Abandoned Concubine

Chapter 251 However, the emperor wants face
Chu Sijiu sensitively sensed that Dongfang Hao was interested.

Specifically, he watched her closely.

In the past, he rarely came to the gallery, but now he came over suddenly, making it impossible for her to work properly.

"My lord, aren't you busy during the test?"

She led him to look at the painting, and stood still in front of Lin Zimo's "Returning Wild Goose", "The inscription on it was changed from the song of Hongyan, and it is very artistic."

Dongfang Hao looked at it calmly, with a handsome face, "You are attracted by this painting?"

These words sounded a little strange, Chu Sijiu pursed her lips, and tilted her head to look at him, "Don't you realize that your intentions are lofty and your painting skills are amazing?"

Dongfang Hao snorted coldly, "If I hadn't heard that song, maybe I would."

He was implying that Lin Zimo was opportunistic?
Lowering her eyes, Chu Sijiu really thought about it for a while.

At that time, there were a lot of submissions, if it weren't for the painting of Guiyan and the similar sentences, it would have been difficult to impress her for a while.

"Lin Zimo's painting skills are all there, gold always shines..." Especially he is so hot and good-looking.

Chu Sijiu couldn't show weakness, he raised his head halfway, and spoke plausibly.

Dongfang Hao glanced at her lightly, "You come here early every morning, what do you do?"

Yo?Really came to check the post.

I'm so busy, can I tell you? !
Chu Sijiu chuckled, "Do you want to get involved?"

Dongfang Hao frowned, quietly...looking at her.

"Chunhuan, melon seeds, peanuts, and candied fruit come up." Chu Sijiu was unambiguous, and if you are interested, I will set up a tea party for you.

Yun Duo really didn't want to see Dongfang Hao, so he hid in a corner and pretended not to exist.

Chu Sijiu would also pick it up now.

The chatting duo, how could it be without her.

Chatting in front of two cold-faced gods, the pressure on Yun Duo is great enough.But Chu Sijiu could not hold back the leadership, and as soon as the melon seeds were licked, the words immediately flowed endlessly.

Xiao Su'er is pregnant, she went to see a doctor a few days ago, and she was so happy to talk about it.

Until Lin Zimo was so good-looking and close to the people, several girls on this street went to Qianfo Temple to pray and wish him the number one scholar in high school.

"The owner of the rice shop asked a matchmaker to block him at the street. Mr. Lin was not annoyed, he listened carefully, saluted, and said that my mother had already arranged a marriage for her."

"real or fake?"

"How do I know. It is reasonable to say that the place in the north is not rich, and the folk customs are simple, and I have never heard that the people there can read. Why is Lin Zimo suddenly appearing like a flying fairy this year?"

Dongfang Hao has already investigated this question.

"The Lin family is an immigrant family who moved from Jiangnan 30 years ago." He interjected.

Chu Sijiu suddenly discovered that the two of them had a good chat, and the two cold-faced gods listened very seriously, and they were able to participate in critical moments.

"It is said that the northern fief near Zhongyonghou's mansion, the Lin family's poems and books are handed down to the family, and life is not rich." Dongfang Hao said lightly.

"How many exams did Xibei make this year?" Chu Sijiu asked.

"Three." Dongfang Hao raised three fingers.

It is said that the north is not the area of ​​influence of the traditional big family. Lin Zimo is amazingly talented and unlearned. He is favored by all parties, but he does not belong to any camp. The situation is very delicate.

Talent is the primary productive force, and all forces, including Dongfang Hao, are staring at him.

……

During dinner, Chu Sijiu asked with a smile, "Does the lord want to win over Lin Zimo?"

Dongfang Hao frowned, and picked up a chopstick as if nothing had happened, "What is Ah Jiu thinking?"

Chu Sijiu was just chatting, she was very busy and didn't want to get involved in this matter.

