Chapter 18 Can women participate in the imperial examination?
The emperor: I haven't said anything yet, why is she directing and acting on her own, and her crying is so ugly.
The emperor frowned, asked someone to stand up and said: "The court can speak freely, Xiao Fang, my dear, don't be sad, get up quickly."
Hearing what the emperor said, Fang Lingchu's face instantly bloomed with joy, and said to the system in her heart: [Our wise and powerful emperor is too kind, hahahaha, he has such a good temper and is also good-looking. I will never complain about him in my heart again. ]
The system said: [Your emperor is very good. If it were any other emperor, you would be dragged out and beaten with a stick. ]
Other adults: If it were them, this would be the end, but if someone is Xiao Fang, then it would be fine.
Fang Lingchu agreed with the system's words very much, and once again praised Emperor Chongde in her heart.
Fang Lingchu praised Emperor Chongde a little bit, but her next words made Emperor Chongde unhappy.
[How could such a good emperor still destroy the country? I feel so sorry for my emperor, wuwuwuwu.]
Emperor: You don’t need to say the rest.
Then Fang Lingchu said something even more heartbreaking [He worked hard to govern the country, but he died of exhaustion in the end, wuwuwuwu, my emperor. There are so many princes and princesses! Why can’t you give them some, and there are so many court officials.]
That’s right, Fang Lingchu saw that the emperor died five years later.
Emperor: Why can’t he avoid this deadlock?
Then he looked at the prince and the court officials, not knowing what they were thinking.
Everyone heard the emperor’s deadlock again, and they knelt down in fear.
Fang Lingchu saw everyone kneeling, and subconsciously knelt with them, and began to complain in his heart again.
[What’s wrong with this unlucky emperor? Why is he angry again?]
Emperor Chongde: Didn’t she just say that she doesn’t care about me?
The emperor glanced at the armrest that he subconsciously pinched and was a little deformed, and he was very dissatisfied.
But he still blocked the armrest with his clothes.
But he was also a little helpless. Can people really not fight against heaven?
The emperor asked them to stand up, and then said: "The matter of the women's special examination will be discussed later."
Fang Lingchu heard the emperor say this and returned to his original position.
The emperor glanced at the adults below and said: "Do you
have anything else to report?" Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and there was nothing else.
Only Fang Lingchu's voice was muttering: [Guagua, why do you think the emperor is so stingy? He said yesterday that he would give me a grace and agree to whatever I want. I didn't ask for a lot of gold, but just gave women a chance.
He can't do such a small thing, and he still has the nerve to say that he can do whatever I want. If I ask him for money, he won't just take back the order. The emperor is really a dog. 】
Minister Fang: Now I feel a cold neck every day when I go to court, and my heart is up and down every day.
Everyone: Your Majesty, it was Xiao Lord Fang who said you are a dog, not us, so don't let innocent people suffer.
The emperor felt that if he died that day, it must be because Fang Lingyan was angry.
However, he was a person who never showed his joy, so no one could tell whether he was sad or angry.
The emperor comforted himself and asked, "Lord Fang, you saved me yesterday. I said I would give you a favor, but now I have thought it over."
Emperor Chongde looked at Fang Lingyan with his eyes, and the meaning was very clear, don't talk about the women's imperial examination anymore.
Fang Lingchu curled her lips and glanced at the prince, saying, "Your Majesty, I want to be your daughter."
The emperor looked at Fang Lingchu and sighed in his heart. He actually intended to let Fang Lingchu be the crown princess, but seeing Fang Lingchu's resistance, he couldn't force her to be the crown prince.
It would be bad if it backfired. Anyway, her life is now connected to their country Yue Jinlong, and she will protect the dragon country.
Minister Fang looked at his daughter in surprise. What is she going to do?
Seeing that the emperor above did not reply for a long time, Fang Lingchu began to get angry: [Guagua, look, I know that this dog emperor is stingy. He doesn't give me anything he wants, and he still asks me for something...] He
started to try the Cricket Emperor again. He looks like a good girl on the surface, but he is a bitch in his heart.
Seeing that the emperor did not answer, Fang Lingchu asked tentatively again: "Your Majesty, is it not possible?"
The emperor pretended to think to cover up that he had just been distracted.
The emperor, the beloved of the old father, really worried about the crown prince.
Then he secretly gave the Prince's tutor a look.
The Prince's tutor wanted to not understand the look in His Majesty's eyes, but the emperor was looking at him, and the prince was also looking at him, so he had no choice but to stand up.
"Your Majesty, I think it is not in accordance with etiquette for Xiao Fang to ask for the title of princess."
Fang Lingchu was a little dissatisfied. She spent ten years of her life to save the emperor. She just wanted a princess title. How could it be against etiquette?
"Although Xiao Fang saved Your Majesty, this is what a minister should do. If she is made a princess just because of this merit, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among other princesses and meritorious ministers. Please think twice."
After saying this, the Prince's tutor did not dare to look at Fang Lingchu, and could only apologize to her silently in his heart.
But for the sake of the prince, he could only do this.
After all, Fang Lingchu's voice saved not only the emperor, but also so many people in Longguo, and found out some people who colluded with the enemy in the court. She had such achievements after only a few days in court, and she was fully qualified.
Alas! These achievements cannot be said openly, and the emperor wants to give the prince a chance.
Fang Lingchu wanted to refute, but she felt that the other party was right. She was so upset that she was so angry.
Fang Lingchu could only go to the system to ask him: [System, who is this old man?]
The system scanned and said: [The Prince's tutor Ji Fanyu, used to be the companion of the previous emperor, then the emperor's teacher, and now the Prince's tutor, the father of the imperial concubine.]
Fang Lingchu glanced at the Prince's tutor and asked: [This is the legendary veteran of three dynasties. Isn't there a lot of people in his 60s who still have to go to work at this age?]
The system said: [In ancient times, the body and hair were given by parents, and he had a beard, and he was a teacher, you know. He just looks older, but he is actually in his 50s.]
Fang Lingchu glanced at the emperor, then at the Prince's tutor, and compared the two. Okay, she will respect the old and love the young.
Fang Lingchu said angrily: [Since he is so old, I won't bother with him.]
Seeing that Fang Lingchu was really not angry anymore, the emperor glanced at Eunuch Gao.
This should not be considered as a refusal, and it can give the prince another chance.
Eunuch Gao went to get an imperial edict: "The Emperor of Heaven and Order proclaims that Fang Lingchu, the daughter of the Fang family, is virtuous and kind... After a bunch of praise, considering her meritorious service in saving the emperor, she is specially conferred the title of Princess, and given the title of Anding. She shall be given a fief of 1,000 households and the fiefdom of Hanyang."
