There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 572

He took Li Peiyu as a concubine for a purpose.

He doesn't like Li Peiyu!

"It's just a concubine." Mu Xuan chuckled.

Li Jiaoniang smiled again and said, "Mr. Mu walked out of the examination room with a happy face. He must have a chance of winning in his heart. Congratulations in advance."

I'm afraid that Mu Xuan will cry when the time comes.

Mu Xuan said proudly, "I'm not talented, but the top three can still be easily obtained."

Li Jiaoniang laughed, "Congratulations."

"Jiaoniang, we have to go." Luo Cheng gave Mu Xuan a cold look and urged Li Jiaoniang.

"Let's go." Li Jiaoniang nodded.

She didn't like talking to Mu Xuan, she wanted to see how proud Mu Xuan was before his failure, and how disappointed he was after his failure.

"Li Jiaoniang, this man is not worthy of you! When I win the first place, I must snatch you over!"

"It depends on how thick you are." Luo Cheng said coldly.

"Just wait and see!" Mu Xuan said proudly.

……

The examination room is arranged in the empty courtyard of the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites.

The weather was fine and there was no wind.

The sun was shining and it was warm.

Dozens of students, one person at a table, are meditating and writing.

There are three examiners sitting on the top.

One of them is Chen Shilang from the Ministry of Rites.

When Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng came to the gate, a yamen servant came over immediately, holding a knife and blocking them, "Idlers should not come near."

Li Jiaoniang pulled Luo Cheng away.

Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng were not the only ones who came to inquire, there were quite a few people crowded around, almost a hundred people.

Most of them are the attendants or domestic servants of the examinees.

Today's exams are no different from those in the past. These candidates are all descendants of dignitaries.

The family members were worried about the grades, so they sent servants to inquire about the situation.

Not long after, Qin Xun and Lu You came out side by side.

Qin Xun's expression was a little depressed, which showed that he didn't perform well.

Lu You was in high spirits.

Li Jiaoniang pulled Luo Cheng and walked over.

"Third Cousin, how are you?" Luo Cheng said with a smile.

"I wrote this article on governing officials last year, and the master of Jishan Academy even praised me. I can almost write it at my fingertips. It's just..." Thinking of the three examiners, he felt unsure.

Just now he was full of spirits, but now he looked depressed.

The presiding judge is a student of the Mu University, and the Mu family and the Qin family belong to the same faction.

The other two are directly from Qin Hui.

When he met these three people, he wanted to win the top prize, but it was more difficult than ascending to the sky.

"Just what?" Luo Cheng asked with concern.

Lu You laughed ironically, "The three examiners are from the Mu family and the Qin family."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Third Cousin, don't be discouraged. I believe that Chen Shilang from the Ministry of Rites is a fair person. He can correct the test papers as he wants, and he will not cheat for personal gain."

"Hmph, it's hard to say." A candidate snorted coldly and flicked his sleeves.

When he saw Qin Xun, he rolled his eyes impolitely, and flung his sleeves away.

Qin Xun looked embarrassed.

He bowed his hand towards Li Jiaoniang, "Miss Li."

"Master Qin." Li Jiaoniang nodded her head in return.

"Father, mother, are you here too?" Zhao Cong walked over with a smile, and behind him was Zhao Gui.

Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng immediately went to talk to them, but everyone ignored Qin Xun.

With a pale face, Qin Xun bowed his head and walked away.

His bookboy came over, glanced at Li Jiaoniang and the others, and snorted.

"Young master, it's true. You know they don't like you, so why should you go to see them?"

"Shut up." Qin Xun said coldly to the book boy.

"Yes." The book boy sighed.

When Zhao Shicheng walked out of the examination room, he saw Luo Cheng, Li Jiaoniang and the others at a glance.

He was about to walk over, but saw Lu You also there.

He shook his head and walked away.

"Lang Jun? How did you do in the exam?" A woman's voice asked gently in front of Zhao Shicheng.

Zhao Shicheng looked up and found Tang Wan standing in front of him.

His eyes flickered, "Why are you here?"

"Come and see you, cheer you up!" Logan said with a smile.

"The exam papers are not too difficult, and everything went well." Zhao Shicheng said with a smile.

The two got into the carriage parked nearby, talked for a while, and then left.

Tang Wan also saw Luo Cheng and the others, as well as Lu You.

It was embarrassing to go up to talk to Li Jiaoniang at this time.

Just pretend you haven't met them, living in the same city, there are many opportunities to meet them.

Li Jiaoniang comforted Lu You for a while, then went back to look for Zhao Shicheng Tang Wan, and found that they had already left.

