He was indeed not mentally prepared to go into the palace to see Liang Hanmin.
Before, his plan was just to have this year's number one scholar submit everyone's joint letter to Liang Hanmin at the "Qionglin Banquet" after the palace examination.
In this way, there is no need to meet Liang Hanmin in person.
He did not tell Lu Fang that although he had met Liang Hanmin several times, in fact, his calves trembled every time he saw Liang Hanmin.
However, just giving up on Liang Siqi...
Naturally, he was unwilling to do so.
Calculating it carefully, he has liked Liang Siqi for more than five years. He was shocked when he first met Liang Siqi, and at that time, he was just a young boy.
After a long while, Su Yu finally made up his mind and said: "You are right. If we don't try it, we may feel regretful in this life."
Then he said: "But...should we invite more people?"
A bitter smile appeared on his face, "To tell you the truth, I can't even speak well in front of the emperor. If it's just the two of us going, it's probably no different than if you go alone."
Lu Fang suddenly felt a little dumbfounded.
Liang Hanmin doesn’t eat people, so why is he afraid of being like this?
It's just that it's obviously not easy to say this to Su Yu, after all, the relationship is not to the point where everything is used as a joke.
He thought about it for a moment and said, "Call me!"
Then he said: "It's time to use my favor, but I think it's better for you to help me find them. Hehe, if we can have people like Fan Boyian to help, we can also build up our momentum, right?"
Su Yu had known Lu Fang's plan for a long time and was not surprised. He just said: "For this matter... it would be better for you to go. Otherwise, should I accompany you?"
Lu Fang didn't hesitate and nodded, "Okay."
What Su Yu said makes sense. After all, Fan Boyian and others owe him this favor.
At that moment, both of them were impatient and hurried out without saying anything more at Yu Yuanwei's mansion. They got on Su Yu's carriage and went directly to the Qishan Duke's Mansion.
For these nobles, the address of their residence is better than that of Yu Yuanwei, and it is closer to the palace.
The residence of the Duke of Qishan is even on Zhuquemen Street.
And even in such a land with a high price, the Qishan Duke's Mansion is still quite spectacular.
It is clearly a manor.
After Su Yu got off the carriage, he said to Lu Fang: "The Duke's Palace of Qishan was given to the original Duke of Qishan by Emperor Taizu when he acquired the country. In the previous dynasty, the Duke's Palace of Qishan was the residence of a certain prince."
Lu Fang could tell that even Su Yu was a little envious of the Qishan Duke's Mansion.
Over the past hundred years, the Duke's Palace of Qishan has always stood firm. Even after experiencing the great changes sixteen years ago, it is still the leader among the nobles.
The holy grace and honor accumulated in this way are indeed not comparable to those of the Su Yu family.
Although Su Shi is now the most powerful person in the world, in terms of the entire history of Dayu, he is still far inferior to the evergreen trees of the three dynasties like Xu Jingnian.
After all, he only became Shangshu Zuopushe after Liang Hanmin ascended the throne. Before that, he was just Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel.
And even an evergreen tree like Xu Jingnian is still not as good as the Qishan Duke's Palace in terms of background.
This is the biggest difference between the powerful and the distinguished.
At the door of Duke Qishan, Su Yu stepped forward and revealed his identity to the concierge.
The concierge did not dare to neglect, and immediately said: "Our young master has just returned from a mission at the Yamen. Please wait a moment, and I will go and inform you immediately."
He didn't even think about whether Fan Boyian would be willing to meet Su Yu.
Of course, Fan Boyian had no reason not to see Su Yu. The concierge came out quickly and invited Su Yu and Lu Fang in.
Lu Fang is now someone who has entered the imperial palace and Prince Rong's Mansion. When he came to the Duke of Qishan, he didn't look like Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, but he was still a little surprised.
It is worthy of being the prince's palace of the previous dynasty.
It is indeed worthy of exhausting the construction techniques of this era.
It may not look as spectacular as those high-rise buildings of later generations, but in the details, there is amazing ingenuity and craftsmanship.
The more noble a place is, the more attention it pays to the details.
After traveling to this world for such a long time, regardless of the imperial palace, the only one he saw that could compare with the Qishan Duke's Palace in terms of pavilion carvings, rockery stacking and other craftsmanship was Prince Rong's Palace. The rest, not to mention the houses of Wang Sidong's family,
Even the Su Zaifu of the Su Yu family has some differences.
There are also a dazzling array of pavilions and waterside pavilions.
Galleries interlaced.
From time to time, servants or maids would pass by, carrying the fragrance and bowing gently.
It’s also much more than the ones in Suzaifu.
Lu Fang quickly lost his sense of direction.
I followed the concierge and walked for about ten minutes before passing through a circular arch and arriving at the courtyard where Fan Boyian lived.
The style of Qishan Duke's Mansion is different from the majestic style of Prince Rong's Mansion, and is more of a Su-style forest garden.
The biggest feeling it gives is that of sophistication and sophistication.
Fan Boyian was already waiting in the yard. When he saw Su Yu and Lu Fang entering the door, he laughed, "What kind of wind has brought Mr. Su and Lu Zijue here today?"
It seems quite polite.
Su Yu chuckled and said, "Brother Bo Lian, I am just the leader today."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Fang.
Lu Fang and Fan Boyian had seen the ceremony and went straight to the point, "Little Duke, I don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Today, I want to come to ask for your favor."
"Please take a seat first."
Fan Boyian waved his hand, and when Lu Fang and Su Yu sat down, he ordered the maid to make tea.
Then he said to Lu Fang: "If there is anything I can do for you, Viscount Lu, just tell me."
It was obvious that he wanted to accept Lu Fang's favor and had no intention of going back on his word.
Lu Fang nodded and said: "Brother Su and I want to go to see the saint tomorrow, and we also ask the young duke to help us. We want to ask the emperor to take back the order and give it back to Princess Yongle. Jiang Jiaping's marriage decree will be given to us, who love us."
A chance for Princess Yongle, a fair chance to recruit a bride."
Fan Boyian was dumbfounded.
He never thought that the "favor" Lu Fang wanted them to repay would actually be something like this.
He originally thought that Lu Fang would keep this favor and use it later. Probably for his official career.
And as someone who works in the imperial court, he can obviously imagine how difficult this matter will be.
How can there be any reason to take back the emperor's decree?
Such things rarely happened before, right?
And I'm afraid this will make the emperor unhappy.
He was silent for a long time, then smiled bitterly, "Zijue Lu, you... really gave me a big problem!"
Then, without waiting for Lu Fang's reply, he added: "It's not that I don't dare to accompany you, it's just... I'm already married, and there's really no reason to go with you... Even if the emperor is willing to see us, when we arrive,
If someone asks me how I got involved in this matter, how should I answer?"
