Shangshufang, today is the last day for the Grand Master to teach in Shangshufang, so he is very strict.

He randomly checked all the students' endorsements one by one. Not surprisingly, except for the prince, all the princes were slapped.

Their foundations are so poor that ten-year-olds are better than them.

The fourth prince was even worse. Not only was he beaten five times, he was also reprimanded by the grand master, which was less than one ten-thousandth of what the prince and the prince accompanied him to read.

He is the majestic fourth prince, if he is not as good as the prince, he will recognize him.

But Ye Xi is the prince's face, and he said he is not as good as the prince's face, but he denied it.

When taking a break at noon, the fourth prince took advantage of the prince's absence and humiliated Zhou Jingling in public, saying: "Look carefully today, son of the Marquis of Wu'an, you look really good, no wonder you are favored by the prince."

"If the crown prince dislikes you in the future, you can come to my place, and I guarantee that your official career will be smooth."

Zhou Jingling frowned unobtrusively, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness may have misunderstood, I'm just the prince's companion."

All the princes and companions present couldn't believe it. Ever since Ye Xi became the prince's companion, he has been living in the Prince's East Palace. He only returned home when his father, Marquis Wu'an, celebrated his [-]th birthday.

Still go back to the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion with the prince.

They are inseparable every day, and the ghost believes that there is no trick between them.

Zhou Jingling has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and by looking at their expressions, you can tell that they don't believe it.

This ancient folk custom is not open, it seems that he will keep a distance from his old Gong in the future.

Zhou Jingling said: "These days, the distance between me and the prince is too close, but I am by no means his face, I am to supervise his study, the relationship between us is very pure."

Everyone snorted, Zhou Jingling told his book boy: "Go and call the prince."

It seems that the crown prince needs to clarify himself.

After a while, the prince came over angrily.

Seeing him like this, the fourth prince was instantly terrified.

The prince looked directly at the fourth prince, and said angrily: "The prince of Marquis Wu'an is just my companion. If anyone dares to spread rumors about my relationship with him in the future, I will never forgive him lightly."

"Fourth brother can't study well, but he is really good at wronging people."

"The grand master said that you are not as good as me and my companion in reading. You became angry and dared not bully me, so you bullied my companion. You are too small."

The fourth prince trembled in fright from the prince's falcon-like sharp expression.

The crown prince cared so much about Ye Xi that he would rather offend his brother than defend him.

He hurried over, bowed his head and apologized: "I am ignorant, I can't tell right from wrong, I believe what the maids and eunuchs say, I hope the crown prince and the prince will be happy."

The prince turned around and came to Zhou Jingling's side, ignoring him.

In the afternoon, during the riding and archery class, the fourth prince was galloping on the school grounds, and the prince kept practicing bow and arrow.

When the fourth prince passed behind him, he suddenly turned around and shot an arrow at the fourth prince.

The arrow flew past the fourth prince's face quickly, and a bloodstain immediately appeared on his smooth face.

The arrow nearly hit him in the head.

The fourth prince was so frightened that he lost his soul, he missed the saddle in a hurry and was thrown off by the horse.

The prince came to him with a sneer on his face and said with a sneer: "Coward."

The fourth prince slowly got up, not daring to speak out.

After school ended in the afternoon, the emperor summoned the prince to Zhengde Palace.

After the prince arrived, he asked, "Are the rumors about you and your companions true?"

The prince said: "It's fake."

The emperor continued: "You are not young anymore, you don't have a concubine yet, it's time to marry a princess."

The prince quickly said: "My son is not weak yet, so I don't want to marry the princess for the time being."

The emperor frowned and said angrily: "You are already in your twenties. When I was your age, I had wives and concubines in groups. Next month I must choose a crown princess."

The prince looked up at the emperor, he was already angry, disobeying him at this time would only be counterproductive.

He agreed: "My son obeys."

Zhou Jingling was practicing calligraphy in the study room of the East Palace, when he saw the crown prince returning with a sad face, he asked, "What's wrong with you, you're depressed."

The crown prince somehow felt that he was a little sorry for the crown prince, he backed away calmly and kept a distance from him, and said guiltily: "Next month, I will choose the crown princess."

How dare he marry the princess?

Zhou Jingling put the pen heavily on the table, glared at him, and said, "I won't allow it."

He won't let me marry a wife.

He won't please me, will he?

The prince's heart was instantly filled with joy, and he cautiously stepped forward and asked, "Why don't you allow me to marry the princess?"

Ask knowingly.

It was so obvious just now.

Zhou Jingling glared at him, and said angrily, "Because you are mine."

