The hall instantly quietened down, and everyone turned to look at the who spoke.

Could this kind of head come out? Even if he was going to deal with Mo Wei Nong, he shouldn't have said such words in this kind of situation.

She glanced at Ji Lan Yu, and asked solemnly, "Then according to what Miss Ji intends, what should we do?"

Ji Lan Yu pursed her lips. Of course she hoped to punish Mo Wei Nong for lying to the monarch.

However, this matter was not up to her to decide. She immediately looked in the direction of the screen and said, "Everything depends on Your Highness."

The corner of Yuan Jin's mouth raised, but Cen Si suddenly tensed up when he saw this.

Ji Lan Yu's words immediately caused everyone to turn their gaze towards the screen, and Fan mama did not speak, waiting for his decision.

Mo Wei Nong also frowned, he was not afraid of any punishment, in any case, she was not afraid of people with shoes, so he would have the ability to escape even if he punished her.

Of course, a small punishment would be fine — for example, brushing her off.

Le Chen wanted to say a few words, but he was only a candidate for female envoy here.

Mo Qian Zhu, who was standing beside her, was a little nervous as she stared intently at the screen.

Only after a long time did he hear a clear voice, "Lady Mo, what do you say?"

This was a chance for her to defend herself.

Mo Wei Nong raised his eyebrows and laughed, "This humble daughter did not intentionally hide it from you, it is just that I have not had any guidance from the servants and am not in contact with many outsiders. Coming here today, and with the advice of the Fan mama and the rest of the people, he finally realized his mistake. Fortunately, the prince is a wise man, and so I let this humble girl wash off his makeup to reveal his true appearance. Otherwise, this humble girl would probably have to stop here and regret it for the rest of his life. "

Yuan Jin was startled, the smile on his face became bigger and bigger, and he could no longer hold it in.

An aesthetic distortion? It was because of her words.

Mo Qian Zhu had finally seen how glibly and eloquently this unremarkable young lady from the Second Branch could speak, and had even secretly flattered Fan mama and his flattery.

Fan mama's eyes couldn't help but brighten up a bit when he saw Mo Wei Nong. As expected, he was a good sapling, intelligent and generous.

Before Mo Wei Nong could finish his sentence, she turned his head towards Ji Lan Yu and innocently said, "Moreover, if one were to say that this commoner dressed up like an ugly woman because she had a frivolous attitude, and that Miss Ji smeared and powdered her own face to hide such a huge black mole, wouldn't that also mean that she was deceiving the world, disrespecting the female envoy's selection, and looking down on the Duke and the other lords, thinking that everyone was blind?"

"You, I didn't …" Ji Lan Yu didn't think that she would beat around the bush. Moreover, where did she get such a big black mole? It was just a tiny piece at the corner of her mouth. "You're clearly trying to argue, Your Highness. She's trying to force the truth out of you."

"Why does Miss Ji need to get angry from embarrassment? Did I say anything wrong? Everyone was just making a fool out of themselves. It was just an aesthetic difference, so why did they become so frivolous? Miss Ji can't be unhappy with me just because you can't choose yourself, right? "

Mo Wei Nong did not know what it meant to be overbearing, but Ji Lan Yu had provoked her with her own gun barrel, so he could not blame her for that.

However, in the end, there was still a Flame King here, and she knew how to stop there.

Hearing this, everyone did not say anything, but a subtle sound came from behind the screen.

Moments later, the sound of "Pa Pa Pa" rang out.

Flame King's laughing voice could be heard, "Mn, what you said makes a lot of sense."

"Thank you, Prince, for your insight." Mo Wei Nong flattered his again.

Yuan Jin was in a good mood, he waved his hand and said, "Fan mama, continue, bring out the people you are unrelated to. It's rare for This King to be the head examiner. It's only the first round, but there are already many untactful people who come out to disturb us. Are you treating This King's words as having no weight? "

Ji Yun immediately broke out in a cold sweat. This time, both times, they were his sons and daughters, Flame King was no different from a roll call.

He immediately got up and went behind the screen to beg for forgiveness, "Your Highness, please forgive me. It was this official who interrupted the assessment. When I return, I will definitely punish them well."

"Lord Ji has worked hard." It means you have to punish him.

"I don't dare." Ji Yun wiped his sweat before leaving.

Everyone was silent, and only after Ji Yun sat down did the Fan mama raise his voice and continue.

Ji Lan Yu had already been brought out, and it was probably within her expectations that not only would Flame King not blame Mo Wei Nong, she had even pushed the blame onto him with just a few words, causing his face to immediately flush red and his lips to tremble.

However, Mo Wei Nong calmly walked to Mo Qian Zhu's side and continued to watch as the other contestants came out.

Princess Le Chen secretly gave her a thumbs up, "I didn't expect you to be so tactful. When I spoke to you earlier, you didn't say anything at all."

"I like peace and quiet."

"You mean I'm too noisy?" She was a dignified Princess Le Chen, a talented beauty who was praised to be well-informed and had an elegant demeanor. How did she make it sound like she was the talkative Third Aunt and the Sixth Madam?

Mo Wei Nong did not admit nor deny it. He was just a little surprised by Flame King's attitude just now.

If it were just a small episode, it would have been fine, but the later part was clearly aimed at the Ji Family.

Could it be that there was a grudge between Flame King and himself? Hey, this is interesting.

Just as Mo Wei Nong was thinking of this, a snort came from his side.

She turned her head and saw a woman walking past her with hostility in her eyes.

Mo Wei Nong blinked his eyes, she did not know her at all.

"This is Miss Yu Family, Yu Shui Xian. Other than Princess Le Chen, she is the one who is most likely to become the next candidate to become the Empress Dowager." Mo Qian Zhu explained from her side.

Mo Wei Nong 'oh', just at this time, the first round of contestants had ended.

Fan mama made the people in the selection line up once again. This time, they only lined up for one line, since twenty people had already been filtered out.

The corner of her mouth twitched slightly when she saw that Mo Wei Nong was arranged in the middle by the Fan mama.

Then, the Fan mama ordered the people to remove the screen to allow the Flame King to carry out the final confirmation.

The screen was slowly pulled apart as Flame King's figure gradually revealed himself.

Mo Wei Nong looked up, and in the next moment, his pupils contracted, and he suddenly froze.
