"Ah Zhan, what happened just now, why did she leave crying?" Xue Yao eagerly walked into the private room.

"She thought I was interested in her and wanted to help her redeem herself, so I made it clear to her directly!" Jiang Zhan didn't expect that the other party would want to follow him.

"The Shangshu of the Criminal Department is really charming, and he actually captured a heart so quickly." Xue Yao pursed her lips and said.

"I've only met her once, and I'm just trying to get something out of her mouth, nothing else." If Jiang Zhan had guessed that she had a good impression of herself, she would definitely not come to her again today.

"I didn't say anything, why are you so nervous?" Xue Yao believed in him.

If Jiang Zhan was interested in her, it would be impossible for her to run away crying.

"Yao'er!" Jiang Zhan held her hand helplessly.

"I just think you're too peachy." It's obviously just a matter of effort, but it has provoked the secret consent of other girls.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Jiang Zhan, after all, she is ready to take advantage of others, who knows that the other party is really moved by him......

"I'll take you with me wherever I go in the future?" Jiang Zhan actually felt troublesome, if it weren't for Xue Yao's pregnancy, he wouldn't have come alone before.

"Don't want me to block those rotten peach blossoms for you." Xue Yao glared at him with disgust.

"You're protecting your husband's innocence." Jiang Zhan saw her eccentric appearance, and his heart suddenly relaxed.

"Now that the woman is gone, I'm afraid we won't be able to get any news from her mouth in the future, do you have any other ideas?" After Xue Yao teased him a few words, he immediately returned to the topic.

"Let's go back first." He didn't want to stay on the ship any longer now.

"Good!" Xue Yao was worried that the wall had ears, so she went back with him.

When the two returned to the mansion, they immediately summed it up, and decided to arrange their subordinates to continue to go over there to investigate the news, and Jiang Zhan no longer showed up, firstly, they could relax their vigilance, and secondly, they could avoid such a thing from happening again.

In fact, Xue Yao really didn't care, but Jiang Zhan didn't want to bother.

After Jiang Zhan arranged the matter, he began to deal with other things.

Now that the imperial examination is about to start, although Jiang Zhan is not the chief examiner, he is also starting to get busy.

Now, the emperor can reuse only a few of them, so a lot of things are shared among them......

On this day, Jiang Zhan suddenly received the emperor's will to let him enter the palace to discuss important matters.

Jiang Zhan put down the file in his hand and went over directly.

"See Your Majesty!" When Jiang Zhan passed, the emperor was looking at the fold in his hand with a frown.

"You've come just in time, I have something I need you to do." When the emperor saw him, his brows gradually relaxed.

"Your Majesty, please." Jiang Zhan stood respectfully in front of the emperor and said.

"I want you to be the chief examiner of this imperial examination." The emperor's words made Jiang Zhan's eyes darken.

"Wasn't the examiner set early in the morning?" Before, the emperor obviously asked Lord Huang of the Hanlin Academy to be the chief examiner.

"Lord Huang is not suitable, someone told me that he plans to promote his students in this imperial examination." A cold glint flashed in the emperor's eyes.

He has been in the Hanlin Academy for many years, although he has never been the chief examiner, but after checking the annual scientific examination, he secretly guessed the questions and asked his students and the children of his family to participate in the scientific examination.

Although this practice is not favoritism, it is also a violation of the rules.

The emperor doesn't want such a person to be the chief examiner.

Originally, after he removed Lord Huang, he considered other officials, but there was always something inappropriate.

What's more, he hopes that the examiner this time is the person he trusts the most, so as to ensure that the selected students are all talented and hardworking.

He didn't want to be busy, so he chose some people who were not top talents.

Among the many officials, Jiang Zhan and Wu Yuanheng won his heart the most, but Jiang Zhan was more far-sighted and patient in his work.

So after thinking about it, the emperor finally announced him to the palace and let him be the chief examiner.

Jiang Zhan knew that the emperor had a lot of considerations, but this matter was indeed too sudden.

However, after a moment of silence, he still obeyed the emperor's will.

In fact, as the chief examiner, what I am most worried about is that there will be fraud in the scientific examination.

After Jiang Zhan took over the burden this time, he immediately gave the emperor some suggestions.

The emperor felt that his suggestion was good, and almost all of them adopted it, after all, they all had a common purpose, that is, the scientific expedition could be carried out smoothly, and no one cheated.

Xue Yao was very surprised when she learned that the burden of invigilation fell on Jiang Zhan.

"The emperor asked you to be an official of the Criminal Department to be the chief examiner?" She had never heard that the chief examiner was from the Criminal Department, and he used to hold this position as officials from the Hanlin Academy, as well as the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Rites.

The Criminal Department is in charge of the case in the capital and never involves scientific research.

"The emperor can't find someone he trusts wholeheartedly, so he can only let me complete this matter." Jiang Zhan was also helpless.

However, this matter is related to the DPRK and China, and he will definitely not let people secretly take advantage of loopholes.

In order to prevent someone from coming over to deliberately curry favor and inquire about the news because of his identity, Jiang Zhan directly closed the door to thank the guests, and stopped going out except for the court.

