Chapter 77 Reconciliation
"Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites was arrested in order to prevent the exam questions from being leaked to Xihuang, so we are going to make a new one. To be on the safe side, we asked Ye Wei to call the Imperial Forest Army to guard."

After listening to Shen Mengqi's explanation, Lin Jihan gritted his teeth, "Ye Wei!"

"My lord, I was wrong!"

"So, my lord, you came here just for such an unreasonable thing?"

Lin Jihan glared at Ye Wei fiercely, then looked at Shen Mengqi who was watching the show, and said with some embarrassment: "This king just thought you were kidnapped, so he brought the army here for training."

Seeing Lin Jihan standing in front of him with an awkward expression, Shen Mengqi's mood inexplicably improved a little.

"Oh, if you don't bring the army, I thought the Taifu's mansion should be the safest place under the imperial city."

Hearing Shen Mengqi's joke, Lin Jihan's face was a little uneasy, he turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment the corner of his clothes was grabbed by the person behind him.

"Since you're all here, do you want to practice more thoroughly?"

The soft voice made Lin Jihan stop and look back, and Shen Mengqi's smiling eyes came into his eyes, "If the regent is not busy, do you want to take the army to guard here for three days?"

Shen Mengqi's showing weakness warmed Lin Jihan's heart. Although his face was still cold and fierce, his words were much gentler, "Since the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has kindly invited you, then this king will stand guard here for the Yulin Army." Last three days."

These business-like words made Shen Mengqi laugh. This person said that he was a child all day long, but he made more troubles than he looked at children.

"Then dare to ask the regent, can your bodyguard Ye Wei still be ordered by me?"

When Shen Mengqi called herself the Regent, Lin Jihan frowned indiscernibly, "It's up to you."

Shen Mengqi let go of Lin Jihan's hand, and walked slowly in front of Ye Wei.Ye Wei, who was still kneeling on the ground, immediately lowered his body when he saw her approaching.

"Your Highness, I know I was wrong."

Shen Mengqi didn't blame him at all, "Can you shoot birds?"

Although Ye Wei didn't know why Shen Mengqi asked such a question, he replied truthfully: "Yes."

Shen Mengqi pointed to the sky above her head and said: "This princess will give you a chance to pay off your merits, but all the birds that fly out of the Taifu's mansion, no matter if they are pigeons or crows, will be killed by this princess."

Ye Wei couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, is the Tai Tuo treating you badly?"

"Ok?"

"Otherwise, why would you even kill all the birds in other people's yards?"

Shen Mengqi said: "What did you say?"

Seeing Lin Jihan's horrifying eyes swept over, Ye Wei immediately went down, "No, the little one knows, please don't worry, Your Highness, let alone the birds, the little one won't let go of even the ants that crawl out of!"

Seeing Ye Wei's appearance, Shen Mengqi knew that he would be wrong, but she didn't bother to explain, she just dragged Lin Jihan into the house.

Inside the house, the Taifu and Mu Qiancheng were a little surprised when they saw Lin Jihan coming.

"My lord, why are you here?"

"Prince Regent, you are here."

Lin Ji said coldly: "Sir, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, please invite me to guard these three days."

"Hey, didn't she say to invite the Imperial Forest Army?" Mu Qiancheng looked at Lin Jihan with a knowing look and said, "My lord, when did you become the Imperial Forest Army? You can be considered demoted."

Lin Jihan gave Mu Qiancheng a hard look, "You're the only one who talks too much? You don't have to start a new question?"

At this time, the Taifu frowned seriously and said, "Letting the regent guard it is too much talent, is this the emperor's order?"

Seeing that both Shen Mengqi and Lin Jihan avoided answering, Mu Qiancheng looked at the show and said to the Tai Tuo: "How could the emperor make such an order? The regent is not here to guard the question, he is clearly here to guard people."

Looking at the uncomfortable Lin Jihan and Shen Mengqi, the Taifu looked suddenly enlightened.

"Aw~ Got it"

This young couple has just been married for a few months, and it is the time when honey is mixed with oil, so they are not willing to separate.

Taifu said cheerfully: "This prince and His Royal Highness are really enviable as husband and wife. I have to say, it's nice to be young."

These words made Lin Jihan feel extremely at ease, and the hostility that had been lingering between his brows gradually melted away, and his whole person seemed much softer.

Shen Mengqi let go of the hand that was holding Lin Jihan's sleeve, and beckoned Lin Jihan to sit down beside her. She looked at Taifu and asked, "Teacher, have you finished your exam questions?"

The Taifu spread out a small note in front of everyone, and there was an impressive sentence written on it: The way of great learning lies in Ming Mingde, in being close to the people, and in ending in the ultimate goodness and righteousness.

This is an essay question that appears on the imperial examination almost every one or two years.

Mu Qiancheng shook his head with a smile and said: "No wonder Tai Fu has peaches and plums all over the world, this question is too kind."

Tai Tu stroked his gray mustache and said with a smile: "Don't underestimate this question, our Tianyuan Kingdom has put more emphasis on martial arts than literature in recent years, and most of the students can't answer this question!"

After Taifu finished speaking, Lin Jihan frowned, "Isn't that the tragedy of Tianyuan Kingdom?"

"This"

Seeing that the Taifu was in trouble, Mu Qiancheng made a proper rescue and said: "There are not many people recruited in the imperial examinations every year, as long as the rest are high-quality products, don't worry, with me and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials here, This year's exam questions will definitely not be easy."

Shen Mengqi also nodded, she looked at the Taifu and said, "In this case, leave the rest to the three of us, Taifu, you can go to rest, take good care of yourself for a while, and wait for the imperial examination to start." Yes, but some of you are busy."

"Hey~ It's still the Minister of the Ministry of Officials who will hurt the old man, so I will go to rest first, and I will trouble you for the rest."

After the Grand Tutor left, Lin Jihan looked at Shen Mengqi and said, "I told Ye Wei to catch birds outside the courtyard and sent the Grand Tutor away on purpose, what are you doubting?"

"It's nothing, I just think it's better to believe it than to believe it. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. It's better to plan in advance."

Mu Qiancheng looked at Shen Mengqi, and he exaggeratedly said: "No way, Taifu is a veteran of the three dynasties, he has taught the emperor, and you princes and princesses, you even doubt him?"

Mu Qiancheng said that Shen Mengqi was too suspicious. He looked at Lin Jihan, trying to find resonance from Lin Jihan, but unexpectedly got the same answer from Lin Jihan.

"He is indeed a bit strange. Except for the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, all the students he taught were not very good at school. On the contrary, they are all better at playing than the dandies in the city, and they have a special liking for birds. It's not God Bless Tianyuan."

Lin Jihan didn't finish his words, but the rest of what he wanted to express was self-evident.

Mu Qiancheng wanted to refute a few sentences, but found that everything he said was correct, so he couldn't refute at all, but
He glanced at Shen Mengqi who was still standing aside, and growled at Lin Jihan: "You are questioning the royal family, are you crazy?"
