Reborn imperial concubine

However, after Zheng Yan was reprimanded by the second emperor's daughter, he begged for forgiveness repeatedly, and was fined to kneel beside the stone lion on the west side of the gate of the Imperial College to reflect.

The two guards guarding the gate knew his temper, so they didn't dare to stand and watch him suffer, but they couldn't find any cushions for their knees.

The two discussed in fear and had no choice but to take off the plain undershirts under their gray-blue uniforms and use them as knee pads for Zheng Yan.

Serving like this, but it can't stop the curious eyes of the people who come and go.

Zheng Yan had always been arrogant and domineering, how could he have suffered such humiliation, he turned over and sat down next to the stone lion, staring at the two guards with a pair of bull's eyes like copper bells, and ordered: "You guys stay on guard, Seeing His Highness the Second Highness go out, immediately report to the Lord, if you dare to make a mistake, you will suffer!"

The two guards hurriedly bowed in response.

At this time, Jiang Han has not yet entered the school.

Just now she was curious about why the eldest prince sent people to the Imperial College, and it was inconvenient to ask directly, so she walked around the porch of the West Flower Hall, only to find that the courtyard in the hall was crowded with servants uniformed by the Ministry of Industry , carrying loads of soil in and out.

What is this for?

Jiang Han stepped into the gate suspiciously, and the supervisor officer caught a glimpse of the visitor from the corner of his eye, looked back at him, was surprised and delighted at once, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said: "Wu Guisheng, the Minister of Cleaning Officials of the Ministry of Industry, respectfully invite the Second Highness Wanan!"

Jiang Han nodded his head and pointed to the pit in the middle of the courtyard and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Wu Guisheng replied courteously: "Your Highness, we are building an artificial fountain of running water in case the Holy Majesty comes to review the achievements of all the students."

Jiang Han took a deep breath, and sighed to himself: "It turned out that it was to make my father happy, and my brother really bothered."

Hearing that the Second Highness had already learned that this was the eldest prince's idea, and his tone was not kind, as if he was dissatisfied, Wu Guisheng's bent back suddenly tensed, and a surge of blood in his chest rushed to the top of his head.

He felt that his chance had come!

As Qi You's Jinshi for 17 years, Wu Guisheng had been in office for more than ten years before he got a job as a doctor in the fifth-rank Ministry of Industry.

Not to mention that there is no oil and water to fish for, and this morning he was bossed around by a military officer who is also a fifth rank. At this moment, his chest is full of anger and he has no way to vent it.

When he was just supervising the work, he secretly figured it out, only felt that Zheng Yan's arrogance was due to the eldest prince's face.

Although Wu Guisheng is not considered a high-ranking official in the capital, he is well versed in the way of making a living. He has long seen that the eldest prince is a man of great success and has no real talent or learning. Seventy percent will not be passed on to the First Prince.

Therefore, instead of licking your face and rushing to burn the eldest prince's hot stove with this group of headless flies, it is better to wait for the opportunity to observe whether there are any talents worthy of great responsibility among the other princes, and then choose the best to invest in others. Under the door, focus on burning hot and cold stoves, and give it a go, so as to ensure the prosperity of the future official career!

I don't know if it was God's will, but Wu Guisheng was meditating to himself, thinking about the extraordinary talents and noble nature of the second princess, when he turned his head and saw Jiang Han in casual clothes, walking into the courtyard, it was like a god-given opportunity, like destiny!

Therefore, as soon as he heard that the second imperial daughter's tone was not good, he clenched his fists, took a step forward bravely, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the Second Highness clearly learned that this move by the First Prince is really against the Holy Majesty's original intention of reviewing students, and it can only be called Just icing on the cake!"

Jiang Han was startled when he heard the words, and glanced sideways at the flushed face of the fifth-rank official under the brim of his hat, thinking for a moment in his heart, then raised the corners of his lips and said: "The icing on the cake? Master Wu is really polite." , Father is just thinking about the relationship between father and son, and will not go into details, in the eyes of outsiders, this move is really superfluous."

Hearing the second emperor's statement, the corners of Wu Guisheng's mouth twitched excitedly, his heart was filled with passion, and the corners of his mouth were already moaning excitedly, unable to speak.

With a calm face on Jiang Han's face, he turned around and stepped out of the courtyard leisurely, walking towards a secluded place, Wu Guisheng hurriedly followed behind him.

