First Lady of the Crown Prince Chapter 408

  Chapter 408 Come to the door (two more)

   Princess Xinyang fainted, without warning.

  The people in the yard did not panic because of worry. Everyone was doing their own thing in an orderly manner under Yujin's deployment.

   Princess Xinyang was carried on the bed by Yujin.

  Gu Jiao didn't see that Yujin, who was soft and weak, had such strength, but Yujin was not a martial artist, and she actually exhausted all her strength.

  She gasped awkwardly for a while, with thin beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.

  "Master Yujin, the slave and maid go to ask the doctor." said a little maid.

  Yujin nodded first, and she shook her head again as if thinking of something.

  After that, she looked at Gu Jiao, who had not escaped in the chaos, stared at her and asked, "Doctor Gu, can I trust you?"

  The twilight slanted west.

  Xiao Liulang finished his official business for a whole day, and when he came out of the Hanlin Academy, he saw Xiao Sanzi anxiously spinning around the door.

  The third son is a coachman in the hospital, and often follows Gu Jiao on visits.

  Xiao Liulang subconsciously looked behind Xiao Sanzi, only to see a quiet carriage with the curtain closed, but instinctively told him that Gu Jiao was not in the carriage.

   "Little third son, what's the matter?" Xiao Liulang walked over and asked.

  The little third son heard Xiao Liulang's voice, turned his head abruptly, and said in a panic: "Big Brother Xiao, Miss Gu is gone!"

  Xiao Liulang's eyebrows frowned: "When did you disappear? Where did you disappear?"

  The third son was too anxious: "Just, just now..."

  Xiao Liulang comforted: "Don't worry, speak slowly."

  The third son also knew that he couldn't do this. Anyway, he was the one who met the emperor with Miss Gu. He wanted to be calm and calm...

  The little third son calmed down and talked about what happened in front of the shop.

  Xiao Liulang frowned and said, "You mean she disappeared suddenly?"

The little third son said: "Isn't it all of a sudden? I held the pancake in one hand and the food container in the other, and told her that the pancake should be eaten while it is hot, otherwise it will be soft and not crispy. She also said hello, but I turned around and I went to see her, she was gone! No... I mean... the people are gone! I asked the couple in the bakery, and they didn't see it! I looked around... but I took the whole one I've searched the streets, but I can't find it..."

  Xiao Liulang went to the scene of the crime.

  "Where was your carriage parked at that time?" he asked the little third son.

  The little third son found a place about half a meter away from the shop, gestured, and said: "Here! The horse is standing here, and the carriage is here!"

  After this shop finished Gu Jiao's business, the food was exhausted and the door closed, and no more customers came.

  Xiao Liulang walked around the scene carefully, then suddenly squatted down and picked up a broken charcoal pen.

  Charcoal pen is not a very good writing tool. Most people don't use it. Gu Jiao loves to use it. The purse given to her by her aunt contains a special liner for charcoal. You can take it out for cleaning if it is dirty.

  She usually puts one or two pieces in it.

  But the charcoal pen in Xiao Liulang's hand is not the charcoal pen Gu Jiao is used to.

  Her charcoal has been treated, and the texture is softer.

  This kind of charcoal is someone's special charcoal, he has only seen it in one place.

  In the courtyard of Zhuque Street, Princess Xinyang woke up quietly.

  Yujin kept guarding her, she opened her eyes, smiled slightly, and said: "Princess, are you awake? How do you feel?"

  Princess Xinyang didn't faint for the first time, but she felt so relaxed the first time she woke up. She was neither dizzy nor sore, as if she just slept casually.

   Yujin looked at her face and knew that she was recovering better than before. She smiled and said, “The princess just fainted. Doctor Gu gave the princess acupuncture treatment.”

   As she said, she stood up, retreated and walked for a salute, "The minister has made a good opinion, please punished the princess."

   Princess Xinyang gave her a helpless look: "You know I won't punish you."

   Yujin smiled.

   Xinyang Princess asked: "Where is the girl?"

  Yujin looked back and said, "In the yard."

  In the colorful courtyard, under a big leafy tree, someone was forced to do business again, and his face was too black.

