993. Chapter 993 Competition in front of the palace
Nangong Wushuang knew that the emperor's so-called knowledge naturally meant the second prince. Although she had investigated the affairs of the Zhou royal family, she didn't know much about the second prince except that his name was Chu Yi and he was extremely unpopular.
At this time, she didn't know that the second prince was the first person she saw after entering the palace that day.
She suddenly became more thoughtful and looked at him curiously.
Chu Yuanzhou heard that Chu Yi had compiled the history books at this time and took the initiative to go to the palace. His eyes couldn't help but deepen, and he sighed softly. It was him who came up with the idea first, but Chu Yi's appearance at this time made him...
It made him feel very uncomfortable.
Chu Yi quickly walked to the main hall. Nangong Wushuang was slightly shocked when she saw him. She didn't expect that he was the second prince Chu Yi!
Chu Yi was already very good-looking, and he changed into dark clothes before going to the palace today, which made him even more handsome.
But the expression on his face was very cold, with a serious air.
The emperor liked this kind of smell the most. Looking at Chu Yi going to the palace, he suddenly felt that Chu Yi looked a bit like himself when he was young.
When Chu Yi walked to the middle, he gave a big salute. The emperor saw that he performed the ceremony properly and his movements were very skillful, which fully demonstrated his calm demeanor.
Nangong Wushuang was slightly shocked and said, "Are you the second prince?"
Chu Yi ignored her, and after finishing the ceremony, he said loudly: "Father, the history books have been compiled."
The emperor was even more satisfied when he saw his unswerving look. He nodded lightly and said, "Yi'er really did not disappoint me. He was able to compile the history book in such a short period of time. I am very relieved. I will go to court."
Then I will go to the Imperial Study Room to read it."
"Thank you for the compliment, father!" Chu Yi said extremely calmly, not showing any trace of pride because of the emperor's praise.
Chu Yuanzhou saw the interaction between the emperor and Chu Yi and his son, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Chu Yi has always been the best at seizing opportunities. If Chu Yi told the things compiled by the history books at ordinary times,
The emperor might just respond lightly, not taking it too seriously, and then ask the Hanlin Academy scholar to review the manuscript.
But if Chu Yi handed over the manuscript at this time, the impression on the emperor would be very deep.
He also somewhat understood why Chu Yi appeared at this time, but...
The emperor was even more satisfied when he saw Chu Yi's performance. He said slowly: "That beauty is the princess of Tuoyin. She just said that my court has no talents. Yi'er, you and the princess should discuss it."
Nangong Wushuang just spoke to Chu Yi. Chu Yi did not abandon her. After hearing the emperor's words, she tilted her head slightly and looked at Chu Yi.
Chu Yi turned his head slightly, looked at her with a very blank look and said, "I wonder what the princess wants to compete with?"
He asked coldly, and there wasn't much emotion in his eyes. His whole person had a cold air from beginning to end.
Nangong Wushuang had known for a long time that he had this kind of temperament, so naturally he didn't take his coldness to heart. It was just that he looked so powerful and powerful, and he was many times stronger than those people Chu Yuanzhou had found before.
She really likes it in her heart.
There was a smile in her eyes, but she said calmly: "It's the same as the rules of those people the prince found earlier. The first is a literary fight, the second is a martial fight. If the second prince can defeat me twice in a row,
