I can't, I can't

Kang Jiangxue paid attention to Zheng Lanyu in advance, of course, because she had the honor of Chuanshu. This source cannot be explained in detail with Sheng Lingyu, so she had to reply in an attempt to cover up: "I heard that one of the candidates in this year won two yuan in a row at a young age. Born from a poor family but full of talent, talent is quite rare, thinking that it may be a talent that can be created, so I just mentioned it, it’s just an example, how can I know it?"

Sheng Lingyu's expression didn't change when she heard this, and she asked again: "I often accompany Your Majesty, but I don't know where Your Majesty heard about it?"

Kang Jiangxue couldn't answer, but she wondered why Sheng Lingyu cared so much about the details: "...Where did I hear that it's important? Anyway, there is such a person, you just need to pay more attention."

Sheng Lingyu finally stopped pursuing, her long eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes, and replied: "Yes."

Kang Jiangxue said everything she wanted to say, and she didn't know what else to do: "Can I have breakfast?"

Sheng Lingyu replied: "Never."

The little emperor nodded relaxedly: "Then let's go together."

Sheng Lingyu nodded, a little lost in thought, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with that look.Kang Jiangxue didn't know what to think, and explained more: "The Queen will take care of it, and I don't bother you very much except going through the motions during the New Year and holidays, just feel at ease."

Sheng Lingyu said: "Lingxi is by His Majesty's side, I feel at ease at all times."

Kang Jiangxue's original intention was to make Sheng Lingyu feel at ease, and Sheng Lingyu's reaction was exactly what he hoped for, and the little emperor felt weird when he came up with something he wanted to hear.

The faint sense of disappointment before seemed to have deepened a bit, like smoke and mist, vague and unclear.The two left one after the other, both thoughtful.

A few days passed by normally, and Lu Qiao was summoned to leave Beijing.

Lu Houye and his wife were extremely reluctant to give up, and they tried to stop and advise Lu Qiao many times, but they couldn't stop Lu Qiao from insisting, and in the end they left two days earlier than planned.

On the day of departure, the little emperor took people to see him off. In addition to Lu Houye and his wife, many other officials were present.Kang Jiangxue followed the whole process, and finally just accepted Lu Qiao's prostration on the chariot, and watched Lu Qiao get out of the city with the back of her horse on her back, but did not find the right time to talk to Lu Qiao.

There is no farewell words, making this farewell particularly unrealistic, and Lu Qiao's lackluster performance spoils the atmosphere.Lu Houye and his wife were so sad that their eyes were red at the gate of the city, but he, the person concerned, looked indifferent, and he didn't seem to have the slightest bit of reluctance or hesitation when he whipped his horse and left.

During the whole process, Lu Qiao didn't talk to the little emperor, that feeling of indifference, as if this was not a farewell, but an ordinary going out.After running for a long distance, Lu Qiao stopped the horse and looked back, and raised his whip in the direction of the imperial city.

She didn't name her name, and she didn't call out, but this time, Kang Jiangxue knew who Lu Qiao was for.

For him, for the little emperor.

Kang Jiangxue had a feeling in her heart, and she stood there for a long time, but Lu Houye and his wife hadn't left yet.

Seeing Lu Qiao off, Kang Jiangxue deliberately didn't bring Sheng Lingyu with her, and didn't want to wait for everyone to leave. Turning around, she saw Sheng Lingyu waiting in the distance.

Sheng Lingyu didn't care about the surprised expression of the little emperor, she put a cloak on Kang Jiangxue and said softly: "It's cold, Your Majesty should go back to the palace earlier."

The cloak exudes a strong warmth, but Kang Jiangxue's heart is suddenly at a loss, because he knows in his heart that the injury Sheng Lingyu suffered from Lu Qiao is not a trivial matter that can be forgotten, and the loss of Sheng Lingxi's lifespan is also It is a sharp knife lying across it, and the conflict between Sheng Lingyu and Lu Qiao is irreconcilable.

Lu Qiao couldn't let go, and Sheng Lingyu was even harder to let go.

But this time is different from the time when he visited Lu Qiao in Mingguang Temple. The little emperor showed his concern for Lu Qiao in front of Sheng Lingyu more bluntly than last time. better?

Kang Jiangxue felt ashamed in her heart, it was hard to say anything, and she couldn't say anything for a while.

Under such circumstances, Sheng Lingyu asked with a normal expression: "Your Majesty's complexion is not good, are you worried about the safety of Lord Lu Xiaohou?"

