The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes widened, and the whole person was stunned.

What a beautiful woman!

Although Shang Xiufang has only been here for ten months, he will come to cheer every time there is a performance. It's a pity that every time I can only stand on the first floor and look up, I can't really see it.

At this moment, when he saw this beautiful woman up close, he fell.

How can such a woman be accommodated in Manqingyuan?

When he looked back, his posture was fluttering, like a princess in the deep palace wearing wide sleeves and flowing clouds.

When she walked over slowly, Sakura's lips had not yet opened, and it seemed that she had a thousand words to appeal to you

A pair of real, talking eyes.

As the beauty approached, the eldest grandson Wuji's heartbeat was already almost extreme.

However, the beauty's next action almost shattered his heart directly.

Shang Xiufang finally approached, her eyes looked at Mo Xiaolou in a daze, and suddenly she jumped on Mo Xiaolou's body with a movement that was absolutely not in line with her identity.

And Mo Xiaolou also opened his hands very skillfully, hugged her with a princess hug action, and said softly:

"Well, I've come to see you. ”

Shang Xiufang grinned, and said a little embarrassed: "I ran out secretly, I thought my godfather would be angry~"

Mo Xiaolou pinched her Qiong nose and said with a smile: "How come." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was so shocked that he almost swayed, stretched out his fingers weakly, and said, "...... Godfather?!"

Called godfather so soon?

Since the bright moon, the eldest grandson Wuji found that he had lost a goddess forever......

Even Xiyan stuck out her tongue in shock, and her eyes lit up: "Brother Yuwen, it turns out that you already know Xiufang's baby~"

Mo Xiaolou put down Shang Xiufang, took out the contract document of Man Qingyuan, handed it to Shang Xiufang, and said, "Since you came out, why do you want to send someone to the fence." ”

"What is this?"

"The title deed of Manqing Court. ”

"Ah-" Shang Mingyue took a sip and said in surprise: "Godfather, you are so good, Mo Da~"

The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes were about to fall to the ground. Shang Xiufang has always been as noble as an orchid in the hollow valley, how could she ever show such a cute expression in front of outsiders?

I've learned, I've learned, that's how money is used!

My eldest grandson, Wuji, also wants to be someone else's godfather!!

Xiyan clapped her hands and smiled: "Great, in this way, Xiufang baby, you can't hide from the signboard of the first talented woman in Manqingyuan." ”

Shang Xiufang snorted lightly and raised her head slightly: "Hmph, she is the most talented woman in the world." ”

......

The next day, above the court.

Mo Xiaolou didn't ask for any more leave, because this day was the day when His Majesty conferred the rank on Jinshi. For students, this link is sometimes more important than the ranking of scientific examinations. If you can leave a good impression in front of the emperor, you may even catch up, and you will naturally be just around the corner.

Seeing Yang Guang again, he seemed to have gained a lot of weight, with some tiredness on his face, and he always reclined as if he had no energy.

The only thing that hasn't changed is that special pair of eyes.

Many Jinshi in the hall looked at Mo Xiaolou, and many of them had gloating expressions on their faces.

Qionglin dared to be absent from the banquet, and his courage was really fat. Today's court meeting, I'm afraid he will be held accountable first.

Yuwen Tuo didn't know what kind of illness he was committing, what a glory the Qionglin Banquet was, not to mention that he was the champion who monopolized the leader, and he actually lived up to the holy grace so much that he slapped His Majesty's face with a crackle......

"Students, see Your Majesty. ”

As soon as the time of the court came, all the students knelt down to pay respects, but Mo Xiaolou only bowed slightly.

"Bold Yuwen Tuo, when I saw Your Majesty, I dared not kneel!"

An angry shout came from the left hand side mo xiaolou turned his head and saw that he had recognized the person who spoke as yu wenhua and.

He glanced to the left and said suspiciously: "It turns out that you are the emperor?" ”

"Daring, you-"

"You are bold!" Mo Xiaolou snorted, strode up to him, and stared coldly into his eyes,

"A little right guard general, above the court, Your Majesty didn't speak, but you stood up first. Those who don't know are afraid that they really want to think of you as an emperor. Hmph!"

Yu Wenhua and the murderous in his eyes, if he were not in the court, he would definitely tear the people in front of him apart.

"That's it. ”

Yang Guang said softly and stopped the confrontation between the two.

"Yu Wenhua, I know that you and the new champion have a grudge because of the family's internal affairs. I don't want to worry about this matter, you go back and settle it yourself, don't quarrel in this court. ”

He stared at Yu Wenhua coldly, and then turned to look at Mo Xiaolou, and there was no joy or anger in his voice: "Yuwen Tuo, there is a royal history that you don't obey the king's order, and the Qionglin banquet is absent, do you have anything to say?"

