The eldest princess competed for the main exam of this year in the court, but she didn't want Lu Tianyang's test paper to be among the top ten.

According to the imperial examination, the main examination accepts the ten test papers selected, and Emperor Shenwu points the champion, the list eye, and the flower in the test paper presented to him.

In fact, even if Lu Tianyang was among the top ten, Emperor Shenwu might not necessarily name him as the champion, but the eldest princess didn't want to give Lu Tianyang a little chance, and she was also worried that King Qi would mess around and destroy the overall situation.

King Qi suddenly threw out a unified font to eliminate the possibility of the eldest princess using the main exam to block Lu Tianyang High School from the root.

"The minister reconsiders His Royal Highness the King of Qi."

When the ministers of the family of King Qi and the eldest princess quarreled, Jiang Shoufu did not say a word, and after the King of Qi proposed to build a house, Jiang Shoufu came out of the courtiers, bowed down and said: "The minister thinks that the construction of the King of Qi is extremely feasible, and the preferences of the main examination in previous years will always affect the results of the imperial examination to a greater or lesser extent. ”

"The unified font allows the juzi to concentrate on the exam without having to go through the trouble of asking about the preferences of the examiner."

"In addition, it can also reduce the burden on the examiners who mark the papers, and save the time of the candidates to answer the questions, after all, it is more wasteful to write a good hand than a unified font."

The eldest princess secretly wondered if Jiang Shoufu and King Qi would collude?

"Quasi-play." Emperor Shenwu nodded in agreement, and was really troubled by the senseless quarrels in the court, "After a while, the imperial sister will stay." ”

In any case, he had to appease the eldest princess a few words.

King Qi retreated satisfied, and others discussed the government again, he completely regarded himself as not a zài, and without saying a word, he mentioned the barbarian prince, and the king of Qi also kept his mouth shut, without the slightest majesty at the state banquet, strong.

Jiang Shoufu represents the cabinet, although there is infighting between the cabinet ministers, but most of the time, the cabinet ministers are still united, Jiang Shoufu will not be caught by others, he does not talk much in the court, every word.

The ministers who support the eldest princess often can't argue with him, but sometimes the eldest princess will personally contend with Jiang Shoufu, plus Emperor Shenwu is slightly biased towards the eldest princess, so over the years, the court has been very stable, and the two sides are only for the public, not for personal interests.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, the eldest princess signaled to Emperor Shenwu that she would have something to do with herself, and she would go to the imperial study again in a while.

Emperor Shenwu shook his head silently, feeling a little helpless against the stubborn and stubborn imperial sister,

"Mo Guanjie."

"Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

Mo Guanjie, who was talking to King Qi, turned his head with a solemn expression, and his smiling face was a lot, which was equivalent to estrangement.

The eldest princess could feel that Mo Guanjie's rejection of herself was getting heavier and heavier, and this realization made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Can you listen to Princess Ben?"

"In state affairs, ministers are willing to listen to them, but in family affairs, you shouldn't ask."

“…… I like Ah Jiu very much. The eldest princess forcibly found a reason, Lu Tianyang's talent level, she knew something, when she couldn't make a fuss in the imperial examination, she could only find Mo Guanjie again, "The specific situation, I can't tell you in detail now, if you nod and agree to this marriage, you will definitely regret it in the future." ”

Mo Guanjie grabbed King Qi who was irritable and anxious to reply beside him, "Your Highness is too worried, the minister's eyes rarely look at the wrong person, Tianyang has been by the minister's side for many years, what kind of person he is, what kind of character he has, the minister knows better than His Highness who has always looked at him unpleasantly." ”

"He's ......"

"Your Highness, you have never believed that your ministers have the ability to solve difficulties, nor have you ever believed that you keep saying that you appreciate your favorite Ah Jiu. In your eyes, our father and daughter...... can only be reduced to the protection of others, or lack the heart and eyes to the point of being calculated and unconscious. ”

The corners of King Qi's mouth rose, and Lao Mo's mouth was very hard, which was enough for his aunt to be uncomfortable.

Lu Tianyang couldn't enter the palace to go to court, so he asked King Qi to take care of Mo Guanjie nearby, the Yanguo Mansion was too noisy, there were too many accidents, and Mo Guanjie really saw the hell without a little suspicion.

"Auntie, can you take a step to speak?"

King Qi raised his hand and made a gesture of please, and the eldest princess, who was sad for Mo Guanjie's indifference, moved half a step to the side, and only two people could hear the voice in front of King Qi Mountain: "You care too much about Ah Jiu, what do you want to do?" Since you pushed the boat down the river to protect Lao Mo, why did you treat Lao Mo several times. ”

"Auntie, others are not stupid. What do you think of Yan Guogong? What about Mo Guanjie? If you take the initiative a few more times, I don't think it will be easy to hide it from others. Usually, don't say that the courtiers dare not listen to your orders, just say a few more words...... Can you spare him? ”

"......" The eldest princess couldn't say a word.

