Chapter Seventy-Eight: I Don't Like to Be Manipulated
Finally arrived on the day Su Cimo entered the palace, she was very nervous, after all, this was the first time she had entered the palace to meet the emperor, so she needed to pay more attention to herself no matter where she was.
The first time I entered the palace to meet the emperor, I was not accompanied by anyone else, but Tuoba Huan was next to him.
Su Cimo's heart was slightly less nervous than before, but he also understood that Tuoba Huan was not the object that he could fully trust.
When the two came to the emperor's study, there was no one else in the room, only the emperor was sitting there to correct the folds.
first bowed to the emperor in front of him, and the emperor didn't say anything, but just asked the two of them to wait for Su Cimo to wait anxiously for the emperor in front of him to finish correcting the recital, and then began to greet and speak.
"You are Su Cimo?" The emperor looked at Su Cimo in front of him very beautifully as he spoke, and after looking at it a few times, he withdrew his gaze.
Su Cimo nodded nervously and replied: "If you go back to the emperor, it is the grass people." ”
"I heard that you have a lot of insights into the way of water control, and the experience you said is very good, I didn't expect you to have such lofty opinions at such a young age, but who did you listen to?" The emperor smiled and looked at Su Cimo in front of him, and he didn't forget to drink tea while speaking.
Facing the leisurely attitude of the superior in front of him, Su Cimo looked more cramped, and just smiled slightly: "If you go back to the emperor, I naturally don't understand these things at my age, but when I was a child, there were strangers who passed by, but my family gave me a bite to eat, and then I remembered these things when I talked about the world." ”
After saying this, Su Cimo always felt that something was wrong, so he smiled and added, "I think this is to block the flood, although there is a saying that the soldiers will flood the water, so the flood also needs sediment, so I feel that when the flood comes again, there needs to be sediment in the cloth bag to fill it." ”
The emperor nodded very happily, and then remembered something, looked at the person in front of him and continued: "I have seen that your grades in the Guozijian Academy are very good, you are the first in every exam, and you are also very good in other aspects, Wu Lun is archery, playing the piano or playing chess, these are very good, I didn't expect you to have such a high level of knowledge." ”
"Thank you for the emperor's praise, it's just that I work harder than others on weekdays." Su Cimo still nodded nervously, his hand hidden in his sleeve and pinched tightly, wondering if the other party would ask him some other questions.
The emperor casually asked at this time, "What are your ambitions in the future?" ”
After Su Cimo Weiwei raised her eyes and glanced at the emperor in front of her, she pondered for a moment, and then continued, "Naturally, I hope to be able to enter the court as an official and work for the benefit of the people." ”
"Good, good." The emperor was still so happy that he couldn't help but praise Su Cimo in front of him.
Su Cimo smiled awkwardly.
So after about half an hour of this conversation, there was nothing more to continue.
After coming out of the main hall, Su Cimo felt a little relieved at this time, after all, he was not as vigilant as before, because of the existence of Tuoba Huan around him, so he had no way to hide his ability in front of the emperor.
The main reason is that he didn't have a heart-to-heart relationship with Tuoba Huan, and he didn't decide to join the other party's disciples, so he is naturally vigilant about the man in front of him now.
And he didn't believe that Tuoba Huan in front of him was completely good for himself, so Su Cimo naturally wouldn't reveal too much to the people in front of him.
"I don't like being at the mercy of people like that." The expression on Su Cimo's face was very serious when he spoke, after all, he was very serious about mentioning this matter now.
Tuoba Huan turned his head to look at the person in front of him with such a serious look, but he laughed instead, just smiled and shook his head, not taking this matter to heart.
When Su Cimo returned to the academy, he recalled some details of meeting the emperor today, and there was no big mistake in thinking about it, first, he was relieved.
At this time, Concubine Yang, who was in the palace, heard that the emperor had specially summoned Su Cimo, and after thinking about it, she went directly to the emperor's side.
Concubine Yang walked to Huangshan's side very charmingly with a smile that captivated the country and the city, "The emperor is too tired today, and the concubine specially boiled soup to relieve the emperor's fatigue." ”
"Well, you're sensible." The emperor took a sip of the soup, found that the soup tasted good, and praised it.
Concubine Yang smiled and didn't say anything, but reached out and directly pinched the emperor's shoulders and back.
After the emperor finished drinking the soup, he turned his head and asked the people around him: "What do you have to say, and you came to me to offer your courtesy?" ”
"It turns out that you can't hide anything from the emperor." Concubine Yang smiled awkwardly, and then turned her head and walked in front of the emperor.
