This made Han Du feel suspicious, thinking that Zhu Biao was deliberately avoiding him.
As for why Zhu Biao was hiding from him?
Han Du snorted coldly in his heart, does Zhu Biao want to regret it? He helped him clear up his doubts, but he didn't want to help him ask what Princess Anqing meant?
You want to hide, right? It's so cheap there.
If the mountains don't come, I'll go to them, and I'll go to the mountains.
It’s not that easy to default on your debt!
The next day, Han Du came to the East Palace early in the morning.
When Zhu Biao received the report from the palace that Han Du was coming, he felt in a dilemma and had a severe headache. But no matter how bad the headache is, there are some things that you can't avoid even if you want to.
I had no choice but to tell the people around me, "Pass it."
As soon as Han Du arrived, he bowed to Zhu Biao and said, "My lord, Han Du pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Zhu Biao pretended to be surprised, stood up, walked to Han Du, and said, "Get up quickly. You have worked hard on the coal mine this time. Don't worry, your contribution will not be forgotten."
Han Du straightened up and said calmly: "I don't mind whether I have merit or not. I came here today to ask His Highness what His Highness promised me. It has been so long. Is there any news?"
Zhu Biao's heart skipped a beat and sighed secretly. Seeing that he couldn't escape, Zhu Biao waved his hands to the people around him to get out. When only he and Han Du were left here, Zhu Biao smiled, patted Han Du on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I will keep your things in mind. Oh, yesterday, yes, it was yesterday. Finally, I finally I found an opportunity and went to Anqing."
Zhu Biao hesitated, thinking about how he could get his words back. Although Zhu Biao did ask, Anqing was indeed interested in Han Du. But Zhu Biao didn't want to tell Han Du, because once Han Du knew about it, looking at Han Du's appearance, he might desperately try to find a way to accomplish this.
But this matter is not easy. If Han Du "doesn't hit the south wall and never look back", he may anger his father. Once his father blames him, Han Du will have no choice but to die.
"What did Princess Anqing say?" Han Du didn't expect Zhu Biao to actually ask for him, and he was suddenly pleasantly surprised. But at the same time, he was also very nervous because Han Du was not sure that Princess Anqing was interested in him.
Zhu Biao looked at Han Du with a look of pity on his face. He didn't speak, just sighed.
Han Du's heart suddenly sank. Judging from Zhu Biao's expression, this matter might not be as good as he imagined. The happy look on Han Du's face quickly faded, he calmed down and said firmly: "Your Highness, please tell me the result. Your Highness, don't worry, I can still bear it."
Han Du only wants one result now, even if the result is completely opposite to what he thought. If Princess Anqing has no intention of him, then Han Du is ready to let go and stop entangled. In fact, Han Du was interested in Princess Anqing because he regarded her as his former wife in his heart and wanted to compensate her urgently.
In fact, if you think about it, Han Du is just wishful thinking. It is really unfair to Princess Anqing. After all, Han Du regarded her as a substitute for the person he once loved.
If we can cut off the love thread with the sword of wisdom, it will be a good ending.
Han Du figured it out and took a long breath, waiting for Zhu Biao's reply.
However, in just a moment, Zhu Biao had already thought about how to answer Han Du.
Zhu Biao looked regretful, nodded solemnly to Han Du, and said, "Gu mentioned you to An Qing yesterday, but she had no impression of you at all. Gu reminded her that when she went to find Gu that day, she met him in the garden. An Qing only remembered you after suddenly realizing it. But when Gu asked her if she still remembered what you looked like, An Qing just shook her head with dull eyes, alas..."
Is this the result? It was indeed wishful thinking.
Han Du suddenly felt heartache, and he didn't know why he felt heartache. It was clear that I had been able to face all the consequences calmly just now, but now why was I suddenly so disturbed by a burst of heartache? Why am I still so sad and lost now that I have prepared everything? Why is this?
Naturally, no one can give him the answer to Han Du's doubts.
After a while, Han Du finally regained his composure and asked in a harsh voice: "Did His Highness ask Princess Anqing what she meant?"
Han Du didn't know why he still asked these questions. Zhu Biao's words could clearly explain Princess Anqing's attitude. But Han Du still asked, perhaps because of some strange mistake, or perhaps because he was determined not to give up.
Zhu Biao nodded slightly and said slowly: "Asked."
"What did Princess Anqing say?" Han Du raised his head and looked at Zhu Biao with a look of sorrow on his face. Maybe Han Du already knew the answer without asking.
Zhu Biao sighed with a sad face, "Gu told An Qing about your crush on her, but she only said one sentence, but it was up to the father to make the decision."
But it’s up to the father to make the decision!
These six words were like a stone, instantly shattering Han Du's heart into pieces.
What kind of decision can Lao Zhu make for Princess Anqing? Isn't it just to betroth her to Ouyang Lun, a new scholar?
After finally waiting for the result, the sad look on Han Du's face slowly faded.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zhu Biao and said mockingly, "Your Highness, I am a little envious of those who have passed the Jinshi examination."
Han Du thinks that he is not bad in appearance, ability, and ability to make money. He does not know how he is inferior to Ouyang Lun in the eyes of Princess Anqing. After racking his brains, Han Du could only find one reason that could barely convince him, that is, he was just a scholar, and Ouyang Lun was a Jinshi.
Jinshi.
Han Du sneered. If the Han family had not been imprisoned, Han Du was confident that he would be a Jinshi now, and at least a first-, second-, and second-grade Jinshi.
But now it is meaningless to say this. All I can say is, "God's will plays tricks on people." '
Seeing that Han Du had been fooled, Zhu Biao was worried that he would break the casserole and ask to the end, so he continued to ask. Hearing Han Du's change of words, he quickly shook his head and comforted: "What is there to envy as a Jinshi? Not to mention the achievements you have made, you are just the chief officer of the treasure bank promotion department. A top three Jinshi is simply If you don’t have the qualifications to sit on it, a first-class Jinshi might still be able to think about it a little bit.”
I am really playing the piano to a cow!
Han Du felt a pain in his forehead when he looked at Zhu Biao. I am discussing the status of Jinshi with you, but you want to talk about the level of official status.
Do you think I, Han Du, am someone who is greedy for official position?
