On the other hand, because of the friendship between his mother and Consort Shu, he had more opportunities to see his ninth brother than his other siblings. When Xiao Qing was young, he pestered him to play with him.
This child had never schemed against him. At that time, he treated him as his own brother.
Thinking of the past, Prince Anyang almost fell into a daze.
When he came back to his senses, he saw Xiao Qing still looking at him pleadingly. A hint of love flashed across his face.
“Have you really thought it through?”
He was actually afraid of his brother.
If he wanted to use Nangong Xiao, the Nangong Family would rise again.
After the Nangong Clan rose, they might not be loyal to him.
After all, compared to him, his brother had the blood of the Nangong Family flowing in his veins.
“1 have thought it through. Your Highness, please grant my wish!” Xiao Qing said without hesitation, and a smile appeared on his face.
Prince Anyang was a little surprised.
However, Prince Anyang’s expression immediately turned into hesitation.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“Your Highness, please grant Qing’er’s wish. This child doesn’t have any great ambitions. He just wants to become a scholar and support our family.”
Prince Anyang and Liang Yu were both shocked.
Seeing Xiao Qing’s face turn red, his expression became even more strange. “Cough, Qing’er, you want to take the imperial examination?” Prince Anyang asked Xiao Qing awkwardly.
They were born as princes and had a high status. They did not need to take the imperial examination at all.
When he first learned that Xiao Qing was in Qingyun Academy and that there was a high chance that he would take the imperial examination next year, he was a little surprised.
His ninth brother was really going to take the imperial examination? And his goal was to become a scholar?
Becoming a scholar was indeed not bad for someone living in a rural place like this.
But for a prince, a scholar who wasn’t even guaranteed to become an official, wouldn’t that be too lowly?
“Yes. The Academy would hold a major examination in the spring of next year, and the list of partic.i.p.ants would be decided.”
“If I pa.s.s, I can partic.i.p.ate in the county examination.” Xiao Qing replied.
Prince Anyang had a complicated expression.
“Why go through so much trouble? I can directly confer you an official position.” He said.
He didn’t know much about the imperial examinations, but he knew the general process.
It was very troublesome to take the test one level at a time.
Moreover, the environment during the examination was very harsh. Even healthy examinees would not be able to endure it.
Moreover, his ninth brother’s body was not in good condition.
Xiao Qing hurriedly cupped his hands at Prince Anyang.
“Thank you, Your Highness, but I want to rely on myself.”
“Since I have decided to a.s.sume a new ident.i.ty, 1 must do it fully.” He said in a deep voice.
Prince Anyang was shocked again.
Then, a hint of admiration flashed across his heart.
“Don’t call me Your Highness. Just treat me like your brother like before.” His heart softened and he smiled.
Xiao Qing was stunned.
Then, a smile appeared on his face.
“Please grant my wish, brother!” He smiled and cupped his hands at Prince Anyang.
“Haha, sure! I’ll do as you wish!” Prince Anyang finally agreed.
After saying that, he heaved a sigh of relief.
It was good that his brother did not have those thoughts. Otherwise, it would be troublesome for him.
“Thank you, brother!” Xiao Qing’s face lit up.
A moment later, he thought of something and bowed to Prince Anyang.
“There is one more thing.” He said respectfully.
Prince Anyang’s smile quickly disappeared.
“What is it?” He asked.
Xiao Qing looked at Prince Anyang, a hint of hesitation flashing across his face.
“It’s about my mother,” he said, embarra.s.sed.
Prince Anyang was stunned.
At the same time, the tension that had just risen in his heart instantly eased.
“Oh, on Consort Shu’s side, everything is fine. Don’t worry.”
“Previously, according to the Imperial Consort’s plan, we were prepared to take action in these two days to arrange for Consort Shu to leave the palace.
However, there was the matter of the Nangong Army escaping.”
As Prince Anyang spoke, he looked at Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue.
“Now the emperor suspects that Li Xiao is still alive and might contact Consort
Shu, so he has strengthened the surveillance.”
“Thus, I have discussed with the Imperial Consort and arranged for Consort
Shu to leave the palace.”
Li Xiao frowned and sighed in his heart.
He didn’t expect that his arrangements would actually implicate his sister.
Lin Xiaoyue reached out and held Li Xiao’s hand.
Li Xiao grabbed his.
“I’ll have to trouble Your Highness and the Imperial Consort about my sister-in-law’s matter.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled at Prince Anyang.
“Ms. Lin is too polite. Since 1 have agreed to this matter, 1 won’t go back on my word..”
