chapter 9

It's another morning in the Jin imperial palace, to summarize the previous events, our emperor Ming , got poisoned by his doctor, So he executed him , and now he's left without an imperial physician, So he took advantage of a useless paragraph in a corner of a history book to find out the name of a doctor who was mentioned only once and somehow make him his royal physician , However, it later turned out that this doctor was none other than Jian Ye, the grandfather of the Seventh Princess and the father of the Sixth Concubine ، And the person behind Yaobin's medical talent (the granddaughter).

and after a long argument with his parrot , physician Jian is finally in the imperial chamber trying to cure the emperor Jin ( our Ming) .

" Ooh ! ....there there there... exactly like this!!....ooooohh....so comforting 🤤 "

" Can you stop making those disgusting remarks! " The physician Jian said in an annoyed tone

" Sorry uncle Jian , but your treatment is very comforting and pleasing, I can feel all the tiredness and stiffness go out of my body "

" Of course you will , I am the most talented physician in the world, and stop calling me uncle!...I am not your uncle!! "

" Well.. uncle Jian.. practically you are the father of my wife, which makes you, my father in law ...or I can just call you uncle 🤷 "

" YOU !...."

Jian's words where interrupted by a knock on the emperor's door followed the voice of a guard saying :

" Your Majesty, the head of the palace maids requests to see you on an urgent matter. "

Ming raised an eyebrow at the sudden interruption , then looked at the doctor who look back at him and said:

" Let her in "

An old woman enters, wearing an outfit similar to the other maids' outfits, but more luxurious and dignified ، she kneel before the emperor and once he let her stand she starts complaining:

" Please forgive my forwardness your majesty but this It's getting unbearable "

The confused look was clear on Ming's face

" Please keep going head maid , what happened? "

" Your majesty, the maids can't take it anymore , One of them can't even walk in the hallway without feeling anxious and scared, even the guards can't intervene or do anything , that didn't happen just once , but so many times! It used to be rare and infrequent, but now it happens all the time and frequently"

" Wait wait wait a second, head maid , what is that thing that keep happening frequently !? "

" It's the third prince your majesty! He keeps harassing the maids , he go back drunk every night and pick on every one in his way , the girls are so scared and can't do there jobs properly, please do something "

Once he heard that , something flashed in Ming's memory , it was said that most of the Jin empire 's brilliant was due to his talented sons , but he also has one or two who deserves to be called a trash .well.....many of the princes wasn't as he ..... .... expected...but this one , was a garbage In every sense of the word.

The third prince Jin Feng , the son of the forth concubine yu munan , a womanizer, Drunkard, filthy arrogant, spoiled brat , despite his posh, handsome and strong appearance , he was one of a terrible character.

(" The typical trash prince, that should exist in every dinasty 😒" )

Ming thought to to himself before answering the head maid :

" I understand your trouble head maid, but don't worry, I will handle it, I can't let my people suffer even in the hands of one of my sons ".

"This old and humble maid thanks the emperor for his kindness and care, I will take my leave now to intend the rest of my work "

As the maid bowed and left the room , Ming looked at the physician once, then turned his gaze towards the door and ordered one of the guards :

" Bring the third Prince here to me "

At that moment, Mind was still on the couch with the doctor practicing acupuncture on his back, and both of them where carrying this is stupid and bored expression 😐

" Raising 20 kid isn't that easy huh?😏 " Jian said sarcastically

" ..."

" Spending 10 years of your life raising a kid then sending hin to another one, isn't easy either, right? "

" OUCH!! ...." You can tell that this was a needle that had been stuck too far into Ming's back....On purpose

" Your majesty, the third prince is here , should we let him in ? "

Ming's cry of pain was interrupted by the voice of the guard asking for permission for the third prince , which Ming granted, allowing him to enter the room and bow to the emperor politely but annoyedly in his face.

ming's POV:( Long blonde hair, hazel eyes, tall and muscular body, harmonious face with small nose and chiseled chin, stately and masculine appearance with a gait full of dignity , and the character...")

" How are you doing son ? "

" why the hell did you call me ... your majesty "

Ming thought to himself with an annoyed face: (" Is this his usual tone ? , this perverted brat !" )

The physicien leaned to Ming's level and said with a bored expression :

" This son of yours is drunk your majesty, all his body signs indicate this 😑"

" I see ..."

After that Ming tried to talk And consult with his third son but he's drunk state made it very hard as he starts rebelling and making trouble which made him call the guards to take and descipline him .

As they left, Ming was still on the couch with this bored expression, his eyes half closed and his hand under his chin supporting his head when he said unconsciously :

" With this appearance, marrying him to the bride of the century would be a very easy matter. But with his personality... ....aaahhh ... (sighed heavily) What a shame. "

" A blond women with green eyes and elegant appearance from a specialized musical art family , it would suit him perfectly ....so unfortunate " the physician said caressing his chin with a thoughtful look .

At this very moment Ming looked at the physician who looked back at him , they glanced at each other for a couple of seconds before both of them turned their heads awkwardly.

Later that day, the doctor finished his treatment for the day, allowing Ming to resume the rest of his duties as emperor. He was now in the throne room with his ministers to discuss the affairs of the country , when someone unexpected enters the room.

" The second prince is greeting his majesty, I have finished the task assigned to me and I have come to present the results to your highness "

(" My second son ?... did I oppoint him in any task?....haaa ( he sigh heavily) ..I have to play along... again...")

" Welcome back my second son , please keep talking "

" Yes your majesty, I was appointed in a mission to the borders To go and check our relations with neighboring nations. According to the border's Guards, there were no border problems all year except for one of the huge and powerful Berber tribes that had considerable influence in the eastern part of the continent , their tribe was aiming to expand its lands due to overcrowding, which prompted them to encroach on some of our lands and to threaten some small villages on the borders, They also do not care about the laws of exchange and sometimes intercept our trade caravans. "

The emperor nods his head in understanding and caresses his beard .

" And what did you do about it? "

" Well your majesty....I tried to talk to them to find a solution , the " LANG DUi " tribe as you all know, isn't something to miss with, our nation is indeed very strong and capable, But it is better to keep such a tribe under our control, considering the benefits we might reap. "

The ministers looked at each other nodding in agreement at the Second Prince's words which seemed to make sense, as the prime Minister " Jian gao shu " stepped forward to make a comment in front of the ministers and the Emperor.

" The second prince's words are very true, our empire have always been talking advantage of those tribes , in managing the bandits and keeping a certain distance and and barrier from the hostile nations ، they never was that hard to deal with before, so maybe we can make use of this opportunity to rebuild our relationship and trick them into helping us far into the future ."

" Very true prime minister, that would be a good opportunity, so what did you tell them, my second son ? "

("This not a bad idea at all, making a deal with the Lang Dui tribe would save me so much worry about Border problems and I would have more time to focus on my problem, Fortunately for me, the second prince, who is talented and skilled at negotiating and attracting people to his side, has taken on this task.")

Ming's serious and stoic face managed to hide how happy and excited he was to have this burden removed from his shoulders, and he had even regained some of his lost hope in his princely useless sons, all thanks to the Second Prince.

" Well , your majesty...A mere prince like me has no right to stand up for such important negotiations, so I had no choice but to invite their delegation to come to the imperial palace and conduct negotiations in your presence "

You can imagine how Ming's face changed at hearing the second prince's statement .
