However, just as this girl showed a happy smile, Lin Yi, who had already closed his eyes, suddenly opened them wide.

This action startled Leng Yu so much that she hastily closed her beautiful eyes.

Not only that, but after closing them, her heart continued to beat rapidly, to the point that Lin Yi even noticed it.

Leng Yu truly didn’t expect, didn’t expect that Lin Yi would suddenly wake up.

At this moment, she was unexpectedly as flustered as a child who had been caught doing something wrong.

She was afraid that Lin Yi would scold her.

But what surprised Leng Yu was that even though Lin Yi opened his eyes, he didn’t say anything, nor did he pay any attention to her, but allowed her to continue holding him.

And as for Lin Yi at this moment, the reason he opened his eyes was that something suddenly came to his mind.

Just as he closed his eyes again, Lin Yi remembered that he is now the You Wang of Dayou Kingdom.

Moreover, one of the most important things is that he had to hold morning meetings every day.

Oh, no, it shouldn’t be called a morning meeting; it should be referred to as a morning court.

Under his command, there were so many ministers waiting for him, and now every morning, around four o’clock, he had to get up for the morning court.

This had become a routine, but since he had just taken on this role, he was still not quite used to it.

That’s why he completely forgot about it today, and even when the sun was high in the sky and he opened his eyes, he hadn’t remembered it yet.

It wasn’t until he was about to close his eyes again for a short nap that he suddenly remembered it.

In that moment, Lin Yi’s mouth curled into a helpless, wry smile; it seemed that today’s morning court was not going to happen.

Even though he wouldn’t be holding the court, he couldn’t just continue sleeping, as those people probably wouldn’t leave without seeing him, right?

They would definitely be waiting in the Imperial Council Hall, waiting for him to hold the morning court with them.

After all, that’s the authority of a king. Without seeing the king, who would dare to leave rashly?

Leaving without permission, who knows if it would anger this new emperor?

If they angered the emperor, who could say whether their heads would stay where they are?

That’s why Lin Yi could only shake his head with a helpless smile.

Feeling the weight on his body, he reluctantly reached out, slapped the other party’s butt, and then said:

"Alright, get up now, stop pretending. I have some matters to attend to. If you don’t want to get up, feel free to sleep a bit longer."

Having her butt slapped by Lin Yi, Leng Yu shivered all over for a moment.

Then, her lovely face instantly blushed, and in her heart, it was as if a little deer was bouncing around.

But since Lin Yi had already exposed her, she was too embarrassed to continue pretending to sleep.

So she unwillingly opened her eyes and shyly took a glance at him, noticing that Lin Yi was looking at her with a smile, making her face even redder, the blush reaching her ears.

However, Lin Yi didn’t pay much more attention to her. He removed her feet from his body and then got out of bed.

Since this girl had been clinging to him, Lin Yi slept in his clothes that night.

That’s why, after getting out of bed, he simply straightened his wrinkled clothes and stepped out, not forgetting to say to the lingering Leng Yu:

"I have things to handle this morning, go have some breakfast on your own, don’t wait for me.

Also, I probably won’t be back in the morning; the earliest I’ll return is in the afternoon.

As for finding a venue, let me handle it as I mentioned yesterday, you don’t have to worry. Just lead everyone to quickly resume normal production and life, helping everyone come out from the shadow of war, that’s enough.

Alright, that’s all I have to say. I’m leaving now, see you."

After speaking, without considering whether Leng Yu behind him heard him or not, he stepped out of the room.

Then, an Iron Man battle armor instantly formed around him, and with a leap, he flew directly toward the direction of the Capital City.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the Kyoto Imperial Council Hall, he found that the hall was in a state of chaos, with all the officials waiting there and not a single one daring to leave.

Even though nearly four hours had passed since the morning court was supposed to start, no one dared to leave.

After all, in a monarchy, the You Wang’s order is paramount. Without the You Wang appearing, who dares to leave?

Or rather, without the You Wang’s permission, who would dare to leave?

They could only stand there, waiting for the You Wang to hold court.

Moreover, even if among these guys, many hadn’t had breakfast and were now hungry, no one dared to say anything.

They were only discussing among themselves about why the monarch hadn’t arrived yet, or talking about the tasks at hand and such topics.

When Lin Yi arrived at the hall, his sudden appearance startled everyone, causing the noisy crowd to fall instantly silent.

One by one, they all turned their gaze towards Lin Yi and then bowed in greeting.

In response, Lin Yi gestured for everyone to rise and then stepped forward to sit on his exclusive throne, now donned in a brand new Dragon Robe.

However, as he glanced at everyone, what he was pondering inside was whether he should change the system of court meetings, because holding court at such an early hour was simply inhumane.

Waking up at four in the morning for court, that means he has to get up at least by half-past three.

Doing such a thing is doable for one or two days, but if it continues for long, he fears he won’t be able to keep it up.

Not just him, how many of these ministers could actually keep up with that?

Didn’t you see that most of the old fellows below are already in their sixties or seventies?

At that age, to attend a court at four in the morning every day, meaning they would have to get up by two at least.

It’s ridiculous to expect these old guys to manage that consistently.

Moreover, Lin Yi knew something even more important in his heart.
