Someone said sourly: "Maybe Baron Pingnan suddenly realized that he didn't read too much and wanted to make progress."

Not everyone will agree with such a statement. Is it a problem for Gu Mu to make progress?He was studying in the palace before, so the people who His Majesty called into the palace to teach Gu Mu could be less knowledgeable?They were all called from the Hanlin Academy.

"I heard a gossip, but I don't know if it's true."

"What is it?"

"I heard that Viscount Gu has come to the capital. I think Baron Pingnan is here to get these materials for Viscount Gu. This Viscount Gu has already passed the local provincial examination, and he will definitely take the general examination next year."

"Passed the country test? Gu Zijue has such a level?"

"This list will be reported to the imperial court. It will not be difficult to find out."

Some people don't believe in evil, and actually found a way to check the newly released list of candidates in various places, but found that Gu Zhao's name was indeed included in the latest list of candidates published by Jiangtai City News, and the ranking was still very high. The news spread in the Imperial College, It shocked many people's eyes.

I think that after Gu Zhao's life experience was exposed, many people believed that he would return to the Yongning Hou Mansion, and that he would become a classmate of the Imperial Academy with them in the future, and he could directly enter with his identity without taking the exam. With such psychological preparation, he would have never thought that he would not bother to stay in the capital, and left after the lawsuit was over.

Someone said bitter things again: "I heard that the provincial examination in the local area is much less difficult than our Fengtian Prefecture examination. gone."

There are only a few who can agree, and those well-informed people know that Gu Zhao studied at Wensi Academy in Jiangnan before the rural examination. Gu Zhao's performance and achievements in Wensi Academy are quite good, and he is very popular with the masters and principals of the academy.

Gu Zhao didn't know the fuss of those students in the Imperial College. He and Song Ze were very happy with the materials Gu Mu got back, and sent a copy to Ye Xiuming.

Although some students in the Imperial College were sheltered by their families, they may not have many real talents, either dawdling around or using the Imperial College as a place to develop contacts, but there are also many who got in by relying on their own true talents. Talented scholars from all over the Zhou Dynasty teach their talents to learn more, so the information obtained from them is of great reference value.

In the palace, the emperor asked Yan Xiangxi who was helping to critique papers by his side: "I heard that kid Gu Zhao has come to the capital?"

Under the emperor's teaching, Yan Xiangxi no longer just read the scriptures for the emperor, but began to imitate the emperor's handwriting and directly replace the emperor's scriptures. Of course, the important scriptures still need to be read by the emperor himself, which is also an excellent During the learning process, those three seniors could not get the emperor's hand-in-hand teaching.

But who told them that they were only the emperor's nephews and not his own, there must be a difference in treatment.

Yan Xiangxi didn't even raise his head: "Yes, I've come to the capital. That kid Gu Mu is now following Gu Zhao all day long to show his courteousness. I didn't expect that Gu Zhao actually passed the provincial examination."

The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Yeah, I didn't expect it, so I specially found his papers and read it. He has real talents and learning, and he should also be practical and capable in the future."

Yan Xiangxi kept these words in her heart. Obviously, when Gu Zhao was admitted as a Jinshi, her father would definitely use him. She naturally hoped that Gu Zhao could practice it early. Compared with other people, Gu Zhao was naturally on her side. .

She really needs to thank Yan Xiangmian for this point. The reason why Gu Zhao mentioned her words at the beginning was probably because he was afraid of Yan Xiangmian's existence. If Yan Xiangmian came to power, based on his relationship with Yu Wenshao, Gu Zhao could not do well.

Thinking of this, Yan Xiangxi couldn't help but burst out laughing. Seeing his father looking at him, he quickly stopped him. The emperor shook his head. Sometimes this child is old-fashioned, and sometimes he is a little childish, so he is really worried.

Fortunately, he has made a lot of progress during this time. Anyway, in the eyes of the emperor, he is much better than those three nephews, and those three naturally have the advantage of gender.

Thinking of this, the emperor asked: "Your son-in-law should be finalized quickly, don't delay any longer, you choose it yourself, and the emperor will make an order for you."

Yan Xiangxi put down the vermilion pen and touched his chin and said, "It's okay, after so long, it's time to settle down. My son is not young anymore, if you settle down early, you can let the emperor hug your grandson sooner."

These words immediately made the emperor a little excited, yes, the grandson who inherited his blood, seeing his grandson was born, maybe he can live a few more years to help Xi'er adjust and teach the little grandson, such In the future, the emperor wants to take good care of his body even more.

Seeing the brilliance on her father's face, Yan Xiangxi felt that she had made the right decision. Maybe having a child earlier would be a good thing for her father. While she was studying hard, she hoped that her father could live longer than anyone else. For several years, not only because of the love between father and daughter, but also because the longer her father lived, the better for her.

Although she was born in Tian's family, the father's love she enjoys is much stronger than many people's. Yan Xiangxi is very grateful to have her father planning for her like this. In fact, he is trying to help her.

