"The fragrance of birds and flowers is a gift from nature. Although it makes people feel happy, it can't be eaten in the mouth and satiates them. Even if you drink, you have to drink it elegantly and comfortably. Why don't you just wait here for a while, I will Go to the city to buy some food and drink, go back!" Ren Yue twitched the corners of his mouth lightly, and immediately got up gracefully, before Sheng Yaoshan could react and say anything, the windy white robe flashed, flowing like a cloud, Instantly disappeared from Sheng Yaoshan's sight.
"Huh! You're a lady, there's a lot going on! Anyway, I'll just wait for you to buy food and drink! Let's see how you get out of this door! Huan Rouer... hum!" Sheng Yaoshan looked in the direction where Ren Yue disappeared, whispered to himself.
The eyes and words changed from the previous chic and straightforward, but it was a little more chill and sharp!
"My lord! Why are you here! My master almost ransacked the entire Ren mansion when you went back!" In the market in the capital, when Xiao Anzi saw Ren Yue, he stepped forward and grabbed Yingxue's hind legs!
"Oh? You go back first, and tell Dad that Sheng Yaoshan and I drank outside the city, and we won't come back tonight if we don't get drunk!" Ren Yue didn't care, and explained to Xiao Anzi as if nothing had happened.
"My lord! My lord!" Little Anzi is not willing to let go! Yingxue's strength was quite strong, the horse's leg that was tightly pulled slipped out of her hand in an instant, Xiao Anzi was quick-eyed, and grabbed Yingxue's long ponytail again, Yingxue was startled, and immediately stopped.
"What's wrong!" Ren Yue asked impatiently.
"My lord! You can't just leave like this! It's not the master, it's the palace, the emperor has summoned you! Let you enter the palace quickly!" Xiao Anzi finished speaking out of breath, then looked at Ren Yue, who had already disappeared Without a trace, he rushed straight to Ren's mansion!
"Father, what's going on in the palace?" Ren Yue yelled as soon as he entered the Ren mansion.
The emperor summoned him, and at this juncture, Ren Yue always felt faintly uneasy.
"Yueer. Hurry up, change clothes. The emperor wants to choose a consort for Princess Yunluo! Order the top three to enter the palace quickly!" Ren Hongting didn't say much when he saw Ren Yue came back, he just urged the new champion to change clothes, and then Enter the palace!
"Consort?!" Ren Yue was stunned!
"Exactly! What are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and change your clothes!" Ren Hongting was in a hurry.
"Father, you are an official in the court, and you know the emperor's meaning best. Could it be that the emperor has someone he likes?!" Ren Yue did not act. He just asked Ren Hongting on the spot, eagerly waiting for his answer.
"Alas..." Ren Hongting let out a long sigh.
"Father, you are talking! The emperor will not let me be the princess' son-in-law!" Ren Yue asked directly in a hurry.
"You boy! I don't know what you are thinking! No matter how good Miss Wen is, she is just a cook after all. Even if I am the same as your mother, how can I guess the emperor's mind? According to According to the ancestral system of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the number one scholar in the new department will be the son-in-law of the dynasty, this is a certainty!" Although Ren Hongting felt helpless in his heart, he still said with a straight face.
"Father! Ren Yue doesn't want to! At the beginning, Ren Yue begged Father to take him into the palace. Could it be that the emperor has forgotten it? Ren Yue is the soft son who begged in front of the holy face! Although the emperor did not clearly grant the marriage that day, it was also a golden word , Said that it is our family affairs! Why does he meddle in our family affairs now! Is it because Ren Yue won the top prize in the new exam! If it is really for the status of the champion, Ren Yue would rather not be the champion!" Ren Yue has always been uninhibited, Participating in the imperial examination this time is for the sake of the teacher, and being the champion is for my own promise! Now someone wants to tie him up to the royal family because of his status. Ren Yue became impetuous for a while, changed his usual calmness and politeness, tore off his crown of number one scholar, and ruthlessly threw it far away!
"Bastard!" Ren Hongting reprimanded sharply!
