Love Conspiracy: The Pretentious Prince Is a Trickster

They wrote English names into a Chinese novel, but they didn't bother to check their work. I'd rather read Chinese names.
Compared to him, the Fuyuan Group was not even worth a bone fragment.

Better brush up on your flute playing skills.
Lord Chen scowled at him. "We don't all have Imperial Concubine Yue's blessed peach blossom luck (2)."

That image warms me.
"She's showing off," Lord Chen muttered with a dramatic eye roll. His 'girl friend' of choice, the 'sister' he bitched about other people to, had changed from Imperial Concubine Hui to Imperial Concubine Yue and Yan Zheyun was suddenly struck by the horrific image of the both of them decked out in Gucci and Chanel having afternoon tea in a five-star hotel.

The inner palace was all about hierarchy at the end of the day. Those who once stood at the very top had to make way for their ambitious counterparts once their time to shine ended. For the first couple of days after this rearrangement, he crept around Yan Zheyun on tiptoes, gaze narrow and guarded like he was expecting Yan Zheyun to make use of his new status to get his own back or at least belittle him. Once he realised this wasn't going to happen—of course not, Yan Zheyun had better things to do with his time—he seemed to mellow out a bit, his bitchy attitude softening into the occasional prickly barb that reminded Yan Zheyun of hedgehogs; spiky on the outside with a squishy underbelly.

That'll teach him...
He didn't know how that conversation had gone but last he heard, the dowager had slammed the doors of her palace shut and was refusing visitors in order to properly dedicate her time to interpreting the scriptures. No doubt she was doing it on purpose, a show of passive aggression, where she displayed her disapproval of the emperor's actions without outright engaging him in a fight.

His sudden promotion to the rank of Imperial Concubine had caught everyone unawares, including himself. Not only had he been bestowed the title of Lord of Handsome Fairness rather recently, but he was also now skipping ranks too, going right past Lord of Bright Deportment to a position that would enable him to be the head of a palace. Rumour had it that the empress dowager had even put aside the cold war that she was waging against her son to confront him about the inappropriateness of allowing Yan Zheyun to climb the hierarchy as quickly as he was doing. There were strict rules regarding these things, apparently.

Assuming any of these women want to be officials, they'd have to play catch up with the men in terms of studying.
"That would be a waste of a precious resource," was his arch reply. Liu Yao might be an excellent manipulator but he needed a 101 on HR. "Let me sort out my thoughts before giving you a definitive plan. But if all works out well, I think Your Majesty is going to have no lack of support in court from a very unique faction."

I want to see Hua and the Fake Consort living together all cute.
Since Yan Zheyun had been the one to bring Hua Zhixuan to Liu Yao's attention, he was privy to what Liu Yao intended to do. The emperor's decision to bring his concubines along to the banquet today was not made on a mere whim. Instead, it was the perfect opportunity to scope the reactions and tolerance levels of these young future officials, of whom many represented the ideologies of their respective families. They would be Hua Zhixuan's colleagues, should Liu Yao's controversial policy push through; any of his concubines who had gone through the formal years of education should be allowed to sit for the imperial examinations too. Should they pass, they should be permitted to leave the inner palace immediately to serve the throne in the capacity of an official, with a special provision that they could start a household of their own if their family refused to accept them back.

What are you smug about? You couldn't even keep it in your pants in a carriage for two minutes.. and gave in for a "flute performance" so easily...
…and clearly, Liu Yao had guessed at the nature of the thoughts that had flooded into Yan Zheyun's mind without warning because there was something unbearably smug about his raised eyebrow.

"I'm imagining you on fire" smile.
Hua Zhixuan kept his smile happy. It was another thing he'd learnt from observing Brother Yan.

So perceptive.. yet stupid.
Great General Pan's son's eyes and ears must have been sharper than the rest of the scholars he was sitting with because he soon singled out Hua Zhixuan, who remained frozen on the spot like a startled small animal. A flash of revulsion washed over his expression and Hua Zhixuan knew that he had been recognised as the emperor's concubine.

Now you've jinxed it.
And if Pan Liqi chose to stray into his path regardless, then he only had himself to blame for Yan Zheyun's retaliation.

Coward. You totally love being teased.
The ensuing burn of embarrassment was enough to derail Yan Zheyun from his troubles temporarily. Liu Yao's night vision was apparently 20/20 because he had no problems poking fun at the faint dusting of pink across Yan Zheyun's cheekbones. Before Liu Yao could make matters excruciating—Yan Zheyun suspected that not that deep down inside, the man had a bit of a sadistic streak in him but he didn't want to think too closely about whether he had an answering humiliation kink, no don't go there—he decided to change the subject swiftly.

General Pan... you're not doing yourself any favors with this tough love.
They had never spoken about Liu Suzhi before. But he had a feeling it was going to be an open secret between them from now on.

Kid.. you are outmatched in the Swagger Department. Daddy's rank is Legendary.
It was also an expressive face. And right now, the casual disregard it was wearing grated on his nerves. With no small amount of effort, he steeled himself, forcibly tearing his eyes away before saying, "Gong Gong would do well to remember not to overstep his rank."
