Chapter 153 Chu Li's prestige in the court increases
Chu Li was about to start her performance, but found that the workers who had been busy all morning were in a hurry to get off work, and her father was running the fastest.
As enthusiastic as those people were just now, they were now as indifferent and no one paid any attention to her.
Originally, she had deliberately provoked Emperor Qingyuan today to let him see her abilities.
The more outstanding the prince's performance, the emperor may not be as happy as he appears to be.
She believed that she had been in the spotlight this morning, and if she pretended to be sick again, her father would not hesitate to ask her to leave, thus lowering the favorability of the court officials.
She understood the principle of quitting while one is ahead of the curve, and leaving is not necessarily a bad thing.
Unfortunately, what was expected is somewhat different from the current situation.
Chu Li had no choice but to give up. It seemed that he had to wait until night to find the best opportunity.
Chu Yue waited until everyone had left before she remembered to tell her father that she was leaving.
However, today, her father's eyes were full of Chu Li. She planned to find her father privately in a few days to tell him about her plan to leave the capital.
The two left with their own thoughts.
Chu Li didn't know that her opinion on pacifying the Rong people at the court this morning had a huge impact among the officials in the court.
They left in a hurry one by one, eager to find a place to talk about the prince.
Several officials from the Censorate found the Grand Censor Yu Zeyang.
They looked at each other and closed the door tightly.
"Master Yu, the Crown Prince's views on the matter of pacifying the Rong people today are truly enlightening. What do you think?"
Yu Zeyang's eyes were deep. He looked at the few people and said, "Do you feel that the crown prince has changed a lot? He seems to be a completely different person from before."
"Sir, it seems that the prince has been hiding his talents all these years. If he had such talent when he was young, perhaps..." The speaker stopped abruptly.
Perhaps God was jealous of his talent and he died inexplicably a long time ago.
Several people looked at each other, and someone said awkwardly: "The eldest prince has been loved by the people over the years, and Prime Minister Jiang has also been silently assisting him. Do we really have to stand on another side?"
One person was very emotional. "Your Highness said today: A weak country has no diplomacy. Only a strong country can stir up the situation! At that moment, tears came out of my eyes. You have also seen that the national strength of Da Chu is getting weaker year by year. In these years, His Majesty..."
As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed, "The word lust is like a knife hanging over your head. Your Majesty just doesn't understand this truth. I'm afraid that your Majesty's body will be hollowed out!"
Yu Zeyang raised his hand to stop them from talking any further.
"Be careful with your words. I also heard that the prince was on patrol in the middle of the night during the imperial examination. It is rare for the Great Chu to have such a prince. In addition, he has performed outstandingly recently. I think we should observe him carefully and wait for an opportunity to act."
Although they were not afraid of death, they were afraid of protecting the wrong future king.
The topic they are discussing now is already extremely outrageous.
Jiang Cheng is even more conservative than the others. He insists on respecting seniority and I'm afraid he won't change his mind for a while.
The people in their Censorate are now wavering between the Crown Prince and the First Prince, and Prime Minister Jiang must not be informed of this.
Yu Zeyang reminded: "You guys should be more tactful and observe quietly."
"Yes, my lord."
On the other hand, the eldest prince couldn't wait to find Prime Minister Jiang.
"Prime Minister Jiang, the Crown Prince has been in the spotlight today. What should this prince do?"
Prime Minister Jiang was so absorbed in Chu Li's performance at the morning court session that he had no time to comfort the eldest prince.
He tapped the bookshelf behind him with his hand. The eldest prince's eyes lit up, "You want me to read more books?"
Prime Minister Jiang nodded, "I once thought that Ye Hanting helped the prince, but today there were surprise attacks everywhere, and the prince was able to face them calmly and answer them fluently. I can only say that he has put a lot of effort in private. Those ideas seem to emerge continuously from his mind. He has been pretending to be stupid all these years, just waiting for today to shine!"
The eldest prince clenched his fists. He had been planning for many years and had earned a good reputation among the people. Over the years, Chu Li's reputation was that of a cowardly and useless prince.
He has always crushed Chu Li.
But in the past few months, everything Chu Li has done has been impressive.
It is definitely not a good thing for him.
The eldest prince nodded slightly towards Prime Minister Jiang, "Yes, Prime Minister Jiang, don't worry, I will go back and study hard now."
Prime Minister Jiang looked at the eldest prince's back and thought to himself, is it too late to read now?
Chu Li's ability is not just that he reads a lot. His head seems to have a mature vision that does not belong to his age. It's like he has seen everything in the world and is not afraid of anything.
He always has the ability to resolve crises. His body is like a bottomless pit. You never know what surprises or shocks are waiting for you.
This is the most terrifying thing about Chu Li.
Chu Yue returned to the princess's residence and smashed two vases to vent the humiliation she had suffered from Chu Li in the hall today.
Mo Yun saw her sitting in front of the window with a gloomy expression. He was afraid that the broken vase pieces would hurt Chu Yue, so he helped her pick up the pieces on the ground bit by bit.
By the time he had finished cleaning up the debris, his fingers were cut.
Chu Yue didn't even look at him, and said coldly: "Mo Yun, I will tell my father in a few days that I want to leave here."
"This general is really fed up with this kind of life of repeated defeats!"
She was repeatedly defeated when facing Chu Li in the court, so she decided to concentrate on learning more.
One day, she becomes the best person in the world who is unparalleled in medicine and poison, superb in martial arts, and proficient in the mystical arts.
If you want to deal with anyone, it’s just a matter of a snap of your fingers.
She thought it through clearly and realized that her greatest strength was on the battlefield and in the martial arts world, not in talking with Chu Li in the court.
"Okay, Princess, no matter what you want to do, I will always support you." Mo Yun said, looking at Chu Yue's back.
Mo Yun discovered that Chu Yue’s obsession was too deep, and she was living as tiring a life as he was.
......
Mu family.
General Mu listened to Mu Feng's excited description of Chu Li's performance in the court today.
After listening to Chu Li's views on pacifying the Rong people, his eyes brightened and his smile gradually deepened.
Chu Li, despite his young age, surprisingly shares the same views as him.
He had once advised Emperor Qingyuan, but Emperor Qingyuan did not care.
So, in a fit of anger, he never attended court meetings again.
Unexpectedly, his grandson was the person who understood him best in the world.
However, he was very curious about how he had such knowledge at such a young age.
Mu Jiangge was sitting in a chair when he heard: "Using barbarians to control barbarians is just like sending away wolves from the front door and sending tigers and leopards from the back door! It was originally just an internal strife, why add external worries?"
Her blood boiled instantly.
