Chapter 635
"Can you see the child?"

"Queen Mother, this servant has seen you."

"How?" The Queen Mother, who has been able to stand firm in the face of countless storms in her life, her tone was filled with excitement and expectation.

"You will meet the Queen Mother soon! She looks very much like the old man in our house, and has a similar temperament." Grandma Chang's eyes were red, and she could not suppress the joy in her voice.

The news that Bai Panmei won the top prize caused a great sensation in the capital.

There are often number one picks, but the one who is so young and comes from a farm family and looks more handsome than Tanhua Lang is still No. 1.

When Bai Panmei was riding through the streets, people from all over the capital came out to watch, causing a congestion.

If he hadn't been surrounded by officials from the Ministry of Rites and Yulin Guards, he would have been arrested long ago.

Bai Panmei was riding a tall horse and was dressed in red. When she passed the central axis of the main entrance of the palace, Grandma Chang went to see the newly minted No. [-] scholar on behalf of the Queen Mother.

After reading it, I went back to the Queen Mother with excitement.

"Okay, okay!" Although the Queen Mother had not yet met Bai Panmei, she could not suppress her joy when she learned from Aunt Chang about the elegance of the new top scholar.

Looking at the relaxed look on the Queen Mother's face, Grandma Chang was very happy.

"Your Majesty, the eldest lady is also leaving for Beijing." Grandma Chang said with a smile.

After the Queen Mother learned that the eldest lady was going to Beijing, her condition improved.

These days, the Queen Mother is looking forward to Zhen's reunion in Beijing.

After so many years of separation, she was already an octogenarian, and she didn't know what had become of the little girl who was hiding in her house to prevent her sister-in-law from finding her.

In the blink of an eye, her son became the number one scholar in a new subject.

"After the banquet in Qionglin, call the child in and let me take a look." The Queen Mother ordered Nanny Chang.

Grandma Chang agreed with a smile!
"The Queen Mother, the old lady of the Zhenguo Mansion has asked to see you three times."

Grandma Chang originally didn't want to mention the government's intention to sweep away the Queen Mother, but the old lady had already handed over the sign three times. If she hadn't told her, she would have handed it over four or five times.

The old lady of Zhenguo Mansion really gets more and more stubborn as she gets older!

"See you after the Qionglin banquet." The Queen Mother looked really surprised.

"The old lady is also doing it for Miss Fan." Grandma Chang said softly.

"No!" When the Queen Mother heard that it was for Fan Lingyi, she refused directly.

Grandma Chang didn't dare to say anything when she saw that the Queen Mother was angry.

"If it wasn't for the Ai family's face, Ling Yi would have been taken down long ago." The Queen Mother's anger grew stronger.

Aunt Chang gave the Queen Mother a cup of tea, and she couldn't help but blame herself. Why did the old lady of the State Government ask her so politely, but she would just block her when she came to see the Queen Mother again.

Don’t blame the Queen Mother for being angry.

Fan Lingyi has now become the laughing stock of the entire capital.

She fell in love with Bai Panmei in order to make Bai Panmei look at her differently.

Before the examination, at the instigation of student Pan Chang, he bribed the examiner and obtained the examination paper in order to cheat on Bai Panmei.

After Pan Chang got the test questions, he first wrote down the questions on the test paper, and then thought of stuffing them into Bai Panmei without her knowledge, thereby framing Bai Panmei and competing for the top prize.

Unexpectedly, on the way to Bai Panmei's residence, he was knocked down by Princess Yun'an's servant, and the examination paper rolled down from his body.

Thus the incident occurred.

The imperial examination is a major event related to the imperial court's selection of talents and the country's future official reserve. Adulteration is not allowed. If cheating is not allowed to participate in the imperial examination for three generations, the person involved will also be imprisoned.

Pan Chang was captured on the spot by Beijing Zhaofu Yin, and Fan Lingyi was found to be the mastermind.

Fan Lingyi was the legitimate daughter of Fan Shijie, a powerful official in the dynasty. The governor of Jingzhao did not dare to bring her to trial easily, and the trouble went all the way to Dali Temple.

This incident caused a sensation in the court last month, and Master Yu Shiwu took this opportunity to bite Fan Shijie.Fan Shijie has not shown face to face to this day and has been claiming to be ill at home.

In the end, Pan Chang resisted everything.

