"Preach my oral order to announce Gu Chengqi's audience." In the palace, Zhao Changyu closed Ye Huai's test paper, and ordered Chen Yan, who was driving beside him, to say, "You go in person, be sure to invite someone over."

Zhao Changyu picked up the article and glanced at it again, while Chen Yan was at the side not knowing how to answer.

"What?" Zhao Changyu realized something was wrong, and glanced at Chen Yan.

Two huge beads of sweat emerged from the corners of Chen Yan's forehead, "Your Majesty, this is against the rules." Whether in this dynasty or the previous dynasty, there has never been a tribute who was summoned by the emperor just after the palace examination and the results were not yet available.

"It's not in compliance with the rules? Then today I set a precedent, go and invite me." Zhao Changyu said.

Chen Yan quickly accepted the order, and trotted down to finish his errands. Today's emperor is no better than the former emperor. The former emperor was obsessed with poetry and books, and he was very casual in other matters, but today's emperor is a one-sided character. Since he ascended the throne, his majesty has become more and more serious, and Chen Yan dare not disobey him anymore. .

Chen Yan hastily found two young eunuchs who were on duty with him, and asked Qimen Military Academy Lieutenant Fang Xu for a team of guards to accompany him, and took them out of the palace.

Going out at the gate of the palace, I met King Qin's chariot.

"My little one has seen the prince." Chen Yan bowed to King Qin to pay his respects. Although King Qin didn't have much real power in his hands, he was the only brother in the world, and no one inside or outside the court dared to underestimate him.

"Eunuch Chen, you're being polite." King Qin got out of the car, and took his fur lightly, like a noble son in an imperial capital, "Is your father-in-law going to do business for the emperor?"

"My lord's eyes." Chen Yan flattered with a smile.

"Since it's the emperor's errand, father-in-law can't neglect it, and I won't bother you." After finishing speaking, King Qin led his people to the palace.

Chen Yanchang heaved a sigh of relief. One of the two brothers was indifferent, and the other was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. They were not easy to serve.

King Qin walked a little further away, and the attendants at the side saw that there was no one around, so they whispered in his ear, "The old fox didn't say anything, could it be that the emperor asked him to do something very important?"

"Is this a place where you can gossip casually?" King Qin's expression became sharp instantly, and the attendant who spoke just now was about to kneel down and plead guilty when his legs softened, but he grabbed him and said kindly, "This king is not an unreasonable person." , don’t do it again next time.”

As soon as the words were finished, a group of maids happened to come out from the corner, Qi Qi stopped and saluted, and asked Qin Wang to go first.

King Qin regained his grace and leisure, and led his men to Zhao Changyu's study.

But he said that Chen Yan took people out of the palace to find Ye Huai. That day when he saw Ye Huai's clothes, he looked like the students gathered at the drunken man's pavilion in the west of the city, so he took someone there first to inquire, but the answer he got was that Gu Chengqi did not come back last night.

Could it be that he was disheartened by the result and went back? Chen Yan complained, and took people to the Zhuangyuan Building in the north of the city to try their luck.

Of course there was no Ye Huai in the Zhuangyuan building, but some people said that Gu Chengqi went to the princess mansion.

Chen Yan was dumbfounded now, Gu Chengqi's hands and eyes are incomprehensible? First he was paid attention by the emperor, and now he is favored by the princess. Will he be the prince or King Qin next

Zhao Changyu wanted to see him, and Chen Yan didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly took people to Princess Yurong's mansion again.

Speaking of Princess Yurong, this is the master who is favored by the current emperor. When Princess Yurong was born, the former emperor was still there, and now she is only the son of the emperor's younger brother, a nephew of the emperor. When she becomes an adult, she will be degraded to the rank of Xijue and become the king of an idle county for a lifetime.

Unexpectedly, when his father died, he assumed the title of nobleman, and then his uncle also died, and he assumed the throne again. From the son of the prince to the son of the current emperor, he suddenly became the emperor.

Zhao Changyu ascended the throne and served the people in logistics and administration. He was a gold-armed iron horse to the outside world, benevolent to the inside, and cared for his only two sons and daughters. When Princess Yurong was sixteen years old, she got the princess mansion before she got married, and she was allowed to go back to the palace for a short stay from time to time. Princess Yurong is seventeen this year, and the memorial for her son, Princess Shang, almost flooded the imperial city, but the princess refused to marry, and the emperor pushed everyone out.

With such a powerful father who still loves his daughter, as long as it has nothing to do with the political situation, Princess Yurong can be regarded as right.

After Chen Yan arrived at the princess mansion, someone immediately invited him to the front hall for a while, and then sent someone to invite the princess. But he had drunk two cups of tea, and the princess was nowhere to be seen.

"Excuse me, can you inform the princess again?" Chen Yan was anxious. The princess is not there, but the emperor is still waiting. Both sides are ancestors, and he can't afford to offend them!

Just when he was anxious to get angry like an ant on a hot pot, there was a hearty and clear laughter from outside the corridor, "Eunuch Chen, did the emperor send you to give me something again?"

