Chapter 38

The family of three didn't have a lot of luggage, and the manager wanted Qin Mujun to go back in a grand car with the champion, but Qin Mujun refused and let them go first, and Mo Qing and the others walked slowly.

"You are the number one scholar! You are the number one scholar, and everyone in the world should know about your success!" said the steward.

"I'm almost not used to your big fanfare, so go back first." Qin Mujun persuaded with a smile.

Mo Qing and Ting Yun added fuel to the scene, and finally the person in charge had to reluctantly lead a large group of people back empty-handed.Of course, in order not to make people laugh, he went back to the Zhuangyuan mansion with drums and gongs. There were many people watching along the way, but they all returned home disappointed because they couldn't see the appearance of the Zhuangyuan.

"From today onwards, you will be the No. [-] Scholar!" Ting Yun said.

"What are you talking about, there will be a new No. [-] scholar in the next exam, and I will forget about my glory in a month." Qin Mujun said.

"It doesn't matter if he is the number one scholar or not, as long as Junjun works hard in the court, he will be safe and sound." Mo Qing said.

"Look at the way you two are singing together, tsk tsk tsk... yummy!" Ting Yun ran away after finishing speaking.

In the end, Qin Mujun and Mo Qing ate, played and inquired all the way with their luggage on their backs, and they arrived at Zhuangyuan Mansion almost after dinner.This place is located in a not very prosperous area of ​​the capital, but there are quite a few dignitaries, most of whom are wealthy businessmen.

"My lord is here, hurry up and welcome!" The butler waited enthusiastically outside the gate with the people who are currently called servants in the Zhuangyuan's mansion.

There were quite a few people passing by to watch the fun, basically looking at Qin Mujun, the legendary No. [-] scholar.

"A stupid book is born into a phoenix!" Ting Yun trotted into the mansion.

Qin Mujun looked at the row of people and said with a smile, "So many people? Is the house big?"

"Big enough, if you want to bring your family to the capital to live together, it won't be a problem!" said the housekeeper.

"Okay, let's all go in first." Qin Mujun spoke, but no one moved.So the scholar sighed, and Mo Qing entered the row of people first, and then followed him into the door.

The butler ordered his servants to do what they should do, and he led Qin Mujun and Mo Qing around the Zhuangyuan Mansion.Knowing that the relationship between Mo Qing and Qin Mujun was not easy, the housekeeper arranged Mo Qing's room in the courtyard of the champion, as did Ting Yun's.

"The housekeeper is so capable, everything is ready, I don't think I need to worry about it." Qin Mujun said.

"Master, how can you say that, you will have to see all the big and small things in the house in the future." The housekeeper said.

"Ah."

Everything in Zhuangyuan's mansion is fully prepared, and these servants should also be given by the palace, Qin Mujun thought, it's a bit inappropriate not to have a close friend around him, and it's really worrying that the people in charge of the house are people he doesn't know well.

After the housekeeper left, Qin Mujun took Mo Qing to discuss:

"As an official in the court, you have to be surrounded by people who are not worthy of your trust." Qin Mujun said seriously.

"En." Mo Qing nodded seriously.

"I'll be in charge of the court affairs from now on, and you can take care of the family affairs, Mo Qing, for me, okay?"

"Isn't the master the only one who can take care of family affairs?" Mo Qing said.

"Aren't you the one?" Qin Mujun smiled helplessly.

"Me? What is Junjun?"

"Me too, but you can take care of everything at home, including me."

Mo Qing understands that her right now is like that of Jin Rong, she is the master of the house!

"Then can I let Junjun accompany me every day?" Moqing stared at Qin Mujun with bright eyes.

Qin Mujun looked at it and felt weak: "Of course I can't be with you when I'm doing things, but I will cherish the time with you when I go home."

"Okay..." Mo Qing was a little frustrated, maybe Qin Mujun would be very busy after becoming an official.

"Then Moqing, you are the head of the house now, you need to learn how to take care of it? This is our home, if you know how to take care of it, that is to say..." Qin Mujun didn't know how to express his thoughts, it felt a bit strange, Mo Qing It's not a woman, it's a little bit about housekeeping... Sigh.

"Pfft... I understand, you don't have to worry about Junjun. When Rong'er was in charge of the house, I didn't notice it. When I was in the mountains, I didn't do all the big and small things in the house alone. Sometimes I had to prepare meals for the master. Receiving a friend, and helping him to reject his little lover... I bought those things by myself during the wedding. I understand." Mo Qing said.

Qin Mujun felt sore in his heart for some reason, and suddenly hugged Mo Qing passionately: "Mo Qing, it's so good to meet you."

"Isn't that the same thing as daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea in the world? I will definitely make it well." Mo Qing hugged Qin Mujun's waist.

"Ah."

