After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 254 Be modest and study hard

Madam Ji immediately stood up and said, "Your Highness, I just heard it from hearsay."

"Since you heard it from others, you are so brave to pollute my mother's ears." Yuan Man picked up the teacup, lifted the lid and saw that there was tea inside, so he signaled the maid to change it.

"Madam Ji Chenghou, do you know what the law says about damaging my reputation?"

Madam Ji said in panic, "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have spread rumors."

The Queen glanced at Madam Ji, then looked at Yuan Man and said with a smile, "Stay in the palace for dinner before going back?"

Yuan Man smiled and shook his head, "No, mother, I still have things to deal with when I get back."

The Queen immediately said, "Just leave it to Xiao'er and the people below. Why do you still need to handle it yourself? Don't tire yourself out."

"No, I'm just sitting there listening." Yuan Man said, standing up and saying, "Mother, since there are so many ladies accompanying you, I will go back first."

"After the river sacrifice, my mother will stay at the Crown Prince's residence for a while."

"Okay, let's take the sedan chair and leave the palace." After the queen said this, she signaled the aunt in charge to make the arrangements.

"Okay, thank you, mother." Yuan Man bowed to her, nodded to the other ladies, and left.

One of the ladies laughed and said, "The Crown Princess really can't rest. She's not willing to take a moment off even when she's pregnant."

The queen smiled and said nothing.

When the other ladies saw this, they couldn't understand the queen's thoughts for a moment.

You could say that she doesn't value the Crown Princess, because when the Crown Princess was around, she always took care of her. But if you say that she values ​​her, she never responds when people praise the Crown Princess in front of her.

Yuan Man returned to the Prince's Mansion, and seeing that Yuan Yue and the others had not arrived yet, he went to take a nap in the afternoon.

Hongxiu came in and saw that she had woken up, so she helped her sit up, "Your Highness, Guan and her son are here to visit."

Yuan Man was surprised for a moment, but after thinking about it, he understood the reason, "Let's go to the reception room."

"Hongxiu, help me change my clothes and put on my makeup."

Her hair was loose at this time, and she couldn't meet guests without re-doing her makeup.

Yuan Man walked into the reception room, looked at Guan Yinyue and said with a smile: "Aunt has been in Kyoto for so long, why did you only come today?"

Guan Yinyue stood up and saluted, "Jinghong has only been here for a short time, so I stayed at home to accompany him for a while."

"Jinghong, come and meet Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."

Hu Jinghong stood up and saluted, "Hu Jinghong greets Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."

"No need to be polite, please sit down." Yuan Man looked him over and said, "Jinghong looks about fifteen or sixteen years old this year, right?"

"Yes, he is sixteen this year." Guan Yinyue nodded.

Yuan Man nodded. "You can take part in the imperial examination at the age of sixteen. You are a young genius. Are you ready?"

Guan Yinyue smiled and said, "He has been smart since he was young and works harder than others."

"His grandfather asked him to give it a try. He didn't expect him to pass the exam, but he just wanted to take it as a training."

"She's only sixteen years old, still young, no need to rush." ​​Yuan Man nodded in agreement.

Guan Yinyue glanced at Hu Jinghong, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Your Highness, I came here today to ask for a favor, allowing him to study in the Academy for a few days before the imperial examination."

Enter the School Supervisor.

Yuan Man didn't know much about the academy in Kyoto, but he knew a little bit about it. "Aunt, are you sure you want Jinghong to enter the academy?"

Guan Yinyue asked, "Is there something wrong with the Student Supervisor?"

Her words didn't sound like a disagreement, but rather a confirmation.

Yuan Man said: "Although I don't know much about the School Supervisor, I have heard a little bit about it. There are many young masters from aristocratic families who are stuffed into the School Supervisor, and the atmosphere is not very good."

"Someone recently staged a dangerous scene in there."

"Of course, there are good ones too. After all, there are many people who passed the Imperial College exam, which means there are some good points."

Guan Yinyue was silent. "That's right. The Imperial College is a national academy. All the noble families want to send their children there. There are people with all kinds of personalities."

He looked at Hu Jinghong and asked, "Jinghong, what about you? What do you think?"

Hu Jinghong thought for a moment and said, "I want to go. There are things I need to learn there. I'm just going to find what I need and won't have any conflicts with irrelevant people."

"Okay, I'll write a note for you and you can take it with you to report in." Yuan Man said as he asked someone to prepare writing materials.

Guan Yinyue pulled Hu Jinghong up and thanked him, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Yuan Man shook his head as he wrote, "I just wrote a post. The only one who can really help him is himself."

After it was written and stamped with the seal of the Prince's Palace, no one could look down on Hu Jinghong.

"Okay, Jinghong, be humble and study hard."

Hu Jinghong bowed and took the invitation, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Your Highness, Madam Su requests to see you." The butler said loudly while standing outside the hall.

Madam Su Shao, that must be Su Zhongyu’s wife.

"Welcome in."

Guan Yinyue saw this and said, "Since Your Highness has a visitor, we will take our leave first and meet again later when we have time."

"Okay, Tianxiang, please see Aunt Guan off." Yuanman stood up to see her off.

Guan Yinyue bowed and said, "Your Highness, please stay."

As they went out, they just happened to pass by Madam Su Shao.

"Ms. Su Zeng, greetings to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." There was a young lady following behind Madam Su.

Yuan Man sat in the main seat and looked at them before saying, "No need to be polite, please sit down. I wonder what Madam Su wants you to do by suddenly coming here?"

Madam Su glanced at the girl and said, "Your Highness has not come to visit since he returned to Kyoto. Today, by chance, I came to visit Your Highness for no other reason."

Yuan Man looked at the girl who had been looking at her. She recognized that this was one of the girls who came to greet her with another girl in Minglou.

"Who is this girl?"

"Your Highness, this is He Rui, the daughter of Chief He." Madam Su said cautiously.

Yuan Man's mind changed, and he asked, "Madam Su, you came to the Prince's Mansion because of this girl's request, right?"

Madam Su immediately raised her head, which had been lowered.

Seeing her eyes, Yuan Man smiled, "Just say it directly. You are Su Zhongyu's wife, and the cousin of the prince and me. You are in your own home, so why dare not say anything?"

He Rui became anxious and frantically winked at Madam Su.

Madam Su's eyes turned red, and she said boldly, "The He family threatened my brother with his official position, and I dare not disobey."

Yuan Man glanced at He Rui and asked, "What is your brother's official position?"

Madam Su Shao said, "The Shaodian Division of the Pharmacopoeia Department."

Yuan Man smiled, "If I remember correctly, the Shaodiansi official is a sixth-rank official."

"Is the He family the Minister of Personnel or the Prime Minister's assistant?"

Madam Su lowered her head and said, "The head of the He family is the chief of the Pharmacopoeia Department."

"Oh, when will the director of the Pharmacopoeia Bureau be able to dismiss officials privately?" Yuan Man looked at He Rui.

"Not to mention how high the Pharmacopoeia Director is, even if it's Prime Minister Yao or the Minister of Personnel, no one, even a prince or noble, can dismiss a sixth-rank official at will."

"Even if he is trying to trip up your brother and make him lose his job, it will be investigated by the Jufasi Department and then decided by Your Majesty."

"Madam Su, you didn't mention this to Zhong Yu, did you?"
