Chapter 134: Having an Affair with My Wife at a Literary Meeting
Xia Fengxiang's disguise was not very secretive, and it could only deceive those who had only seen her once or twice.
For example, when she attended the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet in the Zhonghe Hall of Nanuo, she was seen from afar.
But he couldn't fool Mu Xu, Su Zimu, Xun Kuang, Cui Yu and other important officials in the court.
There are only a few officials invited to today's literary gathering.
at this time
These people were originally going to stand up and salute Sun Shang Gong and Yan Yunxiao.
But just as he was about to bow, he saw Xia Fengxiang.
They all froze in place, stunned.
Mu Xu reacted the fastest. When he saw Xia Fengxiang dressed like this, he immediately understood what His Majesty was going to do. He stopped looking and bowed to Sun Shanggong with a smile: "I wish you good health, Shanggong."
Then, he looked at Yan Yunxiao and said, "It seems that the commander-in-chief is getting more powerful day by day."
Yan Yunxiao glanced at Mu Xu: "Scold me?"
Mu Xu immediately shook his head: "No, no, I'm just praising you.
Yan Yunxiao was too lazy to pay attention to Mu Xu and turned his head to glance in the direction where the old teachers were sitting.
When Master Yao, Master Zhu and others saw Yan Yunxiao like this, they were all in awe and hurriedly bowed to him.
Only Mr. Shuiyun smiled at Yan Yunxiao.
Yan Yunxiao glanced at the teachers in the capital, as well as those from other places. At a glance, he knew most of them and had fought with them before.
Only Shuiyun has never been beaten.
However, Yan Yunxiao frowned when he didn't see Yuan Ruxi.
Glancing at Yan Yunxiao's frown, the teachers who had been beaten more than once took a deep breath and lowered their heads, not daring to look at Yan Yunxiao.
In the past, even the late emperor couldn’t stop this crazy woman. Now that the late emperor is gone and Your Majesty is young, it’s even more impossible to stop her.
It really doesn't make sense for a scholar to meet a soldier, so it's right to avoid him.
At this time, Xun Kuang, Su Zimu, Cui Yu and others also understood what was going on and did not dare to look at Xia Fengxiang any longer.
Instead, they all bowed towards Sun Shang Gong and Yan Yunxiao.
However, there was a famous Hanlin scholar who almost bowed to Xia Fengxiang when he saw him.
Thanks to Cui Yu who stopped him in time and whispered a few words to him, the old scholar who had studied for many years finally reacted.
Sun Shang Gong and each official returned the greetings.
Yan Yunxiao nodded casually and walked to Su Changan.
Sun Shang Gong looked at Mu Xu and said, "Master Ji Jiu, His Majesty has an order."
Hearing this
Mu Xu and others immediately came behind Sun Shang Gong, bowed respectfully and waited for the imperial decree.
The others present also hurried out from behind the table, bowed respectfully and waited.
But everyone knows that the test questions are coming.
Su Changan was about to go over, but was stopped by Yan Yunxiao, who said that he didn't need to do so.
Su Changan nodded, but looked at Xia Fengxiang who was pretending to be a eunuch.
Especially when he saw Xia Fengxiang staring at him.
Su Changan was in mixed mood.
This made Su Changan wonder what was going on.
He thought about how he hugged Xia Fengxiang before leaving, but he didn't take advantage of the opportunity.
I also thought that I had not said anything bad about Xia Fengxiang along the way.
I also thought that after I came here, I didn't do anything extra.
After thinking about it, Su Changan just couldn't figure out what was wrong with him.
He thought about asking Yan Yunxiao, but after all, everyone was silent at the moment, so Su Changan thought about asking later.
Sun Shang Gong held the imperial edict in both hands, looked at Mu Xu and said, "Master Jijiu, His Majesty can just give the order orally, you can just read the imperial edict yourself."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xu bowed deeply and said, "Your Majesty, I obey your order."
As he said this, he respectfully took the imperial edict from Sun Shanggong with both hands.
And Sun Shang Gong smiled and looked at everyone in the lecture hall and said, "Your Majesty, do you know that in the Imperial College today, the chief priest invited students to participate in the literary meeting, and he felt that you are all the future pillars of our Great Xia. He also knew that there are so many talented men and women taking the exams this winter, and he felt that our Great Xia's literary fortune is flourishing."
