Chapter 295 Young Minister

Su Wan sat next to Madam Zhao, at the main seat.

Her eyes fell on the male guest. Tingyuan sat elegantly in the chair, his arms casually resting on the armrests, and the sea pattern embroidered with silver thread on his wide sleeves shone brightly.

The light from the window hit his mask, shining coldly, illuminating his deep eyes with a thin and calm look.

Most of the people sitting around him were high-ranking officials and elderly.

He was very eye-catching among the crowd.

Since ancient times, "only Jinshi can enter the Hanlin Academy, and only Hanlin can enter the cabinet."

Tingyuan was an exception. He was not a Jinshi. He was sent to the Hanlin Academy by the Regent at the age of thirteen. Now he is only twenty, and he is also pushed into the cabinet by the Regent.

Everyone dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

What's more, Tingyuan's methods were in the same vein as the Regent.

Although he was wild, he was capable and recognized by everyone.

However, there were also party struggles in the cabinet, and there was a ranking of high and low positions. Everyone wanted to become the next prime minister.

Su Wan noticed his gaze, and her cold eyes became gentle. She smiled slightly and turned away naturally.

Tingyuan's eyes were full of helplessness, his body relaxed, and he leaned lazily on the back of the chair, listening to the people around him talking to him, but his eyes fell on Su Wan. She was wearing a light red skirt, her long hair tied behind her head, and her whole body was as slender and flexible as a willow. Her calm and calm temperament made people ignore her outstanding appearance, as soft and comfortable as water.

He frowned, after a period of care, she was still too thin.

"Tingyuan, what do you think about the selection of the Minister of Personnel?" The second assistant asked tentatively.

Tingyuan lowered his eyes and pointed at the armrest with his fingertips. The cabinet does not control the Ministry of Personnel.

The status of the cabinet can suppress the six ministries, and the Ministry of Personnel among the six ministries is responsible for the appointment, assessment, promotion, demotion, and transfer of officials in the Great Zhou. If the chief assistant of the cabinet also serves as the Minister of Personnel, he will almost have all the officials in the Great Zhou in his hands.

Everyone in the cabinet wants to place their own people in the Ministry of Personnel as ministers.

He is different, he wants to take the position himself.

"There is no rush for this matter. The Minister of Personnel will take nearly a year to take office. We can slowly select the right candidate."

"Tingyuan is right." Xu Cifu smiled and casually mentioned a person: "Cao Guanglin is the Minister of Guanglu Temple, with outstanding abilities. His brother is Cao Guangyi, the governor-general of Liangjiang. No matter from which aspect, he is suitable for this position. What do you think?"

"The emperor has the final say on this matter." Tingyuan smiled slightly: "What do you think, Xu Cifu?"

Xu Cifu's smile froze for a moment, and he said: "We are just talking about it. The final conclusion will naturally be heard by the emperor."

Tingyuan picked up the wine glass with two fingers and raised his glass to Xu Cifu, ending the conversation.

Xu Cifu's face turned blue. How could he not know that Tingyuan was pretending to be confused?

Tingyuan ignored Xu Cifu. There were many people toasting, and he dealt with them.

After drinking several glasses of wine, he looked up at Su Wan, only to see her holding her cheek and staring at him without blinking. Her clear eyes fell on the wine glass in his hand, and her slender eyebrows frowned. Then she leaned her head to the ear of Old Lady Zhao and said something, and left the table.

He smiled, put down the wine glass, rubbed his eyebrows, and said to the person who came to toast: "I feel a little unwell, I will go to rest first."

"Oh, what a coincidence. Doctor Su is also in the Zhao Mansion!" The man said to the old master Zhao who came over: "Master Zhao, the young cabinet minister is unwell, please send someone to ask Doctor Su to see him."

Master Zhao remembered that Tingyuan was not in good health, and did not dare to neglect him. He hurriedly asked someone to send him to the wing room to rest, and arranged for someone to invite Su Wan.

Tingyuan went down to the wing room with the help of his entourage, and leaned on the soft couch, unable to bear the alcohol.

Seeing this, the servants of the Zhao Mansion immediately went to bring the sobering soup, fearing that something bad would happen to the noble in the Zhao Mansion.

Only Mo Li and Ting Yuan were left in the wing room.

After a while, Su Wan came.

She opened the door without closing it, and walked towards the man in the room.

He leaned lazily and casually on the couch, his sleeves hanging down, his eyes moving from her willow-like waist to her elegant white neck, and then resting on her cherry red lips.

Su Wan stared at his clear eyes for a while, probably because he had drunk wine, so they were particularly clear.

She pursed her lips, curled her lips and smiled: "I put on lip balm, this color looks good?"

The man didn't say anything, staring at her with burning eyes, which made Su Wan uncomfortable all over. She moved closer to him, kneeling on the couch with one leg, and the moment she bent her waist, her flexible lines were highlighted. His Adam's apple slid, and he held her hand that wanted to reach out, and directly pressed her whole body on the couch.

Mo Li went out very tactfully and closed the door.

The light in the room dimmed. Su Wan reached out and took off the mask on his face. Before she could see his face clearly, he pressed down and kissed her deeply.

Su Wan was stunned for a moment and reached out to hug his neck.

The man's slender fingers held her face and rubbed it into her hair, licking her lips carefully, directly and passionately, and more deeply lingering.

After a while, the two separated.

Su Wan panted slightly, with tears in her eyes, as if she was moved.

His dark eyes became darker, sharp and aggressive. Su Wan's breathing became lighter when he looked at her, and her cheeks were slightly red. "Huaizhi, are you drunk?"

She touched his forehead, without any doubt, if it was at home now, what would happen next.

Usually he was very restrained and did not break the last line of defense.

"I'm not drunk." Gu Huaizhi hugged her tightly, soft as water, but too thin. He pecked her lips a few times and said in a low voice: "Are you wearing makeup today?" His fingers gently stroked her fair and delicate face, and the light red permeated layer by layer, as if the peach blossoms in March were beautiful.

He seemed to like it very much and kissed her cheek again.

"I'm wearing makeup." Su Wan shrank her neck to avoid him, thinking that he was drunk. If it was usual, he would not be so close to people: "You can't drink too much, drink less outside. If you can't refuse the social activities, don't leave people around you."

"Yeah." Gu Huaizhi intimately pressed his nose against hers, and his bright eyes looked at her deeply: "I'm not drunk, I'm drunk when I see the lady."

Su Wan's heart trembled, and she kissed the corner of his lips, and he hooked his lips and teeth.

...

Mo Li was like a door god guarding the door. The people from the Zhao Mansion brought sobering soup, but he blocked it.

Tang Haoyue, who was in the corner, stared at the closed door, wishing she could punch two holes in it. She saw Su Wan go in with her own eyes, and took the initiative to kneel on the couch to seduce Tingyuan!

What was hateful was that Tingyuan did not push her away, but accepted the good fortune that was delivered to his door!

A woman as fickle as Su Wan was not worthy of Tingyuan at all!

A fierce look flashed in Tang Haoyue's eyes. Since she was so cheap, she should continue to rot and stink!
