I, who disguised myself as a woman, turned out to be a queen! ?

Chapter 148 [The domineering talented man falls in love with the shy empress]

Especially what frightened Xun Kuang was that His Majesty is still looking at him.

I didn't participate in anything, and Enke, although I was appointed to judge the questions and judge the papers, I was just a little follower of the sacrificial wine.

I didn't do anything, and I didn't get involved with Yang Guofu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry.

wait
The teacher caused me trouble outside again, and let me take the blame? !
Xun Kuang was in a disturbed mood, and he didn't dare to look at His Majesty again. He lowered his head and begged the saints to make sure that his teacher didn't cause trouble again.

Xia Fengxiang looked at Xun Kuang and wanted to laugh, so he ignored the Grand Tutor and said to Xun Kuang, "Xun Siye."

Xun Kuang immediately saluted tremblingly.

Xia Fengxiang said: "You should also know the people Yang Guofu greeted, whether those people have real talents or not."

Xun Kuang was startled, and immediately said something that would not offend people on both sides: "Return to Your Majesty, I think that since Ouyang Wenhua, Yu Yang and others can go to Beijing to take part in the examination, they are talented. After chatting for a few words, I have some talent. If you answer the questions carefully in the exam, considering your majesty's greatness this year, and thinking of the reason for the empress, you should be able to pass the exam. I think Mr. Yang thinks that These few people are so kind, it would be a pity if they failed the ranking, so I specially said hello, after all, no money or property was confiscated."

What Xun Kuang said is not accurate, but it does not offend both sides.

But which of the people present didn't realize that there was something in Xun Kuang's words.

He not only praised the people like Yu Yang, saying that they are talented, but also emphasized that His Majesty Long Enhaodang gave the name of kindness and these people can be admitted, so wouldn't it mean that if they didn't give the name of kindness, these people would be a bit dangerous?

But at this time, it was said that Yang Guofu felt that these people were a pity, so he really asked someone to take care of them to prevent them from failing the ranking. Doesn't this prove that what His Majesty said was correct, and Yang Guofu did so.

But he interceded for Yang Guofu and said that the money was also confiscated, just a greeting.

After saying that, Xun Kuang sighed, and then said: "Your Majesty, I think it should be because the scientific examination is coming soon, the spirit and mood of the students will inevitably be affected, and they have studied hard for decades, just for one day. The scientific examination will inevitably make the students think about walking. The mistakes made by the students are the fault of my husband. After I go back, I will enlighten Yu Yang, Ouyang Wenhua and others. Therefore, I think that the students have gone astray like this , it is the fault of the minister, and please Your Majesty to blame."

At the end of the sentence, he bowed deeply to Xia Fengxiang.

Don't offend both sides, and any mistakes will be your fault.

But whether you are really wrong, everyone can see clearly.

But is it important to be wrong?The important thing is to ease the atmosphere in the court and think for His Majesty.

Su Wenqing pursed his lips, shook his head with a smile, he was like a scholar who wandered in Huajie and Liuxiang, and he was very sophisticated in the world.

Su Zimu smiled, but also sighed, no wonder his younger brother has been played by Xun Kuang all the time.

Li Jiulang didn't speak, just stood quietly, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

The Tai Tuo still bowed his body, but he knew that he would beat that traitor to death when he returned home!

Xia Fengxiang looked at Xun Kuang and raised the corners of his mouth, then looked at Taifu and said, "Taifu, please get up. It's not good for your waist to be hunched over like this when you're old."

The Tai Tu didn't move: "Your Majesty doesn't convict me, and I dare not get up."

Xia Fengxiang smiled: "Xun Kuang said it was his own fault, and it has nothing to do with you. However, it is the fault of not raising the father, and the laziness of not teaching the teacher strictly. Xun Kuang and others, the gentlemen of the Imperial College, sent the student Yu Yang , Ouyang Wenhua and others have taught enough qualifications to take the exam, they are not lazy. Yang Guofu is like this, it is also your fault, so I heard that the sales of Guozijian periodicals are not very good recently, and there are several schools to be built in Muxu The work is about to start, but the wages have been delayed, so I have to collect money everywhere. Your family has been to a lot of salt tax ships before, and you can take out some to pay for the schools, and then call that Yan Shu, Wei Zijian, right? .”

Having said that, Xia Fengxiang looked at Xun Kuang.

Xun Kuang bowed immediately: "Yes."

