"The former, right? I knew you were the kind of princess who got everything for free by relying on your father. But I prefer the latter, because everyone is equal. As long as you work hard, you can change the fate of the entire family. Most importantly, there will be no collective punishment. The father is the father, and the son is the son. If the father does something wrong, it will not affect the son's future at all, so everyone can start over."
"Nonsense, do you know me? You think I'm incapable? If I could choose? Of course I would choose the latter, because there are many things, and most importantly, I don't like to get something for nothing, so I worked so hard to learn the knowledge of hairpins. Do you understand me well enough to judge me without authorization?"
"Princess, are you saying that you also live in an equal society? But why don't you do things in this way?"
"Then, isn't it because I want to win more? I'm more purposeful. Isn't that a bad thing?"
"Winning is a two-sided thing. When it comes to family, it's just fun. When it comes to outsiders, it's about ambition. When it comes to competing with things, it's called blocking."
"After all, you think I haven't gotten to the stage of wearing the hairpin because I'm afraid of you?"
"No, Princess, you're focusing all your attention on the hairpins, worrying about embarrassing yourself. This is a gamble in itself, because the hairpins require a lot of exquisite hairpins. You don't need to be afraid, because those hairpins of yours are full of gems, but you're worried about everything. It's like you're gambling again, thinking I'll come up with something better and defeat you."
"Wearing a hairpin is a skill that comes with practice. Ji Nianqin, don't take yourself too seriously. You're trying to teach me a lesson in a roundabout way. Do you think I'm not as good as you?"
"Your Highness, you should be more confident. You seem so conceited and always care about what others think of you. Maybe it's because you're a princess, but you can't let go of your pride and yet you still have to wear hairpins for the concubines. In fact, you are resisting it in your heart, aren't you? That concubine is very beautiful, but she looks dull in front of you. What does this mean? You often criticize them, right?"
"What do I say about them?"
"Because your mother is the empress, the empress can't say anything, but you can. You will use your ability to wear hairpins to force the concubines to be your models, and then convey the empress's will, and even intimidate them. Do you really think this is right? When we competed, all the concubines were present, which is a rare thing. If you were truly democratic, there would definitely be concubines who would not come for one reason or another. After all, people are not gods."
"What do you mean? I forced them? Well, I'll find them all now and see if I did."
"They will definitely say they don't have any in front of you, but they can't escape my logical analysis."
"Logical analysis ability? What the hell is that? I've never heard of it. Why do you always come up with these weird things? Is it because I said you're not innovative?"
"Yes, I don't agree. Logical analysis is the most difficult part of the reading comprehension section of the college entrance examination. It tests all kinds of knowledge, including experimentation, so that students can finally understand the true meaning of this sentence. There are also many wrong answers. Even if I tell you, you still don't understand. People like you who didn't take the college entrance examination are worse than me who tried hard but was not allowed to go to school..."