Mo Xiaolou bowed, "Back to Your Majesty, there is indeed such a thing." ”

Yang Guang leaned back in his chair, glanced at him, and said, "Let's talk about it, what is the important reason why you didn't even participate in the Qionglin Banquet, could it be that you did some big deal." ”

After that, Yang Guang snorted, rubbing the report in his hand, obviously knowing that Mo Xiaolou went to the Qinglou under the pretense of visiting relatives. It's just for the sake of face in the court, it's not good to say it in person.

Mo Xiaolou said with a smile: "Students just feel that it is unnecessary to waste precious time on this extravagant and meaningless banquet. ”

"Hugh has to speak wildly!"

"Yuwen Tuo, are you looking for death!"

"Don't think that if you get a champion, you really think of yourself as a character, when the old man is in Shilin, you haven't been born yet!"

......

Mo Xiaolou's words instantly made the court explode, scolding, scolding, and accusing...... Voices come and go.

"Quiet-" Without Yang Guang opening his mouth, his own little eunuch shouted and stopped the chaos in the court.

Yang Guang wrote lightly: "There is no decree in this dynasty that stipulates that the Qionglin banquet must be attended, although Yuwen Tuo's actions are not in line with the etiquette, but it is not contrary to the law, so the matter will be stopped." As for the extravagance of your feasting and drinking......"

Speaking of this, he thought for a moment, then looked at Yang Xuangan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, on the side, and said in a straight voice:

"Yang Xuangan, Qionglin banquet in the future...... No...... All court banquets, the size is halved, and the form is the main thing. ”

"Yes!" Yang Xuan was suddenly named, and hurriedly held the wat board to answer the order. In his heart, he slandered: This Yuwen Tuo is so powerful, to put it mildly, he will lose a lot of oil and water.

All the imperial historians looked at each other, and they all lowered their heads and stopped talking.

This matter can be big or small, whether it is a severe punishment or a light punishment, it is all in the mind of His Majesty, as soon as these words came out, of course they knew that His Majesty did not want to punish Yuwen Tuo heavily for this matter, and even adopted his advice to express his appreciation, and this matter was basically an understatement.

Yu Wenhua frowned, and glanced vaguely at a Ministry of Rites official.

The official stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the world is rude, etiquette cannot be abolished, even if it is the champion, you should also observe etiquette!"

Another official chimed in: "Yuwen Tuo, as the champion, does not set an example for all students, but despises the etiquette law and deserves to be punished!"

Mo Xiaolou disagreed, bowed to the east, and asked loudly: "Etiquette?

The official snorted coldly, bowed upward, and said contemptuously: "Don't you understand this? Naturally, there are three outlines and five constants: the emperor is sage, eloquent and strategic, and we will look forward to the emperor's horse; ”

Mo Xiaolou sharply interrupted the official's words: "Ridiculous! The so-called etiquette and religion do not mean to abide by outdated rules, but to formulate an appropriate code of conduct for the current society through the system of etiquette and religion. Now the treasury of the Great Sui is empty, the people are poor, and the saint is an example for the world, banning extravagance and waste. As soon as the wind of extravagance is eliminated, the people will be rich; when the people are rich, the state treasury will be full; if the state treasury is surplus, the civil and military will use their lives; and the civil and military will be holy!"

"The first major event after the succession of the Holy Lord was to open the Imperial Court, which showed the great ambition of the Holy Lord to break with tradition and pioneer innovation; As a pillar of the society, you don't do practical things, do some superficial work, and become a major minister of the Great Sui!"

The words were deafening, poking at the sore spots of the ministers in the palace like arrows, and these old fritters were embarrassed and silent. However, many new students seem to have gained a lot, and their eyes shine with excitement.

"Do you know how many hungry people in the Great Sui died of starvation during your feast, and how many border people in the north were bullied by foreigners?"

After a pause, Mo Xiaolou's voice turned cold: "Even in Luoyang, the eastern capital, there is a major event that almost shakes the country's foundation, you still don't know it, and you are still talking about etiquette and law here, which is ridiculous!"

Seeing that the ministers were so shocked by his righteous and stern speech that he was speechless for a while, he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and said loudly:

"The reason why the students didn't come to the banquet yesterday was actually to investigate a secret matter. ”

Yang Guang was observing everyone's interesting expressions, and when he heard him, he was even more interested, and asked, "What's the secret?"

Mo Xiaolou bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the student is suspicious, Yu Culture and Fornication are in turmoil!
