Accompany the prince to study

Wen Daocheng didn't become happy after turning back into the prince.

Because he still has to study hard.

Gu Qiao originally wanted to take the exam by herself, so she signed up for the prince. Although the two have switched back now, no one can guarantee that they will not switch back again.Before the two have figured out the rules of exchange, they can only think about the two development directions of themselves in this body and that of the other party in this body when doing everything.

No matter whether it was for himself or Gu Qiao, the shameless His Royal Highness would never allow himself to get a bad result.

In order to improve his self-control, Wen Daocheng went to Wenhua Hall on the same day. Under the influence of the sound of reading aloud by his companions, he also reluctantly entered the state of not listening to things outside the window and only reading sage books.

The difference between the emperor's mind and the way of being a minister is really not 01:30.

For example, when encountering something, what Chen Zhidao needs to do is to do everything personally, and figure out how each specific thing works; but what Wen Daocheng has learned since childhood told him that obviously it should be to find the most suitable The person who handles this matter will deal with it. If you intervene too much, it will be easy to restrict the thinking of the person in charge.

Wen Daocheng can explain this point with "Xunzi" that "the master knows people, and the ministers know things". The monarch considers knowing people and making good use of them, while the ministers consider being proficient in government affairs.

However, what makes Wen Daocheng puzzled is what is meant by "respectful and humble, obedient and sensitive"?

Problems?

What if the person above is an idiot?Wen Daocheng's creed in life is to do whatever he wants, and he will kill anyone who provokes him!If a person doesn't even have his own opinions, is he still a person? !

But these are the answers that the examiners of the system examination appreciate.

From the perspective of a monarch, Wen Daocheng can actually understand the meaning of asking scholars to learn these words, but if he is really asked to answer questions from this angle, he still feels awkward in how he writes.I couldn't help but review the questions of previous years' imperial examinations, while cursing in my heart that the person who gave the questions might not be mentally retarded.He will be flattering and flattering, and he has no brains!

The more I write, the more aggrieved I get.

Until I gritted my teeth, the pen holder was about to break.

Wen Daocheng has supernatural power since he was a child. When others can only draw three-stone bows, ten-stone bows are already as easy as playing for him.If it weren't for the experience of time-traveling to Gu Qiao, it would be really hard for him to believe that there are people in this world who can be so weak.The body is soft as if it has no bones, as if whoever touches it lightly can make him red or purple.

It's just too fragile.

It's like a bunny dessert that Empress Zhou made for him before. It's white and tender, full of milky fragrance. When you touch it with a small blue spoon, it will tremble flickeringly, making people reluctant to eat it.

Under the prince's gradually revealed bad temper, the whole Wenhua hall became quiet and picturesque, trembling.Everyone is too familiar with this routine, and even some bold ones have already counted down in their hearts, predicting when His Royal Highness is going to be able to bear it no longer.No one knows why the prince lost his temper again, but they can be sure that the more the prince suppresses them, the more serious the consequences will be.

Today is destined to be a day that everyone will remember deeply, because everyone can see that the prince is already hovering on the verge of eruption, but he has been hovering like this for a whole morning, and he didn't vent his anger on anyone.

It's not too bad at all!

While eating lunch, Zhou Shubian, who had been growing more courageous in the past two days, boldly came to inquire about the situation.He was used to staying with Gu Qiao, and always felt that his cousin had changed, became gentle and quiet, although after thinking about it like this, he himself had to laugh for a long time.

Prince?mild?Impossible, impossible in this lifetime.

Wen Daocheng was holding up his chopsticks, but he couldn't eat anything. He found that he had eaten with Gu Qiao these days and healed his anorexia without medicine, and he seemed to come back suddenly without warning.He saw that nothing was fragrant, so he really didn't bother to put a bite into his mouth.

Seeing Zhou Shubian coming in winkingly, Wen Daocheng couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's not what's wrong with me, it's what's wrong with you." Zhou Shubian was really a fool, he just said what was on his mind, "What's wrong with Your Highness?"

In fact, Zhou Shubian didn't expect his cousin to open up with him just because of his words, he just wanted his cousin to vent his anger.It's fine if you let it out, at least you can't hold it in any longer.In the past, if he asked such a stupid question, he would definitely anger his cousin and scold him for not making any progress.

result……

Today is destined to go down in history.

After Wen Daocheng thought about it for a while, he really didn't feel ashamed to ask: "If there is one thing that I don't really want to do, but I have to do it, what should I do?"

"Ah?" Zhou Shubian looked confused, because of this unexpected development, and also because he really didn't understand.Is there anything that can force his prince cousin to do?Who gave you the courage?Emperor Wu?Why are you so kind.

