Wei Ziang was a helpful person who liked to discuss articles with his classmates. He gladly accepted the classmate's request for advice and reached out to take her poem.
However, before he could receive it, Xu Jue opened his hand.
Wei Ziang was stunned for a moment and looked at Xu Jue in confusion.
"You're accepting love poems too?" Xu Jue asked in a low voice.
Love...poetry?
Xu Jue meant that the poem his classmate gave him was a love poem?
Wei Ziang retracted his hand immediately, his handsome face flushed red.
"Sorry..." Wei Ziang said hesitantly.
Xu Jue walked out, and Wei Ziang ran up to him as if he was escaping.
The female student showed a little disappointment on her face and put the letter away.
"I'm just an auditor, who dares to reject the princess's letter?"
"Princess, ignore him. He has no vision. Judging from their accents, they are definitely not from the capital. I wonder where in the mountains they came from."
"Poor students are pretending to be noble. Tsk tsk, why don't they look in the mirror and see what kind of person they are?"
A group of male students said sourly.
They were all chosen ones by heaven, born into noble families, and were doing very well in the Imperial College. Ever since Wei Ziang and Xu Jue came, the female students in the Imperial College were attracted to them and completely ignored them.
They were jealous and looked down on Wei Ziang and Xu Jue, two poor boys. They were holding their breath and decided that when the imperial examination came, they would get a good rank and let these female classmates know who was the real talent!
The female student lost her shyness in front of Wei Ziang. She glared at them, put her hands on her hips, and said savagely, "You guys are so good at gossiping. Are you even a man?!"
Those male students didn't get what they wanted and ran away in embarrassment.
Xu Jue walked very fast. Wei Ziang trotted after him and grabbed his arm to make him stop.
"Why are you walking so fast?"
Xu Jue didn't say anything.
"Are you unhappy?" Wei Ziang looked at his face.
"No." Xu Jue said.
"You're just unhappy." Wei Ziang said, thinking about the reason why Xu Jue was unhappy. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, his eyes lit up. "Could it be that you like that classmate just now?"
Xu Jue liked that classmate, and that classmate wrote a letter to him, so Xu Jue was angry!
Fortunately he didn't take the letter!
The more Wei Ziang thought about it, the more he felt that he had guessed it.
Xu Jue looked at Wei Ziang and rolled his eyes when he saw his confident look as if he saw through everything.
"Silly boy, I'm just afraid that your love affair will affect your studies. Didn't we agree to pass the imperial examinations together and enter the cabinet together?" Xu Jue said.
Entering the cabinet is the ultimate goal of civil officials, and it is also the goal of Xu Jue and Wei Ziang.
"Of course not, I only focus on reading books of sages!" Wei Ziang said.
Like Xu Jue, he was aiming for the top spot.
Then he entered the cabinet, assisted the country, created a prosperous era, and left his name in history!
Xu Jue's expression brightened slightly: "That's good."
The two walked side by side towards the gate of the Imperial College.
"Xu Jue, what do you think we should do when we grow up and fall in love with a girl?" Wei Ziang asked.
He had no experience with love and was simply curious. He and Xu Jue had grown up together and shared similar interests, so he always felt that he would fall in love with the same girl.
Xu Jue looked at him without saying anything.
Wei Ziang immediately smiled: "Don't worry, I will definitely give it to you."
He and Xu Jue will be good brothers for life. Whether they get married or have children, they are the closest.
As the two stepped out of the gate of the Imperial College, they saw a familiar figure outside.
"Mom, Sanbao!" Wei Ziang shouted.
Xu Jue also greeted him.
Yan Xiaoduan walked over and took the things from the two people. At this time, he looked a little like a reading companion.
The group walked towards the Marquis' Mansion.
"Zi'ang, Xu Jue, how was your time in the Imperial College? Have you learned anything?" Tang Li asked.
"The teachers at the Imperial College are all knowledgeable and talented, each with their own strengths. Xu Jue and I have learned a lot of new knowledge." Wei Ziang said.
"There is no single principle, and learning has no end." Xu Jue said.
“I also met many talented classmates.”
Only when they really arrived in Beijing did they understand what it meant to "there are always people better than you" and it made them realize that they still had to work harder.
Tangli encouraged them, and they chatted and laughed all the way until they arrived at the door of their home.
It was getting dark.
At the door, a tall figure stood there, waiting for them.
It was Wei Qing.
When Sanbao saw his father, he ran over and was caught by Wei Qing, who then held him in his arms.
Wei Qing held Sanbao in one hand and Tangli in the other, followed by three young men, and they entered the Marquis' Mansion together.
In the Marquis' Mansion, dinner was ready and the family ate together.
After dinner, Tang Li and Wei Qing returned to their bedroom together.
Tangli took off his outer robe for him.
Tang Li looked at the man's sharp profile and felt a sense of fatigue.
"Husband, please sit down." Tang Li said with concern.
Wei Qing sat down on the chair.
"Husband, let me rub your head." Tang Li said, wanting to relieve his fatigue.
Wei Qing turned around and put his arms around Tang Li's slender waist, with his face against her waist.
"Wife, let me hug you."
Breathing in the scent of my wife, I felt less tired.
Tang Li stood there, gently stroking his face.
"But did you encounter any unpleasant things in the Ministry of Justice?" Tang Li asked.
"That great-grandfather Wen is so annoying." Wei Qing said.
Great-grandfather Wen was Wei Qing’s superior, Lord Zeng, the Minister of Justice.
Tang Li knew that Lord Zeng was indifferent to everything and was just sitting there doing nothing. Therefore, among the three judicial departments, the Ministry of Justice had the weakest say.
The reason why the Dali Temple suppressed the Ministry of Justice so hard was, firstly, because the Dali Temple Minister Gu Huainian was too strong, and secondly, because the Minister of Justice was too weak.
However, because the wife of the Minister of Justice is the eldest princess's goddaughter, he has always held this position.
"What stupid thing did he do again?" Tang Li asked.
"A month ago, I had several cases that were almost solved, but he conducted a random investigation, closed the case, and took all the credit for himself," said Wei Qing.
It would be fine if all his previous work was in vain, but closing the case in such a muddled way has caused so many more confusing accounts. It's simply nonsense.
Unfortunately, he was the superior, and the higher his rank, the more powerful he was. Wei Qing had no way to do anything about it.
When Wei Qing followed his uncle before, the first lesson he learned was patience.
When you encounter this kind of thing, you have to endure it first.
"Husband, let's give that Zeng guy a scolding." Tang Li said.
Wei Qing raised his head and looked at Tang Li, and saw his wife winking at him playfully.
"Just like when we were in Lijia Village, if you didn't like someone, you would confront him." Tang Li said.
"Okay!" Wei Qing nodded and became excited.
Wei Qing cursed directly, "Zang Zuwen is a coward, he's just occupying the toilet without doing anything. He's nothing but a good-for-nothing. I'll kick him out sooner or later."
"Yes, keep on scolding."
"Damn it! I've never seen anyone so shameless. His face is thicker than a city wall. He takes all the credit for himself!"
"continue."
"No matter how thick-skinned he is, I'm going to kick him in the face and punch him twice until he's turned into a pig's head..."