"Recently, there have been frequent situations in the Yan Guoguo Mansion, so you don't care about it at all? You made a choice at the beginning, and you can't regret it at this time, otherwise you will not only harm innocent people, but also make Lao Mo embarrassed and unable to gain a foothold in the court. ”

King Qi sighed, "He is very dignified, and his temper is also very stubborn. With you and your uncle...... It's quite like, Lao Mo has a conscience and is kind, and he won't tolerate you being good for him. While he's just suspicious, you'd better pay less attention to him. ”

"In addition, you are a human being, with your own thoughts and emotions, not a pawn that you can do whatever you want. The little nephew advises you to be careful about being hurt by the chess pieces that you think can be manipulated at will. ”

After King Qi gave up, he returned to Mo Guanjie's side and said in a loud voice: "This king will send you home." ”

Mo Guanjie returned to Beijing to report on his work, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, he did not have the yamen of the imperial capital to go, except for gathering with colleagues and former classmates, most of them went back to their own mansions.

"I don't dare to drink with King Qi anymore, I can't drink you."

"Haha, of course you can't drink me, Lao Mo, tell you the truth, I have no one in ten thousand drinks, and I don't accept anyone from the same people's drinking, I only admire my son Tianyang, this kid ...... Thousands of cups are not drunk, and the more you drink, the more energetic you are. ”

"A thousand cups are not drunk?"

"yes." King Qi nodded, "He alone can drink two of me, well, three." ”

Mo Guanjie frowned, "I remember that he was drunk and said a lot of drunken things. ”

"Impossible, Tianyang is absolutely ......" King Qi patted his front head, how could he forget that Tianyang pretended to be drunk and Mo Guanjie sympathized with this?

It's hard work to talk to someone with good memories.

King Qi sighed for a long time and whispered: "Tianyang drinks when he has something on his mind, he is easy to get drunk, haha, he is very drunk, and he says everything in his heart." Don't look at his usual cold and arrogant feeling, when he is drunk, he is quite pitiful, he has suffered much more than ordinary people. ”

Mo Guanjie nodded with a smile, "It's really hard for you, King Qi." ”

This excuse was found.

"Yiqiē for the sake of his son." King Qi smiled cheekily and said: "Old Mo, whether you are drunk or sober, you don't have to pick Tianyang, you have to work hard to marry Ah Jiu, just rush him with this heart, and you have to fulfill them." “

"Didn't you say that you would be hired after you were hired?"

Mo Guanjie originally wanted to stay with Ah Jiu for another two years, but it was precisely because he was afraid that Lu Tianyang was nine years older than Ah Jiu, so he decided to let Ah Jiu out of the cabinet after the marriage.

Let Lu Tianyang wait any longer, Mo Guanjie is afraid that something will happen to him.

King Qi and Mo Guanjie hooked their shoulders and walked out, their excitement overflowing.

In addition to being helpless and uncomfortable, the eldest princess was helpless about this marriage, and as for what King Qi had just said, she regarded it as nonsense and never took it to heart.

*******

Yan Guogong was buried for his mother-in-law, and most of the famous nobles in the imperial capital came to mourn, among which naturally she had to carry the princess Mo Xinlan.

Princess Huai's recent life has not been easy, the stepsons are not easy to woo, she got King Huai's permission to preside over the feed, but the stewardship of the palace is not easy to handle, Mo Xinlan does not dare to use too radical means, she can only take it step by step.

Mo Xinlan was soon invited into the house, and a strong smell of decoction came to her face, Mo Xinqing's face was pale, faintly sickly, and her body collapsed.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and I seem to be very sick."

Mo Xinlan sympathized with Mo Xinqing, but she did not relax her vigilance, "Tired of handling the funeral?" ”

"The second sister doesn't have to worry about **, it will be much better to recuperate for two days."

Mo Xinqing leaned on the cushion, tugged at Mo Xinlan's sleeve weakly, and begged: "Second sister, can you sit with me for a while, there is no one around me." ”

The original vigilance disappeared a lot because of Mo Xinqing's weakness.

Mo Xinqing's wet and weak eyes made Mo Xinlan's refusal speechless, and Mo Xinqing needed to save herself at this time.

"The second sister knows that the third sister and her cousin have become concubines." Mo Xinqing's painful and lost gaze was particularly distressing, "Originally, I didn't want to tell anyone about these things, and no one listened to me." ”

"Madame, it's time for you to take your medicine." Cui'er stepped forward with the boiled decoction, touched the corners of her eyes, and said happily: "The princess can still say a few words to the master, the master is bitter, saying that he is tired, isn't he all angry?" The prince ......"

"That's enough."

Mo Xinqing picked up the decoction, "You go out first." ”

Cui'er hummed unwillingly, and signaled to Mo Xinlan with expectations to help the master.

Mo Xinlan said: "Ninth sister has been here? ”

"How did she come back? Second sister, ninth sister, how can I look down on me? Mo Xinqing smiled bitterly, "I am a daughter who is not liked by my father and looks forward to it." The ninth sister, who is loved by her father in every way, even chooses a better marriage than us, although Senior Brother Lu's title is a little lower, but everyone can see that he will be reused in the future. ”

"I can't figure out that the King of Qi will wholeheartedly support Senior Brother Lu, His Majesty is the most favored by the King of Qi, a little more spoiled than the Prince, I heard that the King of Qi is sitting on the ...... of two states"

"Who did you hear?" Mo Xinlan said mockingly: "Compared with the people who sit in the world, what are the two states? Since ancient times, no vassal king has succeeded. ”

Mo Xinqing thought that Mo Xinlan really dared to say.