"Pick it up for me quickly! Do you think that the number one scholar is the one you say you want to be, and if you say it's not right? Do you think that entering the palace to be a son-in-law means that you travel around the mountains and rivers and go when you want to go? Don't you go if you don't want to go? Entering the court, the emperor is the guide for the ministers. The emperor makes the ministers die, and the ministers have to die! You have read books for so many years, don’t you still understand?! Today, let’s not say that the emperor has not selected you as his son-in-law, but he really chose you , you deserve it, you deserve it, and you don’t deserve it! How can you decide for yourself! If you don’t want to, just take the lives of thousands of people from my Ren family in exchange for your freedom!” Ren Hongting finished speaking in one breath , although he was born in the army, he is physically strong, but after all, he couldn't hold back his old age for a while, and after he finished speaking, his face was already full of blood, and his whole body was trembling with anger! A big hand tightly grasped the armrest of the grand teacher's chair, barely supporting himself to stand up!
"Master, be careful!" Yan stood aside, persuading worriedly.
"Father, what did you just say? The emperor hasn't made a decision yet?!" Ren Yue couldn't care whether Ren Hong Ting was angry or not, and he just grasped the most crucial sentence in his words in an instant.
"You are lucky! This is also your last chance! I heard that the princess is unwilling to accept the number one man appointed by the emperor, and that she wants to choose it herself! If you really don't want to marry the princess, your majesty will keep a low profile for me. Don't be so pushy about everything! You've already attracted attention if you don't talk or laugh, if you show off your literary talent or something, don't say that my father didn't warn you!" Ren Hongting's face softened a little, Yan Shi handed over a cup of warm tea, and Ren Hongting sat down and took a sip slowly.
"Father, don't worry! Thank you for your reminder! Ren Yue will enter the palace now!" Ren Yue was delighted, and turned to leave.
"Come back, don't you change your clothes?" Ren Hongting was shocked.
"What more clothes! Street tour in the morning, the horse's back and the crowd are wrinkled and dirty, just right! Father, Ren Yue is leaving!" Ren Yueyun smiled lightly, and gently raised his hand , is farewell.
"Wait! The emperor has orders. This time, when entering the palace, each of the top three will bring a cook!" Ren Hongting suddenly remembered something.
"Cook!" Ren Yue's long and narrow eyes rolled slightly, and then the brilliance of wisdom flashed.
"Father, is there any new apprentice in our house?" Ren Yue asked with a smile.
"Hehe, it's really a new one. I bought it yesterday! I haven't learned from a teacher yet, but I'm just doing chores and washing dishes in the kitchen!" Ren Hongting suddenly understood, and the eyes of the father and son met. The 19-year-old little cook was brought out pitifully, trembling, not daring to look up at anyone in the hall.
"What's your name? How old is this year?" Ren Yue asked casually.
"Back... the third son... the slave is called Dunzi, and he is just thirteen this year." The elementary school apprentice named Dunzi replied falteringly.
"Dunzi, hehe." Ren Yue sneered slightly, and then asked again: "Can you cook?"
"No... not really..." Dunzi hesitated.
"I don't know how to cook, what are you doing in my Ren's mansion!" Ren Yue asked playfully without raising his eyes.
"Learn... learn art... beg for food! Dunzi has plenty of strength, please don't drive Dunzi away..." Dunzi said as he hugged Ren Yue's thigh tightly, tears and snot pouring out instantly.
"You don't know how to cook, what use do I need you for?" Ren Yue didn't try to persuade him, but just asked calmly.
"Dunzi knows how to cook noodles, stir-fry shredded potatoes, and mix cucumbers at home! Do these count?" Dunzi wiped his nose and said inarticulately.
"Hahahaha! That's right, go! Follow me!" Ren Yue smiled very comfortably.
"Third son, if you don't chase Dunzi away, where shall we go?" Dunzi asked foolishly with a smile through his tears.
"Follow me into the palace, and cook a meal for the emperor!" Ren Yue didn't explain, but only guessed in reply.
"Entering the palace...the emperor...the emperor...the emperor!" Dunzi stammered, and he passed out in an instant!
