Chapter 191 is interesting.



After communicating with both sides, the matter was resolved.

The old nanny Liu in the mansion agreed not to teach him manners anymore and waited patiently until four days later to return to the palace to report back.

The princess, as she wished, submitted the names of the talented women.

Yin Zhe couldn't help but offer his advice:

"Sixth Prince, things have just begun, and we cannot abandon them now."

It would be best if you told me in advance what to prepare next.

Qin Zhaoyue didn't even glance at her.

"Don't you know what needs to be prepared? You've already prepared everything, why would you need me?"

Regardless of the methods used, His Majesty's initial plan must be to include all the talented women of Fengjing in the imperial examination system.

In other words, even if they don't take action themselves, the follow-up plan has already been prepared.

Damn it, this isn't about needing her to solve the problem, it's about needing someone to take the blame.

She, the absurd and ridiculous sixth princess, who could be more suitable for this role than her?

It's also Qin Zhaoyue's fault for being so slow.

When I saw her off this morning, I was thinking to myself that my older sister had gotten too big for her britches, but it turns out she's gotten quite big for her britches too.

During the disaster relief efforts, he offered numerous suggestions and solutions, resolving crises in times of crisis. He became so self-satisfied that he genuinely believed himself to be someone important.

Pooh!

In Fengjing, a place where everyone in officialdom is cunning and calculating, acting recklessly would likely result in being devoured without a trace.

Qin Zhaoyue realized this too late, but fortunately she managed to cut her losses in time and barely managed to extricate herself from the situation on the surface.

Thinking about it, I really feel wronged. My mother just casually threw out the benefit of not having to attend court, and that it was only for this year, and she felt at ease sending her into this mess.

Having figured this out, Qin Zhaoyue now dislikes Yin Zhe for his eyes not being eyes and nose not being nose.

Hearing these words and seeing her posture, Yin Zhe knew clearly that this person had probably already figured out the cause and effect.

But could she understand that this was also a test set for her by His Majesty, or rather, a lesson he had missed over the years?

Judging from the results, they were quite perceptive and their responses to the situation were timely.

But given his temperament... Yin Zhe felt there was really no need to teach him much.

Just then, someone came to announce that the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince were visiting together.

Qin Zhaoyue shrank her shoulders upon hearing this.

From the perspective of the third sister, what she did was indeed not very ethical.

Originally, she hadn't planned to hide. After drugging the person and giving their name, she would just pretend it was a plan made by the three sisters together, without mentioning anything about it.

But they changed their minds at the last minute and pushed the blame onto the third sister.

However, on the other hand, the third sister holds the title of the person in charge.

If the matter is successfully completed, he will definitely be the one with the greatest merit, and will most likely be granted the title of Prince.

On the surface, it was just a small achievement that prevented Princess Shuofeng from winning the provincial examination, but the real merit behind it was far greater.

Qin Zhaoyue could think of two options: first, to force officials and gentry to support the women's imperial examinations; and second, to tie herself to warships to fight against local powerful families.

Any one of these achievements could rival the merits of disaster relief and flood control, so why shouldn't he be granted the title of Prince?

So what if I have to shoulder a little more burden for this? It's perfectly reasonable, isn't it?

That's how Qin Zhaoyue comforted herself.

He turned to the side, his large rear end facing outwards, and said, "I'm not at home, let them go back."

Those around him had grown accustomed to his ability to lie through his teeth, and in the end, they still pushed Mo Yi out.

After all, she was the leader of the Mo Group, and as for her superior...

Suimo said that she had just offended the palace maids and nannies, and that she couldn't be made to shoulder all the blame.

So, Mo Yi reluctantly ran ahead.

That damn doorman has learned to use the excuse of needing to pee; now he runs away on his own without needing to be reminded.

"Your Highnesses, my master is not at home."

"Who are you kidding? You're back but she's not?"

"Your Highness is indeed not at home."

"Then tell me, where did she go?"

"I don't know."

"So you don't know? Get out of the way!"

"Hey, we can't go through, we can't go through..."

Mo shouted at the top of his lungs, but he didn't actually do anything.

Are you kidding me? Two imperial heirs, who are you to stop?

Anyway, she did as her master instructed, and what did it have to do with her if people didn't believe her and insisted on barging in?

Having just been here, Qin Zhaowan knew the way very well and rushed towards the back.

Qin Zhaoshu remained as indifferent as ever, as if he were truly just a follower.

They ran and shouted all the way into the backyard.

"Zhaoyue! You must give me an explanation today."

Qin Zhaowan didn't dwell on the deception and went straight to the most important issue.

"Third sister, don't be angry."

Qin Zhaoyue glanced coldly at Mo Yi, but unfortunately, the other party had kept his head down since entering the courtyard, and their eyes did not meet.

"I had no choice, so you should ask her about this instead of me."

He pointed to the side with his left hand, but Yin Zhe was nowhere to be seen.

Qin Zhaoyue: ……

So what if you're at the Divine Martial Realm? You can just disappear like that. How rude of you.

"Sixth Sister..." a sinister voice rang in my ears, "Are you playing around? Are you playing around?"

Having no other choice, Qin Zhaoyue could only give a brief, piecemeal account of the situation.

The two listened quietly and then fell silent.

Qin Zhaowan wasn't really that angry; she was just putting on a show to force her sixth sister to tell the truth.

Otherwise, given her personality, she might have gone on for a long time.

"So, the Empress Mother also issued a decree to you?"

Qin Zhaoyue scoffed, "Is that what you want me to do? It's what you want me to take the blame for."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Zhaowan's face darkened, and she leaned closer, bending down to meet her eyes.

"So, Sixth Sister, you've figured out Mother Empress's intentions, and you're pinning all the blame on me, right?"

His expression and tone carried a hint of gritted teeth.

Qin Zhaoyue blinked her innocent big eyes and said, "Third sister, your makeup looks so beautiful today."

"Stop changing the subject, tell me the truth, what's the next plan?"

"What plans could I possibly have? His Majesty has already laid them all out for me."

She must have a well-thought-out plan; I'll just be a figurehead.

"Are you just for show? Ah! Now I am just for show, I'm the one being pushed out as a cover, a shield."

"I can't just guess, can I? Why don't you go to the palace and ask, Third Sister?"

"I have a question for you..."

Qin Zhaoshu stood to one side, just like Yin Zhe from before, completely out of place in the scene.

That's really daring... calling the Empress Dowager "old lady" and complaining that she's plotting against him?

But the third sister must have realized it too.

The remedial or corrective measures could have been directly told to them.

If you really want to use Xiao Liu as a shield, you don't need to make her understand your intentions from subtle clues; all you need is for Xiao Liu to be present at the literary gathering.

Moreover, that commander of the Xuanji Guard had been following Xiao Liu around all along.

The third sister wanted to use force to extract the truth, but Qin Zhaoshu...

A rare ripple appeared in his usually cool eyes.
