Chapter 23 The hero is a cousin

After the second girl from the Hou Mansion got married, she was about to try again.

Because there is still a young master in Hou’s residence who is going to participate in this session of the test, Gu Wenjing felt the tension of his original test during this period. He turned away the entertainment during this period and returned to the mansion on time. Point out Pensheng’s article.

Regarding Peng Sheng’s article, Gu Wenjing is also uncertain whether this level can be on the list.

At the beginning, he passed the Huiyuan and Zhuangyuan exams, but that was because he inherited the ability of the original owner, and he did read hard with ulterior motives, plus he and the original owner are very aura in writing articles, so the level is very high.

Peng Sheng’s level is far from him, and Gu Wenjing is not sure what level he will try to be on the list. After all, he did not read any candidate’s article that ranked much lower than him.

Therefore, the only thing Gu Wenjing can tell for Peng Sheng’s level is that he will definitely not be able to get the top three. When he took the test, the second and third candidates besides him were all extremely talented, and now they are all working in the Imperial Academy.

In Gu Wenjing’s opinion, Pengsheng’s level is a bit poor, but on the surface he is still satisfied and encourages him: “I enter the examination room and play my true level, relax my mentality, and the chances of winning are still great.”

Gu Wenjing was not sure whether Peng Sheng would pass the exam or fail the exam. Anyway, he had a bowl of chicken soup for the soul before the exam.

Peng Sheng didn’t know Gu Wenjing’s thoughts. He thought that the number one cousin said that he could pass the exam, and he must be able to pass the exam. He immediately smiled and left with the homework assigned by Gu Wenjing.

The meeting will come as scheduled.

Yuan Shi followed the same test preparation package as when Gu Wenjing took the test, and prepared Pensheng properly.

Gu Wenjing didn’t ask for a leave on the day of the list. He used the leave to help Peng Sheng sprint before the exam.

When he returned from the household department, he felt that he was not at all happy in the house, and he had a good idea. He did not ask Peng Sheng’s test results. If he passed the test, he would be beaming.

Gu Wenjing took the initiative to find Peng Sheng to comfort him: “You are only a teenager, and you will be very young after three years. Don’t be discouraged!”

Peng Sheng sighed. Although he was still very frustrated in his heart and failed to make it in one fell swoop, failing the ranking means losing the ranking. No matter how lost he is, he can’t change the facts. But just as Gu Wenjing said, he is still young, and young is capital.

“Let my cousin worry, I just feel a little sorry for everyone’s expectations of me.”

Gu Wenjing patted him on the shoulder, “What are you going to do next?”

“I plan to go back to Yuzhou. Peng Sheng said, “I disturbed my uncle, aunt, and cousin this year, but I haven’t been home for a year, and I miss my father and mother in my heart. ”

Gu Wenjing didn’t say anything against Peng Sheng’s plan to go home. After all, there are still three years before the next session of the conference. You can’t let Peng Sheng live in the Hou Mansion for another three years, right? Peng Sheng is not homeless, and he has reached the age of marriage.

So Gu Wenjing said: “Whether you go home, my aunt must miss you very much. My teacher has a good relationship with a great scholar in Yuzhou. I ask the teacher to write a letter of recommendation for you. Then you can go to Yuzhou for advice. That big scholar.”

Peng Sheng’s face showed surprise: “Thank you cousin!”

This kind of help is just a small effort for Gu Wenjing, but it is an opportunity for Peng Sheng.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

After Gu Wenjing dispelled the idea of ​​gaining the merits of the dragon, he wanted to get an amulet for the Gu family. And no more important credit has been found for the high-yield grains to feed the people all over the world.

He had already found out clearly that although this ancient world was an overhead dynasty, in many places it was similar to the history of Gu Wenjing’s journey through the pre-modern world, so he felt that this world should also have high-yield food such as corn, potato, sweet potato, etc. It’s just that it hasn’t been introduced to the Central Plains.

As the first son of the Hou Mansion, Gu Wenjing himself was a third-rank official, and he naturally had a handy manpower under his hand. Ning Yuanhou also specially allocated a group of his men for his use.

He asked his loyal subordinates to recruit experienced sailors to go out to sea to find those crops for him. Going to sea is a very dangerous thing, and finding high-yield crops is also a matter of luck, so Gu Wenjing asked his subordinates to prepare goods to be dumped to small countries near the Central Plains while looking for the high-yield crops he wanted, so that at least he would not lose money.

The merchant ships that went to sea couldn’t come back in one or two days. After Gu Wenjing left the matter to his capable subordinates, he didn’t take care of it any more.

After the weather in the capital cooled down, the Seventh Prince who went to Liangzhou for disaster relief finally returned.

This time the Seventh Prince was in charge of the disaster relief, and the errands were done beautifully. He received the emperor’s award, and the Seventh Prince was on the forefront of the storm.

Gu Wenjing originally thought that the Seventh Prince would woo him as soon as possible after he came back. After all, the Seventh Prince had completely confirmed the strength of his plan after he walked in Liangzhou.

But I didn’t expect that for more than two months, the Seventh Prince hadn’t contacted him, as if he didn’t mean to win him at all.

