Chapter 703: Uproar in the Pce <1>"What is it?" Princess Mu Fei Xin turned around to look at Prince Yang Lu in confusion.


    "Would we be able to find out by following her if she really ns something for First Young Miss Nan?" Prince Yang Lu leaned closer and whispered near Princess Mu Fei Xin''s ear. This was not something that servants supposed to hear, so he whispered near her ear.


    The servants all lowered their heads.


    They were not allowed to see the intimacy of their masters, so they chose to look at the decorations on their shoes. It didn''t seem to be that bad and they had cleaned it thoroughly before.


    Princess Mu Fei Xin''s eyes shed for a moment before she shook her head. "It might seem usible, but we''ll be toote because she''ll only pay a visit when everything is over."


    Right.


    There was no need for her to check the whereabouts of Nan Hua personally since it could be done by the servants around her. They could report when everything was ready to Princess Hu and all.


    Prince Yang Lu mumbled, "How troublesome."


    Princess Mu Fei Xin could only reveal a helpless smile. She reacted toote because Nan Hua was faster than her. If Nan Hua and that servant walked a bit slower, she might have been able to catch up to them in order to stop them.


    "However, I can''t rule out the possibilities that there might be someone among the youngdies who will move in ordance to her order." Princess Mu Fei Xin furrowed her eyebrows.


    "Send some servants to keep on looking while we return first. Let''s take a look at the situation in the selection."


    "Alright."


    The two of them returned to the courtyard, but they couldn''t see Princess Hu anywhere. It seemed that while she was heading towards here, she didn''t stop in the courtyard where the Empress Selection took ce and instead continued going.


    Princess Mu Fei Xin furrowed her eyebrows and was about to ask Prince Yang Lu to return when she saw Empress Dowager Yan pped her hand for the girls to follow her into the drawing room.


    "Drawing room?" Princess Mu Fei Xin mumbled before realizing that thest section was math. In that case, staying outdoor would be a bit inappropriate. That was why there would be the drawing room prepared for them to hold thest contest. There were already only 10 girls left, each of them had passed the qualification.


    The rest of them were still there, asking permission to watch even though they didn''t pass. Since there was nothing to hide, Empress Dowager Yan had allowed them to stay behind in order to watch the process.


    "Pleasee with me." Empress Dowager Yan led the girls to the drawing room.


    Princess Mu Fei Xin turned to look at Prince Yang Lu. She didn''t stay in this section of the pce that often, but she knew that there must be more than one room in that building where the drawing room was located.


    "Are there some empty rooms around the drawing room?" Princess Mu Fei Xin asked.


    Prince Yang Lu nodded. "There should be some. Let''s go."


    "Alright."


    Even though Princess Mu Fei Xin was worried, she didn''t know what she was supposed to do. She was not that familiar with the pce and there were not many servants who wanted to follow her words in this main pce. If it was her own pce, she definitely had control over the servant.


    But this is Emperor Yang Zhou''s pce.


    The servants here followed only Emperor Yang Zhou''s words and no other.


    While they were walking, Princess Mu Fei Xin then recalled that she had forgotten to ask what Prince Yang Lu talked with his older brother. "Is there something important that happen recently?"


    "Hmm? Imperial Brother asked to help some matters." Prince Yang Lu rubbed his chin as he thought about that matter. It was actually not that troublesome, but it was highly confidential. In fact, he was a bit surprised that his older brother actually divulged this matter to him.


    After the incident where he tried to take control the pce back then, his rtionship with Emperor Yang Zhou could only be said to be very bad. They barely met and talked with each other.


    Then the rebellions incident happened.


    He did talk a lot with Emperor Yang Zhou, but their rtionship with each other was not that good to the point that they would trust the other party. Since then, he had only met with Emperor Yang Zhou a few times in order to talk about the officials who used to follow him and now followed Emperor Yang Zhou because of his words.


    They had reached an agreement.


    But just now, Prince Yang Lu realized that his older brother actually told him about this matter.


    "I can''t tell you until it happened." Prince Yang Lu shed an apologetic smile.


    "It''s fine."


    Princess Mu Fei Xin understood that there were some matters that were not allowed to be said. She simply nodded to express her understanding. It was all matters that she definitely couldn''t pry because it involved the nation.


    She was not that busybody.


    "In this drawing room is thest test." Empress Dowager Yan swept her gaze across thedies in front of her. In fact, she knew that the criteria to select the Empress that Emperor Yang Zhou wanted was not for them to be the top of all subjects.


    But for them to have sufficient knowledge and good character.


    It was also because of this that Empress Dowager Yan made many mental note inside her mind when she analyzed these girls in front of her. The standard hasn''t been that high, which was why there were still several of them who followed her.


    "Your Highness, do you smell that?" one of the youngdies suddenly remarked.


    "Smell?"


    At that question, they all began to sniff around and realized that there was indeed some kind of weird smell lingering in the air.
