Chapter 476: Determined Career

(2nd Update)

"I miss you too."

It was very hot in the case hall, and Yu Shu's left hand, which was held by Xue Rui's sweaty hand, was hot, but a cool breeze seemed to blow into his heart, blowing away the upset on the road when he came.

She raised her eyes, looked at Xue Rui's handsome face, and her mind moved, allowing him to pull her left hand, and with the other hand, she pulled out the handkerchief around her waist, wrapped her fingers, and leaned over the table to wipe it on his forehead.

"It's so hot, you can sit still, if this were me, I would have left the stall a long time ago."

Xue Rui watched her movements, only grasped her slender hand tighter, inhaled gently, smelled the refreshing aroma of pancreas on the soft towel on her fingers, and waited motionlessly for her to wipe the sweat off his face, and then slowly let her go.

"I received this errand, how can I leave it alone. Don't stand, come and sit," Xue Rui took away his chair, wiped it and let Yu Shu sit, and then went to get the teapot, wanting to pour her a glass of water, but who knew that it was empty, and the water in it was drunk at some point.

"Wait, I'll go outside and ask someone to make tea."

"I'll go, you take a break," Yu Shu stopped him, couldn't help but take the teapot from his hand, looked him up and down, and smiled with a wink:

"If the eldest brother is hot, you might as well take off your official robe and cool off, there are no outsiders here, and I don't mind."

With that, he held the teapot and strode through a few lines of bookcase and walked out.

Xue Rui followed her away, only then did he look down at the embarrassment on his body, smiled dumbly, thought about it, then untied his official robe again, found the fan that was pressed under several case files, leaned on the edge of the table, and looked out of the door while shaking the fan, with a light smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

Not much. Yu Shu came back with a pot of herbal tea, and saw Xue Rui's single clothes, because of the sweat and lightness, the smooth skin lines under the fabric were faintly visible, and the chest was strong, so he couldn't help but glance at it a few more times, but he felt the heat blowing on his face, and poured tea with him as ignorant.

"I heard Zhao Miao say that the Holy Decree ordered the law to be repaired, that's why you're so busy?"

Xue Rui drank two glasses of water in a row. The voice was much lighter: "Not only Dali Temple, but also the six departments must stack the Wenzong and submit the discrepancies of the previous years to the Wenyuan Pavilion in order to revise the law." ”

"Wenyuan Pavilion?" Yu Shu doesn't know much about political affairs, and has the heart to know more about Xue Rui's officialdom environment. And they consulted him.

Xue Rui told her one prison, two Taiwans, three temples and six departments in the imperial court, one by one, I thought she was curious, but looking at the right color she listened to, she couldn't help but be a little strange, and asked her after speaking:

"Why do you suddenly want to know about the affairs of the Dao Dynasty?"

Yu Shu refilled the water in his cup, looking at his concerned look, he seemed to have made up his mind, and said seriously: "I have decided that I must join the company in the future." I don't know how to do this, I used to be too careless, and you will remind me more in the future. ”

Xue Rui's face was surprised, half a year ago, he encouraged Yu Shu to participate in the Dayan exam, and then mentioned the matter of women's entry in front of her from time to time. Every time she was prevaricating, with a nonchalant attitude, it didn't seem that she had much intention of becoming a female official in the court, but today was the first time she had shown it in front of him.

Know her temper. Xue Rui was moved by his intentions - long before the ancestor worship, he heard that Si Tianjian had a seven-rank female official position to be supplemented, and he inquired, and it was very likely that he would be promoted from the candidates for ancestor worship this time. Recently, he has been very busy, but he didn't continue to inquire about this matter after he came back, and now that he thinks about it, looking at Yu Shu's appearance, could it be that the seat was filled by someone else?

"Si Tianjian has a vacancy for the seventh grade, have you heard the discussion in the Taishi Academy recently?" Xue Rui asked thoughtfully, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Yu Shu was affected by something, so he made up his mind to join the company.