"Also, the wedding date between your majesty and Miss Chang'an has been set. Although it will be after the winter exam, your majesty often hears Miss Chang'an talk about studying. So your majesty is mindful of how hard it is for all the students to study, and also thinks that Miss Chang'an will become the mother of the country and something that the whole world will celebrate. So, you have issued an edict to grant special favors to this winter exam, increasing the number of Jinshi candidates by 100, with 50 candidates on the A list and 50 candidates on the B list."
After Sun Shang Gong finished speaking, she looked at everyone with a smile.
Everyone was stunned.
One hundred more!
One hundred!
Only 180 people were admitted through the two imperial examinations each year.
Ninety at a time, with forty-five on the A and B lists respectively.
But this time the number of Dong Cohen names actually increased by one hundred!
This is completely equivalent to holding an Encore!
After being stunned, the students immediately showed expressions of ecstasy on their faces.
Although the difficulty of the exam is still very high, after all, the number of examinees has not changed, but the increase of these 100 places is a slight possibility. How can they not be happy!
Decades of hard study can only bring a little more possibility, which is also a glimmer of opportunity!
The students were excited.
The teachers were also happy for their students.
but
Officials such as Su Zimu and Cui Yu looked at Sun Shanggong in astonishment, and at the same time glanced at Xia Fengxiang who was standing beside them.
One hundred names of grace.
This is a big deal.
Su Zimu lowered his head. Although he was surprised, he didn't think too much about it. His Majesty had his own arrangements.
What surprised Su Zimu was that His Majesty asked Sun Shanggong to talk about the marriage with the eldest girl first, and then talked about Enming.
What this means is that the reason for the special amnesty is because I am going to marry Su Changan, so if you want to express your gratitude, go and thank Su Changan.
Su Zimu felt happy when he thought that His Majesty would do this for the eldest girl.
He secretly bowed slightly towards Xia Fengxiang as a way of expressing his gratitude.
Mu Xu glanced at Sun Shang Gong and naturally understood what she meant, so he immediately said in a loud voice: "Mu Xu thanks the emperor for his great grace on behalf of all the candidates in the world, thanks Miss Chang'an, and congratulates His Majesty and Miss Chang'an."
After saying this, Mu Xu bowed to Su Changan.
This is what Mu Xu said.
Xun Kuang and others naturally followed suit.
And those students, full of ecstasy, bowed one after another: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace, thank you, Miss Chang'an, congratulations to Your Majesty and Miss Chang'an."
This was true for everyone in the classroom.
But Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang in confusion. Why didn't he, the person involved, know that the wedding date had been set?
But when he looked at Xia Fengxiang, Xia Fengxiang turned his head away and didn't look at him.
Su Changan sighed.
And Sun Shang Gong smiled and said: "In that case, I will take my leave, and you can continue."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xu and others immediately saw him off.
Yan Yunxiao also stood up and left with Shang Gong Sun, but when he walked to Mr. Shuiyun and the others, he asked, "Where is Yuan Ruxi?"
Mr. Shuiyun was startled, then smiled and said, "Mr. Yuan has gone to Huaining County and should be back in a few days."
Yan Yunxiao said directly: "Tell him to come find me when he comes back."
Mr. Shuiyun bowed and agreed.
But both she and the others sighed. Since they had named him, there was no way Yuan Ruxi could escape.
After that, Yan Yunxiao left directly.
Su Changan wanted to ask what had happened and why his wife was so angry, but he didn't have the chance.
but
Xia Fengxiang came straight to him, so there was no need to ask.
only
Xia Fengxiang's expression was still angry when he looked at him, which made Su Changan curl his lips and become even more puzzled. He really didn't understand how he had offended Xia Fengxiang.
Mu Xu and others accompanied Sun Shang Gong and others to the gate of the Imperial College and only returned after they left.
In the lecture hall, all the students were already very excited. It was a very rare thing to grant a title of favor. It would only be granted when there was a great event happening in the country.
But because of the affair between His Majesty and Miss Chang'an, His Majesty actually showed him favor.
One by one, they looked at Su Changan with gratitude in their eyes.
I feel the divine grace even more greatly!
As for the young eunuch from the palace, he stayed with Miss Chang'an.
No one cares about this.
After all, Miss Chang'an is the future empress. Now that the wedding date has been set, it doesn't matter if she has people from the palace serving her. So no one cares about these things.
Everyone was looking at Su Changan sitting there, looking very calm and elegant. Although he looked a little more serious than before, he was still very graceful. However.
His expression seemed to be in pain, and looked a little awkward.
But no one dared to ask too much, they just wondered if it was a relapse of the illness and he was feeling a little uncomfortable.
