The Regent makes me unstoppable [Transmigration Book]

This was the third time Xie Yu met Sheng Yan.

The first time I took a quick glance at the palace examination, I just felt that the Emperor Daying was too young and lacked the style of a king. How could he hold down a group of veteran officials who had been up and down for decades?Thinking of him, Xie Yu, who was talented and learned, but could not meet Mingzhu to show off his ambitions, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss that his talents were not met.

The second time was at Xinglin Garden tonight. When I first toasted, I felt that the little emperor was very kind when he laughed at Yan Yan, but then the emperor got angry and threatened the subordinates to be obedient, and no one dared not to obey. , Only then did I realize that it turned out that I was blinded by a leaf before and could not see Mount Tai.

The third time was at the Emperor's Yongle Palace.

The Qionglin Banquet turned into a farce in the end. Xie Yu wanted to go out of the palace with other fellows, and go home to discuss with his father and brother how to rescue his grandfather, but before leaving the palace, he was stopped by an inner eunuch, saying that the emperor invited Tanhualang to Yongle Palace one sight.

When Shen Ying returned to the palace, she first took off the cumbersome dress she wore at the banquet, and changed into a light, pure white round-neck gown, with a flying crane embroidered with ink thread on her chest, and auspicious cloud pattern on the hem. Wearing it on him, it is indescribably handsome and elegant.

Xie Yu followed the eunuch who led the way into the study room of Yongle Palace. After entering, he saluted the emperor first: "Mr. Xie Yu, I respectfully invite the emperor to bow to Jin An!"

Sitting behind the desk, Shen Ying raised her hand and said, "I'm safe. Offer tea to Tanhua Lang."

The little eunuch brought a mahogany chair and put it behind Xie Yu, and brought a cup of tea into his hand. After Xie Yu thanked him for his kindness, he sat down, and all the servants left the study one after another, leaving only the emperor and Tanhua in the study discussion.

Shen Ying casually held the teacup in her hand, fiddled with the lid of the cup, and asked, "Xie Yu, are you convinced that Zhenjinke only nominates you as a candidate among the top three in the first class?"

Xie Yu looked respectful and said: "The emperor's wisdom is clear, and the subject is convinced."

Shen Ying took the lid of the cup and brushed off the tea leaves, but didn't drink them. She put down the teacup and said, "I know you have the talent of the champion, but in my heart, you are indeed the best candidate for the champion."

Hearing this, Xie Yu raised his head and glanced at the emperor inexplicably, Shen Ying then said slowly: "The reason why I didn't choose you as the number one scholar was because I was afraid that you would attract attention, especially in today's imperial court, where cliques are prevalent. If you don't If you follow the trend and are too sharp in everything, you will inevitably be hated by others, do you understand my intention?"

After hearing what the emperor said, Xie Yu couldn't help but a trace of surprise flashed between his brows. He didn't expect the emperor to be so far-sighted at such a young age, and he vaguely understood in his heart that the emperor specially invited him to meet alone tonight, and explained to him These are probably intended to attract him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your hard work!" Xie Yu wanted to stand up and thank you, but Shen Ying waved her hand to stop her, and said with a leisurely smile, "Sit down, there is no one else here, so you don't need to be polite. I asked you to come here, and there are other things to discuss with you."

Xie Yu nodded and said: "Please ask, Your Majesty, I will tell you everything!"

Shen Ying picked up a pen that was on the pen holder, and casually scribbled on the rice paper twice, "What do you think of Chen Zirong's cheating in the imperial examination today? Who do you think is helping him cheat?"

Xie Yu's eyes flickered twice, and he hesitated. He didn't have conclusive evidence, not to mention his grandfather was also involved, and he just testified against other court ministers with red mouth and white teeth. It's not sure how the emperor will react after hearing it. However, if he said something that shouldn't be said and offended Longyan, it would be terrible.

Shen Ying didn't raise her head, as if she expected Xie Yu to hesitate, she snorted lightly, "What? I said just now that I want to know everything, but now I hesitate to say it again, so what you said just now is bullying?"

