Someone always wants me to be a courtier [Rebirth]

A day without seeing is like three autumns?

But it was less than half an hour since he came out of Luocheng Hall.

Facing Yun Yixi's eyes, Su Yanzhao nodded with an indescribable attitude, and then stepped into the nearby palace that he had just left.

Xie Qizheng propped his elbows on the table, drawing circles with his fingertips in boredom, raising his head occasionally, and glanced at the Gongsheng students who were writing hard.

He regretted it. Really, proctoring the exam is really not an easy job.

This is the same even if the invigilated exam is Daqi's highest level exam so far.

While he was bored, the sound of the palace door opening and closing came from not far away, he raised his head subconsciously, just in time to see Su Yanzhao's figure.

When the people got closer, he smiled and said, "The Prime Minister has something to discuss? It's more convenient to go to the back hall."

As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to pull up his sleeves and walk in front, which caused Su Yanzhao to be startled, and it took a while for him to react.

Ganqing didn't want to stay and was too embarrassed to leave, so he simply borrowed his name.

Shaking his head helplessly, he didn't object aloud, but followed silently.

Compared with the main hall where the majesty of the Heavenly Family is displayed everywhere, the apse of Luocheng Hall is not luxuriously furnished, and it is not even spacious, it can barely be regarded as a place to rest.

Xie Qi didn't dislike it, and he let out a long breath of relief as soon as he entered the door, as if he wanted to remove all the tense demeanor in the main hall just now, and completely relaxed his whole body.

"If you don't like it, just leave and no one dares to say anything." Su Yanzhao looked at the young man's expression of satisfaction in getting rid of the sea of ​​suffering, and said with a twitch of his lips.

"But I said earlier that I'm going to attend the palace examination in Luocheng Palace." Xie Qi raised his eyebrows, but the sleepiness that lingered in his eyebrows earlier has long since disappeared, leaving only a touch of gentleness.

He looks like he wants to take care of both sides.

"Heh..." Su Yanzhao gave a low laugh, and said soothingly; "There is nothing to do in the evening, I will accompany you until the palace examination is over."

Isn't it because you think the palace exam is boring and want someone to accompany you?It's okay to say it straight.

"Really?" Xie Qi confirmed with a bit of joy that his wish had been fulfilled on his face.

Su Yanzhao nodded slightly as a response, took the tea cup that Rong Yan handed over, held it in his hand, and moved the topic away.

"Ah Qi, have you thought about the top three candidates this time?"

Xie Qi was stunned for a moment when he asked the question in a matter of course.

"Now that the palace examination has not yet ended, and Gongsheng has not yet submitted all the strategies and theories, how can he think of the top three candidates this time?"

The tea in the teacup was still a bit hot, Su Yanzhao was not in a hurry to drink it for a moment, he just raised his eyebrows and smiled; "Ah Qi once asked me on the day of the imperial examination in Chong'an, why I won the Huiyuan, the palace examination Sometimes it’s just the second place.”

The ranking of the scientific examination is something that can never be re-examined for a lifetime, no matter how high the seat is and how much power it holds in the hands, it cannot be said that it is completely indifferent.

But Su Yanzhao spoke very casually, as if what he said was not something he experienced personally.

"In that year's imperial examination, among the top three and two top ten, except for me, I was not considered to be from a family. Oh, and there was a Shenju. At that time, the Shen family was in decline. It's just to appease the family."

When Wen Zong was in power, he was very deliberate in promoting poor families, and the selection of candidates in the general examination was not determined by the emperor, so he worked hard on the ranking in the palace examination, which can be regarded as a secret in the court.

He took a look at Xie Qi who seemed to understand, and continued; "The family is powerful and intertwined, making it difficult for the children of ordinary people to ascend to high positions. Wen Zong's intention to do this is very obvious. Ruizong and Mu Zong The time is too short to deal with this matter, Ah Qi should know what I mean."

Of course Xie Qi understood.

Su Yanzhao was reminding him what to do after taking office.

No wonder the people around him were not enthusiastic about whether Su Yizhi could be the first in the imperial examination.

"Why did Jing Zhi tell me this?" He looked at the person not far away with some doubts, and asked softly.

The Su family is not only an aristocratic family, but also an established family.The old Duke Ding passed away for many years, and his prestige still exists. There are still many accounts in the army that used to sell the two brothers Su Yanzhao.

So why tell him this?