Therefore, everyone is a little worried.
But soon they saw Su Changan's expression return to normal, and their worries were relieved, but they were all regretful.
How could a person who is so suitable to be the mother of Daxia be plagued by illness?
but.
In fact, only people around Su Changan could see clearly why Su Changan showed a look of pain on his face just now.
Su Zimu, Xun Kuang and others are not here at the moment because they are seeing off Concubine Sun.
Cui Yuer returned to her seat just now.
So at this moment, the only two people around Su Changan were Su Linhan and Su Wan'er who were standing behind him.
Su Wan'er saw it clearly just now.
As soon as the good-looking eunuch sat down next to his elder sister, he started to strangle her.
She didn't know what this meant, but how could her elder sister, a eunuch, do such a thing? So she planned to scold the eunuch immediately.
But
Although Su Linhan had only met Xia Fengxiang once, she had seen Xia Fengxiang many times during the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, so she recognized him at once. Although she was startled, she pretended not to see him.
At this moment, he naturally saw the scene where Xia Fengxiang directly pinched his elder sister.
Although he was also puzzled, before Su Wan'er could speak, he immediately pulled Su Wan'er to his side and told her his identity as the "little eunuch" in her ear.
Su Wan'er looked at the 'eunuch' in front of her with horror, and suddenly understood why a little eunuch dared to pinch her elder sister.
But at the same time, just like her second sister, she stood behind him, not daring to move.
But seeing how badly their older sister was being pinched, the sisters felt that she must be in great pain.
Su Changan was indeed in pain, and this time the pain was much more severe than in the past.
So after Xia Fengxiang let go, Su Changan immediately went to rub it.
Xia Fengxiang looked at Su Changan but didn't say anything. After all, although the lecture hall was large, no matter how quiet the voice was, it would still be heard by others.
So Xia Fengxiang just took the paper and pen from Xun Kuang's desk and wrote, "Did Cui Yuer's hand feel good?"
See this sentence.
Su Changan was stunned for a moment.
Then he looked at Xia Fengxiang with wide eyes.
Xia Fengxiang glared back at Su Changan.
Su Changan immediately retracted his eyes, picked up the pen and wrote, "When did you touch it? Don't accuse anyone wrongly. This is such a big school, and the saints are watching us."
Xia Fengxiang didn't write anything, but just glanced at the black jade on the table.
Su Changan looked over and looked at the black jade, and suddenly remembered that Cui Yuer was about to put the black jade down, but he tried to stop her and his hand touched it.
Thinking of this, Su Changan looked at Xia Fengxiang with surprise.
Xia Fengxiang glanced at Su Changan, picked up the pen on the table and started writing.
"What are you looking at? You don't recognize me anymore! I told you not to flirt with other people before I came here, and I also told you that you are married, but when I got here I saw you touching a girl's hand!"
Looking at the words written by Xia Fengxiang, Su Changan fell silent.
I picked it up and was about to write, but after thinking for a while I put it down again.
But he picked up the pen again and wrote.
"Wife, did you even find a reason to pinch me and scold me? Actually, you don't have to, you can just pinch me directly."
When Xia Fengxiang saw what Su Changan wrote, he was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing. However, he also knew that he was in the lecture hall and couldn't be so casual. So he tried hard not to laugh, and was about to reach out and pinch him again, but when he thought about how painful it was, he let it go.
There were so many people in the lecture halls, so naturally there were quite a few people peeking at Su Changan.
Of course.
Some of the expressions of Su Changan and the young eunuch beside him, as well as the way they wrote with their eyes closed, were also seen.
However, when everyone saw this scene, they were curious about what this was about, but they didn't think it would be another masterpiece.
But curiosity aside, I looked at the little eunuch and he smiled at the end.
Everyone just thought that the rumors about Su Chang'an being friendly to others made dishes for the servants in the Su Mansion despite his illness.
Now that they saw Su Changan treating a eunuch so kindly, they all felt that the rumors were true.
Moreover, those outsiders looked at Su Changan and felt that the rumors about Miss Changan were all true.
Because today I got to meet him and saw how he behaved, and it was exactly the same as what I heard about him.
At this time, Mu Xu and others came back.
After entering the lecture hall, everyone saw the empress beside Su Changan. They all lowered their heads and dared not speak, and quietly returned to their seats.
Su Zimu just sat back down as if nothing had happened.
but
Xun Kuang looked at Xia Fengxiang sitting next to Su Changan, especially leaning against his seat. He felt a little scared and didn't want to go back to his seat!