These two!
Li Jiaoniang is funny.

No matter how well you do in the exam, in short, it is something worth celebrating when you finish the exam.

Zhao Gui was the host and invited Zhao Cong, Lu You, Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang to his house for a drink.

After entering the Xuandelang mansion, where there were no outsiders, Zhao Gui spoke more boldly.

He patted Lu You on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You don't have to look sad, Mr. Lu. Didn't you perform well? No.1 must be you."

Lu You smiled wryly, "Xuande Lang, it's not like you don't know the origins of the three adults who are taking the exam."

"So what? They still dare to cheat for personal gain?" Zhao Gui said with a smile.

Lu You smiled sarcastically, "It's really possible."

Zhao Gui smiled and said, "This list hasn't even been released, how do you know they won't do their best to approve the papers?"

Luo Cheng also said, "That's right, Third Cousin, let's wait until tomorrow to see the results, today I only drink alcohol."

Zhao Cong also persuaded Lu You.

Lu You thought about it for a while, and he was right, whether to be sad or not to be sad doesn't help the matter, and we will talk about it after reading the list tomorrow.

"Okay, go drink!"

……

Royal Palace.

Gaozong wandered around the imperial garden with his two favorite concubines.

It was only February and early spring, and the imperial garden was already full of flowers.

The scenery is good, the people around are beautiful, there are no major wars in the border areas, and the government is peaceful.

Gaozong was very satisfied with his current life.

He clings to the wine glass, admires the flowers, and recites poems, very happy.

At this time, an internal servant came running in a hurry.

Holding a list in his hand, he looked panic-stricken.

"Official, it's amazing!"

Gao Zong narrowed his eyes and said displeased, "What's the big deal?"

"Officials, please take a look." The internal guard handed the list into Gaozong's hand, "I don't know who scattered it, there are many places in the city, and the people are rushing to see it. The soldiers patrolling the city picked it up." If you find that the matter is important, hand it over to the palace immediately."

Gaozong handed the wine glass to the maid beside him, and he immediately looked at the list with a frown.

After a while, he yelled, "They are quite courageous!"

Ji Chang, the Ouchi attendant who was accompanying him, hurriedly asked, "Official, what happened?"

"Look!" Gaozong threw the list to Jichang.

Jichang hurriedly took it in his hand to watch.

After taking a closer look, he was shocked, "This... is this true?"

Gao Zong said angrily, "It's impossible for the matter to come from nowhere. You should immediately report that Chen Zimao will come to the palace to meet me. In addition, you should go outside the palace to investigate the situation yourself, and report to me immediately!"

The matter was serious and urgent, Jichang did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly said, "Yes, the official."

Jichang sent a capable man to pass on to Chen Zimao, the chief examiner.

In addition, he hurried out of the palace with a few people and went to the street.

As the internal servant who sent the list said just now, people on the street are discussing the content of the list.

Moreover, most of the people were very angry, and they were all cursing the Qin family's arrogance.

"How can I ask Chen Shilang to take care of me? This is a threat!"

"That's right! You said that after taking good care of you, you will give benefits to Chen Shilang. The implication is that you will blame Chen Shilang if you don't take care of it?"

"What else is there to test? Just give the grandson of the Qin family a No. 1, isn't it enough?"

"The Qin family is too arrogant!"

"When has their family not been arrogant?"

"They don't even pay attention to the official family!"

"I know, it is said that the Song Dynasty is the world of the Zhao family, but those who don't know think it is the world of the surname Qin!"

"Are our officials confused? Why are we willing to give the country to the Qin family for nothing?"

People made a lot of comments, expressing their dislike for the Qin family.

Jichang listened to these, and the more he listened, the more frightened he became.

He went to other places, and everyone talked about it in the same way.

"Master Ji, it's almost the same, it's time to go back and report." His subordinate said.

Ji Chang's eyes were heavy, "Go back!"

Back in the Imperial Garden, Jichang saw that Chen Shilang was bowing his head and bowing his waist, talking to Gaozong in panic.

He stepped forward, "Officials, I went to seven places, and they all found the same situation."

Gaozong glanced at Chen Shilang coldly, and said to Jichang, "Tell me the truth."

"Yes." Jichang replied.

He told Emperor Gaozong one by one what people said on the street, without hiding a single word.

Chen Shilang stood aside and listened, his face turned pale with fright.

Bad, how did this thing get out?

And that letter, obviously on his desk?

After Luo Cheng read that letter to Zhao Gui, he asked the little gray hairball to send it back. Of course, Chen Shilang didn't know what was going on.
