A Complete Explanation of the Negative Textbooks of the Imperial Examination

    Xiao Jingduo's identity as the eldest son was finally positively recognized, he was relieved, but there was no joy on his face. He pierced through what Xiao Ying and Dingyong Houfu had been trying to cover up, how could these people spare him lightly? Xiao Jingduo can already predict what kind of situation will be waiting for him after returning to the mansion.

    Sure enough, when Wu Junru's carriage stopped in front of Dingyonghou's mansion after leaving Zhao Guogong's mansion, Wu Junru saw that there were no more outsiders, so she tore off the mask of hypocrisy without hesitation, facing him He sneered: "Okay, it turned out to be an unfamiliar wolf cub, but I misread you. If you can use the princess' power to overwhelm me, can you borrow it for the rest of your life? You wait, we'll see."

    After Wu Junru said harsh words, she threw her sleeves to get started.

      The man patted the armrest angrily: "Confused!"

      Xiao Ying looked at her nine-year-old son and realized for the first time that he might have underestimated Xiao Jingduo.

    "You still have the face to come back!" Xiao Ying shouted angrily, "I thought your disobedience to the elders was just a moment of confusion, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid to tell outsiders about the Xiao family's family affairs. , and told the princess of the royal family! You are so willful, sooner or later, you will tire the entire Xiao family!"

    Xiao Jingduo sneered, causing the entire Xiao family? If he has his own power, the first thing to do is to defeat the Dingyonghou mansion. Does Xiao Ying think that he will serve for the Dingyonghou mansion in the future? Simply ridiculous.

      Xiao Ying saw that Xiao Jingduo was just standing in the hall coldly, with no fear or regret, he became more and more annoyed, and roared: "Go to the ancestral hall and kneel to reflect, without my order, it is not allowed. stand up."

    Xiao Jingduo turned his head and walked out without saying a word. The old lady looked so angry: "Duoer, what kind of decency do you have? Why don't you admit your mistake to your father. When your father calms down, you can be punished less. Do you really want to kneel at the ancestral hall?"

    "No need."

    "Hey you..." The old lady was so angry that her chest hurts, she wanted to let Xiao Jingduo dry, how bold a nine-year-old child can be, and being yelled at by his father would have been frightened. She came forward to intercede again, but did not expect that Xiao Jingduo would not say a word, preferring to be punished rather than submissive. The anger in the old lady's heart also rose, and she said angrily: "Okay, since you insist on being disobedient, then go to the ancestral hall and kneel, you will regret it sooner or later!"

    After Xiao Jingduo left, the old lady was still so angry that her chest was heaving, she rubbed her brows and asked Xiao Ying in embarrassment: "Dalang, what do you think about today's affairs? There are many princesses and nobles. Forget things, maybe Duoer will be forgotten in a few days, and then we will announce that Duoer is the eldest son?"

    Wu Junru immediately sneered: "Princess Pingwei forgot about this, so many officials and wives today, they can also forget? I knew that this child is not simple, full of ghost ideas, now Well, the position of the eldest son of the Hou family can only be given to him."

    "It's so serious?" The old lady asked suspiciously, "Isn't this kind of thing done by the elders in the family? It's our Xiao family's business, why do outsiders care about it."

    Wu Junru was so angry that she didn't want to talk to the old lady, Xiao Ying also shook her head: "It's not that simple, once a lot of things are exposed, you can only bite the bullet and admit it to the end. His neck was so hard before, I I thought he still had resentment in his heart, but he didn't expect that he had so much in his own mind."

    "Isn't it for the title of Houfu?" Wu Junru was full of anger when she thought of what happened just now. She underestimated the ancients and did not expect a nine-year-old child to have so many Mind, not only did she know how to plan for her future at a young age, but she also acted innocent and harmless, which caught her off guard. Xiao Jingduo has done so much, nothing more than to become the eldest son and take over Xiao Ying's title in the future. If Wu Junru lets him do so, wouldn't it be that Bai has lived in two dimensions for so many years? So she immediately put on a look of grievance and said, "This kid is real, if he wants a title, just say it, can I stop him? He looked like he didn't care before, I thought he I really don't need these false names, that's why I mentioned this to my father and brother. I didn't expect him to do things behind the scenes, doing this kind of cannibalism and hurting relatives and enemies. He really made me so much Chilled!"

    Hearing Wu Junru say this, the old lady felt that the situation was serious. It turned out that the issue of the direct descendant, which was insignificant to her, was also related to the title of honor. She sighed and said loudly: "How does this work!"

