Ji Qingzhou and Tu Dayou stood beside the crowd, not daring to move for a moment.

Ji Qingzhou lowered his head slightly, and felt a chill suddenly approaching, and the next moment, a black robe embroidered with dark patterns appeared in front of his eyes.Ji Qingzhou smelled the cold woody fragrance from the man, and his heart tightened suddenly, and he couldn't help but think of the scene that happened in Fengxian Pavilion that night in his mind.

That night, his mind was in a mess, and apart from the sharp pain in his body afterwards, he only remembered the burning/hot sensation on that person's body, as well as the faint woody fragrance wafting from his nose.

Li Zhan lowered his head slightly, looking at the boy who was half a head shorter than himself in front of him.

I saw the young man's slender fingers hanging by his side subconsciously clenched into fists. At the same time, his fair neck was also covered with a thin layer of powder, which made the newly added wound from the fight even more red.

"You..." Li Zhan said, his voice was neither happy nor angry.

He looked at the young man in front of him, his Adam's apple moved slightly, barely visible, and he didn't continue talking.

Yao Chang'an couldn't help but feel a sudden shock when he saw the Prince Regent's complexion was gloomy.

He has been working in the palace for so long, he has seen all kinds of people, and he thinks that he almost never makes mistakes when he knows people and employs them.He attaches great importance to Tu Dayou, knowing that Tu Dayou is not smart enough to calculate, and he doesn't know how to use tricks, so he seems a bit out of place in this deep palace... But he doesn't care about these.

He has lived for so many years and has calculated too much, but in the end he likes Tu Dayou's warm heart the most.

At the beginning, Tu Dayou asked him to take Ji Qingzhou in, although Yao Changan hesitated but still reluctantly agreed.

He has never had a good impression of these scholars.Especially in those years with the first emperor, I was used to the intrigues in the officialdom, and I only felt that those who grew up drinking ink were all sanctimonious, and they were most likely to be heartless.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after entering the palace, this young master Ji had such a quarrel with Tu Dayou, and happened to be bumped into by the regent king.You know, if you were a servant in the palace and ran into your master because of a fight, if no one is going to pursue this matter, you can be charged with a misbehavior and kicked out of the palace at any time if you meet a serious master!

"The two little bastards bumped into the prince, why don't you hurry up and kowtow to the prince to apologize!" Yao Changan said sharply.

Ji Qingzhou and Tu Dayou woke up like a dream after hearing the words, and both knelt down and kowtowed to Li Zhan.

When the young man knelt down, he was caught off guard and touched the most secret wound on his body, holding his voice and sucking in a breath of cold air.Tu Dayou on the side was startled when he heard the sound, and he also forgot that the two of them should be rivals who had just finished fighting in front of everyone, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to help Ji Qingzhou. went back.

Tu Dayou's movement is not too big, and it stands to reason that no one else will notice it.However, Li Zhan stood condescendingly in front of the two of them, taking a full view of Tu Da's subconscious little movements, and even heard the boy's inhalation sound clearly at that moment.

"This old slave has not been strict with these two little bastards, and has polluted the eyes of His Majesty and the prince. Please punish him." Yao Changan flipped his robe and knelt down after saying that.

Li Zhan withdrew his gaze from the young man, glanced at Yao Chang'an and said indifferently, "I don't have time to discipline my apprentice for you."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked back to the side of the little emperor.

Yao Changan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, knowing that the regent didn't intend to care about it.

At this time, Dong Dong, who was standing at the top, told everyone about today's arrangements in a loud voice, which was similar to what Ji Qingzhou and Tu Dayou heard before, and he still wanted to choose a servant for the little emperor.However, the way the regent chooses attendants for the little emperor seems very simple and rude...

"You... those who have read and read stand on my left, and those who cannot read stand on the right." Dong Dong said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the servants on the scene began to move to both sides. Ji Qingzhou took a look and found that among so many people in the department, less than [-]% were literate.But he thought about it again, people who can enter the palace as servants are children from poor families, if they can afford to study, they will not go on this road.

"Those who think they are good-looking stay on the left, and those who look ugly go to the right." Dong Dong said to the servants who were [-]% literate.

After all, he was choosing an attendant for the little emperor, so it was reasonable to have some requirements for his appearance.It’s just that there’s no definition of what he’s talking about, so many of the [-]% are hesitant, as if they can’t make up their minds, not knowing whether they belong to the category of OK or not.

Seeing that they were hesitating, Dong Dong got impatient and went to the line and manually dragged those hesitant people to the right.

Ji Qingzhou also hesitated for a moment, his face is painted now, and half of his eyes are swollen by Tu Dayou's hammer. It's really not good, even some hot eyes.Besides, he didn't want to be the little emperor's attendant, so he planned to fish in troubled waters and slip to the right, but Dong Dong grabbed Hou Bo's neck and pulled him back to the left.

Ji Qingzhou: ...

