The princess was ordained by Heaven.

Chapter 280 Harmonious Court

Zheng Xun picked up a memorial and carefully read it through, seemingly unaware of Guang Xingchen's panic.

Different ministers require different approaches.

He wasn't particularly fierce or arrogant, so why should Zheng Xun reason with him when he could use force?

After finishing reviewing a memorial, Zheng Xun looked up at him and asked, "Why are you still here?"

Guang Xingchen: "Princess, your humble servant has been here the whole time."

Zheng Xun tossed the memorial aside and said softly, "Am I being too easygoing...?"

Guang Xingchen didn't look up, but he felt a gaze fall on him.

The immense pressure was like a mountain, causing him to fall into a deep quagmire in an instant. He even felt that if he breathed even slightly heavier, he would completely sink in.

He suddenly realized that the person in front of him was no ordinary princess.

That little girl who used to laugh and joke in her heart now holds his, and even the fate of the Great Yong, in her hands.

Realizing the crisis, his reaction was faster than his brain.

"Wei Chen obeys!"

"Go down."

The Imperial Study fell silent once more.

Zheng Xun sighed regretfully.

If only the Second Prince could think straight, his shops would be all over the Great Yong.

If she relies on these industries, it will be much easier for her to spread her influence.

Unfortunately, he never imagined she was referring to the throne.

He also thought that there was no one capable of handling things in this generation of the royal family, so he had to convince himself to seize the throne.

"Zhicheng, have Third Brother come to see me."

Logically, the Crown Prince, the Third Prince, and the Sixth Prince should be assisting Zheng Xun in handling state affairs at this time, but Zheng Xun has spiritual power, so he processes memorials at an extraordinary speed.

So she sent them off to do some practical work.

The Third Prince had just finished a long night working on the task assigned by Zheng Xun and was preparing to go back to rest.

But when he reached the outside of the prince's residence, he caught a glimpse of Zhicheng's figure. He paused, seemingly unintentionally, but in reality, he ran away quickly.

Zhicheng, who witnessed everything, exclaimed, "Third Prince!"

The third prince covered his ears and ran away.

However, he was lacking in martial arts skills and couldn't outrun Zhicheng at all.

Zhicheng clutched his clothes, inwardly condemning his own behavior as "utterly rebellious."

He groaned in pain, "The fortune teller said I'm destined for a calamity. If I escape this one, you can't cause me any more trouble."

Zhicheng didn't let go, and asked curiously, "Why is the Third Prince running away?"

"Did I run? No, I just walked fast."

Zhicheng: Do you think I believe you?

Knowing he couldn't fool them, the Third Prince resigned himself and asked, "Did Yuanjia send you again?"

Zhicheng nodded: "The princess has something to discuss with you."

The Third Prince turned around: "Let go!"

"Aren't you going to run?"

"I won't run."

Zhicheng looked doubtful.

The third prince asked, aggrieved, "You don't believe me?"

Zhicheng immediately let go.

He knew the Third Prince was prone to crying, and he couldn't bear the blame of making a prince cry.

“Zhicheng,” the Third Prince didn’t run away, but put his hand on Zhicheng’s shoulder, “Your princess is not fully recovered yet, but she is working day and night to handle state affairs. Don’t you feel sorry for her?”

"That's why we need the Third Prince and the Crown Prince to help us out."

The Third Prince choked: "I would be willing, but no matter how much others share the burden, she will always find something to do."

Zhi Cheng seemed to be deep in thought.

Seeing this, the Third Prince quickly pressed his advantage: "We should try to persuade them, shouldn't we?"

"Too……"

The Third Prince suppressed the corners of his mouth that were desperately trying to turn upwards.

It's not that he's lazy; it's just that Zheng Xun's arrangements are beyond human capability.

She also said that she would continue at this intensity from now on.

In the past two days, before he could finish one task, another was immediately assigned to him.

In two days, he only slept for a total of two hours.

Yuan Jia seemed completely unaware that he was a human, not a god, and couldn't withstand such torment!

He walked into the imperial study dejectedly. Zheng Xun, seeing his listless appearance, had no idea what had happened.

"Why is it so lifeless?"

The third prince gave her a resentful look.

Not hearing him speak, Zheng Xun asked in confusion, "Who upset you?"

"You! You! Yuan Jia, I know you're very strong, but you should also pay attention to balancing work and rest..."

Zheng Xun understood: "You can't take it anymore?"

"We can handle it."

It's obvious he's just arguing.

Zheng Xun suddenly remembered that the Third Prince and the others were not superhumans and could not withstand this level of exertion.

Her eyes darted around guiltily, then she said righteously, "I know you're tired, so I found you an easy job."

Third Prince: That's wonderful! My sister still loves me!

Zheng Xun couldn't look directly into his burning, grateful eyes. He coughed lightly and said, "The environment at the mine is harsh. I don't know if Second Brother is getting used to it. Third Brother, go and see him and bring him some things. Brothers should chat and see each other more often so they don't become estranged."

I'll also tell him about the situation in the capital to test his attitude.

The third prince did not understand her deeper meaning, but was moved to tears by her words.

Waaah, my sister is like a mother he's never met. She's so busy, yet she still worries about all these little things.

He was still blaming his sister for being too strict, saying she wasn't human.

Seeing his eyes gradually redden and finally brimming with tears of emotion, Zheng Xun asked: "Is this right?"

The Third Prince was too easily fooled, which made her seem like a ruthless and cold-blooded capitalist.

She coughed lightly: "Well, Third Brother, go back and get some rest. Once you're rested, set off. While you're at it, ask the Empress if there's anything you need to bring, and take it with you to your Second Brother."

The Third Prince nodded with gratitude: "Yuanjia, don't overwork yourself."

After coaxing him away with a few words, Zheng Xun felt relieved and quickly threw herself into her work.

Zhicheng adjusted the incense burner, without uttering a single word to advise the princess to rest.

He wouldn't stop the princess from doing things that she liked and that were harmless to her.

……

The days of acting as regent were not actually boring. Although tiring, for someone like Zheng Xun who was even more unwilling to lose power, it was also a kind of enjoyment.

Although some ministers had some minor complaints about her, no one dared to cause any trouble.

In particular, the courtiers of the Dayong Dynasty were quite interesting.

Even when they argue, they can make it so interesting that Zheng Xun treats it like a big show, never stopping them and occasionally even fanning the flames.

This is very similar to that of the emperor.

Occasionally, she would even invite her ministers to join her in gossiping.

Zheng Xun was happy, the ministers were happy, only the person who was in charge of the melon was unhappy.

But it doesn't matter, fortunes change, and today it's my turn.

Zheng Xun treats everyone fairly; no one can escape the fate of being the one to suffer.

Although it was very embarrassing to be exposed, it was hard to be unfamiliar with a group of colleagues who had virtually no secrets, and it was also hard to engage in backstabbing.

The court of the Great Yong Dynasty presented an unprecedentedly harmonious situation.

Of course, while we were having fun and making a fuss, we didn't neglect our serious business at all.

The empty spaces in the imperial court were filled in again.

By eliminating some officials with overlapping functions and reorganizing responsibilities, the efficiency of the entire court has doubled.

The emperor, who had been secretly observing all along, finally felt relieved.

After a period of debate, the ministers finally determined the final plan for the Brown Kingdom.
