Chu Rou's heart rose in an instant. She looked at the emperor who was sitting in a high position, and realised that he was staring at Mo Qingyan the entire time.

One had to know that Mo Qingyan should have always been one of his defeated opponents, the chess piece in his own right.

How did it become like this?

"Someone, send someone to summon the abbot of Gongji Temple." The Gongji Temple wasn't far from the palace, so it only took them two hours to gallop back and forth.

Naturally, no one dared to disobey Long Sheng's orders. Even if Li Sheng was unwilling, he could only do so.

"Your Majesty, this subject's daughter dares to ask Your Majesty to bestow a seat for this subject's daughter's father! This subject's daughter's father has been in poor health for the past few days, so this subject is very worried. "

Mo Qingyan knew that the current Emperor was completely bewitched by her beauty. She didn't need to expend too much energy. She lowered her head with a sarcastic smile on her face.

How could she ever imagine that one day, she would actually want to use her beauty to do something.

"I've really forgotten. Look at my memory!" Zhou De. "

Long Sheng's gaze could be said to have been on Mo Qingyan the entire time. Last time, Mo Qingyan could display a submissive attitude, because he was afraid of arousing Long Sheng's interest in him.

But he didn't expect that even after a few turns, he still wasn't able to get past a barrier. Mo Qingyan sighed in the bottom of his heart, but he did not think too much into it. In the worst case scenario, he would just have to fend with the enemy and deal with the situation.

Being called out, Zhou De naturally knew what he had to do. Very quickly, someone carried four chairs up. Mo Qingyan and Chu Rou thanked the Emperor at the same time, and flames of gratitude leaked out from their eyes when they looked at each other.

The corner of Mo Qingyan's mouth raised into a smile, it had to be known that Chu Rou had never treated him with such an attitude before, and before long, the white lotus would reveal its true form.

The days of waiting were always long, neither long nor short. Before two hours had even passed, the abbot of Gongji Temple had already arrived at the imperial palace.

"This old monk pays his respect to the Emperor!" He paid his respects to the Emperor in accordance with etiquette, then received the jade pendant from the Emperor. He carefully observed the handwriting on the outer edge of the jade pendant.

Just that, when he had placed down the jade pendant, before he could even speak, he heard the Prime Minister Chu say with a cold voice: "You better look carefully, if you lie, then you won't be able to take the consequences."

Mo Qingyan could not help but frown, this was clearly a threat. Only, the abbot of this Gongji Temple had a face full of tranquility.

"Prime Minister, don't worry. The Minister doesn't use words." The abbot of the Gongji Temple calmly glanced at Mo Qingyan, who was somewhat baffled.

"Reporting to your majesty, the name on this jade pendant is indeed carved by Grandmaster Yan Jiuqing himself." Back then, when Lord Shang Shu came to the temple, this old monk was fortunate enough to see the entire process. "

"Thus, this Jade Pendant Old Na truly believes that it is from the Miss Mo." The abbot of Gongji Temple said, as he cast his gaze towards the person seated in the highest seat.

He looked at Mo Qingyan once again, and silently sighed in the bottom of his heart. Mo Qingyan got the answer he wanted the most, and slowly relaxed.

"If that's the case, then it does prove that someone is framing Mo Qingyan." Long Sheng was also very satisfied with this result. As long as it was not Mo Qingyan after all, then it didn't matter to him who it was.

"Your majesty, I beg that the emperor must uphold justice for this subject's daughter." When Mo Qingyan was at his current state, he would have to seek benefits for himself. One had to know that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

"In the past few days, rumors about me sending people to assassinate Miss Chu have spread like crazy outside. Everyone said that I had a venomous heart, and said that this subject's daughter held a grudge towards Miss Chu because of the matter regarding Poetry Assemble. "

"This subject's daughter's reputation outside has almost been ruined. She truly does not deserve the position of an examiner of Poetry Assemble. I would rather ask the Emperor to give this position to Miss Chu. "

Chu Rou could use this rumor to hurt himself, then he could use it to turn back the way he came. Mo Qingyan said with tears in her voice, causing people to be moved.

Chu Rou clenched her teeth, the pleasure of winning had swept through her heart. He just hadn't thought that the chess piece in his hand would backfire on him like that.

"Is there such a thing?" How could Long Sheng not understand the meaning behind Mo Qingyan's words, it was just that he did not have much of a reaction.

Even if she was a beauty that tricked people, he still maintained his consciousness.

Now that they believed Mo Qingyan's words, inviting the abbot of Gongji Temple over was akin to humiliating the Prime Minister Chu in front of everyone. He could not make it very difficult for the Prime Minister Chu.

"Most of the citizens in this city don't know that they're being led out by rumors. The emperor will have to deal with this sort of atmosphere in the future."

Mo Qingyan didn't know why, but he suddenly thought of his own grand plan. She lowered her head, but her mind was preoccupied.

"Girl, what you said is right. We should pay more attention to this matter from now on." Long Sheng laughed out loud.

"As for the position of examiners for Poetry Assemble you mentioned, it was specially requested for you by the crown prince and the Ninth Prince. You can't just simply switch people. "

"My two sons have always been very assertive." Long Sheng's words could be said to have completely stunned him on the spot.

In her memory, the crown prince had revolved around her. Even though she had already given her body to Ninth Prince, she still enjoyed the feeling of being pursued by the crown prince.

When he had consecutively become an examiner of Poetry Assemble, most of them had been contributed by the crown prince. What Chu Rou did not expect was that Long Tianze actually recommended Mo Qingyan.

Chu Rou fiercely bit his lower lip as he clenched his fist under his wide sleeves. The fingernail pierced into the palm but Chu Rou did not feel any pain.

She only stared at Mo Qingyan with incomparable hatred, as if she wanted to tear him into pieces.

Mo Qingyan naturally noticed Chu Rou's gaze, and she was extremely happy at the bottom of her heart.

Mo Qingyan's words had a huge impact on Chu Rou, so Mo Qingyan knew very well.

Only, Mo Qingyan did not expect this either. Long Tianze actually recommended for the position of examiner.

Furthermore, from the looks of it, it was something Chu Rou secretly decided on without knowing. Looks like, Long Tianze would have to dig his own grave in the near future.

"Since this matter has already been made clear, let the two dear officials take their beloved daughter away. Today, I am tired too. " Long Sheng suddenly waved for them to leave.
