Just a few days after Gu Changfeng returned to court, the censors took action against the young Gu Changli.

While she cried that the harem must be occupied, she also said that the mourning period was over, that the harvest was good this year, and that they should be even more happy. She gave all the reasons she could think of and didn't leave any chance for others.

Finally, the emperor got annoyed and waved his hand, "Master..."

"Your Majesty! What if you take two concubines?"

Gu Changli: "Okay."

Ministers: “…”???

"According to my age, I am also old enough to marry. Why don't I listen to the Master and marry two noble ladies?"

The Grand Tutor did not expect the little emperor to be so obedient and looked at Gu Changfeng suspiciously.

Gu Changfeng smiled and said, "Taifu, why are you looking at me? Didn't the emperor already agree?"

Gu Changli on the dragon throne laughed, "So the Grand Tutor is worried that I won't agree, hahahaha."

The master sweated in embarrassment, "Then this talent show..."

"Why not do it at the end of the year? I don't want a big event. If you have any recommendations, please tell Eunuch Li and send the portrait to the palace. This matter ends here..."

After the court session, Gu Changfeng was stopped by Zhou Ling before he even got into the sedan chair.

"Sir Shangshu, why is this happening?" Gu Changfeng asked him while secretly asking Xiao Wo what he wanted to do.

Zhou Ling naturally had a recommended candidate, and his tone was gentle: "Sir, it's not about the emperor's marriage. You are familiar with the emperor, so you must know what kind of person he likes. Why not tell me in advance..."

Gu Changfeng could already feel a lot of eyes looking at him from behind. Although he had been involved with the Ministry of Rites, he was unwilling to make this known. In order to avoid being gossiped about by others and spread to the emperor, he slapped Zhou Ling's hand away and said sternly:

"Since when did you start trying to figure out the emperor's thoughts? I don't know anything about this."

After saying this, he no longer paid attention to Zhou Ling and followed Zhao Si back to the palace.

The weather was getting cold, so Gu Changfeng assigned a groom to Zhao Si and asked Zhao Si to ride back with him.

Zhao Si was his confidant. He looked at him anxiously and whispered, "Why did the prince criticize the Minister of Rites in front of so many people? I just saw him angrily scold the official who came to talk to him."

Gu Changfeng closed his eyes. "He deserves it. The most taboo thing in the court is to guess the emperor's preferences. He has been an official for so many years and still speaks like this. I really suspect he did it on purpose."

"That's fine, that's fine. During the Wanshou Festival, I heard someone say that our palace and the Ministry of Rites were getting close. Now we can dispel the rumors."

"Please help me deliver a letter to Zhou Ling's home. I still have to do this favor, but I can't let anyone else catch me."

Zhao Si was stunned. "Ah?"

Gu Changfeng looked at him and suddenly curled his lips, "I said, you write it, just use a carrier pigeon."

"Oh, oh, so this is what the prince meant... The person who came over just now said that he wanted to apologize to the prince in person."

"Well, it's okay. Just tell the Master. I understand."

The carriage swayed slowly to Prince Yong's Mansion. Just as Gu Changfeng got off the carriage, he vaguely heard Xiao Wo's voice.

[Host, what did you just say? ]

Gu Changfeng and Xiao Wo have been together for almost two months. He has already figured out what this unreliable system is like. He said speechlessly, "It's okay. Go to sleep. You guys are working very hard."

[Sorry, we have flexible working hours.] Xiao Wo's voice was very tired, [Zhou Ling is just here to test you this time, whether you are really willing to stand on the same team with him. In fact, he already knows what kind of women the emperor likes, he likes good-looking ones. Among the fourteen beauties this time, only his adopted daughter and the daughter of the imperial tutor are barely good-looking.]

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier? Did I go too far just now?"

[It's okay. You have your own stand. You don't stand with anyone in public, but you can be close to him behind the scenes. When Zhou Ling receives your letter, he will no longer doubt you.]
