Emperor: "..."
"That’s right, I didn’t understand at first either, but later, after Wu gentleman pointed it out, I realized that Your Majesty had long planned to govern personally.
As for Empress Dowager Xiao, her nature is not one to compete for power, so she must have personally nurtured Your Majesty to handle state affairs as soon as possible.
And when she felt the timing was right, she set me up like this!"
The Emperor just touched his nose.
"Mother never told me how she trained me. When handling state affairs, she wouldn’t let me go to bed earlier than her. Moreover, every day I had to review the memorials she had gone through, after she slept, and memorize them.
Every day I had to look at the family history of the ministers in the court!"
At this moment, Minister Lin wanted very much to give a thumbs up to that woman in the harem.
The Emperor was very guilty because he was unable to truly memorize all these things.
But he had a good study companion!
Ji Youze had an eidetic memory, and he could always use his own method to help the Emperor remember, gradually assisting in supplementing the knowledge later on!
"After you helped Li Xu, did you do anything else?
How much effort did you put into Liu Yuheng’s affairs?"
The Emperor continued to ask.
Minister Lin sighed. He had already spoken for the most part, and speaking or not speaking about Liu Yuheng’s matter wouldn’t affect him much.
"Liu Yuheng’s position was moved a month after Li Xu took office. At that time Li Xu was a central secretariat adviser, when all of us were troubled over the appointment for the Governor of the Southwest Road, Li Xu suddenly quietly suggested a person to me - Liu Yuheng!"
The Emperor closed his eyes. "Got it, my chief of civil officials, actually..."
"At first, I disagreed, but Li Xu privately wrote the memorial for me, and it still had my notes on it.
I was so frightened my back broke into a cold sweat and asked him why he did it, and he told me that Wu gentleman had prepared it.
Wu gentleman said that as long as I submitted this memorial, he guaranteed I would absolutely have to do nothing in the future!"
"I steeled my heart, and even knowing the matter of Liu Yuheng being posted to the Southwest Road wasn’t simple, I still agreed!"
When the Emperor heard this, he asked Ji Youzhi, "What did Li Xu confess to?"
Ji Youzhi nodded, "Perfectly matched, that part fits."
The Emperor then looked at Ji Youze, "Are there any clues about the Li Family’s elder?"
Ji Youze said, "There should be soon, as long as he existed, there will definitely be traces!"
"When Youzhi interrogated Li Xu, did he ask who that elder from his family was?"
Ji Youzhi coughed and said, "Actually, I have a suspicion!"
"Oh?"
The Emperor and Ji Youze both looked at him.
"I boldly speculate and cautiously verify, according to Li Xu, that elder from his family has always been shrouded in a black cloak, never showing his true face, so I wonder if this could be another Wu gentleman."
The eyes of the Emperor and Ji Youze widened!
Ji Youze suddenly had a flash of inspiration, with a glimmer in his eyes and said.
"If your hypothesis can be confirmed, then everything makes sense."
"What makes sense?"
Ji Youze looked at them and only said two words, "Suisui!"
"Suisui?"
The Emperor and Ji Youzhi were bewildered!
"You forgot, last summer, Suisui was almost buried alive, and the location where she was about to be buried was special."
The Emperor suddenly jumped up from his seat, "Borrowing fortune!"
Ji Youze reminded him, "That was a national fortune!"
The Emperor sat back down heavily.
"So the greatest use of this chess piece from the Li Family is that Xunyang had long predicted, the destiny child would be born into the Li Family!"
"Not only that, but among the two children born in the same year and month in the Li Family, he accurately knew who the true destiny child was!"
Ji Youze was quite relieved, glad that the visions he saw on the reincarnation disk as a child. So after obtaining the bell pendant that appeared in the reincarnation disk, he sent it to his mother, asking her to pass it to Suisui!
If he hadn’t had that opportunity when he was a child, all of Xunyang’s schemes would have succeeded!
"How did he know that the true destiny child was Suisui?"
The Emperor began to murmur softly.
Ji Youze shook his head, "That you have to ask him."
Ji Youzhi said, "I’ll go capture the person!"
Saying this, he was about to leave the Imperial Study, "Ji Youze held him back.
"You probably can’t!"
Ji Youzhi: "?"
Ji Youze said, "He has connections everywhere, and now we are not sure whether he is a clone of Xunyang or if he truly practiced witchcraft, so you can’t!"
Ji Youzhi became restless on the spot, "If I can’t, then tell me, who can?"
