"It's alright, I won't stoop to the level of a drunkard." Prince Jing smiled and patted her head. "Your mother is calling you, aren't you going back?"

"Shh! I'm a little peach tree now, I can't talk. I need to take shelter from the rain, it's going to rain heavily." Ye Yaoyao made a shushing gesture and said in a serious tone.

The Imperial Astronomical Observatory's Grand Historian tilted his head slightly, glanced at the still exceptionally bright starry sky, and slowly spoke:

"The night is exceptionally fine tonight. I have observed the stars and the wind, and there is no sign of rain."

With a bright moon and few stars, the sky is clear and there will be no rain.

"Boom!" The historian had barely finished speaking when a deafening thunderclap shook the sky, startling everyone.

Everyone instinctively looked towards the Imperial Observatory, wondering why they hadn't been told there were no signs of rain. The official looked utterly embarrassed.

The weather changed drastically at that moment, confirming Ye Yaoyao's words. Most people believed that Ye Yaoyao could really see 'immortals'.

"Capture those three men for me."

As soon as the emperor's decree was issued, the rain poured down. Everyone ran to the eaves, and the banquet ended with the rain.

Ye Yaoyao really could see immortals, and the Emperor, seeing the scene before him, believed it.

"You all need not attend court tomorrow."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Summer rains come and go quickly; in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the heavy rain stopped, and the ministers left the palace.

next day

In Chunnuan Pavilion, Liu Yunshu and the triplets stared intently at Ye Yaoyao.

"What are you doing? You think I'll get full if I don't eat?" Ye Yaoyao felt uneasy under their gazes.

"Little sister, you were drunk last night, do you know what you did?"

Ye Jingyang put hangover medicine in the tea she drank, and they suspected that she was faking being drunk.

"What happened? I thought the tea I drank was fruit tea. I have a very good temper when I drink alcohol; I just go to sleep when I'm drunk."

Ye Yaoyao lied with her eyes wide open.

“You were drunk last night and couldn’t sleep. You even said you saw a god.”

"Oh! Really? Then nothing happened, right?"

I have no idea what happened before. After I sobered up, I heard the system telling me to talk about gods.

Sigh! The news that the Second Prince is impotent must have terrified Mother and the others.

[Host, you've fooled me.]

[Haha, this proves I have the potential to be a Best Actress.]

Why did you expose the Second Prince's secret?

Those officials with minor backgrounds can't touch Ye Yaoyao. The person who drugged the Second Prince might be the Empress or other concubines. The system thinks the host is taking too much risk.

Someone sent a message to Uncle Ji, telling me about the situation in the court. Although the emperor favors the second prince, he still prefers the crown prince.

The Emperor is currently in his prime, and the Second Prince is a good match to check the Crown Prince. He should have guessed the Emperor's intentions and didn't want to be used by the Emperor, so he agreed.

"Then you've helped him."

Ye Li'an continued, "..."

“If there’s something wrong, you can’t sit here. You said the Second Prince is impotent, he might come to you privately.”

"Oh! Really? A deity told me these things!"

Ye Yaoyao feigned surprise, and the others almost burst out laughing.

Even if the Second Prince doesn't come to see me, I will still go to see him.

[Host, what do you want with him?]

Of course, it's about cooperation.

[Wouldn't it be better to find the Crown Prince? He's the future emperor.]

Right now, all the good people I see end up in tragic situations, and cannon fodder naturally needs cannon fodder to fill the void.

Ye Li'an: If word gets out that the Second Prince is impotent, he will be out of the running for the throne. The court officials will not side with him, which will give him a good opportunity to recuperate.

[The Second Prince is just a medicinal herb, not a eunuch. He'll rise again.] Ye Yaoyao considered forming an alliance and engaging in underground cooperation.

[Host, why don't you cooperate with Ninth Prince?]

[Find him! Ninth Prince is the real backer; I should thank him properly.]

She remembered that Prince Jing had spoken well of her, and she always felt that the letter was sent by Prince Jing.

"Little sister, did you know it would rain last night?"

"I don't know, but I guess so. I saw ants moving house a few times after I entered the palace!"

Animals are better able to sense changes in the weather than humans.

[Host, you were absolutely right last night.]

Haha! I just said it offhand. Anyway, I'm drunk and acting crazy.

But Heaven is incredibly kind; once those matters are confirmed, the Emperor's reward will be granted.

Aren't you afraid someone will cause you trouble?

I now possess some of the skills of a charlatan; there are only a handful of people who dare to kill me, and they'll do it sooner or later if they're going to.

Ye Li'an's eyes were dark; both of her younger sisters would be alright.

"It has been determined that the drug that Xiyao was given was ordered by Consort Yu. The Chu family is now at its last gasp. They will pay the price for targeting Xiyao."

My maternal uncle will handle this matter, and the Empress will investigate.

"Luckily, my little sister found me yesterday." Ye Xiyao felt a wave of fear as she recalled what happened last night.

"Sister, it's best not to associate with Tang Xue anymore," Ye Yaoyao advised.

"Ok, I know."

At the time, she didn't know Tang Xue was looking for her. She didn't mean to harm her. Judging from Madam Tang's attitude, she clearly hated her. It would be best not to have any contact with her in the future.

"Master, the madam and young master are having breakfast. Have you had breakfast yet? This servant will go and get you a set of bowls and chopsticks."

Zhang Mama's greetings came from outside.

Oh! My scumbag dad's here.

"Father."

The triplets stood up to greet him, and when they looked up, they saw that Ye Mian's eyes were dark and swollen, indicating that he hadn't slept well last night.

"Father, you didn't sleep well last night!"

Ye Yaoyao ignored the resentful look on Ye Mian's face and offered a seemingly caring greeting.

"You wretched child, do you even know what nonsense you spouted at the palace banquet?"

Ye Mian couldn't sleep all night; the Emperor's suspicious gaze made him uneasy.

She's accusing others of their crimes while also dragging him into it; this daughter is really here to ruin him.

Thinking about this made me even more agitated.

"I don't know! I just heard about what happened after I got drunk. My mother said I was chosen by a deity to convey the will of Heaven to the Emperor!"

"So, do you remember what we talked about last night?"

Ye Mian stared intently at her, trying to discern something from her face, but Ye Yaoyao looked completely oblivious and shook her head.

Liu Yunshu spoke up to defend her daughter:

“Husband, what does a little girl like her know? I think she was drunk, and perhaps a deity really spoke to her like that.”

“Father, we think so too,” the triplets echoed.

Ye Mian knew that Ye Yaoyao had been studying medicine with a doctor since she was a child and rarely attended official banquets, so how could she know about official matters? This matter was indeed strange.

"Did the deity say anything about my father?"

Ye Mian hadn't forgotten that "scumbag father."

"I don't know! I can't remember anything that happened last night."

Ye Mian stared for a long time, knowing he wouldn't get any answers.

"Keep a close eye on her, and never let her touch a drop of alcohol again."

He also had to apologize to Lord Lu, leaving behind these words before flicking his sleeves and departing.

[He's going to see Lord Lu, isn't he? Haha! Won't these two fall out over this?]

Madam Lu is a jealous woman with a good family background; otherwise, Lord Lu wouldn't have kept her as a mistress outside the marriage.