Mo Xinlan was amused by Mo Xinqing's stupid appearance, which had the taste of a prophet and sage, "Don't look at King Qi now, no one is afraid of showing off his martial arts, even the emperor values him a lot, in fact...... He's just a paper tiger. ”

"The second sister is so powerful, she can see it so far-reaching, I can't do it, I can't see through it, I just think that King Qi and Senior Brother Lu are very rich, and I envy the ninth sister in my heart."

"Hey, the ninth sister doesn't listen to persuasion, when she cries in the future, she thinks that she is smart and capable can change King Qi's predicament?"

Mo Xinlan became more and more confident, and said confidently: "I just beg her not to implicate her father in the future, if my father is implicated by her, can we watch my father get punished?" ”

"As soon as the second sister said it, it was really troublesome." Mo Xinqing was sad, "It's good that we can help, just in case...... Outsiders say that the eldest princess values me, but in fact, it is all spread by others, the eldest princess treats me me, Yan Guogong looks at the rich, and has no rights in itself, I am worried that I will not be able to help the ninth sister. ”

"You just think too much, the ninth sister is ruthless and unjust to us, why should we worry about her? It's time to say it, I sued her, she refused to listen and insisted on choosing Lu Tianyang, I said too much as if she was jealous of the ninth sister. ”

Mo Xinlan saw that Mo Xinqing wanted to speak and stopped, and said bluntly: "If you have anything to say, don't swallow it." ”

"Second Sister ......"

"If you don't say anything more, I'll go out."

"Don't."

Mo Xinqing grabbed Mo Xinlan and bit her lip in embarrassment, "...... The eldest princess has blocked the marriage several times, second sister, do you think it is for the prince of Anguo? ”

Mo Xinlan suppressed a trace of jealousy, nodded and said, "He does like the ninth sister, but it's a pity that the ninth sister doesn't choose him." ”

"It's a pity, in addition to being not as handsome as Lu Tianyang, the prince of Anguo is not as handsome as Lu Tianyang, which is a little worse, that is, now the prince of Anguo is also the preferred son-in-law of the ladies of the imperial capital, if the ninth sister nods, not to mention that wealth can be expected, it will not cause trouble to the family and father in the future."

Mo Xinlan agreed with what Mo Xinqing said, "Who said it wasn't." ”

"It's a shame...... Even if the ninth sister regrets it, people will find out that she is with Mu Shizi, but I am afraid that she will not be able to be Mrs. Shizi, after King Qi's toss, the eldest princess is valuing her, Mu Shizi loves her again, and the ninth sister of the main wife doesn't want to count on it. ”

"Hmm."

"However, it's better to say that it's better to be the concubine of the Mu family, or to be the wife of a rebel who is hated by the eldest princess."

"Hmm." Mo Xinlan's eyes changed slightly, "The Mo family raised us, we should sacrifice for the prosperity of the family." I look at the ninth sister...... It's better to be with Mu Shizi. ”

Mo Xinqing sighed: "It's a pity that the ninth sister is not a rational second sister, she is too emotional, I really hope that someone can make another big mistake to help the ninth sister, cough cough...... Ahem...... King Qi ...... Too arrogant, who is in his eyes? I don't respect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

Cui'er heard the coughing code outside the door again, and hurriedly said, "The imperial doctor has instructed you to rest more." ”

"Eighth sister, let's recuperate, I'll go to the front for a walk."

"Second sister, I still have something to say to you."

"It's the same when you're well."

Mo Xinlan smiled and covered Mo Xinqing with a cloak, "You don't have to worry about the future, I have me in my pocket, I am my father's eldest daughter, I should take care of my younger siblings and care about the prosperity of the family, if you have any difficulties, just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help you." ”

"Thank you, second sister."

Mo Xinqing was so moved that she reluctantly sent Mo Xinlan away.

"Master."

"Fools are useful, too."

Mo Xinqing hooked the corners of her mouth, and when her hand touched her lower abdomen, her smugness dissipated, and she closed her eyes in pain, "It's not suitable now, and ...... later." I'll take care of you, wait. ”

******

Mo Xinlan left the Yanguo Mansion soon after absent-mindedly condolence, thinking about Fang Cai's affairs along the way, King Qi really didn't give face to King Huai and the crown prince, and it was good to teach him a lesson.

"I'm for the sake of the ninth sister, although I was wronged a little bit by being a concubine, it's better than her dying in the future. Mu Shizi loves her very much, and in front of the princess, she can't stand too much grievance. ”

Mo Xinlan persuaded herself and began to arrange manpower, and she thought of a person who hated Lu Tianyang - Lu Lingfeng, the son-in-law of His Royal Highness the Prince, the prince of Chengguo. R1152
