Completely whimsical, it sounds almost impossible.

However, people's fate is in their own hands. If you don't fight for it, you will never get it, and you don't know what will be determined by such a fight.

Therefore, although Xue Tingzhi was forced to bow his head and forced him to learn the attitude of seeking others, but if those interests were put aside, she actually liked him very much.

Just because of this mood.

If she was Xue Tingzhi, she would definitely make the same decision.

An inexplicable smile appeared on his lips. Lu Jinxi looked at the Royal Garden at the moment, and thought for a while, and finally chose to return to the crowd.

She really doesn't fit in.

But sometimes, she didn't want others to think she was too out of place to be approachable.

In front of it is a small stone pavilion.

The concubines and concubines who were tired of walking and wanted to rest, all rested there, and some people sat on the edge of the small lake and whispered.

When Lu Jinxi walked over, Wei Yi was in the booth.

It was probably because she was in the pavilion, so few people dared to go in and rest with her. Only the empress had a distinguished status and sat with her.

The surroundings seemed very quiet.

The voices of the ladies and ladies who were admiring the scenery in front of them all sounded a little distant here.

After thinking about it, Lu Jinxi didn't go in.

Although this virtuous concubine is strange to her, she is a smart person after all, and she has a faint taste of moodiness and anger. If there is nothing wrong, it is better not to provoke it easily.

What's more, they are not all the way, and it is impossible for them to come together.

Turning her footsteps, she passed by the stone pavilion with no difference at all, and walked towards the location of the Taishi's wife Xiao Tang and Taifu's wife Dong in the corner of the imperial garden.

Several ladies have gathered here, and it is quite lively to watch.

Because of the birthday banquet at the Grand Master's Mansion, Mrs. Tang had a good impression of Lu Jinxi, and her father, Lu Jiuling, was on good terms with the old master Gu, and he took the initiative to greet her when he saw her.

Lu Jinxi has a mature temperament. If he doesn't deal with it, he can manage it with a little thought, and he will blend in with everyone in a few words.

But when others look at her, they won't think she's very powerful.

Just like water that takes shape, everything is silent and there is no trace.

Even Wei Yi, who was watching from a distance in the pavilion, didn't find any clues. He just assumed that Tang Shi and others took care of her and always gave her a call. It still looked as gentle and mediocre as before.

Can't see anything surprising.

On the contrary, Mrs. Hou and Miss Xie Taoling of Kangshun Hou's mansion, who had been "rewarded" by her before, looked trembling, and no one dared to take care of them wherever they went.

The mother and daughter stood pitifully in the corner, looking miserable.

It's a pity that Wei Yi has never had any sympathy. After looking around, she was even inexplicably happy.

How can someone like Gu Juefei look up to Xie Taoling?

She felt that she was helping Xie Taoling.

I hope that the people from the Marquis of Kangshun's mansion can see what kind of cruel and heartless monster that legendary "Eldest Master Gu" is.

Wei Yi slowly retracted her gaze, took a sip of tea, and did not speak to the queen beside her.

The sun was gradually sloping westward.

The good sunshine in the spring is still slowly approaching. Before the cold wind blows, there is news from the front palace Qing'an Emperor Xiao Che that he wants to give a banquet.

So here in the harem, everyone did not leave.

The scenery was almost finished, and two more poetry sessions were held before returning to the Rouyi Hall, sat down and used the dinner party, and worshipped the Queen again, and this was the end.

When it was time to leave, someone came to the front hall.

It was the news that Lu Jinxi was waiting for.

The one who passed the message was a little eunuch who she was not familiar with, who only lowered his head and lowered his voice: "The banquet in the front hall is over, and the eldest princess has already told the emperor what you said. I hope you will stay for a while and go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor wants to invite you to see him."

The emperor summoned?

Lu Jinxi's eyelids jumped immediately, only to think that the result was too unexpected. Even if Xue Kuang's past achievements were high, and Lu's status was special, it wouldn't make sense to summon a courtier, right?

She wanted to ask more, but the little eunuch shook her head and said, "The emperor only said that he wanted to summon you, but he didn't say why he was summoned. The eldest princess is also there, you should hurry up."

Princess Yongning is still there...

With such an eldest princess who can speak in court, nothing should happen, right?

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Lu Jinxi just pressed his slightly startled heart down again, and calmly said, "If that's the case, please ask the father-in-law to lead the way."

The little eunuch is also the one who waits on the imperial front.

What to say and what not to say is still clear in my heart.

On the way, he didn't talk to Lu Jinxi for a single word, he just led the way in front of him with his head sullen.

The Taiji Hall is only used when there is a grand ceremony or a big rise. The daily meeting of ministers is either in the South Study Room or in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

A gilded plaque hangs high above it.

It was the first time that Lu Jinxi came to this kind of place. Even though he was cautious, he didn't raise his head to take a look even if he had the guts.

Because of her standing at the end of the steps outside the hall, the little eunuch bowed in and announced, "Report to the emperor, the general's wife is here."

"Xuan."

Probably because people were in the hall at the moment, the voice was clearer than when he was in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but there was also an erratic emptiness.

Lu Jinxi walked in.

After entering the hall, walked forward for about ten steps, and could see the steps with the imperial bill with downcast eyes, so stopped and bowed down.

"The courtiers meet the emperor."

"Flat body."

After all, it was a peace ceremony. Xiao Che, who didn't like alcohol, also drank a lot. At this moment, he was a little drunk. The person was sitting behind the imperial desk, and had changed into a dark purple uniform embroidered with the dragon's secret pattern, and it was rare to relax a little.

"The eldest princess has already told me, I heard that Madam wants the eldest son of your palace to take the imperial examination?"

Xiao Che shouted "flat body", only then did Lu Jinxi get up.

After all, the eldest princess Yongning has different identities. She was given a seat by Xiao Che, and she sat on the side at this moment. When Xiao Che spoke, she didn't interrupt, just looked at Lu Jinxi.

Lu Jinxi glanced at her, and then took the opportunity to get up to look at Xiao Che again.

When the child is just over today, he still looks very young. Although his face is not very outstanding, there is a natural majesty all over his body, and he does not appear to be very mediocre.

only……

He looked at her with a strange look in his eyes.

It seems to be a little curious, but also a little scrutiny, and a little more thoughtful.

The imperial examination system was related to the selection and appointment of the imperial court. Most of the literati in the imperial court believed in "not my race, their hearts must be different." I also knew that if Xue Tingzhi's affairs were brought out, it would cause a great sensation.

Not to mention Lu Jinxi, even the emperor himself may be scolded bloody.

The question he asked was not so easy to answer.

As Lu Jinxi's thoughts turned, he had already lowered his eyes, and his posture showed a very confusing sense of obedience, and his voice was slightly lowered, giving the illusion of obedience.

"A courtier and a woman are a woman, and they are the benevolence of women."

"Although Xue Tingzhi is of an alien blood, he has been raised by the general's side since he was a child. After entering the government, he is very sensible. He is diligent and inquisitive, and has no barbarian habits. A man must have a place to stand in the world. He is born with diseases and is not good. Dancing with knives and spears, I can’t carry on the general’s will to protect the family and the country; and now I am negotiating peace with the Xiongnu, the courtier thinks that the border should be peaceful and there is no war to fight.”
