Chapter 237: Eat and drink, don’t put anything in your heart

Xue Mei wrote in the imperial study.

It has been a year since she traveled through ancient times. She has learned to take pulses in traditional Chinese medicine, but she has practiced very well with her handwriting.

She used her personal terminal in her brain to search for the imperial examination system and wrote tens of thousands of words on this system.

There were tens of thousands of words, and it took Xue Mei to write it for nearly three hours, which is six hours.

She didn't eat lunch either.

After she finished writing part of it, the emperor took away part of it and went to read it.

There were several confidant ministers in the imperial study room, including Xue Mei's second uncle Xue Jingsheng.

After she finished writing all of it, she was tired and hungry, and she felt very tired just standing.

She glanced at her second uncle.

The second uncle nodded at her.

Several ministers were also talking.

This system is definitely very good.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Liu Gao also had similar manuscripts, which came from ten years ago." A minister said, "When everyone read it, everyone said he was whimsical.

Mr. Liu Gao’s suggestion was to abolish the election and hold examinations among the gentry. The county lord had a broader idea, which was to be the whole world.”

"It's feasible, but you have to take it slowly and plan for ten years. Your Majesty, the country will last forever, and once the reform system is successful, the achievements will last for thousands of years, so you must not be too hasty."

Which emperor doesn’t want to achieve success in his future?

After hundreds or even thousands of years, people can remember him and the imperial examination system he created. Just think about it can make people feel excited.

"Okay, very good." said the emperor.

At this time, Xiao Jingcheng also came in.

He glanced at the emperor and the ministers, and then went to see Xue Mei.

Seeing that everyone was only looking at Xue Mei's manuscript and no one noticed her, Xiao Jingcheng had something to say: "Your Majesty, the Lord of Chengyang has written so many words, and the water and rice have not been filled. Why not give her a bite first?"

The emperor and the ministers all looked at Xue Mei.

Sure enough, Xue Mei was listless and her eyebrows were drooping.

The emperor laughed: "Comeone came, and I will have a meal in the side hall. I will take my lunch and give it to the Lord of Chengyang County."

Xue Mei: "..."

So, is her only reward for one meal this time?

She didn't feel very honorable, but was very discouraged and went out after thanking her.

Second uncle Xue Jingsheng's heart was shocked.

The emperor gave food, which is a sign of gifting.

While eating, Xiao Jingcheng watched Xue Mei take a porcelain spoon and scoop it little by little with her left hand.

Her right hand was almost exhausted and it was difficult to pick up the spoon.

The emperor gave him a total of twelve dishes, which were extremely rich. Xue Mei was too lazy to move and only ate the fried reed in front of her.

Xiao Jingcheng took the spoon in her hand: "I'll do it."

Xue Mei turned around, like a little bird, and opened her mouth wide and waited for Xiao Jingcheng to feed her.

Xiao Jingcheng picked up some of the dishes on the table, put them in a small plate, used chopsticks to assist the spoon, and fed Xue Mei at one go.

Xue Mei took a bite of mutton and shook her head: "It's too light, don't want this."

Xiao Jingcheng allocated the mutton.

One of them was carefully fed, and the other was so comfortable that they were stunned by the eunuchs and palace maids who served beside them.

The eunuch in charge of the emperor was right in front of him at this moment, and he felt like he was a ghost when he saw this.

This eunuch in charge has been in the palace for almost forty years and has watched Xiao Jingcheng grow up.

This prince is the old son of the late emperor.

The father loved his younger son, and the late emperor favored King Rui to the extreme.

King Rui has been a cold personality since he was a child.

Not only is he cold in character, but his eyes are also cold when he looks at people. In the palace and outside the palace, he rarely gets close to people. Even if he goes to start a family, he only knows how to practice martial arts and does not know how to date the lady who is a famous family.

Miss Cheng's family died, and everyone outside said that he was heartbroken, saying that in order to avenge Miss Cheng, he slaughtered more than 700 Huns.

The old eunuch didn't know whether this matter was true or not.

The old eunuch only remembers that when King Rui and Miss Cheng got engaged, when they went to the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager, King Rui left Miss Cheng far behind because he walked too fast, causing Miss Cheng to get lost.

Now, when King Rui was so humble and serving a woman for meals, the old eunuch was shocked.

Is this still Prince Rui?

However, the Lord of Chengyang County is indeed very talented and very beautiful.

The old eunuch believed in Buddhism. In his eyes, the Lord of Chengyang County had a mole on his eyebrows, which was very beautiful and somewhat mysterious.

It can be seen that everyone is different from aesthetics.

"Is the dragon boat race over?" Xue Mei finally had time to speak after eating half full.

Xiao Jingcheng: "It's over."

After saying that, he fed Xue Mei another mouthful.

While eating, Xue Mei asked him in a vague way: "Who won?"

"It goes without saying that it must be King Yu." Xiao Jingcheng said.

Xue Mei: "Why?"

"King Rong is cautious and has no support. He will not win against Prince Yu and add a strong enemy. The prince has no intention of fighting and will not fight hard. Prince Yu is competitive. This time he has to see both of his concubines, so he will naturally fight to the death." Xiao Jingcheng said.

Xue Mei narrowed her eyes slightly, finished the food in her mouth, and asked him: "Do you don't know, you guessed randomly?"

"I don't know, but it's not a random guess." Xiao Jingcheng said, and then asked the old eunuch around him, "Did King Yu win the dragon boat race today?"

The old eunuch didn't know either.

He smiled and said, "I sent someone to inquire."

A moment later, the eunuch reported back and forth that it was indeed King Yu who won the dragon boat race today; King Rong was the second, and the prince was behind.

Fortunately, Your Majesty is not here, otherwise the prince will be scolded again.

Xiao Jingcheng raised his eyebrows slightly at Xue Mei.

Xue Mei laughed.

"It seems that you know your nephews very well." Xue Mei said.

"It's all children, what's hard to understand?"

Xue Mei: "..."

She finished lunch, and although it was half afternoon, the insulin in the blood vessels was unreasonable, and the concentration increased, making Xue Mei drowsy.

"Father-in-law, please help me ask Your Majesty. If nothing happens, I will go back to bed first." Xue Mei said.

Old eunuch: "County Lord, this is absolutely not allowed. You can't leave before the adults have left. There is a warm pavilion in this side hall, so why don't you lie down first?"

Xue Meidao is good.

She said to Xiao Jingcheng: "I'll go to sleep for a while. The Empress Dowager has returned to the palace, so you can go there and sit there."

Xiao Jingcheng: “…”

Does she know where this is?

She just pretended to be in her home yard, eating and sleeping, and was not nervous at all.

Xiao Jingcheng always felt that she still regarded herself as a passerby. She didn't care about life and death. The emperor and the palace were just new to her.

She has no worries.

When Xiao Jingcheng thought of this, his heart shrank, fearing that one day she would disappear.

He said, "I will accompany you to relax in the palace, don't sleep anymore. This is the main hall of Your Majesty, and it is not suitable for a break."

Xue Mei: "..."

She had no choice but to go for a walk with Xiao Jingcheng.

After walking, she was indeed much more awake. However, they met several people in the imperial garden and were also walking, both of them, and they were concubines.

Xue Mei knew one of them and was slightly surprised.

She never expected to meet an acquaintance in the harem.
