Sheng Chong Jinghua: There is room for the legitimate daughter of the miracle doctor

Chapter 53 The Imperial Examination
Lin Shu didn't expect that this incredible wealth would be her turn. When the account book was delivered to Hexiangyuan, Huo Jiuge was also shocked. After listening to the butler's explanation later, she realized that Qin was the one who was frightened. I had a stroke and now I can’t even get out of bed.

After the housekeeper left, Dongmei said with a happy face: "Great, now the Rongguo Palace is finally back in the hands of the young lady."

Looking at the thick stack of account books on the table, Huo Jiuge didn't feel happy at all. Instead, he felt deeply worried.

"Go and inquire to see if Mr. Qin's condition is as serious as the housekeeper said." Huo Jiuge ordered Qiu Chan.

"Are you worried that there is fraud here?" Qiu Chan, who has fought against the Qin family several times, also understands what her young lady is worried about. After all, the second wife and her family have been dormant for many years just to occupy the entire Rongguo Palace. Now they are so willing to do so. Did you give in?

Huo Jiuge didn't answer her question, but just asked her to be careful in her actions so as not to be discovered by others.

Qiu Chan nodded and accepted the order, and then took advantage of noon to go to Ziwei Garden to inquire about the news.

Huo Jiuge flipped through an account book at random, and read it carefully after sitting down. It was not until it was time to light the lamp that she had a general understanding of the distribution of the property of the Duke of Rongguo.

The emperor valued General Huo Xin. He not only promoted him to a higher rank, but also rewarded him with gold, silver and jewelry in boxes. Every reward was recorded. Because it belonged to the royal family, these things are still there. It was well kept in the house and no one dared to touch it.

The monthly expenses of the house were recorded. The seemingly flawless ledger made Huo Jiuge fall into deep thought. She did not believe that the Qin family had not enriched herself in these years. The cleaner the ledger, the more likely she would be. The more suspicious he became, the more he suspected that Qin was doing something behind his back.

When she finally saw her, she simply closed the account book. Just then Qiu Chan came over with the news she had found out.

"How?" Huo Jiuge asked.

"It is true that Mrs. Qin is seriously ill. When I saw her, I saw that she was lying on the bed. All her daily life was taken care of by the servants as usual. Even the second young master stopped reading recently and has been taking care of her."

Huo Changqing is about to take the imperial examination. Even he can give up the most important thing at the moment and choose to serve his mother. It seems that Qin's condition is really serious.

Qiu Chan continued: "And I heard that the master has considered letting the man from Zenxi Temple come back in a few days."

"How many days has she been here?" Dongmei on the side couldn't help but said: "I think she is just pretending to make the master feel sorry for her, and then her daughter will come to serve her."

After listening to what they said, Huo Jiuge did not express any opinions. Compared with whether Qin's condition was true or false, there was a more important thing to do now, and that was to find the true account book.

Only by finding the real account books could she know how much of her family's property the Qin family had embezzled over the years.

She waved her hand and told Qiu Chan not to worry about Ziweiyuan's affairs for the time being. Anyway, the Qin family's housekeeper power had been taken away, and Huo Qingshang had also completely lost trust in the old man.

Now the status of the entire second house in the old man's heart has dropped sharply, and it will never return to the past.

In three days, the imperial examination will begin. During these days, Huo Changqing will not only review his homework, but also take care of the Qin family.Even Huo Ren couldn't stand it any longer. He advised, "Your mother has a maid here to look after her, so don't worry about it. You should focus on the exam."

"In your mind, father, is mother not as important as fame?" Huo Changqing looked coldly at the man in front of him who he called his father, "You can take the imperial examination again after passing the imperial examination, but Changqing only has such a mother!"

"That's not what I meant." Huo Ren explained to him: "Your mother has put in so much effort for the future of you and your sister, and it is precisely because of this that she became as ill as she is now. If you really If you are filial, you should study harder and devote yourself to this scientific examination, instead of sitting in the inner house like a woman, taking soup and doing things that servants do!"

"It turns out that my father also knew that my mother collapsed because of this family. I thought you didn't know anything." Huo Changqing grew up next to the Qin family since he was a child, so he naturally has a better relationship with her.

As for Huo Ren, his ability is mediocre. He relies on the merits of his ancestors and his brother to achieve what he is today. In addition, he always loves to linger in the yards of other aunts, so the father-son relationship between him and Huo Changqing is not close. Especially after something happened to Huo Qingshang, he couldn't do anything as a father.

Not only could he not teach Huo Jiuge a lesson, but when his wife and children were bullied, he could only watch with cold eyes in order to protect himself. So after this incident, he was completely disappointed with Huo Ren as a father. .

Compared with the cowardly Huo Ren, Huo Changqing is a bit more bloody.

Huo Changqing's sarcastic words gave Huo Ren a headache. In the end, he simply waved his sleeves and left angrily, ignoring the mess.

Although Mrs. Qin could not move now, she could still hear the quarrel between them. Two lines of tears flowed from her eyes. She used to be proud and arrogant, but now she seemed to be no different from those old women outside.

And all this was caused by Huo Jiuge!She must make her pay a hundred times more pain than herself!

Qin's hands were clenching the sheets tightly, hatred had taken over all her reason!
It was a rare sunny day when Huo Changqing took part in the imperial examination. The whole family went to see him off. Except for Huo Qingshang, who was still in bed, Qin was already far away in Zenxi Temple, and even Huo Jiuge went.

Everyone took turns saying auspicious words to Huo Changqing. When it was Huo Jiuge's turn, Huo Changqing ignored her and went straight to the examination room.

Everyone's expressions changed slightly. They all knew the reason why he did this. In the past, he might have criticized him a little, but today, as someone who was about to take the exam, naturally everything had to be centered on him.

The entrance of the Confucius Temple was crowded with people seeing them off. When the time came and the candidates entered, they and other idle people were rushed to the designated place to wait.

Then I saw a large sedan chair carried in all directions, gradually coming from the other end of the street. After getting off the sedan chair, a man in official uniform walked out of the sedan chair.

He is the examiner of this imperial examination - Pei Jingxing.

I saw him walking slowly and leisurely. After walking towards the steps, he offered a stick of incense in front of the statue of Confucius and then walked into the examination room.