After kneeling in front of the person in front of her, Concubine Yang looked up at the emperor in front of her, and then said slightly: "The emperor summoned Su Cimo from the Guozijian Academy today, the concubine has also heard of this child before, it seems that he is excellent in all aspects, and the concubine also appreciates such a child who can contribute to the country, and hopes that the emperor can send this child to the Seventh Prince." ”
After hearing this, the emperor did not speak, but raised his eyes carelessly, glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, and then turned his head and said, "No." ”
"The Emperor's ......"
Concubine Yang wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by the emperor.
"I'll talk about this later, I'm going to continue to read the excerpts, you can go back."
After the emperor said this, he turned around and returned to the table next to him, sat down and continued to hold the book to check the contents on it.
Even though Concubine Yang was very reluctant in her heart, she could only retreat.
And here, Tuoba Huan soon received news from the palace, saying that Concubine Yang wanted to ask the emperor to give Su Cimo to the seven princes, but the emperor refused.
Tuoba Huan didn't understand it in his heart, why did the emperor do this, he didn't understand it after thinking about it, but he didn't expect to meet Lin Wan'er by chance, so the two went to the restaurant to sit down.
There was a lot of trouble in the Wang family's mansion here, and the entire Wang family listened to the movement in the study with trepidation.
"Father, my son said that I want to go to the academy to study, why did you refuse me?"
Wang Hao still didn't understand, looking at his father in front of him, he didn't know why the other party would refuse such a reasonable request.
Wang Hao's father turned his head at this time and looked at the very angry person standing next to him, his face turned green, and he said angrily: "What do you kid think in your heart? Will the old man not know? Don't think you're so careful, I don't know if you went to study in the academy, did you really go to study? Who exactly is it for, do you think I don't know? ”
Suddenly I was pierced with the thoughts in my heart, and I didn't think about how to answer in the future, so I smiled a little embarrassedly, and I could only stand in place at this time, a little cramped.
"You'd better take those thoughts of yours for me, stay at home well, don't think about running out, don't think about going to study at Guozijian Academy, and use all your thoughts on the right path!" The father of the Wang family was very annoyed when he saw his son in front of him so uncompromisingly, so he turned his head and sat directly on the stool next to him, and slammed the table next to him with all his might.
The sudden sound of pounding the table startled the whole room.
"If you don't agree with me going to the academy, then I'll go on a hunger strike, it's a big deal to starve myself, since you don't like me, then I don't need to live in this world."
Wang Hao now also wants to go to the academy, although he does want to see Su Cimo in his heart, but now if his father wants to refuse, then of course he will not be willing, and now the worst result is death, so after thinking about it, he is still willing to fight.
The queen's father looked at the son in front of him, and actually thought about threatening himself with a hunger strike, and after thinking about it, he directly deduced hatred and said angrily: "Since you want to starve to death, then starve to death, the old man should not have given birth to your son, you think you can threaten me like this, it is impossible!" ”
"Never! Never! Wang Hao's mother hurriedly did it, and then ran directly to the front to grab Wang Hao.
Wang Hao's mother looked at the child in front of her with a sad face at this time, and then pulled the person behind her, and then stepped forward to face Wang Hao's father, "Master, our family will be the next child, do you really want our family to be the last?" Our Wang family is just this one seedling, are you ruthless? ”
"Since he wants to go to the academy to find that Su Cimo, it is absolutely impossible." Wang Hao's father naturally knew what his son was thinking, so it was absolutely impossible to agree.
Wang Hao looked at his father's resolute attitude, and thought in his heart that only his mother could help him, so he whispered a few words to his mother.
After hearing these words, the queen mother thought about it, and still helped the son in front of her persuade a few words, saying that he would definitely study hard in the academy in the future, and he would be able to get certain grades, etc., which made Wang Hao's father relieved.
"Don't think that if I agree to you to enter the academy to study, you can stop making an atmosphere, if you don't show decent results by then, then you can just get out of the Wang family for me, I will be the only seedling in my Wang family, and it doesn't matter if you are in the end!"
After this warning, Wang Hao's father naturally went to get through the relationship between Guozijian Academy and sent Wang Hao to study in the academy.
And Yang Baihao's parents also left the academy, and Bi Jing Yang Baihao's injuries were almost healed, so they had to hurry home to deal with things at home.
"The original thing was that I misunderstood you, and I would like to thank you for taking care of Yang Baihao on weekdays." Yang Baihao's mother looked at Su Cimo in front of her with a loving face at this time.
Su Cimo smiled happily and shook his head: "Aunt don't worry about this, our brothers naturally take care of each other on weekdays, and these are nothing." ”
Father Yang also followed after a while, "It's better to trouble you to take care of him more on weekdays, although he is almost in good health." ”
"That's nature." Su Cimo smiled and nodded.
