Chapter 1938 You Can Make the Decision

"When you are old enough, go to the Royal Academy. After six years of study, you can still take the imperial examination. Second uncle is not unaware of your situation. He will force you to finish learning the imperial examination materials before you reach the age. When you leave the Royal Academy, he will use another year to force you to prepare for the imperial examination. This is also possible." Gu Yingxue said.

"Do you think the imperial examination is so easy?" Gu Ren rolled his eyes at her, and then said, "How about this, let's bet on whether Second Uncle is willing to let me enter the Royal Academy next year! If he is willing, you will give me 100 taels. If he is not willing, I will give you 100 taels!"

"Are you crazy! Where did you get 100 taels? Besides, the 100 taels in my hand are all the money I have. Gu Erdan, are you trying to cheat me of my money?" Gu Yingxue glared at Gu Ren.

Her angry look was just seen by the Western Prince Group sitting opposite them.

"Oh my, I didn't realize it when I was in the West before, but it turns out that Miss Xue'er is also pretty! The soil and water of the Great Zhou are really good for people. She was dark and skinny in our West, but she is not only fairer but also fleshier after coming back. She looks really pretty now!" Helian Yi pushed Cheng Huaijin next to him.

Cheng Huaijin rolled his eyes at him and didn't answer, but his eyes looked at Gu Yingxue.

Gu Yingxue didn't notice it yet, and was about to grab Gu Ren's face, but was slapped away by Gu Ren.

The two siblings started to play like this.

It happened that the dance ended, and the Empress Dowager had been paying attention to this side. She smiled and asked, "Are those Xiaoliu and Yingxue from the Gu family over there?"

Gu Yingxue was startled when she heard the voice. Oh my, she is not a descendant of the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager saw her bullying her great-grandson, she would beg for mercy.

Gu Ren stood up and saluted in a formal manner: "Grand Empress Dowager, it's me. I'm making a bet with Sister Yingxue."

The Grand Empress Dowager looked at Gu Ren with interest: "Oh? Bet? What's the bet?"

She likes all her great-grandchildren, and her favorite is Gu Ren, this little cutie. There's nothing she can do about it. Gu Ren is really good at pleasing people, and he can write a lot of interesting stories. He is very smart at a young age.

Gu Yingxue just stood up, not knowing what to say, and could only look at Gu Ren.

"Hey, Ah Hai, do you think this girl Xue'er looks smart and cute at one moment, and looks very stupid at another?" Helian Yi whispered to Cheng Huaijin again.

"I don't think so." Cheng Huaijin glanced at Helian Yi and whispered.

"Alas, you, you are so boring!" Helian Yi sometimes wanted to knock open Cheng Huaijin's brain to see what was in his head. He was not interested in beautiful girls. It was so boring.

In just two sentences, Gu Ren had already said the content of the bet.

The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment, then called Gu Shouxin: "Second Gu, then tell me if you are willing to send Gu Xiaoliu to the Royal Academy next year?"

Gu Shouxin, who was named, stood up calmly and said: "Grand Empress Dowager, I can't make the decision."

Uncle Gu waved his hand: "Second Lao, you can do it, you can do it. You can make the decision for our children."

Everyone present: "..."

Sure enough, he is the same as Prince Kang and Duke Cheng'en. He doesn't care about his own children. It seems that Lord Gu has a lot of say at home!

Gu Shouxin curled his lips and said: "The rule of the Royal Academy is that boys enter at the age of twelve. Gu Xiaoliu will only be six years old in October this year."
