Chapter 1938
1938 You can make any decision
“When you’re old enough, you can go to the Royal Academy. After six years, you can still take the imperial examination. It’s not like second uncle doesn’t know about your situation. He forced you to finish learning everything you needed to take the imperial examination before you reached the age. When you leave the Royal Academy, he will use another year to force you to prepare for the imperial examination. This is also possible.” Gu yingxue said.
“Do you think the imperial examination is that easy?” Gu Ren rolled his eyes at her and said, ” how about this? let’s bet on whether second uncle is willing to let me enter the Royal Academy next year! If he’s willing, you can give me a hundred taels. If he’s not, I’ll give you a hundred taels!”
“That’s crazy! Where did you get a hundred taels? Besides, the 100 taels in my hand is all I have. Dopey Gu, are you trying to swindle my money?” Gu yingxue glared at Gu Ren.
“Aiyo, I didn’t realize it when I was in the western lands, but this lady Xue ‘er is also quite pretty! The great Zhou’s water and soil really nurtures people. He was so dark and skinny in our western land, but after coming back, not only did he turn white, but he also gained weight. It looks really good now!” He lianyi nudged Cheng huaijin, who was beside him.
Cheng huaijin rolled his eyes at him and didn’t answer. However, he looked at Gu yingxue.
Gu yingxue did not notice it and was about to pull Gu Ren’s face, but Gu Ren slapped her away.
The siblings started to play.
Just as the dance ended, Grand Empress Dowager Xiao’s attention was on them. She chuckled and asked, ” “Is that Xiao Liu and Ying Xue?”
Gu yingxue was shocked when she heard the sound. She was not the descendant of the Grand Emperor and Empress Dowager. If the Grand Emperor and Empress Dowager saw her bullying her great-grandson, she would be doomed.
Gu Ren stood up and bowed.”Grand Empress Dowager, it’s me. I’m making a bet with big sister yingxue.”
The Empress Dowager looked at Gu Ren with interest, ” “Oh? A bet? What are we betting on?”
She liked all of her great-grandchildren, and the one she liked the most was this little cutie, Gu Ren. She had no choice. Gu Ren was really good at pleasing people. He could also write many interesting stories. He was very smart at a young age.
Gu yingxue stood up and did not know what to say. She could only look at Gu Ren.
hey, ah hai, don’t you think that this miss Xue ‘er looks clever and cute one moment, but in the next moment, she looks very silly? ” He lianyi whispered to Cheng huaijin.
“I don’t think so.” Cheng huaijin glanced at he lianyi and said in a low voice.
“AI, you, you’re really boring!” Sometimes, he lianyi even wanted to open Cheng huaijin’s brain to see what was inside it. He was actually not interested in pretty girls. It was too boring.
In just two sentences, Gu Ren had already told them the contents of the bet.
The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment, then she called out to Gu shouxin, ” “Second Gu, then tell this widow, are you willing to send little sixth Gu to the Royal Academy next year?”
Gu shouxin, who was called out, stood up calmly and said, ” “Grand Empress Dowager, I can’t make the decision.”
Uncle Gu waved his hand and said,”second brother, I can do it. I can do it.” You can make any decision for our children.”
Everyone seated,”hehe.”
As expected, Lord Gu was just like Majesty Kang and Lord Cheng’s character. He did not even care about his own child. It seemed that Lord Gu had a lot of power in the family!
Gu shouxin’s mouth twitched. the rule of the Royal Academy is that men are admitted at twelve. Gu Xiaoliu will only turn six this October.
