Quick Wear: Is the Lord God showing double standards again today?
106 Emperor Development Strategy 31
"Sanlang, you are so mean. It took you so long to come to see me. Am I not your best brother?" The boy, who was still not tall enough, raised his hand and hooked the shoulder of the man who was half a head taller than him.
"Zijin, you've been busy since you came back. I'll find you as soon as I'm done." Su Junhuai bent down to make it easier for Mu Zijin to pick him up.
Mu Zijin felt like she was hit hard. "I'm not saying, why are you so much taller than me after going out? Do you have any secret?"
The whole world is growing taller behind him, he hates it
"You are only eighteen, you can still grow taller." Su Junhuai led his people to sit down in the same private room as before, and nothing had changed.
Mu Zijin then let Su Junhuai go and muttered, "Can I be taller than Uncle Li?"
Su Jun thought about Li Gongqing's height of about 187cm, and then looked at his friend who was just about to step over 170cm. It didn't matter, he could still grow...
"I heard that you became the Minister of Rites?" Su Junhuai did not expect that his friend would take this position at such a young age. As for who told him, it was self-evident.
When Mu Zijin mentioned this, he immediately raised his chin and said with a smug look, "That's right, I was the third place winner in the imperial examination last year."
If you don't know him, you might think he is the top scholar. In recent years, the capital has been recruiting talents, and many talented people have come to take the imperial examinations. It is already very good to be able to pass the exam in third place.
"Then why are you thinking of going to the Ministry of Rites?" Su Junhuai stretched out his hand and flicked the childish ghost who was still showing off.
There is a rule in the Qian Kingdom that the top three candidates in the imperial examination can choose their own positions. This is to encourage them to be motivated and choose a position that they think is suitable based on their understanding of themselves.
Except for the Ministry of Rites, which doesn't have many important days and doesn't need to be too busy, other ministries are very busy. Mu Zijin thinks he doesn't have the ability and the mind to deal with it. The Ministry of Rites is better, and the Minister of Rites is an old friend of his father, so he won't make things difficult for him.
Mu Zijin said, "Of course, it's to personally handle your enthronement ceremony and your coming-of-age ceremony. Fortunately, we chose the same day, otherwise the Ministry of Rites would be really busy."
"You don't seem to be very busy," Su Junhuai ruthlessly punctured his friend's words.
There are less than three days left for the grand ceremony, and Mu Zijin can still come here with him so leisurely to listen to books and have meals. The Minister of Rites is really worried about him. I guess his hair, which was already half white, has turned completely white.
"Isn't this worry?" Mu Zijin held up his cheeks with worry. It was rare for the sun to suddenly set.
There are still things that Mu Zijin is worried about, Su Junhuai is interested in "talking about it"
Mu Zijin didn't care about his good brother's gossipy expression, and exhaled a breath of foul air, "Uncle Li has someone he likes..."
"That's not normal. Brother Li is already 28 years old this year. Normally, he should have been married at his age. It's understandable that he has someone he likes." Su Junhuai noticed something and observed Mu Zijin's expression.
Mu Zijin wanted to cry but had no tears. "But I don't know why I don't want to have an aunt, and I don't want him to have someone he likes. If he gets married, will he not be able to take me to eat the crispy cakes at Lao Li's on the street, or take me to the mountains to watch the sunset, and even more so, he can't take me to catch fireflies?"
Speaking of which, the little sun started to turn cloudy and it was about to rain. The corners of my lips that usually smiled drooped, and my eyes were red as if I was about to cry in the next second.
In fact, he and Li Gongqing were childhood sweethearts. Li Gongqing watched him grow up. Li Gongqing treated him very well and even relied on him a little.
He never thought that Li Gongqing would get married, nor did he think that there would be other people around Li Gongqing. He always felt that no one was worthy of Li Gongqing.
Su Junhuai was a little at a loss. Why did he start crying while talking?
"Don't cry, if Brother Li sees you, he will think I'm bullying you." Su Junhuai touched his head. Li Gongqing had been in the Dragon and Tiger Army since he was a child. He was the orphan of a subordinate of Mu Haoxuan. He had practiced martial arts since he was a child. Su Junhuai had never won against him.
"I just don't want Uncle Li to get married. If he gets married, he won't want me anymore." Mu Zijin sobbed. The emotions that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly burst out and she couldn't hold them back.
Su Junhuai had no choice but to pat his back and hand him a handkerchief. He didn't know how to start. He knew that Mu Zijin was the one who was most attached to Li Gongqing and also depended on him, even more than his other two brothers.
He somewhat understood Mu Zijin's thoughts, because he was also raised by Nanfeng and was very dependent on Nanfeng. If Nanfeng told him one day that someone he liked was going to get married, he would also collapse and would not be able to bear it. He didn't even dare to think about what he would do.
There were even things hidden in the house that the blacksmith had made. He didn't know why he did that, but he just felt that if Nanfeng wanted to leave one day, all he could do was lock the man in his house so that he couldn't go anywhere.
Although he knew that if Nanfeng really wanted to leave, he couldn't stop him.
"Zijin, do you... like Li Gongqing?" Su Junhuai asked hesitantly.
Mu Zijin had tears on her eyelashes. She picked at each one with her fingers and said, "I like him. He is Uncle Li. I like him the most, but I also like my father, mother, two brothers, and..."
"I'm not talking about the kind of love that comes from family," Su Junhuai interrupted him and said helplessly, holding his forehead.
"What is that?" Mu Zijin looked at Su Junhuai in confusion.
Su Junhuai looked at his innocent good brother. How could he have believed such an emotionally dull explanation of love? Although it was indeed he who untied the knot in his heart,
"I just want to be his wife," Su Junhuai said bluntly.
Mu Zijin obviously hadn't thought about this question. Can two men get married? He didn't know and had never seen it before, but when he thought about getting married with Li Gongqing, he didn't find it difficult to accept.
"I don't know..." Mu Zijin shook her head
"If he marries someone else, can you accept it? He will love that person very much, pamper him, and treat him well with all his heart," Su Junhuai asked.
"No!" Mu Zijin retorted in panic. It was obvious that these were all special cases for him by Li Gongqing. He would not allow anyone else to be treated like this, nor did he want Li Gongqing to transfer his kindness to another person.
Mu Zijin heard his second brother say this morning that Li Gongqing seemed to be meeting some girl. Could it be that the girl Li Gongqing liked was her? No, he had to ask clearly.
He has enough time to think clearly about his feelings for Li Gongqing, but the premise is that Li Gongqing has no lover, he must find him.
"Sanlang, I have something to do. You eat first and then we'll get drunk together." Mu Zijin stood up suddenly, almost scaring Su Junhuai.
After the people left, he shook his head and said, "Zijin, I can only help you up to this point. This table of food is wasted. He didn't have much appetite, so he asked the waiter to share these with the beggars."
Then I walked on the street and accidentally saw a stall selling candied haws. I paused for a moment and walked over to buy a bunch. Looking at the red haws in my hand, I felt happy.
When he was young, Nan Feng would use candied haws to comfort him whenever he was angry, just like coaxing a child, although he was indeed a child at that time.
Su Junhuai took a bite and it was a little sour, not as sweet as the one Nanfeng bought for him.
Once his thoughts drifted away, they could not be retrieved. He missed Nanfeng. It turned out that no matter how old he was, he could always get patience and favor from Nanfeng.
It is because of the south wind that he can fall in love with this devastated world again and see that the scenery of this world can be beautiful.
