While Gu Shouxin was speaking, Gu Ren kept winking at the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, not caring whether others could see it or not. In any case, many officials who had never seen Gu Ren before thought that this little boy was cute but had a problem with his eyes!
Before the Empress Dowager could speak, the Emperor interjected: "Gu Er, the age I mentioned doesn't mean you have to be that age to join. If you want to join early, join early; if you don't want to, then join when you reach that age! Gu Er, you really don't know how to be flexible at all."
Gu Shouxin: "..."
Don't think I didn't see that brat giving you guys a meaningful look!
Gu Shouxin had long noticed that the emperor of the Great Zhou was very neglecting his duties. Ever since Gu Ren pulled Gu En and Lu Zheng into the bookstore, there have been many more books on the market, and they have not been suppressed. Why is that? Because the current emperor likes to read them, so who dares to suppress them?
As a devoted fan of vernacular stories, the emperor would naturally agree.
Gu Yingxue was also quite helpless. She didn't expect Gu Erdan to bring this up in this kind of situation. So, her second uncle had no choice but to agree.
After the siblings sat down, Gu Ren looked at Gu Yingxue smugly.
Gu Yingxue pursed her lips and said angrily, "Gu Erdan, you have no sportsmanship! You just said that, knowing full well that the Emperor would help you. This round doesn't count!"
Gu Ren pouted, "I knew you wouldn't admit it! Hehe, I don't care, I just want to go to the Royal Academy. I'll be seven next year, so I can play for six years, which is equivalent to primary school. Then my second uncle will catch me and make me study for another six years, which is equivalent to middle school. Then I'll be eighteen, and I can go wild! I'll go conquer the stars and the sea! So, San Niu, you and Da Tou aren't as good as me! I was born into this world, while you were born into it, so you've lost more than ten years of your lives! Think about it, I started practicing my basic skills two years earlier. After practicing for ten years or so, when I'm eighteen, I'll have the ability to protect myself and can go sailing! And you and Da Tou? You'll probably still be at home taking care of the kids! Hehe, aren't you envious!"
Gu Yingxue: "...To be honest, I'm quite envious."
"What are you talking about?" At this moment, Gu Xin and Gu Si came over. They had finished eating, and the others had almost finished eating as well, and they were chatting.
"Third sister, fifth sister, I'm so happy! I'm telling Sister Xue'er that I'm going to the Royal Academy to make a contribution!" Gu Ren said obediently.
As a writer, he has always believed in the protagonist's halo, so whether it's Lu Zheng or Gu Xin, he is always obedient in front of them.
"Oh dear, Renren, you actually want to go to the Royal Academy? The students there are all so old, aren't you afraid they'll bully you?" As her older sister, Gu Si was still very worried about her younger brother.
"Sisi, do you really think Renren will be bullied, instead of him bullying others?" Gu Xin looked at Gu Si in surprise.
Your brother and you were born from the same mother, don't you really know what kind of person he is?
"Third Sister understands me best!" Gu Ren chuckled. "I definitely won't let anyone bully me. Besides, look at me, my eldest sister's husband is a general from the Peng family, my second sister's husband is the heir of the Duke of Cheng'en, the Empress's nephew, and my future third sister's husband is the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo, a proper second-rank general. With just those three by my side, no one will dare to bully me! So, Fifth Sister, don't worry about me."