Recently, in the court, many important ministers were dissatisfied with the eldest prince's behavior, and they wrote letters to remonstrate. Jiang Han had already learned about this, and he couldn't help but feel a little turbulent.

In addition, this imperial brother usually only knows how to flatter his father, enjoy dancing and enjoy himself, and rarely studies academics and martial arts.

Last year's essay test in the Imperial College, the answer sheet handed in by the eldest prince was too much for the chief examiner to look at directly, and he couldn't bear the pressure of public opinion even if he wanted to release water.

This made Jiang Han more and more convinced that the eldest prince could not afford the country brought down by his ancestors.

And the praise and support of many ministers these days seems to make that dazzling dragon chair, which people dare not look at directly, no longer so far away, how can Jiang Han not be moved!

Jiang Han had long wanted to test the support of the people in the court, but now seeing that the fifth-rank official showed his intention to take refuge, he deliberately walked to a corner where no one was around, and wanted to have a detailed talk with him.

Wu Guisheng has been closely following the Second Highness's footsteps, and when he was standing still, he boldly raised his head and glanced at the Second Highness's face, thinking about it for a while, he really didn't dare to speak rashly, so he respectfully waited for the Second Highness to speak first.

Jiang Han sneered in his heart. He had seen through this person's mind long ago, so he went along with him, and deliberately said: "Speaking of which, the eldest brother is too concerned about the situation, but I don't know that the greatest wish of the father is to see him show his talents as soon as possible. Only by focusing on people's livelihood can you feel at ease."

Hearing this, Wu Guisheng felt that there was no need to wait, swallowed, and replied in a deep voice: "Forgive me for speaking boldly, the Holy Majesty may not only expect one of His Highness to take responsibility!

I think my great Xia Dynasty lasted for thousands of years, and I have always had the ancestor's motto of establishing the virtuous but not the elder. "

What he said was very blatant, but Jiang Han's face was still calm, he was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "Well, I hope that the eldest brother will understand this soon."

Wu Guisheng couldn't help raising his eyes, and impatiently said: "According to my humble minister, His Highness may not understand, it's just that everyone has their own ambitions, and His Highness's own abilities are limited, so you are not as talented as Second Highness..."

"Presumptuous!" Jiang Han frowned and scolded in a low voice.

Wu Guisheng was so frightened that he almost bit his tongue and shut up hastily, only then did he realize that what he said was presumptuous, if he continued to say more, it would not be an exaggeration to use the name of conspiracy to usurp.

After regaining his senses, he hurriedly knelt down on the ground, sweating profusely and shouted: "My minister's slip of the tongue! My minister's slip of the tongue!"

Jiang Han sighed lightly, changed his tone, and comforted him: "I also know that you are worried about the country, and it is possible to get angry for a while, and I will forgive you this time."

Wu Guisheng repeatedly kowtowed to thank him, and when the second princess told him to lie down, he quickly raised his sleeves, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stood up tremblingly.

After some probing, Jiang Han decided that this person wasn't opportunistic or just playing around with the wind, but really wanted to take refuge in her.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Han immediately showed his sincerity, bent over to help him, and asked kindly, "How long has Master Wu been working in the Ministry of Industry?"

Wu Guisheng was reprimanded for his unscrupulous words, and now he was supported by the second emperor, as if he had been beaten with a stick and fed a sweet jujube. He couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude, and almost choked up, he replied: "My minister is from Jinling. It has been 12 years since the Ministry of Officials was transferred to Beijing."

Jiang Han nodded, pretended to think for a moment, and sighed: "I just listened to the opinion of the adults, and I really have the talent for doing things. It should be a job in the Ministry of Officials, which is more suitable."

Wu Guisheng's eyes opened sharply, and he could hear the intention of the second princess to support him. He felt joy from the sky, but he didn't dare to thank him openly, so he had to kneel down again and said: "I wish to benefit the society and serve the future virtuous king!"

Jiang Han didn't point it out when he heard the words, he only raised the corners of his lips, and helped Wu Guisheng himself.

It was almost three o'clock in the morning, and the preparatory school had already quieted down, waiting for the teacher to arrive.

Gu Sheng was so frightened by the little scum and an earthworm that he felt sad. He had already lay down on the table and cried silently, only sobbing softly.

