Chapter 700: Four Grades (Two Changes)

Zhou Gu said that he would do it, and after breakfast, he was going to see the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

The King of Southern Chu looked at Su Rong.

Su Rong waved his hand, "I'm not going, I'm going to see the queen." ”

The King of Southern Chu nodded, "Okay." ”

Su Rong asked: "No matter what I do, my father has no opinion, right?" ”

The king of Nanchu was disgusted, "Yes, you can dispose of it." ”

Su Rong got up and left.

The king of Southern Chu also stood up and said to Zhou Gu, "Go, Gu will personally send you to the Ministry of Rites." The Ministry of Rites happens to lack a waiter, so you should take this shortage! ”

Zhou Gu smiled, "Father-in-law, it's the fourth grade." ”

"Well, you are a future prince, and now you are only four grades." The king of Nanchu felt that if it weren't for Zhou Gu wanting to go to the six departments, he felt that he was with Su Rong, and it was just right for the prison to approve the review, and now he wanted to go to the six departments, and the official position that had just entered the court could not go back to the snow overnight, otherwise it would not be good.

Zhou Gu sighed, the fourth grade is not small, if he stays in Daliang, he will have to start from the fifth grade at the earliest. He sighed, "Father-in-law, you are too good to me." ”

The king of Nanchu patted him on the shoulder, "You can come to Nanchu for Xiao Qi, and Gu naturally wants to be good to you." What is this good now, and the days to come will be long. ”

Zhou Gu smiled, although he left the capital of Daliang, it was a little farther away, but he said something without conscience, he had been out for half a year, and he really didn't feel homesick.

After the two arrived at the Ministry of Rites, they heard the singing harmony, and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly greeted them with people, and bowed their hands to salute, "Your Majesty, why are you here?" ”

The king of Nanchu said "no courtesy", pointed to Zhou Gu beside him and said to Lao Shangshu: "Aiqing, this is Zhou Gu, isn't there a shortage of people in your etiquette department?" Lonely sent him over, from now on, he will come to the Ministry of Rites to meet the shortage of waiters, you take care of him more. ”

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu naturally knew Zhou Gu, and yesterday he also went to the city gate to pick up the princess and return to Beijing, and looked at Zhou Gu in surprise when he heard this, and arched his hand, "Son Thursday, is there a shortage of top waiters in the Ministry of Rites?" ”

It's really hard to believe that this future prince, who is famous all over the world with a sword in his hands, and goes to the army to fight and plot, actually came to his Ministry of Rites.

Zhou Gu avoided Lao Shangshu's courtesy, and hurriedly saluted, "Lord Shangshu, yes, the lower officials are on duty in the Ministry of Rites, if you have any work, just send it to the lower officials." ”

He quickly integrated into his identity and became a subordinate official.

Lao Shangshu almost said that he didn't dare to dare, but looking at Zhou Gu's serious and sincere face, and seeing that the King of Southern Chu was not like a joke, he was puzzled and strange, "Your Majesty, why did the fourth prince come to the Ministry of Rites?" There are many vacancies in the six departments of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China......"

"Isn't your Ministry of Rites short of people?" The king of Nanchu looked at him, "Especially the preparation of the princess's wedding, it takes countless people to work. ”

"Then you don't need the fourth son, the fourth son comes to the Ministry of Rites, it's overkill." Although the Ministry of Rites Shangshu had never met Zhou Gu before, in the past year, the reputation of this Thursday prince has been heard countless times.

"He wants to do his own wedding." Southern Chu King Road.

Zhou Gu said on the side: "Yesterday, the princess told me that she would get married within half a year, and the princess knew that it was really difficult for Lord Shangshu, so she asked me to help, and in addition, the princess will also send more people to fully assist Lord Shangshu in preparing for this matter." ”

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu's eyes widened instantly, half a year? The princess is joking, right?

He looked at Zhou Gu and saw what he said affirmatively, and he didn't know if he could do it for a while, if it was half a year, this princess couldn't push it out, otherwise who could guarantee him that he could do it in half a year?

He immediately gave up his hand, "Okay, it is an honor for the old minister to come to the Ministry of Rites." The king, please, the fourth son, please. ”

Naturally, the king of Nanchu didn't send Zhou Gu to come and leave, he also wanted to see what kind of charter he had become. Together with Zhou Gu, he was led by the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and entered the Ministry of Rites.

After Su Rong left the Qinzheng Palace, he went to the dormitory where the king of Southern Chu used to live, and the dormitory was sealed by the Praetorian Guards, and it had already been sealed for two or three months on the day the king of Southern Chu returned to the royal capital.

Su Rong came to the dormitory, and the forbidden army immediately brushed their salutes, "Princess!" ”

Su Rong nodded, "Open the palace gate." ”

One of the guards immediately responded and waved open the blocked palace door.

Su Rong walked in, and the head of the guard saw that she was coming alone, and there was no one around him, so he hesitated, afraid that the princess would suffer, so he brought a few people to follow her.

After Queen Nangong Xin occupied the bedroom of the king of Nanchu, she naturally moved the people who served around her here, she thought that after the king of Nanchu returned to the palace safely, she would come and kill her angrily when she learned that she had occupied his bedroom, but she waited for two or three months, and he didn't come, he just sent someone to seal this place, and he didn't even see her.

When she was sick, a doctor came to see her, and her three meals a day were not harsh, but she was sealed and not seen.

Nangong Xin would not feel that the King of Nanchu was reluctant to her, let alone feel sorry for her, and Chu Rong did not pity her.

She gradually understood what his idea was, probably waiting for Su Rong to return to the palace, and then hand her over to her to dispose of.

She was calm in her heart, she had seen Su Rong's portrait, and she had heard a lot of her growth history, and the things that the Dark Guard had given her were very detailed, so to speak, how many years she sent someone to kill Su Rong paid attention to her. From Su Rong's body, she didn't see the shadow of a gentle person like the county lord Zhenmin back then, except for the appearance.

Since she didn't leave, didn't follow the Nangong family to leave the royal capital, didn't leave the palace, and stayed alone, she had already put life and death out of the way, so she had already expected what she would do.

To this day, she has no regrets.

She thought, Su Rong was torturing her? Or kill her? It's nothing more than these two paths.

The palace door opened, and the people who followed the queen of Nanchu changed their faces together, and everyone was panicked, in fact, on the day when the Nangong family and the king of Liu'an found that the king of Nanchu was missing, before Nangong Xin moved to this palace, she had dismissed a group of people who were waiting around her, those who were willing to go, and those who were unwilling to go, stayed, and now there were seven or eight people serving around her, who had nowhere to go and were unwilling to go, but even if she was loyal to her, she was ready to accompany the queen to no good end, but on this day, she was still scared and frightened.

One of them went inside and told Nangong Xin, "King, queen, the princess is here!" ”

Nangong Xin was sitting in front of the mirror, making hairpins for herself, naturally she had heard the movement outside, she said "um", "Come on, what's the panic?" Let you go, you don't go, to this day, regret is useless. ”

The man instantly calmed down, "The slave doesn't regret accompanying you." ”

Her life was saved by the queen, she has been with the queen for many years, although the queen has a bad temper, but she has never killed innocents indiscriminately, of course, except for sending people to Jiangning County in Daliang, the people in this palace, the queen has not poisoned anyone for no reason.