Xie Yu realized the seriousness of deceiving the emperor, and immediately got up to plead guilty, "I dare not!"

After Shen Ying finished writing, she slapped the writing brush in her hand on the table, "Then be honest. Xie Yu, your grandfather Xie Shangshu has been an upright official all his life, don't you also learn how to be courteous and courteous Bullying from top to bottom has failed your grandfather's cultivation of you."

Xie Yu immediately felt ashamed of being slapped on the face. The emperor took the initiative to confide in him, but he looked forward and back and flinched. It was really against his duty to be a courtier, so he stopped hesitating and said in a deep voice: "I think that whoever wants to protect Chen Zirong should be the one behind him, because protecting Chen Zirong is protecting himself."

Shen Ying raised her eyelids and looked at Xie Yu leisurely, her phoenix eyes were bright, a smile appeared on her lips suddenly, and she asked again: "Then who do you think is protecting him tonight?"

Xie Yu was worried that people would hear him, so he took two steps forward and approached Shen Ying, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "I think that Du Chengmei, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, excused Chen Zirong twice, so she must have something to do with this matter! "

Shen Ying raised her lips and nodded to Xie Yu, "I also believe that this matter should have nothing to do with your grandfather."

Xie Yu's eyes lit up, his face beamed with joy, and he bowed deeply to the emperor, "Your Majesty is wise, my grandfather has been incorruptible all his life, and he regards official reputation and reputation as more important than life, and will never help candidates to cheat in the imperial examinations. If anything goes against the teachings of the sages, please look into it, Your Majesty!"

Shen Ying said calmly: "But your grandfather is the minister of the Ministry of Rites and is in charge of all the affairs of the Ministry of Rites. Even if he didn't participate in it, he would still be implicated."

Xie Yu lowered his head and thought for a while, then cupped his hands and said, "Please forgive my humble minister for daring to speculate on the holy will. The emperor summoned the minister late at night to ask more than just these things. If the emperor has something that the minister can use, the minister will definitely do his best to serve the emperor. Seriously, it’s like a minister taking the crime and doing meritorious deeds for the grandfather!”

Shen Ying's eyebrows stretched, her expression was happy, she patted the table and said: "Okay! Sure enough, I didn't see the wrong person! Talking to a smart person will save you trouble."

Xie Yu looked at the emperor's joyful look, and couldn't help but smile, and asked sincerely, "What does the emperor want me to do?"

Shen Ying pondered for a while, and said: "Since this matter is related to Du Chengmei, it must be related to the Grand Master. You also know the current situation of the court. Although I am the emperor, I actually have no real power at hand. I am worried. Under the pressure of the Grand Master, Jin Yiwei may not be able to investigate the case with all his heart, but will only make big things into small things, and finally let it go. Xie Yu, how is your relationship with your classmates?"

Xie Yucai is outstanding in academics and good looks, and is a top candidate. He has a lot of fans in the examinations of this subject, and he has made good friends with many people, but he still said modestly: "It's pretty good to go back to the emperor. .”

Knowing that he was being modest, Shen Ying smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Okay, I want you to spread the news of what happened at the Qionglin Banquet tonight, and incite scholars to go to the Grand Master's Mansion to plead for orders, and demand that Du Chengmei be strictly investigated. Give them an explanation, can you do it?"

Du Qianren wanted to suppress the matter, so he just wanted to make it big. Scholars have the most powerful mouths. When the trouble gets out of hand, under the excitement of the crowd, even if it can't bring Du Qianren down, at least it can hurt him a little bit. muscles and bones.

Xie Yu understood the emperor's intentions at once, and was a little amazed secretly. He didn't expect such scheming and city power behind such a young and immature face. Suddenly, there was a kind of excitement in his body that he had to meet Bole. The idea is wrong, follow the little emperor, maybe you can really do a great job!

