As the boy left, the feeling of oppression in the air finally dissipated.

Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief, because she was happy in her heart, and her walking steps felt a lot lighter.

came out of the secret passage, changed his bedclothes, and was about to go to bed, and at this time, the palace maid on duty quickly knocked on the door of the dormitory.

"Niangniang, the emperor is angry again and is calling you over."

Concubine Shu's beautiful eyebrows furrowed, a trace of disgust flashed, and then she said lightly:

"Got it."

The palace maids in the outer hall crowded into the door, and the concubine put on luxurious palace clothes, and did not apply powder, so she felt the emperor's bedroom.

As soon as he entered the door, the old emperor was obviously angry.

And the person who was kneeling was the red man next to the old emperor, Lord Lin Xunlin.

Concubine Shu frowned.

Haven't these two always been very good?

That Lin Xun, but the person who has the most sacred heart, how can he ......

She walked in slowly, and Lin Xun did not shy away from it, and said directly:

"Your Majesty, you are angry, it is only a matter of time before the construction of Chaohua Pavilion begins."

Chaohua Pavilion?

Concubine Shu remembered.

A few days ago, the old emperor favored a palace maid again, and he loved it very much, and ordered the construction of a lake pavilion, but now the palace has a virtual appearance, where is the silver?

"Wait, wait, when will I wait!"

"The palace test! Your Majesty, after the palace test, the minister will arrange for you, and the minister has a recent matter that has been to be determined. ”

"Then hurry up, I'll wait for you."

"Obey."

......

As soon as the test list is completed, five days later, it will be the palace election.

The Emperor himself drew up the exam questions.

Unlike the general exam, this time, only one policy essay will be examined.

The examination room is set up in the palace, and the entrance to the palace is from the time of the day, and after dusk, the number of jinshi is selected.

In March, it was mostly drizzling, and when I woke up in the morning, the capital was shrouded in a haze.

Although the weather was cold, the enthusiasm of the crowd did not diminish in the slightest.

Today, their small three yuan in South China is about to enter the palace, and they may become the champion of the sixth yuan and the first.

How can they not be excited, how can they not be apprehensive!

The firecrackers of the old man are ready, and they are spread from the main gate of the palace to the south of the city.

Not only that, but the restaurants around the main street are also occupied by the people of Beijing.

It's like a festival, and it's lively.

There was a lot of noise outside, but the atmosphere in the Su family's courtyard was extremely heavy for the first time.

"Liuyu, after this day, everything needs to be cautious in words and deeds, slow down, if you are in trouble, you can discuss with the master, and you can't go your own way."

Shen Huaizhou was crowned by Su Liuyu, and his clear voice slowly spoke, patient and cautious.

Su Liuyu looked at Shen Huaizhou from the mirror.

"In the future, will you have the opportunity to live with Master?"

Su Liuyu met Shen Huaizhou at the age of ten.

He taught for three years.

From the small courtyard at the foot of Qinshan Academy to the capital, the two of them lived in one place.

After entering the palace, the procedures for entering the palace are complicated, and it is no longer like now, turn a corridor, open the door and see it.

Shen Huaizhou inserted the hosta into her hair and smiled.

"If you want to see it, just summon it."

"Master, can't you live in the palace?"

"It's not polite."

Shen Huaizhou looked at the jade-like little boy in the mirror and exclaimed: "Brother Yu has really grown up." ”

He rarely calls her so affectionately, and his brother's name is like a milk name, and when he calls her like this at this time, Su Liuyu feels a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"It's getting late, let's go."

Shen Huaizhou patted her on the shoulder and went out first.

Outside the courtyard gate, Prime Minister Song and Lin Xiuyun were already waiting.

Lin Xiuyun didn't sleep all night last night, and she was naturally informed of today's arrangements, so she couldn't sleep because she was worried early, and now she is blue.

Seeing Su Liuyu coming, he couldn't help but hurriedly walked over.

"I've worn enough clothes, and my hands are still so cold, do you want to make a soup girl?"

"Mother, I'm not cold." Su Liuyu hugged Lin Xiuyun and signaled her not to worry: "Wait for Brother Yu'er to come back and take you home." ”

Lin Xiuyun's eyes turned red instantly, and she didn't even say a few words, and said: "When your matter is done, my mother is going to take my sister back to Lingnan, and when I am free, my mother will come to see you." ”

What the!

Su Liuyu was stunned.

Speak in a hurry.

"Mother, you're leaving!" She hurriedly grabbed Lin Xiuyun's arm: "Mother, you wait for Brother Yu to come back to pick you up, you can't go, you're leaving, you're leaving, I'm ......"

It was the first time for Lin Xiuyun to see her son showing a scared appearance, her heart was sour, and she hurriedly comforted her.

"Okay, okay, my mother won't leave, Brother Yu'er is very important, and it can't be too late."

Su Liuyu carefully confirmed it several times, and only then did she feel relieved after getting Lin Xiuyun's assurance.

Everyone instructed carefully again, and Shen Huaizhou took her and Song Yanzhi into the carriage.

"Wait!"

Suddenly, Prime Minister Song staggered and walked to the carriage.

Su Liuyu hurriedly got out of the car.

"Sir."

Prime Minister Song took it out of his arms, took out an oiled paper bag, smiled with an old face, and handed it to her.

"Yesterday, I went to Babaozhai to buy a little red bean crisp, you have always loved to eat this, when you were young, others detained you, and you made trouble for a long time."

Red bean crisp?

She doesn't like sweets.

People who know her know about this matter.

However, she didn't think much about it, it should have been before she was ten years old.

It's hard for the old gentleman to remember.

She put the oil-paper bag in her bosom and made a salute.

"Thank you, sir, then I'll go."

"Good, good." Prime Minister Song Cheng's cloudy and old eyes looked at her with relief, and he couldn't help nodding.

The carriage moved slowly again.

In Su Liuyu's heart, it felt like pressing a stone, dull and dull.

The sky slowly brightened.

It was a drizzly day and the wind was biting cold.

As soon as she got out of the carriage, Su Liuyu couldn't help but shake her body.

Shen Huaizhou gathered her cloak and lowered his voice.

"General Yuan Ge has already made arrangements for entering the palace, and those ministers have also greeted him, no one has questioned it, and when he enters the Jinluan Palace, he will announce it in public."

Su Liuyu nodded, glanced at the vermilion palace wall in front of her, and then looked at Shen Huaizhou.

"Master, I'm leaving."

Shen Huaizhou smiled warmly and pushed Su Liuyu towards the door of the palace wall:

"Go ahead."

Goodbye here, it is the monarch and the minister.

The rain and mist fell on Shen Huaizhou's forehead, and he stood in the rain like this, watching her turn around and slowly walk towards the palace gate.

One step, two steps, three steps.

He sighed inwardly and turned around, unable to bear to look at it again.

And at this moment, I only felt a tightness around my waist behind him, wrapped my hand around him, hugged it hard, and immediately let go.

"Master, I'm really leaving."

He was slightly stunned, and in the blink of an eye, the person had already run away.

"This temperament is getting more and more naughty."

He shook his head, this time, he personally watched her enter the palace gate and receive the number plate, so he relieved himself and entered the carriage.

In the carriage, Shi'an had already warmed the tea.

See him come in.

He said again: "Childe, don't worry, Brother Yu will come back safely." ”

"Go to the house and wait for the news, this day of Great Wei is finally going to change."