"Tch," Wen Daocheng pouted impatiently, it was really hard for him to bear talking to idiots, it was a waste of time.But he can only tell himself in his heart for the thousand and one time, this is his cousin, this is his cousin, with the heart of a child, the heart of a child, "Let me put it another way, there is a person who wants to do something I don't want to do it, but he will be very happy if I do it..."

Zhou Shubian understood this time: "Then you must really like him very much."

Zhou Shubian repeated both sides to emphasize this liking.

"What?" Wen Daocheng frowned, this time it was his turn not to understand, "I'm just hesitating, how did I get involved in whether I like it or not?"

Uncle Zhou hit the nail on the head: "When have you hesitated for others? No, when have you endured for others?"

Wen Daocheng: "!!!" Enlightenment.

Isn't it just an exam?Test his mother!

***

The third princess and the tenth prince finally left. On a morning with heavy cold dew, they left silently, low-key and embarrassed.

Although they finally left later than the time stipulated by Emperor Wu, at least she and her unlucky brother were really willing to leave, and they never dared to show off their heads in front of the prince.

Lian Wendao was a little surprised that his third sister was actually so honest this time.

Only the third princess knows that she will not be reconciled!

Temporarily avoiding the imperceptible edge of the prince does not mean that she will not radiate the evil fire in her chest to other places.For example, on Gu Qiao and Gu Shizi.

Gu Qiao became the crown prince that day, and he acted against the third princess on the palace road. While the third princess was afraid of the crown prince, she also deeply remembered one thing - the crown prince can change today. It was thanks to Gu Qiao.

This Gu Qiao is really damned!

For the time being, the third princess wanted to pretend to be the little pity of Emperor Wu's father, so it was unlikely that she would make such a big move, but it was still possible to leave some dirty things for Gu Qiao to abuse him.

For example, when Gu Qiao hadn't signed up for the accompanying exam, she had exposed Gu Qiao's existence to Wen Zhuan.

——The accompanying exam is simply a show, the prince has already appointed a certain person, and this certain person will soon be replaced by you, Mr. Wen.

In this news, Gu Qiao's name was not fully mentioned, because if it was stated directly, the gossip would look too much like a long-planned frame-up or revenge.Suspicion and cover-up are the most harmful.

It is said that the default choice is a noble dude who hurt Zhongyong, who has been silent for many years, and somehow fell into the eyes of the prince.

This……

Soon Gu Qiao was checked in and became one of the three most suspected candidates.

Wen Zhuan could not care about these gossip, but some people around him couldn't care less. The small group with him as the axis really couldn't tolerate people other than himself, replacing Wen Zhuan as the No. 1 position in the eyes of the prince.

These sons of aristocratic families who were born and raised in the capital still have some impressions of Gu Qiao, the son of Xianguo. The fear of being dominated by other people's children once again surged in their hearts, and then the other party had already hurt Zhongyong. self comfort.He, Gu Qiao, is nothing at all!

After inquiring again, the prince actually went to the Duke Xian's mansion twice while he was ill. The prince's cousin, Zhou Shubian, that idiot, is a frequent visitor to the Duke Xian's mansion now, which is very unpleasant.

How can he Gu Qiao He De?

The most dissatisfied are those who have flattered Wen Zhuan so much and still haven't been able to make up for the lack of companionship.

Before Gu Qiao knew it, his reputation in a certain small group had been getting worse and worse, and it had plummeted to the bottom.Especially after the red list of the system exam came out, someone managed to find out that Gu Qiao's recommender wrote...himself.

The condition for participating in the system examination is to be recommended by the minister.

For example, Wen Zhuan's recommender is a famous virtuous king with a different surname. Although the prince's companions have to take the exam, the recommender has to be filled out by themselves, and the prince doesn't care about it.

Originally, Wen Daocheng did this because he only wanted to recommend Gu Qiao alone, and he felt that the examiner could understand his hints.

However, Gu Qiao also understood.He thought the prince didn't understand, so he explained: "I know you don't mean that, but if I take your only recommendation to take the exam, how dare the examiner not give me a good rank?"

Gu Qiao wanted to rely on her own strength, real strength.It might be hypocritical to say this, but after being locked up in the small courtyard of the Duke's Mansion for so many years, he really needs such a show to affirm himself.

"Then who recommends you so that it won't look like someone going through the back door?" Wen Daocheng was really anxious, he just wanted to go through the back door!

"Me." Gu Qiao pointed to herself.Theoretically speaking, although he is not Xian Guogong yet, he is already a prince certified by the imperial court, and he is also within the scope of the Duke.

Recommend yourself.

Slightly arrogant.

