After being dressed as a scumbag, the fascination was reborn

Luo Jiao used to go to school, and was sent back because of a scandal, but I heard that she often ran around, hiding outside the teaching palace many times and was discovered by the palace people, as if she was peeping.

As a bachelor attendant, Song Shu naturally had a reason to contact her.

Three days ago, their final plan was to pretend to defect to Luo Fang, ask Luo Fang to help contain the emperor, and during this period, find an opportunity to replace Luo Fang and announce the identity of Song Shu's prince.

And this plan only has a rough outline. The first condition is that they need an opportunity to make them defect to Luofang reasonably without being suspected.

Originally thought that the emperor wanted to lower the position of the Song Shu faction as much as possible, but in the end he made a big move, which was beyond Master Song's expectation. However, in this way, a ready-made reason was placed in front of them——

The emperor has forced them to this point, no matter how stubborn the Song family is, they cannot be more stubborn than the imperial power.

The emperor brought them pillows.

Figured out this verse, Master Song squinted his eyes, and said: "I heard people say that the emperor originally wanted you to be a fifth-rank official of the Imperial Academy, but Luo Fang recommended you, saying that you have shown yourself in the imperial examination. His literary talent is brilliant, even he can overwhelm him, and he will definitely be qualified for this kind of position."

Song Shu looked at him.

"Now the court is spreading the word that the third prince is magnanimous and talented, and praises him for having the appearance of an emperor."

Master Song paused, "I thought it was a fake, but I didn't expect you to be a fourth-rank waiter—is he deliberately forcing you to join him? Can you still use 'Although I lost to you, I don't mind it'." I am ashamed and "step on you" to improve my reputation... Killing two birds with one stone, this is a really good plan."

Song Shu said in a calm tone: "Without him, there is not much difference, it's just a lower grade. If you become a fifth grade, you can't enter the palace to study, but it's not good."

"In that case, we have to thank him." Master Song pulled the corners of his lips and sneered, "I just said that he has a treacherous personality and is not a good thing."

"Okay, it won't be too late for me to look for him again in a few days," Song Shu said in a slow tone, with a hint of comfort, and changed the subject, "Just entering the palace to serve as a student, the most difficult thing is that there is no one in the palace. People, the future will be difficult..."

When he said this, he suddenly stopped, looked up at Master Song, and called softly, "Brother."

Master Song came back to his senses: "Huh?"

Song Shudao: "I have an idea that needs to be verified."

The next day, the newly promoted fourth-rank Hanlin Academy attendant bachelor entered the palace to accompany him.

Master Song stayed for one night, then went out of the city and returned to his mansion outside the city.

The night before his departure, Master Song discussed with Song Shu. Halfway through the talk, he remembered a person and said to Song Shu: "You should have met Chang Zai just now. He is now the head of the palace, and his power is not as powerful as that of any empress in the palace. Poor. I entrusted a young eunuch to the palace last time and gave him a bag of money, I wonder if he will accept this kind of favor."

"If you don't accept it, you have to accept it," Song Shu rolled up his sleeves and poured tea. "When he left just now, I also stuffed him with a piece of silver. He was very happy to accept it. It seems that the emperor didn't show it in front of him. Now he is going to treat the Song family. It means to do it."

If the Song family is really over, and Chang Zai has been a ghost in the palace for many years, no matter how greedy he is for money, he will not be able to accept Song Shu's money.

Song Shidao: "I heard people say that there was a natural disaster in the south these days, a plague broke out, and many people died. The elders in the pavilion were very worried, and they wrote a letter together with Yushitai, requesting a thorough investigation of the source of the disease and reinforcements to the south."

"However, Da Zhou has been extravagant these years, and the national treasury has been short-lived. It is not easy to maintain a smooth turnover until now. Probably the one in the palace is having a headache because of this, and he has no time to deal with us for the time being."

It's just that the plague spread from the south to other places. The people below took bribes and came up layer by layer. When it was really exposed, they didn't know where the source of the disease came from.

"This is the country under his rule," Song Shu smiled mockingly, "If the Song family does not seize it, the world will not be safe."

"That's not what I want to tell you." Master Song raised his hand and tapped his temple, then changed the subject, "I asked the little eunuch to help me give Chang Zai the money because I heard him say that his background is a bit pitiful. Seriously ill. He seems to be an honest person, and he has been doing nothing in the palace. If Chang Zai notices him, he will naturally know the benefits of being an honest person. Knowing that he is fine, maybe he will help promote him."

"He is honest and honest. When his mother was young, she was a maid in the palace of Concubine Shu. It was your mother who left the palace shortly after she hanged herself in Lenggong and adopted this son. If you were in the palace normally, he would not If you respond, you can inquire about his whereabouts, maybe... this person is available."

Master Song made an appointment with him, and he rested in peace outside the city. Song Shu went to the palace to inquire about news, and used Jingxiu's fat pigeon to communicate with each other every night.

Song Shu, as a bachelor's attendant, had to go to the palace to meet the emperor every day. This should have been very dangerous, because none of them knew that the emperor would suddenly attack him one day. However, the epidemic situation in the south was probably too serious. Shu was very low-key, so the emperor didn't have the time to train him deliberately.

