"Who to push down?"

Jiang Qingqing followed their example and put her hands behind her back, then stood beside Jiang Chen, looked up at the naughty boys, and asked suddenly.

The soft girl's voice was out of tune with them, but some people were slow to react and actually responded to her here.

"Of course it's Han Qiming. We just heard the conversation between the Second Prince and the Princess in the palace. It was that man who caused our Third Prince to fall into the water!"

These words were sonorous and powerful, and Jiang Qingqing nodded in understanding and stood there.

As the young man was talking, he gradually came to his senses. They all looked at the little baby who was half the height of Jiang Chen. They all jumped back and scattered as if frightened.

"Your Highness, class will start soon. We need to review in advance. Bye."

A few people with more introverted personalities bowed and slipped away quickly, leaving only one or two brave ones.

"Your Highness, won't you speak up for our Third Prince? He is the culprit."

Jiang Qingqing's eyes fell on the man. He didn't look familiar and should not be Jiang Chen's study partner.

"Complaining about injustice? How has the Third Prince been wronged? Isn't there a punishment? What kind of injustice is this young master complaining about?"

She has a petite figure, but her back is straight, and she carries herself with a righteous demeanor. Her innocent and penetrating eyes do not convey the questioning in them in a way that is intimidating, but one can feel the pressure from them.

The man suddenly became panic-stricken, and his eyes were wandering around.

Jiang Qingqing stared at his guilty conscience, took a step forward, looked him straight in the eyes, and asked frankly: "Sir, please answer my question."

"Your Highness, you all know that it was Han Qiming who pushed you into the water, not the Second Prince."

Jiang Qingqing chuckled. Her sweet voice should have been used to ask some innocent questions, but in Jiang Qingqing's case, it was used as a question.

"Do you know that if the Third Prince is really instigated by you and publicly lets Han Qiming fall into the water under the pretext of speaking out for justice, what can Han Qiming do?"

"What are you doing?" the man asked in a guilty and panic tone.

Jiang Qingqing curled her lips and said calmly, "He will use the fact that the prince of Tianqi oppressed him as a handle to accuse Li Guo and His Majesty. You are a student of the Imperial Academy, and you should have heard a little about the direction of the government. Do you think that the two countries that have just settled the war can still resist each other?"

"We, the people of Tianqi, are strong, so why should we be afraid of Li State, which we have lost to before?!" The man seemed to have grasped a solid reason, and suddenly his words sounded a bit firmer.

Jiang Chen stood aside and looked at Jiang Qingqing's small body, but every word she said was logical. This figure... looked so familiar to him, who did she look like?

Jiang Qingqing looked at the innocent and brainless boy in front of her and laughed out of anger, with a hint of sarcasm on her sweet face.

"Where do you put Xiangguo, who live on the grassland? Don't they know how to watch tigers fight from a distance? Don't they have brains to think of the truth that even a seven or eight-year-old child can understand?"

"What..." The man staggered a step. He was completely convinced by Jiang Qingqing's remarks. Even though the five-year-old little princess in front of him looked at him with sarcasm, he could not find a suitable theory to refute her.

It was as if the princess in front of him had countless great truths waiting for him.

Jiang Qingqing saw that the other party had surrendered and that he was not deliberately trying to incite Jiang Chen, so she restrained her confrontation a little.

"Sir, if you don't even understand the principle of the mantis in front and the oriole behind, don't say you are a student of the Imperial Academy once you leave it."

Jiang Qingqing snorted, turned around, grabbed Jiang Chen's fingers and walked away.

Jiang Chen looked back at the shocked boy. He said to Jiang Qingqing with some concern, "That boy is the young master of Duke Fengchen. It's not good for you to offend a civil servant duke like this, right?"

"No matter if he was flattering you or Feng Chen, he was wrong to encourage you just now. As a minister, you should do your duty. How could he ask you to take the lead without knowing right or wrong? Is this what a minister should do?"

When Jiang Qingqing said this, she stopped angrily. She and Jiang Chen stood by the lake, facing each other.

Small body, big temper.

Jiang Chen was stunned by her yelling.

"Do you know that if you really attack Han Qiming, can Han Qiming do anything to you?"

"What?" Jiang Chen really didn't know.

Jiang Qingqing almost couldn't catch her breath, and he still had the nerve to ask what was going on! ?

"Of course they will throw dirty water on you first and force you to have a reputation of bullying the hostage. Does that sound good? It definitely doesn't sound good. Think about it, good news doesn't go out, but bad news travels a thousand miles. How do you think the people of the world and the officials in the court will view you?"

Jiang Qingqing stretched out her chubby palm and stretched out her fingers one by one.

"They will think that the Third Prince of Tianqi is arrogant and bullies the weak because of his favor. He has a cruel temper. Oh, you also have to be prepared for the speed and exaggeration of this group of people spreading your rumors."

"Tell me, between the two points of bullying the weak and having a cruel temper, which one can you withstand?"

The barrage of rebukes made Jiang Chen lower his head and dare not look up.

In this situation, the usually stern face suddenly appeared in Jiang Chen's mind.

——Uncle!

He said that he always felt that the imperial sister's aura was so familiar.

Isn’t this just a smaller version of the Emperor’s uncle?

"Speak!" Seeing that the other party didn't even make a sound, Jiang Qingqing lowered her voice and gently scolded.

Jiang Chen responded subconsciously, "I can't bear it."

"So do you understand this? You can't just listen to the ideas of everyone around you. It's good for them to come up with ideas, but you have to make your own judgment on what's good and what's bad."

Jiang Qingqing earnestly explained to this naive and simple-minded imperial brother the principles of life.

Jiang Chen nodded. He took the words to heart, but...

"But Han Qiming did bully me. I can't just swallow this vengeance, right?"

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiang Qingqing, his handsome face filled with an expression of unwillingness.

Seeing that he still had some life in him, Jiang Qingqing nodded in satisfaction, her cunning expression vividly visible, and she smiled softly.

"Brother, if we can't do it openly, can't we learn from him and do it secretly?"

Jiang Chen met his sister's fox-like smile and suddenly understood her thoughts tacitly.

The two people quickly put their heads together with the same idea and discussed in a low voice how to implement this matter.

Little did they know that Xiao Linting, who happened to be standing at the window of the side hall, overheard it...
