Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 1828 Gu Shangqing is an official

After eating in Yafu, Liu Ya went back in a carriage.Halfway through the walk, I thought of something, so I turned a corner and went to Gu's house.

It was already dark at this time, the lanterns of the ancient mansion were on, and there was still a servant on duty at the door.

As soon as Liu Ya's carriage arrived at the door, the young man hurried over and asked, "Second Miss, you are back."

Liu Ya didn't get out of the car, but asked directly: "Is my brother in the house?"

The young man replied: "Go back to Second Miss, the Eldest Young Master went to the household department, but he hasn't come back yet."

"Hubu?" Liu Ya didn't understand what Gu Shangqing was doing in Hubu, so she said, "Then tell me, tell my brother to go to the Prince's Mansion when he is free, I have something to do with him. "

The boy agreed and said he knew.He also asked Liu Ya if she needed to make an appointment, or if the young master could go at any time.

Liu Ya said: "Say I'm at home tomorrow, he can come anytime."

The servant agreed, and then asked Liu Ya if she would like to come to the mansion.

Liu Ya said: "It's late today, so I won't go in. Tell grandpa for me." After speaking, Liu Ya sent the carriage back home.

It's not that Liu Ya is putting on airs, but that it is inconvenient to go back to the ancient house after dark.After all, the Gu family is a family of prime ministers, and there are many rules and regulations. When Liu Ya comes back at this time, grandpa will probably reprimand her a few words.

Unexpectedly, after walking not far, I saw Gu Shangqing walking back with two personal soldiers.He didn't ride a horse or a sedan chair, he just walked back with small square steps like a stroll.

Liu Ya stopped the carriage, raised the curtain and shouted, "Brother, are you back? I went home to look for you just now."

When Gu Shangqing heard Liu Ya's voice turn around, he hurried over and said, "Is there anything you can do with me?"

Liu Ya said: "Of course. I have the medicine to stabilize your internal strength, but it's best to take it now."

Gu Shangqing said: "I've been busy recently, I'm afraid I don't have much time. I'll go find you in a few days."

Liu Ya said: "The sooner the better. I just left a message for the boy at the door, saying that I want you to come over tomorrow. Since you can't come, then forget it. When you come over, remember to ask someone to tell me in advance. I have prepared the medicine, and you can eat it when you come."

"Okay." Gu Shangqing nodded, rubbed his stomach again, and said, "Ya'er, if there is nothing else, then I'll go home. I've been busy all day, and I'm really hungry."

Liu Ya asked, "Brother, what are you doing in the household department?"

Gu Shangqing glared at Liu Ya, and said, "It's really the water that was thrown by a married girl. Your eldest brother and I participated in this year's spring test, I'm afraid you don't even know it."

"..." Liu Ya paused, her face flushed with embarrassment.

It's not that Liu Ya didn't know, but that she was busy with her wedding during the spring test.People from the Gu family didn't mention to her that Gu Shangqing was going to take the exam.

Seeing Liu Ya's appearance, Gu Shangqing sighed and said, "Then I guess, you don't know that your elder brother won the second place."

"Ah? I really don't know about this. Isn't it the number one scholar?" Liu Ya hurriedly said: "Brother, I really don't know about this, so don't blame me. I'll go back and prepare a big gift for you."

Liu Ya reckoned that she happened to go back to her hometown on the day when the results were released after the spring test.Otherwise, the top three in the Spring Examination, the No. [-], No. [-], and Tan Hua would have to ride horses through the streets.If she was in the capital, she wouldn't be unaware of such a big matter.

Gu Shangqing breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Okay, your gift is too late. Your brother and I have been working as a doctor in the household department, you must not know."

Liu Ya smiled awkwardly, shook her head, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

Gu Shangqing patted his belly again, and said: "Forget it, I'm going home for dinner, your eldest brother. Then don't forget, the person who promised me to go to Heming Mountain years ago has already passed half a year. When did you Go for a trip?"

Hearing Gu Shangqing's complaints, Liu Ya suddenly remembered that she really promised Gu Shangqing to go to Chu Kefan to say something nice, but in the end, there was no more words.

Liu Ya quickly jumped off the carriage, bowed her hands to Gu Shangqing, and said, "Brother, my good brother. It's all my fault. I forget everything when I get busy. I'll go to Heming Mountain tomorrow and take Chu Kefan over." Stay with me, okay?"

"Really?" Gu Shangqing widened his eyes immediately, and said with a smile: "Sister, brother knows that he didn't love you for nothing. Okay, if you can invite Kefan to come down the mountain to the capital, then I don't want any courtesy Yes. Brother strives to take part in the spring test next year, and come back with the champion."

Liu Ya burst out laughing, and said, "I've never heard of it. You can take the exam for years. It's not bad to be ranked second. Does it have to be number one to be prestige? In other words, who is it? My elder brother is still good enough to win the number one prize directly?"

Gu Shangqing curled his lips and said: "Who else is there, from the Feng family? It's Feng Shusheng's second brother."

Speaking of this, Gu Shangqing lowered his voice and said to Liu Ya: "However, I let him. This is also your husband's intention. It can be regarded as a meeting gift after Feng Shusheng returned to the crown prince."

It was only then that Liu Ya realized that the top three in the spring test was basically a gift in the eyes of the royal family.Who is the champion is determined by default, and it is really difficult for outsiders to squeeze in.

As early as when Xiao Shu'er was going to take part in the spring test, Liu Ya knew that the Gu family would push her people up.Now that Xiao Shu'er has left the Gu family, of course Gu Shangqing is going to take over.

Liu Ya smiled, and said: "However, the Ministry of Household Affairs is a good place. It is in charge of the treasury's money and the country's account books. You are no worse off than the No. [-] scholar."

Only a young master of a family like Gu Shangqing, a real relative of the emperor, could directly send a fat vacancy with real power as soon as he entered the top three.

Although there are servants and monks on the top of the Hubu Lang, but generally those who enter and leave the officialdom are small officials, and it is not bad to be able to reach the fifth rank at most.

For someone like Gu Shangqing who stayed directly in the capital to work, he had to have a strong backing.

Gu Shangqing also put on a bit of pride, and said: "Yes. I am a doctor of the household department, and the second child of the Feng family is a doctor of the Ministry of Industry. See if he is free now. When the rainy season comes in a few days, he will be busy Yes. It’s possible to carry a hoe to dig river channels.”

Speaking of this, Gu Shangqing laughed a few more times, and said: "Even if he goes to dig the river, he has to come back to me to withdraw the money."

After hearing this, Liu Ya smiled and said, "Okay, you can push him everywhere and take it easy."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ya got into the car and said: "It's getting late, I should go back too. Brother, remember to come to my side as soon as you have time."

Gu Shangqing said: "As long as you invite Kefan down the mountain and bring him to your residence, I will visit your residence every day."
