Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

In the next few days, I went through several twists and turns, and finally I was able to go to class normally. Not long after class started, everyone discovered that the content of their lessons was different from that of Jinlan and Yinju.

Here they learn abacus, academic mathematics, and how to manage business, while the Jinlan and Yinju students learn how to combine the economy and national strength, and how to regulate the national economic activities through the above policies.

To put it bluntly, they learned how to be businessmen, while Jin Lan and Yin Ju learned politics.

"Haven't you seen it yet? We all are useless. When the selection comes, the only people who can be selected are Jinlan and Baiju." Xu Wenlan said while packing up the books.

Xing Yi didn't say anything. She had already seen the situation in the academy. This time when Xiu Mu returned to the palace, she would have a good talk with her mother.

"Anyway, I won't come back when I go home this time." A female student said, "I thought that girls from ordinary families like us could get ahead, but it seems like a fool's errand."

"Are you giving up now?" Xu Wenlan frowned, "We have to make a fuss!"

"Can you still make trouble with the court?"

"Since the imperial court has established a Ministry of Commerce and a business school, it should be fair and just. Now it is not fair at all, so of course we can make trouble."

"I don't dare to cause trouble for my family."

The female student packed up her books, waved to Xing Yi and Wei Shu, and walked out.

"No, I have to persuade her again."

Xu Wenlan said, carrying her schoolbag and chasing the female student.

Wei Shu shook her head and smiled, then turned to look at Xingyi, "Is your family coming to pick you up?"

Xingyi nodded, "My mother will send someone over, what about you?"

"My mother...she probably doesn't remember that today is my day to take a bath." Wei Shu smiled bitterly, and then said with relief: "I just go back by myself, it's not like I don't know the way home."

"Let's go, I'll take you home first."

Xingyi took Wei Shu's arm and pushed her out.

Xingyi thought it would be Feng Zheng or Jiang Yuan coming to pick her up, but he didn't expect to see his younger brother and Li Xiuyuan when he went out. Xingyi's eyes widened and he hurriedly ran forward.

"Why did you come out?"

He is the emperor, how can he leave the palace casually?

Qin Yan smiled, "I'm not a prisoner, so I can't go out?"

"But..." Xingyi looked around, "It's so dangerous outside."

"It's not dangerous. Besides, there are secret guards everywhere." Qin Yan said, rubbing Xing Yi's head, "I can use your light to go out and get some fresh air."

Xing Yi patted Qin Yan's hand and slapped his forehead with his backhand, "Don't be too big or too small."

"Tch, you were just born a little earlier than me."

"So I am your sister and you are still my brother. This is fate!"

The two siblings chatted and laughed for a while, and then Xingyi remembered that there was someone else beside him. He patted his forehead and hurriedly pulled Wei Shu to his side.

"Do you still remember Wei Shu, the daughter of General Wei?"

There were so many people outside that Wei Shu didn't dare to salute, so she had to bend down and say hello in a low voice.

Qin Yan nodded, "I remember, but the last time Miss Wei and I met was probably five or six years ago. I followed General Wei to Lingnan to fight, and Miss Wei went to see him off, but General Wei went first, so Miss Wei went Ask me to bring a bag of osmanthus honey cakes made by myself to General Wei."

Hearing this, Li Xiuyuan interjected: "That cake is so delicious."

Qin Yan turned around and glared at Li Xiuyuan, and then said to Wei Shu sheepishly: "Well, because we were hungry on the road, we ate two pieces." Wei Shu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "It doesn't matter, it was just for you. Food for everyone.”

"Yes, we are all friends." Xingyi hugged Wei Shu and looked at his brother, "If you want to come out for some air, then we can return to the palace later and go to Tianxiang Tower for a meal first, okay?"

Qin Yan nodded, "Okay."

Xingyi said to Wei Shu again: "Sister Shu, let's go together."

"I am still……"

"You also said that your mother didn't know that you had a rest today, so it's okay to go home later. Besides, my brother is usually very stingy, and there are not many opportunities to kill him."

Qin Yan snorted, "I thought you were treating me."

"When I go to the academy this time, I don't have much money with me. I've already used it up."

"I didn't bring any money either."

After saying that, the siblings looked at each other, and then turned to look at Li Xiuyuan next to them.

Li Xiuyuan looked helpless, "I don't have much salary, so I let you cheat me."

Qin Yan smiled, "I'll pay you back later."

After joking for a while, Qin Yan looked at Wei Shu and said, "Miss Wei, come with us. We will take you home later."

Now that Qin Yan said this, Wei Shu couldn't be coy anymore.

When he was about to leave, Qingdai ran over.

"Sir, I bought a golden roll. It's still warm. Please try one quickly."

Seeing Qingdai running in a hurry, Qin Yan asked her to slow down and said, "Put it away. I plan to take it home for my mother to eat."

Qingdai pouted, "But in order to let the young master eat something hot, I ran two streets."

"Then I'll try one."

Qingdai immediately smiled and hurriedly opened the paper bag and gave it to Qin Yan.

Xingyi saw Qingdai picking up one and feeding it directly to Qin Yan's mouth. Fortunately, Qin Yan refused and took it himself.

"Qing Dai, didn't you see me?" Xing Yi said in a bad tone.

Qingdai turned to look at Xingyi, as if she had just seen him, and saluted hurriedly.

"This slave indeed didn't see it. Please forgive me, princess."

"Oh, it turns out it's because of bad eyesight."

She is not very old, but she is very thoughtful.

Being able to follow Qin Yan back to the palace from the southwest, and to come to Qin Yan's side from the Department of Teaching and Learning, to give Qin Yan special treatment, and to even take him with him when he leaves the palace, shows his scheming.

And her brother also enjoyed the food very much, praising the delicious gold silk rolls bought by Qingdai.

"Really? Then let me and Sister Shu have a taste."

Saying that, Xingyi took the paper bag from Qingdai's hand. (End of chapter)