"The heirs of the Su family are not prosperous, and Su Yizhi's lineage has long since faded. Dingguo's mansion has only one son and one daughter for so many years, and it is not so complicated." Su Yanzhao smiled and explained to him casually.

Xie Qi looked at the expressions of the people beside him, and suddenly felt...

Why do you feel that watching the excitement is not a big deal?

An illusion, it must be an illusion.

"What's more, I don't plan to have an heir in this life."

Xie Qimeng tilted his head and looked at the person beside him in surprise.

This is something he has always deliberately ignored.

According to Daqi's rules, it is not taboo to keep male servants or men of similar status in the mansion to make a contract, so men's love has become popular because of this.

Why don't the people know, but for those who are more dignified in the family, it is still necessary to form a contract and continue the blood, but it is handled neatly and neatly, and they are all safe.

According to Xie Qi's thinking, he would definitely not set up a concubine to give birth to an imperial heir. There are many Xie family members around, and those who want to inherit the throne can be arranged from Yong'an Palace to Xuanzheng Palace. There is no need to worry about having no successors.

But he couldn't figure out what Su Yanzhao was thinking, and he didn't have the courage to think about it.

Pounced on like a child who suddenly got candy, the two skin to skin, Xie Qi buried his head in the other's neck, and asked in a low voice; Nah."

"How about a promise?"

Su Yanzhao turned her head to kiss him, and kissed him delicately from the forehead all the way down to the position of the lips.

Xie Qi held the cold lips of the other party, and after a moment of intertwined lips and teeth, he let him go, and a clear voice sounded in the room.

"That's what you said yourself, I'll take it down."

Nearly two months before and after, the imperial examination in the first year of Tai'an finally came to an end.

Except for some turmoil in the general examination stage, the palace examination went smoothly. Xie Qi, who had been restored for less than a year, had to choose the top three papers several times before deciding on the top three, and all subsequent matters were handed over to the Lizheng Hall. Deal with the Ministry of Rites.

It took only ten days for the scientific examination to end, and New Year's Eve arrived as scheduled.

Su Yanzhao, who had celebrated New Year's Eve, went to Dingguo Mansion to attend the family banquet as usual. It was still early in the day before the banquet was held. He hugged Su Yanlian's eldest daughter and teased her in his arms, while frowning and thinking about something.

The usual practice on New Year's Eve is the Hegong Banquet, but this year's Hegong Banquet...

King De died, and Princess Shengda's husband-in-law was convicted, and she herself thanked guests behind closed doors, while Princess Duanrou lived in the palace in Lin'an.

Xie Qixie and Xie Huan are the only two masters left in the huge palace, and they don't know how to hold this palace banquet.

Just when Su Yanlian opened the door curtain and came in, Su Changxi in his arms stretched out his little hand happily when he saw his father, Su Yanzhao smiled, and hurriedly passed the little man over.

"Brother...Brother" the little man tried his best to say every word, his pair of dark eyes kept turning, as if he was looking for something.

Su Yanlian is just such a daughter, she is so precious, she hurriedly said, "Yuan'er hasn't returned home yet, she will come over later."

Su Yanzhao at the side raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said, "Where did Yuan'er go on New Year's Eve?"

The sky has already darkened for the most part, the New Year's Eve family banquet is never allowed to be absent, why is Su Yuan still outside the mansion at this hour?

Holding her daughter in her arms, Su Yanlian said helplessly, "Who knows, there is no homework in Tianlu Pavilion today, who would have thought that His Royal Highness Ninth Prince would send a message from the palace early in the morning to study with Yuan'er Homework. I said there is no need to worry about it because it is freezing outside, but I replied, that kid is fine, he quickly packed his things and entered the palace, and he hasn't come back yet."

As soon as the words fell, there was a maid from the mansion reporting outside the door, saying that the eldest son had returned to the mansion and was on his way to say hello.

When the door curtain was raised again, two children who were about the same in stature and could not even see the difference in their clothes came in.

Su Yanlian looked at the door in a daze, and couldn't help calling out; "His Royal Highness?"

When you go back to your house, you go back to your house, why did you bring one back with you?

There are not many masters in the palace. In this way, can the New Year's Eve palace banquet still be held?

After a while, Su Yanzhao turned his eyes away from Xie Huan and Su Yuan, and turned to the still fluctuating door curtain.

He always felt that someone could come in from outside.
