A little surprised: "I didn't expect that Brother Gu is here too, it's really surprising!"

Gu Shuyan didn't even raise his head: "It's too noisy at home, come here to quiet down."

His voice was calm, as if he was not affected at all.

Pu He was slightly stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Brother Gu, you are joking. Everyone knows that Lord Gu dotes on his wife the most. Apart from handling official business, he is always at home. There is no concubine or anything like that at home. How can there be any noise in Brother Gu's home?"

Gu Shuyan raised his eyes calmly, and there was no expression of helplessness on his very elegant face, but the words he spoke were tinged with a bit of ridicule.

"Brother Pu knows my family very well!"

Pu He was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "That's because I'm familiar with Brother Gu. As a friend, I naturally want to know more about Brother Gu."

Gu Shuyan finally smiled: "Really? But, I don't think I have a good relationship with you, Brother Pu!"

Pu He's face stiffened slightly, and even the smile on his lips was about to disappear.

Others around couldn't help but say.

"Hey, you are so rude. It's your honor that Brother Pu is willing to talk to you."

"That's right! With Brother Pu's literary talent, he will definitely become the top scholar in the future. It's really unbearable for me to hear you say this."

"Do you want to pretend like this?"

"Brother Pu, you don't need to say more to a commoner like him. What does he know?"

"..."

Common people?

Gu Shuyan lowered his eyes slightly and took a look at the clothes he was wearing. Well, it was a coarse linen shirt, which was very comfortable to wear.

His family is actually quite wealthy, and his father, Gu Qi, is a fifth-rank governor.

Speaking of which, although it is nothing in the capital, at least I can be an official in the capital, which is already very good.

The main reason is that my family is relatively wealthy.

Of course, it’s mainly because his mother is relatively wealthy.

The entire Gu family usually spent most of their money on the dowry his mother brought when she got married.

Because his home has been very noisy recently, he came out here to read.

In order to prevent people from coming up to chat with him, after all, the imperial examination is approaching, and with his appearance, if he dresses better, some girls will inevitably come up to talk to him.

He has no intention of falling in love and is only thinking about the upcoming imperial examination.

So, in order to avoid these troubles, he always went out wearing plain clothes.

I have to admit, this way, there are indeed fewer people who talk to me.

But I didn't expect that it would become a topic of complaints today.

"Don't say that. Brother Gu's family is very rich."

Pu He concealed the smile in his eyes and spoke to everyone.

He just liked to see these people insulting Gu Shuyan.

So what if he is the legitimate son of the wife?

No one outside knew this. All they could see was that I had outstanding literary talent and my family was very wealthy.

People are snobbish, and these students are even more so!

In fact, Gu Shuyan can only blame himself for making himself look so miserable. If he hadn't been ridiculed by others, it would have been a waste of the clothes he was wearing.

Gu Shuyan waved his hand: "Whatever you say, if you have nothing to do, please leave. I want to continue reading."

He didn't want to argue with them at all.

After a pause, his eyes fell on Pu He: "Also, Brother Pu, we are not very familiar with each other, you should go find someone else to chat with."

After saying that, he didn't even look at Pu He's reaction and continued to read with his head down.

After that, no matter what Pu He and others said, he did not respond at all.

Pu He and others were bored and left.

……

The group had just finished their meal and were leaving the restaurant when a middle-aged man in a blue robe suddenly stopped him.

Pu He was slightly surprised: "This brother..."

It looks so unfamiliar, he doesn’t recognize it!

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Puhe Pu?"

Pu He nodded: "Yes, I am Pu He, I wonder who you are..."

"Our Princess Liao Ning invites you to come to Prince Ruyang's Mansion for a chat. How about that?" The middle-aged man smiled.

When the people around heard this, they were immediately surprised.

"I didn't expect it, Brother Pu, has your talent already alarmed Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"As expected of you, Brother Pu! Even Her Royal Highness the Princess has shown favor towards you."

"Brother Pu, go quickly! If you become successful in the future, don't forget me!"

"Brother Pu is so lucky."

"..."

The students spoke up one after another, looking at Pu He with envy.

Princess Liao Ning has such a great reputation!

They all felt that Pu He was very lucky.

Pu He himself did not expect that his luck would be so good.

He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Gu Shuyan's article could actually alarm the princess.

But it’s also good this way. If I can get in touch with the princess, then even if I don’t take part in the imperial examination, my future will be limitless.

"Since it is the princess who invites me, I naturally cannot refuse. Your Excellency, please."

He was very respectful to the middle-aged man.

He could pretend to be respectful to other people, but he would never dare to be disrespectful to the people in Prince Ruyang's Mansion, even the servants.

Princess Ruyang went shopping with Prince Ruyang today.

Therefore, Pu He met Mi Qingxue directly in the front hall.

"I have met Her Highness the Princess."

Pu He bowed respectfully with a perfect smile on his face, trying his best to show his best side.

He thinks he is good-looking.

If Princess Liao Ning takes a liking to him and recruits him as her consort, then...

He simply couldn't imagine how good his life would be in the future!

Mi Qingxue frowned and looked at him.

How could a guy like this be the third male lead?

Why does this look a bit vulgar?

No, it just looks, not good at all.

"Are you Puhe?"

Mi Qingxue spoke in a calm voice.

"Yes, I am Pu He, and I am from the capital." Pu He said respectfully, not daring to look around.

Although everyone said that Princess Liao Ning was very good, her reputation in the capital was not that good before.

That person is notoriously difficult to please.

Therefore, he did not dare to act rashly.

"Well, there is a position here. Are you interested?"

Mi Qingxue thought about Qin Yan's instructions and spoke slowly.

Pu He was slightly startled and subconsciously looked up at Mi Qingxue, only to see that Princess Liao Ning's expression was obviously very casual.

Does that mean that the position she gave herself was not very good...

Or maybe she heard about my talent and wanted to recruit me, but she didn't intend to recruit me as a consort...

This won’t work. His goal is to become a royal consort so that he can clear his mother’s name completely.
