At the moment when Shen Shixu was crowned as the top scholar, the golden finger that was late for eighteen years finally arrived. In his previous life, he passed away to save a child who fell into ...
Chapter 5 This green hat is big and round
Xiao Jinyi didn't want to go to the Qionglin Banquet. As a martial artist, he had nothing to talk about with those students, and he would just sit there doing nothing, so he simply decided not to go.
But his elder brother, the Crown Prince Xiao Yuanqi, insisted on inviting him to go with him, saying that the top scholar was very interesting and he wanted him to meet him.
Xiao Jinyi, who originally didn't want to go, heard the word "number one scholar" and remembered that he had found him very interesting before, so he reluctantly followed Xiao Yuanqi to the Qionglin Banquet.
The arrival of Xiao Yuanqi and Xiao Jinyi brought the Qionglin Banquet to a climax, and everyone saluted to them.
Xiao Yuanqi smiled gently at everyone, raised his hand slightly, and motioned them to stand up, "Everyone, stand up and sit down. You can continue, and don't worry about me and Prince Jing."
After hearing what Xiao Yuanqi said, everyone relaxed a little, but they did not dare to relax completely. The prince said this out of politeness, they should not take it seriously.
Xiao Jinyi sat down below Xiao Yuanqi, poured himself a glass of wine, and then held the glass and strode to Shen Shixu.
Shen Shixu had just finished dealing with a group of students and several ministers, and was thinking of eating some cakes to fill his stomach, when he suddenly felt dark in front of him and a tall shadow covered him.
He put down the cake in his hand and looked over, he felt as if he had fallen into a cold pond, his still drunken head suddenly became sober.
"Your Highness Prince Jing!"
Shen Shixu stood up and saluted Xiao Jinyi. Xiao Jinyi was stunned for a moment when he looked at him. He didn't expect that this year's new top scholar would be so good-looking.
Shen Shixu was wearing a crescent-white brocade robe. Because he had not yet reached the age of adulthood, his jet-black hair was tied up with a hairband of the same color and half of his hair was loose. A green bamboo jade pendant hung around his waist.
Her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her eyes are like autumn water, her facial features are soft in outline, the corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, and her whole body is as soft and clear as water.
Xiao Jinyi's appearance was completely different from his. He had an upright posture, strong facial features, deep brows and eyes, and a cold look in his eyes, like a walking snowy mountain.
"I have a difficult case on my hands. I heard that you saw through the disguise of the human traffickers at a glance today. Perhaps you can bring new discoveries to this case after joining us."
Shen Shixu didn't expect that the news of him catching human traffickers during the parade in the afternoon would reach Prince Jing's ears, and he was a little surprised for a moment.
After a few seconds of hesitation, he realized what Xiao Jinyi asked him to do. "If you need me, I will do my best."
Xiao Jinyi was very satisfied with his answer. "Then come to Prince Jing's mansion early tomorrow morning. I will greet the Ministry of Personnel, and you can temporarily take over the position of Junior Official of the Dali Temple!"
Shen Shixu felt like a pie had suddenly fallen from the sky. Besides being surprised, he was also scared. He jumped several levels without doing anything and became the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, which made him very panic.
Just when he was worried, 011 suddenly appeared and said, "Brother, I found another melon. Do you want to eat it?" 】
Shen Shixu now urgently needs a melon to comfort his frightened little heart. [Eat! Whose melon is this? 】
Xiao Jinyi suddenly heard a voice he had never heard before, followed by a voice that sounded slightly familiar. He had just spoken to this familiar voice.
So he subconsciously looked at Shen Shixu who was sitting below him, and immediately found something wrong. His lips clearly didn't move, so why could he still hear his voice in his ears?
[I'm in urgent need of a melon to calm myself down. No matter whose it is, I'm going to eat it! 】
Xiao Jinyi suddenly understood what Xiao Yuanqi meant. He looked at Xiao Yuanqi and asked him to give him an explanation.
Xiao Yuanqi leaned towards Xiao Jinyi and whispered, "This is the interesting thing I told you. The voice you have never heard of is from a person named Melon Eating System 011. He suddenly appeared today and then bound to the top scholar Shen Shixu.
We have confirmed that what he said is true. Today at the morning court, it was revealed that Minister Liu of the Ministry of Revenue wanted to frame Minister Li.
There is also Minister Li's son-in-law, the former top scholar Sun Minghao, who abandoned his wife and children. He was also bribed by Minister Liu to put dirty things and forged account books in Minister Li's house.
I'm eating melons again this time, and I don't know whose melons it is, but it's fun to watch anyway. ”
Xiao Yuanqi still had the leisure to guess with Xiao Jinyi who was being targeted, but they never expected that the person being targeted was him!
[This melon is about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a fiancée who he has been engaged to but has not yet married. The reason why the two have not married is that his fiancée already has someone else outside. 】
011As soon as the words fell, Shen Shixu heard the sound of many cups breaking and looked up.
Those ministers had been warned by the emperor before that they must not let Shen Shixu know that they could hear his thoughts and the voice of the system.
At this time, seeing Shen Shixu looking over, he was afraid of being discovered and quickly made an excuse, “Ouch, I drank a little too much and didn’t hold the cup firmly.”
"Me too. It looks like our alcohol tolerance is not good enough. We need to practice more in the future."
Shen Shixu saw that the adults began to sigh about the passing of time. As they got older, their alcohol tolerance also declined. He slowly withdrew his gaze and continued to ask 011.
[Xiaoyi, please continue. I am really curious about what kind of woman is so bold as to cuckold His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! 】
Xiao Yuanqi was still hoping for a lucky break, wondering if he had misunderstood, but when he heard Shen Shixu's words, he felt his head buzzing.
Xiao Jinyi looked at Xiao Yuanqi with sympathy in his eyes. 011 on the other side continued: [The one who is engaged to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is Yang Wenhui, the daughter of Marquis Yongping. Yang Wenhui does not like the Crown Prince, she likes his cousin from her mother's side. Moreover, the two of them had been secretly having an affair for a long time, and Yang Wenhui was even pregnant with his cousin's child, which was born three days ago.
The entire Yongping Marquisate knew about this matter, but in order to allow the entire Marquisate to get close to the Crown Prince, they silenced all the people who knew about it.
In order to prevent anything wrong from happening to the royal family, the old man in the Marquis's Mansion drank poison and committed suicide. He wanted to buy three years of mourning to erase all traces.
This is also the reason why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Yang Wenhui should have been married half a year ago, but have not yet done so. 】
Upon hearing this, Shen Shixu couldn't help but look at the prince sitting in the first seat, and saw that Xiao Yuanqi's face was pale and his eyes were wandering, as if he was deeply shocked.
[Why does your highness look a little strange? Does he know that he is being cuckolded? But how did he know that he was attending the banquet here? 】
Just when Shen Shixu began to doubt, Xiao Jinyi helped Xiao Yuanqi up and said to the ministers, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is drunk, I will take him back first, you continue!"
Xiao Jinyi's move dispelled Shen Shixu's unrealistic speculation.
