Chapter 78 – Spine-chilling woman (1) (2/2)

As things were at this step, Ye Lang actually had nothing else to do, the results would be calculated by the Emperor himself, although he didn’t quite understand Ye Lang’s questions, but this was merely a test only, and it wasn’t the sole deciding factor of who would be the successor.

However, at this present time, the Emperor suddenly asked a question out of the blue:

“Ye Lang, I want to ask you a question.”

“?? What?”

“If I let you choose my successor, amongst these children, who would you pick?” The Emperor asked a question that shocked everyone, absolutely no one had thought that he would ask Ye Lang this type of question.

At this moment, everyone faced Ye Lang, desiring his reply, although this answer perhaps didn’t have much use, but there were people who still took note of it.

“If you let me choose, I will choose one from amongst them.” Ye Lang had betrayed everyone’s expectations and had actually pointed to those who hadn’t answered correctly even one question.

Was it bias?

“Don’t think that I’m biased, this is what I opt for, but I also know that they maybe be better suited to be the monarch of a country.” Ye Lang pointed again towards those who had answered roughly 10 questions correctly.

“??” This situation, everyone didn’t understand, and the thing that made people even more confused was:

“As for her, she’s the sole person that needs to be gotten rid off, she’s absolutely not fit for this succession of the emperor’s position!!” Ye Lang pointed at one person, the one who had answered all the questions correctly: Zhao Ya Rou!!

This had made everyone extremely baffled, he had exactly eliminated the person who had answered everything correctly, and yet felt that those who had answered 10 questions right would be more suitable, this made people not only suspect the odd criterion for Ye Lang’s questions!

“Ye Lang!!” Zhao Ya Rou grit her teeth whilst looking at Ye Lang.

“Your majesty, she’s scaring me, I suggest that you kill her in order to nip the problem in the bud!” Ye Lang pointed at Zhao Ya Rou and directly said his thoughts out.

“……”

Once again, the entire area became quiet. What kind of word were these? Telling a father to kill his own daughter. Moreover, completely lacking reasoning on the subject.

“Ye Lang, why are you playing dumping again. Eighth sister, don’t mind him, he’s just this type of idiot.” Princess Qi promptly dragged Ye Lang.

“I only tell the truth. You’ll understand it later.” Ye Lang guilelessly said it, furthermore he didn’t think he said anything wrong.

“Your questions, what kind of standard did they have?” The Emperor had finally asked the vital question.

What on earth were Ye Lang’s questions?

“There was a family of three, consisting of two daughters and a mother. After the mother had passed away, the younger sister saw a noble that she didn’t see before at the funeral, it was love at first sight for her, and after a month, the younger sister had killed her older sister, why was this so?”

……

“In the past, there was a beautiful princess that was cursed by a magician, and she was locked in a castle, resting in eternal slumber. It was rumored only a kiss with deep feelings would be able to awaken the princess. Afterwards, a dashing prince took the castle by storm, saving the princess. However, once he had kissed the princess to awaken her, he was killed by the princess. Why was this so?”

……

You should understand it now, his questions were all psychological questions. Those who had answered more quesitons correctly, their hearts would be more twisted!! As for Zhao Ya Rou, who had answered everything correctly, she was definitely the most twisted one amongst them!!
