Chapter 2235: Do the Last Thing

There is a lot of commotion in the capital, and there are various theories.

Meng Yunzheng, who was at the center of the topic, had returned from the palace and was enjoying the filial piety of his nephew.

Little Song Le would knock his legs for a while, then pat his back for a while, as if Meng Yuncheng was tired after just one trip to the palace.

Xiao Huohuo followed suit, but after beating him for a while he became dissatisfied and crawled all over Meng Yunzheng's body.

Shu Yu came in with a basin of washed fresh strawberries and asked the two children to wash their hands. He took one and sat next to Meng Yunzheng. He smiled and said, "You feel more comfortable now. Today, Shopkeeper Yun heard about your refusal to serve. At that time, I was so shocked that I almost rolled down the stairs.”

Meng Yunzheng thought for a moment and said, "He should have been warned first."

"Then you couldn't have warned me. Mr. Qi and Uncle Yao were also frightened by you."

Apart from his own family and the Lu family, only the emperor and a few confidants knew about Meng Yunzheng's plan to go back and open an academy. Most of the others didn't know, they just thought it was a natural thing for him to become the top scholar and then start an official career. Who would have thought that he could do this?

"I will come to apologize in person someday."

Shu Yu saw two children running in after washing their hands, pouring out a small half of the strawberries from the basin, and letting them take the rest out to eat.

Xiao Huohuo grabbed this one with one hand and ignored the rest, as if two big strawberries were already a lot, and his mouth was filled with juice.

When there were only two of them left in the room, she asked, "Since you are no longer an official, you don't need to participate in other subsequent processes, right?"

"Well, there's no need to go. The emperor said that since I, the number one scholar, can't be the editor of the Hanlin Academy, he can only promote the next Jinshi. Tomorrow, an order should be issued to let Chu Qiuping be promoted from the sixth rank to the editor of the Hanlin Academy. . And Xie Bo, who ranked fourth, will become the editor. At that time, Chu Qiuping will lead the Jinshi to the Confucius Temple to perform the release ceremony."

As he spoke, he reached out to hold her hand, gently rubbed the back of it, and laughed softly, "We have finished all the things in the capital in the past few days, and then we can go back. It is now late March, we It will take a lot of time on the way back, and the wedding is in May, so we should hurry up."

Shu Yu's mouth twitched, "I'd say the time is set too early. It would be two months later." No, at least four or five months later, so that the weather is neither cold nor hot.

However, Meng Yunzheng suddenly said, "This time is just right. If it's too late, I'm afraid the marriage really won't happen this year."

Shu Yu was stunned for a moment, "How do you say this?"

Meng Yuncheng was silent for a moment, couldn't help but tighten his grip on her hand, and said with a wry smile, "The gentleman who calculated the wedding date for us was really right. He said that if May 20th doesn't work, then there will be trivial matters in the second half of the year. I can’t get rid of it, I have to wait until the second half of next year.”

Shu Yu remembered this, because the old lady made a decision on the spot when the fortune teller said it, without giving Shu Yu a chance to refute.

She also suspected that the fortune teller was talking nonsense.

Why, hearing what Meng Yunzheng said now, is there really an accident?

Shu Yu was shocked and asked in a low voice, "What happened?" Thinking that he had just come out of the palace not long ago, she frowned and guessed, "Does the Emperor have any objections?"

"It's not that I have any objections. The emperor asked me to handle the last thing for him."

"What is it?"