After dinner, Qin Mujun and Mo Qing took a bath together and rubbed each other's backs. Qin Mujun helped Mo Qing finish rubbing first, but when Mo Qing helped Qin Mujun, his hands were dishonest and touched Qin Mujun's body. The scholar couldn't take it anymore.

After hastily washing and getting them cleaned up, he extinguished the candles and rolled onto the bed with Mo Qing in his arms.

Qin Mujun likes this bed very much, it is big and soft, I don't know how many layers of mattresses have been put on it, but it is really comfortable.

"Will Junjun be very busy in the future?" Mo Qing touched Qin Mujun's face repeatedly.

"Sure, new officials have a lot to learn." Qin Mujun nodded.

"Well, don't be too tired."

Then there was some cloud and rain, and the night was still very long.

The next day Qin Mujun got up as soon as the rooster crowed.

Today is the day to enter the palace to be appointed as an official, Qin Mujun is a little nervous.

Qin Mujun had just put on his clothes when someone knocked on the door.When he opened the door, he saw two girls following the butler, looking at him with a smile.

"It's so early, what's the housekeeper doing?" Qin Mujun asked.

"My lord, I'll wash and change your clothes for you. You must wear the number one scholar's uniform," said the housekeeper.

"Then give me the clothes, I'll do it myself, and I'll fetch water after I wash up."

The butler's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly said, "My lord, you're not doing well, let us serve you."

"No need, I don't like being served by others the most in my life, so I'll do it myself." Qin Mujun wanted to take the tray from the girl.

The girl shook her head and stepped back.Qin Mujun said: "It's okay, just give it to me, I really don't like to be served."

The girl looked at the butler's eyes, then handed the tray to Qin Mujun.

"Then I'll ask the kitchen to make breakfast for you," said the housekeeper.

"Okay, I'm sorry." Qin Mujun nodded politely.

After they left, Qin Mujun sighed and closed the door.

In winter, the sky brightens late and gets dark early, and the sky at this time is no different from that at night.Mo Qing was still lying on the bed and fast asleep.

Qin Mujun changed his clothes behind the screen, sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Mo Qing, until the housekeeper came to call for someone, then leaned over and whispered in his lover's ear: "Mo Qing, I have an appointment in the palace."

"Hmm... um... come back early." Mo Qing turned over and continued to sleep.

Qin Mujun smiled and tucked Mo Qing in the quilt and left.

The butler led Qin Mujun to the side hall for breakfast, and then he and Qin Mujun got into the carriage and went to the palace together.

"Don't let the kitchen make so many meals in the future, and if you don't eat, don't waste so much." Qin Mujun said.

"That's no problem, my master will be a clean and honest adult in the future." The housekeeper said seriously.

"May I ask your surname?"

"My surname is Li Minghan, you can call me Uncle Li."

"Uncle Li, do all etiquette in the officialdom need to be so respectful?"

"Of course not. The officialdom is unavoidably dangerous. Among the officials, you need to be so respectful to the adults who are older than you. You can't be lenient to the younger ones. You need to be strict, but you have to learn to give sweets."

"You were assigned to me by the palace"

"It's His Majesty."

"Oh? Your Majesty?"

"I am someone close to the Holy One, but I really don't know why the Holy One sent me to take care of you, but I will definitely try my best."

"...According to you, the Holy One knows me, but I have never seen it before? What does the Holy One look like? Tell me and listen to me."

"Uh...the Holy Majesty has his own reasons for doing this, take your time, you can see the Holy Majesty in a while, and then we can see if it's all right."

"it is good."

The carriage was bumpy, and it was snowing again when entering the palace. Civil and military officials were guarding outside the main hall, one group was this year's candidates, and the other group were of course old officials.

When the number one scholar got out of the car, many people looked this way. All the people who were selected for the roll call just now were all there. The only difference is that the number one scholar did not show up. The officials will inevitably have some doubts in their hearts. Today is a big day for the officials. Master is said to be talented, but he can't be so ignorant.

"My lords are well, I'm Qin Mujun." Qin Mujun bowed.

Just now Uncle Li said that it was a bit late to go today, and the officials had already arrived at this time, so he didn't know the etiquette.

"The No. [-] Scholar is very impressive." The speaker was Lin Ju, a second-rank official of the Chaozhong Zheng.

Qin Mujun's heart sank when he heard this, and then he smiled and said, "Master Lin is flattering you."

Uncle Li had already shown the list of officials to Qin Mujun when he was in the carriage just now, with the portraits and various materials of each adult attached to it, ranked according to their status, and this Lin Ju was ranked fifth.

Liu Shangshu looked at Qin Mujun, feeling a little worried.

"It's okay, as long as the Holy Majesty likes it." Lin Ju turned around and continued chatting with the adults who were traveling with him.

Qin Mujun looked at Liu Shangshu, exchanged glances and waited for each other.
