Chapter 37: The Sixth Prince's Divine Assist

Chapter 37 The Sixth Prince's Divine Assist
Since the emperor wanted to summon him, it was naturally impossible for Master Ye to keep him.

Yun Shu quickly rushed from the upper study to the imperial study.

But she didn't come alone. This time, she brought Yun Chuhuan with her.

Inside the house, upon hearing that Yun Chuhuan had also come along, Emperor Xuanwu's eyes moved, as if he had thought of something.
But he didn't say anything else and directly let the two of them into the imperial study.

"My son, I pay my respects to my father."

"Get up."

Emperor Xuanwu's calm voice came from above:
"I summoned you here today because Master Li has something he needs to ask you clearly."

It was clearly an impeachment, but when he said it, it became something that needed to be clarified.

It was obvious that Emperor Xuanwu wanted to show favoritism, which made the other ministers around him remain silent.

Only Li Xianyun was still indignant——

If it wasn't the Fifth Princess, his wife would have endured it for so many years. Why would she suddenly want a divorce?
If it weren't for the Fifth Princess, he wouldn't have to endure the ridicule and mockery of others!
Obviously, everything is thanks to the Fifth Princess, but now Your Majesty wants to protect the Fifth Princess?

That depends on whether he agrees or not!
Didn’t he say he had something to clarify?
Well, then let him ask in front of all the ministers until the emperor can no longer show favoritism!
Thinking of this, Li Xianyun couldn't help but take a step forward:
"I do have one thing that I do not understand. I would like to ask Your Highness the Princess to explain it to me."

"Master Li, if you have any questions, please speak up."

Yun Shu looked innocent and nodded readily:
"I will tell you everything I know."

"Then I would like to thank Your Highness first."

Li Xianyun sneered in his heart and slowly said:

"A question, Your Highness the Fifth Princess, is it you who founded the Capital Weekly?"

"Lord Li is wrong. The Capital Weekly was co-founded by this prince and my fifth sister!"

When Yun Chuhuan heard this question, he immediately became anxious.

You know, he originally agreed to partner with Yun Shu to do this just to have a name in it.

As a result, over the past month, Yun Shu's "Cao Gongzi He Loves" series and the sad and abusive articles have attracted a lot of attention.

When talking about the Capital Weekly, almost everyone only remembers Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, and has no idea that there is also His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince!

Yun Chuhuan was worried about how to get his name out there.
Now that Li Xianyun actually asked such a question in front of him, of course he couldn't help it.

On the other side, Li Xianyun, who originally thought that today's matter was a sure thing, was startled when he saw the Sixth Prince suddenly appear.
After a while, he spoke again, changing his words:
"Then, the content printed in the weekly newspaper is always decided by Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess, right?"

"That was a joint decision made by this prince and my fifth sister!"

Yun Chuhuan raised his chin proudly and continued:

"Although Fifth Sister made the decision alone before, starting from today's issue, including every issue in the future, this prince will review it in advance with Fifth Sister!"

Li Xianyun: “!!!”

Is this Sixth Prince crazy?

It's not some great thing that will drop money from the sky, so why is he rushing to get it?
Originally, if only the emperor was biased, he would still think he had some chance of winning.

After all, as long as he is not a tyrant who acts on his own, even if he is an emperor, he cannot ignore the opinions of his ministers and act according to his own wishes in many cases.

But now that the Sixth Prince has also gotten involved, things are very different!

Who doesn’t know that standing behind the Sixth Prince is the old fox, the Left Prime Minister?
The Left Prime Minister, Liu Yankun, is an old fellow who has been immersed in the court for decades. He has enormous and complex power, and his scheming is unfathomable!
With the support of the ministers led by him and the emperor who was biased,

It would be strange if his impeachment could succeed this time!

It's one thing to understand it in your heart, but it's also hard to let him just give up in disgrace.

Li Xianyun had a tense face, gritted his teeth, and continued:
"Then, Your Highnesses, do you know that the last article in this weekly newspaper is suspected of making irresponsible remarks about court officials and leaking important court events?" "Isn't Lord Li's words too harsh?"

Yun Shu, who had been silent ever since Yun Chuhuan interrupted to answer Li Xianyun's question, finally calmed down the Sixth Prince who was about to get angry when she heard this sentence.

She tilted her head slightly, as if she were a naive little princess:

"You are making irresponsible comments about court officials. Did I make any comments about any ministers in that article?"

"……No."

Li Xianyun's expression froze:
"But you wrote about important court events, and they concerned court officials, and thus caused countless people to discuss the court officials!"

"So Lord Li, your impeachment of me is actually a court secret?"

Yun Shu looked at a loss, and turned to look for her father:
"Father, did this subject really accidentally leak a secret?"

"……No."

Emperor Xuanwu's mouth twitched, and he cursed the little brat in his heart for being such a good actor, but his face was still majestic:
"What kind of secret is this?"

“So it doesn’t count!”

Yun Shu's tense expression instantly relaxed, with a look of relief on his face:
"That's fine. It's not a secret that can't be passed on to others. Lord Li, when you impeached me, didn't you come to the palace and submit your memorial openly?
I wasn't afraid of being known by others then, so why am I not afraid of it now?

Come to think of it, this matter has something to do with me as well, right?
By the way, I have written about the story of the Sixth Prince before!
According to what Lord Li said, am I still making irresponsible remarks about the prince and princess?"

As she spoke, she glanced at Yun Chuhuan beside her and asked in a very serious tone:
"Sixth brother, do you mind?"

"Of course this prince doesn't mind!"

Yun Chuhuan was smart for once, and immediately asked Yun Shu:

"Fifth sister, do you mind?"

Yun Shu shrugged: "I don't mind either."

"Then we don't mind..."

Yun Chuhuan dragged out his tone, learning the trick his father had used to fine him a hundred taels of gold.

"Lord Li, are you more noble than the princes and princesses?"

This is serious again!

Li Xianyun hurriedly bowed:
"Your Majesty, I dare not!"

“Why can’t I write?”

Yun Shu whispered in a voice that everyone present could hear:
"Did you do something bad and are afraid that too many people will know about it?"

Li Xianyun: "..."

Emperor Xuanwu: “…”

Ministers: "..."

Isn't it just a guilty conscience?

He favored his concubine and neglected his wife, causing his wife to divorce him. Instead of reflecting on his own problems, he blamed the fifth princess.

Unexpectedly, the fifth princess was not someone to be trifled with, and she exposed him again...

Tsk tsk tsk, now I really have no face or dignity left!