Xia Fengxiang went on to say: "I've seen those people. They were born in the Han family. Every day in the Imperial College, they either work in journals in exchange for wages, or go to the Imperial College to copy books in exchange for money. You took some money to build those schools. Let Yan Jingqing give some money to poor students like Yan Shu and the others."

Xun Kuang looked at Xia Fengxiang, a little ecstatic, because His Majesty said it, can the Tai Tuo do it?

My teacher doesn't have to worry about getting angry!

Finally, he no longer had to think about Fa Ke deducting his little salary.

The Taifu bowed deeply and said, "My lord, I will personally deliver the money to the Lord Jijiu when I return."

Xia Fengxiang didn't say anything, returned to the dragon chair and said: "Science research is the foundation of the country, there must be no mistakes, this year I will forgive you, I hope all the ministers will work together, and don't let the students study hard and get contaminated thing."

All the people in the hall bowed one after another: "The ministers must live up to the grace of the saints."

Xia Fengxiang said: "Xun Kuang and Taifu go back, the matter will be done tonight, so that Master Jijiu will not get angry in a hurry. Su Zimu will also go together, and by the way, reconfirm with Master Jijiu about the scientific research in three days."

Taifu, Su Zimu, and Xun Kuang bowed together and left.

Among the officials in the hall, only Su Wenqing, Li Jiulang, and Zhang Gu, the servant of the household department, were left.

Xia Fengxiang leaned against the chair, leaning his elbows on the armrest of the dragon chair, and propped his side face with half a fist: "Zhang Gu."

Zhang Gu is about the same age as Li Jiulang, and he is also Li Jiulang's classmate.

But different from Li Jiulang, Zhang Gu has always been a member of the first emperor, and after the first emperor left, he was loyal to Xia Fengxiang.

At that moment, the somewhat short servant lord stood up and bowed.

Xia Fengxiang said: "As for the salt tax, you personally receive the money from Zhao Yulang. If my guess is correct, the Taifu should hand over all of it, but Yang Guofu, Yan Jingqing, and Zhao Yulang are reluctant to part with such a large sum of money. When the time comes Keep an eye on it. And according to Yan Jingqing's habit, I'm afraid he will make a fuss about building dams in the south to make money, and he will give as much as he wants, just write it down."

Zhang Gu bowed: "The minister takes orders."

Xia Fengxiang looked at Li Jiulang and said with a smile: "Xingyue's edict of appointment will be sent to the mansion in a few days, so that she doesn't need to be too rigid about those etiquettes. The harem is handed over to him, and when Xingyue officially takes office, her elder sister Chang'an will be in charge of the harem, and Su Changan himself doesn't follow those etiquettes, so she doesn't have to pay attention to them."

Li Jiulang was ashamed, thinking that this was because His Majesty knew that his daughter had gone to Honglu Temple to learn the rules of being an official.

Especially this 'Sister Chang'an' he couldn't hear, it was said by His Majesty intentionally with a hint of jealousy, so he smiled awkwardly: "I thank Your Majesty for my daughter, but since I entered the palace as an official, I should learn You still have to learn, and the empress does not need to follow the rules, because she is already admirable, and she is always respectful of others in rudeness, and she is an example for us to learn from."

Finished
Li Jiulang raised his eyes and looked at Xia Fengxiang: "Your Majesty, I think the business with the Wa Kingdom is still to be done. I can find the Japanese envoy who stayed in Luo'an city tonight. Just spend some money to bribe him."

Xia Fengxiang smiled: "Okay."

Li Jiulang made a bow, and a grand plan had already been unfolded in his heart.

Su Wenqing stood up at this time: "Your Majesty, Su Zifeng told me today that arrangements have been made for the Taichang Temple, the Taimiao Temple, and His Majesty the Huanqiu Literary Altar to offer sacrifices to Daxia Wenyun."

Xia Fengxiang changed his sitting position and looked outside the hall.

Father, mother, I'm sorry, I still have to kill her.

For the person my daughter likes.

……

The moonlight penetrates the curtain and the wind enters the bamboo.

After Su Changan sneezed, he looked at the moon in the sky.

Seeing Su Changan like this, Xiangluo said with a smile: "Miss, Your Majesty has sent someone to tell you that he will not come. If you are sleepy, please rest early."

