Je suis née beauté, et je suis suprême

Chapitre 31

"Can't you just behave yourself?" Qian Qing's eyes narrowed to slits, her tone unfriendly.

Honesty gets you bullied. I picked at my nails and said in a pitiful, artificially enhanced tone, "He didn't do anything, did he?" My phoenix eyes gleamed, sparkling. I was seducing him.

Qianqing didn't take my words seriously, her brows furrowed, and her eyes grew even more sinister.

Seeing that he was difficult to deal with, I gave a fake smile, put my arm around his neck, and nuzzled him: "Don't be angry, don't be angry! I was wrong, okay!"

"What do you think?" Qianqing pushed me away, it seemed there was no room for negotiation.

Having no other choice, I had to resort to my ultimate weapon. I pouted, pinched myself, and prepared to cry in front of him.

"Alright, go down now. Don't be so tactless next time!" Huh? That's good, I didn't even cry. All that pinching for nothing!

I happily gave him a kiss: "So sweet!" After the kiss, I noticed a sudden gust of wind rise around me, and the crowd became unusually quiet!

I cautiously surveyed my surroundings. Chou Qian's expression was serious. Zi Mo reached out to pull me, but hesitated to act rashly. Wu Hui's eyes looked like they were about to give birth. The transvestite's reaction was classic; he immediately knelt before Qian Qing and said, "Master, Zi Yi didn't mean it." Wu Hui and Zi Mo followed suit, while Chou Qian stood upright. They all urged Qian Qing to reconsider.

Damn it, I only kissed him, I didn't bite him. If anyone's at a disadvantage, it's me! I don't believe Qianqing is innocent, why is it like I raped him?

I looked at the protagonist beneath me, who was radiating coldness: "Fine, I'll make you kiss me back, don't be angry!" Qianqing didn't give me any face, stood up with a sinister aura, and threw me directly to the ground. I rubbed my poor butt: "I didn't..." sleep with you.

Before I could finish speaking, I felt my real body flying out the window. Zi Mo, the transvestite, tried to stop me, but the distance was too great, and I free-fell to the first floor: Wu Hui, you just wait, you bastard!

I fell down in an undignified and embarrassing manner, causing chaos on the first floor because of my uninvited guest. Several middle-aged men stared at me in astonishment, saying, "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a god descend to earth before!"

I touched the cushion beneath me, grateful for his life-saving grace; otherwise, I would have been in serious trouble as this meat shield. I hope you're still alive.

"How is Xiao Yi?"

"Ziyi, are you alright?"

Two voices rang out at the same time.

I glanced at Zi Mo and the transvestite who had chased after me, then pointed to the unlucky guy beneath me, and said with utter heartbreak, "He's not dead, is he?"

Zi Mo stepped forward, picked me up, and whispered to himself, "When I die, I'll erect a tombstone for him."

The transvestite checked on the person beneath me and said, "It's alright."

Chou Qian followed, but he didn't look at me. Instead, he focused his gaze on the flattened man and called out, "Lord Li?"

"Prime Minister?" The middle-aged men looked at the ugly man as if he were their own father. "Look at Lord Li..."

"I'll handle it," Chou Qian instructed his subordinates, sending the flat piece of paper to the hospital. Several middle-aged men followed behind.

As I watched the departing crowd, I asked Zimo, "Who was it?"

"It should be Li Zhiliang, Lord Li, who has just arrived in the capital."

"I don't know it, I've never heard of it."

Zi Mo led me upstairs: "This time, several meritorious ministers from various regions have been recommended to the capital to fill vacancies. Lord Li is one of them, and also the youngest among them. It can be said that he is the number one talent in our country."

I asked, puzzled, "That's Chouqian's title, right? When was Chouqian deposed? I've never heard of that."

Zi Mo chuckled: "Qian is the leader of the four kingdoms, who said he is the number one in Dongqing?"

"Then...then..." What's going on?! Chou Qian is clearly one of ours! "You'll understand later?" Zi Mo wasn't going to explain it to me. Who cares? Whatever, it's none of my business.

Based on my observations over the past few days, I have found that there is a severe shortage of officials in the court. All six ministries have vacant positions. Qian Qing, that suspicious fellow, does not allow people from various factions to enter, and he himself is short-handed, so the positions remain vacant.

After thinking it over, I decided to help him out. Maybe he'd be happy and give me a promotion. That flat-faced Li is as weak as a lamb; he'll be eaten by someone else sooner or later.

"Lord Wang, I need to request leave."

"Okay, taking leave is good. Young people should take more leave." Wang Xiuyi readily agreed. "How long?"

"one day."

"Is one day enough? How about two days?" Wang Xiuyi carefully tried to figure out what I meant.

"You don't want me to come, do you?!" Damn, that makes me feel like I've accomplished something terrible.

"No, no, Ziyi, I didn't mean that! I was just worried you wouldn't have enough time! I meant well!" Wang Xiuyi hurriedly explained.

I glanced at him indifferently: "I'm going to find that ugly guy, I'll be there in a bit."

"Yes, please take care and give my regards to the Prime Minister."

"Don't you need a gift for a greeting?" I asked him meaningfully.

Wang Xiuyi smiled slyly and pulled out a stack of silver notes: "This is to show my respect to you, and this is to buy a gift for the Prime Minister."

I graciously accepted it and tucked the treasure into my sleeve: "Lord Wang is so diligent in his work, I believe the Prime Minister will definitely take notice of you."

"Thank you, Brother Ziyi."

"Okay, I'm off." Promote you? Dream on! Nobody's ever promoted me!

Having money made me very happy. I bought some peanuts and went to find Chouqian to discuss with him whether it was possible to implement the imperial examination system.

Overcome with excitement and forgetting that we were in public, I yelled at his office, "Chou Qian, come out and greet me! If you let me kiss you, I'll tell you some good news." With a graceful side kick, I blasted open the small door to his office, and seven or eight eyes immediately stared at me with strange expressions.

I stared at them blankly. My worthless reputation was ruined!

I immediately stood up straight and gave everyone a standard lower-ranking salute.
