As an ordinary country boy, Tu Run naturally had no hidden weapons on his body.Although it is perfectly normal for the emperor to check whether there are hidden weapons on the person who came... But Zhou Xun still couldn't hold back, and glanced at the emperor.

The emperor looked up at the sky and pretended nothing happened.

Meet old acquaintances in other lands.Zhou Xun naturally invited Tu Run to visit his home.Seeing this, Tu Run said happily, "Okay, I'll go back to the inn where I'm staying first, and bring some door-to-door gifts! I've come all the way to bother you, and I can't justify not bringing some door-to-door gifts."

The inn where he stayed was not far from the restaurant.Tu Run left in a hurry.Only Zhou Xun and the emperor were left in the carriage.The emperor said: "You are a young boy, and you are not bad."

"We met in the academy at the beginning. When I was young, I offended Zhou Cai, and was sent by the Zhou family to a countryside near Jiangzhou, a place called Xiushui, where I also studied in the school." Zhou Xun He smiled and said, "He took good care of me at that time."

The emperor slapped his thigh: "He is a good man! Then I have to repay him well, thank him for taking care of you for me—"

Before he finished speaking, the curtain over there was lifted by Tu Run.With an extremely festive smile, Tu Run held a large melon in his hand and said, "Xun'er, Mr. Cha, this is a precocious watermelon I brought from my hometown!"

Zhou Xun: ...

For some reason, he felt that the Emperor's throat was obviously stuck, and then his shoulders trembled.Zhou Xun glanced at him inexplicably, while Tu Run was still talking enthusiastically: "Let's go, let's go to Xun'er's house to eat melons!"

emperor:……

The three of them took a car to Zhou Xun's mansion.On the way, Zhou Xun clearly felt that the emperor was moving in another direction away from Turun.But Tu Run's heart was so big that he never noticed it.Seeing that Zhou Xun's mansion had arrived, Zhou Xun got off the car, and while Tu Run was still visiting Zhou Xun's mansion, he whispered to the emperor, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." The emperor said, "I'm just a little afraid of being forked when I eat melons."

Zhou Xun:? ?

Zhou Xun's strange and cold smile, which Zhou Xun hadn't seen for a long time, appeared on the emperor's face again.He patted Zhou Xun on the shoulder, and then his expression became very serious, with a bit of tacit understanding in the seriousness: "Follow you, you will ascend to heaven, and you will be able to eat melons..."

In the past, Zhou Xun's mansion belonged to two people, but now it has become a stage for three people.The three sat in the gazebo, the emperor silently ate the melon while Zhou Xun and Tu Run were talking.Tu Runzai looked at Zhou Xun carefully, and said happily, "Brother Xun'er and I haven't seen each other for seven years!"

"Yes, we were still in the school at that time. There were two jujube trees planted outside the school, and we often read books and played games under the jujube trees..."

"We played games by ourselves. You didn't like to move at that time, but you liked to watch us." Tu Run said, "It's just that you went back to Jiangzhou later, and I asked someone to inquire about you, and found that you have become the young master of the Zhou family. , so I am embarrassed to meet you again. We really did not expect that the young master of the Zhou family would be driven to our school in the countryside..."

After he finished saying this, he suddenly remembered something, and looked at Zhou Xun cautiously: "Isn't it a little... I'm sorry."

"It's nothing. The days in the school were more enjoyable than the days in Zhou's house." Zhou Xun said, "Is Master still in good health?"

"Master, now..."

Tu Run babbled about things related to the school.Over the years, the master has grown old, and the children who used to study in the school have also grown up.Now there are not many students in the school, and the children who picked up dates and threw stones under the jujube trees in the past are almost gone.

"...If I can pass the exam, I plan to go back to Xiushui to become a county magistrate. As a person, I can't leave my old place." Tu Run scratched his head embarrassingly, "It sounds like I have no ambitions Right? But brother Xun'er must be different from me. You have been smart since you were a child. You will definitely stay in the capital and become a high-ranking official. Besides, my parents have already arranged a marriage for me in Xiushui... …correct."

