The palace examination is over, and so is the ceremony of holding Zhou Zhou for my daughter.

Chu Qinghuang and Fucang devoted themselves to busy government affairs again.

Qi Yue officially entered the imperial study and became the new imperial study to participate in politics together with Yu Qiubai and Lu Shen.

"Three years ago, the top three were involved in politics in the imperial study." Zhong Zhongjin warned Qi Yue in private, "Now that Chu Xuance, Wen Zhan and Yun Heng have all joined various ministries, you must also work seriously. "

Qi Yue looked at him expressionlessly and nodded slowly: "Thank you, Mr. Shen, for the tip."

"How do you think about what I told you before?"

Qiyue said: "What's the matter?"

Zhongjin looked at her calmly.

"Oh, I forgot." Qi Yue said calmly, looking left and right, "Students have just passed the palace examination, so they should work hard and focus on court affairs and not be too indulged in the personal affairs of their children. "

Zhong Jin was about to raise his hand to hit her on the forehead, but Qi Yue dodged it: "Master Shen, please respect yourself. If you are seen and reported to Her Majesty the Queen, you and I will not be able to bear the consequences."

"Don't worry." Zhong Jin pinched her face instead, "If someone really files a complaint, I will bear all the consequences."

"Can you bear it?"

Zhong Zhongjin smiled: "Anyway, I won't let you be implicated."

Qiyue was silent for a moment, her eyes falling on his face.

Frankly speaking, Zhong Jin was really talented and good-looking, otherwise he would not have been favored by the princess and became a servant based on his face.

According to the standard of ordinary women looking at men, Sheng Jin was good in everything, good-looking, and good at teasing others, and occasionally acted carelessly to tease others, which could just make the waiting girl blush with heartbeat.

It doesn't matter that he was born a bastard. Anyway, his current status is not low, and he may rise in the future. By then, he will be the head of the family, and there is no need to worry about the difference between a bastard and a bastard.

Qi Yue was absolutely certain that with Zhong Jin's current conditions, it wouldn't be too difficult to marry a noble daughter from a wealthy family. Why did he fall in love with her, a woman from out of town?

"I have no power in the imperial capital, and I am a daughter. I really have never thought about getting married." Qiyue lowered her head and looked at her toes, "Master Shen actually has many women to choose from, you don't have to be here. I'm a waste of time and I'm not a good wife."

"There are many women of the right age in the imperial capital, and there are indeed many that I can match, but they are not you." Zhong Jin said seriously, "When it comes to choosing a wife, every word I say to you is sincere. A boudoir woman who does not need a husband and a child, but is willing to give absolute freedom to the person she likes. She will not be asked to take off her official uniform and live in the house at any time, nor will she be forced to do anything she does not want to do. ”

Qiyue said nothing.

"You said you are not ready yet, I understand, but I still hope you have time to think more and don't deal with me." Zhong Jin smiled helplessly, "You see, I am not too young..."

Too old?

Qiyue blurted out and asked: "How old are you?"

"Twenty-five."

"...That's indeed not young." Qi Yue frowned, "You are eight years older than me, and you can be my uncle."

Zhongjin:...

"No wonder you keep urging me." Qiyue muttered in a low voice, "It turns out that I am worried that no one will want me because I am too old."

Zhongjin:...

Is he very old?

"I will seriously consider this matter," she said, "but you must agree to one condition."

Zhong Zhongjin quickly said: "You say it."

"Does the imperial study room stay with His Majesty every day?"

"That's right." Zhong Zhongjin nodded, "His Majesty will go to the Imperial Study Room to discuss matters after going to court every day. You must arrive at the Imperial Study Room on time before His Majesty. Even if His Majesty does not go, you must still be on duty in the Imperial Study Room, looking through the files and sifting through them. Excerpts, read books, copy articles, and find something to do by yourself. In the process, you must learn to understand His Majesty’s habits in handling government affairs and the preferences of ministers in the DPRK... Anyway, things are very complicated, and you need to listen and read more. , think more, talk less.”

Qiyue nodded: "So my condition is that you don't come to me for a walk if you have nothing to do. This will not have a good influence."

Zhongjin:...

Qi Yue continued: "I work in the royal study, and you work in the official department. We don't interfere with each other. We don't have to meet each other unless there is anything particularly important. If we meet occasionally, if I don't talk to you, try not to take the initiative to talk to me. It’s not good if people misunderstand.”

Zhongjin:...

He is already chasing his wife and is he afraid of being misunderstood?

He usually has to avoid meeting each other, and even if he does meet, he can't take the initiative to talk. Then he has to wait until the Year of the Monkey to marry his beloved wife?

After Qi Yue finished speaking, she planned to leave: "I'm going back first."

Zhong Jin frowned: "How long do you need to think about it? Give me a clear time."

Qiyue thought for a while: "Three months."

"really?"

"really."

"Okay." Zhong Zhongjin nodded, "I will ask you again in three months. If you still have this attitude then, I will have no choice but to ask Your Majesty to grant me a marriage."

Qi Yue frowned, wanting him not to threaten her.

But thinking that getting rid of him was the most important thing at the moment. She really didn't want to get too entangled with him anymore, and people would really think he was a broken sleeve if they saw her.

So he nodded and left quickly.

Zhong Jin looked at her back and clicked his tongue.

"Have you fallen in love with him?" A voice sounded from behind, with a hint of teasing and teasing, "Why do you fall in love with a young man even though there are so many women you don't like?"

Shen Zhongjin turned around and looked at Wen Zhan who appeared in the corridor at some point. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there something wrong with your eyes?"

Wen Zhan frowned.

"I just like young men." Shen Zhongjin turned around and left leisurely. "If there is nothing to do in the Ministry of Revenue, you can go back earlier to accompany your little princess. If there is something to do, your blatant laziness is not the behavior of a loyal official."

Wen Zhan looked at him thoughtfully. After a moment, he turned his head to look in the direction where Qi Yue left, frowning slightly.

Is your eyesight bad?
