Let's draw a blind box today, Wuhu, whoever comes out first to report, we'll dig up their gossip!

"Done!"

"Yeah!"

Two hands clapped in the air.

Princess Xiangyang was delighted: "I can play the huqin, I'll play a song now!"

Xu Yanmiao: "Okay!"

So Princess Xiangyang held her beloved huqin and played it ding-dong-dong.

Xu Yanmiao can't play the huqin, but he can set the mood. He dragged over a wooden barrel with a lid and knocked on the lid with his hands.

"Dong-dong-dong--"

"Rumble---"

The notes were crazy and broke through the roof, interspersed with laughter.

Princess Xiangyang smiled, played, and shouted: "Xu Yaohai--"

She shouted: "Thank you--"

Xu Yanmiao was pounding the wooden barrel. There was a heavy sound in her ears, and she could only vaguely hear Gao Xiang say: "What? What did you say?"

Princess Xiangyang shouted loudly: "I--said--thank--you--"

Thank you for not saying that I don't want to get married because I am childish.

Thank you for playing with me.

Xu Yanmiao also shouted: "No--thank--"

They were in the suburbs, and the boundless sound of the piano and drums knocked on the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees, the flowers, the tender grass, and the distant green mountains. Thin streams of water flowed down from the mountains one by one, as if happiness also had traces.

The old emperor learned the situation from the Jinyiwei, and couldn't help but snort and laugh: "Two little bastards, they are so romantic and self-admiring."

After the impact of Princess Xiangyang's "Love Quotes" gradually faded, the old emperor reacted immediately -

Gao Shengxian, this little debt collector, is not what she said, yearning for pure love.

She is deliberately hating her father!

And he didn't need to guess that this method must come from Xu Yanmo, just his move was particularly unconventional.

If it was another official who plotted against him like this, he would definitely make them pay a painful price, but these two...

"Forget it."

The old emperor picked up the chopsticks and clamped the peanuts one by one into his mouth steadily. The peanuts were big and crunchy when bitten.

Then he pulled out the cork of the old liquor next to him and drank a mouthful. After drinking, he sighed: "I won't die so soon anyway, and my teeth can still eat peanuts for a while, so you can have fun if you want."

- And he was really shocked.

His daughter looked normal now, what if she really fell in love in the future!

Wait a little longer, there is no rush in the next two years.

However, the little bastard teased the king and his father, so they still had to scare them.

Then he pointed to a plate of peanuts and smiled at Jinyiwei: "They are jumping and shouting, they must be tired and hungry, take this plate of peanuts to them."

Jinyiwei: "..."

If he was not the emperor, he would have asked: Are you asking me to leave the palace, go out of the outer city, and walk another 20 or 30 miles to find the princess and Xu Lang, just to give them a plate of peanuts?

At least add two pieces of meat to make it look more expensive!

After a happy party, Xu Yanmiao wiped the sweat from his face with the back of his hand. The sun shone on the back of his head, and the slightly rising heat made Xu Yanmiao want to go home and take a shower.

Before going home, a light bulb lit up on his forehead again: "Gao Xiang, I have thought of another trick that will let you add more gambles!"

Princess Xiangyang was immediately excited: "What is it!"

Xu Yanmiao pushed the wooden barrel, and her tone was as if she was eager for chaos: "Put on a white skirt, walk around the palace at night, feel nostalgic under the moon, and feel sad about the flowers."

"!!!"

Princess Xiangyang looked at Xu Yanmiao with even more enthusiasm: "This is good! I will turn over my white skirt when I go back!"

Xu Yanmiao: "Also, if you get caught, you just say this - come on, recite with me, 'Daddy, I want to have someone who can watch the snow, the stars, and the moon with me, and talk about everything from poetry to the philosophy of life."

Princess Xiangyang immediately covered her teeth.

No matter how many times she heard such words, she felt a pang of pain in her teeth.

However, her father would soon hear them!

Whenever she thought of this, Princess Xiangyang would try her best to act nonchalant and repeat calmly: "Daddy, I wish there was someone who could watch the snow, the stars and the moon with me, and talk about everything from poetry to songs and people..."

The appearance of the Jinyiwei made Princess Xiangyang pause.

Xu Yanmiao: "What do you want?"

The commander of the Jinyiwei presented the food box steadily: "Your Highness, Minister Xu, His Majesty is afraid that you two will be tired and hungry from all the knocking and beating, so he ordered this humble official to bring a plate of peanuts."

Princess Xiangyang: "..."

Xu Yanmiao: "..."

[Wait, wait a minute, is it exposed so soon! The Jinyiwei

commander delivered the things and left with a bow. Only Xu Yanmiao and the other two looked at each other. Xu Yanmiao

: "How about..."

Princess Xiangyang: "Actually..."

The two looked at each other again. They both saw the sweat stains on each other's collars.

Princess Xiangyang swallowed her saliva: "Actually, it's not that necessary to go around the palace in white clothes at midnight."

Xu Yanmiao smiled shyly, her eyes seemed simple and innocent: "I don't understand what you are talking about. What do you mean by going around the palace in white clothes at midnight?"

Princess Xiangyang paused, her face smiling as brightly as the peach blossoms in March: "Yes, yes, I was talking in my sleep."

"Let's go! Aren't we going out to eat noodles? If we don't go, the restaurant will be full!"

"Ah? Oh! Yes! Let's go!"

Soon, it was time for the new tribute scholars to be appointed.

In the imperial examination, the first-class candidates usually enter the Hanlin Academy, the second-class candidates are appointed as officials in Beijing and other places, and the third-class candidates are appointed as officials in other places.

Of course, there are special cases, such as this time.

The old emperor saw that too many people had been killed recently, so he made an exception and allowed the first place in the second class to enter the Hanlin Academy, but other than that, the rest of the second class were appointed as officials in Beijing or outside the capital.

Gao He rubbed his red nose and wiped his tears.

——Who understands the joy of getting ashore at once!

"It's a pity that I couldn't enter the Hanlin Academy..."

He said to Xu Yanmiao with regret: "Although the rank of the head of the Ministry of Works is higher than that of the Hanlin Academy editors and editors appointed by the first class, but those who are born in the Hanlin Academy can be promoted faster."

Xu Yanmiao laughed at him: "If you had practiced your calligraphy earlier, wouldn't you be able to become a Shujishi after the imperial examination?"

After the palace examination, except for the first class, everyone else needs to take a imperial examination. Among them, those who are good at literature and calligraphy can be selected to go to the Hanlin Academy as Shujishi.

Gao He's face flushed a little: "This calligraphy... is not something you can practice easily. I... I... um... although I have practiced for a while, but..."

"But you used the time assigned by the school to practice calligraphy to copy scriptures?"

Gao He raised his voice and was extremely shocked: "How did you know!"

The school he attended before would require students to copy scriptures for an hour every day, regardless of whether their calligraphy was good or bad - the good ones would use expensive materials such as paper and silk, and the bad ones would use bamboo and wooden slips.

These scriptures would be sold by the school staff in contact with temples, and the money earned would be used to subsidize the students' lives.

In order to make money, Gao He spent all his spare time copying scriptures, but he only cared about quantity and not quality, pretending that he copied them in that hour.

After all, he never thought that he could go so far.

Xu Yanmiao was about to speak when the queue bell rang. He had to separate from Gao He in a hurry and go to his own seat.

[After all, I have done similar things, secretly reading novels during hard pen calligraphy class...]

He read all kinds of books, and he read Qiong Yao's novel at that time.

Gao He was also hurriedly getting into his seat, and he was very moved when he heard Xu Yanmiao's voice suddenly in his ears. Xu Lang is such a