    The old lady was both angry and helpless, but the most important thing at the moment was to comfort her daughter-in-law from a good background, she said softly: "Jun Ru, don't be angry, with us, how can you Let others bully you? Duo’er is also really, he actually put his mind on the title of Hou’s mansion. It’s a shame that I trusted him like that before. Junru, don’t worry, Duo’er’s mother is not a high-ranking man after all, this Hou’s mansion In the end, it's still your son."

    Old Mrs. Xiao made her stand unabashedly. This is what an elder should say, but Xiao Ying did not express her position. It was already the default posture. Xiao Jingduo was helpless, but Wu Junru's son had the entire Wu family behind him, so Xiao Ying naturally figured out what to do with this deal.

    The old lady and Xiao Ying came to her side one after another, which made Wu Junru feel a little more comfortable, but she is not such a person who is so keen on fame and fortune, so she also declined: "Where did the mother-in-law say, I don't care about the title of the marquis, as long as I can be filial in front of you, I will be satisfied."

    The old lady felt a lot in her heart, she immediately pulled Wu Junru, the two of you came and went to perform the harmony between the aunt and the daughter-in-law, Xiao Ying was thinking about things in her heart, and naturally did not have the patience to listen to them These, so I sat down for a while and took the initiative to leave.

    After Xiao Ying left, Wu Junru was too lazy to act again, and left soon after. After everyone was gone, Mrs. Xiao called her precious grandson Xiao Jinghu over, hugged her in her arms and said, "Hu'er, you see your eldest brother is disobedient, and now he has been sent to the ancestral hall to kneel, you can't allow it So, you have to listen to your grandmother, you know?"

    Xiao Jinghu nodded obediently, the old lady kissed Xiao Jinghu happily, and continued to murmur: "It's a pity that the marquis is your uncle, if your grandfather is here, we can make our tiger the marquis. now..."

    Xiao Jingduo would never have imagined that the series of plans he made for his own identity would actually be regarded by others as his coveted Xiao Ying's marquis. If he had a choice, he would rather not have this father, let alone inherit Xiao Ying's title of Hou. A merciless biological father.

    This goal has always been rooted in Xiao Jingduo's heart, but today, he is kneeling in front of the few tablets in the ancestral hall, but suddenly feels at a loss.

    He was clearly fighting for what should belong to him, but he was punished by his elders to kneel in the ancestral hall. Now he is too weak and he is just claiming Zhao Xiulan's identity. He had to endure Xiao Ying and Wu's anger. Xiao Jingduo once again asked himself in his heart, can he really defeat Xiao Ying? Xiao Ying is a hero of the founding of the country, a second-rank Dingyonghou, and is still serving in the army, but he himself is only nine years old and has no relatives or help. How could he be so vulnerable against Xiao Ying, or even against the Wu family of the great aristocratic family?

    Xiao Jingduo used to think that as long as he passed the imperial examination, he would be an official in the court, but as he learned more about the officialdom, he became more uneasy. The Master Chu told him, let’s not talk about taking one out of a thousand in the scientific examination, even if you are lucky enough to pass the imperial examination, the impoverished children who are unmanned in the court should start from the bottom of the low-level officials and officials, and the rest can only be luck. , If you are lucky, you can stay in the capital for ten or twenty years, and you can stay in the capital to become a fourth- or fifth-rank official. However, children of aristocratic families or descendants of noble families are sheltered by their families, and they can become officials directly without examinations. make it harder.

    Xiao Jingduo naturally does not think that he can rely on the shadow of the door in the future, he has no help, everything can only rely on himself. And when he is alone, when will he grow strong enough to defeat his biological father, Xiao Ying?

    Xiao Jingduo spent three days thinking about this in the ancestral hall.

    The study in the study could not be delayed. Every day after class from the master, Xiao Jingduo would automatically come to the ancestral hall to receive the punishment. People all over the house looked at him with gloating eyes, but Xiao Jingduo turned a deaf ear. Even when he was kneeling in the ancestral hall, he was taking time to recite the lessons of the day.

    However, on the third day, what he was most afraid of finally happened.

      Langjun, go back and see your wife, Madam Hou has gone to Qing Zeyuan to find her!"

    Wu went to find her mother? Xiao Jingduo immediately became serious, and he stood up and walked out regardless of being punished for kneeling.

    Xiao Jingduo walked quickly to Qingze Courtyard. On the way, he took time to ask Qiu Ju, "What's the matter? When did she come and what did she tell her mother?"

    Qiu Ju shook her head: "I don't know, as soon as Mrs. Hou came, I hurried out to find Da Langjun."

    Xiao Jingduo didn't ask any more questions, and hurried to Qing Zeyuan.