After being beaten like this, can't it stop his handsomeness?

Ji Qingzhou's current appearance is almost exactly the same as before he wore the book. It is no exaggeration to say that this face is really outstanding.But now that he is disfigured, can this person still perceive his handsomeness through his swollen, deformed, red and purple face?

Before he could finish his doubts, he heard Dong Dong say: "Since it can make His Majesty smile, let's keep it for now."

After Dong Dong finished speaking, he also brought Tu Dayou over.

Tu Dayou was originally serving in the imperial court, and his rank as an internal servant was considered very high, so he had no intention of competing with others for this opportunity, but unexpectedly got in by mistake.

"Tomorrow, Mr. Lu will ask Mr. Lu to write a question, and the Secretary of Internal Affairs will preside over it. You will compete in the essay test together, and the top three will follow His Majesty to serve the pen and ink." Dong Dong said.The Mr. Lu he was talking about was the little emperor's current teacher Lu Tingyi, but he was probably jealous that the former Taifu had just been convicted and the current Lu Tingyi had not yet obtained the title of Taifu.

The rest of the eunuchs immediately beamed with joy when they heard the words. This kind of selection regardless of rank or qualifications is a great opportunity for those low-level eunuchs.How many people have worked hard for several years, but they never got the chance to serve in front of the imperial court, let alone such a good job as serving pen and ink.

Among all the selected people, probably only Ji Qingzhou and Tu Dayou couldn't care less about being happy.

"Can our method really get rid of the prince's suspicion for you?" On the way back, Tu Dayou asked Ji Qingzhou.

"I don't know." Ji Qingzhou said: "But we have spent so much time covering up, at least we can show him our attitude."

"What attitude?" Tu Dayou asked.

"The fear of him... and the attitude of keeping things secret and trying to cover up what happened that night." Ji Qingzhou said.

Tu Dayou suddenly realized when he heard the words.At first Ji Qingzhou wanted to use this method of adding injuries to cover up, but he still felt it was a bit abrupt. The regent is not a fool, and only the two of them were injured in the entire internal affairs department. Isn't the result obvious?

But when Ji Qingzhou explained it like this, he understood it instantly.

If the Prince Regent really wanted to find out who was there that night and kill them to silence him, his purpose was just to avoid hurting his face if the incident got out.

And Ji Qingzhou did not hesitate to make himself like this to cover up, which is tantamount to showing to the regent that he will keep this secret at all costs.In this way, although it is impossible to completely reassure the regent, it is better than doing nothing.

"One more thing..." Ji Qingzhou said: "It may be a good thing for you to let the people behind you know that you have a bad relationship with me."

Although Ji Qingzhou didn't ask the mastermind behind the poisoning of Tu Dayou's palace banquet, he thought that the person must be the regent's deadly enemy.In the eyes of outsiders, Ji Qingzhou's identity is the son of the Taifu, and the Taifu and the Regent are teachers and students... After calculation, Ji Qingzhou may already be the Regent's person in the eyes of others.

If Tu Dayou gets close to him, he is afraid that it will cause trouble.

Ji Qingzhou misses his friendship and wants to leave him a way out...

"Qingzhou...you are really smart." Tu Dayou sighed sincerely.

"Don't be too happy." Ji Qingzhou said in a deep voice, "Didn't you find that there is one person missing today?"

Tuda was taken aback for a moment, and then he came to his senses.

Sorghum didn't show up today...

He is missing!

On the streets of the capital, Dong Dong rode a horse alongside the regent.

"My lord, according to my subordinates, the most suspicious ones today are those two apprentices of Manager Yao." Dong Dong said.

Li Zhan's eyes moved slightly when he heard the words, but he didn't answer.

Dong Dong said again: "If you want me to say, why do we bother to guess and guess, why don't we just tie the two of them up, and then take off their clothes and have a look..." Halfway through his words, he felt a cold and stern glance. With a glance at him, Dong Dong realized belatedly that the person he kept saying was going to grab and strip his clothes was the young master of the Ji family...

With the affectionate demeanor of his prince, I'm afraid his teacher's youngest son wouldn't be so abrupt.

"Hehe..." Dong Dong laughed a few times in embarrassment, and changed the subject: "But this young master Ji is also ruthless enough. He dared to fight with Director Yao's favorite apprentice just a few days after he entered the palace. That way, I'm afraid Manager Yao will make things difficult for him now."

Hearing this, Li Zhan remembered Tu Dayou subconsciously going to help the young man.

Those two people obviously have a deep relationship, but they want to play this show of brothers and sisters against each other in front of others...

"This young master Ji is not as rough-skinned and thick-skinned as that one, so it will take a few days to delay the injury." Dong Dong said.

After Li Zhan heard Chen Mo's words for a while, he suddenly said, "Move the essay test to three days later."

Dong Dong was startled when he heard the words, but didn't react for a while.

Why wait until three days later?
