Isn’t it good for the five of us to be together?

I was summoned to the palace the next day, but there was no need to set off so soon. Ling Hengyuan's mood today can be said to be good or not, but even if it's bad, he seems to be in a good mood.

Maybe it was because of his smiling face that confused my eyes.

I sat aside, feeling a little flattered. After all, I had been kneeling the last few times I came here, so how could I be treated like I am now.

Ling Hengyuan was still dealing with some things. I sat here and watched him quietly. I have to say, it was really eye-catching.

He did not wear a cumbersome yellow robe today, but a black robe, and his hair was simply tied up with a black jade hairpin. He wrote with concentration, and even his usually sharp eyebrows softened a lot.

Sure enough, serious men are the most handsome.

I have to cry, the system is still brotherly enough, and all the players are handsome guys.

『(?ˉ??ˉ??)』

I don’t know if my eyes were too hot, but Ling Hengyuan glanced at me, and I quickly looked away.

Ling Hengyuan: "You can watch it if you want. If you hide, you will lose face."

I:"?"

ha? If you let me watch it, then I will lose even more face.

So I turned my head to the other side. The tea in this palace was really good tea, but it was different from the tea outside.

As I admired the rise and fall of the tea leaves, another person's reflection was reflected in the water.

I was shocked when it was Ling Hengyuan who came to me.

Ling Hengyuan: "Can you watch it with such gusto over a cup of tea?"

I quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it is a common man who has behaved inappropriately before the emperor."

Ling Hengyuan said in a very calm tone: "Don't be so afraid of me. I'm in a good mood today. I don't want to kill you. Get up."

Me: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ling Hengyuan started to play with his dagger again. He didn't know what material it was made of. It looked a little old: "Today, the Prime Minister proposed to give you a sinecure. What do you think?"

I quickly said: "Your Excellency, you really have high regard for the common people. The common people know that they are not capable enough. Being an official in the court is really a disgrace to the common people."

Ling Hengyuan: "There is no need to be so humble. The Prime Minister has his own reasons for saying this, but there are indeed some objections from the upper court."

I realized that Ling Hengyuan had no objection to me joining the court as an official. Today he should be discussing with me how to erase those objections and enter the court properly.

Looking at Ling Hengyuan's unfathomable expression, I felt a little suspicious.

I said: "The common people are all at your Majesty's command."

Ling Hengyuan: "You are really sensible. Anyone who enters the court in Nanyang and becomes an official has to pass many tests, and you are no exception. In a few days, the cabinet elders will test you together with me. From tomorrow on, you will come to Qinzheng Hall to learn something. , we can deal with it directly on that day without being too embarrassed."

I was shocked, exam? Won't this cost me half my life? It was Ling Hengyuan who was personally guiding me. Based on my level, I am afraid that he would either be frightened to death by my shocking words or be angered to death by my wild lies.

My sister’s life is at stake...

Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, Ling Hengyuan frowned and said, "You don't want to?"

I quickly said: "No, no, no, this is simply a blessing for the common people. To be taught by His Majesty himself, the common people are really... bursting into tears."

In fact, I feel like crying without tears.

Seeing my expression, Ling Hengyuan smiled and said: "This matter is really not up to you. There is a small position that I have been thinking about but I haven't found a candidate. It seems that you are okay at the moment."

Um? I actually have value?

Seeing my enthusiasm, Ling Hengyuan struck back mercilessly: "After all, you are better at handling it."

Me: "..." There is no need to speak so bluntly to a fool.

"drop! Received the Ling Hengyuan branch mission: successfully entered the court as an official! Please come on, host! Big gift packages will be distributed at that time! 』

When I heard the system prompt, I quickly said: "It is only a commoner's ability to win His Majesty's favor."

Ling Hengyuan was no longer interested in my flattery: "Step back, I'm tired."

He waved his hand and I went down.

The moment I left the Qinzheng Hall, I was filled with emotion. This was probably the first time that Ling Hengyuan and I had chatted so calmly.

When he returned home and told Qin Che about this matter, Qin Che had no unnecessary expression. Although he was a military general, he also knew a lot about civil affairs.

Qin Che: "You look nervous?"

I nodded: "Afraid of saying the wrong thing, afraid of losing the general's face."

Qin Che glanced at me.

I immediately changed my mind: "It's Archer..."

Qin Che was satisfied and continued: "With the Holy One by your side, they won't embarrass you. The Holy One always arranges people as he pleases. This has never been the case. Except for the official selection test, the Holy One has never asked the Holy One to set a separate test Everyone knows the precedent of human beings and the importance they attach to it.”

After hearing what Qin Che said, I became even more panicked.

Am I not a typical stand-out person?

Qin Che added: "If you are worried about the latter, don't worry. No one will look down upon you if you enter the court as an official as the cousin of the general who governs the country."

I pursed my lips and said nothing.

Qin Che: "Aji, you don't need to maintain the reputation of the General Mansion, and you don't have to worry about losing the face of the General Mansion. The General Mansion will not let a weak woman take on a big responsibility."

I looked at Qin Che. He was indeed a paranoid character, and even his gentleness was paranoid.

Qin Che thought to himself and said, "I just went back home and passed by the uncle selling candied haws. Thinking that you like to eat them, I bought a bunch."

After he finished speaking, he took out a bunch of candied haws from behind, which were crystal clear.

I don't know what stimulated me, so I refused: "Archer, I don't like to eat candied haws recently, I'm a little tired of it."

Qin Che froze on the spot and looked at me blankly.

I looked at him, and there was a stubbornness in my tone that I was not aware of myself: "Actually, I prefer to eat peach soup. When I succeed in my studies, I will make it for Archer."

Qin Che had no expression on his face, holding the bunch of candied haws tightly in his hand, but the next second he threw it to the ground, turned around and said: "No need."

Watching his leaving figure, I sighed, annoyed that I was being stubborn.

Today is the first day of study at Qinzheng Hall.

It feels unreal.

What kind of character am I? What skills do I have to go to Qinzheng Hall and let Emperor Nanyang teach me personally? It's ridiculous when you think about it, but it happened in reality, and it's inexplicably exciting.

I showed my token to the gatekeeper and let me in. There was also a palace maid to lead the way for me.

In fact, I have been here so many times, and I am very familiar with this route.

Arriving at the Qinzheng Hall in a familiar way, I was surprised to find that there was an extra small table.

for me?

Is Ling Hengyuan so kind?

There was no one in the hall at this time, Ling Hengyuan was probably still attending the morning court, so I stood aside obediently, following the three no's principles, not sitting around, moving around, or looking around.

Saving one's life is the main task.

Maybe it was because I stood so upright that a young eunuch outside the palace couldn't stand it any longer and came to tell me: "The Holy One has ordered that Miss Chen can take a seat."

Me: "No need, father-in-law. It is a blessing for ordinary people to see the Holy One, so naturally it is more respectful to stand."

The little eunuch couldn't resist me, so he withdrew.

After waiting for a long time, my legs were numb even when I stood, before Ling Hengyuan went down to court.

I have to say that although Ling Hengyuan has a bad temper, he is still very dedicated to his work.
