Chapter 20 Grandfather, You Are About to Fall

The master of the Liu family has always been cautious.

Especially after coming to the capital, his daughter entered the harem and had a prince, the master of the Liu family was even more low-key, not wanting to affect the future of his daughter and grandson because of his own mistakes.

He refused to accept money given to him as a tribute.

He was a fifth-rank official in the Imperial College, and he never came late or left early.

How could such a responsible and honest official be stupid!

[Ah, my grandfather looked at me with a broad forehead and a nose like a gallbladder, and he looked very smart. ]

[Who would have thought that the evaluation of my emperor father was just a word of stupidity! ]

The master of the Liu family stared.

Nonsense.

This must be nonsense!

The master of the Liu family forgot to get on the carriage, and his legs were stiff.

Old Mrs. Liu had been sitting in the carriage for a long time. At this time, through the curtain, she saw the stagnant and stunned look of the master Liu.

At the same time, she also heard the voice of her granddaughter, the little princess.

The carriages and sedan chairs of the harem blocked the position of the lantern shop in front.

Old Madam Liu couldn't help looking over there.

My daughter and the little princess are inside, they are close, and the little princess's voice can be heard.

Did the master hear it?

[Alas, every time the emperor father wants to give my grandfather a chance to promote, he wants to give my mother and fifth brother a decent face, but my grandfather never seizes it. ]

[After so many times, my grandfather gave him an impression of being clumsy and dull. ]

Master Liu: "???"

This must be the emperor's problem, not his problem!

When did the emperor give him a chance to promote?

After he entered the capital, he worked as an editor in the Hanlin Academy for a period of time, and then was sent to Lingcheng County Magistrate. Three years later, he was transferred to the Imperial College in the capital to teach students who would enter the Hanlin Academy in the future.

Is this considered an opportunity given by the emperor to promote?

But he seized it all!

He worked hard in the Imperial College and assisted the Imperial College's chief priest without any mistakes!

Where is stupid? Where is stupid!

"Huizhi, how do I think I am doing as an official?"

Master Liu couldn't figure it out, so he asked his wife first.

Old Madam Liu had been to Lingcheng with him and returned to Beijing with him.

When Master Liu had nothing to do, he would talk to Old Madam Liu about the official duties he encountered while on duty.

His wife knew best how he was doing!

After all, when they got married, he was still a poor scholar. After years of mutual support, Master Liu was used to telling Old Madam Liu everything.

When he encountered difficulties, he would ask his wife's opinion.

Of course, he didn't necessarily listen.

He felt that she was wrong several times behind her back.

"Huizhi, tell me honestly, have I made any mistakes in Lingcheng and the Imperial College?"

Master Liu felt that he would never let down any citizen in his life.

He was worthy of his ancestors and his descendants!

The emperor had no vision!

Old Lady Liu was originally anxious when she heard her granddaughter say that the master had missed several opportunities and wasted the emperor's face for the fifth prince's mother's family.

But when she heard the master ask this, she couldn't help but laugh while sitting in the carriage.

Can the old man also hear the little princess's voice?

The old man is indeed not the smartest one!

After getting married, he took the imperial examination three times and spent ten years to pass the imperial examination, and he was ranked at the bottom of the batch of imperial examinations.

"Well... it's okay."

But fortunately, he works seriously and wholeheartedly for the benefit of the people.

Although his writing skills and understanding are average, he is down-to-earth and hardworking.

Old Lady Liu didn't want to discourage her master's character, but thinking of the importance of her granddaughter's warning, she sat up straight in the carriage in an instant.

"Master, did you hear any sound?"

"No!"

"Nonsense, I didn't hear anything!"

Master Liu refused to admit to the nonsense.

But when he spoke, he was out of breath, and his eyes could not help but look at the emperor and empress's ceremonial carriage that had passed by in front of him.

Then, he moved to the dark purple harem sedan chair closest to them.

Master Liu's eyes were slightly choked.

The voice from outside that day called him grandfather, so cute and pleasing.

Could it be the little princess that his daughter gave birth to not long ago?

In an instant, the embarrassment on Master Liu's face disappeared, and looking at the dark purple harem sedan chair, his eyes were full of eagerness and kindness.

He hasn't seen the little princess yet.

