Chapter 432
As for his eldest son, the year before last, he still looked like he was not long in the world. After being healed by the so-called god, he recovered to be like a normal person after a year. Moreover, it is said that all three of his concubines were pregnant. , one of them has been pregnant for more than four months, which is really amazing.

A person who is terminally ill can quietly bribe so many officials in the Sixth Ministry and the Inspectorate, his ability should not be underestimated!
In addition, the emperor also found an interesting phenomenon among these people. Compared with the evaluation of the sixth child, if he wrote that he was a person of King An, then King An's evaluation of that person would be relatively higher, while others would be lower. .

If it is the prince's person, then the prince's score will be higher, and the others will be lower.

As for the fifth son of his family, oh, not counting the fifth son of his family, there are not two scores in his booklet.

After these people had gone through all the departments in the capital, the third prince returned to the Huguo Temple non-stop, and he couldn't even go back to the third prince's mansion. The main reason was that the emperor was afraid that he would make a mistake, and such a long time of cleaning up would be in vain. repaired.

Then there was a big earthquake among the officials in the court. Some were promoted, some were transferred, and some were demoted. There were a lot of vacancies in the court.

Just in time, the spring has begun.

Many candidates from other places rushed to the capital as early as the end of last year. Especially in February, there were candidates from other places rushing for the exam everywhere in the capital. On the eighth day of February, Gu Wanning and Ye Hanyu personally sent Gu Mingxi into the examination room. He ordered while tidying up the equipment, "Brother, don't be nervous and just play normally."

Gu Mingxi smiled helplessly: "Which one of us is nervous? You have checked these things three times, and now it is the fourth time. Don't worry, sister, brother will definitely give you a Huiyuan exam."

Gu Wanning raised her head: "That's not necessary, don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's enough for our family to have a father who honors his ancestors, brother doesn't have to work so hard."

Gu Mingxi choked, yes, his father has only been in Beijing for a long time, and he is already a member of the second rank. Even if he won the first place in the general examination this time, and won the first place in the imperial examination, at most he would be a mixed bag from the sixth grade. The Hanlin of the first rank, wait for him to climb to the position of the second rank, I don't know how many years he will have to wait!

Gu Xian who was standing beside him: ...he didn't know what expression he should give when the girl said this.

"Okay, let's just go in. I think when your father and I took the exam, we went into the Gongyuan alone with a suitcase, and passed the exam for three days and three days in darkness..."

"No wonder Dad only got 35th place in the exam."

"Hey, brat, according to what you mean, your father and I got low grades in the exam because no one sent us, right?"

Gu Mingxi suddenly smiled, "You said it yourself, we didn't say it."

Gu Xian raised his hand in a gesture, Gu Mingxi dodged three times nimbly, then took his own things and hurried to the entrance of the Gongyuan to queue up for inspection.

An angry Gu Xian waved his hands, "Okay, you two go back and do whatever you need to do, and don't pick him up after three days, so as not to make the brat go blind."

Gu Wanning said: "Father doesn't want his daughter to pick him up, but he wants to come in person? Don't worry, my daughter won't fight with you. The prince and I will go to Zhuangzi tomorrow. The sweet potatoes will come out in a few days. My daughter has to watch over them."

Gu Xian nodded: "You two farm the land well. At this time, nothing else is better than farming."

Ye Hanyu understands the deep meaning hidden in his father-in-law's words. The eldest brother and the prince are obviously good brothers, and they are secretly fighting each other. A few days ago, these sons held some kind of poetry meeting. The boss, the second child, the prince, the eldest son Seven or three each went to win over the talent they were looking for. A Jiangnan student named Dong, who had been vacillating, was sacked by someone, and his legs were lame, so he couldn't even participate in this exam.

Ye Hanyu got the news from the fifth prince. The student surnamed Dong was finally rescued by the fifth prince. The fifth prince personally sent someone to investigate. The boss ordered someone to beat him. He made it clear that he could not get it. I don't want to let others take advantage of me, I want to destroy people directly.

Fortunately, after seeing it, the student from the Green Bamboo Gang said that his legs can be cured and he will not be disabled. At worst, he can just wait for three years and take the exam again. At least he saved his life.

The second child also kept making small moves, but not as arrogant as the prince and the boss, but he was careful, such as sending a woman to those he liked, or giving some money to help.

The emperor also knew about these things, but he didn't say anything, just watched these sons tossing silently.

And Ye Hanyu entrusted his concubine's blessing to spend all day on the farm, pretending to take care of the crops. In recent days, he didn't even go to the morning court. On the contrary, no one of the brothers paid attention to him.

"Father-in-law, why don't my son-in-law order someone to pick up my mother-in-law, and let the four of us go to Shiding to have a hot pot together."

Gu Wanning also nodded: "Father, let's go together, it's boring for my mother to stay at home all day."

My mother's family does have a pot, but the atmosphere of eating in the store is definitely different from eating at home.

Gu Xian smiled and said: "Okay, according to you, I will go to eat the tripod tonight." The marriage emperor gave him a good gift, Yu County King has no pretensions, and he treats their husband and wife like ordinary old men, with respect and respect. He is kind, not as aloof as other princes, if he can keep it up, he will be relieved.

Mrs. Gu came a little slower. After all, when a woman goes out, no matter how old she is, she has to dress up, let alone having dinner with her daughter and son-in-law. Of course, she changed her clothes and reapplied her makeup before she came out.

Mrs. Gu is 36 years old. Although she is a mother of two children, her life is going well. She doesn’t have to worry about the outside world, so she looks younger. With a little dressing up, people who don’t know think she is a woman in her 20s. people.

As soon as he entered the dining hall, shopkeeper Zhang greeted him, "Excuse me, is this Mrs. Gu?"

Madam Gu nodded.

"Madam, please come with the younger one. The prince and princess ordered the younger one to welcome the madam here."

No wonder the prince repeatedly told him to wait for Mrs. Gu's arrival. Mrs. Gu's appearance is so outstanding that she can't complain that she can give birth to a daughter as beautiful as the concubine.

When the shopkeeper led Mrs. Gu up to the second floor, there was a burst of exclamation from the hall downstairs: "Hey, I'm still watching, the wine is all spilled!"

It turned out to be a businessman from out of town, who was attracted by Mrs. Gu's appearance, stared blankly for a moment, and spilled all the wine in the jug.

"I'm just kidding, I just looked at this lady with some familiarity, but I couldn't remember where I saw it."

The person at the same table smiled and said: "You are too careless to make excuses. It's okay, okay, hurry up and ask for another pot of wine, and you will waste that pot."

The businessman's face darkened immediately: "I'm not kidding, this lady looks really kind, but I just can't remember where I saw it."

Someone reminded the businessman: "That is the mother of Princess Yujun, the wife of Mr. Gu Shi, who is the right governor of the court. Be careful what you say, don't offend people. You don't know how you offended."

The businessman's face became even darker. He said this as if he had taken a fancy to that lady's beauty, but God knows, he just looked at the familiar face of that lady Gu.

"Forget it, drink hot food, and you won't believe me when I tell you."

Mrs. Gu didn't know what happened downstairs. She heard that the crops on her daughter's village were about to ripen, so she insisted on going with her. After eating the hot pot, Mrs. Gu tried to persuade her, but she finally dispelled her thoughts. .
