Lu Yiping didn't know what it was like to see the old man, but when he walked into the imperial study, he stared at the emperor who was wearing a dragon robe and sitting high on the dragon chair.

There was no excitement in my heart, no fear, no fear of seeing the ancient emperor, the highest leader of the country, and only one thought in my mind.

It turned out that this was the emperor who forbade him to see his wife. He looked really...hideous!

However, people had to bow their heads under the eaves. Although Lu Yiping felt a little reluctant, he still recalled what he played in the TV series, and saluted the emperor nondescriptly.

Lu Yiping was full of complaints against the emperor, and the emperor also disliked him in various ways. Although Lu Yiping's appearance was passable, the emperor still disliked him.

Leaving aside whether Lu Yiping's appearance and status are worthy of the prince, the process of getting acquainted between Lu Yiping and Jiang Mingsheng made the emperor panic.

After Lu Yiping finished his nondescript salute, the emperor said, "What's your name? Where do you live? Do you have any fame?"

In fact, the emperor had sent someone to search for Lu Yiping in private long ago, but because the guide Lu Yiping found was from another country, the only thing the emperor could find out in a short time was the matter of Lu Yiping starting from Qingyuan Town. Never know.

"Return to the emperor, the little man Lu Yiping, who lives in the northern feudal kingdom, has no fame..." Lu Yiping replied calmly, neither salty nor insipid, nor enthusiastic.

"Fanguo?" The emperor was taken aback for a moment, and then he became even more angry. If he really married the prince to this person, if he had a child in the future, the blood would not be pure...

There was no expression on the emperor's face, "Lu Yiping, I feel relieved that you risked your life to escort the prince to Beijing."

"..." Lu Yiping didn't open his mouth, and he was relieved that he was not allowed to enter the palace to meet people. Who are you bluffing?

The emperor took a sip of tea and continued, "In addition to the previous rewards, I originally planned to give you an official rank, but you don't have any fame, so it's wrong to reward you like this..."

"I heard that you are a merchant who travels from south to north to make a living, so, in addition to the previous rewards, I have decided to give you the title of imperial merchant, and also reward you with a beautiful wife and three beautiful concubines..."

"Please take it back, Your Majesty!" Lu Yiping opened his mouth to refuse.

"..." The emperor sullenly.

Regardless of the emperor's expression, Lu Yiping raised his head without squinting and continued, "The Caomin and the prince are in love with each other, and they have already promised each other for life. Please the emperor marry Mingsheng to the Caomin!"

"Bold!" The beard on the emperor's mouth was raised. "How can my prince be married to you as a businessman? I think you will reward you for your merits in escorting the prince. Don't be ignorant..."

"If you are sensible, then accept my reward. If you don't, don't blame me for being rude!"

Lu Yiping's complexion changed, he continued to bow his hands, and his tone became a little cold, "Please take back your order..."

"Okay, okay, you troublemaker, come here, this person has offended Shengen, I will drag him out and behead him!"

The emperor stood up and stared at Lu Yiping full of murderous intent. How dare a peasant from a small foreign country dare to despise his prince and refuse his kindness. How bold.

Be patient and don't give rewards, but have other thoughts, behead this kid, and choose a good family for the emperor after a while, and this matter will pass like this after a long time.

"Wait a moment."

Hearing that the emperor was going to kill someone, the queen who was hiding behind the screen finally couldn't help but ran out, glanced at Lu Yiping, who also had an ugly face, walked to the emperor and whispered

"Your majesty, this man cannot be beheaded. If he dies, the emperor will not be able to explain..."

"Then what do you think? This trickster is really bold. If you don't eat a toast, you will have to drink as a fine. How can my prince think about it..."

"Of course he is not worthy of the emperor, but as you have seen these days, the emperor's thoughts are all on him." The queen sighed.

Thinking of Jiang Mingsheng, who was getting thinner and thinner after a month of returning to the palace, the queen felt distressed, looked at Lu Yiping who was neither humble nor overbearing, and nodded in her heart, secretly thinking that this man looks good.

Thinking of Jiang Mingsheng's thoughts again, the queen's heart moved, and she leaned into the emperor's ear to persuade him

"Your majesty, how about this, let him draw a big cake for the time being, let him retreat in spite of difficulties, so as to temporarily appease the emperor's heart..."

Hearing the queen's words, the emperor frowned and thought for a moment, "What big cake?"

"The imperial examination after March..."

The emperor raised his eyes, glanced at the queen, suppressed his anger, and nodded.

"Lu Yiping, listen, I will give you a chance now. After three months, the imperial examination will be held. I will allow you to take it directly. At that time, I will give the emperor to the head of the champion. If you win the first place, I will I will promise you the emperor!"

"No. [-] scholar..." Lu Yiping's face was a little unhappy. For him, the emperor's conditions were simply a big cake that would never be within his reach.

Not to mention that all the traditional Chinese characters are used here, he can't recognize a few of them, and the ancient examinations must include the Four Books and Five Classics, and he has never read them.