But after looking around, he found that there were no empty seats. Xun Kuang sighed and thought about going to Yan Shu and the others.
Mu Xu looked at Xun Kuang's expression and knew that this kid saw His Majesty sitting over there and didn't dare to go over. He immediately scolded him, "Go back and sit down!"
Xun Kuang was stunned, but was kicked by Mu Xu. He had no choice but to return to his seat and sit down tremblingly.
But as soon as he sat down, Xun Kuang saw the empress looking at him.
Xun Kuang wanted to salute, but he didn't dare to, for fear that others would know the empress's identity. He could only smile and sit at the edge of the table, trying to stay as far away from the empress as possible.
This scene.
Looking at Su Linhan and Su Wan'er behind them, they covered their mouths and laughed.
I think Xun Kuang is quite pitiful, but
I just think it's funny.
Mu Xu stood in the middle of the lecture hall, holding the imperial edict in his hand, looking at the students and said, "Your Majesty has some questions for the students."
Upon hearing this, everyone stood in awe.
Mu Xu said: "Your Majesty asked the students present, 'What is the purpose of studying?'"
Upon hearing this, everyone present subconsciously looked at Su Changan.
Because Su Chang'an's conversation with Mr. Wen Zhegu had been published in a journal before, it was widely circulated among the students and was even taught in class by the teachers of the Imperial College.
Mu Xu looked at everyone and said with a smile: "If anyone stands up to answer today, I will record it and submit it to Your Majesty, so everyone should think about it carefully."
Upon hearing this, everyone became solemn.
This is a great thing.
If the answer is good and sent to His Majesty, and if he is appreciated, it will be great.
Immediately
Everyone stopped looking at Su Changan and started thinking about how to answer.
If you give the same answer as Su Changan, that will definitely not work. You must have your own understanding.
The lecture hall suddenly became solemn.
Mu Xu looked at the students and returned to his seat with a smile.
When passing by, I plucked up the courage to glance at the papers on Su Changan's desk. Seeing one sentence after another, I just felt that this young couple was really having fun!
However, when he saw his student Xun Kuang trembling with fear, he burst out laughing on the spot. What a useless guy!
but
All the students in the lecture hall stood in awe.
But it had no effect on Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang at all.
The two people still looked serious to outsiders.
but
The paper in front of him was filled with words.
'Are you happy that I'm here?'
'I'm so happy.'
"I see you're quite unhappy, is it because I disturbed you from touching Miss Cui's hand?"
"Wife, listen to me. Don't do this again. If you want to hit me, just hit me. Finding excuses is tiring."
"Get lost! You still want to defend yourself? I saw you touching her hand!"
"I am holding your hand now."
"There are so many people watching, let go quickly, it would be so embarrassing if someone saw you."
"Don't worry, no one can see it from this angle, only Xun Kuang can see it."
'Wait a minute!'
then
Xun Kuang, who had secretly seen Su Changan holding the empress's hand, was glared at by the empress.
Xun Kuang was so frightened that he dared not move again, not even his eyes.
Mu Xu was enjoying himself as he watched his student's embarrassing look while holding a wine cup.
Seeing that the empress turned her head, Su Changan continued to write the "little note".
"Wife, are we having an affair in front of so many people?"
"That's so ugly! And I came here to hear how these people would answer, who is having an affair with you! Besides, this is the Imperial College, don't be so glib."
"Don't worry, Master Yao and his friends are very nice to me and gave me a lot of delicious food. It's just a pity that I was very lonely before you came, and I was forced to eat so much. When asked about poetry, I didn't want to say anything. If I said it, they would praise me crazily, which made me feel embarrassed."
"Su Changan! It's started again, right? "
'young married woman.'
'Um?'
'I feel like talking too much, give me a kiss.'
"Get lost! What a situation! You are such a jerk!"
'Then kiss my hand, and don't move, or someone will find out.'
After reading this line of words, Xia Fengxiang was a little surprised.
Then he saw Su Changan lowering his head as if pretending to get something, and even took Xia Fengxiang's hand.
He kissed Xia Fengxiang on the back of his hand.
Xia Fengxiang was surprised and immediately looked to the side, and found that not only was Xun Kuang still stealing glances at him, but he was also seen clearly by Su Linhan and Su Wan'er who were sitting behind him.
Xia Fengxiang immediately lowered his head and pinched Su Changan's leg hard.
Then
"ah!"
Su Changan cried out in pain.