The emperor was very satisfied with his approach, after all, he was a pure minister, as long as he was loyal to himself.

The more he was involved in the dealings between the court and the middle, the happier the emperor became.

Although his approach is easy for people to label him as unkind, Jiang Zhan and Xue Yao really don't care so much.

They don't go with those officials in the DPRK and China, not only because they have confidence, but more importantly, Jiang Zhan has no ambition to enter the cabinet.

Jiang Zhan was able to stay in the mansion, and Xue Yao was the happiest.

However, on this day, Jiang Zhan's mansion still came to an outsider.

Originally, they didn't want the other party to come in, but the other party insisted on seeing Jiang Zhan, so he had no choice but to let people wait in the side hall.

"You're the candidate this time?" Xue Yao looked at the other party and said.

"No, the little one was just ordered to send something to Lord Jiang." The man shook his head.

"What's it, who told you to send it?" Jiang Zhan said expressionlessly, "Don't you know that I never accept gifts?" ”

"This gift is very special, I believe that Lord Jiang will like it." The man didn't care what he said, and insisted that Jiang Zhan personally go to see the gift he had given.

"No matter how precious the gift is, Jiang doesn't need it, you better take it back." Jiang Zhan has always cared not much about things outside his body.

He can find a way to get what he wants without being given by others.

However, he is also very resolute about what he doesn't want.

"Lord Jiang take a look, if you really don't like it, it's not too late to take the small one back." The man refused to go.

"Do you know the consequences of that?" Blatantly bribing officials of the DPRK and China may lead to imprisonment in serious cases.

In fact, these things only depend on whether the parties will secretly leak secrets, otherwise no one will know.

"God knows this, you know and I know, as long as you don't say it, who knows?" He naturally understood the meaning of Jiang Zhan's words, but he had come to this point, and he couldn't return the same way with his things.

He had to leave something here, so that Jiang Zhan would face his master when he was on the scientific expedition.

Jiang Zhan was annoyed by him, so he decided to go over and take a look, and then immediately ordered him to take it away.

The man thought that Jiang Zhan's heart was moved, and immediately ordered someone to bring the gift in.

Then, when he ordered someone to open the box, the singer who had been on the boat slowly stood up.

"Is that you?" Jiang Zhan frowned, "What's going on?" ”

"Master Jiang, this is a gift from my master to you, I wonder if you are willing to stay?" The man stared at Jiang Zhandao.

"I don't need a woman, you bring her back immediately, and don't come back in the future, otherwise I will punish her severely." When Jiang Zhan learned that the other party had specially bought this woman and wanted to give it to himself, his eyes were covered with frost.

"How can there not be a few concubines in the man's house, this woman is naturally charming, she is a rare stunner, Lord Jiang really doesn't want it?" He thought it was a good thing to do.

As a result, he was given a cold reception by Jiang Zhan.

"What about others, I Jiang Zhan don't want to ask, but there will only be one housewife in my house, and there will be no concubines." Jiang Zhan refused again and again, but the person didn't seem to understand, so he just didn't leave.

"What's wrong with me, why is Jiang Gongzi unwilling to accept me?" The woman felt embarrassed and couldn't help but ask him a few words.

"I told you before that I only have Neiko in my heart, and no matter how beautiful the other women are, they are the same in my eyes." Jiang Zhan said a few words rarely.

After all, he will also be responsible for this matter in the future......

"It's good for Childe to keep me, as long as Childe gives me a place to live, I am grateful." The woman pleaded.

"Master Jiang doesn't have to think too much, it's just more than a pair of chopsticks in the house." The person who sent her here has also been persuading and bathing.

"No need, there are enough people eating in my house, I don't want to have another one!" Jiang Zhan knew very well in his heart that if he accepted this woman, he would definitely have to promise something.

Such a precedent was opened, and there will be an endless stream of people giving gifts in the house in the future.

Jiang Zhan's closed-door thanks during this period of time will fall short.

So no matter what they said, Jiang Zhan's attitude never changed.

"Childe, the little girl just wants to serve you, even if she doesn't want to be your concubine." When the woman saw that he really refused to let herself have a place in the mansion, she became even more anxious.

If she can't stay by Jiang Zhan's side, what will she do in the future?

"I swore that I would not accept concubines or accept sex in this life." Jiang Zhan was extremely indifferent.

"As long as the little girl can be a son, even if she doesn't have any name, she is willing to be happy." She just begged not to be returned.

"I don't take the outer room either." Xue Yao alone occupies one of his hearts.

No matter how good the other party is, it's not what Jiang Zhan wants.

"Childe, can you bear to let the little girl become someone else's canary?" She was disgraced, but she didn't dare to attack on the spot.

When she knew that she would have a chance to become Jiang Zhan's woman in the future, her heart had already flown over.

After all, with his identity and status, he threw himself into his arms, and he could be regarded as climbing high.

It's a pity that Jiang Zhan's words sent her into the abyss of despair.

"Childe, if you refuse to ask me, others will definitely take the opportunity to blackmail me, please help me get through the next few days, and when the matter passes, I will definitely leave......" The woman knelt in a low voice and begged Jiang Zhan to be soft-hearted.