On the third day of the third month and the full month, the wife can go to the palace to see her daughter and grandson, but he, a foreign man, cannot go to the harem.

The voice just now was so childish and childish, his precious little granddaughter must be a beautiful and lovely child.

What nonsense? No.

His granddaughter is very well behaved.

Thinking of this, the master of the Liu family could not help but look at the emperor's procession in the front.

It must be the emperor's fault!

"Master, honest advice is unpleasant to the ear. You have to listen to what you should listen to."

The old lady of the Liu family said earnestly.

She took one look at him and knew that his problem had come up again.

In addition to being too cautious, he is also stubborn.

Most men who read books have this problem. They will not cry until they see the coffin. They just refuse to admit their mistakes and think they are the best in the world!

Mr. Liu glared, "You, you heard it too?"

Old Lady Liu nervously lifted the curtain of the car, "Go in and talk."

They have to wait for the car from the palace to drive over before they can set off.

The cars from the official residences are now parked on the small road waiting.

Mr. Liu suppressed the surge in his heart and nodded.

"In short, Huizhen, I am not stupid."

"Those words are not credible."

He didn't think about what kind of magic his granddaughter brought to reincarnation, and was still entangled in the fact that the emperor thought he was stupid.

It's really impossible to pull it back even with eight oxen. No wonder the emperor doesn't like it!

Old Lady Liu wanted to laugh angrily.

Just when she was about to object, the soft and cute voice of the little girl came again.

[Today, we went to Qiushan to worship. The emperor's father attached great importance to the worship ceremony because of the earth dragon turning over. ]

[Whoever makes a mistake today will be a hurdle in his heart that he cannot clear. ]

[But it just so happened that my grandfather fell flat on his face not long after the emperor's carriage passed by. ]

[It doesn't matter if he falls on horseback or gets hit. But my grandfather can trip over his own feet when walking on flat ground. His hands and feet are so uncoordinated, which is embarrassing. If he misses the winter festival, he will leave a bad impression on the emperor father again! ]

Master Liu: "?"

Lady Liu was very nervous and immediately leaned out of the carriage curtain, "Zhang San, you support the master."

Zhang San is their servant.

Master Liu was furious. How could he fall flat on his face?

Just thinking about it, Xu Jijiu from the Imperial College leaned out of the carriage next to him and called him, "Brother Wenchang, get on my carriage. We will discuss things while walking."

Master Liu immediately put aside his humiliation, bowed to Xu Jijiu, and walked towards his carriage.

"Madam, I'll go over there..."

As he walked, he turned back and told Madam Liu.

But before he finished, he felt his feet slip!

He lost weight and the sky in front of him turned upside down!

"Master - be careful!" Madam Liu was so anxious that she almost shouted.

But in a split second, Zhang San, the servant who had just been ordered to help the master, grabbed the falling Master Liu!

Master Liu barely stood up and didn't fall flat on his face.

[Aww, my grandfather really fell...]

Master Liu: "!"

[Huh, fortunately he was helped. My grandfather was wise and brought my attentive grandmother out today... Huh, I'm saved. ]

Master Liu's face suddenly turned red and white.

It really came true!

Master Liu looked at the imperial carriage in disbelief.

But just as he helped Zhang San to stand steady, he saw Emperor Xiao Yunzhou, who was clearly half a street ahead, suddenly turned back from the imperial sedan!

He looked at the place where he almost fell down!

The Liu family's master's back was immediately covered with sweat.

"Master, are you okay?"

Old Madam Liu was also very nervous.

Emperor Xiao Yunzhou looked around at the people and found that everyone's expression was normal. They should not blame him as the emperor for the earth dragon turning over. Only then did he move his hesitant eyes away with relief.

When Master Liu saw the emperor turn his head, his face regained color.

"Look, I told you, listen to what you say!" Old Madam Liu scolded.

Especially from his granddaughter!

Master Liu took a breath, "Madam, a gentleman does not talk about strange things, maybe it's just a coincidence."

Old Madam Liu stared, this blockhead!

But soon, the couple both pricked up their ears silently.

[Grandfather escaped a disaster today, but he must be more careful when he is asked questions in front of the palace two days later.]

[The emperor will ask grandfather to come and ask, "How should Pan control the flood?" Grandfather answered incorrectly and was demoted soon!]

Master Liu's face changed.
