"What?!"
Song Liang was shocked and got up from the bed.
Wang Shilu had a sad face, with the wrinkles on his face tightly bunched together.
"When I just came to court, the old minister and his grandson were chased by the Holy Emperor's men before they could even walk out of the palace gate."
"It is said that the Holy One also summoned Mr. Zhou and said that he was going to conduct some kind of test..."
After hearing this, Song Liang couldn't sit still anymore and immediately stood up.
"Change!"
"I want to go to the imperial study room!"
If the assessment thing is really exposed, then what's the point?
If my father knew the truth, he would never forgive me lightly!
Song Liang didn't dare to think about what the result would be, let alone bear it!
He raised his legs to leave the palace, but Pei Sheng hugged his trouser legs tightly.
"Your Highness, you can't go!"
"You haven't figured out the specific situation yet, so you went there so recklessly. Isn't it the same as asking for trouble?"
Under Peisheng's desperate efforts, Song Liang gradually regained some sense.
He turned to Wang Shilu again, his face full of sternness and seriousness.
"I ask you again, are you sure that my father called them both over for this matter?"
Seeing Song Liang's expression so serious, Wang Shilu suddenly lost his confidence.
"this……"
"this……"
"I don't dare to conclude that the Holy One is really here for this..."
"But what I can be sure of is that the Holy One must be conducting some kind of test, so he specially announced that the two of them came to see him!"
"I don't dare to tell lies!"
Looking at Wang Shilu's anxious look, it didn't seem like he was exaggerating.
Song Liang tried his best to calm down and racked his brains to think of the most reasonable solution.
If he suddenly appeared in the imperial study at this time, it would seem too much of a coincidence.
Especially if the fourth guy continues to add insult to injury, his father will definitely become suspicious of him!
For today's plan, there is only...
"Master Wang, I already know what you said."
"You should go out of the palace first. Without my summons, you are not allowed to find me again!"
Seeing that Song Liang was so calm and didn't seem to be planning to go to the Imperial Study Room to rescue his grandson, Wang Shilu was extremely worried.
"Your Highness! This matter is serious and cannot be delayed..."
"Master Wang, are you teaching me how to do things?" Song Liang interrupted impatiently, "How should I solve this problem? It's not your turn to give me some advice here!"
Seeing that Song Liang was angry, Wang Shilu could only swallow all the urgency and helplessness in his heart.
"...Old minister dare not."
"Now that His Highness has made a decision in his mind, I will not bother you too much."
"Old minister, please retire!"
After Wang Shilu left, Song Liang asked Peisheng, "Where is the imperial doctor named Lu?"
Peisheng said respectfully, "Go back to Your Highness, Imperial Physician Lu should be on the way here and will be there soon!"
Song Liang grinned, smiling a little obscenely.
"I have a way. Although it will take some pains, it will be worth it if you can kill two birds with one stone."
"Under the crooked-neck tree in the backyard, there are some white jade powder that I had hidden in advance, and I have been reluctant to touch them."
"Today, it can be put to use."
"Go and dig it out for King Ban immediately!"
"be quick!"
Peisheng didn't know what Song Liang wanted, but he nodded immediately: "Yes!"
…
"Your Majesty, this is the edict written by the minister, please read it!"
In the imperial study room.
Zhao Xuanling took the lead in writing the edict and respectfully presented it to Emperor Liang.
Although he had never been exposed to anything like this before, Zhao Xuanling was very satisfied with his performance.
No matter what, I am much better than Zhou Nan who can't even read a few Chinese characters!
Ever since Zhou Nan came to Beijing, he had always been taking the lead in everything Zhao Xuanling did.
This brought the resentment accumulated in his heart to the point of exploding.
Today's test finally gave Zhao Xuanling a very satisfying hope!
To be fair, he couldn't wait to see how Zhou Nan would make a fool of himself.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xuanling sneered and glanced sideways at Zhou Nan.
I saw that this guy's right hand was trembling, his face was white and blue, and he was terribly ugly.
It seems that in the next second, he will be unable to bear the pressure that hits his face, and he will suffocate to death!
Although before the test, Prince Rong had already told himself how to deal with the test.
But when it came to actually writing, Zhou Nan was extremely nervous.
Even those Chinese characters that I finally learned have been completely forgotten at this moment!
He seriously doubted that the method Prince Rong taught him might not work at all!
But at this moment, besides trusting him, does he have any other choice?
Emperor Liang had already taken the lead in reading the edict written by Zhao Xuanling. At this moment, his mood could only be described in two words -
Oops!
I remember that during the palace examination that day, this Zhao Xuanling was eloquent and answered questions fluently, and performed very well.
Why is today's edict so poorly written?
It even made Emperor Liang feel that Zhao Xuanling, who performed brilliantly in front of him that day, were clearly two completely unrelated people!
Emperor Liang suspected that there was something wrong with his eyesight, so he called Song Huan who was standing aside.
"Fourth, come and take a look at this edict. How is it written?"
Song Huan actually didn't know how to write an imperial edict, but since Emperor Liang asked, he went up and took a few glances.
The writing is very neat, but the content is...
"Father, I think..."
"Relatively average."
Emperor Liang frowned slightly: "Is it just average?"
Song Huan quietly observed Emperor Liang's expression and saw that his face looked a little bad, so he quickly pretended to sigh deeply.
"Father, please tell the truth, please don't be angry!"
Emperor Liang said seriously: "Tell the truth!"
Song Huan frowned slightly: "This edict cannot be said to be averagely written, it can only be said to be very poorly written!"
"To be fair, I think that with such a standard, I can't take on such an important task as an imperial envoy!"
Emperor Liang was helpless: "It seems that my vision is right!"
"This Zhao Xuanling..."
This Zhao Xuanling's lip service is okay, but if he really wants to be an imperial envoy, he still has a long way to go!
Emperor Liang noticed Zhou Nan who was still thinking hard and asked, "Isn't it finished yet?"
Zhou Nan was startled, quickly adjusted his breathing, and answered as Song Huanzhi had taught him: "Your Majesty, I'm still thinking about it!"
Emperor Liang was a little dissatisfied: "What kind of important thing is this that requires you to think about it for so long?"
Zhou Nan said respectfully: "As an imperial envoy, I am representing the face of Your Majesty, so naturally every word must be considered carefully!"
"There must be no carelessness!"
"Wei Chen is always cautious in his actions and dare not write lightly, lest he damage your image."
"Perhaps, the ability of Wei Chen is far from enough to represent your image, the Holy One!"
