Perhaps because he heard that the emperor was going to bestow marriages on this year's Jinshi, Cheng De has been feeling a little out of sorts these days.This is not to say how confident he is that he will be able to go to high school, but because he believes that no one knows the current situation of the court and the future direction better than him.Although he only had 31 short years in his last life, the extra 13 years of being a prophet are enough for him to take the imperial examination.

It was precisely because of this that Cheng De didn't understand what Xuan Ye's intention was.If Xuanye wanted him to pass the exam, would he really want to see himself marry a wife and have children?If he doesn't want to see himself marrying a wife and having children, then he is forcing himself to give up his fame by doing so!He didn't want him to become an official!Or is it simply the Queen Mother's will this time?Did the Empress Dowager find out that the two of them met in private to force Xuan Ye to give her a marriage?

Thinking of this, Cheng De shook his head.Judging from the current situation, Xuan Ye's imperial power is becoming more and more stable, and there are many concubines who have given birth to dragon sons in the harem of several major forces in the court. Even if the emperor really stops having children from now on, it will not shake the foundation of the country. How could a character like the empress dowager have trouble with a little Nalan Chengde?So Chengde guessed that this matter was mostly Xuan Ye's attention.

But because of preparing for the general examination and palace examination, Xuanye and Chengde had no chance to get together again after the Lantern Festival, so there were many things that they couldn't say in person. Anxiety is inevitable.

This uneasiness continued directly to the examination room, so that Chengde's ranking in the examination actually fell behind Li Guangdi, He Jinlin, Wang Qi, Wang Jian, Guo Tianjin, and Geng Yuanlu, and only ranked seventh.Although Cheng De was not disappointed by this, he just didn't like it.Mingzhu was very happy. In his eyes, his son was just a 17-year-old boy. He could be regarded as outstanding and outstanding if he got such a high ranking in the exam with a group of well-educated people from all over the country!At the very least, his ranking was much higher than that of Fucha's Ma Qi. You must know that although Ma Qi also won this time, he was outside the two hundred.

So in the past few days, the family celebrated Chengde, and Chengde himself didn't seem to be very good-natured. He watched a play with Ama Erniang at night, and went back to bed early.

On the second day, I went to Nan Huairen's Tiangong Pavilion.Before Chengde reached the door, he saw an all-too-familiar carriage from a distance.This car is usually used by Xuan Ye when he goes out of the palace in low clothes, and now it is parked here, presumably someone else is in it at this time.

Cheng De stopped, stared at the car for a few moments, then turned around and wanted to leave.But he only took two steps when a voice shouted from behind: "My lord, stop!!"

Chengde has already guessed who is coming by hearing the voice.The footsteps sounded gradually, and he turned around to look, and sure enough, he saw Cao Yinfei running towards him.

"Why, is the emperor here?"

"The emperor has seen the young master, why should the young master leave?"

The two spoke almost at the same time, Cheng De smiled and did not answer, waiting for Cao Yin's next words.

Cao Yin explained again, "The emperor is on the second floor of Tiangong Pavilion. He saw you from the window and let me come down! My son, the emperor invites you to go up!" Cao Yin secretly observed Chengde, and saw that he heard The slight smile and helplessness in the eyes at the last sentence caused an inexplicable pain in my heart.In the past three years, the separation and reunion of these two people, Cao Yin, as Kangxi's confidant, didn't say everything clearly, but it was much clearer than outsiders who didn't know.In his opinion, if a person like Mr. Nalan has an affair with the emperor, it is not the emperor who is wronged, but the person in front of him!

Even Cao Yin himself suppressed the admiration in his heart, and never showed it in front of Chengde, for fear of desecrating this immortal figure.And that person, no matter how noble his status is, he is still a man with countless numbers in the harem, so how could he be willing to harm this person in front of him again? !

Seeing that Cao Yin was in a daze, Cheng De patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said, "What are you thinking? So engrossed?"

"Uh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I suddenly remembered something! Young master, I'll take you up first!" Cao Yin said, making a gesture of invitation, and led Chengde into the gate of Tiangong Pavilion.

Standing by the window on the second floor, Xuan Ye had a panoramic view of the two of them.Seeing Chengde questioning Cao Yin with concern, he felt very uncomfortable.Thinking back to the scene when Chengde kissed Cao Yin in Jingqian Zhai when he was a child, the jealous vat in his heart shattered for no reason.

Xuanye turned his head to Nan Huairen who was reporting the improvement of the red-clothed cannon, and said: "You can leave this plan to Cao Yin later, I will take it back to the palace and finish it in the evening, and let Cao Yin send it to you early in the morning! You go down Come on, I want to meet someone here again!"

Nan Huairen could also see that the emperor was in a bad mood at the moment. Although he had already regarded Kangxi as a good confidant, but after so many years in the Qing Dynasty, he also knew that this master held the power of life and death in his hands. He wanted to say a few words of concern, but he swallowed the words when he was on the edge of his mouth, and he went out after paying his respects.