His Highness Nine stared blankly at the earthworm in his hand, looking a little at a loss, from time to time looked aggrieved at the maids and nannies outside the window, blinked his shallow pupils, and waved his little hands , Muttering denial in his mouth: "I didn't cry alone..."

It caused a group of court ladies to rush in and give them a hug!

Not long after, Gu Sheng heard the classroom suddenly quiet down. Knowing that the teacher had arrived, he reluctantly rubbed his red eyes from crying and stood up to do it. Only then did he realize that the little scum who had just frightened her was still staring at him. voila.

After calming down, Gu Sheng knew that he had lost his composure, so he hurriedly turned his head and looked nervously at His Highness Ninth Prince.

Seeing her turn around, His Highness Ninth Prince was even more nervous than her, shrinking his neck, as if he was worried that Gu Sheng would cry again inexplicably, and was so frightened that he almost strangled the earthworm in his hand...

Seeing the helpless look on the little guy's face, Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing out of tears.

Thinking of her gaffe just now, she hurriedly wanted to make amends, but she didn't dare to "ground the dragon with bare hands", so she picked up the school bag from the desk, leaned her head to His Highness Jiu, and whispered: "Thank you His Highness Jiu for the reward, Put it in!"

Although His Royal Highness Nine is incomprehensible, he is very sensitive to other people's emotions. At this time, he realized that Sister TangGao's emotions had recovered, and recalled the fright and neglect he had suffered just now. Talking to Gu Sheng, it seems that he wants to "take back the reward" angrily...

Gu Sheng was so teased by the little guy's awkward appearance that he covered his mouth, held back his laughter and trembled, then lowered his head after a while, and apologized sincerely: "Your Highness, I know I was wrong, I feel unwell today, Just now I ignored His Highness, please forgive me, and reward the earth dragon to the servant, okay?"

His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince was unmoved, still with a swollen face of "lonely and angry", and he didn't even glance at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng begged for forgiveness for a long time, and against her will, boasted that the earthworm in the little scum's hand was cute, but it still didn't work. She had no choice but to resort to a deadly method and took out almond and date paste cakes from her bosom...

Gu Sheng didn't divide it into small pieces today. In order to please His Royal Highness, she directly wrapped a whole two-inch square sugar cake and handed it to His Highness Ninth.

Unexpectedly, this little guy...had no backbone at all!

Gu Sheng was taken aback, and thought he had finished speaking, he was really angry!

Thinking about it, Gu Rao has been treating her with courtesy recently, most likely because of her status as the companion of His Highness the Ninth Prince.

But thinking about myself, not only did he not spend his time coaxing this little guy well, but he always disliked other people's rewards, brought some food every day, and raised his super-grade Huangjue like a puppy...

Feeling guilty, Gu Sheng looked eagerly at His Highness Ninth Prince's angry little bun's face, and suddenly, she handed the sugar cake in her hand to the little guy's mouth...

When His Highness the Ninth Prince saw the sugar cake by his mouth, he had such an expression of "Long Yan was furious"... he instinctively bit it down!

As soon as he bit his mouth, Gu Sheng clearly noticed that the little guy's expression became very embarrassed, with a look of unwillingness that "he was tricked by himself".

But after all, he was bitten, so His Royal Highness had no choice but to gnaw a whole piece of sugar cake in Gu Sheng's hand reluctantly.

Gu Sheng raised his hands sorely, but he didn't dare to move, and tears flowed in his heart—this is over, she and Liang Zi, who hated the emperor, are completely tied!Jiang Han may not be able to keep her!

After His Royal Highness finished eating, Gu Sheng didn't even dare to wipe the saliva off his fingers, he straightened up the textbook, buried his head in the book with a blushing face, and secretly felt hurt.

After one class, Gu Sheng put away the book, and was suddenly startled by the "object" directly in front of the book, gasping for air.

She widened her eyes and took a closer look, the black one was the earthworm that had been pinched by His Highness just now...

The corners of Gu Sheng's eyes twitched, and he slowly turned his head to look at His Highness Ninth Prince, only to see this little guy's proud expression of doing good deeds without leaving a name...

Gu Sheng knew that this was a "show of favor" from His Royal Highness Ninth Prince, so he was very grateful and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your generosity!"
