Quick Transmigration: My First Female Skill Takes Effect

Chapter 41 Rebirth Novel, First Female Character 14

Wei Qi didn't believe it. She was going to find her father, holding her older sister's hand as well.

She was going to Taiji Palace to find her father, the Emperor.

Showa was pulled forward by her, and he explained to her, "What your elder brother said is true, Aki, I can't be an official."

She had no choice.

There's nothing that can be done about women of all genders.

Wei Qi stopped, and Zhao He thought she was going to give up, but to his surprise, she said, "Sister, the Emperor's word doesn't count; Father is the greatest."

She also taught her sister: "When you encounter problems, you can't just think about retreating; you have to solve the problem as it exists."

Showa was stunned as she led him to Taiji Palace.

What are you thinking?

The Crown Prince was taken aback, then retorted with a resentful tone, "Mother, what are you thinking? Between me and Aqi, who would you choose?"

The wind in the air seemed to suddenly stop.

The smell of gunpowder rose.

Clusters of fireworks exploded in their hearts.

Empress Shen's face turned cold. She had not yet fallen to the point of being questioned and scolded by the child she had raised herself.

If you want to question her, you should at least become emperor, not rely on her crown prince.

"Do you dare ask your father, the Emperor, that question?" Her cold gaze fixed on the Crown Prince. "If you do, I can give you an immediate answer."

The crown prince was panting heavily, his eyes filled with anger.

How dare he ask?

How can you ask that?

Empress Shen understood his meaning and made her own clear: "Then how dare you ask me?"

The crown prince turned his head away, choosing to avoid the situation.

He knew that the mother and son could no longer have a calm conversation, so he could only offer his heartfelt advice.

"Mother, please persuade Aqi not to overstep her bounds again. She should be a good sister to me, and she will have everything she needs in the future."

He took a step toward the door and added, "Also, I do not agree to canceling my elder sister's marriage to the Marquis of Yi'an's family."

"Please let your sister think it over carefully."

Empress Shen watched the Crown Prince's departing figure, feeling a headache coming on. Qiu Yue came in and hurriedly helped her massage the sides of her head.

What are your thoughts?

Taiji Palace.

Emperor Yongwen looked at Aqi, who was pulling his eldest daughter and demanding an official position with a straight face, and thought that she was just like him, and her courage was commendable.

To Showa's utter surprise, his father did not immediately refuse after hearing everything.

Instead, they asked her what she thought about it.

Is the question about marriage or official position?

She knew to ask about his official position, but instead answered about his marriage.

"Your Majesty desires a husband with whom you share mutual affection. Pei Xing is a talented man, but he is not suitable for you," she replied somewhat nervously.

But when she caught a glimpse of Emperor Yongwen's meaningful gaze out of the corner of her eye, she swallowed hard and continued, "As for official positions, I don't want to put Father in a difficult position."

She acted like a good daughter, showing no intention of fighting for herself.

Emperor Yongwen was not disappointed, because he had never placed his hopes on her.

He pulled Wei Qi, who was playing with his memorial, over.

"You want your elder sister to hold an official position so you can prove Pei Xing is unworthy of her?"

"Um."

Wei Qi nodded, and most importantly, the clan leader had one, so why didn't her older sister?

She made no attempt to hide her gossip about the Imperial Clan Court from the Emperor. As for the source, Aunt Cheng'an loved to complain about her family, and the Imperial Clan Court occupied a significant portion of those conversations.

Of course, he's portrayed as a villain.

Emperor Yongwen smiled confidently: "No official position is needed. Your elder sister can also annul the engagement. Leave it to me."

He should investigate Pei Xing; he'll always try to gain the moral high ground.

As for not being able to find it, that's impossible. How could someone not find evidence if they wanted it?

Wei Qi clapped her hands and looked at him with envy: "Father is so amazing. When I grow up, I want to be as amazing as Father." As she spoke, she put her hands together and made a wish.

Emperor Yongwen only felt that his child was honest and admired him.

The two are truly a father and daughter by nature.

Showa watched the heartwarming interaction between father and daughter from the sidelines.

Not long after.

An eunuch came in to report that the Imperial Clan Court Minister, the two Grand Secretaries, and the Minister of Rites requested an audience.