In this room, various drawings were hung on the walls and on the table, and it was a special room for Nan Huairen to study astrology and weapons on weekdays.In the whole room, only a rocking chair near the window was empty, and Xuan Ye sat down on it.

When Nan Huairen went downstairs, it happened that Cao Yin came up with someone.Cheng De often came to Nan Huairen to learn foreign languages ​​and astrology. Nan Huairen also liked Cheng De very much. When he saw him now, Nan Huairen immediately greeted him with a warm smile, "Cheng, I'm afraid it's not today." It's a good day for studying, I have a guest here, otherwise can you come back tomorrow?"

Chengde smiled and said: "Teacher, you have misunderstood. I am here to meet your guest. Maybe he has something to say to me."

"Oh?" Nan Huairen thought for a while, then smiled and said, "I remembered, you did come to my place together when you were young, but I didn't expect your friendship to last for so many years! Well, since you two If there is something to do, I will not bother, I will go to the production room behind, if you have something to do, just call me!"

Cheng De agreed and watched Nan Huairen leave before entering the drawing room on the second floor.

Just after closing the door, Xuan Ye hugged him tightly.

Cheng De didn't move, let him hold his arms and asked softly: "What is the emperor's order for calling the grassroots?"

"Even he remembers, Rong Ruo, have you forgotten everything about your childhood?" Xuan Ye answered irrelevantly.

Cheng De sighed, knowing that he had overheard the conversation with Nan Huairen just now, he said: "About the Emperor, Cao Min remembers it clearly." He did not even forget the events of his previous life.

"Then do you still remember when is Zhen's birthday?" Xuan Ye sat down on the rocking chair with someone in his arms, and let Chengde sit on his lap, with his chin resting in Chengde's nest, a little asked sourly.

"Of course I remember, it's March [-]th, how could I forget?" Cheng De said it so naturally, so taken it for granted, and after he finished speaking, he was stunned.

Xuan Ye was satisfied with Cheng De's tone just now, but he didn't show the slightest bit, and said aggrievedly: "But, I haven't received a congratulatory gift from Rong Ruo for a long time..."

Thinking of the reason why he couldn't give gifts, Cheng De didn't know how to answer him, so he fell silent.

Xuan Ye obviously thought of it too, and quickly changed the subject again: "Don't forget this year!"

Chengde nodded and replied, "Okay."

The topic cannot be continued for a while.Seeing that Cheng De seemed to have something on his mind, Xuan Ye waited for him to speak out.Sure enough, after a while, Cheng De asked: "Your Majesty, a few days ago, he decreed to bestow marriages for new scholars. I don't know what that means?"

This question is sharp, and it hits Xuan Ye's careful thinking. He has already started to plan this matter, but he can't talk to Cheng De at this moment. After a few happy events, someone came up with this idea."

"Did the emperor ever think that the grassroots might also pass the exam?" Cheng De had already pushed Xuan Ye away when he said this, and although he was still hugged and sat on his lap, he stared at his eyes seriously, he thought Knowing Xuan Ye's true thoughts, they don't want to be like before, their hearts are separated by their bodies, even if they are combined day and night, it seems that thousands of mountains and rivers are separated.

Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Xuan Ye changed his face and said, "Of course I hope you pass the exam, not only do I hope you pass the exam, I also hope that you can be the top student in high school! You must know that you have never been a woman in my eyes! Even if there is no one in the whole world who can compare with you! In this world, who else is worthy of you except me?! You have to trust me in this matter, and I will naturally arrange it for you! I won’t let you go Let me go!" After saying that, Xuan Ye tightly grasped Cheng De's hand, holding it so tightly, as if Cheng De would really leave him if he let go.

Although he still didn't find out why, Xuan Ye's words seemed to give Chengde a reassurance, which made Chengde's mood cleared up a lot since he was depressed before the exam, as if he had been holding it in for a long time and finally relieved himself. In one breath, he relaxed.

Chengde gave an 'hmm' and said, "I believe you are."

Xuan Ye immediately smiled and kissed the man hard on the face.Cheng De pushed him, but he hugged him even tighter. Originally, he just wanted to kiss him, but after such pushing and pushing, he reacted.

"Rong Ruo, give it to me!" Xuan Ye demanded in a hoarse voice, the arrogance in that tone was undeniable.

"Not here! Master Nan will hear it!"

"It's fine if you don't call!"

"How is it possible - ah - ha -" being caught below suddenly, Chengde exclaimed as if gasping for breath, the ending sound hastily stopped, and his whole face was instantly smothered purple.

After not touching anyone for a month, Xuanye finally got a chance. Even if he didn't think of this at the beginning, he can't hold back now.He is like a beast that has been starved for a long time, galloping fiercely in Chengde's body.At the beginning, Cheng De could hold back his silence, but later on, he was already confused, even if he subconsciously bit his lip and controlled himself, how could he resist Xuan Ye's troubles like this, and was forced to shed tears, crying begging for mercy.

Cheng De fell into a coma at last, was carried into the carriage by Xuan Ye, and taken to the inn.
