Li Guo turned his head and said to his son Li Wenfeng, "Wenfeng, you go to Wende Hall first with Cheng Dashi, because you have something to talk to Wang Zhuanxiu alone for your father." This was said to Li Wenfeng, but The three people present also understood the meaning of Li Guo's words, which meant to let the others go first.

Wang Xiangqing didn't understand why he had to be left alone for this first meeting.Su Yi glanced at Wang Xiangqing, turned his head and said to Li Guo, "Then I will leave first." After hearing what his father said, Li Wenfeng looked Wang Xiangqing up and down in confusion, "I didn't see Wang Xiangqing What's special about Xiangqing, except that Wang Xiangqing is the number one scholar in the new division. '

After hearing Li Guo's words, Cheng Si said to Wang Xiangqing, "Editor Wang, this Prime Minister Li is the pillar of the country, the minister of the humerus, and the elder of the two dynasties. He must have something important to entrust to you. You should learn from Prime Minister Li." After speaking, Wang Xiangqing and Li Guo were left behind, and Li Wenfeng and Su Yi went to Wende Palace first.

Li Guochao and Wang Xiangqing smiled implicitly and stroked his beard. Wang Xiangqing thought he was going to say some great truths, but he didn't expect to say, "My lord, I heard that the emperor has taken a fancy to you." You, I want you to be the princess."

"Uh" Wang Xiangqing twitched the corners of his mouth, showing a helpless and embarrassed smile, and said, "Prime Minister Li was joking, the next official is an editor of a small Imperial Academy, how can he be worthy of the princess, let alone the princess? I won't fall in love with me!" I thought in my heart, as a woman, how can I still be a princess, if I really get together with the princess, I guess I will be raped and beheaded the next day after we get married.

Li Guo smiled again, "Your Majesty Wang was born as the No. You are the son-in-law."

"This, this, this... Prime Minister Li, I have never met the Eldest Princess, so why did the Eldest Princess choose an official to be her son-in-law?" Wang Xiangqing was puzzled, thinking to himself, 'Could it be because I won the number one prize?This eldest princess is too casual! ’ Immediately thinking that she was going to marry Murong Min as his wife, I was even more worried.

When Li Guo saw Wang Xiangqing, he first looked puzzled, and then his face was full of worry, and he was sure of one thing in his heart, "Master Wang, didn't my son and the three of you meet the emperor in Jiying Hall yesterday?" ? The eldest princess is behind the screen."

Wang Xiangqing was startled when he heard this, and then he understood, "It turns out that the eldest princess met us at that time. Thinking about Su Yi's appearance is mediocre, very ordinary, and his appearance is similar to Li Wenfeng's, but There was very little expression on Li Wenfeng's face, most of the time he was cold, and he was still the champion of the new department, so he was most likely to be attracted to him. Wang Xiangqing regretted so much, he could only wail in his heart, "If I had known that I would also follow Li Wenfeng, my whole face would be paralyzed!" '

Wang Xiangqing wanted to cry but had no tears. He didn't know how to answer Li Guo's words, so he could only pretend to look up at the sky and said, "Prime Minister Li, we are going to be late for the court. Let's go." When he got the news he wanted, he nodded and said, "Well, this morning is about to begin."

On the way to Wende Hall, Wang Xiangqing's heart was restless and restless, and he couldn't calm down no matter what.The most worrying thing in my heart now is whether the emperor will issue an order to force the marriage for the first time in court. 'It's over, it's over, there is a tenth chance that you will be forced to marry!In modern times, parents forced marriages, and parents forced marriages to be postponed. In ancient times, one could not delay or refuse, or one would die! '

After entering the Hall of Wende, Li Guo walked to the front of the civil servants, while Wang Xiangqing was at the end of the civil servants, standing with Su Yi and Li Wenfeng.After a while, a eunuch shouted, "The emperor is here~" After shouting, he saw the little emperor leisurely entering the Wende Hall and walking towards the dragon chair.Seeing the tired look on the little emperor's face, Wang Xiangqing really wanted to make a suggestion, can the court be changed to Chenshi from now on!

When the little emperor sat down on the dragon chair, Wang Xiangqing knelt down along with the crowd and said, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Wang Xiangqing peeked at the generals next to him, "It's better to be a general, just kneel down." Kneeling and clasping fists to salute, unlike us civil servants who have to kneel on both knees and bow to salute. '

It wasn't until the little emperor said, "Everyone who loves you is free of courtesy", that they, the courtiers, could stand up, otherwise they would have to kneel all the time.When all the ministers got up, the emperor asked leisurely, "Dear dear ministers, is there something important that you want to play at the court?" Things, the emperor will also speak out in the morning, and discuss with the courtiers.

