Quick wear: The male supporting actor ran away with a bucket

After Guo Yumei left, Tu Yufan coughed.

"Xiaohua, stop hiding, come out."

Jin Xiaohua came out of another room in the study with an expression of embarrassment about being caught.

"Dad, I was looking for a book here, and then I fell asleep."

"It's okay, I don't blame you. Dad wants to hear your thoughts on this matter."

Jin Xiaohua pursed her lips and shook her head: "I don't want to be that young master's concubine, and I don't like this woman either. She is obviously unwilling and pretends to be warm-hearted."

"Dad doesn't like it either. Xiaohua has to become a real lady in the future and wear a bright red wedding dress to get married."

A blush appeared on Jin Xiaohua's face.

"Dad, it's still early for me. I want to stay with dad for a little longer."

A sixteen-year-old woman is not young anymore. Girls in Jisheng Village are basically married at this age, but she is still too young for Tu Yufan.

It's just that I can prepare to show Xiao Huaxiang her husband's house.

Later, I heard that the prince had arrived in the capital safely and that he was well-connected with the holy family. The emperor had repaired the prince's palace early, and the food and clothing expenses were second only to the emperor.

However, the prince kept a low profile. The emperor wanted to allow the prince to participate in government affairs. The prince used the reason that his injury had not healed and he had been neglecting his studies for many years and he needed to study again. He hoped that his father would give him some time, and the emperor agreed.

Tu Yufan couldn't help but think back to the prince's life experience. Perhaps only after experiencing being deposed can he truly understand that this position is like walking on thin ice. His brothers want to pull him down and smash him to pieces. The title of "Father" also means that he is the emperor first and then his father.

Later, Tu Yufan was not in a hurry to go to the capital. Instead, at the invitation of the county magistrate, he worked as a teacher at the college for half a year. After hearing that the prince was slowly settling down in the capital without any trouble, he quit his job and went to the capital.

During this period, a young scholar hoped to marry Jin Xiaohua. Tu Yufan did some research and asked Jin Xiaohua's opinion. He felt that there was no problem and decided for the time being.

The specific implementation of the engagement will have to wait until Tu Yufan participates in the examination, which will take about three years. If he is not willing to wait, naturally he will not force it.

The man expressed his willingness to wait. Tu Yufan nodded with satisfaction and left Shao County.

Of course, during this period, Jin Lougui must be beaten, and Shen Xinru was entrusted to discipline him well. If necessary, he could be beaten by others.

Shen Xinru is now the head of the Jin family. Except for Tu Yufan, she is the boss at home. The guards and servants all obey her arrangements. With her in charge, Jin Lougui can't make any mistakes.

When he arrived in the capital, Tu Yufan followed the address in the letter and found a family. This family was not in the most prosperous part of the capital, but in a relatively remote and quiet place.

There was only a closed wooden door at the entrance. He walked up and knocked on the door for a long time before an old woman came over and looked at Tu Yufan.

"Sir, it's inconvenient for my master to see guests. Please come back."

It seems that many people have visited this place.

Tu Yufan took out the letter: "Auntie, please make it easier for me. Someone introduced me here. Please give this letter to me."

The old woman took the letter and casually scanned the cover. When she saw the words on it, her expression changed, and she turned around and took the letter in.

After an unknown amount of time, the old woman opened the door again, her expression much more cheerful.

"Sir, please come with me."

After passing a winding path, we arrived at the bookstore where the mahogany brilliance flowed.

Inside there was an old man with a bright head and pale face, wearing a gray robe. He raised his eyes and glanced at Tu Yufan, his expression unchanged.

"Since it was introduced by His Highness the Crown Prince, I will accept it. You can first rewrite the scriptures, meanings and strategies that you wrote in the previous provincial examination."

Tu Yufan was not afraid, he calmly sat down to sharpen his ink, and wrote calmly. After a few hours, he finally wrote the original text roughly, with slight changes. After all, it was all based on memory and could not be perfect.

