2407 Cant be trifled with

No, Royal grandmother, you havent even met Zheng Qiu, have you? Why do you like that child? Did Enzi take a fancy to it? The Emperor asked in bewilderment.

That silly boy, he cant even tell if shes a girl or a boy. The Empress Dowager could not help but laugh.

Imperial grandmother, quickly tell your grandson, what is going on? Your grandson is very curious! In front of the Grand Empress Dowager, when talking about family matters, the Emperor would always be like a child.

Youre already in your forties, why are you still acting like a child? The Grand Empress Dowager looked at the Emperor helplessly.

However, she still told the Emperor about what Gu en had said about Zheng Qiu.

Gu Xin and Gu si did not say anything to the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager was the one who could tell. Gu en was really bad at hiding her emotions.

Perhaps it was because he did not know that Zheng Qiu was a girl, so he acted as if he was telling his family that he had made a good friend.

The young mans thoughts could be seen through with a glance.

Hahahahaha, en Zi is just like his father! Imperial grandmother, grandson is afraid that when en Zi enters the first rank, even if he has the ability, grandson will not want him to be the top scorer. The Emperor was overjoyed.

The Grand Empress Dowager glared at the Emperor.

Im just joking, your grandson is just joking. This grandson will not play around with the imperial examination, so Imperial grandmother can rest a.s.sured. The Emperor immediately became serious.

We cant play around. although Enzi is the eldest grandson of your Royal uncles family, you cant control the examiners. You can do whatever you want. If he gets into the first rank, you cant give him the top rank just because hes the grandson of your Royal uncle. Everything must be done according to the rules and be convincing. The Empress Dowager said seriously.

Yes, Imperial grandmother! Your grandson will remember your teachings. The Emperor sat up straight and replied respectfully.

Zhao er, The Grand Empress Dowager looked at the emperors current state and could not help but think of his childhood, when he had even called out his nickname.

Grandmother. The Emperor was stunned for a moment as he looked at the Grand Empress Dowager.

Time really flies, our familys Zhao er has already grown so big. But grandmother is still as meddlesome as before. Is Zhao er annoyed with grandmother? Grand Empress Dowager Xiao waved her hand, signaling for the Emperor to step forward.

The Emperor walked over and sat beside Grand Emperor and Empress Dowager. Actually, he really wanted to sit on a small stool like when he was young, his head leaning on Grand Emperor and Empress Dowagers legs.

However, he was already forty years old, and the Grand Empress Dowager was also getting on in years.

He could only hold the Empress Dowagers hand and said with utmost seriousness, Grandmother, its a good thing that youve been by Zhao ers side all these years, otherwise the great Zhous rivers and mountains wouldnt be so prosperous. Zhao er would never despise grandmother. Zhao er hoped that grandmother would always be there, so that when Zhao er was hot-headed, she could point out a clear path for Zhao er. The great Zhous territory was not Zhao ers, but the ye familys. They had been relying on grandmother to protect it for the past few dynasties. Grandmother is the hero of the ye family and also the hero of the great Zhou.

The Grand Empress Dowager smiled and shook her head,you stinky brat, youre always sweet when youre little. When you were young, there were many times when I couldnt bear to see you study hard alone. However, he had no other choice. Zhao er, you did it in the end. You are the Son of Heavens mandate, you should be the Emperor of the great Zhou, the one chosen by the heavens, not the one chosen by grandmother.
