The second daughter was even more frightened, trembling with fear, repeatedly saying, "I was wrong, I was wrong."
Nan Chen: "..."
To be honest, Nan Chen was speechless.
This girl is especially afraid of him. He has to speak in hushed tones. He really doesn't believe that Mo Yan would do anything. If she really did something, it would be perfectly legitimate and would leave him speechless.
After all, she was his own daughter, so Nan Chen could only speak in a low voice.
"Don't cry, crying won't help. You have to tell me, or what will you do in the future?"
"How can you go to a banquet looking like that!"
The second daughter shrank back again, wiping away her tears with her handkerchief. "Father, it really is my fault. Mother didn't scold me; it was I who made the mistake and I admit it."
Nan Chen: "..."
"Then why did you admit your mistake?" Nan Chen thought there must be a reason, right?
The little girl sobbed for a long time before finally stopping her tears. She didn't dare to look up at Nan Chen, so she lowered her head and held her handkerchief as she spoke.
"I was scared and trembling. My mother asked me what was wrong, if she was scary, and I just thought she was the one who was scary..."
When my aunt is like that, she's angry, and I have to apologize..."
She was still just a young girl, and she told her father the truth.
Nan Chen's expression darkened.
"Who does she think she is, giving you attitude?"
Back then, I told you, "Don't let her support you. Look what she's done to you."
Mo Yan looked at the furious Nan Chen, and then at the people kneeling on the ground.
The moment Nan Chen got angry, everyone knelt down.
"Father..." The second daughter cried again in fright.
Seeing this, Mo Yan interrupted Nan Chen.
"Alright, we should go now. Second Miss, go wash your face and come with us. Just sit behind me and don't worry about anything."
Remember, you are the prince's daughter. You must behave properly, and you can't be crying all the time. What kind of image does that make? You're not just embarrassing yourself, you're embarrassing the entire prince's mansion.
Mo Yan rubbed her head, wondering what was going on.
Nan Chen wanted to kill Li Youyou, but that wouldn't work at the moment, so he could only listen to Mo Yan, "You are my daughter, no one can bully you."
You need to be strong and brave too, you can't keep crying, okay?
The second girl nodded, feeling a pang of sadness, but managed to hold back.
She washed her face and followed behind Mo Yan and Nan Chen, trying to make herself as transparent as possible.
After they arrived, Nan Chen sat down with Mo Yan, followed by the Second Miss. As for Apple and Zhi Yan, they naturally sat a little below the Emperor. The two little ones weren't afraid at all and even greeted them.
The envoys who had previously presented the nine-linked rings puzzle arrived and stood up. "Your Majesty," they asked, "have the officials of the Yun Dynasty solved it?"
The ministers all stood tall and proud, looking as if they didn't take them seriously.
Apple, who was standing to the side, came out with a box and looked at the group of them.
"Are you envoys from the Blue Kingdom? How strange, why did you bring some children's toys to test us?"
Why should we let our country's ministers use their brains when I can solve this with just a little play?
This is what you call using a sledgehammer to crack a nut; why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?
They naturally wouldn't understand these things, but if a little girl said she could, they naturally wouldn't.
Who are you?
The envoy looked at the little girl with suspicion. Why was a little girl here, and why did no one else say anything?
"Your Majesty, why are women allowed to appear in such occasions in your country?"
The emperor was furious! Who did he think he was, daring to speak ill of his darling?
"What's wrong with women? How are women any different from men? Women in Yun Kingdom are just like men. They can study, become officials, and participate in the imperial examinations."
"Guards! Drag this envoy away! He has spoken ill of my granddaughter, Princess Ruoxi. Take him away and give him twenty strokes of the cane. If he's not satisfied, I'll personally go and ask your king!"
The emperor's words shocked everyone.
If the emperor says in front of the envoys and the court officials that women can become officials and take the imperial examinations, then... then isn't that true?
Good heavens, they... they're about to have a major upheaval in Yun Kingdom.
Can they, their daughter, attend?
Ah, wait a minute.
Does the Emperor mean he intends to establish the young princess—no, she was already a princess—as the Crown Princess?
The ministers suddenly felt as if they had discovered something extraordinary.
The envoy was dragged away and beaten outside, howling and screaming.
The other envoys dared not say anything.
Apple looked outside with a smile, without any fear, and remained silent. She opened the box and placed it in front of the envoys.
"These are some of my old toys. You can try them out too."
After all, these so-called treasures you've brought out are just my little toys.
The envoys' expressions turned rather unpleasant upon seeing the contents of the box.
How could this be...?
How could those things strung together be untied? They tried for a long time but couldn't open them, so they could only tell the emperor.
"Your Majesty, we cannot untie this..."
The emperor was pleased and beckoned to Little Apple, "Ruoxi, come here."
Little Apple knew that this was her name, and obediently returned to her grandfather's side, saying, "Grandpa."
