Thinking of this, Fu Mingchi suddenly became unhappy. He stood there with a gloomy look in his eyes, leaving Zhu Wencai confused.
After a while, Fu Mingchi suddenly spoke up and ordered, "Rush back to Yuezhou overnight and notify all government offices in Yuezhou to hold additional examinations for the county school, prefectural school, and provincial examinations."
“…”
Zhu Wencai was completely bewildered: "Your Highness... Your Highness, the Spring Examination just ended. Logically, the county and prefectural examinations should only be held next year. Why are there suddenly additional examinations now?"
Fu Mingchi lowered his eyes and thought deeply: "This prince wants to compete with the students of Yuezhou and pass the imperial examination within a month."
"?" Zhu Wencai was completely stunned.
What is going on, Your Highness?
Why take the exam for no reason and get your name on the list of successful candidates?
"Your Highness, have you been stimulated by something?"
Zhu Wencai cautiously advised, "You are a member of the royal family, the King of Yuezhou. Even the number one scholar chosen by the emperor is not half as noble as you. Why bother going through this hardship? Besides, we can't hold the palace examination, so how can we get our names on the list?"
"Stop talking so much and go now."
Fu Mingchi rolled his eyes at him unhappily. Zhu Wencai looked up at the sky. Fortunately, it was a moonlit night, suitable for traveling. He immediately went out and called a group of people to ride away on horseback, exhausted.
Listening to the sound of horse hooves gradually fading away, Fu Mingchi returned to his room with satisfaction. After taking a bath, he lay on the bed, thinking about his wedding with Wan'er in a month. He was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
Holding the blue handkerchief, Fu Mingchi kept looking at her, recalling her appearance when he first met her and every time they were intimate. He could probably feel that Wan'er cared about him.
Just thinking about the fact that she only regarded him as the most beautiful courtesan, Fu Mingchi felt uncomfortable and did not sleep until dawn.
Hearing the noise outside, he slowly stood up. Seeing Yan Jin and Yu Bai coming in from outside, he gathered his thoughts.
"Your Highness, is your injury healed now?" Yu Bai stepped forward and asked with concern.
Although he was not fatally injured, Yu Bai was exhausted after the battle with the pirates. He stayed in the camp for many days and only got out of bed this morning.
"No problem."
Seeing that he still looked sick, Fu Mingchi patted his shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Your injuries haven't healed yet. Stay in Qizhou to recuperate for a few more days. By the way, help me get rid of Guan Qing."
The Pacification Commissioner stationed in Yuezhou is a scourge, and the Yuezhou soldiers and civilians have long hated him. Yu Bai nodded happily and said, "Your Highness, don't worry. I will make sure he leaves cleanly."
"How can we let him go cleanly?"
Fu Mingchi pointed out: "Gu Tingchen is so anxious to get rid of Xue Jiu, just to put an end to the situation as soon as possible, but I will not let him do so."
Yu Bai and Yan Jin glanced at each other, and immediately realized that His Highness was going to play a big game, and they listened quietly to his arrangements.
Fu Mingchi continued, "The Pacification Commissioner's Office has too many secrets. Guan Qing was once Xue Jiu's confidant and knows a lot. All you need to do is create the illusion that he committed suicide out of fear of punishment, and then spread the evidence of corruption among Pacification Commissioner's Office officials that we have collected over the years. Lin'an will surely fall into turmoil."
Yu Bai understood immediately: "Once the news of Xue Jiu colluding with pirates gets out, Prince Yan will definitely be implicated. If Prince Yan can find out that Xue Jiu abandoned the city at Gu Tingchen's behest, he will definitely use this as a threat to Gu Tingchen in order to seek protection from the Gu family. Then the two of them will fight each other, which will be a real show to watch."
Fu Mingchi thought about it and nodded.
He knew that it was impossible for Queen Mother Gu to punish her good grandson based on the fact that Gu Tingchen instructed Xue Jiu to abandon the city, but it was easy to overthrow Prince Yan.
Once Gu Tingchen and Prince Yan fall out, he will probably have no time to take care of his wedding with Wan'er, and he will be able to prepare for the wedding with Wan'er properly.
Thinking of this, Fu Mingchi led Yan Jin out of the door with peace of mind.
In front of the courtyard, Ye Wanshu and Mu Qingqing were about to get on the carriage. When they saw Fu Mingchi, Mu Qingqing stopped and whispered, "Sister Wan, my cousin is feeling better now. Please stay with him. I'll ride with you."
Ye Wanshu glanced at the three carriages parked at the door. One belonged to her stepfather, and the rest belonged to her and Zhao Yingying.
Mu Qingqing and her cousin weren't on good terms to begin with, so Ye Wanshu couldn't bring herself to put them together. She took the girl's arm and smiled, saying, "It's okay. The carriage at your residence is spacious, and staying together won't affect your cousin's recovery."
Hearing this, Zhao Yingying immediately became unhappy and rolled her eyes at Mu Qingqing in disgust. She immediately came forward happily and was about to invite her cousin to ride with her, but Fu Mingchi jumped on the horse with a cold face and rode away first.
Everyone was stunned.
Ting Feng leaned in front of Ji Yuan and asked blankly, "Your Highness, what happened? Wasn't he fine last night?"
"He must be crazy." Ji Yuan sighed silently, got on the carriage and ordered his men to set off.
Although she didn't win over her cousin to ride with her, she also didn't get the chance to get that little bitch from the Ye family. Zhao Yingying pouted at Ye Wanshu, gloating as she boarded the carriage, shouting, "Let's go back to Yuzhou."
Ye Wanshu and Mu Qingqing exchanged a look of confusion. Seeing that everyone had already set off, Tao Anran gripped the reins tightly and whispered, "Young Master, Miss Mu, let's get going quickly."
Ye Wanshu got into the carriage thoughtfully, but she couldn't figure out why Fu Mingchi suddenly became so cold.
Could it be that because I accidentally touched him last night, I really broke him?
This is a bit too stingy.
After all, she is the daughter of the Prime Minister. Doesn’t she have any face?
Thinking of Zhao Yingying's smug expression just now, Ye Wanshu felt even more unhappy.
