Chapter 325 I'm waiting for you in the capital

He was the emperor and was well versed in employing people.

People like Shen Ping are like a sharp blade, and they need to be controlled well by the sword holder.

The rest is simple.

The Emperor of Great Chu asked Wei Cheng to come forward and comfort all the people, while he himself took Shen Ping and returned to the government office again.

This time, for safety reasons, the Emperor of Great Chu specially brought Lu Xingwan with him.

After all, he had had this idea a long time ago and wanted to take Lu Xing to the early morning court.

But thinking of those old-fashioned people, and in order to avoid causing more trouble to Lu Xingwan and Song Qingyan, mother and daughter, he finally gave up.

But it’s different outside now, we should make good use of it.

Seeing the Great Chu Emperor holding a child, Shen Ping was actually a little puzzled, but after all, the other party was the emperor, and he was just a commoner, so how could he dare to speak?

After the two men sat down, the Great Chu Emperor asked, "Mr. Shen, although you are wearing plain clothes, you look very elegant. I wonder who your father is?"

Shen Ping shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know who my father is. I live with my mother in Taijin County. My mother's surname is Shen, so I took her surname."

The Emperor of Chu had not expected this.

He originally thought that Shen Ping's father was the son of a poor family, but he didn't expect that his father was not around.

"Then your mother..."

The Great Chu Emperor felt uncomfortable with this question and changed the question: "Mr. Shen seems to be well-spoken. Has he ever been to school? Which school did you go to?"

In fact, when the Emperor of Great Chu asked this question, Shen Ping was already very surprised.

After all, the Great Chu Emperor in the outside world's rumors was a suspicious and stern man, but now he was talking to him so patiently.

"Your Majesty," Shen Ping questioned his mother's identity, but his mother never mentioned her background. "She didn't go to any school. She taught me how to read."

【Ah, I see.】

The Emperor of Great Chu asked again and again, and finally waited for Lu Xingwan to speak.

[According to the description in the storybook, Shen Ping is probably someone whose mother had a child out of wedlock with someone else, and then the two of them had a falling out.]

[His mother secretly brought him to live in this small county town. A country woman certainly couldn't raise such a person. Her mother must have been of high status.]

[Shen? Could he be related to the Empress's family? Or maybe the Minister of Personnel's Shen family?]

Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan shook his head.

The Great Chu Emperor sighed inwardly, as it turned out that the storybook did not record Shen Ping's life experience, it only said that he would become a high-ranking official in the future.

Thinking of this, the Emperor of Great Chu no longer bothered about Shen Ping's identity.

He just stood up holding Lu Xingwan in his arms: "Have you passed the college entrance examination? Are you going to take part in the autumn examination this year?"

Shen Ping also stood up and bowed to the Great Chu Emperor: "Your Majesty, I am preparing for this year's provincial examination."

"Hahaha..." Upon hearing this, the Great Chu Emperor stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Since you are already a scholar, there is no need to call yourself a commoner anymore."

[Wow, he is indeed a character who rises to fame overnight in a novel. Even in this situation, he can still pass the exam and become a scholar.]

[However, Shen Ping should not have passed the Autumn Examination this year. After all, according to the storybook, he passed the examination when the Third Prince was in power.]

"Jin Wen was careless before, and delayed your studies," thinking of this, the Great Chu Emperor suddenly called Wei Cheng in from outside, "Give Master Shen a letter of recommendation for Yongchang Academy, and let him study there."

After saying this, he smiled at Shen Ping again and said, "Next year, I will be waiting for you in the capital for the imperial examination."

The Great Chu Emperor is indeed not a person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs, but since Wanwan said that this man was a talent and they met him again, he could not just ignore him.

After saying this, he strode out.

However, Shen Ping only came to his senses after the Great Chu Emperor left: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Great Chu Emperor had accomplished another great thing, and he was naturally very happy.

The group packed their bags again and continued on their journey.

The Emperor of Great Chu enjoyed himself along the way, traveling and sightseeing.

But after he left, there was a commotion in the palace.

The first person to make a fuss was the Sixth Princess who now lived in the Jinxiu Palace.

Jinxin stayed alone in Qingyun Palace, and actually had nothing to do, so she naturally had nothing to do all day.

So on this day, an unexpected person came to Qingyun Palace, Yunlan.

Seeing Yunlan coming, Jinxin hurriedly went to greet her: "Why are you here, Sister Yunlan?"

Actually, there is no obvious conflict between Jinxiu Palace and Qingyun Palace.

But everyone in Qingyun Palace knew that when the Queen was still Concubine Ning, she tried to show favor to Concubine De by poisoning Princess Yong'an. With this incident, it would be impossible for Your Majesty to get along with the Empress.

If there are any other actual conflicts, there are not many.

As for the maids in Jinxiu Palace, no one knew what Shen Ning was thinking in her heart. But on the surface, it was just that His Majesty doted on the Imperial Concubine. On the day when the imperial edict to confer the title of Queen was sent to Jinxiu Palace, she even stayed in Qingyun Palace for a whole day and never showed up in Jinxiu Palace.

The maids in Jinxiu Palace also felt that Qingyun Palace had brought shame upon them.

So gradually, the two sides became hostile to each other.

So now that Yunlan came to Qingyun Palace so brazenly, how could Jinxin not be surprised?

Isn't she afraid of being reprimanded by the Empress?

Yunlan seemed unaware of this and lay down heavily on Jinxin's couch.

Jinxin frowned, in fact she was a little disgusted, but she was also controlling herself: "What's wrong with Sister Yunlan?"

"Sister Jinxin doesn't know that the Empress has been busy checking all the servants in the harem these days." Yunlan looked at Jinxin weakly, "Yueran is the head maid beside the Empress, so she naturally doesn't have to worry about these things. As for Bailing, the Empress is attracted by her craftsmanship, so she has to stay by her side every day."

"Alas!" Yunlan sighed heavily when she said this, "So I'm the only one who suffers."

Just like that, Jinxin listened to Yunlan's chatter for a long time before sending her away.

But just outside Qingyun Palace, he ran into the Sixth Princess who was walking towards them.

Seeing Yunlan and Jinxin beside the queen, she was naturally a little surprised: "Oh, I didn't expect Yunlan and Jinxin to get along so well. Does your master know that you two are good friends?"

Yunlan was used to being lectured by the Sixth Princess in Jinxiu Palace, so naturally she dared not say a word.

Jin Xin, however, could not lose face for Qingyun Palace: "Greetings to the Sixth Princess. Our Queen has always taught us to be on good terms with all the other palaces, and I am also following our Queen's wishes."
