no difference between the portrait and the real person. Liu Shilang's appearance was quite ordinary, it was probably her mother that was particularly good-looking.

Liu Ya at this time was very surprised looking at me, Wu Min Jun, weirdly-- that's right, just now, the usually unsmiling emperor actually screamed, and then hid behind the empress... How can one not be extremely surprised? Looking behind at the two guards, they were also recovering from the fright of "I have encountered something that is not clean," but then fell into the line of thought that "the Emperor is so useless"...

Acting as if nothing happened, I went "Liu Ya? hm.... I have a slight impression."

Liu Ya lit up and happily said: "The Emperor remembers this servant, this is really the good fortune of this servant."

I modestly said: "It's only that my memory is quite good."

Liu Ya: "..."

Wu Min Jun coolly asked: How did you get in, hm?The Imperial palace is heavily guarded, how did you enter here?"

Liu ya's plan did not include the Empress being in the royal study, she froze and went on her knees: "This servant did not have any intentions... Just this servant....wanted to see the Emperor, so put on a palace maid's clothes and hid, I saw that the lamp in the royal study was still on, so thinking that the Emperor was probably still reading memorials, I wanted to play a song for the Emperor to listen..."

"Oh, you really chose a good song --' Seeing the gentleman, Yun Hu is not happy'? it has a lot of meanings."

**(It's a sorrowful love song from the Book of Songs in which a woman who seems to be suffering (probably at the hands of said husband, probably being ignored by him and tormented by his minions) wanting to rejoice about simply getting a glimpse/look at her husband but questioning: Should I not Rejoice? So despite her suffering, she wants to rejoice about briefly seeing her husband...Get it? )**

Liu Ya instantly blushed:"... I was Just casually playing."

Her appearance was really pitiful, but it was a pity that Wu Min Jun never understood pity, Wu Min Jun slowly walked past and said: "Want to seduce the emperor? You fall too short. The emperor has told you; your eyes are too crowded, your nose is too high, your mouth is too flat... Nothing good to speak of."

This was too much nonsense; her eyes are too crowded, but they are pretty! As for the nose, what's wrong with a high nose? It's a little mouth, and it's very red, and it's not flat...

Sure enough, listening to Wu Min Jun saying all this, Liu ya felt wronged and showed a look of anger, but she still had the sense to reason, knowing this was the Empress in front of her eyes, she could only weakly say: "Seduce the emperor? No, no.... really not... Empress, How can you say that? How can you say that?..."

I admit using such a shy wronged voice was special, I couldn't help but say:"... Do you have trouble breathing?"

Liu Ya froze: "No"

"Then speak properly..." I said, why are you talking like you are dying?

I didn't speak the last sentence out loud, for fear of her dying from grief or committing suicide.

Liu Ya could see that she was not welcome, and so weakly said: "This servant is wrong... This servant will return."

Wu Min Jun flatly said: "The palace is a very important place, want to enter and then leave just like that? Or is it that the Liu family is so big that they do not put the Imperial family in their eyes? is it that your Liu family so high-powered that you can enter and leave the Imperial Palace as you like, like it's no man's land, a place without order? Is it that your Liu family wants to try to climb up and sit on the Emperor's dragon chair?!"

I understood that Wu Min Jun is pretending to be evil for show, but he seemed to be really angered by Liu Ya's behavior, the look in his eyes was really fierce. Liu Ya, even though she was facing another woman, was completely petrified and was shivering as she bowed saying: "Empress niang niang...No, you have misunderstood, my father is completely loyal, and has no such intentions, he only let me in so I can better serve the emperor, there is really no other meaning!"

**(Niang Niang is a form of address used to refer to the royal wives)**

She looked over at me with tear-filled eyes: "Emperor, you must believe in this servant ah!"

In fact, I believe her, but looking at Wu Min Jun's face, I dare not interrupt, so I said: "Well... This kind of thing the Empress has to decide."

Two guards.:"..."

They must have thought, the Emperor is useless...

After hearing that the Empress will deal with her, she showed a look of shock and despair. She was shivering and looked around her, she was kneeling right in from the lotus pond, and there was nowhere to escape to.

Thinking that Wu Mi Jun will really kill her, I then added: "Empress, just hitting her is fine, no need to spend too much effort!"

Liu Ya:"!..."

Liu ya to cast me a desperate gaze, she did not know that I was trying to save her.

Wu Min Jun went to Liu Ya's, Liu ya looked down shivering, seeming to accept the punishment. I was also a little nervous, I didn't know what Wu Min Jun will do.

"This kind of thing has never happened before, and I never want to see it happen again. This time, the Emperor trusts you so..." He looked back and smiled, and then he continued to turn to Liu ya and said, "So we'll punish you to send a warning."

After saying that, he stretched out a foot, close to Liu ya and kicked out gently...

... and she flew into the Lotus pond.

Me:"..."

The guards.:"..."

Liu Ya:"!..."

"Ah!" Liu ya screamed, obviously unable to swim, flapping about in the pool screaming, Wu Min Jun suddenly said: "What are you doing? Stand up straight, the water is only up to your shoulders"

Liu Ya:"......"

Liu Ya was embarrassed and stood upright, sure enough, the water was shallow, only coming up to her collarbones.

I wanted to laugh, but I could not bear to seeing Liu Ya's embarrassing state, so I told the two guards who were petrified behind us, to pull her out of the water and told them to send her out when the gates open in the morning. I dare not let Liu Ya go into the inner palace to change clothes looking at Wu Min Jun's face... Liu Ya got off easy.

After all this, I didn't feel sleepy anymore, looking at Wu Min Jun, he also seemed to be energetic, so we both returned to the study and continued to read memorials.

The next day in court, I especially observed Liu Shilang, I saw his face was pale with furrowed brows, apparently, he must already know that Wu Min Jun taught his daughter a lesson... His heart must not be happy.

Liu Shilang seemed to be worried that I will mention the issue of yesterday, and he showed a relieved expression when I did not say anything and court ended.

Later, the matter probably spread, and no one dared to mention it before me, and even the choosing concubines dropped... But now the empress, I'm afraid will be likened to a river lion guarding its territory.

However, it can also be seen from this matter that Wu Min Jun did not like anyone to invade his "territory", in this regard, he seems to be easily offended.

My assassination attempt on him was the most serious act of invasion of his territory, and if not for our bodies switching, my end would have been worse. However, to put it bluntly, if I was not as good as him in martial arts, I would have ended up dead. Fortunately, my martial arts could match his. So no matter how strong the opponent was, the most important thing was to improve your own level.
