Chapter 781: The Hunter Lady is the Savior of the Powerful Official 42
One and a half months passed in a flash. Enke was scheduled to arrive in three months, so they still had a month and a half left when they arrived in the capital.
Xiao Yunzhou had bought houses in the capital several times in Miaomiao's name before, but in the end they decided to live in a house in the suburbs of Beijing.
It's quieter there and more low-key.
As soon as Miaomiao arrived at this house that was registered in her name, she liked it very much. The walls of the house were covered with green ivy, and there was a plaque with the words "Ling Mansion" hanging on the lintel.
After entering, it was different from other courtyards. It seemed to have been redecorated, and their bedrooms were only separated by a wall.
However, there are quite a few paintings displayed lavishly on the wall in the middle. According to Xiao Yunzhou, each of these paintings is worth a lot of money, and it would be a good deal if you buy them.
In fact, only Xiao Yunzhou himself knew that these paintings were indeed very expensive, but they were bought to cover up the more than ten holes that were chiseled in the wall, so that he could hear the movements in Miaomiao's room every night and hear her sleeping breathing.
When the Third Prince received the news, he took advantage of the night and parked his entourage in a simple carriage at the end of the alley.
After being brought into the house by the servants, he saw that his resourceful brother Xiao Yunzhou was actually peeling an apple for his girl. When he saw him coming, she clicked her tongue as if in disgust.
It is true that things smell better when they are far away than when they are close. When they first met, they hugged each other and cried. Now he came to see her secretly, and she looked dissatisfied as if he disturbed her time with the girl.
Miaomiao bowed to the Third Prince and went back to her room to eat an apple.
"Yun Zhou, I heard that this bastard of the Su family is running rampant in the Imperial College, and..."
There was urgency in his words. There was nothing he could do. He was not that smart. Without Xiao Yunzhou, it would not be easy for him to deal with his rotten brother.
"Brother Jiayu, you will look more handsome in brown clothes from now on. Come and sit down."
Xiao Yunzhou slowly pushed the fruit plate over, and the tip of the knife continued to draw circles neatly on the fruit peel.
Compared to other things, he felt more uneasy because the Third Prince wore the dark clothes that Miaomiao liked, so he had to remind the Third Prince, who already had dark skin, to remember to wear brown.
Because Miaomiao once said that brown was the color she couldn't accept most when it came to men's clothes. It looked like a pile of dried-up...
"Don't worry, Brother Jiayu, just lend me a few secret guards, everything is under control.
Some habits should be changed, otherwise Dachen will be finished.
However, His Majesty should be very satisfied that you did not compete for the imperial examination this time. It is a good thing for us that it was finally handed over to the Crown Prince for supervision.
One of the judges this time is the Su family, the prince's concubine's family."
Xiao Yunzhou slowly cut the fruit into pieces and placed them on the plate. He then stood up and washed his hands before sitting down again.
The two chatted for a few more hours until midnight, when Miaomiao went back to sleep for a nap, when they heard the sound of a door opening and closing in the next room.
Miaomiao felt vaguely that the house looked very solid, but why did the sound sound so clear, as if there was no obstruction at all.
However, this was just my thought before I went back to sleep, and when I woke up I had completely forgotten everything.
On the afternoon of the fifth day before the Enke exam, there was a huge uproar in the Zhuangyuan Building in the capital. The cause was nothing more than a quarrel between students from both sides over a private room.
Then, somehow, it turned into a war of words between the two sides...
Some people are already arrogant and have a natural sense of superiority towards outsiders.
Once he starts cursing, he won't even remember what he said.
Su Mingzhe only knew that after he said certain words, the student opposite him blushed, looked like he was going to fight him to the death, and then started shouting loudly.
"The imperial examination is based on real ability. How can you be so presumptuous?"
The few playboys who came with Su Mingzhe were not happy. They were just chatting after drinking, but now they were humiliated by others.
"Outrageous? We said you were stepping stones, and you are stepping stones.
Do you know who he is? How can you country bumpkins slander the son of the presiding judge?
Right, Mingzhe, show them something powerful."
After the few people in the playboy group looked at each other, they began to fan the flames at Su Mingzhe. As a result, Su Mingzhe, who originally felt that he had done something wrong, suddenly became bolder.
"See? My father is the examiner this time, and my sister is the prince's concubine. What can you compare with me? Whoever I want to be selected will be selected!!"
But Su Mingzhe just wanted to say a few words and leave. Unexpectedly, there seemed to be quite a few students in Zhuangyuan Building today. As soon as he finished speaking, a clear voice came from downstairs.
"In broad daylight, you dare to insult the saints and even slander the royal family with this? Are you courting death?!"
Xiao Yunzhou stood in front of the steps with his hands behind his back, his green hair lifted by the wind, but his eyes were cold.
Miaomiao also lit some fire in the crowd. It was an easy job. Of course, even if she didn't light the fire, the out-of-town students in the Zhuangyuan Building would have been very excited.
When Su Mingzhe saw who was speaking, he was stunned at first, and then he sneered.
What he hated most was the tone in which others lectured him. He even scolded the Gao family. Apart from the prince and His Majesty, he was not afraid of anyone. He was the only child of the Su family!
"Where did this uneducated scholar come from? He has a good face and dares to meddle in my affairs?"
Xiao Yunzhou just looked at him coldly, these words were enough.
You know, it is not easy to set up such a situation and make certain people say these words according to his settings, and then have them heard by the people who need to hear them, but now, he has succeeded.
Since ancient times, favoritism and corruption have been serious crimes. Even the prince is not immune, right?