A young man of modest stature followed Princess Yurong. If it wasn't for his short stature, he could really be called a pair of golden boy and jade girl.

Chen Yan met Ye Huai on the day of the palace examination, and he recognized him at a glance under his old-fashioned eyes.

"Greetings to Your Highness, the princess. The emperor sent a young man to pass on a word of mouth. He wants to meet Mr. Gu beside you." Chen Yan said. , Chen Yan naturally did not dare to neglect.

Who knows if Mr. Gu will become the son-in-law tomorrow.

"Looking for him?" Yu Rong was also surprised. The first time she saw Gu Chengqi yesterday, she thought he was good-looking. After bringing him back, she didn't expect the chat to be quite speculative. This morning, she took him to play and chat with her again. She didn't expect Mr. Gu As a scholar, he has two ways of playing.

Ye Huai was also surprised when he heard Chen Yan's words, what did he do? Zhao Changyu actually knew him

"Can you please tell me, what is the emperor looking for?" Ye Huai asked.

Chen Yan glanced at him strangely, the princess was on the side, he couldn't use the posture of the chief eunuch to bluff people, but Gu Chengqi's question was too shameless, the emperor called you, so there are so many reasons of.

Chen Yan cared about Yu Rong, but Yu Rong didn't have so many scruples, she laughed immediately, "Hahaha, Mr. Gu is nervous? Don't worry, my father doesn't eat people, why don't I go with you Bar."

"Then trouble the princess." Ye Huai said, thinking that Zhao Changyu may not eat people, but there are ways to deal with him. Didn't it mean that writing an article in ancient times could be decapitated? He also wrote a large piece yesterday in eloquence!

After deciding to enter the palace, Zhao Yurong asked them to wait in the front hall, and went to change without mentioning it.

In the palace, the King of Qin invited Zhao Changyu outside the study. Zhao Changyu had just finished approving the memorial in hand, so he let the King of Qin in. After King Qin came in, he saluted politely, cared about Zhao Changyu's body, occasionally chatted with the beauties he saw when he was traveling, and jokingly called Zhao Changyu Nafei.

When Zhao Changyu was the eldest son, he also married his first wife and took several concubines. Later, his first wife passed away after giving birth to the prince, and there was no rebirth. He has never touched the small ones, and after a few years they were all released to marry. Now the harem is empty, not even a maid to warm the bed.

King Qin saw that Zhao Changyu was not interested in the topic of accepting concubines, so he changed the subject and talked about the recent developments in Beiyuan.

"I was traveling all the way, and I heard that there was a horse plague in Beiyuan, and many cattle and sheep were also infected. I was so scared that I hurriedly took my BMW away from the north. If it was infected, it would not be a joke. Just for fun." King Qin laughed, as if he was just worried that his beloved horse would get sick.

"I've heard about it." Zhao Changyu said, "They must have insufficient rations if there is a plague of horses. The border gates have strengthened their vigilance, but the thirty-six counties of Yanzhou are in their hands. They can cross Yanshan Mountain at any time and drive straight in. .”

The thirty-six counties of Yanzhou were ceded by the first emperor in order to ease the relationship with Beiyuan. At that time, they also signed a non-aggression treaty together. However, the political situation of Beiyuan experienced a big shock. The new king of Beiyuan did not recognize the treaty, and entered into a situation of a small war with Da Mao again in two years and a big war in three years.

"I don't have any other skills, but I'm good at riding and archery, and I know a little bit about Beiyuan. If there is a war, I'm willing to go to the front line." King Qin said loudly.

Zhao Changyu nodded in relief, "If you hadn't been there to support me back then, I wouldn't have broken Beiyuan's blockade so easily and regained Jiu'an and Lu and Fengzhou."

When Zhao Changyu returned from Ba to aid the imperial capital, thanks to the hard work of King Qin in the city and the news, he was able to break into the city as quickly as possible and drive out the barbarians.

Because of this achievement, Zhao Changyu has always been quite generous to King Qin.

The two brothers talked a little more, and an eunuch came to report that Princess Yurong and Gu Chengqi were already waiting outside.

After hearing this, the King of Qin hurriedly said to leave, but Zhao Changyu didn't stop him. He walked out of the palace gate, and saw Yu Rong in palace attire standing with a good-looking young man, talking and laughing.

"Yu Rong." Qin Wang walked over, "Is this Mr. Gu whom the emperor wants to see?"

"Uncle Qin." Zhao Yurong greeted him with a smile, but didn't say much. This uncle laughed every day, but he always felt that he had a bad stomach, and Yurong didn't bother to talk to him when he was fine.

The King of Qin didn't bother himself any more, he just took one more look at Ye Huai and left on his own.

Ye Huai also finally saw this future villain, and said to 520 in his heart, "Xiao Lingling, this King Qin's genes are not as good as Zhao Changyu, and he is not half as good-looking as him."

520: "..." Your focus is not right.

Ye Huai immediately forgot about the "not good-looking" King Qin, and followed Yu Rong in, ready to appreciate Zhao Changyu's handsome face again.
