Chapter 46 You disappointed your mother
Yun Wanchen curled her lips and smiled slightly, then reached out and touched her little head soothingly, her eyes were dark and cold, like cold stars.
【Hey, brother, what's going on? 】
【Why do I feel that he suddenly feels a little sad? 】
【Is it my imagination? 】
[...]
For some reason, Yun Wanning suddenly felt that his mood had changed.
Outside the front yard.
The man in a dark blue robe leaned against the red wooden pillars of the corridor with his arms folded across his chest, his chin slightly raised, his expression casual.
‘Gululu~’
There was a sound of rolling wooden wheels.
The boy in black appeared at the corner of the corridor pushing a wheelchair.
"Brother Mingyue~"
A faint joy suddenly appeared in Gu Heng's eyes, and he raised his legs to greet Yun Wanchen.
“Long time no see, how are you doing, brother Mingyue?”
"Everything remains as usual, where is Jin'an?"
Yun Wanchen smiled slightly, as if the stars were blooming in his eyes, the ice and snow melted in an instant, and there was no trace of haze.
Jin'an is the name of Gu Heng.
Gu Heng touched his forehead and said, "I just came back from Nanzhou Mansion. Except for being tired, everything is fine."
"Brother Mingyue, I'm sorry. I came back too late to pick you up.”
In the Dawu Kingdom, the status of imperial merchants was not high. There were twelve imperial merchants, who managed various royal industries such as salt, weaving, silk, tea, iron ore, and land transportation.
Except for personal connections and business, the imperial merchants had no actual say in the court, but there were many things going on.
Especially the Gu family, which manages land transportation and tea. As the young master, Gu Heng is extremely busy all day long.
"It doesn't matter."
"By the way," Gu Heng looked at the legs on the wheelchair and inquired with his eyes, "Brother Mingyue and Uncle Yun Qi are on this trip to Jingzhou. How? Is there any gain?”
"It's a worthwhile trip."
A faint smile flashed across Yun Wanchen's lips, and he admitted generously.
Soon he will stand up again. After all, he can’t hide this matter. Although he wants to hide it for a short time, if he wants to throw this matter on Jingzhou’s head, he will lose his little sister’s secret. To keep it, you must leak some news at the right time.
"Ah? Really? That's great. I would like to congratulate Brother Mingyue in advance~"
Gu Heng couldn't help laughing happily. It could be seen that at this moment, he was I feel happy for my friend from the bottom of my heart.
However, things are unpredictable and people will change after all, right?
Yun Wanchen lowered his eyelids slightly to cover up the dark spots in his eyes.
In the hall, the waiter served tea and then retreated. Apart from Gu Heng and Yun Wanchen, only Cang Yan, who was quiet and had no sense of presence, was left.
After chatting for a few words, Gu Heng's expression suddenly became awkward. Yun Wanchen took the tea cup and blew it gently, his eyes moved slightly, and he spoke calmly.
“Jin’an seems to have something to say.”
Hearing this, Gu Heng looked even more embarrassed, gritted his teeth and spoke softly.
"Brother Mingyue, to be honest, in addition to visiting you this time, I actually have something else to ask for~"
The voice became weaker and weaker, and Gu Heng's handsome face showed a slight smile. Red, feeling ashamed and embarrassed.
Everyone wants to save face. If he had to, he really didn't want to say this to his friends.
"Oh? Jin'an has something to say, but it doesn't matter. There is no need to hesitate between you and me."
Yun Wanchen smiled softly, like the bright moon in his arms.
"Thank you, Brother Mingyue. In that case, let me tell you directly."
Gu Heng coughed, suppressing his embarrassment and said, "My aunt's family has a cousin who died last year. I won the top three Jinshi in the imperial examination, but I haven’t gotten any official position so far~”
In the Dawu Kingdom, the Jinshi are divided into the top three.
Yijia is the number one scholar, the second best scholar, and the third best scholar. They are called "Jinshi and No.". There are three people in total.
The second class is called "Jinshi", and there are fifty people in total. As for the third class, there are one or two hundred people.
What does it mean to be ‘born with a Jinshi’?
That’s because I didn’t pass the exam, and it was a false name to show comfort. Otherwise, why add the word ‘same’?
Therefore, the top three Jinshi exams are worthless, and after passing the Jinshi exam, you cannot continue to take the exam.
Born as a Jinshi, if you are lucky, you can be selected to study for the Imperial Examination. When the next imperial examination comes, you will be dismissed and stay in Haojing to find an official position.
Those who are unlucky will have no choice but to wait forever, or be sent to a remote place where no one wants to go.
"My aunt's family has made many connections, but she has hit a wall at every turn. My grandmother knew that I had a close personal relationship with Brother Mingyue, so she and my aunt begged me to find a way with Brother Mingyue."
