Chapter 521: The Ambition of a Small Person
When the group left, the eunuch who was serving as the sweeper looked at Yu Tu's departing figure with envy.
At this time, the young eunuch was hit hard on the head: "What are you daydreaming about! You dare to stare at those officials like that? Why don't you lower your head a little bit?"
"Yes, yes..." The young eunuch was not annoyed. He followed the old eunuch who was sweeping for him and said in a low voice, "I am just a little jealous. Godfather, you see that the young imperial teacher has done everything he wanted to do. A Shu countryman can actually be so valued by His Majesty. This is enough to prove that His Majesty really recruits talents regardless of their background. Godfather, you said that I should also take the exam..."
Before he could finish his words, the eunuch was hit on the head again.
The old lady supervisor wanted to curse, but when she saw the young supervisor's red eyes and unwilling look, she finally put her hand down.
"You... you... I really don't know whose stubborn son you are talking about! Forget it." The old lady's voice was a little helpless, or indifferent, "You are a rootless person, forget it."
The young eunuch clenched his fists and uttered a muffled "hmm".
The old lady saw his expression and knew that the boy had not given up. She wanted to punch him a few more times to wake him up and stop having unrealistic dreams, but before the old lady could move, she heard two palace maids holding vases whispered:
"Have you heard? There is a cripple at the Luming Banquet today. How can a disabled person be an official? Isn't this an insult to the emperor?"
"Don't ever say that again! The Ninth Princess said that physical disabilities are not a problem. Anyone with a physical disability can participate. Only people without moral integrity cannot."
"Hiss... So it was the Ninth Princess who proposed it. I see, then. The Imperial Master must be right."
The two palace maids chatted briefly and then left.
However, that sentence.
——Anyone with a physical disability can take part in the imperial examination.
These words lingered in the old eunuch's mind for a long time.
After a moment, he walked towards the young eunuch and raised his hand. When the young eunuch shrank back and dodged, the old eunuch awkwardly reached out and touched the young eunuch's head, saying in a sad tone: "The world has changed after all. You know, your godfather will always support you."
The young eunuch's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Fuck daddy, I know fuck daddy is the best..."
"Stop flattering me! First clean the tables and sweep the floor. Also, this piece of land. This kid has a relative who is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Go and help him sweep the floor... I think about it, who else..."
…
The old eunuch and the young eunuch are working hard for their new life here.
Yu Tu followed the emperor's team to the Lu Ming Banquet. He tried to keep a low profile as much as possible, thinking he was an unknown person.
But when Yu Tu sneaked to his seat, all the students around him gave him a salute. Fortunately, the emperor began to speak, and the students shifted their attention again. Yu Tu coughed lightly and sat down as if nothing had happened.
But just as he sat down, he heard the person in front of him calling the third place.
——On the way, the top scholar.
Yu Tu: …
He really felt like he was on edge.
Especially when the emperor and his courtiers left, the etiquette officer came over and announced that the top three would be given new clothes, wear red flowers, and prepare for a parade through the streets.
The other students could no longer control their emotions and focused their attention on Tu.
Regardless of whether the relationship is good or bad, they are asking:
"Brother Yu, why are you here with His Majesty?"
"Why did the minister still want to talk to you?"
"Brother Yu, my last name is Yu too! Which lineage are you from?"
…
Note: I've been lying down for another day, and I fell again. I'm not going to run anymore. I'll sort out my mood today and recover tomorrow. Biu~
