After marrying a concubine, I have the ability to read minds

Chapter 444
Mrs. Gu was squeezed in the crowd, so she could only keep a faint smile, so as not to be rude in front of others, her daughter was right, these people didn't come to congratulate her son for winning the prize, they clearly missed her son.

……

After finally waiting for the guests to disperse, the whole family was exhausted and paralyzed. Gu Xian said directly, "Even if Mingxi won the first prize in the imperial examination, I will not hold this banquet any more. It is too tiring to deal with these guests."

Usually when he went to court, he didn't see how much those courtiers treated him, and he didn't even say a word to many people, but when his son had something to do, all those people came to the door.

Once Zhong Jieyuan, once Huiyuan, if there is another champion banquet, he doubts that his old arms and legs will not be able to hold on.

"Okay, okay, don't feel wronged, if there is no son-in-law here today, how long will those guests have to drink?

Also, there are dozens of tables of banquets. Fortunately, the son-in-law sent someone to set things up in advance, otherwise, the dishes would not be served. "

On the day of great joy, if there is really no food to serve at the banquet, then it will be fun.

Ye Hanyu hurriedly said politely, "This is all as it should be. Besides, I just gave an order, and the servants will naturally take care of the matter."

Gu Mingxi said: "Don't say anything, I asked someone to make a few dishes again, let's go back to the room to rest after a quick bite, tomorrow, there may be guests coming to the door."

Those who came today were all officials from the same court as his father, and his friends will definitely come to visit tomorrow.

Moreover, several of his friends are also on the list, and he will also go to their homes to congratulate them.

Ye Hanyu said casually: "Tomorrow's food and drink will be prepared by us. My uncle and father-in-law can just entertain the guests."

Gu Wanning said: "Then eat first, parents and you are busy entertaining guests, so you don't have anything to eat at night."

Gu Xian didn't refute. He drank a lot of water at night and didn't have a chance to eat at all. He was really hungry.

After dinner, it was impossible for Gu Wanning and the two to return to the palace, so they naturally slept in her courtyard.

……

In the palace, the emperor looked at Gu Mingxi's policy questionnaire and was full of admiration, "I really didn't expect that Gu Aiqing is a talent, and his son is not far behind. It is not uncommon to pass the exam. After all, there are only references from the capital. The test was attended by people from all over the country, and he was able to win the membership in one fell swoop, which was really beyond my expectation.

Look at the writing of this article, it has something to say, and the writing is sophisticated, it really doesn't look like it was written by a 20-year-old boy. "

Li Changhai followed the emperor's words and complimented: "Maybe, Mr. Gu can become the only civil and military champion in the Daxing Dynasty!"

The emperor suddenly laughed: "Tell me, if he really wins three yuan in a row and wins the champion of martial arts, should I let him be my imperial editor, or my first-rank bodyguard?"

Li Changhai: ...that's true, not a good choice.

Compared with the first-rank imperial guards of the third rank and the sixth-rank Xiuzhuan, the difference in official rank is too big, that is, there are seven small ranks, three and a half major ranks.

After a while, the emperor muttered again: "Lao Liu's long history should also be arranged."

Li Changhai: ... If he didn't know that the emperor would definitely not cheat Mr. Gu, he would have thought that the emperor wanted Mr. Gu to be Prince Yu's long history!
……

Two days after the exam results were released, another major event happened in the court.

The right servant of the Ministry of Rites was reported for hiding gold wares for sacrificial offerings. The emperor ordered people to search the mansion of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. As a result, a total of 130 gold and silver wares used in various sacrifices were found. In addition, official silver was also found. More than 40 taels.

And the right servant of the Ministry of Rites still couldn't tell the way out of the huge sum of more than 40 taels, so the right servant of the Ministry of Rites was sent to prison that day.

A few days after the corruption case of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, something happened to the official department. It is Lord Chu, the right servant of the former Ministry of War.

Why "Yuan", because he failed the assessment a few days ago, so he became a doctor of the Ministry of War.

He never figured out why he was downgraded. During the assessment, he asked, everyone had the same questions, and his answers were quite satisfactory, and he usually worked hard when he was on business. They are all very high. He doesn't talk about promotion, at least it's okay to keep it as it is, but he was demoted.

And his seat was taken by a paratrooper.

This person is Yuan Xiang's father, Yuan Zhifu.

The defendant's Minister of the Ministry of Officials only felt that he had died unjustly.

The conscience of heaven and earth, the arrangement of Yuan Zhifu was personally confessed by the crown prince, dare he not do it?
It turned out that the prince wanted to arrange Mr. Yuan to the Ministry of Households, but because there was no suitable position, he set his sights on the Ministry of War again. Just when Mr. Chu was demoted, the position of the right servant was vacated, and Yuan Zhifu became The right servant of the Ministry of War.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials also questioned, is it inappropriate for the magistrate of the fourth rank to suddenly become the right servant of the Ministry of War?
The prince's reasons are very good. The magistrate Yuan is a talent, so he was promoted by the emperor without taking care of his lord?We can't be too restrictive.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials can only let Yuan Zhifu take over the lack of the right servant of the Ministry of War.

The prince saw that the affairs of Yuan Zhifu had been exposed by someone, and he was very nervous, but after the tension passed, he quickly calmed down again. He wanted to see it very much. His father knew that Yuan Zhifu belonged to him. Will it break his face?

The emperor did not express his opinion that day, but handed over the matter to King Chen for investigation.

After returning to Chaoyang Palace, the emperor seemed to be in a good mood. Not long after Li Changhai served the emperor a cup of tea, King Chen came.

"Brother Huang, what kind of result do you want for this matter?"

The emperor took a sip of his tea, and just about to speak, he saw a little eunuch looking around at the gate of the hall, and he knew that he was looking for someone.

"What does it look like to poke your head, let him come up and talk."

Li Changhai gave the little eunuch a hard look, and then called him into the hall.

The little eunuch also knew that he had been rude just now, so he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "The emperor spares your life, this servant is also in a hurry, and the little chestnut can't get up all of a sudden, the manager once told the little one, if the little chestnut feels unwell, you must go to bed first." Notify the manager in a short while, the little ones don't dare to neglect, so..."

The tea cup in the emperor's hand was placed heavily on the imperial case, and Li Changhai gasped.

The parrot sent by the prince needs someone to take care of it. Li Changhai specially found a small chestnut with a strong body. To be honest, he didn’t spend so much effort on finding a replacement parrot, but it’s over. After a few months, that little chestnut suddenly couldn't get out of bed!