It's like telling the whole world that I am so confident in myself that no one is better than me.Daqi pays attention to subtlety, as Wen Zhuan didn't even ask him to be recommended by his grandfather who is the Minister of Rites.

However, such an approach is very suitable for the prince: "Yes, except for Gu, no one is worthy of recommending you!"

The prince can be said to be a genius of thinking.With a swipe of his pen, he wrote the name of Gu Qiao, who had finally practiced, on the recommendation post.

This directly poked a hornet's nest.

The exam is about to start, but the young master and his buddies are still feasting on the guests on the Huanlou, and carnival all night long.After a few shots, someone messed up and insisted on letting someone take the invitation to invite this strange man who recommended him, so that everyone can taste it together.

Gu Qiao received such an inexplicable invitation...

Of course I won't go.

He didn't even bother with the person who delivered the invitation, and saw off the guest without seeing him.He was concentrating on preparing for the exam. Although Gu Qiao was very confident in himself in his studies, after all these years of being locked up, he was somewhat nervous, afraid that he would not be able to keep up with the times, and that he would not be as good as others.Only constant reading can make Gu Qiao feel at ease.

Having been refuted with such a big face, the son of the family who invited someone was furious.

It was at this time that someone began to gossip again: "I learned something from the Gu family who was kicked out, and I don't know if I should tell it or not."

"That's right."

"This Gu Qiao is cowardly, timid, and already looks like a listless, skinny smoker at a young age."

Cold food powder was popular in the previous dynasty, which was worth a fortune, and was specially provided to the gentry; but in this dynasty, these are strictly prohibited addictive drugs, but there are still princes of aristocratic families who smoke in private, and the prohibition continues.

Gu Qiao didn't look like he had eaten enough before, and he was indeed a little too thin.

"Now he has suddenly changed his temperament, he seems to be insane. What do you think is the reason for this?"

Inexplicably, Gu Qiao added another label.

"Ha, then let's take a look at that time, this inhuman shapeless bastard! You must laugh at your face!"

More than a month later, the system examination officially began in the Gongyuan in the capital.

The Gongyuan in the capital was rebuilt from the mansion of a certain prince in the previous dynasty.It starts from Gongyuan North Street in the east and starts from Gongyuan South Street in the west. There are several avenues in the north and south. There is a century-old pagoda tree at the gate. It is named Wenchang Huai. place.

At the gate of the Gongyuan today, there is a lot of traffic and crowds.

When Wen Zhuan and his companions came by car, they caused commotion among the examinees, who came to see it.The prince's companions are all dragons and phoenixes among the people, outstanding talents, and have the bonus of family background. They also have fans among the scholars, and there are countless fans.Occasionally, there is even a phenomenon of attacking each other over who is more graceful, which is very interesting.

Every time someone gets on or off the carriage, someone will secretly call out his name and introduce him.The ethos in Beijing has been passed down from the previous dynasty. Everyone can become crazy by throwing fruits and cars, watching and killing Wei Jie.

Until the warmth came down, the atmosphere reached its peak.

There are gangsters, like cuts are like consultations, like cuts like grinding.

But Wen Zhuan didn't take the lead to leave. Instead, he turned around, looked at the carriage, and raised his hand to protect another person from inside.It was a boy about eleven or twelve years old. He hadn't grown up yet. He was a little short, with a little baby fat on his face, bright eyes and white teeth.

No one knew who this person was, so they could only guess secretly that it should be some relative of Wen Zhuan, or an old friend. After all, Wen Zhuan had taken good care of this young man all the way.

Four companions, one teenager, just got together five people to guarantee each other.

Guarantee is an important part of proving identity in imperial examinations. In general imperial examinations, it is only required for children. However, in the exams that have no other procedures and are directly recommended, someone needs to be guarantor.

Five people form a unit.

Only then did everyone suddenly realize that they didn't care much about the identity of the boy anymore.After seeing Wen Zhuan and watching them verify their identities, the most concerned thing of the troublemakers is when the Gu family's son will come.

After a while, the young man beside Wen Zhuan came over and asked curiously, "What are you waiting for?"

"We are waiting for a big smoke... Children don't need to know what it is, just know that it is said that the man looks like a ghost and is very scary. Let's see something new together."

The young man nodded ignorantly: "Who is that man?"

"Does Duke Xian know? The son of Duke Xian, Gu Qiao."

The boy opened his eyes wide, and then said: "Then you don't have to wait, he's already here."

"Where", "Where?" Everyone looked around.

The young man, or Gu Qiao, raised his finger and pointed at himself: "I'm not very talented, my surname is Gu, and the only name is Qiao. My father is Xian Guogong."

"!!!" How the hell did you believe the rumors?

Let me tell you a joke: Gu Shizi with a face like an evil ghost.