Xie Yu stared at the emperor with sparkling eyes, and said loudly, "Your minister leads the decree!"

Shen Ying talked to Xie Yu for a while, and was about to let Xie Yu leave the palace to return home. Just at this moment, Shuo Yu knocked on the door and came in to report: "Your Majesty, Gu Shaojun is here. You have been waiting outside for a long time. You want to tell him Come in?"

Shen Ying frowned, yes, he also told Gu Min tonight, almost forgot about it, so he waved and said, "Let him in."

Xie Yu resigned and came out of Yongle Palace, just as Gu Min came in, the two faced each other.

Seeing Xie Yu's brows showing a hint of joy, Gu Min felt rather disapproving in his heart, but it's just a holy face, so it's worth being so happy?Fuss.My own grandfather is in jail, and he can still laugh, which shows that he is also a confused person.

Xie Yu was happy because he was appreciated by the emperor. When he saw Gu Min, he stopped his smile and became serious. He vaguely remembered that this person was the emperor's male favourite, and he was very fond of him.

Scholars are more or less proud of their talents, and they don't even look down on men like Gu Min who rely on selling their appearance to gain fame and fortune. Xie Yu thought to himself, maybe most of the emperor's reputation for being fatuous and immoral is given by these men. Drag!

However, as a subject, it is not easy to criticize the monarch's private life. Besides, which dynasty does not have three thousand beauties in the emperor's harem?As long as it's not the kind of foolish kings like King Zhou of Shang and King Zhou You who indulged in wine and sex and were delayed by women to destroy the country, it's okay to spoil a beauty.

Both of them didn't like each other very much, they just arched their hands at each other in a perfunctory manner, and passed by.

Gu Min walked into Yongle Palace, and the emperor just came out of the study on his hind legs. When he saw Gu Min, he smiled and said, "Junshu is here."

Gu Min took a deep look at Shen Ying, and stepped forward to salute: "My Majesty, please pay your respects."

"I'm safe." The emperor waved to him and walked into the palace, "Let's go, let's talk in the apse."

Gu Min followed the emperor to the bedroom, entered the inner room, and as soon as the door was closed, Shen Ying's shoulders slackened, as if he had returned to the original lazy little emperor, impatiently took off his boots and fell on the Arhat bed, looking up. Lying down, he sighed and said, "I've been exhausted all day long!"

Gu Min poured a glass of water for the emperor, handed it to Shen Ying, and asked calmly, "Why did the emperor summon Tanhualang late at night?"

Shen Ying didn't pick up the cup, she raised her head and took a sip of water from Gu Min's hand. After drinking, she lay back down again and said lazily, "It's not because of tonight's matter. I know that Xie Shangshu's character is bound to I won't be involved in the imperial examination fraud, but he is the director of the Ministry of Rites and must take responsibility, so I sent Xie Yu over to comfort him."

Gu Min put down the cup and said in a low voice: "Speaking of which, I have never seen the emperor at the Qionglin banquet tonight, I almost thought that the emperor I saw tonight was not the emperor I knew. "

Shen Ying suddenly grabbed Gu Min's sleeve, put one hand behind his head, looked at him with great interest and asked, "What do you think of my performance? Is it very majestic, with the posture of an emperor? It's like a performance on a stage." Like that?"

Gu Min stared at the little emperor's face carefully for a while, then asked puzzledly, "What does the emperor mean?"

Shen Ying raised her eyebrows, and said with a little pride in her eyes: "It means, I'm all pretending, you don't even know, when I said those words in front of the grand master and all the officials tonight, I felt so sad. How nervous my head is, but luckily I didn't show my timidity, and managed to calm down!"

Gu Min frowned slightly, still puzzled, "Is it pretending to come out?"

Shen Ying showed a helpless smile at Gu Min, "Yes, I know that those ministers do not accept me from the bottom of their hearts, if I don't pretend to be stern, how can I scare those old foxes? I want to thank you for your forgiveness, if you weren't here tonight, I wouldn't be able to raise my anger."

