After Li Er returned to the palace, he quickly began to reform the imperial examination.
Just as Lin Xuan had guessed, the reform would definitely be blocked by many Conservatives, but he suppressed it with iron blood.
The more you stop me, the more I have to increase my strength.
However, this was a relatively long process and needed to be done gradually. Li Er did not rush it.
He followed Lin Xuan's words and added professional subjects to select talents. He added Ming history and Ming classics to support the Humble Class disciples so that they could participate in the imperial examination more easily. It was not as difficult as before.
At the same time, he also secretly set up supervision and investigation to prevent corrupt officials from entering the imperial examination system.
On the other side.
Purple Bamboo Court, a room on the second floor.
Lin Xuan had really been idle recently. Xu Hui had closed her doors and did not see him. The top-grade young woman had not come either. It was the same for the loli from a long time ago. This made him very sad.
He couldn't help but sigh. When could he be kept? When could he live off a woman in peace?
"Young Master Xuan, we have guests."
At this moment, the voice of the brothel madame came from outside.
This made Lin Xuan, who was lying on the bed, happy and jumped down.
Clang!
Then, he quickly walked over and opened the door. He was instantly dumbfounded.
Because the person who came was not a woman, but a man!
For a moment, the smile on Lin Xuan's face disappeared and was replaced by numbness.
"You're Lin Xuan?"
Zhangsun Chong came over in cotton clothes. When he saw Lin Xuan, his eyes were also shocked.
Although she was unwilling to admit it, she was indeed much more handsome than him.
The reason why he hid his identity this time was to see who this Lin Xuan was. He actually fell head over heels for the Chang Le he liked!
This made him very jealous. After all, he had liked Chang Le since he was young, but now he could only watch his beloved miss others!
"Have a seat."
Lin Xuan glanced at it and was not interested in receiving it at all.
He was speechless in his heart. Damn it, I'm a courtesan of a brothel. It's fine if there are two silly people in front of me. At least I'm old and won't be gossiped about.
Now, another young man with red lips and white teeth came. What was he trying to do?
"You?"
Lin Xuan's attitude directly made Zhangsun Chong a little unhappy. He immediately wanted to attack, but he still held back.
After all, he had concealed his identity. If outsiders found out, especially his father, wouldn't he skin him alive?
Then, he felt disdain in his heart. Did he think this person was so mysterious? He was rumored to be a god by outsiders, but now he was nothing more than this. He was arrogant, rude, and condescending.
What right does a mere brothel singer have to compete with me for Changle?
Then, Zhangsun Chong waved his sleeves. He felt that he had gained a lot today. At least he had seen through this person's true colors. This way, he could warn her in front of Chang Le.
Just as he was about to sit down cross-legged, he suddenly stopped.
His eyes were wide open, and his expression was a little ugly. He gritted his teeth.
Because he saw a painting hanging on the wall in the distance. Wasn't the person on it Chang Le?
How could this person have a portrait of Chang Le?
Could it be that Chang Le had secretly left the palace and come to this brothel?
Zhangsun Chong was shocked, but he rejected the idea. After all, Chang Le was a princess and was deeply loved by the Emperor. She would never do such a thing that would tarnish the reputation of the royal family.
In other words, this person must have deliberately peeped at Chang Le, most likely when he was out of the palace?
Zhangsun Chong became even more furious. The veins on his hands bulged.
Not only was this person arrogant and rude, but he was also extremely disgusting. How could he do such a dirty thing? He had to go back and tell Chang Le to stay away from this kind of person.
"Where did you get this portrait?"
Zhangsun Chong suppressed the anger in his heart and questioned.
"I drew it."
"Liar, you haven't even seen her, how can you draw?”
After Lin Xuan heard this, a thought-provoking expression appeared on his face. Then, he could not help but look at this young man and size him up.
"I say, aren't you a little interesting?”
"Does it have anything to do with you how I drew it? Or do you know the person in the painting?”
Immediately, Lin Xuan asked curiously.
It was simply strange. From the moment this person came in, he felt that something was wrong. He looked at him as if he was an enemy, as if he had f * cking cheated on his wife.
"I'm just curious."
Zhangsun Chong clenched his fists and replied in a suppressed tone.
Lin Xuan rolled his eyes at him when he heard this. Then, he drank a mouthful of tea and continued.
"The woman in the painting came to my place before, so I have a deep impression of her.”
Clang!
"Impossible!"
Zhangsun Chong was stunned. He stood up with a swoosh and almost flipped the table over.
He immediately shouted.
How could Changle come to this brothel? It was absolutely impossible!
"Why would I lie to you? There's no benefit to it."
"And in the past, I had a good conversation with her and even had intimate contact with her!”
