Chapter 313 A powerful official dressed as a man 1
Yuyan was relieved to see him leave, but looking at the direction he was going, he was heading towards the palace gate, which was a bit embarrassing.
Gu Heng was a sensitive, suspicious, and cunning person. She didn't want to have too much contact with him for fear of being discovered and executed.
The two of them walked one after the other. After leaving the palace, Gu Heng got on the carriage and drove towards his prime minister's residence.
Yuyan was in a more miserable situation. The original owner didn't have a carriage, so she could only walk back by herself.
The original owner rented a small courtyard not far from the imperial palace. Although it was small, it had everything he needed and was quite convenient for living there alone.
Moreover, the house she rented was not far from the palace, so Yuyan just walked back leisurely, and even had a bowl of wontons as a midnight snack on the way back.
After returning home, Yuyan quickly washed up and went to bed.
After all, I have a public office now and I have to punch in every day. I don’t know whether it is easy to take a leave. The work intensity is very high!
I don't know what I do every day, but I'm busy all day long without stopping. It's really speechless.
The next day, Yuyan reported for duty on time. Not long after she arrived at her office, Zhao Shidu, who was two ranks higher than her, came to ask her to draft an imperial edict.
Yu Yan cursed him as an idiot in her heart, and raised her hand to hand him the intact edict that the original owner had written yesterday.
Zhao Shidu picked it up and took a quick glance at it, then immediately frowned and scolded Yuyan.
"What the hell is this? Apart from the words, there is no literary style at all."
This Zhao Shidu was a Jinshi from the previous two sessions. He later used his connections to stay in the Hanlin Academy, but he started from the lowest level, a Shujishi. It took him six years to finally become a Shidu of the sixth rank.
However, Yuyan was appreciated by the emperor for her outstanding literary talent and was directly promoted to the seventh rank editor, so he could not stand Yuyan even more.
"Yes, Shangguan taught me that."
Seeing her humble attitude and the look of allowing herself to be manipulated, Zhao Shidu's expression improved a little, but he still spoke with a haughty look.
"Just give me the first one you wrote yesterday! I'll just have to deal with it for now."
Yuyan quickly found the article and thanked him respectfully with a very polite attitude.
The man really couldn't find anything to fault with her, so he took the article, snorted, and left.
Yuyan looked at his back and memorized him in the little black notebook in her heart. Don't let her succeed, otherwise you, a bastard, will have a bad life.
Afterwards, Yuyan just slacked off the whole day, because there was nothing to do at all. She was just a newcomer and no one cared about her. No one led her or told her what to do, so she just messed around.
Of course Yuyan was also quite satisfied, but she really didn't know how to complete this task.
She wanted to bring honor to her father's family without revealing her identity. She even wanted to marry a man of her dreams as a woman.
Haha...I have to say, the original owner really had a beautiful idea.
I don’t know if they would be able to accept it if she overthrew the emperor and made an emperor for her family.
Isn't this the highest honor? It will surely bring glory to our ancestors! Isn't this the highest realm that men should pursue in their careers?
Yuyan survived like this for several days, and then one day she suddenly figured it out and decided to find a backer for the time being.
After thinking for a long time, she felt that the seventh prince Nangong Chen was a good choice and had the appearance of an emperor.
Especially since the emperor would not live long, and later on it seemed that the seventh prince would be named crown prince and become the next emperor.
So she should spend more time with the Seventh Prince and be his playmate. When their relationship grows strong, she will be the Crown Prince's right-hand man. After that, she will be the Emperor's favorite and can do whatever she wants!
In this way, not only will the original owner's family be honored, but she will also have a distinguished status at that time. If she is more careful, her identity will definitely not be leaked, and she can live a peaceful life in that way.
As for the other line, let's put it aside for now! After all, she's not schizophrenic, so how can she be so versatile?
Do it as soon as you think of it. Yu Yan took the opportunity to stroll around the Seventh Prince. She had an easy job anyway. She just had to report for work every day and no one would pay attention to her. Besides, she could be said to be studying historical books.
The princes were all studying and attending lectures in the Imperial Academy. The seventh prince was already fifteen years old and was studying under Prime Minister Gu Heng. He was both virtuous and academically excellent.
But because he was usually disciplined too strictly, his rebellious period seemed to come a little late. Unless Gu Heng taught the class in person or the emperor tested his homework, he would skip classes and go out for a walk. The original owner had accidentally encountered this several times.
Yuyan took the opportunity and ran into Nangong Chen at the rockery in the imperial garden. He was hiding in the rockery and petting a cat!
He is a prince. The emperor is ruthless and does not like those who are indecisive. He thinks that they are not emperor-like, so he strictly forbids the princes to keep pets.
But Nangong Chen is a furry person. He likes cats and dogs. Whenever he sees one, he would hold it in his arms and pet it non-stop.
But he didn't dare let others know, especially the emperor, so he could only hide here and play with the little animals quietly every time.
"Seventh Prince, why are you here?"
Yuyan's sudden voice scared Nangong Chen, who was a very gentle and honest boy.
Seeing Yu Yan suddenly appear, he was a little panicked at first, and subconsciously hid the kitten, and then scolded Yu Yan with a stern face.
"Why should I report to you what this prince is doing?"
"I dare not. I just happened to pass by here yesterday and saw a cute kitten. I brought some minced meat to feed it today."
"You, you come here specifically to feed cats? You like cats too?" When Nangong Chen heard him say this, he felt like he had found a like-minded person and immediately let down most of his guard.
"Hmm? So that cat was raised by Your Highness? It's so lucky." Yuyan flattered calmly.
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't raise it. I was just passing by and thought it was cute, so I played with it." If this got to the ears of the emperor, the cat would probably die again.
"Oh, it's really cute. Since Your Highness likes it, why don't you take it back to the palace and keep it?"
"...I don't like it. This prince is just in a spur of the moment, not to mention my father..."
Nangong Chen's originally bright eyes dimmed as he looked at the kitten in his hands, his face full of grievance.
He didn't understand, why didn't his father like such a cute cat? He really couldn't understand it!
Seeing this, Yu Yan quickly took over and comforted him, "Why don't you let me keep this cat? If Your Highness wants to play with it, you can come to my house to see it. I will definitely take good care of it and make it plump and white."
Nangong Chen looked at the cat in his hand, then at Yuyan, and gave some instructions with some concern.
"Really? Well, then you can't tell anyone, understand?"
