After being expelled from the palace, she returned with her cub and amazed the whole city

Before he finished speaking, he heard Eunuch Ma reporting from outside, "Your Majesty, it's time for lunch."

Jiang Shuyue had no choice but to follow Xiao Jingzhao to the other side of the imperial study.

The dining table in the imperial study is not big, so it can be seen that Xiao Jingzhao often eats here.

As soon as the two of them sat down, the food was delivered like water.

The maids carried trays with exquisite utensils.

After placing the dishes, Eunuch Ma waved his hand, and the leading maid placed the dishes on the tray on the table.

The palace maid announced the name of each dish she served, and she served a total of twenty-eight dishes and one soup.

As the palace maid opened the exquisite lid, the alluring fragrance suddenly filled the room.

Eunuch Ma took out the silver needle and prepared to test the dishes. Jiang Shuyue smiled and said, "Not every poison can be detected with a silver needle."

"Then, I'll try another way."

Just when Jiang Shuyue was looking forward to seeing what Eunuch Ma would bring out something better to try.

Eunuch Ma turned around and took a plate and a pair of chopsticks. Starting from the dish closest to the emperor's face, he began to put a small piece into his plate, taking only a small piece of each dish.

Jiang Shuyue looked at Xiao Jingzhao.

Xiao Jingzhao immediately understood: "Does Yueniang have any better solution?"

"Your Majesty, there is no way. If someone puts chronic poison in the food, it will be useless to try it."

Jiang Shuyue still has nothing to say. Shouldn't good food be eaten while it's hot? Many dishes lose their flavor when they are cold.

By the time the eunuch who was trying the dishes finished eating, the hot dishes on the table were all cold. Especially in winter, eating such meals often is not good for the stomach.

When Eunuch Ma heard that his method of testing vegetables didn't work, he held a mouthful of vegetables in his mouth and looked at Xiao Jingzhao.

Xiao Jingzhao waved his hand and said, "Please step aside. There will be no need to test the dishes in the future. The purchasing and kitchen staff will only need to keep a close eye on them."

Jiang Shuyue also happened to dislike being served while eating, so the two of them enjoyed their meal in a rather formal manner.

The dishes prepared by the imperial chef are really exquisite, and every dish is delicious and delicious.

Xiao Jingzhao picked up the serving chopsticks and helped Jiang Shuyue prepare the dishes several times.

Jiang Shuyue didn't have a big appetite, so she tasted a little of every dish and was full after just one bowl of soup.

Jiang Shuyue has become accustomed to the table manners here, and she doesn't speak when she eats or sleeps.

Xiao Jingzhao almost didn't talk about anything serious during the meal except for occasionally saying a word when picking up food for her.

After putting down the bowls and chopsticks, Jiang Shuyue picked up the handkerchief and pressed her lips.

He looked at Xiao Jing with doubtful eyes, "Does the Emperor really have anything else to say?"

"Well, of course, I want to discuss with you whether it is inconvenient to live in Taiyuan College all year round, and whether you should bring him to live in Cining Palace."

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "I understand that both the Queen Mother and the Princess are thinking about Sui Sui, but they will let him stay in the palace every few days. The rest of the time, I will let him stay at Su Jin's place."

Xiao Jingzhao looked resentful, "Can't you spend some time with me to accompany him?"

"The emperor is busy with government affairs, and I'm afraid he will disturb you. If the emperor has free time, he can occasionally go to Su Jin's courtyard to sit."

Jiang Shuyue didn't care whether the emperor thought too much, she just wanted Xiao Jingzhao to have more contact with Su Jin.

Xiao Jingzhao really didn't think too deeply about it, and nodded: "That's fine, Su Jin's residence is not far from the palace gate."

Jiang Shuyue said goodbye and left the palace, Xiao Jingzhao asked Ma Eunuch to send a sedan and chariot to see her off.

Watching Jiang Shuyue leave the palace gate, Eunuch Ma said to the guards at the palace gate: "No matter when the girl enters the palace, she is not allowed to stop her."

Then he said to the eunuch in charge of driving the sedan chair: "Be more careful in the future, and don't make the girl tired next time."

The eunuchs and guards respectfully accepted orders.

After Eunuch Ma left, the guard asked the eunuch: "Who is the girl?"

The eunuch shook his head and said, "I don't know, but the person who can send the steward to the gate of the palace is definitely not an ordinary woman."

…

The next morning, Cangyun sent Suisui, Su Nan and Yaozu to Taiyuan College for interviews.

The man in charge of the interview lowered his head and flipped through the booklet in his hand to check whether the name on it was true to prevent anyone from impersonating him.

The real great bachelor happened to be walking this way.

Students who have just entered the school will be divided into classes according to their age. Students of the same age will take a unified examination after admission and be divided into classes based on their scores.

The real bachelor came over now to see how the student interviews were going so that he could have a good idea of ​​whether he could get into the A-class class.

Seeing Suisui waiting in line, he couldn't help but stop.

Suddenly he remembered what his grandson said to him in the study last night.

"Grandpa, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Taiyuan University, so be cautious in everything. The true identities of some students are not what we see on the surface."

Looking at his calm grandson, the real great scholar broke the casserole and asked the truth for the first time.

Zhen Jingxiu expressed his suspicions. During the palace examination, he deliberately took a bold look at Long Yan.

That day, the emperor was sitting in a high place, with twelve strands hanging from the crown on his head dangling in front of the dragon's face, making him unable to see clearly.

The real bachelor had seen the emperor up close in the royal study.

Thinking about what his grandson had said, his eyes fell on Suisui's sculpted face.

Two figures overlapped in my mind.

They look so much like each other. If Suisui removed the bangs from her forehead, she would be carved from the same mold.

It's just that one is mature and old, and the other is innocent. If he didn't deliberately compare, he really wouldn't associate two completely unrelated people together.

The real great bachelor was so shocked that he froze on the spot. After a moment, he walked up quickly.

"Sui Sui, don't wait in line."

"Real grandpa?" Sui Sui shouted as usual.

"Good boy, come here quickly. From now on, just call me Zhenlao."

Under everyone's puzzled gaze, Sui Sui was listed without an interview.

"Xiao Sui'an."

Looking at the surname on the roster, Zhen Daxueshi believed his grandson's guess even more.

In the past, in Zhen's private school, everyone used to call Sui Sui, and even Zhen Jingxiu thought Sui Sui's surname was Jiang.

Seeing that Su Nan and Yao Zu were following Sui Sui closely, Zhen Daxueshi understood what he meant, asked two questions casually, and let them in.

"Who is Su Jin to you?" Zhen Daxueshi looked at Su Nan and asked.

Su Nan bowed and said, "Reply to Zhen Lao, I am Su Jin's younger brother."

Zhen Daxueshi then said to the three people, "Come with me. We will be divided into classes tomorrow. I will arrange accommodation for you first."

Zhen Daxueshi took the three people to a courtyard. The courtyard here was different from the houses. Rows of side rooms were built side by side, and there was a large garden in the middle.

Perhaps because they were worried that the scholars would fall into the water while playing, there was no pool in the whole courtyard.

He led the three people to a room with a total of four beds.

The real scholar told the three of them where to get water to wash and where to eat.

Then he glanced around the room and said, "All the utensils are here. If you need anything, tell the manager."

After the real scholar left, Su Jin wondered, "Didn't they say that we would be divided into houses according to age?"

"Don't think about it, second uncle. The real master said that we can get a place, and Uncle Cang Yun is still waiting outside. Go and tell him, and send a message to mother that we will not go home today."

At this time, two handsome scholars were looking for something outside the courtyard.