He is a modern person, and in this ancient time, he was no different from an illiterate. If he was asked to take the number one scholar exam, he couldn't even write a few words with a brush...

"I can't do what you said!" Lu Yiping was not arrogant, he knew very well that it was impossible for him to fulfill the conditions that the emperor said, and it would be useless to agree.

"If you can't do it, hmph, if you can't do it, don't blame me for not giving you a chance..." The emperor sneered and said to himself, he only raised this condition when he knew you couldn't do it.

"The conditions you mentioned are really unfair to me..." Lu Yiping's face was not very good, the emperor simply made things difficult for him on purpose.

"Your Majesty, let's not talk about whether I have the ability to be admitted to the No. [-] Scholar. Who will be the No. [-] Scholar? In the end, you have the final say."

"Then what do you think is fair, this is my world, of course I have the final say!"

"Your Majesty the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, this world must be decided by you, but since you are willing to give Caomin a chance, Caomin is very grateful, but, this opportunity, the condition that the emperor said, Caomin wants to change..."

Lu Yiping stared straight at the emperor and queen, and raised his voice, "Caomin has long heard that the Yunjin Kingdom is prosperous and powerful, and there are countless literati. is good at..."

"You want the grassroots to take the No. [-] Scholar Examination because you think that I am not worthy of the status of a prince, but the grassroots don't feel that there is anything humble about yourself... So, the grassroots want to change the conditions mentioned by the emperor, so I have three questions. , and the top three in the imperial examinations will answer..."

Before Lu Yiping finished speaking, the emperor rushed to talk, "Okay, I promise, if you have answered all your questions, you will get out of Yunjin Kingdom, and you are not allowed to mention the matter of marrying the prince!"

"That's fine, what you said, if no one can answer it, you marry Mingsheng to me..."

Lu Yiping was overwhelmed by the emperor, and his temper also came up, tnnd the stinky emperor, even if he answered it, so what, are you still not allowed to go back?When he collects enough jade, he will immediately take people away!

The emperor was obviously provoked by Lu Yiping, and now he was full of anger, feeling that Lu Yiping was really ignorant and arrogant.

Every year, the top three in the imperial examination are selected by thousands of people. They are all talented and beautiful, so how can they not even answer a tricky question?

The two stared at each other, both feeling angry...

The queen on the side was a little helpless, the emperor had such a violent temper, why did the unruly temper look so big, even the emperor dared to talk back!

Seeing the photo album that Lu Yiping had been holding all the time, the queen didn't recognize her, and her heart moved, she said, "What are you holding in your hand? But it's for the emperor's son?"

No matter what the queen said, she was also a person who came here, and after thinking about it for a while, she also knew what it meant that Lu Yiping had to bring an extra thing when he entered the palace.

Lu Yiping nodded, and handed over the things, "Well, please give this to Mingsheng..."

"You idiot, don't push yourself too hard!" The emperor said angrily, he dared to give and receive things privately in front of his own face, and he didn't take him seriously.

"Alright, alright, Your Majesty, isn't it just a thing..."

The queen pulled the emperor's clothes. At this moment, her emperor was still staying in the palace because the man was haggard. It was better to bring something to comfort him than to keep making people sad.

Aizi is eager, the queen's character is self-willed, and regardless of whether it is in line with etiquette, let the serving maid go down and get the things.

Seeing that the emperor's complexion was not very good, the queen paused, and quickly asked the eunuch to lead Lu Yiping out of the imperial study, so as not to make the emperor continue to be angry.

Compared with the emperor who disliked Lu Yiping, the queen didn't have much opinion when she saw him, she just cared about Lu Yiping's status as a merchant.

These days, Jiang Mingsheng told her a lot about the two of them, but the Queen's impression of Lu Yiping has changed.

What's more, the two are already husband and wife, if it is possible, there is nothing wrong with fulfilling the two...

After taking the photo album from the palace lady, the queen was ready to check and check to see if there was any problem.

When he opened the cover of the photo album and saw the vivid photos, his eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, look, this portrait is really well drawn... Oh, look, this is our emperor's son, look at this smile, I haven't seen him smile for a month..."

The corner of the emperor's eyes twitched, he took the photo album from the queen's hand, his eyes filtered through the photos, he was a little surprised that the photos were painted like real people.

After flipping through a few single photos of Jiang Mingsheng and seeing the unusually intimate group photo of the two, the emperor's face changed and he was furious

"This bastard, burn this portrait, take it and burn it!"

"No, it can't be burned...the emperor will be sad again..." The queen quickly grabbed the photo album, looked at the emperor's face, and hurried down the steps to run outside the imperial study.

"Your majesty, you can just rest. The concubine thinks that troublemaker is not bad. If he is really capable, the concubine decides to call him to the emperor to be his husband..."

"Queen, come back to me!"

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor gritted his teeth and shouted angrily. He had the illusion of being fooled. He stared at the back of the queen who was running faster and faster, and threw the memorial on the table all over the floor.