Su Chang'an looked at Xiangluo, thought for a while and asked, "Luoer, you said that when Sun Shanggong came, you told me that when the ceremony department of Honglu Temple has ordered the wedding process, I will also participate in the revision." Those, does your Majesty think that I am too idle, so find something for me to do."

Xiang Luo quickly shook her head: "Miss is talking nonsense again, how can you ask me such a thing, Xiang Luo dare not say it."

Su Changan frowned and asked, "Are you tired of the three of you going to Honglu Temple to learn etiquette these days?"

Xiangluo nodded: "It's a little tiring, but it's actually okay, because I know we are the lady's maids, so I am very polite to us, I don't study like before, if I don't do well, I will suffer thorns. "

After finishing speaking, Xiang Luo asked suspiciously: "Miss is worried about learning etiquette?"

Su Changan shook his head: "That's not true."

Xiangluo looked at Su Changan suspiciously.

Su Changan sighed: "I was thinking whether Your Majesty is angry with me, so I suddenly asked Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites to discuss with me about the wedding."

Xiangluo was surprised, hesitated to speak, and after thinking for a while, she became more courageous: "How could your majesty be born? Miss and your majesty are so affectionate. Every time we see it, we feel weird, but we are happy from the bottom of our hearts." Woolen cloth."

Su Changan shook his head: "It has nothing to do with this. I thought she might be angry with me. After all, I didn't take the initiative to kiss her today. Our majesty is so petty. I won't hug her or kiss her as much as I want." It's written down in the book."

Xiangluo blushed and lowered her head, not daring to speak, even though she was used to her young lady always talking nonsense like this.

But even after listening too much, I still blush.

And speaking of His Majesty, she was even more afraid to interrupt.

Su Changan looked at the blushing Xiang Luo and smiled and said, "Luo'er, do you want to read other story books?"

Xiangluo was stunned for a moment, then asked: "What storybook? If it's the kind that deceives people into tears again, miss, don't show it to me."

Su Changan shook his head: "Not this time. I probably won't look at you and giggle this time. Just like when you laughed when you saw me and His Majesty together." Xiangluo became curious.

Su Chang'an picked up a pen and wrote down on the paper [a domineering talented man falls in love with a shy empress].

Xiangluo saw the name, and then looked at Su Changan suspiciously.

……

Tianbo is easy to thank, but an inch is hard to stay.

Between heaven and earth in life, if a white horse crosses the gap, it is just suddenly.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

All the students in Luo'an City waited in line after receiving the badge today, waiting in line for the opening of the Gongyuan.

The scientific examination will be held for three days, with three sessions per day.

During the exam, candidates have to live in the exam room and wait for three days before they can come out and go home.

As for the examination questions, there are stereotyped essays, policy questions, and a subset of classics and history.

Su Changan was quite surprised when he learned that the exams in the Great Xia Dynasty were not limited to stereotyped essays, and felt that the dynasties in this world were quite good and did not stick to stereotyped essays.

But I also feel that there is still something missing without mathematics and those things, and I can't lag behind in education.

But this is not something he can think about now, so he doesn't bother to think about it.

Today is the Double Ninth Festival, and Lu Cai is sending chrysanthemums and dogwoods. According to what Lu Cai said two days ago, they are yellow and beautiful.

Su Chang'an sat in the courtyard, thinking that Xia Fengxiang should be offering sacrifices to past emperors in the Taimiao.

In fact, Su Changan originally planned to take a look, after all, he had never seen this kind of thing before, so he was a little curious.

But last night, Xia Fengxiang told Su Changan that he couldn't go anywhere today, and could only wait for her to come back in Lingqi Pavilion.

Su Changan was a bit rebellious, so he definitely didn't intend to listen carefully, but Xia Fengxiang seemed to know it, so he asked Yan Yunxiao to come here early in the morning, and told Su Changan to stay well and not run around. And Xia Fengxiang also assigned a task to Su Changan.

He said that he wanted to write a poem for her, and he had to bring Chongyang.

Poetry is definitely not a problem for Su Changan.

But Su Chang'an thought about it, and decided not to go, anyway, he would participate in such occasions in the future.

So I was bored and waited for the landing to come over after practicing today's calligraphy.

Lying on the floor of the hall, looking at the blue sky outside, and turning his head, Su Changan noticed that Linghua's face was still not good.

The reason was the day before yesterday.

Linghua went to the imperial kitchen to get ingredients, and when she came back, she trotted back with a look of fear on her face.

It is said that several corpses were seen outside the Xingqing Palace, all of which were burned.