    In Qingze Courtyard, Wu Junru walked around in the main room, frowning in disgust: "It's so shabby."

    Zhao Xiulan leaned on the collapse with a sick face, and said to Wu Junru with her aura, "What are you doing?"

     "Master Hou said that he divorced someone eight years ago. Let me see what the widow looked like eight years ago."

    Eight years ago? Zhao Xiulan smiled wryly. It was ridiculous. She just gave birth to Duo Er eight years ago, and she was trying to manage the housework for Xiao Ying's filial in-laws.

    Mother Wei supported Wu Junru and said, "This is the first time this old slave has lived such a long life. Since he was abandoned by his husband's family eight years ago, then Why do you still live in your husband's house and even instruct your son to compete for the title? It's really... people don't know what to say."

    Xiao Jingduo deliberately concealed Zhao Xiulan's punishment of kneeling, so Zhao Xiulan didn't understand what happened, she lowered her head and coughed for a while, and when she calmed down a little, she tried to speak to her son: "Humble talk. There is no instructing Doer, and Doer is not that kind of person."

    Wu Junru sneered and said: "You have said all the good things, even if you don't want to admit it, it doesn't matter, I might as well tell you the truth, the real wife of Dingyong Hou's mansion is me , the serious mother of your precious son is also me, and you can't get anything even if you try your best."

    Wu Junru leaned down, stared into Zhao Xiulan's eyes, and said word by word: "The Marquis and the old lady have already said that the position of the prince in the future can only be my son. You say Xiao Jingduo will have nothing in the future, but he has to call my mother all his life, under my control, will I make him feel better?"

    Zhao Xiulan was in a hurry and trembled: "You..." However, she couldn't go on after she opened her head, Zhao Xiulan felt blood rushing up, her throat was sweet, and then there was a burst of heartbreaking Coughing with split lungs, unable to speak anymore.

    Wu Junru wanted to say something to stimulate Zhao Xiulan, but before she could speak, she heard the courtyard door being slammed open, Wu Junru pouted regretfully.

    Xiao Jingduo quickly ran from the ancestral hall back to Qing Zeyuan. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wu Junru. He looked at this person vigilantly: "What are you doing here?"

    "It's boring." Wu Junru sighed and said, "This lady has to go back to deal with the affairs of the Hou Mansion, so I don't have time to spend with you. Wei Wei..."

    Mother Wei hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "The old slave is here, ma'am."

    "Let's go, I don't want to be in the same room with these country folks anymore."

    "Yes."

    Wu Junru was supported by Wei Wei and went out. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, turned sideways and smiled: "I advise you not to waste your time, Mrs. Hou is mine, the future The title of Marquis Dingyong can only belong to my son, so you should die as soon as possible."

    "That's right, I've been abandoned by my husband's family, but I still have the nerve to live in my husband's house. If it were me, I would have died a long time ago." Wei Wei said.

    "Shut up!" Xiao Jingduo shouted, and then he quickly went to look after Zhao Xiulan, "Mother, don't bother with them, they are here to anger you, don't fall for their trap!"

    "Hey, Lord Lang, please be careful." Wei Wei pretended to persuade Xiao Jingduo, "Da Langjun, you are not too young, you still need to understand basic etiquette. Your mother, only us Only Miss Wu can be, and no one else has the qualifications."

    Sure enough, Zhao Xiulan was even more angry when she heard this sentence, Xiao Jingduo didn't care to refute, and quickly patted Zhao Xiulan on the back. Qiu Ju finally caught up, she just ran into the yard when she heard Zhao Xiulan's coughing, Qiu Ju called out anxiously, "Madam!"

    "Bold!" Wu Junru shouted abruptly, "Only I can be called Mrs., you are a little maid, you dare to commit crimes below. Pass my order to demote this lowly maid as a rough envoy. Girl, send her to the clothes room, drag her out to me now!"

    Several sturdy maids came to pull Qiuju, Qiuju was angry and scared, screaming and crying: "Let go of me, I don't want to go out..."

    The servant girl ignored Qiu Ju's struggle and restrained Qiu Ju with a sneer. The only thing she could hear in the courtyard was Qiu Ju's cry. Wu Junru was standing in the yard with people, and she turned a deaf ear to it. Today, she must break Xiao Jingduo's wings. Do you really think that Wu Junru can't cure him?

    While making a commotion, a voice came from behind, obviously not loud, but strangely overwhelmed Qiu Ju's cry and the servant's scolding, and clearly reached everyone's ears .

    "Stop."

    Xiao Jingduo stood at the door and looked at them coldly.

    "I see who dares!"