The tone was so steady, as if she was not asking about her own enemy, Kang Jiangxue was surprised, and finally couldn't help asking: "Aren't you angry?"

Sheng Lingyu paused slightly, and finally understood the joint of the little emperor's question from this question. He let out a faint chuckle, and said lightly: "Your Majesty only needs to consider your own mood, and it doesn't matter what other people think. Other people's affairs should be borne by others, and His Majesty shouldn't be in any trouble."

Listening to these words in another way, it almost agrees and even encourages the little emperor to live a selfish life, just care about himself, and don't care about anyone else.Kang Jiangxue listened silently for a while, and at the end, Kang Jiangxue said in a low voice: "How could I not know that Lu Qiao is wrong, many things are wrong, I know it too well, but I, I..."

Before finishing the rest of the sentence, and Sheng Lingyu didn't ask any questions, he continued the little emperor's words: "Well, he won't die."

Not long after Lu Qiao left, Yang Huo's title was drawn up and made known to all parties. There was no doubt that it was the word "Ning", which meant peace in the world.In order to celebrate the addition of King Ning to the royal family, with the consent of the eldest princess, the Ministry of Rituals began to prepare for a new king conferring ceremony. There was a lot of noise everywhere, another palace was opened, and the album of the noble daughter who was looking for the right family stood at attention. concubine.

For a while, Yang Huo was in the limelight.

Kang Jiangxue turned a deaf ear to the news and didn't bother to care about it at all, all her attention was on the upcoming imperial examination.Taking advantage of Yang Huo's busy schedule and Fu Honglang not taking care of it personally, Kang Jiangxue made the decision and moved the palace examination, which was supposed to be postponed to the next year, two months ahead of schedule, and arranged it for these few days.

There is no other reason for being so anxious, but to win Zheng Lanyu as soon as possible, so as to avoid long nights and dreams. Since Kang Jiangxue knew the plot in advance, how could she let go of this core equipment for clearing the court.

Considering that Zheng Lanyu's personality is super bad, she doesn't speak out, and she doesn't get in touch with her earlier, Kang Jiangxue is really worried that she can't handle it.

With various thoughts in mind, Kang Jiangxue attached great importance to this palace examination, so she booked Sheng Lingyu's time two days in advance, and asked Sheng Lingyu to put down what she was doing and participate with the little emperor.

Speaking of which, it is worth mentioning that Sheng Lingyu has been busy arranging manpower, and now it has achieved quite a lot. The guards around Kang Jiangxue have been replaced one after another, forming a new guard team. This guard team has a new name. As the Twelve Langwei.

The establishment of the Twelve Langwei was undoubtedly very busy, but Sheng Lingyu never said no to the little emperor's request, and went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with Kang Jiangxue early in the morning on the day of the palace examination.

When the little emperor and Sheng Lingyu arrived, row upon row of writing desks, pens, inks, papers and inkstones had already been set up in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. A group of officials and officials stood in rows and knelt down together.

Kang Jiangxue signaled Sheng Lingyu to stand beside her, and Fang said to the following: "Pingshen—"

After finishing speaking, the little emperor's eyes immediately fell on the group of juzi. There were so many juzi, one blocking the other, it was easy to see clearly, but the leader looked ordinary, so he shouldn't be called "Little Yulang" Zheng Lanyu.

It turns out that the standing order is not arranged according to the results... Kang Jiangxue thought to herself, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Sheng Lingyu took the little emperor's change of expression into her eyes, and then silently looked away from the little emperor's face after a while , looking down.

Because Kang Jiangxue was looking for Zheng Lanyu, she couldn't help but pause for a few seconds when she looked at the face of the leader. When she came back to her senses, she inadvertently found that the leader was full of anxiety and nervousness, and couldn't hide it.

The Palace Examination—the last stage of the imperial examination. The emperor sits in the seat, and the senior and respected ministers patrol the invigilation. The questions are opened on the spot, and the candidates write articles and hand in the papers. Numerous officials and the emperor review the papers on the spot and give the results to point out the top three. The fate of everyone present is determined. Such an occasion is more terrifying than the modern college entrance examination, so it is no wonder that you will be nervous.

Kang Jiangxue grew up in exam-oriented education, and she can understand the mood of the candidates taking the exam. She was a little infected by the atmosphere at the moment, and she was no longer impatient. She said a few words of comfort for the first time, and announced: "Sit down , it will start at that time."