Looking miserable, Linghua was frightened.

Originally, there was no need to pass through the Xingqing Palace to go from the Lingqi Pavilion to the Imperial Dining Room.

But since before, the Xingqing Palace has got so many flowers and perfumes because of the queen mother, saying that they want to see butterflies in winter and so on.

When Su Changan heard the words at the time, he thought it was a joke. In this weather, if you say that you are in a conservatory, butterflies are still possible, but in this cold weather to attract butterflies, why put the flower pots outside to attract butterflies.

It's not because the palace people are ignorant, but if you want to blame the empress dowager for being uneducated.

So these days, many people are curious and go to Xingqing Palace to see if there are really butterflies.

Linghua is one of them.

However, during this trip, it happened to coincide with the removal of several corpses from Xingqing Palace, and according to what Su Changan asked people to inquire about later, it was said that the firewood room of Xingqing Palace had leaked water and lit the resting room of these palace people. In the room, although the fire was extinguished in the end, the people were burned to black coals.

Su Changan regretted the lives of those people.

But helpless, after all, it was an accident.

But Su Changan is actually quite strange. After all, it just rained two days ago, and the weather was not dry. How could the fire go off for no reason, and it can burn people like that, which means it must have been burned for a long time. Went out?Moreover, living people live in small houses, so they can escape.

There are actually a lot of doubts.

But Su Chang'an was not obliged to help the Queen Mother to investigate these things, not to mention that there seemed to be no one in the Queen Mother's palace to express his opinion, so Su Chang'an didn't think about it too much.

Moreover, Su Changan was actually quite busy in the past three days.

Li Chunfang from Honglu Temple and Cao Can, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, would come here from time to time to ask for some tiny details about the wedding of Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang.

It also made Su Changan's head a little dizzy, and he really didn't have the time to think about it.

In three days, Su Changan's martial arts also improved a bit, but the main reason besides his talent was that he went to the Ancestral Temple.

Tai Nai taught him a few sword skills, saying that he can use his full strength even with a knife.

When Su Changan fought with Lian Wei, the effect was remarkable, so that Lian Wei didn't dare to suppress him anymore.

This made Su Changan wonder if he should throw away the sword and learn to sword.

But looking at Yan Yunxiao, Su Changan felt that it was better to forget it, Aunt Yan was kind to him, at worst he could learn swordsmanship.

But there is one thing.

Su Changan still tried it, but ran to Yan Yunxiao and said, "Learn swords by yourself, Aunt Yan, are you angry?"

Yan Yunxiao shook his head and said, 'I'm not angry. '

This made Su Changan a little puzzled, but Yan Yunxiao said again, "Because she can't beat the Queen Mother." '

Su Changan suddenly became more determined.

Aunt Yan is the one who really speaks with her fists. If you can beat her, you can look down on her, but if you can beat her, you can do whatever you want.

"Eunuch Lu."

"Sister Qi Xia, please stop teasing me, just call me Lu Cai, hehe. Is the lady in there?"

"Here I am."

Su Chang'an heard the conversation between Xun Xia and Lu Cai at the gate of the courtyard.

Then he sat up and saw Lu Cai walking over.

However, Lu Cai was dusty all over, and the bright green robe on his body seemed to be stained with a lot of dirt.

Unlike usual, Lu Cai stood at the door and saluted Su Changan.

Seeing it, Su Changan smiled and said, "What are you doing standing at the door if you don't come in?"

Lu Caihan said with a smile: "Your body is dirty, and it has a strange smell. I'm afraid it will get dirty, miss. I just salute to you here."

Su Changan was helpless: "Just come in, the first day you meet me?"

Lu Caiwen stretched out his hand and scratched his head, feeling embarrassed, but after thinking for a while, he still walked into the courtyard.

But just when Lu Cai walked in and walked to the front of the hall.

Maomao, who had been sitting on the side of the hall holding a medical book, suddenly raised his head and looked at Lu Cai.

After sniffing it, he put down the medical book and came to Lu Cai's side and started to smell Lu Cai's body without any scruples.

Su Chang'an didn't pay attention to Mao Mao's appearance, because he also smelled Lu Cai's body.

This smell was somewhat familiar to Su Changan, mixed with floral scents, but not perfume.

In the end, Su Changan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lu Cai and asked doubtfully, "Why does the priest smell like gunpowder, and the priest still wants to set off fireworks?"