   "You said that you are a master, a dignified Dragon Shadow Guard, the world's number one martial arts master, why do you like people slap you in the face?"

   Gu Jiao said bitterly, not forgetting to cut off a charcoal pen.

   Then she felt that this big guy was happier!

  ...It's pretty fascinating.

  When Princess Xinyang walked out accompanied by Yujin, she saw a scene of a big and a small squatting on the ground.

  Yu Jinshi has been guarding the bed of Princess Xinyang, but I don't know that they are like this. Yujin couldn't hold back one more, and she chuckled.

   "Princess." She said, "Long Yi hasn't played with anyone for a long time. The last time I was like this when Xiaohou was young..."

  Princess Xinyang interrupted her slightly: "Yu Jin, he is dead, don't mention him again."

   Yujin looked down: "...Yes."

  Gu Jiao pouted to despair, until her stomach groaned before ending today's business.

  Yu Jin left Gu Jiao for dinner, but Gu Jiao refused.

  She disappeared suddenly for so long, the little third son must have been in a hurry, maybe Xiao Liulang also knew that she was gone, she had to go back quickly.

  For the sake of Millennium Ganoderma, she didn't plan to ask for the consultation fee, but Yujin insisted on giving it to her, so she accepted it.

  Quan should be a hard work for a whole night!

  Gu Jiao put the one hundred tael banknote into her purse.

   Compared to Xuan Pinghou who only gave her a copper plate, Princess Xinyang didn't make her move too lavishly.

  When Gu Jiao came, she was taken captive by Long Yi. At this moment, she can't let Long take her back.

  Yu Jin thoughtfully prepared a carriage.

"I send you."

  As soon as she finished speaking, a little maid walked over in small steps: "Master Yujin, that peony does not seem to survive."

   "Which one?" Yu Jin asked.

   "The princess's favorite plant." The little maid said.

  Gu Jiao thoughtfully said: "Master Yujin, go take care of Peony, you don't have to send it to me."

Taking care of Peony is not in a hurry for this moment and a half, but Yujin saw that Gu Jiao didn't love these polite gifts, so she smiled and said, “Okay, then you go slowly, the carriage is at the door, where do you want to go, Just tell the coachman."

   "Hmm." Gu Jiao replied, saying goodbye to Yujin and came to the front gate of the courtyard.

  The door was hidden, opening inward.

  Gu Jiao opened the door for a moment, and saw Xiao Liulang raising his hand about to knock on the door.

  The two paused together.

   Gu Jiao did not expect that he would find here, Xiao Liulang did not expect that the door would open by himself, and Gu Jiao would come out at this time.

"Are you OK?"

"How did you come?"

  The two said in unison.

  Xiao Liulang was still panting, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he could see how hard and anxious the journey was.

  He glanced at the yard behind Gu Jiao.

  Gu Jiao's eyes moved lightly, crossed the threshold, and covered the courtyard door: "Let's go."

  Yujin heard the voice of the strange man, she was not relieved, she walked over and took a look, but Gu Jiao had already left with Xiao Liulang.

   Yujin asked the driver: "Where is Mrs. Gu?"

  The coachman said: "Someone came to her just now, and she went with him."

  A person came to her?

  She was taken captive by Long Yi. Who can guess that Long Yi took her captive here?

   Yujin was puzzled, followed a few steps suspiciously, and came to the corner of Zhuque Street, only to see a carriage driving into the night.

  On the quiet street, the third son drove the car in relief.

  I finally found Miss Gu, and he doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

  Big Brother Xiao is still great, and I guessed that Miss Gu is coming to Zhuque Street.

  By the way, how did he guess it?

  The same doubt flashed through Gu Jiao's mind. The difference was that Gu Jiao quickly thought about the answer.

  No wonder he can stop Long from killing her, no wonder Long Yi pinches his face.

  Long Yi is indeed confirming something, and the confirmation has been completed.

  In this way, it makes sense for the dragon to be so close to himself suddenly.

Although Gu Jiao is unwilling to equate being forced to draw a pen with closeness, if someone else strikes Long Yi's face with a pen, I'm afraid it's not a few charcoal pens that will be drawn next, but the person himself. .

