After the court meeting was over, Su Moxiu returned home with his father.

He was supposed to stay in the palace and serve in the imperial study, but probably what happened yesterday made Emperor Chengde too embarrassed, Emperor Chengde ordered him to go to the Ministry of Justice early this morning.

It is a good thing to be able to enter one of the six departments at a young age, but no matter how good the punishment department is, it is not as good as staying with his majesty.

Probably because of this, Su Moxiu was a little absent-minded today.

Su Gu, the present prime minister, was sixty years old this year.

In his early years, he devoted himself to his studies until he was 25 years old before he married his wife, who was only fifteen years old at the time.

He devoted himself to his career so he wasn’t interested in women. Apart from his wife, he only had one concubine in the backyard, but most of his children were born to his main wife.

The concubine only gave birth to a concubine son who was three years older than Su Moxiu, but his wife gave birth to three sons and two daughters for him.

Su Moxiu is his youngest son, this child was sickly when he was born, so he paid more attention to him. However, later this child grew healthier and smarter, and he loved this child even more.

It wasn’t until Su Moxiu was five years old that his wife became pregnant again and gave birth to a daughter, so his most beloved child turned from his son Su Moxiu to his daughter.

However, while he loves his youngest daughter, he will not place high hopes on her, he has great expectations for Su Moxiu and his three older brothers.

Now, his eldest son and second son are both officials in the court, and his third son from the concubine has also become a Juren.

Plus the most outstanding Su Moxiu…He is the most envied in the court now.

No other official is like him, his sons are all promising!

And among the four sons, Su Moxiu is undoubtedly the one he is most optimistic about.

His other three sons are not as intelligent as Su Moxiu!

Seeing that Su Moxiu seemed a little unhappy at this moment, Su Gu said: “Ziyan, it is a good thing that you left the Imperial Study. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying the tiger, not to mention that the princes now have their own thoughts…”

Su Moxiu’s courtesy name is Ziyan.

As for the matter between the princes…

The crown prince is a good person, but he has too little experience, and with the group around him who are hindering him, he seems mediocre.

This undoubtedly made the other princes have thoughts and start to fight openly and secretly.

His majesty should have seen it, but he probably didn’t want to admit it, so he just pretended not to know, but they already knew it all.

Su Gu didn’t want to get involved in this kind of thing, but he had to get involved yesterday, and even heard some things that shouldn’t be heard.

He was in fear all night yesterday, but fortunately his majesty didn’t intend to pursue it.

And today his son left the imperial study…he thought it was a good thing.

“Father, I know.” Su Moxiu said.

“It’s good that you know. You were on duty in the imperial study before, so you didn’t have time to attend literary and poetry meetings. In the future, if you have time, you can visit your relatives more. Your marriage should also be taken care of. You can visit my students and old friends one by one…”

Su Gu has been an official for thirty-five years, all the way to being a prime minister. Now he has disciples all over the world, so he has made friends all over the court.

Su Moxiu was young and too busy before, so he didn’t let him know too many people, but now he plans to take Su Moxiu around so that Su Moxiu can take over his connections.

With these connections, Su Moxiu will be able to walk more steadily in the court in the future!

Su Moxiu said, “Father, I don’t want to get married yet.”

“You are so old, you still don’t want to get married?” Su Gu frowned.

Su Moxiu said: “Father, I want to focus on my career first, then get married later like you.”

Su Gu himself got married late, so he has never rushed his sons to get married.

He has always felt that these children can wait until their careers are successful before starting a family.

Like Su Moxiu, before he won first place in the imperial exam, he never had the thought to marry him, even if he did…Because Su Moxiu hasn’t come of age yet, he wasn’t in a hurry.

He just told Su Moxiu to read more and learn more and put his mind on his career.

But now that Su Moxiu has come of age and entered the Ministry of Punishment, in his opinion, it’s time to start a family.

“You are not young anymore.”

“Father, wait until I get familiar with the Ministry of Justice.” Su Moxiu said.

“Alright,” Su Gu agreed, and then thought of something, “Ziyan, there is one very important thing…Now that the battle between the princes is intensifying, you must not intervene.”

“Yes, father.” Su Moxiu agreed, then suddenly remembered the fifth prince.

Su Gu continued: “It’s good that we stand by his majesty’s side wholeheartedly! None of those princes can be touched!”

Su Moxiu also understood this.

His father is the head of the ministers, it can be said that whoever can get his support and whoever is fighting for that position will have their chance greatly increase.

But their Su family is already stable, so there is no need to have the merit of following the dragon.

Su Moxiu responded and couldn’t help asking: “Father, the fifth prince…”

When mentioning the Fifth Prince, Su Gu’s face was solemn: “The Fifth Prince is unfathomable!”

“Father?”

Su Gu asked, “What do you think of what happened yesterday?”

Su Moxiu said: “The fifth prince was wronged by his majesty…”

“You think he was wronged, but I don’t think so! Even if he’s really wronged…” Su Gu stroked his beard, “He made a very good move by retreating in this step!”