"Little brother. I didn’t want to agree, but my grandmother and aunt wanted to kneel to me for this. They are elders. How could I accept their kneeling?”
“In desperation, I had no choice but to shamelessly come to Mingyue? Brother, I hope Brother Mingyue can do this for me so that I can go back to work. I would be very grateful!"
Yun Wanchen tightened her fingers on the tea cup slightly, and all the luck in her heart was completely eliminated at this moment! Turn into ashes.
Sure enough~
My little sister’s words are all right!
Ha~
He smiled lightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes at all.
“So that’s the case, but even if I was ‘born with a Jinshi’, I wouldn’t be able to get any good official position.”
"Brother Mingyue is willing to help. As long as I can find an official position that is not open to outsiders, I and my aunt's family will be grateful. How can I dare to hope for a good official position."
Even if the number one scholar is only a sixth grade Official, how can a person who was "born as a Jinshi" be rejected by the number one scholar by 300 blocks, dare to think of a good position?
It would be nice to have something to do.
Gu Heng expressed great understanding of this.
“Okay, I will try my best.”
"Then I'm so grateful to Brother Mingyue. After this is done, I will definitely ask my aunt and cousin to come to thank Brother Mingyue in person..."
More than half an hour later, Gu Heng left behind more than a dozen valuable supplements. Leave in a hurry.
Mrs. Yun came in from behind the door.
"Cang Yan, please step aside first. I have something to say to the Crown Prince."
"Yes."
After getting rid of Cang Yan, Mrs. Yun looked at the man in the wheelchair who was like a breeze and a bright moon, her eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.
"Chen'er, you clearly know..., why did you agree to him?"
She originally thought that when he grew up, he would be able to handle his own affairs, but in her heart Still unable to let go, he handed Yun Wanning to the nanny and followed her quietly.
But who knew~
“You have disappointed my mother very much.”
"Mother~"
Yun Wanchen gently touched his forehead and sighed helplessly, "Since you know that the child knows this, why can't you give the child more trust?"
That's it. Deny him easily.
"You have already agreed to him, how do you expect your mother to believe you? At the least, you are asking for trouble, at worst, you are seeking power and accepting bribes. It does not count the harm to yourself, but you are also slandering It ruins the reputation of your father and the Yun family..."
"How can my mother say it is so serious? It is reasonable and within the law to find connections to get a small job if you are from the same Jinshi background."
"You, you still talk back? Is that the problem? The problem is that Gu Heng... you still help him when he does that?" Madam Yun burst into tears of anger.
Because she thought of something very important when Yun Wanchen went to see Gu Heng. Xiaosi had said before that if Yaoer goes against the heroine in the future, she will be killed by the heroine. The misfortune caused by several suitors was extremely miserable.
And this Gu Heng is obviously one of the suitors of the heroine, so it is very likely that he is among the culprits who harmed Yaoer.
Having harmed Yao'er to such an extent, and betrayed and framed Chen'er, such a ruthless and disrespectful rat, she didn't understand why Yun Wanchen, who had always been sensible, would still help him?
"Mom, please stop crying. The kid has his own thoughts on this matter. Please trust the kid. If mom doesn't believe it, then step forward and the kid will tell mom all the plans, okay?"
Seeing his mother shed tears due to anger, Yun Wanchen felt heartbroken and felt extremely guilty at the same time.
If I let my father know that he will make my mother cry, I am afraid that I will inevitably receive two slaps from my father.
“Do you really care?”
Mrs. Yun wiped away her tears with her handkerchief and looked at him with red eyes.
Yun Wanchen nodded heavily.
"Okay, then I believe you, now tell me what your plan is~"
"..."
Appease Mrs. Yun, Yun Wanchen asked Cang Yan to push him to Qingyuan.
In the Qingyuan, there was a faint smell of medicine. Yun Wanchen frowned slightly. From a distance, he saw Uncle Qi teaching his girl to practice internal skills under the magnolia tree.
The two of them are quite close. It seems that after hearing the little sister's voice, Uncle Qi put forward some feelings.
A faint smile appeared in Yun Wanchen's eyes.
Uncle Qi is really quite old. If he really has feelings for Miss Yinshuang, it would be a good thing.
"It's the Crown Prince, Master Qi, the Crown Prince is here."
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the handsome and magnificent young man in white under the Yue Cave Gate, Yinshuang's eyes paused slightly and he spoke out a reminder Yun Zhan shouted and then stood up from the ground.
Yun Zhan turned his head to look, smiled and waved to him.
“Come here.”
Yun Wanchen moved his fingers, and Cang Yan pushed him towards that direction.
Yun Zhan bent down, reached out and patted his leg, "How have you been these two days?"
"It's good, Uncle Qi. I shouldn't have disturbed you, right?"