   Although she guessed something, and she felt that it was impossible to tell that she had guessed it with his cleverness, but he didn't say it, she didn't go to pierce the last layer of window paper.

   However, she still has to say about the reason why she appeared on Suzaku Street.

"I removed stitches from a scholar named Xu yesterday. He asked me to treat one of his aunts. He also paid for the consultation. As a result, I went to the wrong place and went into the yard of Princess Xinyang by mistake. , Regard Princess Xinyang as that aunt..."

Gu Jiao succinctly described the process of dressing change, but did not say that Long Yi asked her to slap her pen, nor did she say that Princess Xinyang misunderstood that she had the intention of almost using the Emperor's golden whip to slap her ass. .

   is a bit embarrassing.

   "Princess Xinyang took the medicine I gave, and the effect is very good, just let Long Yi take me over to treat her illness!"

  She speaks calmly, all kinds of misunderstandings and details are omitted.

  But Xiao Liulang has been with Princess Xinyang for more than ten years, how can she not know what kind of temperament she is?

  Perhaps he couldn't understand it once, but now thinking about it again, many details are not quite the same as in the impression.

  Xinyang Princess has never been a simple woman.

  She really wanted to invite someone to treat the illness, and she would send a sedan chair in a graceful manner to let the dragon take away. Most of it was suspicious of her.

  Fortunately, everything is indeed a misunderstanding.

  He can't stop her from seeing Princess Xinyang, because he can't stop it.

  It's not that she can disappear if she wants to. Princess Xinyang gave an order and dug three feet in the end of the world, and Long Yi would find people out.

  But Long Yi won't allow anyone to hurt her, right?

  Just like he never allowed anyone to hurt himself.

  When I got home, the pancakes were already cold. Gu Jiao sighed. They were delicious pancakes. What a pity.

  It was late at night, the family was asleep, and the two of them each washed and went back to the room.

  Small headroom lay on the bunk on all sides, snore indulgingly.

  Xiao Liulang looked at him, somehow thinking of himself as a child, and also of the former princess mansion.

  Memory flashes through my mind frame by frame like a picture. The memory that I thought I had forgotten can be so clear at night.

  Xiao Liulang closed his eyes and tried to squeeze these memories out of his mind, but found that the harder he tried, the more the memories surged.

   "Mother~"

The small clear space beside    suddenly spoke in a daze.

  Does the little guy dream of having a mother?

Xiao Liulang's thoughts were interrupted, and Xiao Jingkong's clothes were pulled down to cover his belly.

   Xiao Jingkong turned over and arched into his arms, babbling, babbling, babbling, babbling.

  Xiao Liulang raised his slender fingertips and poked his little head aside.

   Xiao Jingkong rolled past, and soon rolled back.

  Xiao Liulang poke again.

  He rolls again.

  In the end, he no longer arched into Xiao Liulang's arms, a little foot was born, and it was directly on Xiao Liulang's face!

  Xiao Liulang: "..."

  Being so tossed by Xiao Jingkong, Xiao Liulang had no time to think about anything else. The strange memories in his mind also disappeared. In the middle of the night, he slept well.

  The next day it was dark, so he went to the Hanlin Academy.

  He came earlier than Kong Mu, Kong Mu gave him a weird look: "Xiao Xiuzhuan last night...couldn't it be that he didn't go back?"

   "I'm back." Xiao Liulang said.

  After finishing the order, Xiao Liulang went to his office.

   Kongmu couldn't help but muttered: "So early... I quarreled with my daughter-in-law, and she was driven out by her daughter-in-law..."

  The results of the six assessments came out, and a large number of officials entered the ranks of the need to revise the examination. The Hanlin Academy took on the important task of giving lectures to the officials of the make-up examination.

  A large part of the officials who took the re-examination were not from imperial examinations, but family officials, that is, the official positions obtained through the merits of the previous generation. The examination skills of this group of people can be imagined.

It's not to say that none of the officials of Yin Ren has a lot of poems and books, but if a person has strong real skills, he can be an official himself without the need for family officials, such as the juvenile sacrificial wine. , Another example is the editing of Zhuang at present.

  After all, there are only a few who know that they can serve as officials and still study hard and diligently.