Hearing this, Yu Shu leaned on the table, padd his chin with one hand, looked up at him, and half of his mind was thinking, when did this person in front of him start to pay attention to her? It seems that there are few things around her that he doesn't know.

"This lack has been filled." Yu Shu's tone was flat, it sounded like it was none of her business, it was true, she heard Situ Qinglan mention this vacancy before, and she didn't covet it, but later she knew that Zhan Xueyuan had picked it up, and she was a little unhappy in her heart.

Xue Rui said in his heart, and asked again: "Who is it?" ”

"Do you remember the female student who lost the stone in Huazhen Garden, Si Tianjian issued a document a few days ago, and it was the young lady of the Zhan family in Jiangxi."

Xue Rui was surprised, "Why is her." ”

Even if it is not Yu Shu, there should be someone else in Taishi Shuyuan, that little girl surnamed Zhan, I remember that she is just a ninth-class Yi Shi, there is no outstanding person, the key is that she is the son of a famous family in Jiangxi, and with this, she should not be the target of Si Tianjian's promotion.

After thinking about it for a while, he frowned again and said: "The incident in Huazhenyuan, after I returned to Beijing with Lord Wang, I reported it to Si Tianjian, didn't Taishi Shuyuan pursue those two troublemakers later?" ”

"No one mentioned it, so it won't be over." Yu Shu shook his head, knowing that Xue Rui was rigorous and would not forget about Zhan Xueyuan and Cui Yun, so someone on Si Tianjian's side suppressed it.

Xue Rui thought more than Yu Shu, seeing that she was ignorant, he didn't want her to know anything, and after groaning, he still decided to tell her some internal affairs joints-

"It shouldn't be like this, Si Tianjian has always been xenophobic, among the ten officials, most of the people in charge are the twelve prefectures in the capital, and thirty percent are outside, and they can't hold high positions, especially not from the family outside Beijing, and the female officials are also promoted from the twelve mansion families first, and then tend to be a young man like you who has no background but is outstanding in person, then the Zhan family was elected, I think there is another article behind it."

Yu Shu was shocked when he heard this, a few expressions flashed on his face, and he said in a low voice:

"I see, I don't know what she can rely on to enter the Taishi Academy."

Afraid that she would be worried, Xue Rui said, "It's okay, I'll tell you when I ask." ”

Yu Shu shook his head, "Fan doesn't like this, let her go, the left and right are just a person who doesn't have a long brain, and it can't hinder me." ”

If Zhan Xueyuan can have half of Ji Xingxuan's scheming in the past, she will have to be careful, but unfortunately Zhan Xueyuan doesn't, why should she be suspicious and tired.

The two chatted for a while, and when it was almost noon, Xue Rui's little servant Baode brought tea and dinner, and Yu Shu realized that he had been staying in this closed restaurant from morning to night for several days.

"Go back, I'll be looking for you in two more days." Although Xue Rui wanted to stay with Yu Shu for a moment and a half, he didn't want her to stay in this place and suffer with him.

Yu Shu looked at the large amount of food that Baode served, enough for the two of them to eat, so he picked up a pair of chopsticks and said to him:

"I'm hungry too, so I'll eat with you."

Xue Rui couldn't drive her away, so he had lunch with her.

After the meal, Baode picked up the dishes and chopsticks and left, Yu Shu touched here and looked there, but there was no intention of leaving.

Xue Rui couldn't detect her thoughts at this time, so he wasted his cleverness, and his heart was very useful, and he finally saw each other, and he was reluctant to let her go, so he was selfish, sat down after going back to the case, and greeted her:

"Ashu, come and help me sharpen my ink."

Yu Shu smiled secretly, simply responded with a "yes", and walked to his side.

So in this scorching summer, in the sultry literary hall, Lord Xue's red sleeves were fragrant, and he spent a not leisurely but complacent afternoon. (To be continued.) )
