Chapter 10, Is Being Single a Crime?

Because he could guess with his backside that this must be a marriage proposal message sent by the 'Federal Merit Children Committee' of the royal family

"Does being single constitute a crime?" he asked softly, then answered himself: "No, it doesn't!"

He may have many bad habits

No! Ling Pingan immediately denied it

But he cannot refuse to answer.

But the problem is that Princess Dazhang is extremely busy with state affairs, and it is said that she has three thousand suitors.

Ling Ping'an picked it up and cut it open

However, there is one point that is very practical

In the Federation, this is the dedicated font for royal messages

Looking at the text message, Ling Ping'an remained silent for a long time before finally sighing: "So, today is already the day for the treasury subsidy..."

If he does not answer, it is likely that this afternoon a royal commissioner will personally come to his door to invite him for tea

is ... ...

Face the gale! The mobile ringtone rings at the right moment

Ling Ping'an fell silent

Their files and existence are classified as state secrets

In that case, I fear that His Majesty the Emperor will have to intervene in your marriage arrangements

He rarely lies, and even when it comes to white lies, he avoids them as much as possible

I am truly afraid that by the age of thirty, you are still not married

To avoid succumbing to temptation and falling into the trap of love

Is it because you are worried about the costs of marriage and childbirth? A gentle female voice coaxed, "Young Master Ling, you need not worry about this!"

Because the game time has arrived

He picked up the phone and called the 'Special Affairs Office for Meritorious Children of the Federal Empire' in the Jiangnan Governorate, launching into a tirade of scolding that left the other party too intimidated to respond.

"What kind of person are you!" she said with a hint of anger, "If it weren't for the fact that you are a descendant of a first-class meritorious service, I would really want to call the Ministry of Finance and ask them to stop your allowances and subsidies!"

You cannot not help, please help...

a thorn in everyone's side

Where can one find the pleasure of writing?

This type of message can no longer be viewed

Here, I can assure you, young master: the Federal Central Authority and the Imperial Royal Family will absolutely not allow the descendants of meritorious officials to be unable to fall in love, unable to marry, and certainly will not allow the children of meritorious officials to be unable to afford education

She quickly answered the phone

a twenty-four-year-old individual who has never been in a romantic relationship and has no record of even a single date

Your Highness ... ..." She bowed respectfully

This is a public service message from the federal government: Dear Federal Citizen—Greetings to you, Mr. Ling Ping'an. Today, your account has been credited: 10,425 yuan. ... The detailed statement is as follows: Federal Class A Merit Child Allowance: 7,000 yuan; Federal College Student Entrepreneurship Subsidy: 3,000 yuan; Federal Class A Merit Unmarried Child Romance Encouragement Fund: 425 yuan

Impressive, but merely the personal secretary of the personal secretary of Her Royal Highness, the Grand Princess.

He never looked again

However, those high-income wealthy individuals and businessmen must confront the notification to pay back taxes to the federal treasury.

is ... ...

Most of the royal family's efforts have been devoted to matchmaking and arranging marriages.

It is like this... The female voice from the phone gently inquired: "I have found that you are already twenty-four years old this year... Is that correct?"

Even if it's just pretending... should we go on a date once?

Currently, the federal monarchy governs with a benevolent hand

... ...

A prolonged silence emanated from the mobile phone

Ling Ping'an's mobile phone and email will regularly receive various messages and emails from the Federal Central, the Royal Family, the Governor's District, and Jiang City

Where can I find game fragrance

In a state of helplessness, he had no choice but to answer the phone

Unless they speak of it themselves, outsiders will never know; those who are aware do not dare to disclose it

All are related to the federal laws of popular science and royal policies

Ling Ping'an quickly shook his head: "No need, thank you!"

Since reaching the age of eighteen and attaining the federal legal marriage age

Among all the children of the Federation who have received first-class merit, you are the only one who has reached the age of twenty-four, yet you have never even been in a romantic relationship...

Isn't it better to spend some time at home playing a few games or writing a few chapters of a novel?

Ling Ping'an could only smile awkwardly as he listened

After hanging up the phone, she slumped into the chair

The "Federal Merit Children Placement Committee" under the Federal Royal Family is indeed an institution directly led by Her Highness Princess Rou'an, the elder sister of the Imperial Emperor.