Judging from the letters sent back by Song Shu, he has not suffered any troubles for the time being—if "the elders slapped him in the face on the first day he went to court, and not many people approached him" are not troubles.

Fortunately, it is also because of this, every day after the court, he followed the emperor to study. The emperor was very busy and had a very bad temper. The less time you have around you.

The time for Song Shu's shift was not up, he couldn't leave the palace, the emperor didn't need him, he lightly persuaded him a few words, the emperor was playing with his concubine, when he heard this, he was furious, and threw a teacup casually, which was on the ground Torn apart, the emperor was furious: "Get out! It's not up to you to teach me what I do!"

Jin Yiwei's commander, Yi Jin, knelt down together, and Song Shu lifted his robe in a salute without being humble or overbearing, and retreated silently without saying a word.

Yi Jin and him withdrew together, each looked at each other, and performed peer salutes, Yi Jin jumped up to the eaves of the palace expressionlessly and disappeared.

Except for a few words of persuasion like this on the first day, Song Shu seemed to turn a blind eye after that, and took the initiative to resign and leave, and then went to the palace where the princes and daughters studied.

The princes and princesses over the age of 13 will be sent to the Imperial College after passing the preliminary examination, so those who stay in the palace are half-grown children under the age of 13. The literary talent of Song Shu is more than enough to teach them as the Taifu's assistant, and the Taifu also treats him well. I appreciate it very much.

It's just a coincidence that he couldn't wait for Luo Jiao for several days in a row, instead he often ran into Luo Fang "accidentally" in various places.

Song Shu had previously heard Master Song say that Luo Fang liked him, but he never really took it to heart. He deliberately made a coincidence and bumped into him so many times, which gave him a sense of reality.

The first time he ran into Luo Fang, it was probably because of an accident. Luo Fang was courteous to a man in Tsing Yi, and Song Shu was about to leave the palace. Passing by, the man in Tsing Yi turned his head and saw him, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

Song Shu's eyes turned cold for two minutes. After saluting, he turned and left. After that, he often met Luo Fang. Probably the encounter that day gave him some inspiration.It's just that Song Shu never saw the man in Tsing Yi again after that.

Luo Fang was sometimes with others, but it was either the princes and daughters in the palace or officials sent to the palace to discuss politics. Only this man in Tsing Yi was the first and last time Song Shu saw him.

On the first night when he bumped into them, he hesitated for a while in the correspondence with Master Song, and then mentioned this matter, describing the man's appearance: thick brows and big eyes, with a youthful look in his brows and eyes, and arrogance. He is a pampered person.

Because the man was wearing ordinary clothes, Song Shu didn't know who he was, and when he mentioned this to ask Master Song, he just added it casually - with his appearance, he would be stared at whenever he went out these days. He has seen a lot of eyes in his eyes, so he will not dislike him because of this, but he still feels uncomfortable.

When Master Song received the letter, he took the envelope and looked at the candlelight for a while, then frowned and replied: If he guessed correctly, this person should be Xue Tong, the prime minister's only son.

He hesitated for a long time, sighed, and the words he wrote were very subtle:

Don't ask me why I know, because in the book I read, he is also one of your suitors.

Xue Tong has an arrogant and domineering personality. He is the same age as Luo Fang and has not yet reached the crown. He is a well-known dude in the capital. With this kind of bastard character who is the first in the world and the second in the old man, even his father doesn't pay attention to him.

In the book, Xue Tong’s role is actually not much. Xue Tong is a little bully. He still fell in love with Song Shu at first sight because he accidentally met Song Shu, and then began to pester Song Shu in an attempt to attract his attention. However, Song Shu would not eat it. This way, the more clever he used various methods to "save the beauty" in front of Song Shu, the more disgusted Song Shu was.

In the end, because Song Shu ascended the throne and did not carry out major reforms to cleanse the court, the prime minister Xue Jiong, who was attached to the emperor, resigned and returned to his hometown, taking his wife and son back to his hometown. .

Song Shu felt that there was a strange sense of yin and yang in his words, like sarcasm, but not like sarcasm, he thought for a while, and a little subtle emotion emerged in his heart——

Master Song is jealous because he has too many suitors?

This... this should be the brother's possessiveness towards the younger brother?After all, they are considered very close brothers, so how could Master Song be happy seeing so many people coveting the baby he raised?

Well, I understand.

But... It's a bit shameful to compare myself to a "baby". Song Shu himself was confused for a moment, and finally chose to burn the letter and go to bed.

A few days later, Song Shu ran into Luo Fang again on the way back to the palace, but this time he was not alone, but a group of people.

Luo Jiao is also among them.

This was the first time Song Shu saw her in so many days.

He glanced at Luo Jiao, who was still looking dull on the surface, and then slowly turned his gaze to the woman who was leading her.

The woman didn't look well maintained. Compared with the concubines who were competing for beauty in the harem, she seemed to be more haggard and thinner. There were only two maids behind her, but her behavior still maintained the self-cultivation for many years.

She glanced at Luo Fang first, then turned her gaze back, and saluted Song Shu - Song Shu was a fourth-rank attendant, and she was on the same level as her current concubine.

"My humble minister Song Ziyu has met Concubine Shu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
