Wen Xingchen corrected him, "Father, you are wrong. It was not me who suggested that Furun be made the Princess Protector of the Nation. It was me who suggested that Princess Furun be made the Crown Princess."

Wen Changsheng was shocked and subconsciously about to get angry, but he saw a nonchalant smile on Wen Xingchen's lips.

"It seems the eldest son of the Chen family proposed the title of Protector of the Nation Princess. Protector of the Nation Princess? The princess's talent and learning far surpass those of the other princes. The Crown Princess is the most suitable for the princess. But there's no rush now. Protector of the Nation Princess is very close to the goal, father, don't you agree?"

Wen Changsheng said, "Since ancient times, there has never been a woman in power, nor has there ever been a woman serving as the Crown Princess. You are simply ridiculous."

"Really? Father thought his daughter was ridiculous, but the court still named Furun the Princess Protector of the Nation. My daughter was just joking, but someone took it seriously. However, since all the officials in the court think it is feasible, then what my daughter said is not ridiculous."

Wen Changsheng: ...

What a joke, what a joke.

This statement is too arrogant.

She said it without intending it, but someone carried it out.

Those in power never take action themselves, they just need to open their mouths.

Wen Xingchen...is she a superior?

After realizing this, Wen Changsheng felt that his behavior was very funny.

Making Wen Ruyue marry Prince Jin is even funnier.

"Xingchen, you don't understand the politics of the court. Princess Furun may be capable, but she can only be a Protector of the Nation Princess. The person who will take the throne in the future can only be a prince."

Wen Xingchen echoed:

"What my father said is absolutely true."

"Then which prince does Xingchen think is the most likely?"

Wen Xingchen smiled.

"Anyone can do it except Prince Jin."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't like him, so naturally I don't want him to ascend to the throne, that's what I mean. But I don't want him to ascend to the throne, and whether he can ascend to the throne in the end is not up to his daughter to decide. Don't you agree, father?"

"Yes, the emperor naturally has the final say on all matters of the court." But there were also powerful officials who fanned the flames.

But Wen Changsheng came to his senses and said, "Your sister has been promised to Prince Jin as a concubine. If Prince Jin can ascend to the throne in the future, your sister will be..."

"She is still a concubine. Father, please stop dreaming. When the Prince of Jin ascends the throne, the Empress can only be the daughter of the Xi family, not your daughter."

"......"

"Don't you have it? If you can support your sister, then the position of queen will definitely belong to your sister."

Wen Xingchen smiled.

So that was his idea.

"Father is such a joke. Who am I? A girl from the boudoir, illiterate. How could I possibly stir up trouble in the government?"

He said these words to Wen Xingchen three days ago.

"How can you be illiterate? Your last debate caused a sensation in the capital, you..."

"Father, do you believe what you say? Did you ever ask anyone to teach me how to read? Did you ever ask a master to teach me how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy, or painting? How could I possibly know that? It was my second sister who knew all that."

"..."

The conversation ended without any result.

Wen Xingchen made Wen Chang so angry that he was half dead, and was then driven away.

"elder sister."

But he hadn't walked far when Wen Ruyue called him.

Wen Ruyue seemed to have come out of Wen Changsheng's study.

?

Wen Ruyue would rather never see her in this life, but she can't.

If she wants to become the queen, she must have her help.

Even if she was so scared that her whole body was frozen, she had to face her.

Wen Ruyue tried her best to control her breathing and was very careful.

Wen Xingchen saw that she was cautious, afraid of provoking something scary, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is she afraid of herself?

This is rare.

"Second sister..."

Wen Ruyue said subconsciously: "Yes, what are your instructions, Queen Sister?"

Queen sister? Is Wen Ruyue back?

"Wen Ruyue, you called the wrong person."

Wen Ruyue was a little panicked and blurted out subconsciously.

She looked at Wen Xingchen in panic. Usually when she called her full name, it meant she had made a mistake.

My knees bent involuntarily.

Wen Xingchen looked at her spineless appearance, and the mockery in his eyes deepened.

Even so, you still want to be the queen?

I'm afraid that I will have the life to serve but not the life to enjoy it.

In the previous life, if I hadn’t always protected you, if you hadn’t been Zhao’er’s biological mother, if he hadn’t begged me, would I have paid attention to you?

Forget it, why settle the past scores with her?

Yun Duo saw the girl squatting down, and she didn't know that Wen Ruyue was afraid. She thought the girl was sick.

"Miss, do you have a stomachache? Do you want to call a doctor?"

Wen Ruyue stood up with the help of Yun Duo's hand.

Wen Xingchen said casually: "Second sister is not feeling well, so go back and have a good rest."

He was about to leave after saying this

Wen Ruyue had something to say, and she couldn't let her go.

"Sister, you're back too, right?"

Wen Xingchen turned around and looked at Wen Ruyue, his eyes firm and cold.

"What do you mean, sister?"

"Sister, why are you playing dumb? In the past, you loved His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin and eventually married him and became the Queen. Now you suddenly don't like him anymore and want to marry the Regent. You two were together in your past life, and now you're rekindling your relationship..."

After hearing this, Wen Xingchen was certain that she was back, but so what?

She pretended to be confused and said to Yun Duo:

"Has your mistress been like this recently? She's talking nonsense. If she's sick, get treatment as soon as possible. After all, the palace won't allow a lunatic to become the Prince of Jin's concubine."

Yun Duo also felt that her master was sick. This was not the first time she had talked nonsense.

"Girl, let's go back. It's cold today. Don't catch a cold."

"I'm not sick."

Wen Ruyue bit her lips lightly, looking pitiful.

However, if a man saw her like this, he would definitely feel pity for her.

Too bad she's not a man.

Yingying also looked down on her like this. If someone saw her like this, they would think that their princess was bullying her, and the princess suffered a lot because of this.

Then she said, "Princess, you haven't finished reading this letter yet. Let's go back."

"Really? We're just seeing the exciting part. Let's go back."

Wen Ruyue saw her leaving and tried to follow her, but finally stopped.

How could she possibly help herself? She hated Xiao Sheng, and she hated herself even more.

Yun Duo saw that her daughter was motionless, with a distorted face and a terrifying look.

Yun Duo was too scared to remind her.

After a long while, Wen Ruyue's voice finally said, "Go back."

Yun Duo quickly helped her master back.

every other day

Wen Xingchen got up and had breakfast before going out.

There was a carriage parked at the door, and Wen Xingchen saw Yun Duo standing outside the carriage.

But that carriage was his own.

At this time, Wen Ruyue in the carriage lifted the curtain and said, "Sister, since we are both going to the palace, let's go together."

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

"Although we are both going to the palace, we are not on the same route."

"elder sister?"

"But if you like this carriage, I can give it to you."

"..."

Wen Xingchen ordered the steward to find another carriage.

Wen Ruyue got out of the car, feeling very aggrieved.

Wen Xingchen frowned and said, "Your behavior is fine at home, but if you enter the palace, you'd better put away your behavior to avoid offending the nobles in the palace."
