Chapter 54 Requirements



After Shen Yuexi easily guessed his thoughts, Cen Jiaan lost his previous composure.

He was still a child after all, and there was already a hint of panic in his expression.

Cen Jiaan lowered his head, took a deep breath, and managed to calm his mind before looking at Shen Yuexi again.

"I can give these things directly to Madam Liang today. I hope to have another opportunity."

Shen Yuexi raised an eyebrow: "What opportunity?"

"A few days ago at court, the Emperor officially announced that Lord Liang would be the future Crown Prince's tutor. Soon, Lord Liang will select the future Crown Prince's tutor from among the ministers' sons."

After saying this, Cen Jiaan threw aside his robe, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed deeply to Shen Yuexi: "I would like to ask Madam Liang to say a few good words for me in front of Lord Liang, so that Lord Liang can choose me as one of the prince's companions."

Liang Yuyu and Shen Yuexi opened their eyes wide at the same time and looked at the person in front of them in surprise.

His small body kneeling on the ground formed a sharp contrast with the huge front hall.

But his eyes were firm, staring straight at Shen Yuexi with eyes full of desire.

[The old emperor doesn't even have a son, so what kind of prince would he choose to accompany him to study?]

Who should I study with? Air?

Shen Yuexi couldn't help but hold her forehead when she heard Liang Yuyu's inner voice. Although she was talking to Cen Jiaan, she was actually giving scientific advice to her own daughter.

"The Emperor has been childless so far, and has now selected the Imperial Tutor and the Crown Prince to accompany him in his studies. This is because he hopes that when a Crown Prince is chosen in the future, these people can assist the new Emperor and stabilize the court."

"Therefore, the prince's tutors must all come from prominent families. When he has a candidate for the crown prince, the family background of these tutors alone will be enough to deter those who harbor rebellious intentions."

Shen Yuexi's eyebrows twitched slightly, her throat twitched, and she looked at Cen Jia'an curiously. After hesitating for a long time, she asked in a low voice: "You are the son of Minister Cen, so you naturally have the right to enter the selection of the Crown Prince's companion. With Minister Cen's prestige in the court, wouldn't it be easy for you to become the Crown Prince's companion? Why do you ask my master?"

Cen Jiaan kowtowed heavily, then slowly raised his eyes and looked at Shen Yuexi: "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Madam. I'm just an adopted son that the Shangshu created for others to see. The Shangshu has no children, so he hopes that I can fill out his family. But after all, I'm not the Shangshu's biological son."

"Madam, think carefully. If I became the prince's tutor, and he said one day that the Shangshu had a biological son, how would we compare in terms of superiority? How could the Shangshu, such a shrewd man, let his son fall into such a passive position?"

"Therefore, I can be sure that the Minister will never let me become the Crown Prince's tutor."

Liang Yuyu smacked her red lips twice, and her lower lip bulged forward slightly.

She closed her eyelids and looked to the upper left.

In a trance, Liang Yuyu seemed to see white bubble circles that only appeared in cartoons.

The circles were filled with scenes of how Cen Jiaan would compete for power with the eldest son of the Cen family in the future.

[This kid is a master who knows how to make progress.]

If his scumbag father could send him to the Crown Prince's residence to study with him, it would be considered a great favor to the Liang family.

If this kid achieves something in the future, he will never forget the kindness of his scumbag father.

Even if this kid doesn't achieve anything, if Minister Cen gets his own son someday, and the Cen Mansion really sees a situation where two tigers fight each other, it won't be a bad thing for our Liang family.

In just a moment, Liang Yuyu had gone through all the possibilities in her mind.

【Mother, just agree to his request.】

[Anyway, this is a win-win situation for our Liang family.]

Shen Yuexi glanced at the little guy in her arms, thought for a moment, and finally looked at Cen Jiaan.

She nodded slowly. "Okay, since you're so hardworking and motivated, I can promise to put in a few good words for you in front of my master. As for whether he can actually do it, it all depends on your luck."

Cen Jiaan bowed deeply to Shen Yuexi and praised her repeatedly: "Everyone knows that Lord Liang is now a favorite of the Emperor."

"Master Liang always listens to Madam's advice. As long as Madam asks, Master Liang will definitely say a few more words for my nephew."

"Master Liang's words are worth a thousand words from others."

"Nephew thanks Madam first."

[This guy is quite sweet.]

Liang Yuyu blinked her eyes and looked at Cen Jiaan twice.

[You must keep a close eye on this kid from now on. Don't let him cause any trouble, or it might implicate the Liang family.]

Shen Yuexi glanced at the bamboo slips: "In that case, what about this thing?"

Before Shen Yuexi could finish, Cen Jiaan immediately took out a flint and ignited the bamboo slips. "Madam, don't worry. Even if these contents rot in my nephew's stomach, I will never leak a single word."

Shen Yuexi narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Cen Jiaan in front of her with interest.

Although this child is young, he is really something.

Liang Yuyu opened her pink lips slightly and yawned.

A snot bubble burst from under her nose, and all over her face, along with the saliva bubbles.

Liang Yuyu waved her hand, and her pink fingertips rubbed her face back and forth.

Instead of wiping it clean, it was rubbed evenly on the face.

[Pooh! It's over, I'm dirty again.]

[When will this brat phase end?]

[If you're not careful, snot bubbles will get all over your face. ]

[Luckily, Cen Jiaan didn't see me. Otherwise, wouldn't he have laughed me to death?]

【It’s better to grow up early. 】

Shen Yuexi looked at the baby in her arms breathing in milk, and the corners of her lips curled up in a faint smile.
