Chapter Thirty-Eight: Opportunity

Zhao Hongrun's promise made Miss Su's heart quite moved.

After all, regardless of the age gap, Zhao Hongrun is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, although he is immature but dignified, even if his temperament is a little awkward at times, he is still an excellent choice for a husband, at least Miss Su can't find anything wrong.

Of course, this may have something to do with the fact that he was her first man.

But in any case, although Zhao Hongrun is young, he knows how to shoulder responsibilities, which makes Miss Su feel very warm.

Now what she is most worried about is Zhao Hongrun's family's opinion of her, after all, she is not from a very good background, although she is a clean child, but she can't avoid some people's different opinions about her.

In addition, the fact that Fang Shuixie picked her cards also made Miss Su feel worried, for fear that she and Zhao Hongrun would come out of the powerful before.

But to her surprise, Fang Shuixie obviously took her card, but the powerful person she guessed had taken a fancy to him never appeared, which made her feel quite puzzled.

Isn't it because someone has taken a fancy to her relationship?

Miss Su, who breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly tightened her heart after thinking about it carefully.

Because, if there is no third party involved, then there is only one explanation, that is, the family of "Jiang Gongzi" used the relationship to prompt one side of the water pavilion to stop her cards.

The meaning is self-evident.

To put it mildly, she is now the woman of "Jiang Gongzi", so the family of "Jiang Gongzi" naturally does not want her to have anything to do with other men.

In this regard, Miss Su is actually more inclined to this, as the so-called good woman does not marry a second husband, if it is not for various objective reasons, which woman in the world does not want to dedicate her life to her first man from the beginning?

At least Miss Su was willing.

But the problem is that the "Jiang Gongzi's family" has never shown up during this period, which makes it impossible for her to guess what the other party will use the relationship to make one side of the water pavilion suspend her cards.

Perhaps, the parents of "Jiang Gongzi" just regarded her as their son's plaything.

Whenever she thought of this possibility, Miss Su couldn't help but sigh.

But when she recalled Zhao Hongrun's sincere eyes when he promised her, she couldn't help but feel a warm heart.

"Drag it on, he's only fourteen years old anyway......

In the main room, Miss Su is not counting on it, and the status of a concubine is enough to satisfy her. Of course, the premise is that "Jiang Gongzi's parents" must recognize her, a woman from a Qinglou.

She didn't expect that "Jiang Gongzi's parents", but today's Great Wei Tianzi and Shen Shufei, these two have never interfered in their son's affairs at all, and the people who stopped her cards are others.

After another day or two, Zhao Hongrun did not go to the water pavilion again, but asked Mu Qing to send some silver to Miss Su, so that his woman could have the money to deal with the stewardship of the water pavilion.

After all, Zhao Hongrun couldn't imagine that someone secretly helped him, so that his woman, Miss Su, was now like a princess being offered by a water pavilion, and no one dared to offend.

"Miss Su, my son-in-law asked me to convey a message. Gongzi has been strictly controlling his family in recent days and does not allow him to go out, so he has not had the opportunity to meet Miss Su in a short period of time. ”

When he saw Miss Su, Mu Qing conveyed the words entrusted by Zhao Hongrun.

In fact, Zhao Hongrun is already dealing with Luo Wenzhong, the official department, but this kind of thing is not easy to tell Miss Su, so as not to worry about her for no reason, so he deduces that the family is strictly controlled.

But Zhao Hongrun would never have imagined that his remarks would make Miss Su think of some bad things.

"The house is strictly controlled...... What?'

Miss Su's heart really sank: "Please trouble this little brother to pass this sachet to your son for the slave family." …… And told him that no matter what, the slave family would not complain about him, and he would ...... Don't owe anything to the slaves. ”

As she spoke, Miss Su handed a purple brocade sachet to Mu Qing.

In Dawei, most of the gifts between men and women are mainly sachets, handkerchiefs, and jewelry, and if there is a certain relationship, the woman will personally sew sachets, money bags and other small items that can be carried with her, and give them to the man to express her heart.

According to the rules, not only some spices are stuffed into the sachet, but there is also a wisp of Miss Su's green silk, which is woven into a knot and hidden in the sachet, which is self-evident.

Mu Qing nodded, and returned to the palace to pass Miss Su's sachet to His Royal Highness.

Zhao Hongrun was such a keen person, as soon as he heard Mu Qing's description of Miss Su's expression at that time, he knew that she had misunderstood again.

However, he didn't plan to clarify this misunderstanding for the time being, after all, if it wasn't for the home ban as an excuse, he couldn't explain to Miss Su why he couldn't go to the Yifang Water Pavilion in the future.

After thinking about it, Zhao Hongrun followed his memory and drew the grace and tranquility of Miss Su's green silk waterfall and playing the piano when he first saw Miss Su, and asked Mu Qing to send it to Miss Su immediately.

In his opinion, this painting should be able to coax the other party for a while until he solves Luo Wenzhong's matter.

Sure enough, Miss Su, who took over the painting from Mu Qing's hand, couldn't take care of the grievances, and she was overjoyed with the scroll in her hand.

In this way, there is no problem on Miss Su's side for the time being, and Zhao Hongrun can finally concentrate on thinking about how to deal with Luo Wenzhong.

As for how to deal with this Luo Wenzhong, Zong Wei Gao Kuo heard a piece of news.

"Your Highness, in this year's scientific examination, His Majesty appointed that Luo Wenzhong as the chief invigilator, and also proposed to let His Royal Highness the Prince accompany the superintendent. …… That's a great opportunity. ”

The imperial examination, also known as the imperial examination, is an excellent way for children from poor families to ascend to the official career.

