After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 91 Time to Eat

The emperor looked at the Grand Tutor and suddenly laughed.

"I had no idea that the imperial examination I proposed could be manipulated behind the scenes by you gentlemen, allowing you to replace the talented scholars who passed the exam! You are truly my good ministers!"

Seeing the emperor's expression, everyone knelt down, frantically wiping away sweat in fear.

Especially the Grand Tutor, he knew better than anyone how his son got his official position, and he had to keep his head down in shame.

There was also Taibao, whose son's position as county magistrate was also filled by someone else.

Both of them were scared!

Others who did the same thing trembled with fear.

Minister Fang didn't feel much psychological pressure. Apart from his unfilial daughter, his family hadn't really done anything else.

Just as Minister Fang was thinking this, the emperor suddenly called on him.

"Fang Aiqing, stand up and tell us your opinion on this matter."

Minister Fang: No, why did you call on me and make me stand up? Do you want to make our Fang family a gang?

Minister Fang had no choice but to rise shakily, bow, and say, “Your Majesty, if others find out about this, the impact will be very bad. But if we have to investigate, half of the officials in the court will be affected. Why not examine their abilities? If their abilities are commensurate with their positions, then keep them; otherwise, dismiss them.”

As for the officials involved in these matters, I trust Your Majesty will make the decision.

The emperor nodded upon hearing Minister Fang's words, and then told everyone to stand up.

All those involved in these matters will receive a year's salary, and those whose actions are egregious will be demoted one rank.

Then they started discussing Long Chenfeng's matter.

In the end, everyone decided to lock Long Chenfeng up first and wait for Fang Lingchu to handle the situation.

As for Lin Wanrou in the Fang residence, the emperor intends to give that girl a chance. If she really has the ability, what's wrong with giving her an official position?

Let alone women wanting to be officials now, even if a beast had the ability to attend court, Emperor Chongde wouldn't object.

Lin Wanrou: You're the beast, your whole family are beasts.

The ministers on the emperor's side were discussing the matter heatedly, their faces flushed.

方府
Fang Lingchu was groggily woken up by her sister.

"Xiao Chu, wake up, it's time to eat dinner."

Blueberry had already called three times before Fang Lingyan arrived.

Every time Fang Lingchu was called, she would say she would be right away, but then she would fall asleep again.

They showed absolutely no intention of getting up.

It's been a whole day, and everyone else has woken up, but Fang Lingchu has slept all day and has absolutely no desire to get up.

If she weren't still breathing, Mrs. Fang would have thought her daughter had passed away in her sleep.

When Fang Lingyan called for help for the third time, Fang Lingchu finally stood up.

He rubbed his eyes, scratched his messy hair, and asked, "Sis, what did you call me for? Do you know how tired I am?"

Fang Lingyan felt very sorry for her sister when she heard what she said, but how could she endure not eating for a day?

So she said gently, "Xiao Chu, get up and eat. You've slept all day. Get up, eat, and then go back to sleep, okay?"

At this moment, the system also spoke up: "Host, your sister is right, you've slept for over ten hours. Get up and eat! Aren't you hungry?"

Before the system finished speaking, Fang Lingchu's stomach started growling.

Fang Lingchu touched her stomach sheepishly and looked pitifully at her older sister, saying, "Sister, I'm hungry."

Fang Lingyan chuckled softly and said, "Get up quickly, the kitchen made all your favorite dishes today." Hearing her sister's words, Fang Lingchu rolled over and got out of bed immediately.

Ignoring the laughter of the older sister next to him, his lack of enthusiasm for eating suggests a problem with his thinking.

Besides, she hasn't eaten anything since she got back, and now she's so hungry she could eat a whole cow.

After quickly washing up, Fang Lingchu followed them to the living room where they ate.

Seeing her two older brothers there, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brothers, why are you back?"

Fang Lingxing and Fang Lingming were relieved to see their lively and energetic younger sister.

They overheard their sister being assassinated at the Imperial College, which terrified them so much that they returned home before finishing their classes.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they heard their younger sister was still sleeping, but they were still worried because they didn't see her. They insisted on waiting until they saw that Fang Lingchu was not injured before going back.

Mrs. Fang had no choice but to let the two children stay. Anyway, the two children were doing well in school, and they had both lost weight from studying. She decided to take this opportunity to help them recover.

Seeing that his sister was alright, Fang Lingming jokingly said, "I heard you were robbed. Come back and see which blind fool dared to rob my sister."

Fang Lingchu rolled her eyes at her second brother and said, "What robbery? It's clearly an assassination attempt! I'm so popular that everyone loves me, flowers adore me, and cars get flat tires just by looking at me, yet someone still wants to kill me! Sigh!"

Listening to Fang Lingchu's words, the system couldn't help but retort: ​​[Host, why do I get the feeling you're being narcissistic!]

Fang Lingchu retorted, "Am I not pretty? Don't you like me?"

Hearing Fang Lingchu's words, the system thought for a moment and said: [It seems that it really is true. The Crown Prince likes someone, Gu Wangyan seems to be interested in you too, plus Duan Ganze, the young master of the Hundred Fiends Pavilion, and the female lead Lin Wanrou. Host, are you sure everyone loves you?]

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang's two older brothers lost their appetite.

One prince was already unbearable for the two of them, who were both doting on their sister, and now two more have appeared, both of whom are people they can't afford to offend. They're really speechless.

Fang Lingyan heard something different from what her two older brothers heard.

What does it mean when Guagua says Lin Wanrou likes Fang Lingchu?

Lin Wanrou became extremely nervous when she heard Guagua mention her name.

He secretly observed everyone and only felt relieved when he found that no one seemed to care.

He had just turned his head when he met the probing gaze of the eldest daughter of the Fang family.

Startled, she quickly lowered her head and started eating.

The issues between Fang Lingchu and the system continued.

[Could we please not mention them during meals? It gives me a headache.]

The system chuckled and said, "Alright, but host, what are your plans for Lin Wanrou?"

While eating, Fang Lingchu said, "It depends on the emperor! If he agrees to let Lin Wanrou participate in the imperial examination, then let her go. If not, we'll see. At worst, I'll send her to my fiefdom."

As she was eating, Fang Lingchu realized that her father was not there, and was just about to ask him.

Then we saw Minister Fang walk in.

Fang Lingchu held a chicken leg in one hand and a spoon in the other, and looked up at her father.

Then she continued eating, thinking to the system: "See? This is what happens to corporate slaves. Getting off work so late, tsk tsk tsk."

Minister Fang had just stepped into the living room when he heard his daughter's words and almost fell over.

Minister Fang glared at his youngest daughter and said, "Madam, I'm back."

Mrs. Fang smiled and got up to greet her husband.
