Chapter 89 The Empress is a Thousand Years Old

Li Wei finished the judgment himself with a few strokes of the pen.

He said loudly: "In compliance with the imperial concubine Zhao's order and according to the law, the Englishman Smith is sentenced to death. The others consider him an accomplice and are sentenced to fifty lashes and sent back to the country. They are not allowed to enter the Qing Dynasty again."

Someone in the crowd shouted, "Empress Zhao is wise!"

"Yes! Concubine Zhao is so good! This is how she should be punished! Tell them to do evil again!"

"Your Majesty, a thousand years old!"

"Your Majesty, a thousand years old!"

The common people reacted and shouted after them. There were also some women inside, with tears streaming down their faces: "If only the empress had come earlier, the man who killed a thousand swordsmen in my family would not smoke this damn cigarette!"

"Your Majesty is so beautiful!"

Zheng Yuanning was stunned for a moment amid the roar of the mountains and the tsunami.

He is extremely sensitive to sounds.

If he heard correctly, the people who were leading the shouts of "Empress Zhao is wise" and "Empress Qiantai" seemed to be in a restaurant on the street.

Chi Xia's ears were filled with all kinds of "Empress Qiantai", and her head was buzzing non-stop.

——Main mission: Obtain 10,000 popular support (21,980 points collected) and 5,000 military support (32,999 points collected).

——Task status: It has been exceeded. The rewards have been distributed. A total of 10,000 points have been distributed, and a world hydrological distribution map. The military and people's morale has been exceeded twice as much. The charm of the master is really unstoppable! The system is proud of you!

——Side mission 1: Find out the source of opium, time limit is 180 days.

——Task status: Completed, rewards have been distributed.

——Optional task of conquering: Conquering "Sea King", no time limit, optional.

——Task status: Completed, the owner can choose two rewards from the prize pool.

Chi Xia selectively ignored those disgusting rainbow farts.

When I heard the announcement of the bonus points for the main mission being 10,000 points, I thought I was hallucinating. When I opened the system panel, I saw that it was actually 10,000 points!

Even the happiness index has jumped a bit, almost to one-fifth.

She couldn't help but want to share it with Yongzheng. Ten thousand points! Enough for ten consecutive draws!

The system is ridiculously generous!

But when she looked at the second-floor window, there was no one there.

Seeing that she was about to be pushed by the cheering crowd, Zheng Yuanning pulled her and finally squeezed out of the crowd under Li Wei's escort.

Chi Xia was pulled by him to run for a few steps and laughed heartily: "Have you lost all your anger? Are you not worried about the smoke anymore?"

Finally, I am willing to give her a hundred percent progress. It is not easy for her to achieve this progress.

Zheng Yuanning's eyes wandered: "I wasn't worried in the first place."

Chi Xia didn't care about his duplicity: "If you don't, then you won't. As long as you are satisfied."

They went out through the back door of the government office and took the guards back to the navy camp.

Seeing her relaxed and happy face, Zheng Yuanning was a little hesitant, but he still quietly pulled her sleeves and avoided the guards: "Just now... I heard that it was the emperor's people who first called Zhaobi Yingming, the empress is a thousand years old.

Something like that.”

Chi Xia said "Oh": "What's the matter?"

Zheng Yuanning said with a look of resentment: "Think about it for yourself."

Why would an emperor in his prime want to build momentum for his concubines in the harem? It’s not like he was about to pass the throne to his son when he was 80 years old.

Besides, she didn't have any children yet, so he felt something was wrong no matter how much he thought about it.

Chi Xia was looked at by him with a "Are you an idiot" look for a while, and finally realized: "Are you worried about me?"

Zheng Yuanning blushed and glared at her: "Anyway, be careful."

Chi Xia couldn't help but laugh. Recalling what he just said, she felt that he was a bit too cute.

This young boy was initially shocked by Yongzheng's "smoking ban" plan, and immediately gave Yongzheng a degree of submission of fifty or sixty.

Now I may be "impressed" by her hard work for so long, and I'm starting to worry about her again.

It's like a child worried about his parents fighting and getting divorced. He worries about it day by day.

Chi Xia couldn't tell him her system mission, nor could she tell him that they had actually discussed it. She could only nod her head repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll remember it. Don't worry."

Zheng Yuanning didn't know what kind of medicine they were selling in the gourd, but seeing that she really understood what he meant, he said no more and turned to leave.

Chi Xia grabbed him and said, "Don't run away yet. How is your father doing now? Can he be sober on a daily basis?"

Zheng Yuanning said "Yeah": "It's better than before."

After all, someone took turns watching him every day, and he was fed well with good food, drink, and medicine. His father couldn't touch the big smoke, and couldn't even hear the word "big smoke," so he finally looked like a human being.

Chi Xia nodded: "I'll go take a look with you."

Zheng Yuanning was a little awkward, but obviously full of hope: "It's better to wait until he gets better. If he gets better, knowing that so many people have seen him when he's crazy, they might want to beat me to death."

Chi Xia didn't force himself, chatted with him for a few words, and then said: "Then when he is awake, you can also discuss with him about going to the capital to study with us."

Zheng Yuanning raised his eyebrows: "When did I agree to go to the capital with you?"

"Didn't you agree?" Chi Xia laughed with him: "Then I seem to have heard it, I don't care, you have to come with us anyway."

Zheng Yuanning snorted, but did not object. He walked her to the entrance of the small courtyard with the guards, turned around and ran away.

When Su Peisheng heard the voice, he came out with a tea tray and lowered his voice: "Empress, Mr. Li and the merchant envoy Zhang Xin are inside."

She was delayed for a while talking to Zheng Yuanning just now.

Li Wei has already tied up Zhang Xin and brought him back.

Chi Xia took the tea tray in his hand and saw that it was actually a bowl of porridge: "I'll take it in."

When Yongzheng saw the important ministers, he never avoided her. Su Peisheng was not here to stop her. He only reminded her: "Your Majesty has not had a meal since he got up early. Please give me some advice."

"I know." Chi Xia was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that the efficiency of the "humanoid work machine" also depends on squeezing time.

Not long after Li Weigang arrived, he was still reporting to Yongzheng on the inspection of Zhang Mansion.

When Yongzheng saw Chi Xia coming in, he motioned for him to wait and asked Chi Xia, "Why are you here?"

"I'm cooking porridge for you," Chi Xia lied and said confidently: "I was delayed for a long time, so you can reward me."

Yongzheng was helpless, knowing that Su Peisheng must have muttered to her, but with her staring at him, he could only take it and drink it spoon by spoon.

Chi Xia snorted with satisfaction before sitting down next to him: "I'll change hands with you and let me ask a few questions."

Yong Zheng smiled and made a "please" gesture.

Chi Xia raised her eyebrows at him and turned to Li Wei: "I'm sorry, Mr. Li, please continue."

Li Wei didn't dare to look at his master's face at all: "I searched Zhang Xin's official residence, two houses in Fuzhou City, and a garden, and found 1,300 taels of silver, as well as various antiques, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, totaling 500 taels of silver.

"

Chi Xia:……

Yongzheng was a good boss. Although he required high abilities, he also paid generously. The salaries of officials in the Yongzheng Dynasty were still considerable.

A merchant envoy's family only has less than 2,000 taels in total.

Is this an official with cool sleeves discovered?
