The villain and the powerful official secretly read the diary and broke my plot every day

The night is quiet.

Tonight, in the residences of various high-ranking officials in the capital, everyone received the appointment list of this year's Jinshi.

Some people are happy that someone is worried.

Except for Liu Kun, the Minister of Works, no one took the name Jiang Chaosheng seriously.

What great future can the Ministry of Industry, a place where hundreds of craftsmen gather, have?

Just an abandoned piece.

Most people are concerned about the position of the top scholar Shen Guiyuan, because he was directly admitted to the Hanlin Academy.

The Hanlin Academy was affiliated with the central government. Officials in the Hanlin Academy had direct access to many documents and decisions of the central government.

Meng House.

"This Shen Guiyuan has entered the Imperial Academy and will be your colleague from now on."

Meng Xiang put down the list in his hand and looked up at his second son.

"Father, I sent someone to Qizhou to investigate. Shen Guiyuan lost both his parents and is an orphan. I don't know why he chose to seek refuge with Gu Yanqing."

Meng Haowu said from the side, "I'll try to contact him and see if I can win him over to our side."

"Well, it's up to you. You are also on duty in the Hanlin Academy, and you will have many opportunities to interact with each other in the future." Meng Xiang gave the order casually without looking at the roster again.

Only two successful candidates in this year's imperial examination visited Gu Yanqing.

In addition to the top scholar Shen Guiyuan, there is another one, what’s his name? Never mind, it’s not important.

In Meng Xiang's opinion, Shen Guiyuan also came from a poor family, and he simply wanted to replicate Gu Yanqing's path to success.

but……

How many years does it take for Qingyun Kingdom to produce a Gu Yanqing?

His success depends not only on himself, but also on the right time, place and people.

Although Shen Guiyuan is the top scholar, it will be difficult for him to make great progress if he does not integrate into the powerful circle of the capital.

Meng Xiang would not take seriously a top scholar who entered the Hanlin Academy, and he would care even less about the other unknown Jinshi.

Ants are ants after all.

Even if an ant has weight, it is just a bigger ant.

At this time, Shen Guiyuan, the newly crowned top scholar who was being watched by most officials and nobles in the capital, was sitting quietly in a narrow room. Not far in front of Shen Guiyuan was his mother's spirit tablet.

"Mom, I've been admitted to the Hanlin Academy."

There was not much joy on Shen Guiyuan's face, and his eyes were even a little cold.

Once he entered the Hanlin Academy, he would be eligible to enter the central government and walk into the core of power in Qingyun State.

Just like Gu Yanqing.

From having nothing to having all the power!

Dongping Family...

The hatred in Shen Guiyuan's eyes grew stronger, and finally gradually turned into a chill that penetrated into his bones.

"Dong dong."

There was a sudden knock on the door. Shen Guiyuan came back to his senses and his face immediately returned to its usual gentle and jade-like look.

"Who?"

Shen Guiyuan walked to the door but heard no response. He opened the door hesitantly, but there was no one outside.

But there was an envelope on the ground at the door, sealed with wax, and on the red sealing wax was printed the water pattern that he was most familiar with.

The waves wash away the sand, and the waves behind compete with the waves in front.

This water pattern is the symbol of the Dongping family...

Gu Mansion in Beijing.

Unlike other officials who were preoccupied with their own concerns, Gu Yanqing was not looking at the list of newly appointed officials or official documents. He was holding the "Geography of Kyoto" and reading Jiang Jiang's newly updated diary after spending ten taels of silver on it.

[In the third year of Jianping, on the first day of April, the weather was sunny.]

We ordinary people are so happy tonight.

Gu Yanqing only read the beginning of the diary, and it was as if he saw Jiang Jiang sitting in front of him, with her eyebrows curved and her mouth wide open smiling.

This little girl seems particularly happy today.

Big brother is truly a man of destiny, having been directly appointed to the Ministry of Industry. The greatest inventor in Qingyun Kingdom history is about to be born. Haha. Also, Yunyue finally regained her memory today! I can tell she has a lot of concerns. She doesn't want others to know the secret of her identity. And so do I. I don't dare to acknowledge her, because... this world is full of dangers and uncertainties. But these are minor matters. As long as we stand together, with my luck and Big Brother's, and Yunyue's aura as a leading lady, we will surely overcome all dangers and achieve great wealth and honor in the future...

Yun Yue, the heroine of this world.

Besides this...what other secrets does she have about her identity?

What is the relationship between Jiang Jiang and Yun Yue?

There must be some kind of hidden connection between them.

When Gu Yanqing saw this, his eyebrows raised slightly. He felt that he seemed to have discovered some clues, but he couldn't tell what they were.

He had no choice but to calm down and continue reading the diary -

I also met Gu Yanhuan today. It's fun to be friends with her. However, from my observation, Gu Yanhuan is just like in the original plot, obsessed with love, as if she only exists for Liu Cheng'an. A darkened female supporting character who can't get what she wants is terrifying. At the same time, isn't it tragic that a female supporting character who exists only for the male lead in her life? If only Gu Yanhuan could slowly live her own life. Girls can be beautiful together and have fun together. Men are just a spice of life. Women who fight for men are terribly stupid.

Live your life...

Not bound by the so-called 'plot' of this world.

Seeing this, emotions surged in Gu Yanqing's eyes.

Jiang Jiang said that Gu Yanhuan was obsessed with love and only Liu Chengan was left in her life.

And isn’t Gu Yanqing also paranoid?

He also always felt that since his sister really liked her, he must get her. If he couldn't get her, she would be destroyed.

Think of this.

A self-deprecating arc appeared at the corner of Gu Yanqing's lips——

It turns out that it’s not just about the future destiny.

Even his past, his personality, everything about him...

They are all just "background plots" that exist to help others.

The emotions in Gu Yanqing's eyes surged, but soon, like the receding tide, everything returned to calm.

In those sparkling eyes, there was only the tranquility after the storm.

At this moment, Gu Yanqing has completed his true awakening.

As the candlelight flickered, Gu Yanqing lowered his eyes again and continued to read the diary with a calm face. After all, he had bought it with ten taels of silver, so he naturally had to read it carefully.

Mingyue Tower's Eight Treasure Duck is delicious, and the orange wine is also good—not too strong, and doesn't make you drunk. It's just too expensive... I can't afford it, I can't afford it! But none of that matters. What's most exciting today is that I gave that Li Yulang a good lesson. For a while now, I don't have to worry about the Huang family arranging a blind date for Sister E'er. With this buffer time, Big Brother should be able to find a way to gain a foothold in the Ministry of Industry. I'll try to find a way to help him get around the Huang family...

Huang family.

Gu Yanqing had already sent people to investigate the Huang family and Huang E'er.

That Huang An is just a small character, and he really has no other forces behind him.

"Big brother."

While Gu Yanqing was reading, Gu Yanhuan had already walked slowly into the study with a bowl of hot soup.

"Have some soup. I just made it."

Gu Yanhuan placed the soup bowl next to Gu Yanqing, and the brother and sister looked at each other.

Gu Yanhuan was slightly stunned.

today……

The eldest brother's eyes were indescribably calm, but very different from usual.

"Brother, are you...are you okay?"

Gu Yanhuan asked with some concern.

"I'm fine." Gu Yanqing smiled faintly, the smile reaching his eyes——

He's never been this good.
