Gu Hanzhang glanced at Chengfeng coolly, and made another note of Chengfeng's account in his mind.
"Disease enters through the mouth, and disaster comes out of the mouth. If you can't change this habit, I can only correct it for you on behalf of Duke Cheng." Gu Hanzhang's expression was inexplicably profound.
Chengfeng didn't know what the consequences would be. He always put his mouth first and was happy.
"No, am I reminding you? My sister-in-law loves you so much, so you have to treat her well. I bet that if you have anything to do with her, be careful that this Lu Xiuyuan will take advantage of you. Being able to be the top pick in high school proves that
He is not a simple person, not a fool anyway." Cheng Feng said in a funny tone.
Gu Hanzhang's expression was indifferent, "If you think I'm so easy to deal with, you're totally wrong. He won't have a chance. The most important thing is that Ali only has me in his heart."
Hearing this, Cheng Feng curled his lips and felt a little sour.
Obviously this person was not like this before, but since he got married to Chao Li, he seems to have changed. He always talks about Chao Li. It really makes people wonder if he is Gu Hanzhang himself.
There is nothing else. It would be too much to show how affectionate he and Chaoli are in front of him from time to time.
Who is no longer a loner? How about acting like this in front of him?
"Yes, yes, my sister-in-law only has you in her heart. She is so sultry. I have never seen you like this before." Cheng Feng hummed softly.
Gu Hanzhang said no more, the carriage had already missed Lu Xiuyuan and the three of them and headed towards the Royal Garden.
The Qionglin Banquet is not only allowed to be attended by Jinshi. It is true that it is held for new Jinshi after the imperial examination. However, the banquet is not too formal, so in principle, all officials from the capital can participate.
However, some officials do not have high official positions, so they will not go, otherwise it would be a shame to go.
Whether in the imperial court or in aristocratic families in the capital, most people are just looking at what others are doing. If your official position is small, you will easily be squeezed out, and your wife and daughter will also be bullied. This is also the case.
Very normal thing.
Originally, Emperor Renxiao planned to come in person, but Gu Hanzhang felt unwell just before leaving the palace and would not attend the Qionglin Banquet today. Some people did not know this.
The emperor's attendance at the Qionglin Banquet was just to show that he did not care about his status and was close to the civil and military officials.
But even if Emperor Renxiao went there today, he wouldn't be very interested.
The process of every Qionglin Banquet was the same. He showed his face, said a few words and then left. He didn't eat anything at the Qionglin Banquet, let alone chat with any minister for how long.
"By the way, what did the emperor say when he asked you to go to the imperial study room today?" Cheng Feng asked.
The news that Shi Jingtian entered the palace overnight yesterday had reached his ears, so he guessed that Emperor Renxiao summoned Gu Hanzhang to the imperial study for this matter.
However, in fact, Emperor Renxiao did not mention this matter, but mentioned the palace examination. It is not known whether he had other plans or did not believe him.
"It's about the Qionglin Banquet, but I think there must be something strange when General Shi comes back. I don't know what happened." Gu Hanzhang replied.
I hope it won't affect him from taking Chaoli out for fun. After all, time has passed in a blink of an eye and he will be able to take a rest in three days. Even the place has been chosen. Don't let anything happen at this juncture.
"I'm afraid there is a problem at the border, and it is not a trivial matter. Otherwise, General Shi would not have entered the palace overnight. In that case, the emperor should have known about it a long time ago, otherwise there would be no palace door for General Shi. Hanzhang, the emperor is
Doesn’t it mean I don’t trust you anymore, or maybe this matter is not too big?”
Gu Hanzhang shook his head, "I don't know, but there was nothing unusual when he talked to me today. He should still believe me."
Cheng Feng frowned, "Then we have to be careful not to come into contact with the prince. The emperor is a suspicious and seriously ill person."
Regarding Cheng Feng, Gu Hanzhang already had a plan in mind.
King Liang has not been in contact with them. In fact, it is to protect Gu Hanzhang and Cheng Feng. If he fails to fight for that position, at least on the surface, Gu Hanzhang and Cheng Feng are not on the side, they are safe and will not involve them.
Over the years, Gu Hanzhang has always been very cautious and has never shown any abnormality.
Emperor Renxiao's approach is indeed abnormal, but he doesn't know why, so he can only investigate it in depth.
I hope the incident at the border is a minor matter and nothing serious happens.
There was no words for the rest of the journey, both of them had their own thoughts.
"We're here." Gu Hanzhang said lightly.
Today's Qionglin Banquet appears to be a banquet for the No. 2 pick and those Jinshi. In fact, the protagonists are not them, but several princes and ministers, as well as Gu Hanzhang.
As one of the protagonists, Gu Hanzhang had to arrive early even if he was unhappy. This was Emperor Renxiao's request.
It was also for this reason that he did not go back home to tell Chaoli alone. Instead, he asked Qin Feng to send a message that he would go back later tonight and had to go to the Qionglin Banquet.
After getting off the carriage, Gu Hanzhang and Cheng Feng walked into the Royal Garden one after another.
As soon as he stepped inside, someone greeted Gu Hanzhang, and several courtiers greeted Gu Hanzhang with smiles on their faces.
Gu Hanzhang looked calm and agreed to them.
One after another, more and more courtiers arrived. At this time, the top three in the palace examination had not come yet. I think they were delayed because of the parade.
There is no time limit for the Qionglin Banquet. There is no need for anyone to come before the banquet can start. Today's banquet is open, everyone can walk around with a wine glass, and the food is richly prepared. It is even considered that some Jinshi are not from the capital.
The people have flavors from all over Daqi.
The Qionglin Banquet without Emperor Renxiao was actually meaningless. The courtiers did not need to compete for favors to express themselves, so it became a time for the new scholars to express themselves. Many scholars took the initiative to raise their wine glasses to talk to the courtiers.
Chao Lu was being complimented because he was Lu Xiuyuan's teacher, and he himself had a smile on his face. After all, his student became the number one scholar in a new subject, and he himself was praised by Emperor Renxiao.
For a moment, Chao Lu felt proud, and then thought of the beautiful lady Die Yi in his house, feeling that he had now reached the highlight of his life.
From this point of view, it seems that being separated from Fang Huimin is not a good thing.
"The Crown Prince is here too." Chao Lu greeted Gu Hanzhang with a smile.
Gu Hanzhang's eyes were full of indifference, "In terms of rank, identity, and status, I am more qualified to come. Why do you ask your lord such a question?"
Since Chaoli has no feelings for this father in his heart, he doesn't mind venting his anger for her.
Although Chaoli had plans privately, it was just to make Chaolv happy now, and he would lose him later, but seeing his happy face, Gu Hanzhang felt unhappy in his heart, and his tone was not very good.
When Chaoli was still unmarried in the palace, he did not know how many sins he had suffered.