"It's quite satisfactory. I can't get a very good ranking." The old man looked at it carefully for a while and uttered a few words indifferently.

Tu Yufan thought that it didn't matter if he was on the right track, as long as he passed the exam.

But judging from the appearance of this old man, he seems to be quite demanding, so he might as well keep his mouth shut.

Tu Yufan lived here after that. The old man's name was Zhu Xiaowei. Aunt Cao said that he once served as the censor of Zuodu, but later resigned and became lonely. He never married a wife and had no children. Aunt Cao was unwilling to disclose the rest.

At first, Zhu Xiaowei felt that he had insufficient spiritual energy, but he was still very hardworking. Later, he felt that his memory was extraordinary, and he became more concerned about him.

After a while, Xiang Chengting actually came here. He was wearing regular clothes and only brought two servants with him.

"His Royal Highness, you'd better not come over. His Majesty will be unhappy."

Xiang Chengting said with a smile: "Uncle Zhu, I have a special meeting with Brother Yu Fan. I sneaked out of the palace, and my father will not know."

Zhu Xiao glared at him for blowing his beard: "There is nothing that Your Majesty doesn't know about the affairs of the capital!"

Xiang Chengting changed the subject and said, "I wonder how knowledgeable Brother Yufan is?"

"I'm so stupid that I can barely do it until next year."

"Sir, he is a great scholar, and his requirements for brother Yu Fan are too high. It is already very good to meet the qualifications of the general examination."

Tu Yufan nodded secretly, not bad, not bad. He didn't want to engage in any academic research. His purpose was to take the imperial examination. If the research was too thorough, more than ten years might not be enough.

Zhu Xiaowei looked at Tu Yufan's nonchalant look and felt that Tu Yufan was wasting his talent. He had no choice but to ask, "His Royal Highness has recently been involved in political affairs."

"Yes, I've pushed it once but don't push it again. This time it's about the flood in Cangzhou. I'm going to Cangzhou in the near future, so I came here specifically to see you, sir, and brother Yu Fan."

"Everything must be done with caution. Don't act alone. Your Highness was too careless last time."

"Thanks to Brother Yu Fan for saving Gu Yi's life."

Zhu Xiaowei also secretly rejoiced that if the prince died, it would not be a pity for the concubine Mi to die ten thousand times.

Seeing that they still had something to say, Tu Yufan left.

At this time, someone knocked on the door. Tu Yufan opened it and saw a woman, wearing plain clothes and no makeup.

Thinking that he was here to see Zhu Xiaowei, he said, "The teacher is negotiating with someone, so the girl can wait a moment."

The woman asked curiously: "Are you my uncle's student?"

"Yes."

Zhu Xiaowei didn't like him calling him teacher at first, but later he reluctantly accepted it, but in the end he still performed the apprenticeship ceremony.

In this world, the master-student relationship can already be compared to a father-son relationship.

Afterwards, the two fell into silence until Xiang Chengting and Zhu Xiaowei came out.

"His Royal Highness, greeting, uncle."

"It's Sang Sang, why are you here today?" When Zhu Xiaowei saw her, his eyebrows instantly stretched, and his tone was affectionate.

"Uncle, I have received the things you sent the day before yesterday. I came here today to thank you."

"It's hard to come here, let's have dinner together, Yufan, too."

The woman frowned slightly, seeming a little embarrassed.

Xiang Chengting suddenly winked at him, and Tu Yufan's expression froze.

"Uncle Zhu, I have something to discuss with Yufan. I will come visit you again after the matter in Cangzhou is over."

Just when Zhu Xiaowei was about to refuse, Xiang Chengting said again: "I know that I can't hide anything from my father, but you are my teacher. How can I stay away from you just to avoid suspicion? I don't want to become a person like my father." .”

These words were a bit harsh. Fortunately, there were only Tu Yufan and that woman around, and they were probably trustworthy people.

Zhu Xiaowei sighed and let him go.
