After reading the whole family's minds, the eldest daughter awakened

Chapter 33 The fifth prince is secretly reading

Li Dengyuan asked Li Yaozu and Li Mingzhu to wait at the door for half an hour. Finally, Li Yaozu went back to his room on the pretext of warming up his books.

Naturally, Li Mingzhu didn't want to wait in the cold wind, so she simply said she wasn't feeling well and took her maid back.

Li Youwei was afraid that something like this would happen, so she came back late on purpose.

Li Dengyuan must have wanted to know from her the situation in the prince's and prime minister's houses.

Not only did she come back late today, she would never come back early in the future, so that they would not delay her time to learn martial arts.

The eldest princess expressed dissatisfaction while picking up food for Li Youwei.

"They can have such a good daughter like you. What else can they be dissatisfied with? Why do they have to target you everywhere?"

Li Youwei didn't understand it before, but later she understood.

Because she is sensible, capable and the eldest sister. Li Yaozu is a boy who can carry on the family line for them, while Li Mingzhu is the youngest daughter who can act coquettishly and act like a fool. Her parents are biased, and unfortunately she has become the least popular one.

"Mom, you are enough for me, other daughters don't ask for more."

The eldest princess touched the top of her hair.

"Don't worry, my mother will do her best to protect you."

"Thank you, mother. I will also let you regain your freedom as soon as possible."

Li Youwei already knew that the eldest princess did not marry Li Dengyuan voluntarily, but was a random person pointed out to her by the imperial concubine.

As the emperor's favorite concubine, she had so many privileges.

Even if she is the emperor's sister, she can insult her at will.

"Okay, mother, wait."

Li Youwei took Bitao to finish the meal and then went to the study.

The next day, Li Youwei left the Li family before dawn, and Li Dengyuan missed the opportunity again.

He was so angry that he lost his temper at Mrs. Li, but there was nothing he could do.

Time passed very quickly, and finally the day of the exam came. All the students were very excited, hoping to do the best in the subjects they taught.

At the end of the three-day exam, the prince who once tied for first place with Li Youwei was ranked last this time and failed several subjects.

This shocked everyone, and Zhou Tengfei had to read the list several times before he could believe his eyes.

He was indeed second to last, but the prince actually occupied his first to last position.

In addition to this thing that shocked him, there was another person whose results made him unbelievable.

"Chen Tuo, I seem to be dazzled. Do you think that name is you?"

Zhou Tengfei pointed to the fifth position from the bottom on the list.

The fifth prince felt a little guilty. During the days when Zhou Tengfei was on leave, he kept secretly reading.

Although he only moved up a few places, it was a great encouragement to him.

"Boss, I was so lucky this time. I performed exceptionally well."

"Really, are you studying behind my back?"

"No, look, my brother, the prince, also fell to the bottom. So, the exam is linked to luck."

With the example of the prince, Zhou Tengfei's doubts were dispelled.

"You're right. Why can't my luck be better? If I could get your grades, my parents would be extremely happy."

After Li Youwei and Nalan Ling read their results, they returned to the school together.

Wang Boyan and the prince came over.

The prince changed from his previous gentleness, and his clothes became bold, which could even be described as Meng Lang.

The neckline is opened a little low, and the white collarbone can even be seen.

"Miss Nalan, Miss Li, would I be honored to invite you to have a drink at Qingfeng Tower?"

The prince's voice was frivolous, making people frown.

Li Youwei and Nalan Ling looked at each other, they knew why the prince became like this. I heard that the prince went to beg the imperial concubine that night, and the imperial concubine also begged the emperor for mercy.

In the end, although the queen's life was saved, she was relegated to the cold palace, and the prime minister's rights were also weakened.

Although Huangfu Chenyang is still the prince, he is no longer what he used to be.

Wang Boyan followed the prince and smiled helplessly.

"Your Highness, You Wei and Ling'er probably don't have time, so we should go on our own."

"Well, that's a pity. Miss Yan'er from Qingfeng Tower is really good at playing the piano, and she's also beautiful."

If it were the former prince, he would never say such a thing.

What kind of pain can a person go through to make such a big change in such a short period of time?

"Your Highness, there is hope as long as you are alive."

This is what Li Youwei said to the prince and herself.

The prince's body stiffened for a moment, but he soon resumed his leisurely activities.

He leaned crookedly on Wang Boyan, "Then let's go."

After the two left, Nalan Ling spoke heartbrokenly.

"You Wei, His Royal Highness is really suffering."

"It's okay, everything will be fine. What we have to do now is to make ourselves stronger as soon as possible."

"Well, I see."

Li Youwei's results this time were neither top nor behind, but arithmetic was the only one with a perfect score.

This made Master Zhang, who was in charge of teaching arithmetic, very satisfied, and he became very arrogant among the other masters for a while.

Li Dengyuan was not very satisfied with this result, and Li Yaozu even took the opportunity to mention his admission to Hongru College.

But now that Li Youwei has established a firm foothold in Hongru Academy, it is impossible to replace him with Li Yaozu.

After this exam, the college will have a holiday.

Although she no longer has to go to the academy, Li Youwei works even harder. Apart from eating and sleeping, she spends all her time reading military books and practicing swordsmanship.

In the ice and snow, there is a small man, holding a big knife in his hand, and only the afterimage can be seen as he dances.

Li Youwei felt that this was not enough. She had to practice until she could no longer see the afterimage.

As time went by, the prince's reputation as a bastard became more and more popular, even surpassing that of Zhou Tengfei.

The ministers who had previously supported the prince all shook their heads and sighed. A generation of talented people had been reduced to waste. It seemed that it was time for them to join the Ming Lord.

Three days before New Year's Eve, an urgent report came from the front that Dongzhou Kingdom had invaded with troops.

There are four big countries on this continent, namely Nanchen Kingdom, Beiliang Kingdom, Dongzhou Kingdom and Xisha Kingdom.

The Nanchen Kingdom is in the south and is the most fertile, but it values ​​culture over military affairs and has a very weak military force. This makes the other three countries care about it and come to gain some benefits from time to time.

Among the four kingdoms, the Beiliang Kingdom has the strongest military strength, so most of the Nanchen Kingdom's troops are used to guard the northern border.

There are not many soldiers in Nanchen Kingdom that can be mobilized.

When Emperor Nanchen got the news, he was drunkenly dreaming with his arms around the imperial concubine. In the end, he was woken up by the imperial concubine.

"Your Majesty, Dongzhou chose this time to attack just to make you miserable. You must show them how powerful they are."

"My beloved concubine is right. It would be better to let the crown prince fight for me personally, which will definitely boost our morale."

“Your Majesty, the prince is the crown prince of a country after all, and it’s New Year’s Eve soon, so it doesn’t seem appropriate for him to go.

Moreover, the queen had just made a mistake, and the prince was still implicated to some extent. He might not be able to convince the public. "

Emperor Nanchen nodded, "My concubine's analysis is correct, then who is more suitable to lead the team?"

"Your Majesty, my concubine's father has received a salary from the imperial court, and it is time for him to serve."