He really pleases me.

The prince was so excited that he was about to lose his mind, he quickly approached Zhou Jingling, put his arms around his waist, and whispered in his ear: "Okay, I am yours, I will not marry the princess."

Promising to the emperor today is just a stopgap measure.

Very good.

Zhou Jingling turned around and put her arms around the prince's neck, raised her feet slightly, and slowly pressed her lips against his.

The prince hugged him tightly, deepening the kiss.

The next day, the emperor announced in the morning court that he would choose a concubine for the crown prince in a month, and all ladies of the right age from court officials of the fifth rank and above could attend.

All eligible officers who had young ladies at home responded positively.

Even if their own daughters cannot be selected as the crown prince, it is good to be the side concubine and wife. When the prince ascends the throne as the emperor in the future, their daughters, as the old people around the prince, will definitely be named concubines. At that time, they will be the uncles of the country. His family will naturally rise with the tide.

In less than two days, more than 80 official ladies were registered.

After school, Zhou Jingling and the prince went to the study to practice calligraphy together.

The desk was full of booklets, and Zhou Jingling stepped forward to pick up one at random and open it for a look.

Lin Yashu, sixteen years old, the daughter of Lin Zheng, the servant of the household department, ranked fifth, known in the capital for her virtuous and virtuous virtues...can be chosen as the crown princess.

Big trotters!Scumbag!He just promised him not to marry the Crown Princess two days ago, and today the list of candidates for the Crown Princess came out.

Zhou Jing was furious, and unconsciously tightened the hand holding the booklet, and slammed the bent booklet into the prince's arms, and said angrily, "Aren't you not going to marry?"

He also randomly selected one from the mountain of books on the desk, which was the concubine's daughter of Fuguo's family.

He took another one, the daughter of the Yin family in Shuntian Prefecture.

Another one was drawn, and the information printed on it was still referring to the official woman who chose the crown princess.

Zhou Jingling threw all these books on the crown prince and said angrily, "Explain to me."

The prince quickly read the brochure, came to Zhou Jingling, and explained: "I only like you, and I will never marry the princess. These are all arranged by my father. When the time comes, I will just go through the motions. Don't choose."

Zhou Jingling looked at him and said, "I believe you for now."

If he was lied to, he would immediately complete the task, leave this world, and have nothing to do with him.

The prince called some eunuchs and ordered them: "Take all these books away, and don't let me see them again."

The eunuchs removed all these books in a short while.

The prince came and sat down beside Zhou Jingling, and said, "Don't you think there is something strange about this?"

"One year ago, my father urged me to marry the princess, but I declined on the spot, saying that I would start a family after being crowned, and my father agreed at that time."

"Two days ago, I suddenly regretted it. It must have been influenced by the rumors outside. I was worried that I would be bewitched by you to have no children in the future, and the society would be uneasy."

Zhou Jingling said: "So, the rumors between you and me were deliberately spread by someone."

Slander the prince and behead him for public display.

The communicator must be someone who is not afraid of death, or someone who has the ability to escape punishment.

The former is very little, but the latter is very much.

The rumor started half a month ago when he and the crown prince attended the birthday banquet of the Marquis of Wu'an. Judging from the situation at that time, all the ladies of the eunuch's family present may be the spreaders.

She fell in love with the prince, but the prince has never planned to marry the princess, and she will marry after a while, and after getting married, she will not be eligible to participate in the selection of the princess.

So she spread rumors about him and the prince, forcing the prince to choose a concubine.

Then she might become a princess.

She is a daughter of an official family, powerful and powerful, and has servants who are willing to take the blame for her. Even if she is discovered, the punishment will not come to her.

Another important point is that she has blind confidence in herself and feels that she will definitely be selected.

For those who meet these conditions, Zhou Jingling's younger sister Ye Fei first appeared in Zhou Jingling's mind.

At that time, when he and the crown prince were leaving the Marquis of Wu'an, Ye Fei suddenly appeared and stopped the crown prince, intending to seduce him.

The prince rejected her on the spot, but she was not reconciled, thinking that if her good-for-nothing elder brother Ye Xi could win the prince's favor, so could she.

So rumors spread, forcing the prince to choose a concubine, and by the way, using the pressure of public opinion to force the prince to stay away from him.

It's really self-deprecating, without self-knowledge.

Zhou Jingling said to the prince: "I have guessed the general candidate, and that person may be my sister Ye Fei."

The crown prince called for the bodyguard, and ordered: "Immediately find out who spread the rumors between me and the prince, and focus on investigating Ye Fei, the daughter of Marquis Wu'an."
