Chapter 318: Is he worthy enough?
Last life.
Oh no.
The annual autumn imperial examinations should be set by the Ministry of Rites, and the files will be stored in the Ministry of Rites and guarded by the Imperial Guards. But now, the emperor himself set the questions, and the files are under his nose?
Lin Qingjun was slightly depressed. Could it be that the direction of this life was different from the previous one? Or was it because of her arrival that the direction of some things changed?
Or?
"Why is the emperor suddenly like this?" What happened?
The smile on Ji Chenchuan's lips deepened, and his expression showed an irresistible sense of pride.
"My lady, has anyone ever told you that you are really smart?"
"Yes, the emperor has discovered something. He found that four officials, especially those of the seventh and eighth ranks, have been replaced in two months. Although it is normal to replace officials, four officials of the seventh and eighth ranks have been replaced in such a short period of time. Although these officials are not of high rank, they have real power. Some of them are even seventh-rank tea inspectors. This is something that cannot be ignored."
The people of Daqi love to drink tea. Even if they drink tea in a small shed, they still drink tea. Some people even love tea so much that they can drink it brewed with cold water.
The Tea Inspector is a very special position among all the court officials. Of course, it is also very easy for him to tamper with things. Every time he arrives at a tea garden, as long as he uses the pen in his hand to change the second-grade tea to the first-grade tea, the tea merchant will make a fortune, and the silver received by the Tea Inspector will also increase.
To put it bluntly, this is just another way to make money, and it's a lucrative job.
He continued, "...So the Emperor arranged for a thorough investigation, and suddenly discovered that it was all the work of the Crown Prince, and that Xiao Yuan had also come up with it. Xiao Yuan was a candidate for this Autumn Examination, and he was also Lin Zhi's favorite student. Therefore, the Emperor felt that this matter needed to be intervened. Therefore, he was asked to set the questions for this Autumn Examination to prevent anyone from seeking personal gain."
Ji Chenchuan said this with profound meaning.
"Guess who was the one who made His Majesty realize that he had changed four seventh and eighth-rank officials in two months?"
"Who stripped Xiao Yuan of everything and put it before His Majesty?"
"Also, who came up with the idea for His Majesty to set the questions himself?"
He blinked his eyes, and his expression of "please praise me" made Lin Qingjun laugh.
She cooperated by stretching out her hand, touching his jet-black hair with a smile and praising him like coaxing a child.
"It's you, it's you. You're so smart, you're so awesome. Is that okay?"
But just as she finished speaking, she froze. Were they a little too close? She withdrew her hand, coughed awkwardly, and changed the subject.
"In that case, I'm relieved. If there's nothing else, I'll go pay my respects to the old lady."
Ji Chenchuan grabbed him and said, "No hurry, go see the gift I prepared for you first."
Gift?
Lin Qingjun was extremely puzzled.
It was only when she lay on the soft bed, he undid the heavy jewelry on her head, gently combed her hair, and his slender fingers pressed the sensitive spots on her head lightly or heavily, that she knew what his so-called gift was.
Her heart warmed, and she fell into a deep sleep with this unique gift from him. However, she didn't know that a relaxed smile had already appeared on the corner of her mouth.
That's right, the gift Ji Chenchuan gave her was to let her have a good sleep, without having to think about Ji Wu, Qi, Xiao Yuan, or even the Wu'an Marquis Mansion and those students. She just fell into a deep sleep without any burden.
When Xiaotao Xieyang saw this, she was not only shocked, but more.
"That's great! Our young lady finally married someone who loves her."
"Yeah, I thought the prince didn't understand romance, but I never thought he was so good at it."
"Look at them, the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, isn't it a beautiful picture?"
"Of course, they are so handsome and beautiful, they must be pleasing to the eye. I just wonder if our future young master or young lady will be even more beautiful?"
"I definitely will."
Ji Chenchuan didn't pay attention to the noise outside. He was only focused on making sure Lin Qingjun had a good sleep.
Others think she is fierce and cruel. Others don't feel sorry for her, but he does. From her rebirth to now, this woman has never stopped for a moment. Even a small toast of tea can cause so many troubles. They really won't be satisfied unless they kill her.
His plan today was to offer tea, kowtow to his parents, and then bring her here to have a good sleep.
He had personally chosen this bed, and it was made of top-quality large-fruited red sandalwood. This wood wasn't as precious as pearwood, but its advantage lay in the woody fragrance it emitted, which was a sleep aid. He had tried it, and it was indeed good.
And this mattress is also woven with the finest palm, with the right softness and hardness. Coupled with the newly laid quilt, once you lie down, you will feel like you are being gently wrapped by someone.
And this pillow is not a porcelain pillow. That thing gives people a headache. Although it feels cool, it is always uncomfortable if you sleep on it for too long. He uses the best down. He can't remember how many geese he has killed. He only uses the fluffiest feathers among the goose feathers. He removes the fishy smell, removes the bacteria, and dries them all by himself.
He looked at the woman who was sleeping with a smile on her face and smiled dotingly. He had been doing these things bit by bit since his rebirth. Wasn't it for this moment?
very nice.
He put down the comb, lowered the bed curtains, and then lowered the curtains to block out the dazzling sunlight outside. The room was neither bright nor dark. Isn't this an excellent sleeping space?
very nice.
"...Your Highness, Xiao Yuan requests an audience."
At this moment, Lushui came to report.
Ji Chenchuan hissed, "Be quiet, she finally fell asleep, don't wake her up."
Lushui's mouth twitched. He had already been speaking quietly, and this was the outer room. How could the Crown Prince's wife be woken up? Was the Crown Prince too concerned?
Ji Chenchuan snorted coldly, "I originally thought that no one would come to my house today, but I never thought that someone would dare to come to my house?"
That Qin was really tactless, coming to cause trouble for her so early in the morning. This Xiao Yuan was even more tactless, coming to cause trouble for her on the first day after their marriage. What was going on? Could it be that he really thought he was the protagonist of a tragic novel, and came to the crematorium to chase his wife?
Just him? Is he worthy?
Moreover, in this world, there is no male protagonist at all. There is only him, the strongest villain in history. As long as he is around, the male protagonist will be strangled to death in the cradle as soon as he shows his head.
Ji Chenchuan sneered, "It seems that Xiao Yuan still refuses to give up. Okay, this time, I will make him give up again. Lead him to the pavilion. I will be there in a moment."
Lushui accepted the order and left.
Xiao Yuan stood in front of the Wu'an Marquis Mansion with a pale face. Until now, he couldn't believe that Lin Qingjun really got married, and the man was not him. He felt like a very important piece was missing from his chest. It was not only empty, but also painful.
