Chapter 949 The unexpected beauty hunter
Jiayin didn't even raise her head and responded casually, "I'm curious, but they don't want me to know, so I just pretend not to know. They are the biological father and daughter. If something happens, it's not easy for me as an outsider to get involved. "
"The Emperor treats you like his own daughter..." Shui Ling refused to accept it and wanted to say more, but was slapped on the back of the head by Shui Yun and cursed in a low voice, "You also said that it was 'like' kissing your daughter, not like your own daughter! "
Shui Ling was slapped so hard that she stuck out her tongue, pouted and stopped talking.
Jiayin glanced at them and said with a smile, "Don't be curious, Brother Mu will send a message soon."
“Yes, I forgot about Guard Mu.” Shui Ling was like a small seedling that had been watered, and it immediately started to stand up.
At this time, the window lattice was lightly knocked twice and then pushed open.
Mu Jue was like a small fish, jumping in instantly from the window, very skillfully.
Shui Ling was so surprised that she quickly helped pour tea and served it.
Mu Jue drank it all in one gulp, then sat down and said, "Princess, the emperor has left."
Jiayin nodded and asked, "But which student does the third princess like to be the consort?"
Mu Jue smiled and replied, "I can't hide it from you, that's true. The third princess mentioned Prince Lu, but the emperor didn't agree immediately."
Jiayin closed the book, dragged his white chin, flashed his long eyelashes, and sighed softly.
“Uncle Huang may think that our family is causing trouble, so we need to investigate.”
Mu Jue shrugged and smiled mockingly, "The emperor is suspicious, which is expected."
Shui Ling was not happy to hear this, "The third princess likes Prince Lu. What does it have to do with our family?"
Shuiyun disliked her talkativeness, so he pulled her and said to Jiayin, "Miss, it's getting late. We have to leave the palace and go home tomorrow. You should rest early."
Jiayin thought for a while and said, "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanting shadows, so you don't have to worry either.
"Tomorrow is the day when the results will be released. I want to say congratulations to my eldest brother in person. The day after tomorrow, my eldest brother will ride on a horse and parade through the streets. I also want to take a few more glances. When my grandma and mother come back, I can talk to them."
Mu Jue took two fruits from the plate on the table and stuffed them into his arms. Without saying anything, he jumped out of the window again.
Ever since the weather got warmer, he refused to sleep in the house.
This also made Shui Ling and Shui Yun secretly breathe a sigh of relief. God knows how many veils they tore to pieces after guessing it.
I'm afraid that others will find out about this and ruin the lady's reputation.
Soon, the two of them washed up and changed into nightgowns while waiting for the good news, and then retired to the outside room to sleep.
On the contrary, Mu Jue was lying on the roof with his feet up, enjoying the cool night wind, happily gnawing fruits, swaying proudly on his toes, and he didn’t know what he was happy about...
Early on the second day, good news came out of the palace.
Sure enough, his carriage was at the gate of the palace.
Today is the court meeting. Li Laoer, Li Laosi and the Marquis are all attending the court.
So, in the carriage there were only brother Li who was anxious to know the ranking, Lu Zong, Jia Xu, Jia Huan, the village chief, Uncle Zhao and others.
As for Jiaren, he has to wait at the Earl's Mansion. After all, there are still official messengers to entertain the good news.
Seeing the good news coming, everyone was happy.
Brother Li also put aside his anxious mood and ate snacks with his sister, waiting for news.
Lu Zong was not under any pressure and was joking along with him.
Jia Xu was so anxious that he could not sit still...
Countless students and their families did not dare to get too close, so they waited dozens of feet away from the palace gate to post the list.
At three o'clock in the morning, Manager Feng personally led the people out.
Three large lists with gold letters on a red background were posted on the palace wall.
In order to prevent the crowd from crowding and causing trouble, some guards chanted the rankings loudly. But Brother Li was impatient, so he still led people to squeeze in.
Unsurprisingly, Jiaren reached the top and became the number one scholar in a new subject.
The second person on the list is a middle-aged man in his thirties.
The third flower unexpectedly fell on Lu Zong.
Not to mention everyone, even Lu Zong himself was shocked.
You need to know that his ranking before the imperial examination was not considered high.
Even if you perform well in the imperial examination, you won't be able to reach the top in one fell swoop.
Jia Xu just wanted to be happy for his friend, so he patted him **** the shoulder and shouted over and over again, "Brother Lu, you are so awesome! You are the crown prince of a family of military generals!"
Lu Zong came back to his senses, put away his surprise, and returned the greeting with a smile, "Lucky, lucky!"
Jiayin's eyes flashed, she said congratulations with a smile, and then said, "Yesterday, I also sneaked away to watch the fun. Brother Lu is the least nervous among all the students. Naturally, he did well in the exam. This young man is also a good candidate. Well deserved."
Lu Zong smiled more and more happily and responded, "Thank you, Princess Princess. Yesterday I saw a blue skirt under the screen, so I guessed that you were secretly hiding to watch the fun."
Jiayin waved her hands and said with a smile, "The one in the blue skirt is not me, but the third princess. We looked at her for a while and almost got caught, so we ran away quickly."
Lu Zong was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask a few more questions, but Brother Li had already run back excitedly.
“I got the 50th place on the second list, and Brother Jia was the 30th place on the second list!”
"Seriously?" Jia Xu was so excited that he pulled Brother Li into the car.
Brother Li nodded vigorously and said with a smile, "Brother Jia, this is your true ability. You were delayed in showing it because of illness."
At this time, the soldier also sang Jia Xu loudly.
Hearing his name and ranking with his own ears, Jia Xu punched the air hard.
The last defeat was a big stone in his heart, which put him under too much pressure.
Fortunately, he was practicing outside and was much calmer. He withstood the pressure and finally got the glory he deserved this time.
It’s just that compared to Lu Zong, he is still far behind, but after all, he is not left behind by brother Li, and he is satisfied...
There was already a group of soldiers riding horses with red flowers on their heads, galloping to various mansions to announce the good news.
Needless to say, they are about to make another windfall.
Jiaren and Wan'er sent everyone off early in the morning and waited at the house.
Finally, they heard the sound of horse hooves and received the good news, and the young couple finally felt relieved.
"Congratulations, husband!" Wan'er saluted with tears in her eyes, and then took her son to bow to her father.
Jiaren hugged his wife and children, lowered his head and wiped away the tears of excitement on his wife's shoulder, "Wan'er, thank you for your hard work! In the past few years, you have single-handedly supported the family for me to study. Today's number one scholar is half of your contribution! "
Wan'er glanced at the maids and women who were guarding the door with their heads lowered, and blushed a little.
She hurriedly broke away from her husband's arms and said angrily, "Husband and wife are one, and I support my husband in studying as he should. Taking advantage of the fact that there are not many people at the moment, my husband quickly wrote a letter to grandma to announce the good news, otherwise in the next three or four days, you are afraid that I don’t even have time to sleep.”
Jiaren agreed with a smile and went directly to the study.
Besides, at the gate of the palace, everyone was overjoyed after hearing the good news.
The village chief and Uncle Zhao couldn't wait any longer, so they immediately took a carriage out of the city and returned to Broken Gold Beach.
There are thousands of fellow villagers in Broken Gold Beach, waiting for the good news!
Jia Xu and Lu Zong naturally wanted to return home, so they left in a hurry.
Not to mention how happy the Jia family was, Lu Zong only said that Lu Zong entered his mansion, gathered people and ordered one thing...