This Pan Chang is not innocent either. He encouraged Fan Lingyi to bribe the examiner not to help Bai Panmei, but because he was jealous that Bai Panmei was born in a peasant family but was the number one scholar and was favored by Miss Fan.

Therefore, he had the idea of ​​destroying Bai Panmei.

Fan Lingyi is also a fool. She thought she could help Bai Panmei, but not only did she overturn her car, but she also implicated Fan Shijie.

If it weren't for her father being a powerful official in the court and her maternal grandfather's family being the Queen Mother's family, she would have been imprisoned.

After investigation, Bai Panmei was innocent. Bai Panmei did not know about Fan Lingyi and Pan Chang's conspiracy until the incident.

If the test paper really appeared in Bai Pan's sister's room, he, the top scholar, couldn't explain it clearly.

The Queen Mother was very angry about Fan Lingyi's stupidity, and asked the nuns in the palace to come to punish her, and then directly ordered her to be grounded in a temple in the suburbs.

When Mrs. Fan saw her beloved daughter being punished, she naturally felt distressed and begged her mother-in-law, Mrs. Li, the Duke of Zhenguo, to come to the palace to intercede with the Queen Mother.

However, the Queen Mother was not seen.

"After Miss Fan's incident, her temper should be restrained in the future." Regarding this, Grandma Chang said that it was very contrary to her wishes.

But what could she say? After all, Fan Lingyi broke the bones and tendons by calling the Queen Mother "aunt".

"Don't say anything against your will." The Queen Mother sneered, "Her temper can't be changed. Fortunately, the fourth child of the Bai family has not been implicated in this matter. If something happens, I will feel sorry for Fu'er."

"The fourth young master is very lucky." Aunt Chang said.

"The fact that the mother of the new top scholar is Fu'er has been kept secret for the time being, especially from the Duke of Zhenguo." The Queen Mother said.

The old friends of Zhen Guo Gong probably thought that Zhen was dead. If they knew that Zhen was not only alive, but also the mother of the new champion, they would probably be targeted and suppressed by the Zhen Guo Gong and Fan's mansions.

This news had to be kept secret until Zhen came to Beijing and came to her to protect her personally.

When she sent someone to investigate what happened in the Zhen Mansion, she discovered that her niece was sold to Yangzhou with the handiwork of the old lady who is now the Duke of Zhenguo.

She kept suppressing it and waited until Mrs. Zhen came to Beijing to pursue the matter.

If the old lady really did something to her niece, don't blame her for being rude to this sister-in-law.

"... Queen Mother, the Fourth Young Master is so young and promising. I guess there are many people who want to marry him this time." Chang Ma smiled and brought the topic to Bai Panmei's marriage.

This pair of master and servant understood the meaning of each other's words best. The Queen Mother suddenly understood that Aunt Chang was talking about Fan Lingyi's crush on the fourth child.

Now that the fourth child is the number one scholar in a new subject, he is afraid that Fan Shijie will be ranked as his son-in-law.

"I'll invite the Emperor to have a meal later." The Queen Mother thought for a while and said.

She planned to ask the emperor to take action, hinting to the courtiers that no one should interfere with the marriage of the new champion. She was attracted to this champion, and she wanted to personally negotiate the match.

"Yes." Grandma Chang responded.

"On the day of the Qionglin Banquet, let Yaoyao go to the palace to accompany the Ai family. The Ai family misses the child." The Queen Mother thought of Ji Yaoyao and smiled.

What a coincidence, it was Ji Yaoyao's servant who knocked over Pan Chang, thus saving Bai Panmei's reputation.

Could it be that these two children have a fate cultivated in their previous lives?

"Your Majesty, I have heard that in some villages, children are betrothed when they are young. I wonder if the fourth young master of the eldest lady's family has been engaged in his hometown?" Grandma Chang reminded tactfully.

If Bai Panmei gets engaged in her hometown, it will be difficult to draw red lines for him.

The Queen Mother frowned!

"Mrs. Zhongjing and the eldest lady have recognized each other as sisters. The fourth son has been studying at Mrs. Zhongjing's natal family. Maybe Mrs. Zhongjing knows whether the fourth son is engaged," said Grandma Chang.

The Queen Mother was moved in her heart and said: "The flowers in the garden are blooming just in time. Tomorrow I invite Mrs. Zhongjing Houfu to come to the palace to enjoy the flowers."
