Zhen Daxueshi stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, not bad, responsible, this is what a man of my Zhen family should be like."

After that, he said unhappily, "You can't learn from your father. All the knowledge in your head is in vain, and you travel around all day without going home."

Zhen Daxueshi didn't mean that he wanted his son to enter the palace as an official, but that he wanted him to teach well in a private school and spend more time with his wife when he was free.

Lady Zhen was busy preparing the betrothal gifts these days, and she often talked about her eldest son and his eldest daughter-in-law.

Zhen Jingxiu smiled, "My second aunt is helping to take care of the family, so my parents are relieved. Sister Lanzhi will be a 15-year-old in a year, and my grandmother is teaching her how to be a housekeeper."

"Okay, don't smooth things over for your father. When you go home for the New Year, I won't let him go out next year. You pack up and let the housekeeper take you to the palace tomorrow."

There are also former students of Zhen Daxueshi in the Imperial Academy, so he is not worried about anything.

With Zhen Jingxiu's current talent, it is not a problem to pass the imperial examination.

The night sky is full of stars, like rubies inlaid in the sky, beautiful and mysterious.

The lights in the palace are brilliant, and the palace lanterns in the palace and corridors are lit, like a flickering warm ribbon, making the entire palace bright and warm.

In the imperial garden, the air is filled with a faint fragrance of flowers, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Under a palace wall in the harem, three slender figures jumped onto the palace wall and disappeared on the top of the wall in an instant.

In a cup of tea, three figures came to the backyard of Jiang's mansion.

They jumped in together.

"Who!"

The sound of scolding and drawing swords suddenly sounded.

"Gao Mu, Cang Yun, stop it, the master is here."

As soon as the three landed, Gao Mu and Cang Yun didn't see the person clearly, and they were about to chop him with their swords.

Hearing the voices of Xiang Yang and Xiang Song, the two hurriedly stopped.

"Your Majesty, I didn't know that the emperor was coming, and I didn't welcome him from afar. I hope the emperor will forgive me!" Gao Mu and Cang Yun sheathed their swords and knelt down to salute.

"No need to be polite, where does Sui Sui live? Lead the way." Xiao Jingzhao raised his hand, without blaming the two.

The three of them were wearing night clothes, and the corner of the courtyard wall was dark. Anyone who saw someone climbing over the wall would also draw a sword at them.

The two were able to find them in the first time and attack quickly, which shows that they are very competent. With them protecting Sui Sui, Xiao Jingzhao was still quite relieved.

Gao Mu and Cang Yun passed by Xingyue Courtyard while patrolling just now, and knew that the young lady and Sui Sui were playing chess in the flower hall.

To be precise, the young lady was playing chess with Master Nangong, and Sui Sui was watching and occasionally helping to make a move.

For some reason, Gao Mu felt a little guilty.

He nudged Cang Yun with his elbow, and Cang Yun felt that Gao Mu's behavior was inexplicable.

Cang Yun stepped aside and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, please come forward. Sui Sui is learning to play chess in Xingyue Courtyard."

Xiao Jingzhao walked forward, followed by Xiang Song and Xiang Yang.

Gao Mu was hesitating behind.

In Xinyue Courtyard, Nangong Zeyue and Jiang Shuyue were playing chess while telling her about what happened in the grain shop today.

"Shuyue, now that the price of rice has dropped, can you ask someone to send some rice to the shop?" Nangong Zeyue pointed to the chessboard, and Sui Sui picked up the black piece in front of him and put it on.

Many people who bought grains also wanted to buy some rice, and many people asked.

"Well, wait a little longer, we don't want to make much money, as long as it is stable." Jiang Shuyue calculated that her business with no capital would make money no matter how it was sold.

Nangong Zeyue didn't know that after returning home today, he roughly calculated that after deducting the monthly salary of the shopkeeper and the servant, and then deducting the cost, there was almost no profit.

Jiang Shuyue was thinking about other things in her mind, and she was not careful that one of the white pieces was eaten by Sui Sui. "

"Mother, it doesn't matter if you lose, try a piece of osmanthus cake."

"Uncle Nangong, you should also have a piece, it's fragrant and sticky, but it's delicious."

Xiao Jingzhao came to the outside of the flower hall and saw a happy picture.

"Ahem..."

"Miss, the emperor is here."

Jiang Shuyue was startled, what is this guy doing here?

"See the emperor! "

Faced with this uninvited guest, Nangong Zeyue did not dare to neglect him and quickly stood up and knelt.

"Your Highness!" Jiang Shuyue was about to salute, but Xiao Jingzhao looked at Suisui, "No need to salute, help your mother sit down."

Xiao Jingzhao had been influenced by his father since he was a child, and his father asked them to treat their mother in the same way.

Suisui jumped up from the futon when he saw his father coming.

"Daddy! Suisui thought you didn't want me anymore after you became the emperor."

Suisui jumped up and rushed towards Xiao Jingzhao, who squatted down and hugged Suisui in his arms.

"Nonsense, when did Dad ever say he didn't want Suisui anymore? "When saying this, Xiao Jingzhao looked at Nangong Zeyue.

Nangong Zeyue: "..." What does it have to do with me?

The father and son met again after a long time, and Suisui kept asking questions.

Jiang Shuyue seemed to know that Xiao Jingzhao would say no need to be polite, so she sat back quickly.

Nangong Zeyue stood aside. It was not right for him to leave without the emperor's words, and it was even more inappropriate to sit down. He just stood there stupidly.

Qiuju came after hearing the news, and quickly retreated after paying her respects. She was going to prepare tea and cakes.

"Daddy, you are the emperor now. Mother said that there are many rules in the palace. Suisui wants to go to the palace for a stroll, okay?"

Suisui put her arms around Xiao Jingzhao's neck and acted coquettishly.

He was very curious. Aunt Qiuju said that the scenery in the palace was beautiful, and even the flowers and plants in the imperial garden were unique. This aroused the curiosity of the little guy.

"Well, people will laugh at you if you don't follow the rules, but that's just for others to see. When there are no outsiders, Sui Sui can be himself."

Xiao Jingzhao is a man of both civil and military talents. He hates red tape the most. Being in a high position means you have to get used to those things, and he is slowly adapting to them.

When he heard the word "outsider", Nangong Zeyue couldn't help but identify himself with it.

He pretended to be calm and looked at Jiang Shuyue, who smiled at him.

Jiang Shuyue's smile was like a spring breeze, and Nangong Zeyue's discomfort disappeared instantly.

The expressions of the two did not escape Xiao Jingzhao's sharp eyes.

Gao Mu, who was standing outside the door, also saw it clearly.

Cang Yun stood in the distance and looked up at the sky as if nothing had happened.

Xiang Song and Xiang Yang were also waiting outside the door, looking into the flower hall from time to time.

"Hmph! Slutty fox." Xiang Yang snorted and muttered.

"Ah! Who are you talking about?" Xiang Song was worried that Xiang Yang might say something wrong, so he quickly dragged him to a place farther away from the flower hall.

"Who else could it be? Didn't you see that when the master was talking to Master Sui Sui, that pretty boy was still flirting with Miss Jiang? He has a pair of fox eyes, what else could he be but a slutty fox?"

Xiang Yang was filled with righteous indignation, and was indignant. The master was now the emperor, and Miss Jiang was the master's woman, and she would definitely enter the palace in the future.

That guy was always around the girl and paying attention to her. If he continued like this, the foundation of the palace wall would be dug down by him.

Xiang Song pinched Xiang Yang's arm fiercely, "We don't understand anything now, so don't talk nonsense."