Gu Min frowned more and more, "Thank you minister?"

Shen Ying took Gu Min's hand and held it tightly in the palm of his hand, "Thanks to what you said that day, I was awakened. This court has let you down, so you don't want to be an official in the court. It's because I let you down, because I didn't manage the country well. So I want to study hard to be a good emperor for you."

Gu Min was slightly taken aback when Shen Ying finished speaking, the little emperor's change was all because of him?Was it he who gave Shen Ying the belief that she wanted to be a good emperor?

Looking at the little emperor's clear and clear phoenix eyes and innocent expression, Gu Min suddenly felt a tightness in his throat, his heart was hot, and his blood seemed to gradually become hot.

It turned out that he was... so important in Shen Ying's heart?Important enough to make Shen Ying willing to make such a big change for him?

Seeing Gu Min's blank expression, Shen Ying knew that Gu Min believed her words by eight or nine percent, her eyebrows and eyes were bent, and her smile became more sincere.

In the eyes of others, the weak and incompetent little emperor will never rise to become a wise king all at once, so he can only find a suitable reason for his abnormal performance at the Qionglin Banquet tonight, so that people believe that the little emperor is still the same little emperor, The emperor at the Qionglin Banquet was angry, but it was because he was stern and soft-hearted, and someone instigated him behind his back.

And Gu Junshu is naturally the best excuse.

"I'm afraid I offended the Grand Master tonight, alas..." Shen Ying sighed, and suddenly grabbed Gu Min's hand and pressed it on her left chest, "Touch my chest, my heart is beating very fast even now. "

Gu Min felt the regular heartbeat coming from his subordinates, and he was full of vitality. In fact, the speed was not very fast, but for some reason, as if he had been infected, his heartbeat also accelerated.

Gu Min secretly bit the tip of his tongue, ordering himself not to think about it, and wanted to withdraw his hand, but was pressed tightly by Shen Ying, and he couldn't get his wish. He raised his head in confusion, but met the little emperor's smiling expression.

"However, there is still one thing I still can't figure out, why don't you forgive me and help me think about it together?"

Gu Min lowered his eyes and stared at the carved patterns on Luohan's bed, trying to calm himself down, "Please speak, Your Majesty."

Shen Ying said slowly: "Tell me, how did the person who helped Chen Zirong cheat as a ghostwriter manage to help Chen Zirong write the strategy question first? He can't predict what strategy I will come up with in advance, right?"

Gu Min's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He wrote the topic for the emperor. Before the palace examination was announced, it was only passed by him and the emperor. If the emperor asked this question, did he already have doubts about him?

Gu Min raised his long eyelashes and looked at the emperor. Shen Ying still had a smile on his face, and there was nothing unusual about it. If he wasn't too good at concealing it, then maybe he was just asking casually and hadn't suspected him yet.

Gu Min looked away, landed on the hand that was placed on Shen Ying's chest, and said indifferently: "It may not be written in advance."

Shen Ying raised her eyebrows, "Oh? How should I say it?"

Gu Min: "It may also be that someone behind him secretly changed the exam papers for him."

After hearing this, Shen Ying thought for a while in silence, then nodded suddenly and said, "You're right, then I have to ask Jin Yiwei to torture those examiners."

After he finished speaking, he let go of Gu Min's hand, sat up on the Arhat's bed, and said casually: "I drank a little more wine at the Qionglin Banquet, and I'm a little tired. I won't keep you tonight, and you should take it back sooner." Let's rest during Lunar fasting."

Gu Min felt that his hand was suddenly empty, obviously he didn't grab anything, but he just had the illusion that something slipped from his fingertips.

Shen Ying had already stepped off the arhat bed, turned her back to Gu Min and called the little eunuch outside to help him change clothes, Gu Min looked at the back of the emperor who was clearly close at hand, but seemed to be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, suddenly Even my heart became empty.

After all, they can't be honest with each other between their monarchs and ministers.

"My minister retire."
