Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Wei Qi didn't feel there was anything she couldn't say.

She frowned, not understanding why everyone else was kneeling down, even though she was only angry at Zongzheng.

The emperor would not implicate the innocent. Wei Qi, who believed he would surely become a wise ruler when he grew up, followed suit.

She was puzzled.

Emperor Yongwen looked at the child's puzzled expression, completely ignoring any inappropriate words the child might have said, and acted as usual.

The people kneeling inside the hall were like ordinary meals to him.

Who hasn't knelt before the emperor?

The emperor pulled Wei Qi into his arms again and explained attentively, "Aqi, they knelt because the character '朕' (Zhen, meaning 'I' or 'I') can only be used by the emperor. If others say it, it is considered treason and rebellion."

"Only the emperor can have it?" she asked, still confused, as she strained towards her mother's direction.

Emperor Yongwen: "Hmm."

Wei Qi pulled the Empress up by the arm, and the Empress almost fell. She had no choice but to give in to her daughter's stubbornness and her stubbornness.

Emperor Yongwen smiled at the crowd and said, "Rise."

"It's just a family dinner, no need for formalities."

He offered no explanation or question regarding his daughter's words.

Everyone: Hehe, their bowing has nothing to do with the family banquet.

Xihe felt as if she had taken a cold shower in winter and hadn't recovered yet. She staggered and was helped up by the female official behind her.

His gaze turned to the Empress Dowager.

From the very beginning, the Empress Dowager was as steady as Mount Tai.

She looked relaxed, as if her dramatic words were nothing out of the ordinary.

The Empress Dowager knew that Xihe had already given an answer in her heart.

Before she could think any further, the father and daughter started again.

Wei Qi asked, puzzled, "But Father, isn't the young emperor the emperor?"

Emperor Yongwen, how did he explain that there can only be one emperor, just as there cannot be two suns in the sky and two emperors on earth?

"Yes, but..."

"His Majesty."

Empress Shen stopped her.

She caught a glimpse of the prince's pale face and panicked eyes out of the corner of her eye, and knew she couldn't let the father and daughter continue their antics any longer.

Empress Shen, her face flushed with anger, called Emperor Yongwen back, gently patted Wei Qi's forehead, and said only one sentence: "Go study, A Qi."

"The answers lie in reading."

Wei Qi also noticed that her mother was angry. She didn't understand, but she didn't like her mother being angry.

He opened his arms, kissed Empress Shen's cheek, and touched her eyes: "Mother, be happy. Whoever makes you angry, I will teach them a lesson for you."

Empress Shen was speechless again. Who provoked me? You, and your father.

But this was her most beloved child, and she couldn't show her anger towards her in front of outsiders.

"...Do you want to study?" The topic finally shifted to a place where people could hear.

Wei Qi's eyes sparkled: "Yes, I want to study. Mother, please help me choose a study companion." She knew that her older siblings all had study companions when they were studying.

She wants it too.

"Okay, I'll choose a study companion for you."

Empress Shen began to address the matter of the companion, hoping to move past the suffocating scene from just now.

But the Imperial Clan Headmaster wouldn't allow it.

He wanted to kneel down and beg His Majesty not to show favoritism, but Emperor Yongwen's eyes were cold and unyielding, leaving no room for doubt. The natural superior, the controller of the dynasty, looked at him.

Warn him not to cause trouble.

Zongzheng's steps were bound to the spot as if he were in a cage, unable to move an inch.

The people in the palace were terrified by the emperor and his daughter, but they had to pretend nothing was wrong and wait for the banquet to end.

Princess Linyang put her arm around Zhu Mingyue's shoulder, afraid that her granddaughter would be frightened.

Zhu Mingyue was indeed frightened.

This sounds like the little princess wants to be the emperor, and the emperor doesn't seem to be refusing.

She glanced at the Crown Prince, who was still seated in his original position. He lowered his head and looked down, his gentle face pale. His hands on his lap were trembling, but his back was straight.

He was doing his utmost to defend the crown prince's dignity.

Just as I was about to feel sorry for the handsome, powerful, and tragic crown prince, I heard the emperor say something about choosing a study companion.

Following his wife and daughter's words, Emperor Yongwen immediately spotted two suitable candidates.

"The daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an, Lady Zhu, is quite good."

Zhu Mingyue: "..."

She involuntarily looked up at the emperor.

The crown prince raised his eyes.

Emperor Yongwen was pointing his palm in the direction of Zhu Mingyue to show the girl who had just asked whose daughter she was.

Wei Qi looked over.

Zhu Mingyue was around ten years old, and she already had the slender figure of a teenager, with a bright face and a mature demeanor.

"Yes, she's beautiful. Father, you're amazing. I really like her."

Zhu Mingyue clearly noticed that her grandmother's arms were holding her tighter, and several pairs of eyes were fixed on her.

She tried her best not to look for those gazes.

Emperor Yongwen looked at Princess Linyang and said, "Aunt, I watched Mingyue grow up. I thought she was innocent and naive, but I didn't expect her to be such a mature and steady child."

Princess Linyang maintained her smile, thinking to herself, "You watched them grow up, you watched the whole world grow up."

She cannot confront the emperor, especially now.

Having a weakness truly restricts one's ability to speak out.

All she could say was, "Yes."

Zhu Mingyue: Having been reborn after her entire family suffered a tragic death, she is naturally composed.

Unfortunately, being cautious was not the right time.

She shouldn't have come to the palace.

Despite her confidence being shattered countless times, she was moved by a few words from the Emperor and Princess Chenzhao, proving herself to be an outstanding individual among the crowd.

Otherwise, why would they be the first to be chosen and even be the one to be noticed?

She still has charm.

Now that Wei Qi had a study companion, he wanted to ask for a second one: "Father, who else is there?"

Emperor Yongwen then looked at the position of Prince Rong: "Your uncle Prince Rong's youngest daughter, Mingzhu, is lively and active; you two will get along well."

Her title was Princess Mingzhu, and her real name was Wei Xi.

She was eight or nine years old, wearing an orange shirt with cloud patterns and two silver bells hanging in her hair. She blinked her eyes and looked at Wei Qi.

She rose under her father's gaze, bowed, and said in a loud voice, "Uncle Emperor, Sister Chenzhao."

Prince Rong had always unconditionally supported the emperor's decisions, deciding to send his daughter to be a companion to the emperor. But thinking of his son who was by the crown prince's side, he started to feel a headache coming on.

Zhu Mingyue and her grandmother exchanged a silent glance, wondering why they hadn't thought of that earlier.

The two silently looked away again.

I warned myself: Remember this next time.

Wei Qi stood up from Empress Shen's embrace, ran to Wei Xi's side, took her hand, and said affectionately, "Hello, Sister Mingzhu. We will study together in the future."

"Does your sister like reading?"

Wei Xi wanted to honestly shake her head, but remembering her father's instructions to listen to Uncle Huang, she hesitated and stood there, looking troubled.

"I understand."

Wei Qi nodded like an adult, and Wei Xi's eyes flashed with surprise.

But after the next sentence, her face fell again.

"But we must study."

At the end of the reading discussion, the food that was served was not something anyone was in the mood to taste; they only ate it out of courtesy to the host.

As the host of the banquet, the Empress Dowager, after the banquet was ruined, instructed that a better one be held next time.

It makes everyone feel happy.

As the guests left the banquet, the conversations that took place began to reach the ears of well-informed people.

Empress Shen was taking her three children back to Kunning Palace.
