It is not easy to be a son-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 1627 Argument in the courtroom
As soon as he returned to the Prime Minister's mansion, Prime Minister Zhang had someone call him over.

Prime Minister Zhang thought that Gu Shuisheng was also beaten, but he didn't expect him to come back so soon.

For things that seem to have Gu Youyou's scruples, at least they didn't mess around in the imperial examination.

"How is it? Have you seen your father?"

Gu Shuisheng pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

Prime Minister Zhang was very concerned, and asked: "Is your father doing well in Prince Ning's Mansion?"

Gu Shuisheng didn't answer Prime Minister Zhang directly, but only said: "Whether life is good or not, that's where he wants to go!"

Prime Minister Zhang didn't like other people talking to him in this way, but he didn't say much at this juncture, he just said: "It's nothing serious, you should also prepare for it, you're going to go to the palace for a test in two days."

"Okay, thank you, Prime Minister Zhang!" Gu Shuisheng is now a protégé under the name of Prime Minister Zhang, and he only talks to him, always with a trace of alienation.

Prime Minister Zhang knew that this was because Gu Shuisheng had undergone huge changes in his life, and it was indeed difficult for such a person to trust another person.

But it doesn't matter, he likes such people.

Prime Minister Zhang laughed and said, "Then you should go back to rest earlier, don't be nervous during the palace exam, just let nature take its course."

For Prime Minister Zhang, Gu Shuisheng was already surprised that he got into the top three.

He originally thought that this time would not work, so he would wait for another three years, but he did not expect to get into the top three for the first time, which is very good.

……

The rumors became more and more intense, no matter what Mrs. Lin said was true or what Gu Wu said was true, but because Gu Youyou was the daughter-in-law of the royal family, everyone hoped that she would stand up and explain this matter on her own initiative.

However, Gu Youyou, who is the righteous master, has never shown her face.

Today is the day of the palace examination. After seeing the performance of the top three, the emperor already has a suitable candidate in his mind.

It's just a little strange this time, he didn't announce the ranking of the three on the spot, but asked them to go back first and wait.

Everyone felt that it was difficult for the emperor to make a choice for a while, and they wanted to go back and think about it, so they didn't think much about it.

It's just that after the three candidates left the Hall of Supreme Harmony with anxiety, some ministers were a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty, there are more and more rumors and rumors that are unfavorable to Concubine Ning. I think I should ask Concubine Ning to come forward and explain something?"

"Explain what?" the emperor asked lightly.

In fact, everyone knows that it is inappropriate for the emperor to handle the matter of Princess Ning at this time, because the queen mother is ill, the emperor is a filial son, and Princess Ning is treating the queen mother.

Even if Concubine Ning made a huge mistake, it is impossible for the emperor to punish Concubine Ning at this time.

But some guys who are self-taught in Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism can't bear the position of Princess Ning, and they dream of pulling her down.

Prime Minister Zhang smiled lightly and remained silent, he knew that Gu Youyou would provoke public anger by not allowing King Ning to take a concubine.

You are blocking their future, it's no wonder they can make it easier for you.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Ning is the royal daughter-in-law. Her identity and her every move represent the face of the royal family. If she is really a villain, wouldn't that embarrass the royal family?"

The emperor said slowly: "Oh, I didn't worry about it, what kind of worry are you worrying about?"

"Chen, I'm also impatient, afraid that the royal family will be humiliated..."

"Oh!" Zhang Chengxiang, who most hoped that Gu Youyou would be unlucky, stepped forward to smooth things over, saying: "Prince Ning has a lot of things to do every day, and she is busy treating the Empress Dowager. She is almost as busy as the emperor, so how can she have time to care about those gossips? If the Empress Dowager has something good or bad, who can take the responsibility?"
