Chapter 872

Everyone could hear that the emperor's tone was not kind and had a questioning tone to it. He clearly looked down on this green clothed girl, so he scoffed at her words, picking bones out of an egg.

Actually everyone understood that as a girl, it wasn't easy for her to say something like that. For these girls, they had never even heard of the Wei River or the Mother River before.

But the emperor didn't like it. The girls were happy in their hearts, but this angered Empress Dowager Zhou.

"Emperor, this girl has already said that she has several methods, but she hasn't said a single one yet. Why are you in such a rush!" She glared at Mo Chuan.

"Alright, then this minister will listen to this girl's' good 'methods." Mo Chuan curled his lips and said in a voice filled with sarcasm.

Empress Dowager Zhou was even angrier. She could see that her son thought this girl was ugly, so he was making things difficult for her.

But no matter how ugly she was, she couldn't compare to this girl's talent!

"This girl, don't worry and speak boldly. Even if you are wrong, this widow will help you." Empress Dowager Zhou turned to look at the green clothed girl.

She was already feeling a bit angry with her son.

She liked this girl, but her son didn't like her. She wanted her son to open his eyes and see what a virtuous and talented girl was like! She couldn't sit on the empress' throne just because she had a face that could cause the downfall of a country!

Facing the emperor's ridicule and Empress Dowager Zhou's affirmation, the green clothed girl's expression did not change at all. She still had an indifferent look.

"I ask the emperor, what method did the officials you sent to control the river use to control the Wei River? Did they all use methods to strengthen and raise the dam? "

"Humph!" What answered her was a cold snort from Mo Chuan.

The green clothed girl nodded and said, "Only knowing how to block it and not know how to control it, that's just treating the symptoms and not the root cause. No wonder the Wei River bursts its dam every year, becoming worse and worse."

Mo Chuan said with a cold smile, "Your meaning is that the officials this one sent to control the river don't even know how to control the river as well as a little girl like you? Then how about this one sends you to control the river? "

"As long as the emperor gives the order, this little girl is willing to go." The green clothed girl replied without any hesitation.

The two of them asking and answering each other were like needles against each other, their words filled with the smell of gunpowder.

The green clothed girl was not respectful to Mo Chuan just because he was the emperor. Her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant. Although her voice was gentle, she did not take half a step back.

All the young girls were stupefied as they listened. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes and heard it with their own ears, they wouldn't have thought that there would be such a bold girl in this world. She actually dared to argue with the emperor. If this girl wasn't a lunatic, then she was a fool!

Empress Dowager Zhou and Su Jin looked at each other, seeing the praise in each other's eyes.

"Your Majesty, are you really going to order her, a girl, to go and manage the river?" Empress Dowager Zhou was already completely convinced by the green clothed girl. Just based on her boldness, not easily lowering her head in front of the emperor and knowing how to argue, she would support this girl to the end.

She was afraid that the Emperor would issue a decree in a fit of anger. Wouldn't that be harming the young lady?

Mo Chuan gave a snort and said, "Does mother think your son is someone who doesn't know what is important? She's just a little girl, how could she know how to control the river! "

His expression and tone were filled with contempt.
