Chapter 31: Stinginess
"What?"
Emperor Jiawen thought that he had misheard, and subconsciously asked again.
"You want to enter Tianlu Academy?"
Chu Liuyue nodded.
"Exactly. Tianlu Academy's enrollment time is in January every year, so I would like to ask Your Majesty to give me a chance to take the exam. β
Emperor Jiawen looked at her with complicated eyes.
This Chu Liuyue is really strange.
Let's call her stupid, she is very calm from beginning to end, and she has perfectly resolved the troubles she has faced several times.
said that she was smart, but she took the initiative to give up the position of the crown princess, and even said that she wanted to enter Tianlu Academy.
She wouldn't not know that Tianlu Academy was the top academy in the entire Yaochen Kingdom, and if she wanted to enter it, she had to be a top genius.
And she is even crippled in her original vein, how can she do it?
"It's not that hard. But... The assessment of Tianlu Academy is very difficult, are you sure you want to go? You know, those old men will not put water on my face. β
Chu Liuyue smiled lightly.
Liu Yue naturally knows this. What Liu Yue wants is just a chance to take the exam. β
Emperor Jiawen stared at her, making sure she wasn't joking, and finally sighed.
"In that case, your wish has been granted. It's just that... Whether you can get in or not depends on yourself. β
Chu Liuyue curtsied.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. β
Emperor Jiawen waved his hand:
"Okay, you should be very tired today, so let's go home and rest first. Chu Ning, you can accompany her, take care of it. β
The most important thing has been resolved, and Chu Liuyue originally didn't plan to stay here, so he left with Chu Ning.
It wasn't until the figures of the two disappeared in the night outside the main hall that the cold atmosphere in the main hall gradually recovered.
But with so much going on tonight, everyone didn't dare to make any more noise.
A good birthday feast became depressing and boring.
Rong Jin closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows.
Finally settled the marriage contract with Chu Liuyue, it stands to reason that it should be easy, but his heart is still like a stone pressed, dull.
Originally, everything was well calculated, but somehow, it ended up like this.
After today, the people in the imperial capital don't know what to say about him.
These are nothing, and the most important thing is that my father is afraid that he is also dissatisfied with him...
And Chu Xianmin's mood at this time was even worse than Rong Jin's.
She sat in her place, but she felt her body tingle, her mind went blank, and her face kept changing.
Chu Liuyue's words today almost completely ruined her reputation!
This kind of thing, who cares if it's true or not?
Unexpectedly, not only did he not solve Chu Liuyue today, but he also provoked himself into a commotion!
More and more colorful eyes fell on her around, like a man's back, just looking for a crack in the ground to get into!
"Ahemβ"
Rong Xiu coughed again.
Emperor Jiawen frowned.
"Why is the cough getting worse?"
Rong Xiu waved his hand:
"Son-ahem-"
Before he finished speaking, he began to cough again, and his lips became even paler.
Emperor Jiawen could not refuse:
"I'll go back and raise it now. I finally got better in the Bright Moon Heavenly Mountain, and I only came back for a month, so what will I do in the future? If you get seriously ill again, I will take the people in your house to blame!"
Rong Xiu smiled helplessly, and then got up.
Yan Qing behind him immediately put on a big hat for him.
The retainers retreated first. β
After speaking, he looked at Rong Jin again.
"Brother Huang, the birthday gift has been sent to the house, and I can't accompany it today, and my brother will make amends another day. β
Rong Jin smiled reluctantly:
"The seventh brother is polite. Your body matters. β
Only then did Rong Xiu turn around and leave.
After he left, Rong Jiu also said that there were still military affairs to deal with, so he left directly.
The atmosphere that was not very harmonious was even more awkward and lonely because of the departure of one or two.
Before this, who would have thought that the prince, who has always been beautiful, would hold a birthday banquet like this?
...
Rong Xiu walked out of the palace gate and saw two people standing next to the carriage leaving the palace.
It was Chu Ning and Chu Liuyue.
He raised an eyebrow slightly, and walked over.
"Lord Chu, Miss Chu, why are you here?"
Chu Ning clasped his hands into fists and bowed seriously.
"Thank you, Your Highness for your help. Your kindness, my little girl and I will definitely remember it!"
Rong Xiu's eyes flashed slightly:
"Lord Chu is polite, this king didn't help much today..."
Chu Ning shook his head again and again.
"In addition to your help to solve the siege today, there is also the last time you saved the life of the little girl. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know our father and daughterβif there is any future send, please do not hesitate to command!"
Saved her life last time?
Rong Xiu glanced at Chu Liuyue, and was staring at him with a warning from the girl, her dark eyes bright and bright.
The corners of his lips curled, and even the corners of his eyes were dyed with a smile.
"Lord Chu doesn't have to be like this. That's a lot of effort, not a lot of work. Probably, she and this king are more compatible. β
Chu Liuyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Earlier, she lied to Chu Ning and said that Rong Xiu had saved her, but who knew that he had actually taken it to heart, and today it happened that Rong Xiu was also there, so he made up his mind to wait here, saying that he would thank him in person.
No matter how much she tried to persuade her, she had to wait here with her.
Fortunately, he didn't wait long, and this guy actually took it very cooperatively.
"It's getting late, so why don't you send you back with this king. β
Chu Liuyue was about to refuse when she heard it:
"No!"
Who knows what he had in mind?
There will be no pie in the sky, and the more he helps her like this, the more vigilant she becomes.
On the surface, this man is as gentle as jade, humble and gentlemanly.
But Chu Liuyue didn't think so.
She couldn't see through his eyes, she couldn't understand his mind, and she intuitively felt that this was a very dangerous man!
The farther away such a person is, the better!
Chu Ning glanced at her disapprovingly:
"Don't be rude to His Royal Highness. β
Chu Liuyue wrinkled her nose.
Chu Ning actually felt that this was inappropriate, but before he could speak, Rong Xiu continued:
"Anyway, this king is also on the way back, just to take you for a ride. Miss Chu should also be tired today. β
Chu Ning's refusal was blocked in his throat.
Yue'er had a life-and-death fight with the golden python, and he was really worried about whether she was hurt...
After hesitating for a moment, he finally said:
"Then it's troublesome to leave His Royal Highness. β
"Please. β
...
The carriage away from the palace is indeed very spacious and comfortable, and it is more than enough for three people to sit in it.
Chu Liuyue sat beside Chu Ning and faced Rong Xiu.
Chu Liuyue was vigilant at first, but after Rong Xiu got into the car, he closed his eyes and seemed to be resting.
He sat quietly, closing his deep eyes that seemed to be seductive, and his jade-carved face was quiet and gentle under the warm light.
Chu Liuyue glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze.
was speechless all the way, and just like that, he arrived at the door of the Chu family.
Chu Ning jumped out of the car first, and Chu Liuyue was about to leave, but was suddenly grabbed by a hand.
The tentacles are slightly cool, and a subtle touch seems to spread along the skin to the bottom of the heart.
Chu Liuyue was about to make a move, when an extremely light low and gentle voice came into his ears.
"Something remember to return to me. β
Chu Liuyue was stunned for a moment, and when she looked back, Rong Xiu had already let go of her hand and closed her eyes again, as if nothing had happened.
She pursed her lips.
"It's stingy. β
