Chapter Forty-Six: Evening Shine Among the Flowers

The matter of steaming crucian carp is a truth that all the ministers in the court understand. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info so it is rare for Du Shangshu to have such a response at the moment, naturally his face is ruddy, and he is very happy at a glance.

He also thought that the affairs at the entrance of the criminal department were very difficult, Gu Qingbai stopped there, and said that he did not participate in this year's imperial examination, and the people's focus immediately changed.

At first, some people didn't understand why, but then looking at his figure of walking away, some scholars stroked their palms and sighed, jade does not say that he is like a peach and plum, Gu Gongzi's talent, but he is far above the top three, and the gold list is really not a glory for him.

He was very arrogant.

And his own strength has made it a matter of course for him to be above 10,000 people, and he deserves it, who can say that it is not half a sentence?

The public resentment that lasted for a few days after the release of the list has subsided for the time being, but Gu Qingbai's stop has caused another round of boiling frenzy. Scholars in the world should have their own integrity and ethics, the imperial examination is just a shortcut to enter the official ranks, as long as they have the people in mind and help the world, even if their reputation is damaged, what can they do?

When these scholars used Gu Qingbai to advertise themselves, the direction of public opinion also changed unconsciously, three days after the release of the list in previous years, this champion Lang and Bangyan Tanhua were going to parade the streets together, the bustle of the streets and alleys was naturally very lively, but this year, it was much quieter than in previous years.

These scholars forgot that Gu Qingbai was standing on the Jinluan Palace, and the emperor was not a blind man.

You Gu Qingbai doesn't participate in the imperial examination, and now you are still teaching a group of scholars to be inaccessible, above this center, isn't there an outflow of talents?

In the face of the emperor's obviously unhappy tone, Gu Qingbai didn't play those crooks, and said directly, this imperial examination was originally a way to become an official and make decisions for the people, he had already stood under the Son of Heaven, and what to do in vain, it was better to follow Old Man Gu to fish at home.

What he said was indeed very reasonable, like a rose after the wind and rain, with crystal dewdrops, exuding an unplayable light under the morning light. However, although the flower bones are beautiful, they also have thorns.

Right now, this thorn is deeply rooted in the heart of Xu Shaozhen, the champion of today's department.

His head armor is really a bit of a wreck. The greater Gu Qingbai's fame, the lower the gold content of the champion Lang appears, and now even the emperor openly praises him above the court, isn't this a slap in the face?

Therefore, in the past few days, he has not been in a very good mood.

In the Xu Mansion, the master and his subordinates are all happy for the second son to reach the top of the list, but only Xu Fu and the second son are unhappy, which is also very strange.

Others naturally didn't understand the thoughts of his father and son, so they should still celebrate, and the flowing water feast was set up in the mansion for ten days.

Although Xu Shaozhen doesn't like it, he still has to socialize at home every day.

Mo Cang was in the backyard, naturally she didn't take a step forward, she was already in front of a shrinking turtle because she misunderstood Gu Qingbai, and now there was a lot of noise in front of her, and she was even more reluctant to step out of the courtyard.

Even Mo Yi said that she was taking her out to eat snacks, but she shouldn't, just stared at a pair of big wet eyes, and begged Mo Yi to go to the dim sum shop in the east of the city to bring her an osmanthus cake or something when she came back.

Xu Shaozhen hasn't seen Mocang for nearly half a month.

He was worried about it tightly, but she was like a person who had nothing to do, and this feeling of being out of his control was very bad.

It was like a sharp cat's paws scratching at the softest ground in his heart, and he could only watch, unable to break free from the heavy chains that bound his hands to kill the damn cat.

In the evening, the small courtyard is full of warm sunset light under the gilt of the setting sun.

Not far away, the glow was like ink, smearing the sky one by one, just like the sleeping face of a little girl in the flowers, faint, but extremely hot.

Xu Shaozhen was a little irritable, but the moment he saw her, he was quiet. I didn't have any thoughts in my head, but I unconsciously lightened my pace.

The vines are like a waterfall, the bright green is full of spread a whole corridor, surrounded by clusters of flowers, she is sleeping on the rattan chair, and she also holds half a piece of osmanthus cake in her hand.

Xu is going to be raised in the past few days, her fair cheeks, which were originally meatless, are also a little rounder, looking really clear and cute, and her long eyelashes seem to be scattered with gold in the afterglow, which makes people can't take their eyes off.

Snort, there is still scum at the corner of the mouth. Is this falling asleep eating a snack?

Xu Shaozhen brought a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth that he didn't even notice, and reached out and gently stroked the corner of her mouth.

Mo Cang was sleeping in a daze, muttering something inarticulately, Xu Shaozhen suddenly had the idea of teasing her, and lightened his fingers, like feathers, touching her smooth face for a while.

Mo Cang finally opened his eyes leisurely, and when he saw his handsome face enlarged in front of his eyes, his face turned red when he rubbed it, which was comparable to the sunset on the horizon.

"Why are you here......"

When she suddenly saw Xu Shaozhen, she was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say. subconsciously asked, and felt that he was too infatuated with what he said, just like those concubines who almost turned into Wangfu stones......

This is Xu Mansion, isn't he going wherever he wants?

Afraid that he would tease him again, Mo Cang hurriedly said: "Ah, that, I heard Senior Brother Yi say, you are the top student in high school, congratulations." ”

Xu Shaozhen was half-squatting beside the rattan chair, but after hearing this, he slowly straightened up, looked at her condescendingly, and said with a smile: "Well, it is indeed a happy event, Cang'er, what are you going to give me as a gift?" ”

Mo Cang was stunned for a moment, this person, why did she still ask for a gift, she was poor and white, and now she still owes him a lot of debt, what can she give?

"It seems that you are unprepared, then I can take it myself."

"Huh?" Mo Cang's eyes widened in surprise, what else could he see?

In the evening among the flowers, the son fell into the city, with a deep smile in the corner of his eyes, he slowly bent down and gently imprinted his lips on hers.

Because she had been outside for a long time, her delicate lips were cool, while he was warm, two completely different temperatures touched together, and both of them shivered.

"Okay, Wang Shangshu and they are coming in the evening, and I have to go out to entertain guests, see you tomorrow." Eat obediently, if you are tired, let your senior brother take you out to play, I let you move in, not to detain you. ”

He smiled, took the half of the snack from her hand, and naturally ate it, saying that it was a cushion for the stomach, and carefully told her a few words, and then left the small courtyard.

Mo Cangmu sent him out the door, still ashamed of the kiss he had just given him. (To be continued.) )