As if he suddenly remembered something, he looked at Zhou Xun: "Brother Xun, are you engaged now? Mr. Cha, what's wrong with you?"

The moment he finished speaking, the emperor coughed and choked on his throat with a mouthful of melon.

Zhou Xun glanced at the emperor, and put his hand on the back of his hand: "Not yet."

"Oh!" Tu Run didn't doubt him, "I just said that there is no mistress in this house! I don't know what kind of girl is worthy of Brother Xun'er... Now that I have passed the imperial examination , Brother Xun'er, when do you plan to get married?"

Zhou Xun coughed, "I don't intend to get married."

"Brother Xun'er, you have too high a vision. Do you still remember the county magistrate Xu from Xiushui County? He has been promoted to the capital now. His younger sister, yes, is the little girl who used to secretly watch you reading under the jujube tree. Girl, I heard that she hasn't left the cabinet yet, and she still misses you all the time..."

Tu Run didn't wait for Zhou Xun to interrupt, and continued: "Sister Xu's family is gentle and virtuous, well-educated and reasonable, and she is a daughter of the firstborn... She is a very good girl, Brother Xun, would you like to..."

slap!

A piece of watermelon rind suddenly hit the top of Tu Run's head.Tu Run:? ? ?

"I'm sorry, my hand is slippery." The emperor said blankly, seeming a little displeased, "We're getting married now...why the rush? Chun Wei has just finished the exam, and the results haven't been released yet..."

"Oh, yes, yes." Tu Run said happily, "When brother Xun'er is admitted to the number one scholar, he will be married to a high official's daughter...what is it like, the daughter of a minister..."

Zhou Xun heard the sound of the second watermelon rind being crushed.

Tu Run suddenly remembered something, took a peek to the side, and said in a low voice: "By the way, I heard from other candidates that there is another good thing. I heard that when the first-class Jinshi is parading in the street, there will be Many daughters of high officials are secretly looking at each other upstairs. And the emperor!"

The emperor sat up straight in an instant, and showed an expression of "How do you know that I will secretly watch Zhou Xun parade upstairs".

At the same time, he was somewhat satisfied with Tu Run's desire to survive.

But Tu Run just continued: "I heard that the emperor will hold a Qionglin Banquet to entertain the disciples. All kinds of dignitaries will come there at that time, Brother Xun, maybe..."

He patted Zhou Xun's shoulder happily: "The emperor will still give you the princess!"

"impossible!"

Tu Run was startled by the emperor's deafening voice.Simple and honest, he frowned and said in confusion: "How is that impossible? I heard that the eldest princess is not married yet, and Brother Xun'er is talented and so good-looking..."

"If you say it's impossible, then it's impossible." The emperor said firmly, his face as black as the bottom of a pot, "Don't worry about that, it's impossible!"

"How is it impossible!" Tu Run was a little angry, "Oh, do you look down on Brother Xun'er? How do you know it's impossible? Are you the emperor?"

"Of course I..." the emperor said angrily, then stopped here and snorted, "You don't understand!"

Tu Run: ...

A good party ended badly.Zhou Xun sent Tu Run away, turned around again, and saw the emperor sitting in the gazebo, burying his face in the melon rind and getting angry.

Zhou Xun looked at him, sighed and said, "Are you angry?"

emperor:……

He suddenly grabbed Zhou Xun viciously, hugged his neck, and kissed him hard.

"Hmph! You have eyes but no eyes!" He vented his anger at Tu Run outside the door, then hugged Zhou Xun again, "The Dragon King is back!

! ”

Zhou Xun: ...

Emperor: "I really want to tell the whole world that you belong to Lao Tzu."

"I've always been your man." Zhou Xun hugged his face and coaxed him.

... The emperor groaned for a long time, and finally lost his temper.After a while, he suddenly put his arms around Zhou Xun again and kissed him.

