The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 691
In fact, at this moment, Yao Mengxian didn't even believe what she said.Something must have happened to Ji Yuying. The Tang family hasn't come back so far, so they should be dealing with the follow-up for Ji Yuying.

That's all for the sake of Confucian government's face!
Kong Shuhuan reluctantly smiled at Yao Mengxian. She was in a panic at the moment, but she couldn't tell Yao Mengxian about this matter, even if the two were good sisters.

Gu Chengyu is also waiting boredly, but the banquet is almost over.But the host's family hasn't come yet, Gu Chengyu can't leave even if he wants to.

Lu Chen's eyes flickered, and then he seemed to say something unintentionally, "I don't know who killed the people, but Jinyu thinks who put the aphrodisiac incense?"

Gu Chengyu frowned, Lu Chen didn't know what it meant?Why are you always acting so unpredictable?Don't you just want to say that he did it?

Ever since Lu Chen brought him to Prince Jing's mansion, he knew that this person approached him with impure purposes.It's just that he feels that he is a sixth-rank official, so what can others care about?
That day at Prince Jing's mansion, he was tricked into a beauty trick, isn't it Prince Jing's intention?What did Prince Jing see in him?
Gu Chengyu laughed at himself, could it be that he has seen his own potential?He couldn't help thinking pompously.

"I don't know, does Brother Lu know?" Gu Chengyu said casually.

Lu Chen smiled, "Jinyu is going back to his hometown tomorrow, right? This time it can be regarded as a return home, but it's a pity that I have lived so long and never left the capital!"

Gu Chengyu was terrified when he heard the words, this person also wants to go with him, right?But never.

"Brother Lu, it's not easy to see the cultural scenery outside the capital? It shouldn't be difficult for you to find a job outside the capital, right?"

Lu Chen really grinned this time, so genuinely that Gu Chengyu could even see the smile in his eyes.

"It's a pity that I have already found an errand in the capital, otherwise, as you said, it would be a good choice to go outside." Lu Chen's next words surprised Gu Chengyu a little.

"Oh? What kind of job did Brother Lu seek? Why haven't I heard from Brother Lu? I'm here to congratulate Brother Lu first."

No wonder the world is envious of these children of noble families, it is much easier for them to find jobs than those of officials.And the general position is not looked down on, how can this not be enviable?
Lu Chen smiled mysteriously, "Not many people know about this matter, but I can tell you first, it is a fourth-rank official position."

When Lu Chen spoke, the smell of alcohol met Gu Chengyu's side face, with a strong aroma of alcohol.

Gu Chengyu hurriedly turned his head to the side, talking as he spoke, why are they so close?
Glancing at Lu Chen's bright eyes, his brows were almost twisted into a twine, is he drunk?

"That's really congratulations, brother Lu, but too much alcohol can hurt your body, so brother Lu should drink less!"

Gu Chengyu originally wanted to inquire about Lu Chen's errand, but seeing Lu Chen's appearance, he probably drank a lot of wine, probably drunk, and he lost interest in an instant.

Lu Chen was taken aback when he heard the words, and then burst out laughing.

"I'm drinking well! I'm not drunk. Do you think I'm drunk and talking nonsense?"

Gu Chengyu was speechless for a while, could it be that Lu Chen was stimulated by something today?He suddenly thought of Prince Jing, could it be that he was abandoned at the end?He guessed maliciously in his heart, and looked at Lu Chen's expression strangely.

After Lu Chen laughed, he raised his face in a rare way, "Actually, it would be great if you could let it out."

Gu Chengyu was a little puzzled, let him go outside?What's the meaning?
While pouring the wine, Lu Chen said softly, "The crown prince will be established soon, and the capital will be in chaos soon."

Only then did Gu Chengyu remember that it was rumored that the emperor wanted to establish a crown prince, but recently there was no news, so he forgot about it.

Is the news brought by Lu Chen accurate?No!In fact, without Lu Chen's reminder, Gu Chengyu knew that it was imperative.

The current emperor's health is getting worse day by day, sooner or later he will have a crown prince.Coupled with the pressure from officials in the DPRK and China, it is impossible for the emperor to delay.

Who will the emperor choose?Favorite eldest prince?Or the second prince who is the eldest son?
As for the third prince, he always felt that it was too embarrassing to make use of both his tactics and his character.Before Wan Xuenian committed suicide, would the emperor have no idea?
The last King Jing, he thought that the emperor did not list him as a candidate for the crown prince.In other words, King Jing had already been kicked out of the game by the emperor.

But is Prince Jing willing?No!Prince Jing is not reconciled, so if the emperor chooses the crown prince, will Prince Jing resist?Whether Prince Jing made arrangements in private or not, he does not know.

And the other princes would not be reconciled, no wonder Lu Chen said that the capital was going to be in chaos.

Gu Chengyu suddenly thought of Lu Chen and Qin Min who were looking for errands at this time?Why didn't these two choose to avoid it?Why rush for an errand?
It seems that these two people are already in a team, otherwise they would not choose this stall to seek errands.

After thinking about this, Gu Chengyu knew that he must not participate in it.Otherwise, they may be involved in this torrent and become cannon fodder under the political game.

I don't know which team this Lu Chen is on, could it be Prince Jing?Gu Chengyu shook his head, none of this has anything to do with him, for now he just concentrates on being his pure minister.

It seems that you have to keep a little distance from Lu Chen in the future, otherwise it will be miserable if you are misunderstood as a faction.

By the time Gu Chengyu left the eldest princess's mansion, it was already more than an hour later.

Gu Chengyu let out a sigh of relief, why does something happen every time he attends such a banquet?Can't it go smoothly?

After receiving the return gift from the Princess' Palace, Gu Chengyu opened it and took a look.It turned out to be a painting, and there was a jade pendant and a topaz paperweight beside it.

Looking at the fineness of the paperweight and jade pendant, Gu Chengyu knew that these two things were not cheap, even expensive.

Gu Chengyu didn't open the painting, so he planned to open it when he got back to his house.The compartment is small, and if it is a precious calligraphy and painting, it will be easily damaged when it is opened.

This is an apology from the Princess Palace, which is very valuable.

And it was also a thank you gift for that painting, when the boy handed it over to him, he only conveyed his apology.But he knew that the painting he drew was dedicated to the empress.The eldest princess's mansion prides itself on strict rules, so naturally it would not take his paintings for nothing.

Although in the eyes of others, he also took advantage of it.But the eldest princess's mansion will not take advantage of him, let alone the family is not short of money.

"Jinyu! What are you doing so fast? You go back and wait. I want to tell my parents that I will go back to my hometown with you tomorrow."

Suddenly, a carriage caught up behind him, and Zhu Pang's voice was heard from that carriage.

Gu Chengyu shook his head and laughed, this guy is just too playful.