Su Moxiu was startled.

Su Gu said: “In court today, I see that the crown prince and his majesty are not happy with the second prince and the third prince…The fifth prince must have cleared himself! What he did yesterday is very different from what he used to do in the past. He seemed insane, in fact, great intelligence may appear to be stupidity. He aroused his majesty’s father and son love making him stand in an invincible position.”

“The fifth prince made such a poisonous oath…”

“Some people don’t take the oath seriously,” Su Gu said, “How many heroes throughout the ages believe in retribution from ghosts and gods?”

Su Gu and Su Moxiu talked a lot.

Su Gu has carefully observed several princes for a long time, so he also has some understanding of the current empress.

He felt that whether it was the fifth prince or the current empress, they were not simple.

The fifth prince was able to swear such a poisonous oath with his mouth yesterday, which made him feel that this person is not easy to get along with.

Fortunately, they have nothing to do with the fifth prince, and they don’t need to contact him.

Talking about it, Su Gu suddenly said: “Your marriage still has to be considered, and your sister’s marriage is the same. The empress hinted at your mother before that she wanted your sister to be the fifth prince’s consort. This is absolutely impossible.”

Su Moxiu’s heart skipped a beat, but he didn’t show it at all: “The empress wants the fifth prince to marry little sister?”

“Otherwise, do you think that the fifth prince has never been married because he likes men?” Su Gu asked, “Even if he really likes men…he can also marry your sister. But I don’t want your sister to fall into the fire pit.”

Su Gu had a long talk with his youngest son, and then let his youngest son leave.

Su Moxiu went back to his room, covering his forehead, feeling dizzy.

After hearing the fifth prince say that he likes men yesterday…Last night, he actually dreamed that he and the fifth prince were spending a spring evening together.

He really…has no sense of honor or shame.

And, too naive.

Taking a deep breath, Su Moxiu got up, went to his father’s study, and found the law book to copy.

Since he entered the Ministry of Justice, he must be proficient in the law.

Thinking of this, Su Moxiu began to copy seriously, while copying, he also recited silently.

He didn’t think about the fifth prince when he had something to do.

It’s just that this law is much more difficult to memorize than the Four Books and Five Classics, especially those numbers…Su Moxiu has been reciting and writing a few times silently this day, so he didn’t go to sleep until late at night.

Then, at night, he actually had another dream. In the dream, the fifth prince was extremely gentle and caring towards him. The two of them still…

Waking up in the morning, Su Moxiu’s face was red at first with his heart beating faster. After a while, his face gradually turned pale, and the heat on his body suddenly dropped.

A gust of wind blew, he shivered in the summer.

Yan Jingze didn’t know about the Su family matter.

He lay in the palace for a whole day, received a full range of examinations by imperial physician Li, then received a bunch of tonic from Emperor Chengde, and only got to leave the palace at night.

When he returned to his mansion, he immediately asked the kitchen to deliver the food from the original owner’s memory, then he lay down to sleep after he was full.

This time, he slept very well, but after he was done sleeping…he suddenly missed Su Moxiu again.

Su Moxiu is a little different to him.

This kind of difference was something he had only felt in this life…Yan Jingze thought about it, then finally decided that when Su Moxiu died, he would take his soul away.

Now that he has decided to take Su Moxiu’s soul away…Maybe he can get acquainted with Su Moxiu first?

Of course, he was not in a hurry, he still has nearly eighty years to get to know Su Moxiu.

Yan Jingze ate a hearty breakfast, lay down again, then repaired the world by the way.

Repairing and repairing…For some reason, he suddenly felt a little bored.

It’s reasonable to live comfortably without worrying about food and drink, and to mend the world is the life he has always wanted to live the most, but he suddenly doesn’t want to live like this.

A few years is enough to repair this world, but he has to stay here for 80 years. If the world is repaired early, wouldn’t there be nothing to do?

Yan Jingze sat up, changed into new clothes, then finally decided to go for a walk.

Looking at the original owner’s memory, there are also many delicious foods outside.

Yan Jingze went out and chose a restaurant for lunch.

A few months ago, the capital had just held the imperial examination. Now, many of the candidates who failed the examination have returned to their hometowns, but some of them stayed in the capital, waiting for the examination three years later.

Before the imperial examination, the original owner concealed his identity and wandered among the jurens, meeting many people. Today, when he was eating in a restaurant, someone he knew came over to greet him.

Yan JingZe looked at him, only to find that he was a tall and majestic juren who looked different from an ordinary scholar.

Well, the original owner liked that.

There was nothing to do, so Yan Jingze chatted with him. Of course, mainly the other party was talking while he listened.

Although he has the original owner’s memory, he feels that he should learn how to communicate with others too.

It seems that it is quite simple.

Su Moxiu went to the Ministry of Justice to confirm his duty today, and since he was not on duty yet, he went home early.

When he passed by the restaurant, he happened to see this scene.
