On the other side, Zhou Siren, who returned to the mansion, recovered from his shock, and the words Yun Yaoyao said kept ringing in his mind.
His eyes became more and more obsessed, and he didn't even hear the waiter announcing meal time outside the door.
After a long time, Zhou Siren returned to his senses: "It's not that simple to build water conservancy projects. It will take at least several years. Not to mention the long-term maritime transportation in the future. This is unrealistic and I can't think about it anymore."
But Yun Yaoyao's words got into his ears like flies again.
Zhou Siren was shaken: "How can you know if you can do it if you don't try? Besides, the Imperial Master has said that your Majesty can succeed. Once successful, the benefits will be so huge..."
"No! What if His Majesty made this up? He deliberately revealed it to him in order to win over him and let himself be used by him willingly!"
"Although His Majesty is cruel, he is not a villain. He should not borrow the title of National Master. It is not like such a magical overseas world can be fabricated..."
In this way, Zhou Siren, with thousands of thoughts and tangles in his mind, casually took a few mouthfuls of rice and went to bed early to rest.
Lying on the bed, he tossed and turned but couldn't calm down. He didn't close his eyes until early in the morning and fell asleep.
In his sleep, he actually dreamed of the magical black race that His Majesty said. They were all black-skinned and could not be seen at all in the darkness. Only their big white teeth could be seen.
And after he walked into the darkness in a daze, as he walked, a large mouth suddenly appeared in the distance, with white teeth, opening and closing, talking rapidly.
"People like Zhou Siren, Lou Jianshan and others who are causing harm to the country and the people will fall sooner or later. Please vote for a new master as soon as possible!"
"Although Your Majesty is poor now, you have unlimited potential if you follow him. When the canal is opened in the future, the benefits from north-south trade will be huge, and sea transportation will bring countless gold and silver treasures!"
"Zhou Siren, are you sure you want to miss your Majesty's mountain of gold and silver that will be countless in the future?"
"Your Majesty has said that he appreciates your talent very much, so just follow him!"
A pair of snow-white teeth swirled and danced around Zhou Siren's head, and Zhou Siren looked horrified.
"Just obey him! Jie Jie Jie!"
Ah ah ah ah ah! ! !
Zhou Siren woke up from the nightmare and sat up suddenly, with a cold sweat breaking out on his back.
At this time, all he could think of was the weird scene and the phrase "Just obey him, Jie Jie Jie!" playing on a loop.
He was so frightened that he took out the golden lump hidden under the pillow and hugged it to calm his shock. After a while, Zhou Seren thought to himself after wiping away the tears at the end of his eyes with his knuckles.
Or...just obey His Majesty?

As the morning light faded, there was another round of remonstrance and criticism in the Xuanzheng Hall.
After going to court, Yun Yaoyao dragged her tired body to Yun Ning Palace where Tu Shanjin was located.
Getting up early to go to court was really a torturous thing. She had to go to the Tyrant's Palace to show off several plates of delicious pastries to comfort her little heart full of resentment!
As soon as she stepped into Yun Ning Palace, Yun Yaoyao shouted in a refreshing voice: "My beloved concubine!"
Seeing such an energetic expression on his usually cold and intimidating face, Tu Shanjin was still a little unable to accept it.
He retreated, looked away, and asked about business: "What was said in the court today?"
Yun Yaoyao explained the situation reported by the ministers in the imperial court, and added: "The canal construction has officially started. Lou Jianshan was sure that the project would fail midway and there would be no profit, so he didn't pay much attention to it. It’s convenient for us.”
"By the way, Long Yingwei came to report that Lou Jianshan's bad reputation has spread among the people, and some literati have privately criticized him. It seems that Di Shunzhi's Newspeak book is good."
"Zhou Siren's attitude seems to have relaxed a little. At the Autumn Festival in three days, watch me give him a strong dose of medicine!"
As soon as Tu Shanjin heard Yun Yaoyao's words, he knew that she had another bad idea in mind.
He couldn't help but look at Yun Yaoyao's treacherous expression, took two deep breaths, and discussed the next action decision with her.
After it was over, Yun Yaoyao was half full after eating snacks, and let out a long burp without any image.
Looking at the mountain embers on the ground makes me feel sad again.
His image of the nine-fifth supreme being was sooner or later destroyed by Yun Yaoyao.
Yun Yaoyao didn't know about the little Jiujiu in Tu Shanjin's heart. She pulled Tu Shanjin's hand over and put it in front of her to look at it carefully.
"How's it going? Does your hand still hurt?"
At that time, the evil tiger scratched such a big gash. It hurt so much. Fortunately, it didn't hurt her.
"What did the imperial doctor say? How long will it take for this injury to heal?"
I don’t know if there will be any scars. She must not leave any scars on her beautiful hands!
Seeing Yun Yaoyao's distressed expression, she put his hand in his arms and stroked and rubbed it, and the warm touch kept coming.
Tu Shanjin's arm stiffened and he quickly retracted his hand, his expression quite uncomfortable.
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury."
Yun Yaoyao was anxious: "How can this be a minor injury? Don't be stubborn. You must listen to the doctor's instructions, take good medicine and change the medicine, and heal the injury as soon as possible, so that I can feel relieved!"
