Chapter 473 Uncooperative

On the flower platform of the Imperial Garden, Sheng Yuan, Anyu and Lu Sheng were sitting in a row, looking up and sighing.

Cen Sanfu's actions gave them a clearer understanding of the ability to bend and stretch.

"There are so many shameless people in the world, why can't I be counted among them?" Even the calmest Lu Sheng couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing this, Sheng Yuan couldn't help but look sideways: "Brother Sheng, it turns out you still have this pursuit!"

Lu Sheng looked at the two of them, dangling their calves as if nothing happened, and suddenly felt that he had grown up too fast.

Anyu saw him looking gloomy and thought it was because he was worried that they had offended the current court elder and someone would stumble him in his career in the future, so he comforted him and said, "Don't worry. When we enter the Hanlin Academy, this person will not be able to tell."

He has already retreated, and we have never really had any grudge against him. If he still wants to leave the few connections he has to his descendants, he will definitely not be able to take care of us."

"..." Lu Sheng saw how interested he was in persuading him, and for a moment he didn't know whether to tell him that he was overthinking, or simply accept it.

Seeing him in trouble, Sheng Yuan couldn't help but giggle: "Brother Yu, you are thinking too much. Brother Sheng, like you, has a title, so why do you care about official positions? What's more, he is determined to join the army, and Cen Sanfu

No matter how careful you are, you can't control the army!"

In the three dynasties of Yan, Chen, and Chu, the cabinet was never allowed to intervene in specific military affairs and personnel changes. These were directly linked to the Minister of War, who was then directly responsible to the emperor.

Anyu asked Sheng Yuan to remind him like this, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He scratched his head and blushed, and laughed at Lu Sheng: "I just forgot!"

Lu Sheng didn't care about such a trivial matter and waved his hand.

They mentioned Cen Minzhou here, and Cen Minzhou went back to the North Hall of the Cabinet Office to sit around.

It was his turn to take a break today, but he suddenly appeared here, and everyone was surprised.

Cen Minzhou knew that if he didn't say anything now, his colleagues would hear about it later, so he shook his head with a wry smile and recounted the absurd things that happened in the morning.

Hearing this, the current chief minister Yan Yuan opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Yuanhang has always been gentle, why are you so worried about those three children now?"

Cen Minzhou sighed: "Xia Guan has been agitated recently. I just had a few words with Zhuo Jing. When I went out, I saw three students in college uniforms wandering around. I thought it was some student playing truant, so I said a few more words...

When I came, I was so dim-sighted that I didn't recognize these three people."

Gu Chengyun, the second assistant, smiled slightly as he listened: "Master Cen cherishes talents, but his method is a bit too rough... Ask them clearly their names and surnames, see clearly the badges on their academy uniforms, and remember their ages, appearance, and height; then people will be

Go to their academy to inform them, and someone will change their names and teach them the right things, so why bother taking action yourself?"

Cen Minzhou smiled apologetically: "It's true that I didn't think carefully."

Yan Yuan closed the memorial and looked up at him with a smile: "Since the emperor doesn't care about it, don't pay too much attention to the voyage. If you don't take a bath today, you'd better go back and rest early."

Cen Minzhou didn't refute, just said slowly and replied.

They, the superior officials, were talking lively, and the co-organizers who were listening below couldn't help but look at each other.

They all looked forward to getting off duty soon so that they could inquire about Cen Sanfu's excitement.

…

Cen Minzhou walked out of the imperial city with an increasingly bitter taste in his mouth.

He glanced in the direction of Cen Mansion and turned back with some resistance.

"Lord Cen!"

Hearing this call, Cen Minzhou trembled in excitement.

He deliberately turned a deaf ear, but the other party ran very fast. Before he could get rid of him, the other party had already stopped in front of him: "Lord Cen, please stay!"

"Lord Guan." Cen Minzhou looked at Guan Qi, one of the six notoriously difficult censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and returned the favor while holding back his anger.

There is no way, this man is not only the censor of Zuodu, but also a direct descendant of his in-laws, the Guan family.

Ever since the three girls insisted on taking the scientific examination, the husband of the Guan family, who worked in Kyoto, started to make trouble for him. This time he came to call him specifically, fearing that he would cause trouble again.

…

Sheng Yuan looked at Sheng Han, whom she hadn't seen for many years, feeling inexplicably in a daze.

This cousin looks different from before.

"Sister Yuan, would you like to move to the flower pavilion and catch up with us sisters?" Sheng Han didn't expect to meet Sheng Yuan so easily. She was slightly happy and thought hard about how to persuade her.

"We can't do it today, the Queen Mother is asking me to come over!" Sheng Yuan refused without thinking.

What she said was also true. The female officials from Cining Palace came to look for her just now, but the emperor called them over again, which delayed the arrival time.

Of course, if the person standing in front of him was not this cousin, but someone else, Sheng Yuan would have to give some face and spare some time to talk warmly.

Unfortunately, it was Sheng Han who made the request.

Sheng Yuan was inexplicably wary of her.

"You want to go to Cining Palace?" Sheng Han did not feel embarrassed about being rejected. Instead, he put his hands on his hands and said with a smile, "That's great. I had also thought about going to Cining Palace to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. We just happened to be together."

Sheng Yuan silently took a step back.

Sheng Han pretended not to have seen it and said enthusiastically: "Before, I was taken care of by Concubine Wen, and I was very comfortable in Tai'an Palace. Before Concubine Wen left the palace, she specifically told me to pay her respects to the Queen Mother from time to time on her behalf.

Since Concubine Wen left the palace, I have asked the Queen Mother to take care of all my affairs in Tai'an Palace, so I have the intention to go and express my gratitude."

The reason she said was sufficient, but Sheng Yuan wanted to laugh when she heard it.

Since she was under the care of the Queen Mother, why didn't she move to Cining Palace?

It can be seen that this person speaks with great substance.

Sheng Yuan got out of the way: "Since Sixth Sister is going to Cining Palace, please invite me first! The Queen Mother always likes peace and quiet. It would be too noisy for us to go there together. I will go there later!"

"Ninth sister deliberately distanced herself from her elder sister?" Sheng Han's smile faded, "The Queen Mother is happy to be quiet, and my elder sister is not a noisy person. Why do you make so much noise when you have more sisters?"

"I'm afraid Sixth Sister has misunderstood." Seeing that she insisted on leaving with him, Sheng Yuan became more and more suspicious of the other party's purpose.

In the past, when she was in Duke Sheng's palace, this person wanted to take a detour when he saw her. Is it possible that after entering the palace, even people who didn't like her fell in love with her?

Sheng Yuan used himself to save others and shook his head, fearing that he would be asking for something from others.

She didn't think she had anything worthy of the other party's entrustment. The only way for her cousin to speak would be to the Queen Mother or the Emperor.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Sheng Yuan did not dare to let her speak.

"The Queen Mother likes peace and quiet, and doesn't like people coming uninvited. If my sister comes over hastily, I'm afraid she will have to greet her outside the palace. When I go in, you will be outside, and that will look bad."

"..." Sheng Han suddenly raised his head when he heard this.

However, Sheng Yuan's expression was calm and there was no trace of sarcasm on his face. It seemed as if he was just telling the truth without any intention of ridicule.

The smile on Sheng Han's face could no longer be maintained.

She really didn't expect that Sheng Yuan's annoying attitude had not changed after they hadn't seen each other for a long time!