"Jiangnan has produced talents since ancient times, and they are all super powerful. I heard from those candidates, even though the Han and Li families have produced so many candidates, they are all low-ranked. Among your bunch of candidates, you are definitely Can be a top three."

Dongfang Hao frowned, and said calmly, "Several scholars of the Imperial Academy asserted that this year's number one scholar will be Lin Zimo."

Chu Sijiu was a little excited, frowning, and said happily, "Really, then I can make a fortune."

To get started with the God of Wealth, you have to be happy.

She squinted her eyes with a smile, "I didn't expect that not only my vision is good, but also my luck. In the past four years, only one champion will come out, and I will be the first to strike first. Haha."

Her reaction was extremely natural, nothing out of the ordinary.

Dongfang Hao looked at it lightly, knowing in his heart that it was impossible for her to forget the hatred between the Chu family and the Dongfang family.

"If he really wins the first prize, Ah Jiu can recommend it to me." He said softly.

"Okay, what kind of official does the prince want to give him?" Chu Sijiu was curious.

"We'll find out after talking."

"That's right. I think the Ministry of Household Affairs is pretty good. The money comes in quickly there."

"Ah Jiu wants him to embezzle?"

"Ha, the world is as black as crows, and it's not his fault to follow behind to pick up some silver."

"Ah Jiu."

The tone is serious.

"I'm talking nonsense, he doesn't need it at all, he can make a lot of money by just painting a picture, why do we need to do that." Chu Sijiu surrendered quickly.

"Qianye Qing hasn't drawn for a long time?"

"Well, you've been busy recently."

I'm already busy, but I still have to eat sunflower seeds to chat, and deal with your investigation, so I don't have time.

……

The general examination lasted for three days, and Yecheng entered the stage where all the people were waiting for the examination.

In ancient times, there were not many common people who were literate, and they all held an attitude of admiration for cultural people.

Outside the examination room, people would often go by, some of them were funny, they would set up some joss sticks and knelt down to worship, saying that it was a bit of literary spirit, and bless the students at home to be able to pass the exam.

Chu Sijiu is planning a big event.

very busy.

On the fourth watch of the first day of the exam, Li Xueming, the servant of the Ministry of Rites who was in charge of the arrangement of the exam room, had a thieves in his mansion and a lot of things were stolen.

There are people who steal, and there are naturally people who chase.

Unluckily, Li Xuemin's family exposed their wealth. Boxes of gold and silver, and all kinds of silk treasures were overturned all the way, and scattered everywhere in the streets and alleys.

The sky was twilight, so dazzling that the eyeballs of the people shone.

The ancient people were honest, never closed their doors at night, never picked up things on the road, and were good citizens everywhere.

Seeing this kind of scene, he decisively reported it to the officials, and there were still many people guarding the side to protect the scene, and no one was allowed to come and clean up.

Big event.

The yamen immediately sent someone over.

When things come to this point, it is a proper ancient version-thief anti-corruption.

The minister of the Ministry of Rites is at the fourth rank, and his official rank is not high.

Li Xuemin was nearly fifty years old, he belonged to the Li family faction, but he was not a direct descendant. He was promoted to the first rank all the way through studying hard on his own, and worked hard in the Ministry of Rites for many years before he became a decent official.

The salary can be calculated, his family background is average, how can he have so much money?

The Li family immediately panicked. Although the position of Minister of Rites is not high, it is very practical.For big families, it is even more important.

Li Gan mobilized the forces of the Li family to protect Li Xueming unanimously.

However, the emperor wanted to face it, and the common people in Yecheng saw it, and spread the word about it.

Dongfang Guiyi demanded himself according to Mingjun's standards, and he put money under the bed at home if he was greedy, so he just didn't see it.

If it is stolen by thieves and sprinkled all over the street, it will not be finished (the third tone of liao).

check!And check it hard.

The wall fell and everyone pushed.

There are many people who want to see the Li family's jokes.
