As soon as Cui Weizhen came back from the office, his son excitedly gathered around him and kept chattering. He understood as soon as he heard it, and looked at Ye Zhenzhen with a half-smile: "I wonder which gentleman the lady threw flowers for."
Oh, now I'm jealous.
Ye Zhenzhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and deliberately said: "I don't know the name of that Jinshi. He is tall and handsome, with a face like a crown jade, and a high-spirited spirit. I don't know how many girls and ladies he attracted to throw flowers into their arms, so I just followed the crowd and threw them away."
Some, I don’t know if the husband is married. Please help me find out later..."
The more Cui Weizhen listened, the darker his face became. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Why are you asking about this? The marriage of the twelfth sister has already been decided."
"Who said it's for the twelfth sister?" Ye Zhenzhen glanced at him sideways: "You're not allowed to be curious?"
Now Cui Weizhen couldn't stand listening anymore, and asked Cui Zhideuan, who still didn't know what happened, to do his homework, and then brought a certain philandering woman into the room.
As soon as he entered, he pressed the person on the soft couch: "Are you curious about what others do? Is that person even better than me?"
Ye Zhenzhen felt uncomfortable and moved uncomfortably. Cui Weizhen instinctively raised his head, and her eyes fell on his face, and she secretly laughed in her heart.
She looked at it very carefully, as if making some comparison: "The gentleman's style is no different from yours."
Cui Weizhen's face turned completely black. He leaned over and bit it very unceremoniously. While grinding his teeth, he whispered: "If I don't take care of you, you will go to heaven."
The force of his blow was not very strong, but the force was very abrasive. Ye Zhenzhen couldn't bear it anymore and had to raise her flag to surrender: "I was wrong, I was wrong, there is no such person, I was just kidding you.
Just for fun."
Cui Weizhen didn't believe it and thought she was lying to avoid punishment.
Ye Zhenzhen asked for trouble. She knew that he was jealous and petty, but she still loved to tease him. She had to continue to defend herself: "Really, if you don't believe me, just ask your son. I have not lost anyone in my life."
, I even threw tweed for you."
Cui Weizhen was slightly startled, remembering the scene when he was riding a horse through the streets and Zhen'er threw flowers to her.
At that time, Zhen'er was dressed in red, and her eyebrows were as delicate and clear as apricot blossoms blooming in March. Among the noisy crowd, she still shined brightly, so that she was instantly recognized among thousands of faces.
Saw her.
Then, she raised the flower basket in her hand and dumped it down. The basket full of apricot blossoms rained down on her head. The strong floral fragrance directly made him choke and sneeze...
The corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch: "What do you call throwing flowers?" His posture seemed to pour cold water on some heartless person.
Ye Zhenzhen was very confident and argued: "I am not a master of martial arts like Xiao Li, how can I throw a flower so accurately? What if it falls into someone else's hands? Naturally, it is safer to drop a basket of flowers.
, there will always be fish that slip through the net and you will be caught.”
Cui Weizhen wanted to remind her that this was not how things slipped through the net, but he had to admit that what she said was very reasonable. Come on, after living together for so many years, our thinking has almost become the same.
As soon as he regained consciousness, he saw that she was crawling out like a sneaky caterpillar, determined to escape. How could Cui Weizhen let her do so? He kissed her rudely and said vaguely: "Lie, cheat."
People must be punished."
Therefore, Ye Zhenzhen was very unfortunate to miss dinner. Thinking of having to deal with Aunt Cui's teasing eyes and her son's questioning tomorrow, she felt depressed.
Cui Weizhen went to the office feeling refreshed.
Li Yuanyi, the Minister of Household Affairs, now has a good relationship with him, and he said hello when they met: "Cui Shilang looks good today, and he is more energetic than those new scholars."
Cui Weizhen flattered him reciprocally, and then asked his superiors what advice he had to come here. Li Shangshu said: "You go to the Hanlin Academy, there is an official matter to be handed over to Wu Hanlin..."
Wu Hanlin is Cui Weizhen's old boss. It would be more convenient for him to hand over the work. Li Shangshu thought so, but Li Youshilang didn't think so. When he saw Cui Weizhen coming out of the minister's errand room early in the morning, his face turned pale.
Not so good.
He said in a sinister tone: "Chief Minister Cui is so capable. He is really in high spirits during happy events."
Cui Weizhen glanced at him indifferently: "Thanks for the compliment, I am in good spirits every day." His eyes paused slightly under his dark green eyes, and then said: "The right servant seems to be in low spirits. Could it be that he is physically weak? What if he is physically weak?
If you can't hold it any longer, you must ask the minister for leave as soon as possible. I'm still busy, so I'll take my leave."
Li Youshilang understood the sarcasm behind his words and was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. He scolded the boy severely in his heart before he could relieve his anger.
Hum, the tides are turning, let’s see how arrogant you can be!
All the government offices are located under the Imperial City, not far apart. As Cui Weizhen walked along, most people nodded politely and said hello to him. After all, with the enthusiasm of the account book training, the attitude of each department towards him was not too bad.
, this is one of the reasons why Li Shangshu is willing to let him go out to do things.
After finishing his errands, when he came out of Wu Hanlin's errand room, he saw his junior brother Wang Yuxuan leading two people into the courtyard. The two people were older than him, but they were full of unpolished scholarly energy and arrogance.
, whose identity is already revealed.
He knew the thirty-year-old man on the left, who was Tao Yuning, the new top scholar. The articles he had previously submitted were very consistent with his reform ideas. Although they were slightly radical, they were also very rare. This must have been the reason why he won the first place.
reason.
He also recognized Cui Weizhen and looked over excitedly, but because the situation was not right, he did not speak rashly.
Cui Weizhen's eyes did not stay on him for long, but fell on another man.
This man is tall and handsome, with a face like a crown jewel. Even though he is following Wang Yuxuan, he has a confidence and calmness that is not inferior to others. Just one look and you can tell that this man is not a thing in the pool.
In some ways, this person is similar to Cui Weizhen.
Unexpectedly, I remembered Zhen'er's description last night...
His mood was not very good.
Wang Yuxuan didn't know that he was in a bad mood. He just felt that he always looked calm and calm, making it impossible to see any emotion. In addition, the relationship between the two had eased a lot in recent years, and he himself became a father.
My temper has also improved a lot.
So he took the initiative to greet Cui Weizhen and introduced the two people behind him: "These two are Tao Yuning, the No. 1 Scholar, and Qin Siye, the Chuanlu. They will come to the Hanlin Academy to attend Yamen from today on."
It stands to reason that the imperial court will allocate official positions after passing the Jinshi examination, but not all positions are available. Even if there are, some Jinshi are not good enough, and many people spend their days in the capital, either looking for connections or spending money.
Days and days, waiting for the court to make arrangements for positions.
Qin Siye was able to enter the Imperial Academy so early, presumably for a reason.
Cui Weizhen was not overly enthusiastic. He nodded lightly and said hello before leaving. He could faintly hear his junior brother giving them some advice: "Cui Shilang is very talented and capable. You should learn more..."
Immediately afterwards, nothing could be heard clearly.
