Chapter 346 Lessons
Qianqiu Tower was bustling with people and every seat was occupied.
As soon as Ji Qingqing's carriage stopped, Eunuch Lu, who was serving the prince, came over and took her in.
The two walked side by side, but Ji Qingqing was panting with every step, walking very slowly, like a willow swaying in the wind.
Just when Ji Qingqing was feeling nervous, Eunuch Lu suddenly turned around and spoke to her in a low voice.
"Miss Ji Er, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked me to bring you a message. He said you don't need to worry too much, he is here for you."
Ji Qingqing's heart skipped a beat. Luo Jingshen asked Eunuch Lu to deliver a message, intending to comfort her.
But Ji Qingqing didn't feel happy at all, instead she became even more nervous!
She pursed her lips slightly and asked with a pale face: "Eunuch Lu, did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really say that?"
Eunuch Lu smiled and said, "Yes, I have been with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for ten years, and I have never seen him care so much about any young lady."
"Miss Ji, you are the first one. If Miss Ji becomes the Crown Princess in the future, please help me to speak well of her in front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"That's for sure." Ji Qingqing replied absentmindedly.
Putting aside the question of whether she could become the Crown Princess, she heard another meaning in Eunuch Lu's words.
Based on Ji Qingqing's understanding of Luo Jingshen, the fact that he told her not to worry already showed that he believed Murong Yue's words and knew that it was she who arranged the frame-up of Ji Yuntang.
But Luo Jingshen said that he was there for everything, and Ji Qingqing understood that he would do his best to protect her and told her not to be afraid.
But can Luo Jingshen really not care about the truth of the matter?
Ji Qingqing just felt extremely confused.
On the one hand, she was afraid that she would really be implicated.
On the other hand, she was afraid that her beautiful image in Luo Jingshen's heart would collapse completely.
Once a person has a stain, no matter how good the impression is in the other person's mind, it will no longer exist.
Just then, Eunuch Lu's voice rang out.
"Miss Ji Er, please come in!"
Ji Qingqing nodded slightly, then slowly walked into the competition arena.
As soon as she stood still, she felt countless strange eyes falling on her.
There were mocking, disgusting, probing, and even hateful comments...all of them made her feel uneasy.
Ji Qingqing even heard someone curse in her ear, "A pretty face, but a vicious heart. You can only know a person's face but not his heart."
Ji Qingqing almost bit her teeth off. She suppressed her emotions, stepped forward and weakly saluted Luo Jingshen and the others.
"Your servant pays respect to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chen, Master Mei, and Principal Cheng."
"I have been feeling unwell recently and have caught a cold, so I am a little late. Please forgive me."
She greeted everyone except Ji Yuntang.
Under normal circumstances, Ji Yuntang would definitely not care.
But now, she doesn't want to let it go so easily!
"Miss Ji bowed to everyone but not to me, the Princess. Doesn't this mean you don't take me, the Princess Ye, seriously?"
Ji Qingqing's eyes turned red, and she said softly, "Sister, you misunderstood me. I heard that you are also a candidate for the Canglang Poetry Competition today, so I didn't salute you for fear of breaking the rules."
What she meant was that Ji Yuntang's identity today was a candidate, not Princess Ye, and she had no right to ask her to salute.
Ji Yuntang's lips curled up into a smile, she suddenly took two steps forward and grabbed Ji Qingqing's hair.
"I didn't know that Miss Ji also knows the rules?"
"For one thing, they signed me up for the Canglang Poetry Contest without my consent."
"Induce Murong Yue to frame me for cheating and find someone to replace my answer sheet. This is the second."
"You have never performed formalities or kneeled before seeing me, this is the third reason."
"With all of the above, do you dare to say that you know the rules?"
Ji Qingqing's scalp felt a dull pain from being pulled, and the knuckles of her five fingers folded at her sides turned white from exerting so much force.
She was so angry, but she didn't dare to get angry. She could only say aggrievedly: "Sister, I don't know what you are talking about?"
"Registering for you, replacing the answer sheet, accusing you of cheating, I never did such a thing."
"Even if you don't like me, you can't put the blame on me, right?"
Although she looked crying, Ji Qingqing was actually very panicked.
She didn't understand, she was so secretive in her actions, how did Ji Yuntang know that it was her who signed up?
Qingyun Hall is very tight-lipped and will never reveal the identity of the applicants.
Even if we investigate this matter, we will never be able to find out the truth.
It can be seen that Ji Yuntang could not have any evidence in his hands.
Then, there is a high probability that she is deceiving herself now.
If I admit it, wouldn't that be exactly what she wants?
Ji Qingqing gritted her teeth and said, "Sister said I was framing you, so now aren't you framing me too?"
"You have to go in person to register for the Canglang Poetry Talk. If you register yourself and don't admit it, do you want to blame me?"
Ji Yuntang glanced at her coldly, "This princess didn't even know that the Canglang Poetry Contest had opened up three places for women to participate this year, so how could she have signed up?"
"On the day when the Qingyun Pavilion sent the invitation, this princess learned about this matter and truly understood how serious the consequences would be if I signed up but did not participate. They forced me to participate in the competition."
"If it was really me who reported it myself, why wouldn't I dare to admit it?"
When the people present heard their conversation, they were all shocked for a moment!
What? It turns out that Princess Ye didn’t sign up to attend the Canglang Poetry Talk herself?
But it was Miss Ji Er who reported it to her?
To be able to achieve such good results without doing any homework, this knowledge is simply too incredible!
Everyone looked at Ji Yuntang with a hint of admiration in their eyes.
In the past, they often heard that so-and-so was a child prodigy in studies, but when they actually saw Ji Yuntang's abilities, they realized how vulnerable the so-called child prodigy was in front of a true genius.
Ji Yuntang is a true genius that only appears once in a century, he is all-rounder!
Ji Qingqing felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife when she heard the people around her praising Ji Yuntang.
The reason why she signed up for Ji Yuntang was because she wanted to see her embarrass herself.
Unexpectedly, her actions actually helped Ji Yuntang win countless good reputations.
Compared with Ji Yuntang, she was like a clown, and nothing she did could surpass her.
Seeing that Ji Qingqing was so anxious that she was about to cry, Luo Jingshen stood up suddenly and scolded in a cold voice:
"Princess Ye, Miss Ji is your sister. How can you hold her hair like this? Let go!"
Ji Yuntang raised her eyebrows with a sneer on her lips. She pulled Ji Qingqing's hair even harder and dragged her over.
