The Sickly Beauty Substitute Called It Quits - Chapter 78
[Chapter 76]
“Where is your majesty not so powerful?” Shen Yu’s eyes rolled, “Your majesty is naturally powerful everywhere.”
“Really?” Shang Junlin put one hand around Shen Yu’s waist, the other held his hand, and played with it in the palm of his hand, “Ayu Do you want to try it?”
“What to try…” As soon as he asked, Shen Yu closed his mouth abruptly and reacted, “Does your Majesty feel that you are different from before?”
“What is the difference?” Shen Yu’s words, I seriously thought about it, but I didn’t find anything wrong.
“Your Majesty didn’t like to say things like this before.” Shen Yu narrowed his eyes.
“I didn’t know what to say before?” Shang Junlin tightened his arms around Shen Yu’s waist, and leaned over to rub Shen Yu’s cheek, “Does Ayu like it?”
A light layer appeared on Shen Yu’s face.
Light pink, the man’s body temperature is just like his own, giving Shen Yu a fiery feeling, the face that is in close contact clearly conveys the warmth of another person, Shen Yu pursed his lips.
“Do your Majesty’s courtiers know that His Majesty still has such a side?”
“I want them to know what to do? Ayu’s knowledge is enough.” Shang Junlin turned his head slightly and left a kiss on Shen Yu’s face.
The fingers hanging on his side curled up, Shen Yu did not avoid it, letting the kiss turn downward.
After hugging Shen Yu for a while, Shang Junlin extinguished all the anger that had risen in the morning, and sat down with Shen Yu: “Ayu has been waiting for me for so long, but you are hungry?
” It was only when Shen Yu
realized that he was really hungry, he nodded and said, “A little.”
“Meng Chang, Chuanshan.”
Eunuch Meng went out in response, and Mu Xi poured tea for the two masters and stepped aside.
Holding the teacup , Shen Yu lightly rubbed the wall of the cup, “How does Your Majesty plan to deal with that Mr. Zhao?”
“With the aristocratic family standing behind me, do you really think I dare not touch him?” Shang Junlin held Shen Yu holding the teacup Hand, took a sip in this posture.
“…Your Majesty, that’s my cup.”
“Ayu refuses to give me a sip of tea? Or does Ayu dislike me?” Shang Junlin not only did not let go, but drank the water in the cup in one gulp. .
“Your Majesty can drink if you want, just a glass of water.”
“Don’t be angry, Ayu, I will pay you what I drink, how about it?” Shang Junlin took the empty cup from Shen Yu’s hand and held it up. Another full cup was fed to Shen Yu’s mouth.
“Ayu feeds me once, and I feed Ayu once.” There is a
gloomy attitude of not giving up.
Shen Yu couldn’t help but took a sip. He could see that Shang Junlin did it on purpose.
Fortunately, Shang Junlin knew not to tease too much. After feeding it once, it returned to normal: “The heart of the family is getting bigger and bigger.”
“Master Zhao is just a pathfinder stone that they introduced. If you can force Your Majesty to give in this time. , next time they can gain an inch and plan more benefits for the family, if not, if they can’t, just give it up, they won’t hurt their bones and touch the foundation.”
Shen Yu learned about the identity of Master Zhao in the apse .
, As officials, it is their duty to persuade the emperor, but this does not mean that they can control the emperor’s thoughts because of their own selfish desires.
“Ayu’s thoughts are not bad. The aristocratic family has been hovering in the court for a long time, and it is difficult to shake their foundation.” Shang Jun lowered his eyes and suppressed the killing intent in his eyes.
Since his accession to the throne, the aristocratic family has given him a lot of stumbling blocks, but because the late emperor was faint, most of the power in the court fell into the hands of these people. Unclearly related to the aristocratic family, it took Shang Junlin several years to cultivate a group of usable officials who were not involved in the aristocratic family.
Shen Yu covered Shang Junlin’s hand: “Your Majesty doesn’t need to endure for long, didn’t the result of the imperial examination this time clearly hit the family in the face?”
In the top three, none of them came from an aristocratic family. Don’t they boast that they have a rich background and are superior to others? Why can’t even Jiang Huaiqing, who came from a poor family, and Fang Jiayi, who is a woman, compare?
“A-Yu is right, no matter how deep their roots are in Dahuan, I will cut down the roots that absorb Dahuan’s blood!” Shang Junlin turned his hands and wrapped his gloomy hand into the palm of his hand, intertwining his five fingers and interlocking his ten fingers.
As long as these people didn’t act too much, he used to turn a blind eye to them. Now that he has Ayu, in order to give Ayu better protection, he will never allow Da Huan to have any problems!
Not long after, Eunuch Meng took the palace servants to put the dishes from the imperial kitchen one by one.
Shen Yu glanced at it, it was all his favorite dishes.
“Your Majesty, let’s have dinner first
.
”
Shen Yu was not used to being served and eaten. Shang Junlin had been eating with him for a long time, and he gradually lost the habit of letting people serve dishes. One emperor, one nobleman, two people with the most honorable status, they would not like to eat. like normal people.
Eunuch Meng is an old man by Shang Junlin’s side. He saw with his own eyes that since Shen Yu entered the palace, Shang Junlin has become more and more flamboyant, and he has an indescribable emotion in his heart.
He once imagined what it would be like if there were people in His Majesty’s harem, no matter what, it would not be better than now.