If you can't get it, wouldn't it be too disappointing for the father, and let down the father's love for his daughter.

Gu Zhao received the invitation from the princess, and happily took Song Ze to the appointment.

Just Gu Mu murmured that he had a problem with Yan Xiangxi disturbing his brother's reading at a time like this, Gu Zhao laughed and said, "Study should combine work and rest, and it's time to go out for a walk."

Song Ze also had some expectations for this princess. Back then, Gu Mu was discovered and taken away by the princess who went to Qingling Mansion in a micro-clothes. Moreover, with the current situation in the court, anyone who paid a little attention could guess the princess' thoughts. It's just that everyone still tacitly didn't say it out, thinking that if they didn't say it out, the emperor wouldn't be able to reveal the real intention of the princess to the public.

Therefore, such a tacit understanding is maintained in the court now, and it is unknown when this tacit understanding and balance will be broken.

Song Ze came from a farm family and was raised by his widowed mother, who worked hard for him to study. In addition, he saw what Gu Yao and Li's Song mother did in Qingling Mansion. Song Ze was not indifferent, because this In the current environment, Song Ze not only didn't think it was wrong for the princess to compete for the throne, but also felt that it would be a challenge. If the princess really has a high position, it would be a great thing for young people like them who are not so old-fashioned about entering the officialdom. one piece.

What's more, his good brother Gu Zhao was close to the princess, and Song Ze felt that he was naturally on the princess' side.

After getting dressed, the three of them arrived at the restaurant invited by the princess. The princess had already been waiting for them upstairs by the window.

Although this location is not a box, but when he went upstairs, Gu Zhao found that this location was chosen very well, not only taking care of privacy, but also being able to see the overall situation of the restaurant.

Because outside, Yan waved to Xi and didn't let Gu Zhao and Song Ze salute. She was very polite to Song Ze. Knowing Gu Zhao's situation, Song Ze was also in her information. Winning Xie Yuan is a dark horse. Yan Xiangxi is quite confident about his next year's exam, and some of the materials Gu Mu got were also secretly used by her.

Yan Xiangxi and Gu Zhao were not so polite, and asked directly: "How do you read the book? Are you sure about the exam next year?"

Gu Zhao smiled: "Someone asked us this before the township examination. Similarly, I dare not say that I am sure. It depends on luck."

"I really have no ambition. I thought you would say that you will be safe, and you will have to come to the number one scholar to explore the flower or something."

"Pfft!" Gu Zhaogang picked up the teacup, luckily he didn't drink it, otherwise he would have to spray tea, Song Ze twitched his mouth when he heard it, he didn't expect the princess to be like this, and he didn't expect Gu Zhao to get along with the princess like this in private.

"The princess is too high on me, Gu Zhao. I'm lucky that I can be on the list instead of failing in the exam next year." Gu Zhao changed his tone again, "Mr. Sun, the chief examiner of Jiangtai City, is Ding Shangshu, right? Is the Shangshu standing? Who is it?"

It is not easy to explain these things in the letter, so Gu Zhao has been curious since he came back from Jiangnan, who exactly did the surname Ding run errands for.

Gu Mu pouted: "Brother, why didn't you ask me? I know, they are on Yan Xiangjin's side. Now Yan Xiangjin is the most powerful in the court, and the other two guys have to join forces to compete against him."

Gu Zhao was surprised and said, "It's already reached this level?" He patted the outside of Gu Mu's arm again, "Okay, I didn't think to ask you, I happened to meet the princess today, and I still haven't answered this matter yet."

Gu Mu is easy to coax, of course, this is only for Gu Zhao, so Gu Mu put it down when Gu Zhao said this, and turned his gun to the princess: "Why did you ask my brother to come out today?"

Yan Xiangxi said speechlessly: "I am also an acquaintance of Gu Zhao after all. Is it normal for him to come to the capital to show his friendship as a landlord?"

Gu Mu rolled his eyes: "I don't believe you would invite my brother for no reason."

Song Ze quickly lowered his head to drink tea. It seems that the rumors outside are not exaggerated at all. The way Gu Mu and Princess Yongfu get along is really surprising, but it can also be seen from this that the two are actually very close and trust each other.

Gu Zhao also told him that Mumu and the princess had been fighting since they were young. Song Ze was dubious before, but when they met today, he felt that it was very possible that Gu Mu might have really beaten the princess.

Yan Xiangxi glared at Gu Mu angrily, obviously she had known this kid for a longer time, and the friendship was forged from petty fights, why didn't she see this kid favor her side.

Yan Xiangxi surrendered and said, "Okay, let me tell you, I really have something I want Gu Zijue to help me with."

"What's the matter?" Gu Zhao asked curiously.

"Help me to see the consort candidates that I have selected."

"Pfft!" Looking back, Zhaozhen spouted tea.