His eyes were teasing and he smiled slightly. Yun Zhan's expression froze slightly and he subconsciously turned to look at Yinshuang.
After seeing her expression as normal, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I want to say that I'm disturbing you, will you get out?"
Yun Wanchen: "..."
He suppressed his smile and said seriously, "Qi Uncle, I came to see you because I need your help.”
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"..."
Just as Yun Wanchen was sent away, Yun Zheng sent someone over again.
"Master Qi, the Duke of Guo asked you to come over."
"Okay, I understand."
Yun Zhan looked at Yinshuang, "Brother wants to see me for something, I'll go over there."
"Okay."
Study.
After Yun Zhan entered, he closed the door with his backhand and walked towards the desk.
“Brother, is there any news about the thing I asked you to do?”
"Yeah."
Behind the desk, Yun Zheng looked up at him and handed him a portrait.
"The Shadow Hall had collected the information there earlier. After getting the order, it immediately transferred all the information about the princess and sent it over quickly. You can see for yourself."
< br>The Shadow Hall is a special organization he established to understand the situation of various countries. Its duty is to collect all information from other countries so that he will not know anything about the enemy during the war.
But I didn’t expect it to be unexpectedly convenient.
Yun Zhan took the portrait and in an instant, a face that was so beautiful that it made him lose his mind appeared in his eyes.
The woman's face is picturesque, cold and stunning, with a bit of coldness and aloofness between her eyebrows.
The more I look at this temperament and demeanor, the more I feel that it is exactly the same as Yin Shuang.
Yun Zhan put down the portrait, opened the envelope on the side, took out the information and read it carefully.
Feng Xi, the princess of Dayu Kingdom, is seventeen years old.
"According to the secret report, there has always been only one crown princess in Dayu Kingdom, and there has been no rumor of seizing the throne. The crown princess's position is as secure as Mount Tai."
"Now it's even more exciting. He is still in the Royal Palace of Dayu Kingdom, and occasionally appears on the streets of Fengtian City to greet the victorious soldiers. "
Yun Zheng squinted his eyes and spoke thoughtfully.
According to the secret report, Emperor Dayu's imperial chariot in his early years injured Gengen, and he only had one heir, Feng Xi. Because he did not want to lose the throne, he never adopted the prince. Instead, he raised Feng Xi by his side as the prince since he was a child. Same training.
Then what’s going on in their house now?
Xiaosi's voice is definitely not false. The only possibility is that the one in Dayu Kingdom's palace is fake. She has replaced the identity and face of the real princess and deceived the entire Dayu Kingdom.
But forget about the civil and military officials and the people. Even Emperor Dayu, who single-handedly raised the imperial concubine, couldn't tell the truth from the false?
Why is this happening?
How could the majestic princess be harmed into such a situation without anyone knowing?
"Xiaosi has confirmed that that is definitely a fake. Brother, I need to trouble you to continue investigating this matter."
Yun Zhan folded the portrait and hid it inside his clothes.
“Tsk, do you really like that girl?”
Yun Zheng raised his eyebrows and looked at him teasingly.
"My fair lady, a gentleman is always brave. Over the years, apart from Yao'er and my sister-in-law, she is the only woman around me. I think I like her."
Being teased by my brother, Yun Zhan coughed slightly, his handsome face stained with a thin blush, but he still admitted it generously.
There is no shame in admiring girls, and besides, he also learned this from his eldest brother, or it can be said that it is the inheritance of the Yun family.
Although he was not yet born at the time, he heard Brother Zhongli say several times that his eldest sister-in-law's family was exiled and their engagement was forcibly broken off by the Lin family. It was so pitiful.
When the eldest brother found out, he chased after her with a knife without saying a word. On the way, he hacked to death the government servant who wanted to do evil things to his sister-in-law, as well as countless ruffians who bullied his sister-in-law's family, and silently acted as a hero in secret.
After sending his sister-in-law's family safely to the place of exile, he threw himself into a nearby military camp and began to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service.
Others only make meritorious service to honor their ancestors and win titles as generals, but he made meritorious service just to bring his sister-in-law back from the bitter cold place at the border.
With that passion, he actually accomplished everything. Moreover, he was promoted to a higher rank and received the late emperor's favor.
It is true that the flowers planted with intention do not bloom, but the willows planted with no intention of creating shade.
"It's good if you can understand your own heart. No matter who you like, big brother will support you. You can rest assured to leave this matter to big brother."
Yun Zheng patted him shoulders, and the words were extremely gratifying.
It’s not easy to raise my brother to such an old age before he finally understands.
Get him a wife and start a family early so that he can give an explanation to his ancestors and parents.
To be honest, he started worrying about Yun Zhan's lifelong affairs two or three years ago. He often had headaches and felt that Yun Zhan was nothing like him.
