I don’t want it

Although Su Xiaomu and Xiu Ruiu were talking, they both put their minds aside and came out to the palace gate.

As soon as he saw the palace door open, Su Xiaomu immediately said goodbye to Wu Ruiu and planned to pick up Gu Jingcheng.

And Weiwei also had her own husband to worry about. The two of them had to do the same thing, so they ran as fast as they could.

The students who participated in the palace examination walked out one by one. Su Xiaomu stood on the side and raised his head, looking forward to Gu Jingcheng.

The clothes she wore for Gu Jingcheng today were so eye-catching, so he should be very easy to recognize.

But her eyes were sore and she didn't see Gu Jingcheng come out.

Instead, she vaguely heard someone talking next to her, and noticed many eyes falling on her.

"This is Gu Zhuangyuan's wife? She doesn't look very good either. How come Gu Zhuangyuan is willing to offend the Holy Emperor for such a woman, and almost fails to live up to the position of number one scholar that he has earned through years of hard study?"

A student with a beautiful face passed by Su Xiaomu. He took a deep look at Su Xiaomu. His eyes were so complicated that Su Xiaomu felt an uncomfortable feeling of panic all over his body.

Then I heard someone next to me say: "Perhaps she really did a lot of things for Gu Zhuangyuan, didn't Gu Zhuangyuan say that? If he didn't have a wife to help him, take care of his family business and serve his parents, he would definitely not

There will be such achievements as now.”

"But as a wife and a daughter-in-law, isn't it what you should do? Gu Zhuangyuan actually felt gratitude for the first time, which is unimaginable."

The students all shook their heads and left, with Gu Jingcheng being the last one to come out.

When the students who were about to leave saw Gu Jingcheng, most of them stopped and whispered about something. In short, few were willing to leave.

Su Xiaomu's heart was still pounding, and she was even more panicked than in the morning.

She raised her eyes to meet Gu Jingcheng's gaze. After seeing the smile hidden in his eyes, Su Xiaomu wanted to stiffly twitch the corners of her lips and smile with him, but no matter what, Su Xiaomu just felt that the corners of her lips

It weighed a thousand pounds, and I even felt like I wanted to vomit in my chest.

"Gu Jingcheng."

Su Xiaomu took the initiative to greet him. She now felt that there were other people whispering in her ears, and she could still hear them saying that Gu Jingcheng had offended the emperor because of her.

"You were inside, what did His Majesty ask you?"

"Your Majesty asked me whether the laws of the country should be stricter or gentler. I said the laws should be strict. Without rules, nothing can be achieved. Talents can only be achieved with constraints. This is an eternal truth."

Gu Jingcheng raised his hand to straighten the strands of hair on Su Xiaomu's forehead and put them behind her head. His voice was extremely gentle and his eyes were full of soft light.

"Your Majesty likes my answer very much. The Prime Minister also told Mr. Young Master that I may be a person who can really ask for orders for the people. This is probably like what you said. As a parent official, you must always do practical things for the people.

Find a way out."

Gu Jingcheng told Su Xiaomu what happened in the imperial study today word by word, but he never mentioned the fact that he almost offended His Majesty because of Su Xiaomu.

But there is no airtight wall in the world, and no matter how thick the paper is, it cannot contain the fierce open fire.

Even if Su Xiaomu didn't go to the main hall together and didn't have the opportunity to enter the imperial study to meet Tianyan, didn't he still have a rough idea of ​​what Gu Jingcheng said in front of His Majesty?

"Yes, my parents really want to do practical things for the people and find practical solutions, but what else did you say? I heard them when they came out just now. They said that you almost angered His Majesty because of me. You said it in front of His Majesty

What? Are you doing something stupid?"

Su Xiaomu suddenly felt that her flustered day had finally found its result.

No wonder she kept feeling uneasy today, it turned out that Gu Jingcheng was waiting for her here.

On such an important occasion, when Gu Jingcheng's fate was almost decided, how could he not seize the opportunity to make His Majesty appreciate him more, but instead talk about this matter and have something to do with her?

"I didn't do anything stupid. Everything I did came from my own heart. For me, standing up for you is not a stupid thing. Didn't I promise you that I would give you justice? We have no choice.

Let Marquis Dingxi and his bastard nephew pay the price, but Your Majesty can. Your Majesty has promised to make the decision for us, and all the grievances you have suffered before will not be in vain."

When Gu Jingcheng did this, he knew that Su Xiaomu would not allow him to do this.

But he just acted from his heart, not only for Su Xiaomu, but also for himself.

"But I don't need you to do this for me. I said I have my own thoughts on my own affairs. Gu Jingcheng, you are the top scholar in the imperial examination today, not a lunatic. Even if you can't do things carefully, you still have to understand the ins and outs.

What's at stake? If you do this, you are clearly hanging your head on your waistband. Don't you think about your own life and death, and don't you think about the rest of the family?"

Su Xiaomu really felt a sense of powerlessness at this moment.

She herself is a person with very narrow shoulders. She cannot afford Gu Jingcheng's sacrifice, nor can she be tied to so many people's lives.

She had already considered Liu Lu's matter in her heart.

The reason why there has been no movement now is because the opportunity to strike has not been seized.

The more Su Xiaomu thought about it, the angrier she felt. Her chest kept rising and falling violently, and her face was stained with anger.

"If you cut the grass without eradicating the root, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows." Gu Jingcheng said coldly and decisively, "Maybe you have other ways to avenge yourself. Maybe what I did is too radical, but asking Your Majesty to help us avenge us is this.

The safest thing in the world is that under the imperial power, even if he is the Marquis of Dingxi, the Manchus can only be destroyed in one breath."

Gu Jingcheng's indifferent look when he spoke made Su Xiaomu unable to believe that the person in front of him was him.

Is it the first step to become an official if you don't value human life so much, admire imperial power and put human life under your feet?

Or is it that Gu Jingcheng was born to be a powerful minister? Once he holds power, he will never see the suffering of ordinary people again?

Su Xiaomu couldn't believe that everything would be like what he thought.

She knew that she was a bit over the top now, but Gu Jingcheng was not like that...he was kind in nature no matter what, and the number one scholar who came out of the common people would hold the common people high in his heart.

Banishing all the distracting thoughts in his heart, Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng with complicated eyes, hesitant to speak.

"Perhaps you have a lot to say, and perhaps things really happened because of me, but I don't like the way you don't cherish your own future, Gu Jingcheng, I told you a long time ago that there is no one in this world better than yourself.

More important."
