I ate soft rice in those years

When Chu Shuhua came out of the courtyard, he saw Chu Xiuyan and Chu Wenlin walking past the Yunshui Pavilion and heading towards Qingyun Zhai around the corridor.

"Your Majesty." She walked up and stopped behind Chu Xiuyan, calling softly, "I have something to talk to you about."

Chu Xiuyan turned his head and glanced at her, just when Chu Shuhua thought he would refuse, he said slowly: "Come with me."

Seeing that it was none of his business, Chu Wenlin prepared to leave first, "Then I'll go back to Qingyun Zhai first."

Chu Xiuyan nodded, and then they separated into two paths with him, and walked along another long corridor to a side hall.

Chu Shuhua had a leg problem, so Chu Xiuyan let her sit down, and Zheng Yue went to make tea.

After hesitating for a while, Chu Shuhua said: "Your Majesty, I know that you value capable people, and the Chu family has always loved talents. Many literati and military generals in the court have been favored by the Chu family. Your respect for Chu Wenlin He is especially valued, and he also looks at his superiority. He is a talent that can be created. However, people's hearts are fearful and must be guarded against. Today you raise him to the rank of clan, what will he do to you tomorrow?"

Chu Xiuyan raised his eyes, his expression calm.

Chu Shuhua pursed his lips, and continued: "Chu Wenlin has a deep mind and harbors evil intentions, it's better for your son to be careful."

After she finished speaking, there was silence at first. Chu Xiuyan picked up the teacup on the table with one hand, and brushed off the tea leaves floating on it.

"You know him well?"

Chu Xiuyan's voice was cold and cold, which made Chu Shuhua's heart tighten.

She was silent, recalling her previous life.Husband and wife have been together for many years, how could they not understand each other? It is precisely because of getting along with each other for so many years that they know that he is a person who is terrible on the surface and behind the scenes.

Chu Xiuyan continued: "You divorced your husband on the wedding night, it should be extremely humiliating to a man. But you are sick, and he still helps. You say he is deep in thought, then you know how he treats his servants. " Chu Xiuyan said slowly, "You haven't spent a day with him. The servants of Qingyunzhai should know him better than you."

Chu Shuhua shook his head unconsciously.

She wanted to say no, Chu Wenlin killed both her mother and child, how could she not know what he was like?

But she couldn't tell.

Do you want her to say that she is a person from the previous life and knows the future?Who can believe it.

There was deep depression between her brows, and Chu Xiuyan lowered his eyes not wanting to say anything to her, so he stood up and walked out.

Chu Shuhua quickly stood up, dragged his feet, and wanted to say something else.

This leg was caused by the fall of the roof beam that day, and Chu Xiuyan also put on a mask because of the fire that day.

He stopped and turned his head sideways, the long hair falling on the moon-white long clothes seemed to be shining against the sun, and he said to Chu Shuhua: "Stand by yourself."

This is the family motto of the Chu family, and the children of the Chu family will memorize it by heart since childhood.It is about no matter what kind of difficulties you encounter, don't blame others, but strictly discipline yourself, restrain yourself and return to the courtesy.

Chu Shuhua paused, as if enlightened.

After a while, she blessed the body, "Thank you for the lesson, my son, Shuhua will remember it in my heart."

-

It was a warm spring day, and it was time for Chu Wenlin's imperial examination.

Although his legs had recuperated earlier, in order to avoid some complicated and trivial matters, he did not return to the Shuchang Pavilion to study, but still studied in Qingyunzhai.

On this day, the imperial examination went directly to the palace hall and waited directly.

But as soon as he arrived at the place, he heard a sneer from the side, and then Ning Zishan walked up to him.

Chu Wenlin sighed softly in his heart, these are those complicated things.

Ning Zishan stared at him, bent over to say hello to him, but his tone was extremely sarcastic, "Long time no see, Chu Shuchang."

Chu Wenlin replied politely: "Long time no see."

"I heard that you accidentally dropped your leg, is it okay?"

"Okay." Chu Wenlin nodded, and Ning Zishan laughed, "Okay, I thought you couldn't come, so I can't see how boring you are if you lose your name."

You are really annoying.

Chu Wenlin looked at Ning Zishan, hoping that he could understand the meaning of his eyes.

But the other party didn't seem to wink, "I think you should call it sick and give up the exam. It's better to have a broken leg than to lose face."

"You seem pretty sure I'm going to fail?"

"Of course." Ning Zishan looked affirmative, he squinted his eyes and smiled: "Because I must be the one who was chosen in the end."

Chu Wenlin smiled, "I can't see it, after all, if you do too much unrighteousness, you will die."