The drawbacks of the Yin official system are obvious, but it has a long history. During his reign, the first emperor tried to abolish it, but was opposed by a joint name of the civil and military officials. However, the first emperor was also stubborn. While his old ministry was loyal to him, he also hoped that he could take his life back.

After the Empress Dowager Zhuang put the curtain down to listen to politics, she restored the Yin official system and gave the civil and military officials a step down, but at the same time, she also raised a condition-six additional assessments.

  Evaluation is conducted every three years. If you fail the exam, you will make up the exam. If you fail the exam twice, you will be demoted, and you will be demoted twice.

  It is worth mentioning that the person who has been credited must participate in the next round of assessment regardless of whether he is drawn by the lottery or not.

  The mystery of this system is that it contains a lot of buffer periods, but you can make up the exam, and you can still take the exam three years later. It doesn't mean you lose your official position all at once.

  Plus Queen Mother Zhuang said: "The tiger father has no dogs, and all the princes are wise and brave. They are really the pillars of my Zhaoguo country. Could it be that the children born are all pussies?"

  High hats and aggressive generals will choke the court ministers.

  The six-part assessment system was thus accepted.

   Although this system has not completely solved the Yin official system, it has minimized its disadvantages.

  The Hanlin official who arranged to give lectures at the Gongyuan today was Xiao Liulang, and the Gongyuan arranged a carriage to pick him up.

  Before the carriage arrived, Xiao Liulang carried the kettle to the backyard to fetch water.

  Ning Zhiyuan happened to go to Mochi to wash his pens. When he saw him, he smiled and greeted him: "Liu Lang! So early!"

   "You are very early too." Xiao Liulang said.

  Ning Zhiyuan sighed: "I was afraid of being late, so I left early? Your home is not far away."

  The two were talking, and Han Xueshi came over.

  Ning Zhiyuan was surprised: "Wow, I didn't expect Master Han to be so early."

  The two saluted Han Xueshi.

  Han Xueshi nodded, looked at Xiao Liulang and said, "Are you going to give lectures at the Gongyuan Academy today?"

   "Yes." Xiao Liulang said.

   "No need to go." Han Xueshi said, "You will come to Wenhua Pavilion with me later."

  Xiao Liulang's fingertip moved.

  Wenhua Pavilion, the library of books built by Princess Xinyang.

  Han Xueshi valued Xiao Liulang for giving Xiao Liulang this opportunity. He saw that Xiao Liulang had not spoken, so he agreed.

  I didn't know that he had just taken a step, Xiao Liulang said: "Master Han, I want to go to the Gongyuan to give lectures."

  What does it mean that you want to give lectures in Gongyuan?

  Is there such a bargaining with your immediate boss?

  Han Xueshi looked back and said seriously, "Do you know what Wenhua Pavilion is? What opportunity is this?"

   "I want to go to the Gongyuan Academy to give lectures." Xiao Liulang said all at once.

  Han Xueshi frowned.

  Xiao Liulang glanced at Ning Zhiyuan and said, "Let Ning editors go to Wenhua Pavilion. I still want to go to Gongyuan."

  He said three times to go to the Gongyuan Academy, and Han Xueshi wanted to praise him and would never give him another chance.

   "You come with me." Han Xueshi said to Ning Zhiyuan.

  Ning Zhiyuan followed Bachelor Han, and exaggeratedly gestured to Xiao Liulang as he walked, and said silently-did you really give me such a good opportunity?

   "What are you doing?" Han Xueshi stopped and turned to look at him.

  Ning Zhiyuan stopped in one second: "It's nothing, stretch."

  Han Xueshi took Ning Zhiyuan out of the Imperial Academy.

Xiao Liulang waited another half an hour to wait for the people who came to Gongyuan, but just as he was about to get on the carriage, the coachman of the Imperial College hurriedly got into the fire and drove the carriage and rushed over: "It's not good, Xiao Xiu! Something happened to Ning's editor! Go to Wenhua Pavilion and have a look!"

The purpose of   　 is not to emphasize the number of words, but to tell you whether you need to wait for the next change.

  　　 If the target is one shift, everyone can do it again during the day. If two shifts are marked, it means the shift is over today.
