After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 302 I Don't Want

Although Su Xiaomu and Ruowei were talking, both of them shared their thoughts and came out to the gate of the palace.

As soon as he saw the palace gate opened, Su Xiaomu immediately bid farewell to Ruowei and planned to pick up Gu Jingcheng.

And weak also has her own husband to worry about, the two of them have to do the same thing, so they run together quickly.

The students who participated in the palace examination went out one by one, Su Xiaomu stood by the side and looked forward to Gu Jingcheng.

The clothes she wore to Gu Jingcheng today are so conspicuous, it should be very recognizable.

It's just that her eyes were sore, and she didn't see Gu Jingcheng coming out.

Instead, she vaguely heard someone talking next to her, and noticed that many eyes fell on her.

"This is Gu Zhuangyuan's wife? She doesn't look very good looking. How could Gu Zhuangyuan be willing to offend the Holy Majesty for such a woman, and almost let down the number one scholar that he had obtained through years of hard study?"

A student with a beautiful face brushed past Su Xiaomu. He took a deep look at Su Xiaomu. His eyes were so complicated that Su Xiaomu felt an uncomfortable feeling of panic all over his body.

Then I heard someone next to me say: "Perhaps she really did a lot for Gu Zhuangyuan. Didn't Gu Zhuangyuan say that? If it weren't for his wife to help him, take care of his family and take care of his parents, he would never have done it." It will be what it is today.”

"As a wife, isn't a daughter-in-law supposed to do these things? It's unimaginable that Gu Zhuangyuan has a heart of gratitude for the first time."

The students all shook their heads and left, Gu Jingcheng was the last to come out.

When the students who were about to leave saw Gu Jingcheng, most of them stopped in place and whispered about something. In short, few were willing to leave.

Su Xiaomu's heart was still beating non-stop, even more flustered than in the morning.

She raised her eyes and met Gu Jingcheng's gaze. After seeing the smile hidden in his eyes, Su Xiaomu wanted to stiffly pull the corners of her lips and smile with him, but no matter what, Su Xiaomu just felt the corners of her mouth It weighed a thousand catties, and there was even a feeling of wanting to vomit in the chest for no reason.

"Gu Jingcheng."

Su Xiaomu took the initiative to go forward, and now she felt that there were whispers in her ears, and she could still hear them saying that Gu Jingcheng offended the emperor because of her.

"You are inside, what did His Majesty ask you?"

"Your Majesty asked me whether the laws of the country should be stricter or gentler. I said that the laws should be stricter. There is no rule without rules. Only with restraint can one become a talent. This is an eternal truth."

Gu Jingcheng raised his hand to straighten the broken hair on her forehead for Su Xiaomu, and put the broken hair behind her head. His voice was extremely gentle, and his eyes were full of soft light.

"Your Majesty likes my answer very much. The Prime Minister also told Mr. Shao Fu that I may be a person who can really plead for the people. This is probably like what you said. As a parent official, you must always do practical things for the people. Seek truth."

Gu Jingcheng told Su Xiaomu word by word what happened in the imperial study today, but never mentioned that he almost offended His Majesty because of Su Xiaomu.

But there is no airtight wall in the world, and no matter how thick the paper is, it can't contain the fierce fire after all.

Even if Su Xiaomu didn't go to the main hall together, he didn't have the chance to enter the imperial study to meet Tian Yan, so he probably knew what Gu Jingcheng said in front of His Majesty?
"Yes, the parents and officials really want to do practical things for the people and seek practical ways, but what else did you say? I heard them when they came out just now. They said that you almost angered His Majesty because of me. You said it in front of His Majesty What? Did you do something stupid?"

At this moment, Su Xiaomu suddenly felt that her flustered day had finally found the result.

No wonder she has been feeling uneasy today, it turns out that Gu Jingcheng is waiting for her here.

On such an important occasion, when Gu Jingcheng's fate was almost decided, how could he not seize the opportunity to make His Majesty appreciate him more, instead of talking about this matter being related to her?
"I didn't do anything stupid. Everything I did was from my own heart. For me, it is not a stupid thing to stand up for you. Didn't I promise you to give you justice? We have no way Let Dingxihou and his bastard nephew pay the price, but His Majesty can, His Majesty has promised to be the master for us, and all the grievances you suffered before will not be in vain."

When Gu Jingcheng did this, he knew that Su Xiaomu would never allow him to do this.

But he just started from the heart, not only for Su Xiaomu, but also for himself.

"But I don't need you to do this for me. I said that I think about my own affairs. Gu Jingcheng, you are the number one scholar in the imperial examination today, not a lunatic. It’s a matter of interest, if you’re like this, you’re clearly hanging your own head on your trouser belt, don’t you think about your own life and death, and don’t you think about other people in the family?”

At this moment, Su Xiaomu really felt a sense of powerlessness.

She herself is a person with very narrow shoulders, she can't afford Gu Jingcheng's dedication, and she can't be tied to the lives of so many people.

She had already thought about Liu Lu's matter in her heart.

The reason why there has been no movement now is because it has not seized the opportunity to hit with a single blow.

The more Su Xiaomu thought about it, the angrier she became. Her chest was heaving violently, and her face was sullen.

"Cut the grass without eradicating the root, and the spring breeze will regenerate it." Gu Jingcheng said indifferently and decisively, "Maybe you have other ways to avenge yourself, maybe I am too radical, but asking His Majesty to help us take revenge The safest thing in the world is under the imperial power, even if he is Dingxihou, the Manchus will be wiped out in one breath."

The indifference of Gu Jingcheng when he spoke made Su Xiaomu hardly believe that the person in front of him was him.

Is it the first step to become an official if you don't value human life so much, respect imperial power and step on human life under your feet?

Or is it that Gu Jingcheng is born to be a powerful minister, once he has power in his hands, he will never see the suffering of ordinary people again?

Su Xiaomu couldn't believe everything, it was what he thought.

She knew that she was a bit of a dead end now, Gu Jingcheng wouldn't be like this... No matter what, he was kind by nature, and the number one scholar who came out of the common people would hang the common people high in his heart.

Putting aside all distracting thoughts in his heart, Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng with complicated eyes, hesitating to speak.

"Perhaps you have a lot to say, and perhaps the matter really started because of me, but I don't like the way you don't care about your own future, Gu Jingcheng, I told you a long time ago that there is no one in this world who is better than you more important."
