"It's not necessary." Shen Yu didn't want to refuse, he could imagine the reaction of the ministers after Shang Jun took him to the main hall in a dignified manner.

Shen Yu felt that for the good hearts of those ministers, he still didn't join in the fun.

"What is Ayu worried about?" Shang Junlin rubbed the delicate skin of the gloomy neck, "Worried about the opposition from the courtiers? Don't worry, they won't say anything."

Shen Yu understood now. Shang Junlin said that he was going to take him to the palace test site. It was not a whim, but it had already been decided. He couldn't understand: "Why does Your Majesty have to take me there?"

"Did Ayu forget that there is another bet between us? Ayu doesn't want to see the result in person for the first time?" Shang Junlin coaxed in a low voice.

Shen Yu glanced at him sideways: "Of course I didn't forget, His Majesty has already made a bet ahead of time. It seems that there is not much difference between seeing and not seeing the results of the palace test."

Shen Yu thought of the scene that day, and his face became hot.

The beauty's eyes were shy, with a light pink on her face, and Shang Junlin was moved.

He got closer and dropped a kiss on the light pink: "I want to take Ayu with me, so Ayu should be with me, eh?"

"Your Majesty," Shen Yu moved to understand the reason, "since ancient times, the harem has not been allowed to engage in government, and it has been a preferential treatment for your Majesty to talk to me about matters in the court, and the palace exam is no better than others. I shouldn't even set foot there."

"Husband and wife are one body, Ayu and I should not distinguish between you and me. Anything I can do, and wherever I can go, Ayu can do and go."

Shang Junlin kissed Shen Yu's cheek intimately, "I know that Ayu has great talent, and being trapped in the harem is unfair to you. I can't accept it, because I hide Ayu's talent."

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Shang Junlin to say such a thing. His heart was sour and soft, and the unnoticeable sweetness was hidden in it and slowly rose up.

He opened his mouth, and his voice was inexplicably astringent: "I didn't care much about this in the first place. Your Majesty doesn't have to do this for me."

Shang Junlin hugged the man tightly in his arms: "It's just to satisfy my selfish desires, Ayu."

His Ayu was supposed to be an eagle soaring in the sky, but because of him, because of Zhenbeihou's stupidity, he was trapped in the harem, but he was selfish and unwilling to let go. His Ayu could only stand by his side , can only be his!

Shen Yu was so exhausted that he agreed.

Shang Junlin happily picked up the person and whispered: "Actually, it's boring to sit on it, and you can't do anything for more than an hour."

Shen Yu touched the man's drooping hair: "So Your Majesty wants me to accompany you to relieve your boredom?"

"Ayu can think so."

Shen Yu chuckled softly, holding the man's face with both hands: "Your Majesty don't need to feel that you have delayed me, entering the palace is my own choice, no one is forcing me, Your Majesty treats me so well, I am very happy, Your Majesty There is no need to think of letting me go to the front to show off my skills, I don't like it."

Shen Yu stared straight into Shang Junlin's eyes, as if to see his heart, and emphasized again: "What I like is unrestrained, not endless intrigue, Your Majesty."

By Shang Junlin's side, he felt peace, and whether he was selfish or cowardly, he was really tired of the feeling that he had to carefully calculate every step and every word in his previous life. He didn't plan to stay long when he first entered the palace. It was Shang Junlin who showed him another way of life.

——It turns out that someone is sheltering you from the wind and rain.

Shang Junlin's eyes were dark, and after a while, he suddenly smiled, "Ayu, even if you want to, I won't give you a chance to escape from me."

His Ah Yu, since he walked in front of him, never want to leave him!

The news that Shang Junlin was going to take Shen Yu to the palace exam was in advance and the ministers who were present also needed to pass the gas. Several of the ministers who knew Shang Junlin's temper well did not raise any objection, and calmly accepted the matter, while the others were dissatisfied. , Seeing that the Cheng and others did not speak, naturally they did not dare to speak.

Afterwards, someone was puzzled: "Even if your Majesty loves your noble lord, you should have a degree. What does it look like to bring someone into the palace examination room?"

"Yeah, why didn't the Prime Minister persuade His Majesty to let His Majesty come here?"

The Prime Minister tidied up his sleeves slowly, and answered without looking up: "Do you think Your Majesty is asking for our opinion when you talk to us?"

Several people thought about it, and their faces were a little ugly.

"Obviously you also know that, no, His Majesty has already made a decision in his heart. What role can our objection play in addition to increasing His Majesty's unhappiness?"

"But... Since ancient times, the harem has not been allowed to interfere in politics. On such an important occasion, shouldn't your lord need to avoid suspicion?"

The prime minister thought of the young man who proposed the new commercial law and the method of water control, and sighed in his heart, "Your Majesty does this naturally for His Majesty's reason, so I don't need to worry about it."

If it weren't for the confusion of the Marquis of Zhenbei who was trapped in the harem, the young man should have shined in the previous dynasty.

Several ministers saw that the Prime Minister was firmly on His Majesty's side, unable to do so, so they had to shut their mouths and let them go to His Majesty for this matter, they would never dare.

The students who failed the test have left the capital one after another, either looking for a job, or returning to their hometown to continue preparing for the test, and they will fight again in three years.