Upon hearing Ling Ping'an's silence, the other party also fell silent. After a while, she seemed to be quite upset, barely managing to suppress her emotions, and said with some disappointment: "Thank you for answering, I wish you a pleasant life..."

is ... ...

This day is a day of celebration and mourning for all citizens of the Federation

The Fuso beef is truly tender! After happily finishing a large bowl of Fuso beef ramen, Ling Ping'an let out a satisfied burp: "With this Fuso beef, I have no objections to the Fuso Kingdom joining the Federation!"

However, Ling Ping'an did not even take a look and simply turned off the phone

One thousand miles away, north of the Guangnan Governor's District, in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River

In a tall building by the river, a young woman dressed in traditional attire put down the phone with a huff

The 10th of each month is the date for federal central subsidies and tax refunds

Dating and such

At that moment, a red telephone placed on her desk rang

Individuals like Ling Ping'an can happily receive a subsidy without any effort

I am Qin Keqing

However, he soon set this matter aside

Oh... Hello..." Ling Ping'an replied politely, but deep down he did not believe it at all

Ling Ping'an sighed, helplessly picked up his phone, and glanced at the incoming call

Also enjoys preferential treatment under royal policies

At first, Ling Ping'an was quite interested in reading, but when he discovered that each of those bills and policies stated: dating, marriage, having children, and the amount of subsidies provided to you.

Beep beep beep

Her Royal Highness, Princess Rou'an, is the direct leader responsible for implementing this policy

At that moment, the phone in his pocket vibrated with a text message notification

Do you need me to introduce to you the legislation regarding the children of first-class meritorious individuals and the relevant policies of the royal family?

I will take care of the matter as soon as possible, Your Highness, please rest assured

I have found that over the past three years, the Governor of Guangnan has sent you invitations to the Federal Meritorious Children's Matchmaking Conference seven times, yet you have not attended even once

The majestic imperial capital stands tall by the banks of the Yangtze River

Unfortunately, she cannot

There is no way; she can only do one thing—transmit the pressure downward

How could a personal secretary possibly make a call to someone so insignificant?

Hello! A gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone: "Young Master Ling, I am Qin Keqing, the personal secretary of Her Imperial Highness, the Grand Princess of the Empire..."

Hello! I am Ling Ping'an

"Is it really that difficult for you to be in a relationship?" she asked resentfully

Hmm... Ling Ping'an furrowed his brows, displaying an expression of grave concern.

Blind Date Conference

In fact, according to the legislation of the federal center and the specialized policies of the imperial royalty, as soon as you begin dating, falling in love, or even getting married and having children, your subsidies and allowances will continuously increase

Is it because I have not encountered an ideal partner all along

The children of first-class meritorious individuals are not only protected by federal legislation

After a while, a text message in yellow font appeared on Ling Ping'an's mobile screen

To a certain extent, after granting privileges to those with merit, providing good service for their lives and families is currently a fundamental policy of the royal family and one of the functions of the federal center

However, his refusal to look does not mean he can escape the pressure of marriage

She reached out to pick up a file placed on the desk, opened it, and gazed at the young student in a bachelor's gown, wearing the traditional imperial cap of advancement, who was smiling, unable to suppress a feeling of gritted teeth.

The other party gently responded with an "mm..." and said, "I have also retrieved your health examination reports from last year and this year; everything is very healthy..."

After watching it, Ling Ping'an feels that he might not be able to resist temptation and truly embark on the irreversible path of blind dates and marriage

He picked up his phone and rushed into the canyon

Indeed, it is the dedicated phone line of the 'Federal Merit Children Committee' under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Imperial Royal Family of the Federal Empire, 404100

Time flies so quickly, and before we know it, it is already the 10th!

Moreover, lying to the royal family is subject to legal responsibility

Among the orphans of the Empire's first-class meritorious service, you are the only one who has reached the age of twenty-four yet has not reported a romantic relationship..." A soft female voice, with a hint of suspicion, inquired: "Young Master Ling... do you have any health issues?

Ding ding ding

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Ling Ping'an put down the receiver and sighed

"Young master..." she asked, "Why don't you date?"

If possible, she would fly to Jiangcheng herself, capture this damned otaku and throw him into the blind date program of Jianye Satellite TV, letting twenty-four female guests tear him to pieces—after becoming a first-class meritorious figure, it would be enough to drive those gold-digging women crazy

After a long time, that gentle female voice finally came again: "Young Master Ling... your actions put us in a difficult position..."