For a while, Zhou Xun's eyes were watery and the corners of his eyes were red from being kissed.After a long time, he heard the emperor say in a low voice, "Your eyes..."

Zhou Xun:?

The emperor blushed and groaned for a long time before finally choking out a sentence: "Under your eyes, there are big dark circles."

Zhou Xun: ...

Emperor: "Let's... hang up... you can sleep for a while."

Zhou Xun: "Oh."

Zhou Xun let go of the emperor without saying a word, and went back to sleep.The emperor watched Zhou Xun enter the room anxiously, and ordered Xiao Duo to cover Zhou Xun with his little quilt.

After repeatedly confirming that the small quilt has been covered more than ten times.The emperor finally came out from the gate of the Zhou Mansion. Outside the door, Xiao Lizi looked at him eagerly and said, "Your Majesty..."

Emperor: "There is something to talk about."

Xiao Lizi: "This servant thought that the emperor would spend the night at Mr. Zhou's residence today."

emperor:………………

"Sense of ritual, do you understand the sense of ritual?" The emperor snorted, "Staying overnight... of course, you need to spend the night, aromatherapy, candles, a bed full of rose petals, a love-shaped bed..."

Xiao Lizi: "Although the slave doesn't understand anything, I always feel..."

Emperor: "What do you feel?"

Little Lizi: "It's a bit earthy."

"Tu, you sister! Oh! I'm going to kick your ass hard with my boots!" The emperor was furious and kicked Xiao Lizi's ass. Just one rose petal, and the whole heart-shaped bed will be dusted!"

Xiao Lizi fled all over the place, holding his head and said: "Your Majesty! You are a tyrant!"

Emperor: "No one understands tyrants better than I do!"

Xiao Lizi continued: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou has finished his exams now, you need to be tougher!!"

Emperor: "Little Li, you are dead!!!"

The two chased after me for a while, and after a while, a panting official came from a distance, seeing the emperor here, he hurriedly said: "The emperor..."

Seeing his serious expression, the emperor asked him, "What happened?"

"Your Majesty..." the official said, "The river in Qingzhou has burst its embankment."

……

There was a wave of unrest and another wave. Zhou Xun had just finished the No. [-] Scholar exam, and the river in Qingzhou burst its embankment.

Immediately, the emperor was busy with his life of dealing with floods. He was too busy to take care of himself for a while, so he didn't have time to visit Zhou Xun again.

It stands to reason that Qingzhou should not have floods.However, after investigation, the emperor discovered that when the dam was built a few years ago, some local officials embezzled the materials used to build the dam and embezzled it for their own use.But before the emperor came, Rong Xuan ignored political affairs, and turned a blind eye to the prefect of Qingzhou who would give him a large amount of jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and wanted to convict all the officials here. It is very troublesome.

Therefore, the emperor sent a task force headed by Lu Xiandao to investigate, and even found an honest official surnamed Hou from the court to go to Qingzhou.He was waiting for the news in the capital, and even his mouth was blistered.When Xiao Lizi saw him, he was worried in his heart, thinking that the emperor was on fire now.

So he told Zhou Xun tactfully that the emperor has a bad appetite now.Zhou Xun can try... For example, stew a fish soup or something.

"With Mr. Zhou's care, the emperor will definitely recover much faster." Xiao Lizi said with concern.

Zhou Xun, who was waiting for the announcement of the list, thought about it and was convinced.

Xiao Lizi asked again: "Put some leeks, loach, oysters, wolfberries, and quail eggs in the fish soup to increase the flavor."

Zhou Xun, who can't cook, nodded and said, "Thank you, Eunuch Li, but will these dishes..."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Xiao Lizi smiled so hard, "The Emperor likes to eat these the most."

Zhou Xun:?

Xiao Lizi waved his hands away, hiding his achievements and fame.

And in Zhou Xun's mansion, after almost burning the kitchen for the fifth time, Zhou Xun finally went to the palace with a pot of dark unknown substance.
