"The little student is soft-spoken...... I still have to bother the prime minister and the little county lord, I really dare not be ashamed! Hearing this, Ji Wenyu was grateful, hurriedly stood up, and made another big gift.

"Ji Gongzi don't say that," Shi Jianqi hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, after all, he couldn't let his father help him, and he didn't want Shi Qingqian to come into contact with other men, "Ji Gongzi has such a talent, if he can work with me in the future, it will also be our luck." ”

Shi Qingqian nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, my brother is right, Ji Gongzi, although your current talent has not yet been discovered, you will definitely be able to soar in the future!" It's gold, and it will shine sooner or later! ”

Ji Wenyu expressed his gratitude several times, and finally Shi Yuan spoke, let him live in the Hou Mansion for the past few days, and take Shi Qingqian to introduce him to the emperor, and he will help find a mansion.

In a blink of an eye, it is the day of the winter banquet, for some famous ladies, this is a time of year when you can compete for beauty, and for the current Shi Qingqi, this is a big day related to Ji Wenyu's career.

"Ji Gongzi, why do you always feel a little nervous?" Sitting on the pretentious position of entering the palace, Shi Qingqian saw that Ji Wenyu had been shrinking in the corner, so nervous that his hands kept rubbing back and forth, and couldn't help laughing.

"No, no ......" was poked in the sore spot, Ji Wenyu quickly laughed embarrassedly twice, "I, I'm just entering the palace for the first time, and I don't know what to do." ”

"This is simple, follow me, be cautious in your words and deeds, I believe it will be difficult for Ji Gongzi," Shi Qingqian tilted his head slightly, seeing that he was about to arrive at the palace gate, "By the way, it's good to hide from Prince Shen Xuan's henchmen." ”

Ji Wenyu nodded again and again.

Although he lived in the Hou Mansion these days, he seemed to have nothing to do, but he was not idle all day, in addition to listening to Shi Yuan's words, he wrote a few strategies for the excerpts he brought back, and also found out the current situation of the court to the people around him.

Ji Wenyu is not a cloud of people, he specially asked Shi Yuan for the recital written by the high-ranking and powerful person in the court during this time, after reading it carefully, he found that the crown prince Shen Xuan was ridiculous, and he didn't know what he had written, although Prime Minister Mo Ruan's recital was well written, but it was not difficult to see that he must be extremely strong and aggressive.

On the contrary, it is the edict of the fourth prince Shen Mi, although it is not strong enough, but it is decent, like a person who can be depended on.

As smart as he is, he naturally sees the division of forces in the court. Although the Ji family has always avoided the world, Ji Wenyu does not agree with the views of the ancestors of the Ji family, he is more willing to use his talents to learn a part, so when dealing with the obvious dispute in the court now, not only is there no fear and fear, but he is eager to try and faintly excited.

As for Shi Qingqi, he is the noble man in his life, and it is impossible not to repay the kindness of his encounter, Ji Wenyu has already secretly made up his mind - he will do all his best to help the Hou Mansion.

When the carriage arrived at the palace gate, Shi Qingqi, Ji Wenyu and Xue Ying walked in one after the other.

Like every year's palace banquet, the ministers and the children of the eunuchs get together separately and communicate with each other while waiting for the dinner to begin.

"Why! There you are! ”

Before he could walk to the Imperial Garden, Shi Qingqian was stopped by Mu He first. She had expected this, so she didn't react much, "Mu He, why didn't you visit Old Man Hu this year?" ”

Old man Hu is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, when the Zhong Academy first brought the matter to the Hanlin Academy, the scholar Hu also questioned Shi Qingqian's ability, but later Shi Qingqian still proved himself with his strength. Later, in the days when classes were held in the Hanlin Academy, Zuo Shinian and the fifth princess took her to stare at Hu University's morale.

But Shi Qingqian knew that Scholar Hu liked herself from the bottom of her heart, and she also liked the humorous old man.

Mu He would visit Scholar Hu first during the palace banquet almost every year, so he often came late for the palace banquet in the past.

"I went early today, and I will come back early." Mu He smiled gently, the sky blue crane on his body made him gentler than the morning sun, his tone has always been soft, even when he is angry, it makes people feel unimposing.

While speaking, Mu He noticed the familiar face following behind Shi Qingqian, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Qian'er, this is ......?"

"Ah, this is Ji Wenyu Ji Gongzi, you will know who he is later." Shi Qingqian flashed his body and introduced to the two, "Ji Gongzi, this is Mu He, Mu Xingfeng, and the son-in-law of the Shangshu family. ”

"It turns out that this is the legendary Ice Muscle Jade Bone Mu Xingfeng Mu Gongzi, Xiao Sheng has long admired the name." Ji Wenyu hurriedly took care of his luggage.

Mu He is not rude, and he also returns the favor.

After saying hello, Mu He was not in a hurry to ask where this Ji Wenyu came from, after all, Shi Qingqian was extremely smart in his eyes, and he would never bring any indiscreet people by his side, Mu He was very relieved of her.

As soon as she arrived at the Imperial Garden, Shi Qingqian saw the person she didn't want to see the last time - Shi Shuning.

Now that Shi Shuning's identity is different, the pomp is naturally different. When she entered the palace before, Shi Shuning didn't follow Shi Qingqian once, and she didn't even dare to make a sound, but since she became the prince's concubine, her waist has straightened, and she has tried her best to say a few words to Shi Qingqian at the palace banquet every year.

Shi Qingqian didn't understand her, why she couldn't say that she couldn't say herself, but she still had to continue like this.

At this moment, Shi Shuning was standing in the crowd of female dependents, and the triumphant smile on her face expressed her happy enjoyment of the stars holding the moon.

"Hey, mountain artillery." Shi Qingqian glanced at it, and couldn't stand Shi Shuning's villainous appearance at all.

I wanted to take Ji Wenyu to find a quiet pavilion where no one was there and sit well, waiting for the emperor to come over, but there were some things that I really couldn't dodge, and just walked out two steps, I only heard a coquettish voice in my ears: "Yo, the seventh sister is here?" ”

Listening to the voice, it made Shi Qingqian have goosebumps all over her body, she gritted her teeth, and turned her head with a smile: "Concubine Fang, it's not easy to see you so busy and see your sister." ”

While speaking, Shi Qingqian also caught a glimpse of the disdain on the face of the woman beside Shi Shuning.

It seems that Shi Shuning came early in the morning, and it is estimated that he has once again painstakingly managed a drama of 'my sister married into the East Palace, my sister hated because of jealousy, and my sister turned against her'. And in this play, Shi Shuning must be the victim.

She didn't create such a drama, that is, Shi Qingqian was never willing to waste time on such boring things, otherwise her mask would have been torn off a long time ago.

"Ouch, sister, can I miss you? Sister Fang Cai brought a lot of pastries, and I wanted to share them with my sisters, but unfortunately you came too late...... There wasn't a moment left of the pastry. Shi Shuning said this, and with the frowning action, she was even more pitiful.

White Lotus ......

This was the first word that came to Shi Qingqian's mind.
