Chapter 31: 千穿萬穿馬屁不穿

*[千穿萬穿馬屁不穿: it means ‘you can do everything successfully with flattery.’ It used to mean that whatever was said was likely to be seen through and disliked but only flattery is loved by all.]

This time it’s good, she didn’t get the cash again, even now maybe this Ji Wu Jue would extort underneath false pretenses and cost her a particularly excessive amount of cash. 

What’s even worse is that the cash has been spent, however she has no reminiscence in any respect of how she slept with Ji Wu Jue final evening.

This time of sleeping, actually what a bloody loss ah!

“Ai Fei is Zhen (me) with such a glance, are you displeased with me?” Ji Wu Jue shot a faintly discernible look at Lu Yunluo. 

“He he he… Your Majesty is joking proper, how dare this servant be displeased with you?” Lu Yunluo was smiling and her previous few phrases have been stated with gritted tooth.

This bastard!

It should be on objective!

Her eyes caught a glimpse on the 2 phrases “幹旱” (drought) which stood out on the desk.

“Has the Emperor been apprehensive concerning the drought just lately?”

Ji Wu Jue shot a look at her and didn’t reply, ready for her to proceed. 

“Your servant could possibly assist Your Majesty just a bit.” Lu Yunluo’s face was changed with a skinny smile.

Don’t speak about the remaining, a minimum of she knew what the climate could be like within the subsequent 30 days.

For instance, in two days’ time, the long-awaited heavy rain would fall.

In response to the climate circumstances on the stone pill for the following 30 days, this 12 months’s drought isn’t prone to be a drought.

Though we don’t have to fret about this 12 months, we nonetheless have to forestall it subsequent 12 months.

Any variety of drought prevention measures from the twenty-first century, simply casually took it out, then it might be sufficient.

“Let me hear it.” Ji Wu Jue didn’t actually suppose that Lu Yunluo had an answer, however seeing the assured smile on her face, he abruptly wished to listen to it.

“Your Majesty, if you wish to know, it’s a must to promise this servant another factor.”

Ji Wu Jue solid a look at her, one take a look at her expression and he instantly knew she was undoubtedly pondering of one thing bizarre once more, the corners of his mouth curved up coldly, “Communicate!”

“In case your humble servant can assist Your Majesty remedy ‘as urgent as a hearth singeing one’s eyebrows’ downside ( a particularly pressing downside). Can Your Majesty reward this servant with three thousand taels of silver?”

This time, there was no cause for him to refuse, was there?

If he wouldn’t keen to return it, then she might solely earn it again from him along with her personal skill. 

“Should you can assist Zhen (me) remedy this drought downside, to not point out three thousand taels, I’m keen to provide you even ten thousand taels of gold. Nevertheless, are you certain you’ve got the power to get the cash?” Ji Wu Jue checked out her askance. It was not that he didn’t belief her, however this drought was a pure catastrophe, and since historical instances, many generations of princes and marquises, kings and generals had tried to forestall it, however there was nothing they might do.

Many dynasties have been in turmoil on account of successive years of drought, resulting in the downfall of a nation.

Nevertheless she, a mere girl within the palace, dares to make such an enormous assertion?

“Very properly, then! However I don’t dare to ask for the ten thousand taels of gold, I simply need the Emperor to return the three thousand taels of silver to me.”

Seeing that Ji Wu Jue didn’t object, she picked up the writing brush on the desk and wrote down an inventory on a bit of paper with a sleek. She couldn’t depend on a verbal settlement particularly when the opposite occasion was the Emperor. In spite of everything, she is correct to be extra cautious. 

“Your Majesty, in the event you see that there’s nothing fallacious with it, please signal it.”

“You don’t belief Zhen (me)?” Ji Wu Jue frowned.

Because the Emperor of Dong Lan Kingdom, his utterances carrying an ideal weight and his phrases are holy orders (imperial edict), but this girl, unexpectedly, dare to not imagine him?

Taking a look at Ji Wu Jue’s face step by step darkened,  Lu Yunluo’s coronary heart thudded, fearing that he may remorse his promise, due to this fact she hurriedly stated, “It’s like this, I’ve heard that Your Majesty’s handwriting is as highly effective as a flying dragon; as robust and courageous as a lion, with golden hooks and iron strokes, like floating clouds and flowing water (pure and spontaneous model of writing)… “

Lu Yunluo racks her brains for an answer and he or she used all the great phrases or phrases or lyric poetry she had discovered in her lifetime about handwriting.

“…. The strokes are as magnificent as a swimming dragon. Such very good writing, if not the the primary underneath heaven or greatest on this planet, is unparalleled and uncommon. This servant additionally need to take this chance to acquire the emperor’s signature.”

With such an incredible flattery, Ji Wu Jue’s face did ease so she secretly breathed a sigh of reduction.

It’s actually ‘you are able to do every little thing efficiently with flattery’.
