Transmigrating to the Qing Dynasty: The Beloved Princess Uses a System to Change the Plot

The prince frowned, looking at Mu Yue with disapproval. "Yue'er, this little fat boy is so heavy. What if he hurts your leg sitting on your lap?"

Although Yinqi was young and could not understand the Crown Prince's words, he could tell that the Crown Prince disliked him.

He pouted, looking aggrieved, and snuggled his chubby body closer to Mu Yue's arms, "Sister Yueyue~"

Looking at the aggrieved Yinqi, Muyue gently pinched his cheek, "Our Yinqi isn't heavy at all!"

After she finished speaking, she patted Yinqi's head.

The gentle yet firm movements reassured Yinqi.

The hurt on his face vanished instantly, and he smiled at Mu Yue again.

Mu Yue glanced at the time and hurriedly called out to the nanny who was taking care of Yinqi, "Nanny, please take the Fifth Prince to Grandmother Empress!"

The nanny hurried forward and took the Fifth Prince from Mu Yue's arms.

After the old woman carried Yinqi away, Muyue looked at the Crown Prince and said, "Grandmother is tired. Aunt Suma, please accompany Grandmother to rest."

"Brother Baocheng, shall we pay our respects to the Ancestor?"

The Crown Prince checked the time and immediately said, "Fang Lue, you stay here and apologize to the Ancestor on my behalf. I will come to pay my respects to the Ancestor after the lessons at the Imperial Study are over."

After these matters were arranged, the Crown Prince led Mu Yue toward the Imperial Study.

Worried that the female-dominated society might not be suitable, the Crown Prince carefully explained all the precautions he knew.

As Mu Yue listened to the Crown Prince's incessant chatter of concern, she couldn't help but feel a little more expectant.

Before long, they arrived at the Imperial Study.

Through the open door, one could see that there were only a few eunuchs cleaning the Imperial Study.

It seems the others haven't arrived yet.

Mu Yue looked thoughtful.

The Crown Prince pulled Mu Yue into the study and gestured for her to sit down next to him.

Following the Crown Prince's gesture, Mu Yue looked at the table in front of her.

Perhaps considering that the princes who entered the study were all quite young, the tables and chairs were not very high.

There were some ink stains on the table.

It looks like someone is practicing calligraphy here, with ink stains left on the table through the paper.

Mu Yue didn't want to take someone else's place.

Those who came to the study were either princes and princesses from the palace or the children of ministers.

It's really unnecessary to get into a conflict with others over such a trivial matter.

Mu Yue's gaze swept around the room, finally settling on the back rows of seats.

"Brother Baocheng, Yue'er can sit here!"

As she spoke, Mu Yue gestured for Chun Ju to place the prepared writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table she had just pointed to.

The crown prince did not want his sister to sit so far away from him.

He noticed there was an empty seat next to Mu Yue, and immediately called out to the eunuch serving him, "Zhang Pu, move the things to the table next to Yue'er!"

Upon hearing the Crown Prince's instructions, Zhang Pu immediately showed a troubled expression.

He bent down slightly and whispered in the Crown Prince's ear, "Your Highness, your position was arranged by the Emperor so that you can hear the tutor's teachings better. If you change it arbitrarily, it may displease the Emperor!"

The crown prince's face instantly turned cold, and he slammed his hand on the table.

A muffled thud rang out.

Mu Yue quickly looked over, tugged at the Crown Prince's hand, and gestured for him to calm down.

The Crown Prince gently patted Mu Yue's hand, calming him down, then looked at Zhang Pu and reprimanded him, "Are you my servant or Father Emperor's servant?"

"I only asked you to do such a small thing, and you're already making excuses. How can I entrust you with other important matters in the future?"

Upon hearing the Crown Prince's somewhat angry words, Zhang Pu's face paled, and he looked somewhat flustered.

However, the Crown Prince arbitrarily changed his position, which angered the Emperor.

He's probably in mortal danger, let alone any future wealth and glory.

Zhang Pu dared not gamble.

He was pale-faced, racking his brains for reasons to persuade the crown prince.

However, the Crown Prince is clearly very dissatisfied with him bringing up the Emperor. If this reason is used to obstruct the Crown Prince, it will only make the Crown Prince more dissatisfied.

What should I do?

Zhang Pu's nervous gaze darted around, then suddenly settled on the spot next to the Crown Prince's original table and chairs.

There were two tables and chairs in the first row of the Imperial Study, one for the Crown Prince and the other for the First Prince.

The eldest prince and the crown prince would often quarrel and fight over trivial matters.

Since the emperor's orders are useless, we can only try other methods.

Zhang Pu took a deep breath, forced another ingratiating smile, bent down slightly, and whispered in the Crown Prince's ear, "Your Highness, the front seats have always been reserved for you and the First Prince!"

"If the First Prince comes to the Imperial Study and sees that you have changed your seat, he will definitely think that you are afraid of him and that is why you are sitting in the back!"

Zhang Pu stopped there.

He knew the Crown Prince's character well.

Having said all that, if the Crown Prince still refuses to change his mind, then he has no other choice but to wait for the Emperor's decision.

He watched the crown prince nervously, observing him intently.

The Crown Prince frowned slightly, the image of the First Prince's smug expression flashing through his mind.

The older brother, taking advantage of his age, always liked to boss him around.

But I am the Crown Prince, the heir apparent, so how can I measure our relationship as that of ordinary brothers?

He was naturally unwilling to follow the wishes of the eldest prince, and conflicts frequently arose between the two.

On the surface, they appear to be brothers, but the servants who attend to them can sense the undercurrents between them.

They always secretly compete with each other when doing things.

Both sides have their wins and losses.

The Crown Prince was far superior to the First Prince in terms of knowledge, but he was inferior to the First Prince in terms of martial prowess.

Every time he went to the martial arts training ground, he would see his elder brother's smug expression, and he would even try to teach him how to draw a bow and nock an arrow, showing no regard for his status as the crown prince.

The more the prince thought about it, the angrier he became.

He looked at Zhang Pu with a cold face and rebuked him in an unpleasant tone, "Zhang Pu, what nonsense are you spouting? Why would I be afraid of my elder brother?"

"He only has brute strength, but he doesn't know how to use his brain. He's always being provoked by those around him to cause trouble for me. I'm not that kind of brainless person!"

Hearing the Crown Prince mention the First Prince, Mu Yue frowned, her expression showing some worry.

Brother Baocheng and Brother Baoqing haven't been in the Imperial Study for very long, yet it seems that the conflict between them is much stronger than before.

Could it be that the servants around the two elder brothers were stirring up trouble?

As Mu Yue thought about the final fate of her two elder brothers, she became increasingly worried, and tears welled up in her eyes.

We need to find out exactly what happened between the two older brothers!

She had been so heartbroken these past few days because the Empress had abandoned her that she had forgotten to care about her two brothers.

If, due to her momentary negligence, her two elder brothers were to meet such an end, she would surely feel guilty for the rest of her life.

Thinking of this, Mu Yue quickly tugged at the Crown Prince's sleeve, "Brother Bao Cheng, you..."

Before she could speak, the eldest prince led his servants into the study.
