Sheng Wanwan circled Yang Luo once, her small face gradually turning serious. She stopped in front of Yang Luo and looked up at his face carefully.
Yang Luo felt a little uncomfortable under Sheng Wanwan's sharp gaze, but he still tried to remain calm and let her scrutinize him.
A moment later, Sheng Wanwan spoke. Her voice was no longer as childlike as before, but carried a maturity beyond her years.
“Uncle Emperor, when I look at Yang Luozhi’s face, I find that his eyes are shifty and his gaze is uncertain, which is a sign of his guilty conscience.”
His brows are often furrowed, resulting in many wrinkles between them, indicating a deep and calculating nature. Narrow spaces between the brows suggest that this person is not broad-minded and is prone to holding grudges.
Furthermore, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, but it gave off a forced, insincere feeling, indicating that he was hypocritical and adept at concealing his true thoughts.
As soon as Sheng Wanwan finished speaking, the court was in an uproar.
Yang Luo's expression also turned ugly. He stared wide-eyed at Sheng Wanwan, as if he couldn't believe that a little girl could see through his personality so accurately.
“Furthermore,” Sheng Wanwan continued, “Yang Luo has high cheekbones, which is a sign of an excessive desire for power, and he may resort to any means to climb the ladder.”
"In conclusion, Your Majesty, I believe this person is not suitable for an official position."
As soon as Sheng Wanwan finished speaking, Yang Luo's face darkened instantly. He hurriedly defended himself, saying, "Your Majesty, please investigate. Although I yearn for fame and fortune, I have no intention of harming anyone, nor do I have any thoughts of being an official who is not upright."
Your Majesty, you cannot jeopardize my career based solely on the words of a young girl!
Just as Yang Luo was urgently trying to defend himself, Grand Tutor Feng slowly stepped forward. His face was calm, but a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes. After bowing to Si Nantian, he began to defend Yang Luo.
"Your Majesty, Yang Luo is a man of exceptional talent. His literary skills and wisdom are highly regarded among scholars."
"We cannot easily dismiss his abilities and future based on the goddess's one-sided account." Grand Tutor Feng's voice was firm and powerful, clearly advocating for Yang Luo.
He glanced at Sheng Wanwan and continued, "Although the goddess is exceptionally talented, she is still young, and her judgment may not be entirely accurate."
"Your Majesty, as the ruler of the nation, you should be able to distinguish right from wrong. You cannot allow the words of a mere child to jeopardize the country's great talent."
As soon as Grand Tutor Feng finished speaking, the court erupted in uproar once again. Some ministers nodded in agreement, agreeing that Grand Tutor Feng was absolutely right.
Some ministers also looked displeased, feeling that Grand Tutor Feng's words were a bit excessive, what did he mean by saying that the goddess's judgment might not be accurate?
Do you want to try it to see if it's accurate or not?
Sheng Wanwan's face tightened; this Grand Tutor Feng was none other than Prince Rui's faction.
However, because he held a high position and was an important member of Prince Rui's faction, if he were to be harmed, Prince Rui would definitely be on guard. Therefore, the emperor told Sheng Wanwan not to "calculate" about this person for the time being.
Otherwise, she would have already exposed that old man's shameful deeds...
Si Nantian remained calm. He gave Grand Tutor Feng a deep look before slowly speaking, "Grand Tutor Feng's words are not without merit. Wanwan is young, and her judgment may be biased. However," he changed the subject,
“Wanwan’s ability to read faces is an innate talent, and her previous judgments have all come true. Therefore, I believe that her opinion deserves attention.”
Upon hearing this, Grand Tutor Feng frowned, clearly displeased with Si Nantian's decision. He coughed lightly, and several ministers immediately stepped forward.
Not all of these ministers were part of Prince Rui's faction, but since Grand Tutor Feng was the head of the civil officials, they naturally had to give him some face.
"Your Majesty, Grand Tutor Feng is absolutely right. Although the Goddess is exceptionally gifted, Yang Luo's talent is not to be underestimated. He is brilliant in writing and exceptionally intelligent; he is truly a rare talent. We cannot ruin his future because of the Goddess's one-sided statement!" A minister spoke passionately, clearly indignant on Yang Luo's behalf.
Several ministers echoed this sentiment, expressing their approval of Yang Luo's talent and their doubts about the goddess's judgment.
The court immediately erupted in discussion, and the atmosphere became tense.
Sheng Wanwan looked at the ministers who were supporting Grand Tutor Feng, a mocking smile appearing on her small face. She cleared her throat and said loudly, "Since you ministers are so skeptical of Wanwan's physiognomy skills, then Wanwan has no choice but to speak up."
She first pointed to the minister who had just given such a passionate speech, "Judging from your appearance, you were born a man, but you have a fetish for wearing women's clothes. You often sneak off to wear women's clothing when no one is around. Moreover, you are attracted to men. Several handsome young servants who serve you are your male lovers, is that right?"
As soon as Sheng Wanwan finished speaking, the court fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on that minister.
The minister's face turned deathly pale instantly. He stared wide-eyed at Sheng Wanwan, as if he couldn't believe that his secret had been seen through by a little girl.
"You...you're talking nonsense!" he stammered in denial, but the panic on his face betrayed him.
A burst of snickers rang out in the court. Even Si Nantian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. He really didn't know about this minister's hobbies. He never expected that this seemingly serious man would be so playful in secret!
Sheng Wanwan smiled smugly and turned to the next minister, "You, although you are outwardly respectful to the Grand Tutor, actually harbor quite a few complaints about him. You feel that he takes advantage of being the Emperor's uncle's teacher to act arrogantly and form cliques all day long. You don't actually want to be complicit with him at all! Isn't that right?"
The minister whose name was called was instantly stunned. He looked at Sheng Wanwan in horror, as if he had seen a ghost.
