Chapter 212: The Emperor of Da Xia and His Ministers: If I Lock Two People Together, Can They Change Genders? (1 / 2)
The Daoist: “???”
Wait a minute, this is not how things were supposed to go! Weren’t they supposed to trigger the emperor’s wrath by accusing the Crown Prince? When did the target change?!
The Minister of the Imperial Sacrifices glanced at the Daoist, whose expression was slightly stiff. Guessing what the man was thinking, he couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.
Surprising, wasn’t it? The emperor’s “reverse scale” had not shifted, but it was far easier for both the emperor and the court to deal with an attack aimed at the Crown Prince rather than Bai Ze.
If Bai Ze were involved, it could easily turn into a conflict over religious incense offerings or a dispute among the divine and celestial beings. But targeting the Crown Prince? Now that was straightforward political strife.

Moreover, while the Crown Prince was the emperor’s reverse scale, Xu Yanmiao (the protagonist) was more like a bone spur lodged deep in his ribs.

[With this reaction… could the emperor have an illegitimate son? Like some ‘Hidden Prince’ trope?]
