The emperor turned his head to look at Li An who was beside him in a daze, "You An, is what Jing Yun said true?"

   Li An was stunned, and said without tears: "Grandfather, the father did say this, but the grandson thinks this is their joke..."

"We royal people are full of promises, why are we joking?" The emperor reprimanded with a stern face: "Don't think that Jingyun is too young to be your teacher, his uncle is also younger than your father, so he should be too. Young master of the prince? In terms of seniority, it is not an exaggeration for you to worship him as your teacher."

   Li An lowered his head with a pale face, and responded with a low "yes".

  Everyone: ...I'll go, the emperor, you can't dote on Gu Jingyun so much. He became a Taisun teacher after he passed the jinshi exam, so do you really want to make him a fourth-rank official?

The emperor was really sealed, he looked at Gu Jingyun and said: "Since I promised you, I will naturally do it, I have made you a fourth-grade attendant, and you can enter the palace to give lectures to the princes, as for the Taisun's worship of you as a teacher. , wait for an auspicious day to hold it."

   Everyone looked up at the emperor and Gu Jingyun dully.

Peng Dan was the first to react, and exhorted him: "Your Majesty, think twice, Zhuangyuan Gu is still young, and he has not been awarded a fourth-rank official position, that is, Zhuangyuan Gu is smarter than others and lacks experience, so he is an official. It's not just by answering the questions and doing the papers, but also accumulating experience..."

  The emperor waved his hand impatiently and said, "Jingyun is just a teacher, what experience do you need? Their Qin family is born to read and teach, so why should they accumulate?"

  Gu Jingyun said with a slightly upturned mouth, "Your Majesty said yes."

  He straightened his chest proudly, and said happily and confidently: "For my Qin family, teaching is like reading, something that comes naturally."

   Everyone was stunned, teaching?

   Four-rank attendant lectures only for teaching?

  Wait, no, Gu Jingyun's ideal is to fill the world with peaches and plums, that is to be a teacher?

   He didn't want to be named a prince and a minister. He was serving as a four-rank attendant to be the teacher of the grandson, and the teacher of the princes.

   That means he won't climb up.

   No, it was His Majesty who stopped him from climbing up. Just as His Majesty said it, Gu Jingyun became a teacher, which shows that he can only be a teacher in his life!

Everyone's eyes rolled around, winking at each other and asking questions, so the emperor appointed him as the champion and named him as a fourth-rank attendant, not because he favored him and admired his promotion, but to suppress him and prevent him from being promoted. Let him not be able to hold real power and let him be a 1st or 4th rank official all his life?

  The emperor has a very small mind, and he really wanted to take out Gu Jingyun's anger, so they said, Qin Xinfang was rebellious and exiled, how could Gu Jingyun come back from Qiongzhou without being implicated at all?

   is so cruel!

  Gu Jingyun is talented, intelligent, and he is also the champion. If the emperor has no prejudice against him, he may be a Qin Xinfang after working hard for a decade or two.

  Gu Jingyun is only fifteen years old this year, and even twenty years later, he will only be thirty-five years old.

  The thirty-five-year-old pavilion, everyone just thinks about it and envy and hate.

  Some people may not even be admitted to the Jinshi exam at the age of thirty-five.

   But now his hopes have been cut off. Although he was named a fourth-rank attendant at the age of fifteen, he will stop at this for the rest of his life, thinking that everyone feels sorry for him.

  But Gu Jingyun didn't feel any pain at all, but instead thanked him with joy. His eyes were as bright as stars, making those who were watching him look away slightly reluctantly. Does this child know what he lost?

  Peng Dan didn't stop it now, stepped back and entered the queue, silent.

  The emperor nodded slightly in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Today's palace exam is here, Jing Yun, Huang Aiqing, Xu Aiqing, you are all ready to go out of the palace and cross the street."

   The three of them came out and responded respectfully: "Yes!"

  The servants rushed forward to lead the three out of the palace, and the emperor also got up and left the stage. The officials and candidates knelt down and sent the emperor to the emperor before they reacted slowly.

  The candidates looked at each other and sighed with regret. Although Gu Jingyun became a fourth-rank official, he fought for fifteen years less than them, but they were not envious at all.

   The unstoppable sympathy in my heart is what is going on?

  Xu Jiuyan looked at Gu Jingyun in a complicated way, now he already understood the kindness he asked them to say first.

  If he didn't let them speak first, I'm afraid no one would remember them as soon as he spoke.

   He had the heart to ask him why he answered like that, but it was hard to talk deeply, so he could only swallow the words.

   On the other hand, Huang Gonghua was much more direct. He nodded to Gu Jingyun with a smile, then stepped back and said, "Gu Zhuangyuan please invite me first."

  The guards of the palace brought three horses, but Gu Jingyun didn't refuse, he gave him a slight smile and jumped up on the horse's legs with a handsome posture.

Xu Jiuyan was born in a famous family, and naturally he would also ride horses, so he mounted the horse in a dashing manner. Although Huang Gonghua came from a family of farming and education, he had never learned to ride a horse. to Qianmen Street.

The people in the capital were waiting on Qianmen Street to see the No. 2 champion and Tanhualang parade, but they couldn't come. They were worried that something was wrong, but they saw the yamen beating gongs and drums on Qing Street. Everyone was overjoyed. The champions are here.

