Ye Shangyi heard his words in disbelief.
It usually didn't matter if she acted a little arrogant. None of the other young ladies here came from a family as distinguished as hers.
But the person reprimanding her now was the Crown Prince of Cangyun Country!
Ye Shangyi felt utterly humiliated, her face ashen with embarrassment.
She shot Shen Ningning a resentful glance. "I... I..."
In the end, Ye Shangyi couldn't bear the public humiliation. She covered her face, crying, and ran off.
The elder aunt gave a meaningful look, signaling a little palace maid to follow and keep an eye on her, lest anything happen.
"Did everyone hear the Crown Prince? The selection for female officials is absolutely fair. Everyone starts from the same point. There are no exceptions, and certainly no preferential treatment."
The elder aunt declared this sternly in front of Mo Lingwei.
