Farmhouse Imperial Examination Road

Chapter 209 Goodbye, I'm the Monarch

As the boy left, the oppressive feeling in the air finally dissipated a bit.

Concubine Shu breathed a sigh of relief, because her heart was happy, her walking pace felt a lot lighter.

Came out of the secret passage, changed into pajamas, and was about to go to bed, but at this moment, the maid on duty quickly knocked on the door of the bedroom.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is angry again and is calling you over."

Concubine Shu's stunning eyebrows frowned, a trace of disgust flashed across her face, and then said lightly:
"understood."

The maids from the outer hall flocked into the door, Concubine Shu put on luxurious palace attire without any makeup, and felt like the emperor's bedroom.

As soon as he entered the door, the old emperor was obviously very angry.

And the person who is lowering his head and kneeling is the celebrity next to the old emperor, Mr. Lin Xunlin.

Concubine Shu frowned.

Aren't these two people always good?
That Lin Xun is the most sacred person, why?
She walked in slowly, and Lin Xun didn't shy away from it, and said directly:

"Your Majesty, please calm down, the construction of Chaohua Pavilion will start sooner or later."

Chaohua Pavilion?
Concubine Shu remembered.

A few days ago, the old emperor favored another court lady, loved it very much, and even ordered to build a Huxin Pavilion, but now the palace is just a sham, where is the money?

"Wait, wait, when will I wait!"

"The palace test! Your majesty, after the palace test, I will arrange it for you. I have something to be confirmed recently."

"Then hurry up, I'll wait for you."

"The minister obeys the order."

Once the examination list is released, five days later, it will be the hall selection.

The emperor personally drafted the examination questions.

The difference from the general examination is that this time, only one policy theory will be tested.

The examination room was set up in the palace, and people entered the palace at the time of mao, and after dusk, the number of Jinshi was selected.

In March, it is mostly drizzle, and the capital city is shrouded in a haze in the morning.

Although the weather was cold, the enthusiasm of the crowd remained undiminished.

Today, their little Sanyuan in South China is about to enter the palace, and they may become the number one scholar of Liuyuan and No. [-].

How could they not be excited, how could they not be apprehensive!

Master Yuan's firecrackers were all ready, and they were laid out from outside the main gate of the palace to the south city, a mighty one.

Not only that, but the restaurants around the main street were also fully occupied by the people of the capital.

Like a festival, it is lively and boiling.

There was a lot of people outside, but for the first time, the atmosphere in the small courtyard of the Su family was extraordinarily heavy.

"Liuyu, after this, you need to be cautious in your words and deeds in everything, and take it slow. If you encounter difficulties, you can discuss it with the master, and you can't act on your own."

Shen Huaizhou crowned Su Liuyu, and spoke slowly in a clear voice, patiently and cautiously.

Su Liuyu looked at Shen Huaizhou from the mirror.

"In the future, will there be a chance to live with the master?"

Su Liuyu met Shen Huaizhou when she was ten years old.

He had to teach for three years.

From the small courtyard at the foot of Qinshan Academy to the capital, the two lived together.

Entering the palace, the procedures for entering the palace are complicated, and it is no longer like it is now. Turn around the corridor and open the door to see it.

Shen Huaizhou inserted the jade hairpin into her bundle of hair and smiled.

"I want to see you, just call me."

"Master, can't you live in the palace?"

"It's out of courtesy."

Shen Huaizhou looked at the jade-like young boy in the mirror, and exclaimed: "Brother Yu has really grown up."

It's rare for him to call her so intimately, brother's address is like a baby name, at this moment when he calls her like this, Su Liuyu feels a little uncomfortable.

"It's getting late, let's go."

Shen Huaizhou patted her on the shoulder and went out first.

Outside the courtyard gate, Prime Minister Song and Lin Xiuyun were already waiting.

Lin Xiuyun didn't sleep last night, so she was naturally informed of today's arrangements, so she was so worried that she couldn't sleep, and her eyes were blue now.

Seeing Su Liuyu approaching, she couldn't help but hurried over.

"I've worn enough clothes, but my hands are still so cold, do you want to soak in a hot pot?"

"Mother, I'm not cold." Su Liuyu hugged Lin Xiuyun, signaling her not to worry: "I'll take you home when Brother Yu comes back."

Lin Xiuyun's eyes turned red in an instant, she didn't even need to say a few words, and then said: "When your business is completed, mother is going to take my sister back to Lingnan, and when it is free, mother will come to see you."

what!
Su Liuyu was taken aback.

Hastily opened his mouth.

"Mother, you have to go!" She quickly grabbed Lin Xiuyun's arm: "Mother, wait for brother Yu to come back to pick you up, you can't go, you have to go, you have to go to me"

It was the first time Lin Xiuyun saw her son look scared, she felt sore, and quickly comforted her.

"Alright, alright, mom won't leave, Brother Yu has something important to do, it can't be too late."

Su Liuyu checked it carefully several times, and got Lin Xiuyun's guarantee, so she was relieved.

After everyone carefully instructed them again, Shen Huaizhou took her and Song Yanzhi into the carriage.

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Prime Minister Song staggered and walked to the carriage.

Su Liuyu got out of the car quickly.

"gentlemen."

Prime Minister Song took out an oil-paper bag from his pocket, and handed it to her with a smile on his old face.

"Yesterday, I went to Babaozhai to buy some red bean cakes. You always like to eat this. When you were young, others held you, and you made trouble for a long time."

Red bean crisps?
She doesn't like sweets.

Anyone who knows her knows this.

However, she didn't think much about it, it should have happened before she was ten years old.

It's hard for the old man to remember.

She put the oiled paper bag in her arms and saluted.

"Thank you sir, I'm leaving then."

"Okay, okay." Prime Minister Song looked at her with gratified eyes and couldn't help nodding.

The carriage moved slowly again.

In Su Liuyu's heart, it felt like a stone was pressed down, dull and dull.

The sky slowly brightened.

The sky was cloudy with drizzle and the wind was bitingly cold.

After getting off the carriage, Su Liuyu couldn't help shaking her body.

Shen Huaizhou closed her cloak and lowered her voice.

"General Yuan Ge has already made arrangements to enter the palace, and the civil servants have also greeted him. No one questioned him. Once he enters the Golden Palace, he will announce it in public."

Su Liuyu nodded, looked at the vermilion palace wall in front of her, and then at Shen Huaizhou.

"Master, I'm leaving."

Shen Huaizhou smiled warmly and pushed Su Liuyu towards the palace wall door:
"Go."

Goodbye here, it is the monarch and minister.

The rain and mist fell on Shen Huaizhou's forehead, and he stood in the rain like this, watching her turn around and walk slowly towards the palace gate.

One step, two steps, three steps.

He sighed inwardly, turned around, and couldn't bear to look any further.

But at this moment, I just felt a tightness behind my waist, encircled his hand, hugged him hard, and immediately let go.

"Master, I'm really leaving."

He was slightly dazed, and in the blink of an eye, he would have already run away.

"This temperament is becoming more and more naughty."

He shook his head. This time, he personally watched her enter the palace gate and receive the number plate, so he was relieved and got into the carriage.

In the carriage, Shi'an had already warmed up the tea.

Saw him come in.

He said again: "Young master, don't worry, Brother Yu will come back safely."

"Go to the mansion and wait for the news. The world of Wei is finally about to change."