   Li Baolu also immediately lay on the window and looked out, excitedly waving at Hearts, "Bring all the flowers here, Brother Jingyun will be here soon."

  Hearts hurriedly brought the flowers they bought to Li Baolu.

  Zhao Ning twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Brother and sister, we should keep a low profile..."

   Zhao Ning's name for this time was Luosunshan, so he didn't have the chance to take the palace test. After sending Gu Jingyun to the palace for the palace test this morning, they came to this teahouse to wait.

  The two of them had no doubts about Gu Jingyun's ranking among the top three, but Zhao Ning felt that they should keep a low profile. It was much safer to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger than to go straight to the street as a tiger.

   "Got it, got it," Li Baolu nodded without much sincerity, "I must keep a low profile."

   Zhao Ning knew at a glance that she didn't listen, and when she was about to persuade again, Shun Xin was already lying at the window and shouted, "Master, Madam Gu, I saw Young Master Gu!"

Everyone rushed to the window immediately, and Li Baolu saw at a glance the boy who was the first to ride the horse in front, with a big red flower on his chest and a solemn face, as if he was not parading the streets for people to watch, but patrolling the country. the king.

The lively street was quiet, and then more enthusiasm erupted in an instant. Roars and cheers rushed towards the three of them like a huge wave. Gu Jingyun, who was walking at the front, bore the brunt. discoloration.

   And Gu Jingyun still sat on the horse with a cold face, walking forward at the same speed.

Behind him, Huang Gonghua and Xu Jiuyan didn't change their expressions, but they couldn't help but stare at the young man in front of him, and couldn't help but feel sorry in their hearts. This young man is indeed very good, but unfortunately his future has been set. With the emperor's future for him, he will only be The fourth-rank servant said that he can only be a teacher. Even if the next emperor admires him, it is difficult for him to have real power and promotion if he has the will of the previous emperor.

  The two of them felt sorry in their hearts, but Gu Jingyun, who was walking in front of them, smiled when he saw Li Baolu who was waving excitedly at him from the window out of the corner of his eyes, and the corners of his eyes and brows were full of satisfaction.

  The little daughters-in-law and the big girls who were already fascinated by him screamed, covered their cheeks shyly and looked at him, and boldly threw their handkerchiefs and purses at him, their eyes all glued to him.

  Xu Jiuyan and Huang Gonghua breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this, didn't they say that women's **** is heavy, why are they so daring now and not at all restrained?

   Handkerchiefs and purses were thrown from all directions, but their owners were obviously not accurate enough. In addition, Gu Jingyun suddenly clamped the horse and made it go two steps faster, avoiding these things directly.

   Huang Gonghua and Xu Jiuyan, who were following behind him, did not have such good luck, purse handkerchiefs smashed on their heads and shoulders sporadically...

  The two of them were stunned for a moment, looking at the suddenly opened two-step distance, they couldn't help twitching the corners of their mouths, these things were obviously given to Gu Jingyun, what's the matter if they were thrown on them?

   The corner of Gu Jingyun's mouth was slightly raised, and he looked up at Li Baolu smugly.

Li Baolu also showed him a big smile. Seeing that the purse handkerchiefs that were thrown on both sides were not thrown on him, she couldn't help being proud, took the basket full of flowers by her side, and shouted at him, "Gu Zhuangyuan, I love you. !"

   After he finished speaking, he sprinkled the flower in his hand, and all kinds of flowers were rushing down towards Gu Jingyun.

  Gu Jingyun was stunned for a moment, he didn't dodge like before, and let the flowers fall on him. The love words Li Baolu had just said were still ringing in his ears, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

  Li Baolu happily sprinkled all the flowers on him and laughed happily.

  Gu Jingyun's expression was invisible to Huang Gonghua and Xu Jiuyan behind him, but the audience on both sides could see it clearly. The person on the opposite side followed his gaze and saw Li Baolu smiling like a budding flower in the window at a glance.

   The grandmother up to the age of 80, and the little girl down to the age of 8, became jealous all at once. Who is that girl, and how can she get Gu Zhuangyuan's eyes and smile?

  Gu Jingyun returned to the palace to attend the banquet after the parade. The emperor and all the princes showed their faces, except the prince.

  The prince fell ill recently, and the emperor was in poor health. In order not to get sick, the father and son did not meet.

   Taisun has full authority to replace him.

  Gu Jingyun's initial wish was fulfilled, he happily drank a few glasses of wine, and was helped out of the palace by the inner servant with a thin red complexion.

   In the palace, no one dared to neglect Gu Jingyun. Director Su came to give him the last ride. Of course, the main purpose was to pass on the emperor's oral instructions.

   "Gu Zhuangyuan, Your Majesty means that the eighth day of April is a good day, and His Majesty will preside over the apprenticeship ceremony for Taisun."

  Gu Jingyun's eyes were sparkling, and he nodded slightly: "I thank you, Your Majesty, Long En, and Director Lao Su has come to inform us."

   Director Su smiled and said, "This is the responsibility of the miscellaneous family."

   After speaking, the two of them went outside the palace. There were many carriages parked outside the gate. When Li Baolu saw Gu Jingyun, she immediately jumped out of the carriage to meet her, "You've been drinking, how are you feeling?"

   "In the clouds and fog, groggy, and in a very happy mood."

  Li Baolu smiled and said, "Then we will continue drinking when we go back."

   Director Su looked up at Li Baolu curiously.