Emperor Yongwen gave a cold laugh at the door and told Wei Qi and Zhaohe to go back.

The two met at the door.

Wei Qi glanced critically at her relative and saw that Zong Zheng's steps were unsteady, with a few drops of sweat on his forehead, and his face was as pale as when he had just left.

She said sincerely, "If your health deteriorates, you should tell Father Emperor so that someone can be selected to take over your duties as soon as possible."

"Go home and rest well; good health is the most important thing."

Wei Qi's sincerity clearly did not truly please the Imperial Clan.

Zongzheng enjoyed his time as Zongzhengqing, wielding all the power of the imperial family.

Asking him to step down is almost like asking him to take half his life.

He wanted to rebuke her, but seeing that Wei Qi wasn't even as tall as his waist, he pleaded earnestly, "Princess, wouldn't it be better for you to just be a princess?"

"With His Highness the Crown Prince around, you don't need to worry about anything. Just live a comfortable life. Let the Crown Prince do all the hard work."

"When you grow up, he can choose a virtuous husband for you, and you'll live a happy and fulfilling life together, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Wei Qi didn't understand everything, but he grasped the core meaning.

This person wanted to prevent her from ascending the throne.

"Hmph, I think you're getting senile. You like to make decisions for others so much. Just you wait."

Wei Qi turned and went back.

Showa couldn't stop her.

"Father, Father... the Imperial Clan Minister is bullying me."

When the Imperial Clan Secretary and his entourage entered, Wei Qi was standing to the left of Emperor Yongwen, pointing and gesturing at them as they entered.

They are clearly complaining.

The other three looked at Zongzheng speechlessly, and then at Wei Qi speechlessly as well.

The little child, not even as tall as the imperial desk, actually had the idea of ​​causing a huge uproar.

The three who came were Minister Zheng of the Secretariat, Minister Yu of the Chancellery, and Minister Kang of the Ministry of Rites.

The three of them were on duty.

However, the Imperial Clan Headmaster happened to run into him and told him about the Changqiu Palace incident.

The princess is ambitious, the emperor is ambiguous, and the crown prince is weak and pitiful.

Furthermore, the word "朕" (zhen) can only be used by the emperor; otherwise, the rule would be broken and the country would be in chaos.

Da Yong is in danger.

In short, make it as serious as possible.

Yu Xiangong enviously recalled the imposing presence of Minister Han of the Ministry of Personnel, who prevented the Minister of the Imperial Clan from taking anyone away. Their ministry was different; he wasn't assertive enough.

Frustrated, they came to contradict His Majesty.

With a bitter face, he shared the same plight as the Minister of Rites, who had also been brought in.

Minister Kang knew that Prince Cheng of the Imperial Clan had met with Empress Taizong, who had served as regent, and had lived a life of hardship for decades.

It wasn't until the late emperor that he was able to resume the life of wealth and privilege that members of the imperial family were entitled to.

Therefore, he disliked women, especially those with their own ideas, and only wanted people to be complete dolls.

It is said that he once suggested that the Empress Dowager take out the women's precepts from the previous dynasty and continue to use them as books bestowed upon women in the current dynasty.

The Empress Dowager refused and completely ignored him.

Then they asked Princess Xihe to persuade the Empress Dowager, but she almost got beaten up.

It was only after the emperor intervened that the two sides resumed speaking, though they spoke very little, counting the number of conversations they had throughout the year on their fingers.

Minister Kang also heard his wife say disdainfully, "A grown man like you, instead of doing a good job as an official, serving the emperor, the people, and the world, all you know how to do is manipulate women."

"This incompetent man can only flaunt his power among women like this."

"Pah, what a piece of junk."

"Your Majesty!" Zongzheng cried out in anguish, tears streaming down his face.

Bring Minister Kang back from the past.

Zongzheng knelt on the ground, two strands of white hair hanging loose: "Please put the fate of the country first, and order Princess Chenzhao to relinquish her title and fiefdom, and go to the temple to pray for the Great Yong Dynasty."

The three people following behind trembled, as if their souls had left the world: No, you didn't tell us this.

Are we not here to advise His Majesty?
