She thought the Chief Justice was an old man.
It was a bad idea.
Wen Yu said with some regret: "Get up, are you tired of kneeling?"
"I, a humble official, have not been strict in my administration and I should be punished."
"People only have two eyes. Can they stare at the bottom all the time? Just like me, I thought you were an old man. The thought of this makes me heartbroken!"
Jiang Qi:?
Wen Yu shook her head and sighed. Thinking of something, she asked, "Some time ago, didn't a lot of people bring an old lady to report to the police? They said that the whole family was killed by thieves?"
Jiang Qi paused when he heard this and asked, "How did the princess know?"
Wen Yu shrugged: "I asked them to come. That old lady is just a scammer."
Jiang Qi: ...
Thinking of the chaos in the Dali Temple that day, Jiang Qi's face was speechless, and then he became serious.
His tone became unusually serious: "Forgive me for being frank, but as the eldest princess of this dynasty, I think that even if you are uneducated and incompetent, you should at least understand the functions of the various departments of the court."
"The Dali Temple is not a government office. It does not accept complaints from the public. Reports should be made to the Shengjing prefectural governor. Only major cases that they cannot handle will be transferred to the Dali Temple."
"Princess, what you are doing is totally causing us trouble."
Wen Yu: ...
Wen Yu looked at him: "Are you teaching me a lesson?"
Jiang Qi: "Yes, I have overstepped my authority, but I still want to say that if the princess wants to punish someone, I will go before His Majesty to make the decision."
Hearing this, Wen Yu slowly curled the ends of her hair and chuckled, "What if I say that not only will I not punish you, but I also think you are special? Would you think I am perverted?"
Jiang Qi:?
"No one has ever spoken to me like this. Others are just flattering me. I dare not do that."
"You are the only one who is willing to point out my shortcomings. You are so special! You are totally different from those mediocre girls! Man, you have successfully caught my attention."
“…”
Jiang Qi frowned, and a hint of imperfection flashed in his eyes.
When Wen Yu saw his expression, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips, and then her attitude immediately became serious.
"Master Jiang, I'm really sorry. I have caused trouble for the Dali Temple. I really thought that the Dali Temple was responsible for handling cases."
Jiang Qi was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the eldest princess would admit her mistakes so well. He was just judging others by his own standards.
But unexpectedly, the next second, Wen Yu changed the subject.
"Actually, this matter should be blamed on my royal brother."
Jiang Qi paused after hearing this: "What do you mean, Princess?"
"Think about it, he was the first to tell me that the Dali Temple went to Anxianglou to arrest someone, and then he asked you, the Dali Temple Minister, to assist me in the investigation. Didn't I subconsciously think of the Dali Temple as a police station... No, as a government office?"
"Where else can we go to report a crime if not to the government office? It turns out that the Dali Temple is not a government office, but a serious crime unit."
Jiang Qi: ...
The eldest princess is still the unruly eldest princess.
Although what he said was a mess, Jiang Qi still managed to extract the meaning.
Jiang Qi disagreed, "How can you vent your anger on His Majesty? As the eldest princess, you should be familiar with the laws of this dynasty and the functions of various departments."
Wen Yu was surprised and asked, "But don't you all say that I'm a fool? If a fool understands all this, doesn't that mean he is unworthy of his position?"
Jiang Qi: ...
"Princess, this is not the way to use someone who is not worthy of your position."
Wen Yu waved her hand nonchalantly: "There are a thousand people who think they are unworthy of their positions. I think that's how it works."
"Also, people need to understand one thing." Wen Yu walked closer and patted Jiang Qi on the shoulder. "When it's not entirely your responsibility, you should shirk responsibility whenever you can. You should learn to share with your companions, and don't carry it all by yourself. It will only cause problems."
"At the least, it's a mental disorder, and at the worst, it's a very abnormal disorder."
Jiang Qi: ...
"So, even though my brother knew that I was an idiot, he didn't explain it to me, which led to my misunderstanding and caused trouble for you. Even though I was wrong, does he really not have any responsibility?"
"Or is it because he is the emperor, so he is not wrong? Because you dare not speak out for fear of being beheaded?"
Jiang Qi frowned, intending to argue again.
But after being accused of this, he could only kneel down and lower his eyes and said, "I have no such intention."
"I just think that as the eldest princess, you should be familiar with the law."
Wen Yu touched her chin and said, "Really? I would like to learn, but I am a well-known idiot and I can't learn it."
When Jiang Qi heard Wen Yu actually said that she wanted to learn, an expression of relief appeared on his face.
He smiled slightly: "There is no distinction between the two in teaching. There is no such thing as not being able to learn. It just depends on whether the princess is willing to learn."
"If the princess does not abandon me, I will boldly ask the emperor for permission to become her teacher."
Wen Yu was shocked when she heard this. Damn, how could this guy be so cunning?
Then she immediately said with a smile: "Come on, how could I dislike you? Everyone else said I was a fool, but you were the only one who said I could learn it. You are nothing like the others. Man, you have succeeded in getting my attention again."
Jiang Qi: ...
He slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Since the princess agrees, I will go and ask for permission from His Majesty."
"Don't worry, don't worry. Just be willing."
Wen Yu said calmly: "Why don't you take me to the Ministry of Punishment first, and treat it as the first lesson. I am a little curious."
Jiang Qi was stunned: "Ministry of Punishment? That place is not suitable for the princess..."
