Chapter 2304 The Lost Miss of the Scholar's Family 53
In fact, it is not to blame the emperor for being entangled.
In recent years of imperial examinations, the appearance of scholars in their early years is all mediocre.
The emperor is a person who loves beauty, who likes to sit in the hall, and what he sees at a glance is either an old man or a pair of innocent facial features.
Therefore, every time the imperial examination is awarded, it is a disobedience.
This time, a handsome and eye-catching scholar finally came here. Not only is he good-looking, but he is also outstanding in talent and learning.
Especially when facing the saint, he can be neither humble nor overbearing, and can deal with it freely.
Unlike the group of scholars in the back, each one of them almost shook off the meat.
It is precisely because of this rare trouble for the emperor.
With Ji Jinyu's talent and learning, he deserves the title of No. [-] Scholar, especially when he was Jie Yuan in every provincial examination before.
But given him the champion, what should Tanhua do?
That is to say, Tanhua is called Tanhua only if he has a good appearance.
In the entire hall, there was no one whose appearance was comparable to Ji Jinyu, so why did the emperor point out someone at random against his will.
He is not blind!
The emperor loves beauty, but he also loves talents.
The talents and learning of the other two scholars were far inferior to Ji Jinyu's, and the emperor felt a little ignorant of his conscience if he wanted to choose a champion from among them.
After much deliberation, the emperor finally gave Ji Jinyu the name of Tanhua.
And in order to compensate Ji Jinyu, he actually gave Ji Jinyu the official position of compiling from the sixth-rank Jiyingdian, which was higher than the official position of compiling from the sixth-rank Imperial Academy awarded by the champion.
For a while, Ji Jinyu was in the limelight.
Even his good name has spread, not to mention the ladies in Beijing, even the common people are curious about the appearance of this new Ke Tanhua, so they are looking forward to Tanhua to parade more and more.
When the news reached Gu Ruojiao's ears, the grand parade was over.
Ji Jinyu's reputation spread to Yangzhou.
When the Gu family and the people in those houses heard that Ji Jin had met the Holy Spirit's favor, they all had very different expressions, and their hearts were full of schemes.
On the contrary, Gu Ruojiao still eats well and lives comfortably, and makes troubles from time to time.
It's just that now the rooms of the Gu family don't dare to blatantly scold her anymore.
On this day, Hongye combed Gu Ruojiao's hair for the just woke up: "My maidservant heard that the Holy Majesty wanted to marry the young master to a princess. I heard that this Princess An Ning has good looks and conduct, dignified, virtuous and gentle."
"Oh?" Gu Ruojiao, who was not fully awake, yawned lazily, "What do you think?"
Hongye was stunned for a moment, and then panicked: "Slave, servant, I don't have any ideas."
"Is that so? I thought you told me specifically because you cared about Brother Ji's marriage."
"Slaves don't dare!" Hong Ye knelt down in fright.
She no longer dared to offend Gu Ruojiao anymore, and Mrs. Fifth was obviously suspicious of her.
She has no way to justify, and she is even more afraid of being abandoned by Gu Ruojiao for doing something wrong. At that time, the fifth wife will definitely take the opportunity to sell her too!
Hongye had heard before that many of the maids who were sent back from Zhongzhou Zhuangzi were sold to kilns if they were a little more attractive.
She doesn't want to fall to that point!
Gu Ruojiao didn't even blink, and let her kneel down, but said: "Oh, why are you panicking, I'm just asking."
Hongye still dare not speak.
Now she doesn't feel that she is just talking casually.
She couldn't understand this master more and more, and she often thought about it, and every time she made a fuss, she was terrified, but every time she seemed to have taken advantage of it.
Not to mention the rooms in Gu's mansion, even Mrs. Tai can't do anything to her, let alone her as a servant.
In fact, Hongye wished that Ji Jinyu would marry a girl from Beijing, so that Gu Ruojiao would have less help.
Without Ji Jinyu's support, she would be nothing more than a willful little girl.