Men generally don't care whether they leave scars or not. Yun Yaoyao was afraid that this dog tyrant really didn't take this body seriously, so she repeated the precautions mentioned by the imperial doctor several times.
Yun Yaoyao was always angry at him for provoking him, but now she suddenly showed such sincere concern, which made Tu Shanjin even more uncomfortable, and he didn't know what to say in reply.
Tu Shanjin's eyes flashed back to the moment when Yun Yaoyao galloped towards him on horseback and leaned down to hold his hand, and his heart moved slightly.
In the past, many people around him wanted to kill him. For the first time, he experienced the feeling of someone lending a helping hand to him when he was in danger.
During this period, Yun Yaoyao also cooperated with him to handle the court affairs in an orderly manner, and even solved his worries several times.
Perhaps, this exchange is not a bad thing...
"By the way, for your safety, you must have a personal maid who is trustworthy and good at martial arts to protect you in the future. Who is suitable?" Yun Yaoyao thought seriously.
Tu Shanjin looked at her worried look and became even more convinced of what he was thinking.
Or perhaps, this female life and death book also showed some sincerity to him in daily interactions.
If Yun Yaoyao knew about Tu Shanjin's psychological activities at this moment, she would definitely yell at him that he has an intracranial disease, and his brain is a disease!
While the two of them were having their own thoughts, an excited and rough voice rang out from their ears.
"Miss!!!"
Yun Yaoyao looked up in surprise, only to see a body as huge as a mountain running towards this side, the flesh on its face trembling slightly, just like the trembling ground beneath its feet.
The trained guards behind him drew their swords and chased after him, but they failed to catch up for a while.
Yun Yaoyao exclaimed: "What a mountain eagle that spreads its wings and flies high!"
Xiao Wuzi was frightened when he saw this scene, but he still shivered and stood in front of Yun Yaoyao.
"Bold slave, how dare you..."
Before he finished speaking, the small figure was shot three meters away by the mountain.
Falling to the ground with a thud, Xiao Wuzi felt that his whole body was about to break.
Yun Yaoyao sighed again: "What a ferocious strength!"
It wasn't until she ran in front of Tu Shanjin that Niu Xiuer leaned over and pressed her big face against his arm with concern: "Miss, I heard that you were injured. Xiuer was very worried. I will come over to see you after you recover. Okay, is it still hurting, Miss?"
Tu Shanjin immediately withdrew his arm. Facing the affectionate mung bean eyes, he was filled with disgust: "Get out!"
When Niu Xiu'er was about to cry sadly like a moo, Yun Yaoyao came over in time and interrupted her: "Your name is Xiu'er?"
It was the first time that Niu Xiu'er saw such a handsome and mighty face. She couldn't help but froze on the spot: "Ah... yes, my name is Niu Xiu'er. Just call me Xiu'er."
Yun Yaoyao sighed again: "What a strange name."
The little eunuchs had already helped Xiao Wuzi up, and he angrily ordered the guards who came over: "If you dare to offend me and be so disrespectful in front of His Majesty, take her down!"
The guards were about to take down Niu Xiuer, but Yun Yaoyao shouted to stop.
"It doesn't matter, please step back first, this person is of use to me."
Seeing this, Xiao Wuzi and others obeyed the order and retreated.
After Niu Xiuer realized who the person on the opposite side was, she immediately knelt on the ground and apologized: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please forgive me! Just now, I saw that the young lady was too excited and bumped into you. This is all my fault and has nothing to do with the young lady!"
Yun Yaoyao lowered her head and stared at the back of Niu Xiuer's head, her eyes flashing with hot light.
Didn't the best candidate appear at this time?
She was as strong as an ox, and could directly throw Xiao Wuzi away. She ran like a leopard, and even the carefully trained guards could not catch up with her due to her sudden burst.
The most important thing is that she was loyal enough that the novel briefly touches on the ending of this personal maid who grew up with "Yun Yaoyao".
After the news that "Yun Yaoyao" was beheaded at the palace banquet came back to the Yun family, she went out of her way to kill more than thirty servants and maids of the Yun family who had insulted the master and the servant. Finally, she was driven away when she assassinated the Yun Li family. The guards who came fought back.
Of course I have to accept such a loyal servant with such a powerful force!
Tu Shanjin understood Yun Yaoyao's thoughts as soon as he saw her expression. He frowned and refused: "No."
Yun Yaoyao enlightened him: "Is there a more suitable candidate than her? Your safety now is very important, think about your three lives and three lives."
"In the next life, you will be reincarnated as a floor tile in the new Xiongnu palace, and in the next life, you will be reincarnated as a sow..."
"Stop talking!" Tu Shan Jin's mouth twitched angrily.
"That's right. From now on, I will let Xiu'er serve you personally. You can also practice with her when you exercise, and teach her the rules in the palace..."
Yun Yaoyao kept giving instructions, and Niu Xiuer's face was red with excitement. Looking at the faces of these two people, Tu Shanjin closed his eyes.
He had a premonition that the peaceful days in the future would disappear...