Zhao Hongrun has also heard about this matter.

He knew that the Great Wei had to hold a scientific examination every three years to recruit talented young men in the country, and to promote them as backup officials according to their merits, and it was no exaggeration to say that the scientific examination was a major event related to the rise and fall of the Great Wei state.

However, it is precisely because the scientific examination is the best way to become a career in the official ranks, so it is difficult to avoid fraud incidents in the annual scientific examination. After all, the scientific examination once every three years is the most important thing for those who want to embark on a career in the office, or for those who simply want to become an official and soar.

As for the fact that the Great Wei Tianzi appointed that Luo Wenzhong as the main invigilator, Zhao Hongrun was not surprised, after all, a few days ago, the Great Wei Tianzi praised that Luo Wenzhong in front of him, praising his methods and strategies.

What surprised Zhao Hongrun was the suggestion of the Son of Heaven's "Prince Companion".

"What is this? Father, is this giving me a chance to deal with Luo Wenzhong? Or is it ...... Father has other plans?'

Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

He couldn't guess, he couldn't guess the true thoughts of the Great Wei Emperor.

You must know that compared to taking revenge on Luo Wenzhong, Zhao Hongrun does not want to be used by his father, which is what he can't bear the most. After all, the father-son war is currently one win and one loss, whenever he thinks of the father and the emperor in Ningxiang Palace, taking advantage of the way Concubine Shen Shufei was teaching him a laugh, Zhao Hongrun was very angry in his heart.

Unexpectedly, he got the news soon after, and it turned out that the "prince's companion" in the mouth of the emperor of Great Wei was limited to the prince who left the cabinet, in other words, the move of the emperor of Great Wei was just to let Zhao Hongrun's brothers try to get in touch with national affairs, and he was not included at all.

Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun couldn't bear it anymore and went straight to the Vertical Arch Palace.

Since the second battle of the father-son war has been decided, the Son of Heaven was defeated and the prince was victorious, therefore, the Vertical Arch Hall was no longer a forbidden place that Zhao Hongrun could not set foot in.

"The Eighth Prince asks to see!"

In the report of Lang Wei outside the hall, Zhao Hongrun couldn't wait for the Great Wei Tianzi in the hall to allow him to enter, so he broke in alone.

The three ministers in the hall looked up, and then continued to approve the chapter fold by themselves, after all, this highness used to be a frequent visitor to the vertical arch hall, and there was nothing unusual for him to come here.

However, the Son of Heaven seemed to be unhappy, frowned and said, "Hongrun, I haven't allowed you to enter yet, why did you break in?" I don't know how to count! ”

"It's all trivial." The Son of Heaven didn't take Zhao Hongrun's reprimand to heart at all, only to see him approach the dragon case and ask, "I heard that my father appointed Luo Wenzhong as the chief examiner of this year's scientific examination?" And let a prince accompany the prison? ”

"That's true, what?"

Zhao Hongrun thought for a while and said, "The emperor implores him to serve as a companion and share his father's worries!" ”

『……』

He Xiangxu, Lin Yuyang, and Yu Ziqi, the three ministers of Chinese calligraphy, raised their heads suspiciously, they couldn't imagine that this playful prince would have a time to contribute to the country and share worries for the Son of Heaven.

"Worried about me? That's nice, but you think I don't know what you're thinking? The Son of Heaven glanced at his son and said lightly: "You haven't left the pavilion yet." …… My Great Wei ancestral system stipulates that before the prince leaves the cabinet, he is not allowed to see the officials of the court and the central government, nor is he allowed to have the slightest contact with him, don't you know? ”

Indeed, the ancient system of the Great Wei Dynasty does have such a provision, which is precisely the reason why the seventh prince Hongyin, the eighth prince Hongrun, and the ninth prince Hongxuan are not known to the outside world, and they only know their existence, but they don't know what they look like.

"This ancestral system is not fair!"

"Attack the ancestral system, you are so bold." The Son of Heaven rolled his eyes and said angrily, "No matter what you say, I won't allow it!" …… National events, its child's play?! ”

"No way?"

"No way!"

"Really?"

"Not really!"

"Can't you be accommodating?"

"No way!" The Son of Heaven said in annoyance.

Zhao Hongrun pouted: "Then I'll stay here and not leave!" ”

"Wouldn't it? Again?'

Zhongshu Ling He Xiangxu and Zhongshu Zuo Cheng Lin Yuyang looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Seeing this, the Son of Heaven snorted coldly: "Even if you cheat, you can't do it!" ”

"Where did the emperor cheat? The emperor just thinks it's unfair! …… Why didn't the father give the emperor the slightest thought, so he refused directly? ”

The Son of Heaven frowned: "What do you want to say?" ”

I saw Zhao Hongrun pondering for a moment, and grinned: "Why don't we draw lots?" Whoever is caught will serve as the prince's companion. …… Everything depends on the will of God, if the will of God does not allow the emperor to serve as a prisoner, the emperor has nothing to say. ”

"Lots? This kid must have been planning to cheat in the lottery.'"

The Son of Heaven was clear in his heart, looked at Zhao Hongrun deeply, and said lightly: "You won't use any sideways tricks, Hongrun?" ”

"No, no, no......" Zhao Hongrun smiled innocently.

After a long time, the Great Wei Tianzi nodded slowly.

"Good! Decide the prince and the eunuch by drawing lots! …… I'm going to see what tricks you can play. ”
