Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 537

The empress still went to court normally and dealt with state affairs, but under the thick makeup, she was almost obviously old.
Su Hanxiao doesn't have any affection for the Queen, but she still remembers this "mother"'s love and help in this world for more than half a year. It's just that she grew up in the world of killers. She doesn't show much sadness, but in the afternoon when she has nothing to do, she often takes Lan Chenyan to Zichen Palace to sit, play a game of chess, or chat a few words.
During this period, she actually met Xue Shijun and the fourth princess who had never met before.
It's just a little over one year old child, with delicate features and delicate features, looks a bit like an empress, and is as quiet as her father, only staring at them curiously with wide eyes.
Su Hanxiao can immediately see what kind of child this is, gentle and quiet, maybe he will be brilliant in the future, but he doesn't have the arrogance of a king, and he won't become a qualified emperor, but... such a person, if he is used as a puppet , but very easy to control.
Of course, the present she would not give Jiange this chance, and she didn't mind that Dayong would have another talented prince in the future.The premise is that both father and daughter are quiet and obedient.
The palace examination also ended without any surprise in such an atmosphere.
Of the top three nominated by the empress, only No. [-] was the daughter of Zhao Jinhong, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. The No. [-] scholar and Tan Hua all came from ordinary families, and all the ladies selected were rarely from the same family background as No. [-], and most of them were ordinary. As soon as the results were announced, The people immediately praised it.
The common people will not see the scene of the women from the official family lighting up the lamp to read at night, but will only remember the rampant behavior of countless dudes.In fact, even if there is such a group of ignorant people, the innate conditions of the official family are many times stronger than that of the common people, and it is normal that they are easy to be on the list.
When Su Hanxiao saw the announcement, it was clear at a glance.
These people are indeed talented and learned, but those who failed the list may not be inferior to them.Of course, it's definitely not the empress's idiotic behavior to win the hearts of the people, it's just...these people are the team selected by the empress for her. After a few years of experience in the local area and returning to Beijing, they can gradually replace the veterans in the court.An official of civilian origin would not be involved in court faction disputes before becoming an official, and there were not so many twists and turns in her body, which made her use it more smoothly.
As for the second place Zhao Junhua... In addition to balancing the psychology of court officials, I'm afraid it was deliberate.
Now in the capital, Miss Shangshu, the second in high school, proposes marriage to Prime Minister Liu Si and asks to marry the young son of the Prime Minister's mansion. There are rumors of a good relationship between the two families in Qin and Jin. In the hearts of the people, isn't it another beautiful story like a story in a story?
"Dingling!" A crisp and melodious bell echoed in the wind.
"Meow!" Just as she was thinking, suddenly, the hem of the clothes seemed to be caught by something, and then a thin meow came from next to her ears.
Su Hanxiao stretched out his hand, and picked up the snow-white kitten by the fur on the back of its neck.
"Meow..." The kitten struggled uncomfortably, waving its four paws in the air.
"Ah, there! Stop there!" Sure enough, the next moment, Han Shumo rushed over panting.
"Where's peekaboo?" Su Hanxiao raised his eyebrows, and threw the kitten over.
Han Shumo hurriedly took it, but unexpectedly, the clingy cat seemed to be frightened by something, dancing and trying to run away.
"Oops!" A red mark was left on the back of the white hand if one didn't pay attention, but fortunately there was no bleeding.
Su Hanxiao's expression darkened, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
The little animals seemed to feel the danger the most, so they calmed down and shivered in Han Shumo's arms.
In just a short while, two people came hand in hand from the end of the corridor, it was Qin Yue and Bailiqing, but their expressions were not really good-looking.
"What's the matter?" Su Hanxiao asked curiously.
"Look for yourself!" Qin Yue angrily threw the things in her hand over.
Su Hanxiao took it inexplicably, and when he unfolded it, it turned out to be a map of seven obsidian stars, but the corners seemed to be bitten by a dog, and it was in a mess.
"Let you do bad things!" Han Shumo pinched the kitten's ears angrily.
"Cough cough." Su Hanxiao coughed dryly twice, and understood what the situation was, and said with a funny smile, "Forget it, forget it, what do you care about with a bastard? Anyway, this seven-star map is nothing more than an antique. There is no shortage of valuable things in the East Palace."
"Being seen that you don't take Emperor Tianfeng's relics seriously like this is a sin, no matter how big or small." Bai Liqing sighed.
"Come on, who knows that this thing is in my hands?" Su Hanxiao shook the seven-star map in his hand, picked up the damaged side, and said nonchalantly, "Ask someone to see if it can be repaired... Eh ?”
"What's wrong?" Qin Yue asked.
"This..." Su Hanxiao frowned, groping for a while with his fingers at the opening, and pondered, "Double-layer?"
"Mezzanine?" As soon as the words came out, everyone's eyes lit up.
"It's very delicately made." Su Hanxiao praised while inspecting, "If you didn't cut it open and look carefully, you wouldn't be able to tell that there are two layers on the surface."
Han Shumo's face was at a loss. He didn't know what the Qiyao star map was at all. It was only by looking at Qin Yue and Bailiqing's expressions that he vaguely understood what the kitten bitten. Hit the wrong way, a blessing in disguise?
"Let's talk in the room." Bailiqing said in a deep voice.
Su Hanxiao nodded, rolled up the picture, and led a few people to the study.
Perhaps it was because Qin Yue's murderous intent was too heavy, the kitten was extraordinarily well-behaved and remained motionless in Han Shumo's arms.