After the results of the palace exams are released, the news will be announced by someone from the imperial court. At this time of the year, the people of the capital pay the most attention to the top three.
The results this year have caused a lot of heated discussion.
Without him, a woman appeared in Gein’s list this time, and she appeared in second place.
Everywhere in restaurants and teahouses, people can hear people talking about this matter.
“Women are officials? Isn’t this a fantasy?”
“How can a woman be an official? It’s better to look after her husband and teach her children at home than to show her face outside.”
“You know, people have this ability, why can’t they serve the court like a man?”
“But have you noticed, this time ? No. 2
on the No. 1 list, none of those aristocratic family members who have a heart higher than the sky have caught it.”
“No, the one who bragged about the talent design every day a while ago only took the fourth place.”
“If I tell you, the aristocratic family Indeed, some eyes are higher than the top, and they think they can sit back and relax by guarding a large number of secrets, but they don’t know that they will be left behind by people behind closed doors.”
A young man in white who was sitting not far away heard these words, his face changed. It was extremely ugly, and the few people dressed as young masters who followed him quietly glanced at each other, and did not dare to speak in embarrassment.
They just saw that their friend’s grades were not satisfactory, and they pulled people out to relax. How could they expect to hear such a remark.
“Brother Yi…” “It’s a fact that I didn’t do well in the test, you don’t need to say more,” the young man in white took a sip of wine with an ugly face, “Have you
figured
out the identities of those people?”
Anyway, both of them are the direct sons of an aristocratic family, so why are Jiang Huaiqing and Fang Jiayi?
A person who came out of nowhere, dare to climb on his head?
!
“I found out that Fang Jiayi is the only daughter of Master Fang. That Jiang Huaiqing is just a discarded orphan with no background. Brother Jianming, do you need us to take action?” The boy in
white, that is, Yi Jianming, shook his head, his eyes gloomy: ” Don’t act rashly, don’t think that after the top three exams, the official career will be smooth sailing, the real difficulty is still to come, do you really think the officialdom is so messy?”
A person who does not have any power behind it, it is not easy to handle it?
“Brother Jianming, don’t worry. One of these two people entered the officialdom as a woman, and the other was inextricably linked to the fraud case some time ago. Whether they can enter the court successfully or not will be discussed.”
Yi Jianming He grabbed the speaker’s hand and said, “What do you mean by what you just said? What do you mean by being inextricably linked with the fraud case?”
“Oh, this matter, Brother Jian Ming, you were concentrating on preparing for the exam at the time, there may be some omissions in the news, that Jiang Huaiqing, it is said that he was approached by those people before the exam, but does he really do anything, who knows except himself?”
“Yes,” Yi Jianming smiled maliciously, “A little help behind the scenes is enough. No one, if there is nothing tricky in them, how can they get such good grades?”
“Ah,” Jiang Huaiqing, who was talking, sneezed suddenly, he touched his forehead, “Could it be because of the recent cooling down? It’s
cold?”
“It’s also possible that someone is talking about you.” He Chengyu slowly picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth.
“Brother Chengyu, don’t make fun of me. If someone really talks about it, Brother Chengyu should be the same as me.” Jiang Huaiqing looked distressed when he mentioned this.
Because there was a champion and a third flower, the threshold of Yingxinglou was almost broken during this period of time, and it was already very tired to deal with the people who came to congratulate, not to mention that there were waves of matchmakers who came to the door to say kisses.
It is also a tradition for Da Huan to catch a son-in-law under the list. He Chengyu and Jiang Huaiqing are handsome and clean, one is the champion and the other is the third flower, and they are not married. Countless families in the capital want to marry the two.
Compared with He Chengyu, Jiang Huaiqing’s family background is weaker, but a few who are thinking about getting married will care about this. If they want a good family background, the sons of noble families in the capital will grab a lot of them. Because of this, Jiang Huaiqing’s popularity Even faintly surpassed He Chengyu.
At most, more than 20 matchmakers approached him in one morning, and Jiang Huaiqing was so frightened that he closed the door and thanked him immediately, and no one refused to see him.
Seeing that he was really troubled, He Chengyu proposed to move out. Although the He family was not based in the capital, it was not difficult to get one or two houses.
Jiang Huaiqing thought about it, agreed, and decided to temporarily move out with He Chengyu. For some unknown reason, he wrote to Shen Yu about what happened during this time.
After reading the letter written by Jiang Huaiqing, Shen Yu imagined the scene at that time and couldn’t help laughing: “He was frightened by the enthusiasm of the people in the capital.”
“I didn’t expect that he would continue to write to you.” Shang Junlin He also read the letter with a smile in his voice.
“I didn’t expect it. I thought he would be frightened by our real identity and would not write any more letters in a while,” Shen Yu didn’t expect to receive the letter so soon, “the letter mentioned their new address. , Your Majesty is not going to leave the palace in two days, why don’t we go and have a look?” The
Ministry of Industry has achieved results, Shang Junlin intends to go and see, Fang Zi was proposed by Shen Yu, and naturally he will also be brought with him.
Shang Junlin thought for a while and agreed.
“He definitely didn’t think that we would go there.” Shen Yu blinked slyly.
Jiang Huaiqing, who was finally undisturbed because he moved to a new house, heaved a sigh of relief and rested for two days. At this moment, he didn’t know that he would usher in a big “surprise” soon.