Jiang Huaiqing and He Chengyu, as the first few in the exam, after dealing with the gratifying people from all walks of life, they concentrated on retreating to prepare for the final palace exam.

Yingxinglou was also quiet for a while.

After the Minister of Industry obtained the permission of His Majesty, he sent someone to look for Yan Zheng to discuss the sponsorship.

Hearing what the person from the completion department said, Yan Zheng put away his fan: "This method is too beneficial to our businessmen. I didn't expect that I would be able to get such a big deal because of this."

"Young Master Yan doesn't need to say that, if it wasn't for Young Master Yan's kind heart, why would we still be worried." The visitor had a good impression of Yan Zheng, and he also brought a little intimacy when he spoke.

The atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic between the cups and the cups. Yan Zheng has been in business for many years, and a black mouth can be said to be white. The people in the Ministry of Industry have never seen such a posture. After a few words, a lot of news was caught.

However, Yan Zheng was used to being rigorous, and he only asked about trivial matters. Even if the person sobered up, he wouldn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.

"Is this 'sponsorship' statement also thought up by you adults?" Yan Zheng raised his eyes, and the waiter beside him was busy pouring wine for the two of them.

The wine is a good brew, with a refreshing taste and a long-lasting mellow fragrance, which is a good choice for welcoming guests.

The people in the Ministry of Industry were already drunk, and their minds were still sober. They knew what to say and what not to say. They lowered their voices and reminded: "There may be a big move above, Mr. Yan must seize the opportunity."

When he got the news he wanted, Yan Zheng accepted it as soon as he saw it, and changed the topic naturally.

Seeing that he stopped interfering, the people in the Ministry of Industry were relieved, and they became more and more satisfied.

Late at night, Yan Zheng sent someone to send the people from the Ministry of Industry away.

"Young master, let's go in." The servant brought the cloak over and put it on Yan Zheng.

"This trip to the capital is the right one." Yan Zheng chuckled.

The little servant didn't know why: "What is the son talking about?"

"I'm afraid those people never thought of it. They thought they were driving me out, but they gave me a road to the sky instead. Compared with what they are about to get, what is the thing they seem to be guarding?"

If it is really a blessing and a curse, I thought that I still need to spend a lot of thought. With the opportunity to send it to my door, the time to achieve the goal will be greatly shortened.

Yan Zheng didn't sleep all night, he readjusted his plan, and he had to take good control of the help from heaven.

"Young Master," the servant came in with the hot porridge, "I went to inquire about the people you asked me to inquire about. It's very strange, and I couldn't find any news about them."

After the sad parting with Shang Junlin that day, Yan Zheng asked people to inquire about the two, not what he wanted to do, but simply wanted to get acquainted. There are too few people who speak extraordinary, looks and perfectly fit his aesthetics, not to mention other, even if they can make friends.

One of the business rules of conduct: make friends.

"Oh?" Yan Zheng stopped writing, "Can't find out? Where is the other family?"

"The slave has asked carefully, and the other family should be Lord Fang and his family. As for the two that the son is looking for, I really can't find any clues."

"I see. You withdraw the person, don't look for it, and it will not be the case in the future."

Mr. Fang, the celebrity in front of His Majesty, Yan Zheng paid attention to that day. Although there was a cover up, the respect of Mr. Fang to the two he was looking for in his words and deeds did not seem to be a fake. How many can there be?

Yan Zheng smiled, so ah, he has no luck anymore.

Yan Zheng's actions could not be concealed from Long Wei. Soon, Shang Junlin got the news, but the palace examination was about to start, and this matter could only be dealt with later.

Shen Yu got up early and changed into more solemn clothes than usual. Shang Junlin was still wearing the emperor's uniform, and the black background and gold patterns showed the emperor's majesty.

With no cover or screen, Shang Junlin held the gloomy hand and sat on the high seat.

The ministers had been informed in advance, and when they saw the two together, they were ready to start.

After the candidates bowed their heads, they took their seats one by one.

Under the rules of not being able to look directly at Sheng Yan, everyone dared to openly look up.

The palace exam is not only about knowledge, but also about psychological endurance. Sitting on the top, the students below can see the reactions of the students.

Some people were obviously nervous. It should be said that most of them were nervous. Shen Yu looked around, He Chengyu and Jiang Huaiqing were in good condition, and they wrote their answer sheets in an orderly manner. The other one was Fang Jiayi.

Fang Jiayi was wearing uniform student clothes, her back was straight, and she was concentrating on the answer sheet in front of her.

Time passed slowly, and finally, it was time.

The examinee stopped writing in response, and a special person stepped forward to collect the answer sheet. Everything was about to come to an end, and those who did not perform well have turned pale.

The candidates entered the side hall and waited, and the ministers picked up the answer sheets and read them. If there were no exceptions, the new blood of the imperial court would be born here.

After sitting for more than an hour, Shen Yu stood up and moved his hands and feet. When he thought that the minister had just watched him several times before he stopped talking, Shen Yu felt happy.

"How does Ayu feel?" Shang Junlin hugged people down the steps.

"Your Majesty is right, it's been a tough time for more than an hour." Can't make big moves or talk, Shen Yu felt that he shouldn't have relented and promised Shang Junlin in the first place.

but……

"Your Majesty, do you think Jiang Huaiqing will be surprised when they see us?"