Under normal circumstances, the courtiers would choose to write an excerpt, unless there was no time to write an excerpt due to an incident, and they could only play the imperial court.This is like the sentence in the past, "If there is something important, it will be played at the court", and all the courtiers are silent.Seeing this, Wang Xiangqing felt happy, "This is really similar to when I was studying in the past. The teacher asked the students on the podium if they had any questions to say, and the students all bowed their heads and remained silent." '

The little emperor glanced around and saw that there was no one to play. If it was as usual, he would have said directly, "Since there is nothing to start to play, then retreat to the court." However, what he said today was not the sentence , but, "Since the lovers have nothing to say, then I will say one thing."

All the officials didn't know what important matter the emperor had to say, but Li Guo and Wang Xiangqing were the only ones.Li Guo understood that the emperor was going to announce the selection of the son-in-law, Princess Shang, but Wang Xiangqing vaguely felt that the emperor must let himself be the son-in-law.Just like when I had to answer questions in class before, the teacher said who would answer this question next. If I would be called, I would definitely have an inexplicable fear in my heart, and I could feel that my name would be called next.

Sure enough, the emperor called his name, Wang Xiangqing just recalled the fear when he was studying, when he heard the "Wang Xiangqing", his body trembled involuntarily.Hearing the emperor calling him, Wang Xiangqing had no choice but to bite the bullet and go out, bowing and saying, "My minister is here"

The little emperor did not directly continue to say anything, but looked up and down Wang Xiangqing, who was wearing a light green seventh-rank official uniform, and sighed in his heart, "It still looks more handsome when he was wearing a white robe yesterday." Then he said, "Wang Aiqing, step forward twenty steps." Wang Xiangqing was standing at the end of the rank of civil servants, far away from the emperor. The little emperor thought that what he was going to say next was very important, so he asked Wang Xiangqing to stand forward .

Wang Xiangqian stepped forward twenty steps and stood next to Li Guo, the head of civil servants, waiting quietly for what the little emperor would say next.Seeing this situation, everyone thought that Wang Xiangqing was the champion of the new discipline, and also thought of what the emperor said at the previous annual meeting about choosing a son-in-law for the eldest princess, and thought that this must be the announcement of Wang Xiangqing as the son-in-law.

When Wang Xiangqing stood still, the little emperor said, "Wang Aiqing is the number one scholar in this imperial examination, and she will be the pillar of the country in the future. Today, I will bestow a marriage on Wang Aiqing."

Unexpectedly, before the eunuch opened the imperial decree, Wang Xiangqing bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I already have someone I love."

Hearing this, the whole court was in an uproar, this is naked|naked|naked|refusing the emperor's marriage offer!Anyone with a little brain knows that the emperor's marriage must be the eldest princess.The eldest princess' son-in-law that everyone wanted, Wang Xiangqing actually refused with the words that he already had a loved one.Although this was rejected, everyone also understood that as long as the emperor issued a decree, regardless of whether you have a loved one, you have to marry whoever you are asked to marry.

Standing behind the screen of the dragon chair, Murong Min heard Wang Xiangqing said that she already had a beloved, and understood that she was talking about it, and smiled inwardly, "Xiangqing is really willing to refuse to be a son-in-law for me. Courage is commendable."

Murong Zhi thought that his sister-in-law said that she liked Wang Xiangqing yesterday, and thought that no matter what, she would make Wang Xiangqing a son-in-law. Xiangqing married the eldest princess.At this moment, Li Guo came out and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

'This old fox, do you want to take this opportunity to propose marriage to your son? Thinking of Murong Min standing behind the screen, Murong Zhi tightened his hands on his knees, but he could only say, "Zunzuo"

Unexpectedly, this Li Guo did not propose marriage to his son Li Wenfeng, but said something that made the whole court even more uproarious, "Your Majesty, I have learned that this Wang Bianxiu does have a lover, and he is a lover." Man. I want to tell the emperor that Wang Bianxiu has a habit of breaking sleeves, and Longyang is good!"

All the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at Wang Xiangqing with contempt in their eyes.Su Yi just remembered at this time, it turned out that this Wang Xiangqing was the one who hugged a man at the gate of the Gongyuan after the imperial examination that day, no wonder he looked so familiar from the back.After the scientific examination that day, another examinee who came out of the Gongyuan together said to him, "Look, isn't that Wang Xiangqing from Fancheng sitting next to me? Why is he hugging a man in a large crowd? That posture looks like Holding the one you love..."

At that time, Su Yi didn't take a closer look at what the two embracing men looked like, but just took a few glances and left without paying attention.At that time, he only saw Wang Xiangqing's back and profile, so that when he saw Wang Xiangqing later, he felt familiar but couldn't remember where he had seen him.

Wang Xiangqing knew that even if he said he had someone he loved, the emperor would let her marry the princess, and he had already planned to say that he had Longyang's love for a man, so as to completely cut off the emperor's and the eldest princess' thoughts, who knew Prime Minister Li actually spoke for her first, and he had no resentment towards Li Guo in his heart, but gratitude.Seeing the expression of gratitude on Wang Xiangqing's face, Li Guomin couldn't figure it out for a while, "I said he likes men, why is he so happy looking at it!"Even if you don't want to marry the eldest princess, you don't have to do this...'