Gu Wenjing didn’t feel embarrassed by being passionate, but had doubts in his heart. If the seventh prince was really interested, he would never fail to try to win him over. It’s not that he is narcissistic, but that is the fact. He was born tall, capable, and powerful, and getting his effect is equivalent to having the support of the entire Gu family. No prince who wins a prostitute can withstand this temptation.

So he felt that the Seventh Prince might be holding a big move.

As the New Year’s Eve was approaching, Gu Wenjing became very busy, because court officials had various benefits during the New Year, and these benefits had to be paid from the Ministry of Households, so he naturally couldn’t be spared.

After a hard day’s get off work, he went home from work. Gu Wenjing leaned on the couch, and Cheng Yuhua personally rubbed his shoulders, but the strength was a little bit weaker, and there was no feeling of rubbing.

Gu Wenjing took Cheng Yuhua and sat beside him with a smile, and said with a smile: “Where can I get tired by yourself, just ask Biyu to press it for me, you can rest well.”

Cheng Yuhua didn’t have to insist on coming on her own. After all, she is a daughter who has learned a few hand massage techniques and is not as professional as a maid, and she is not as strong as a maid.

Bi Yu, who was standing by, stepped forward to rub his shoulders and neck for Gu Wenjing. He sighed in his heart. This force was much more comfortable.

Cheng Yuhua sat next to Gu Wenjing and told him about the short stories of his parents. For example, what did she do today, which post was sent by her, and what happened to her son.

Gu Wenjing is not the kind of man who dislikes his wife and talks about trivial things at home, but listens very seriously. As a man working hard outside, he can’t take care of his family, but as long as he has this family in his heart, he will want to know the various circumstances of the family from his wife. Even trivial things will make him feel very warm.

And if you don’t want to listen to his wife nagging, a man who is short and annoying in his parents is nothing more than not having this home in his heart and not caring about the family. Otherwise, you won’t be indifferent or even bored.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Cheng Yuhua finished talking about the various interesting things about his son Gu Zhenghong, and started talking about the invitation he received today: “The Seven Princesses even posted a post to invite my mother and me to the plum feast, and also gave me a separate invitation. Husband, isn’t this… …”

The trouble with the second girl in the Hou Mansion was a bit big before. People in the Quan Hou Mansion knew that Ning Yuan Hou was dissatisfied with the second girl in marrying the fourth prince. Gu Wenjing also talked about it to Cheng Yuhua in private.

Cheng Yuhua is not the kind of back house woman who has no knowledge of the previous dynasty. Gu Wenjing told Cheng Yuhua about the firm and neutral attitude of the Hou Mansion and told her not to easily accept the favors of the wives who were closely related to the princes.

Therefore, Cheng Yuhua was very cautious in his wife’s diplomacy. He was usually alienated from the wives of officials who were in the prince’s family, and he was afraid to avoid the prince’s wife.

But Cheng Yuhua’s difficulty is that the Seventh Princess is the wife of the Seventh Prince, and she has a higher status than her, so she can’t refuse.

Gu Wenjing felt a sense of relief that the second boot finally landed. It turned out that the Seventh Prince was waiting for him here!

He guessed that it might be that the seventh prince was in the limelight recently because of the disaster relief, and he was stared at by many eyes, and the inconvenience was too big, which did not conform to his low-key dormant strategy. That’s why it was delayed until the end of the year before he asked his princess to post to Cheng Yuhua.

Gu Wenjing said: “If the Seventh Princess gave you a post, you can just go with your mother and take part in an ordinary plum feast. She must have invited other ladies and ladies. You and your mother stay with other people as much as possible. Together, don’t be alone. The Seventh Prince is a low-key person, and the Seventh Princess will not be able to treat you in full view.”

Cheng Yuhua nodded: “My concubine knows it.”

The plum feast hosted by the Seven Queens was seven days later.

The seven princesses were born in a pure and noble family, but the family members were decayed and had little influence. They belonged to the kind of high status but could not actually give much help to the seven princes. They were incomparable with the princesses of the other princes who had won the prince.

This is also the reason why other princes feel that the seventh princes are not competitive.

But the grandfather of the Seven Queens is a great scholar who is famous in the world, even if many years have passed away, he still has a reputation. Therefore, the Seven Queens still have a face in the Qingliu family. As long as there is no real interest involved, no one will not invite people to the banquet. To save face.

This time the plum banquet was held lively by the Seven Princesses.

Yuan’s and Cheng Yuhua’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went hand in hand, and returned home happily.

Gu Wenjing went home from get off work that day and asked Cheng Yuhua in private: “What special expressions can the Seven Princesses have?”

Cheng Yuhua shook her head slightly: “No, the Seventh Princess is only warm and kind to me, but on the surface she is quite warm to everyone.”

Gu Wenjing heaved a sigh of relief and said, “This is the end of this matter, so don’t think too much about it.”

Although I don’t know what medicine the Seventh Prince and the Seventh Princess are selling in the gourd, Gu Wenjing has decided not to take refuge in any one of the princes.