At this time, the front door of the hall was slowly opened, and Ning Zishan snorted with a smile, and said meaningfully, "Then you just wait."

Chu Wenlin didn't bother to talk to him.

All the common people walked into the main hall, and there were enough desk chairs in the center. There was a bead curtain covering the hall, and behind it was a mighty and gorgeous dragon chair.

When Chu Wenlin just sat down, he heard a thin voice, "The emperor is here."

Everyone stood up again and bowed to salute.

Then I saw a strong man dressed in bright yellow sitting on the dragon chair behind the bead curtain. He slightly raised his hand and said in a calm voice, "Get up."

That is Emperor Yan Bianzong.

An old eunuch at the head held a wooden box in his hand and locked it with a golden lock. Tremblingly, he took out a key and opened the golden lock. Inside were written examination questions.

The old eunuch squealed and scanned the audience, "This imperial test is limited to five sticks of incense. When the incense is exhausted, it is time to hand in the papers. It cannot be overdue. I hope you all know it."

The little eunuch next to him lit the incense in response.

"The royal test begins."

When Chu Wenlin got the title, he realized that it was two meters long.No wonder I left five incense sticks of time, and I don't know if I can finish writing.Just when he was about to read the questions, he unexpectedly saw that Ning Zishan had begun to answer the questions with a pen.I was a little puzzled in my heart, how could he read the questions so fast?

The time for Wuzhuxiang was long or short, and Chu Wenlin was finishing writing the last word, when the eunuch left the stage and began to put away the questions.

When the emperor behind the bead curtain took the title and was about to review it, an eunuch suddenly came over and whispered something in his ear.

It seemed vaguely that he frowned, then stood up and walked towards the harem.

The old eunuch came out, "Everyone, please stay safe and don't be impatient."

But after waiting for about two sticks of incense, the emperor still hadn't come back. In the end, the old eunuch only said to go back and wait for the good news, and let them leave first.

-

Inside the Yulong Pavilion, the old eunuch from yesterday walked in, "Your Majesty, the Empress is asking to see you outside."

The emperor was reading the essay questions Chu Wenlin and the others answered, and waved his hands in disgust when he heard the words, "No, let her go back and reflect on herself."

"Yes."

The old eunuch walked out of the hall, "Empress Empress, the emperor is reviewing the essay titles, you should come back another day."

The queen's expression remained unchanged, and she said indifferently: "Eunuch Wu, please report to me again."

Eunuch Wu sighed, "Oh, ma'am, it's not that the old slave refuses, it's the emperor's intention. The sun is also strong today, so you should go back earlier."

Today is early spring, and the sun is warm and warm, but Eunuch Wu still squints his eyes and smiles all over his face, and he doesn't seem to be talking nonsense at all.

The queen gave him a cold look, turned and left.

Watching her go away, Eunuch Wu sighed.Back in the hall again, Yan Bianzong was rubbing the center of his brows, his expression hard to hide his irritability, Eunuch Wu stepped forward and asked, "Is the emperor feeling unwell? Do you want this old servant to call for the imperial physician?"

"No need." He put down his hand, still frowning and looked at Eunuch Wu, "The queen is gone?"

"Yes, the empress has already left."

Yan Bianzong threw the title in his hand on the table, and said in a stern tone, "I really don't know how to repent. Concubine Xiu is still pregnant, so she can be punished so severely."

Eunuch Wu said nothing.

The queen did these things not once or twice, but because she relied on her general father to win the throne for the emperor, she became more and more unscrupulous, but Yan Bianzong was helpless.Even when his favored concubine was killed by her with the fetus in her womb, Yan Bianzong only locked her up for two months, and the general came to intercede.

Seeing that there were two essay questions on the table, Eunuch Wu changed the subject, "Has the emperor selected the winner?"

Yan Bianzong looked at the answer sheet on the table, "One is well-behaved, but it can't be said to be wrong. It is similar to the idea I made, and the other idea is novel, and the way to solve the problem is also a different way. It is really something to be made."

"Then you like the latter?"

Yan Bianzong shook his head, looked at Chu Wenlin's deep eyes when answering the question, "It's a pity. It's a pity that he was used by the Chu family."

The aristocratic family has too much power, which has always been a heart disease of the royal family.If the queen's father is the wolf behind him, then the powerful Chu family is the tiger ahead.The cabinet is where the emperor is, and he will not let people from the aristocratic family take this position.

"Pass down the decree, and Li Ning's family, Ning Zishan, will be the winner."

Eunuch Wu's eyes flashed, he lowered his head, "Yes."
