Quick Wear: The female supporting role makes a comeback by giving birth to a child

The affairs between the Zhou and Tong families came to a temporary end with the death of Zhou Tong.

But the once close relationship between the two families was completely severed.

Although Minister Zhou's health has recovered somewhat after recuperation.

But his physical strength is definitely not as good as before.

The spring examination in March.

Spring blossoms.

Many students from other places came to Beijing one after another, and the bustling capital city, which had just passed the Spring Festival, once again welcomed a wave of crowds.

In the court, there has been a lot of noise recently because of the chief examiner of the Spring Examination.

Qi Yuan also had a headache.

Choosing the examiner for every major examination is always a difficult task.

The Spring Examination is a selection of future talents for the imperial court.

To put it in a broader sense, it can almost be said to be related to the destiny of the country.

As the chief examiner, you must be fair and honest and not let your judgment be influenced by anyone.

In previous years, the selection of the chief examiner would take nearly a month to debate.

Qi Yuan sat on the dragon chair, listening to the noisy noise below, raised his hand to rub his brow, and stood up:

"There is no need to discuss this matter any further. The Crown Prince will be the chief examiner of this spring examination, and the First and Fourth Princes will be deputy examiners. Court is adjourned!"

As expected, the wisest person is still the queen mother.

He has so many sons!

If you don’t use it now, when will you wait?

One by one, they are bored all day long.

As an old father, he is as tired as an ox every day.

Why? !

Qi Yuan strode away, completely ignoring the dumbfounded courtiers in the court and the three brothers who were suddenly entrusted with important tasks.

The eldest prince opened his mouth and was unable to recover for a long time?

No, Father, are you kidding me?

My son only knows martial arts, and knows nothing about literature!

He couldn't believe it and turned his head stiffly, trying to find someone who could persuade his father to give up this terrible idea.

But he was met with the prince's astonished gaze.

The eldest prince came back to his senses instantly: "Humph!"

He turned back neatly.

He is the chief examiner, can he be worse than the crown prince? !

The prince only took advantage of his status to get the position of chief examiner, which put him above him.

snort!

The eldest prince was not convinced. After thinking about it, he was unwilling to even stand with the crown prince.

Fortunately, the court was over, so he simply turned around and left.

The fourth prince Qi Zhen also reacted quickly.

But he had learned not to show his emotions on his face, so no one noticed anything unusual.

However, the steps that stepped out of the Qianqing Palace seemed a little frivolous.

When the prince saw that his two brothers had left, he was stunned for a moment.

When he came to his senses, he met the excited eyes of the court officials.

Prince:......

He immediately turned around, pretending not to see it, and quickly walked away, "Fourth brother, wait for me, Second brother has something to tell you."

All three parties have left.

A group of court officials looked at each other in bewilderment, and finally could only sigh helplessly: "Let's go too. There are still a lot of things to do in the government office!"

So, they went to court in groups of three or five.

But everyone's expression showed a bit of admiration and helplessness.

As they were fighting over the matter, they didn't expect that His Majesty would suddenly take an unconventional approach.

None of them thought of using the princes.

After all, the princes are still young.

But in this case, they didn't dare to fight anymore.

After all, regardless of the identities of the three people, they have natural advantages, and His Majesty is the one who has the final say.

As for the selection of these three candidates, they couldn't say much.

After all, the only adult princes under His Majesty's knees are the eldest prince and the crown prince.

Although the third prince is almost 15 years old this year, he is not a competitive person.

The fourth prince is only 14 years old.

The other princes were younger.

The astute court officials would not choose to take sides at this time.

The chief examiner for the Spring Examination has been decided.

Next comes the selection of examiners.

This matter has been handled by the Ministry of Rites in previous years. Qi Yuan just gave the order and no longer cared about it.

It's March with warblers flying and grass growing.

There was a long queue outside the Imperial Examination Hall.

This dynasty's spring examination lasts for three days.

Most of the students were able to persevere.

On the day when the results were announced, Xin Guoguo suddenly got excited and took Xiao Shisi, and Xiao Si, who had come to see her under the pretext of seeing Xiao Shisi, out of the palace together.

This time, she didn't try to hide her identity.

I asked Cuizhu to arrange a box with the best view so that we can watch the crowd watching the list below.

The official who brought the good news has already set out.

The top three on the list will take part in the palace examination tomorrow.

In the palace examination, the emperor would select the top three.

After noon tomorrow, the top three candidates chosen by the emperor will put on new robes and ride on horses in a parade through the streets.

Cuizhu accompanied her master to the window and listened to the cheers and sighs from below.

Some people left sadly and prepared to return home.

Some people ran and jumped excitedly and went home to tell the good news to their elders.

"Master, the second son of the Wu family has passed the exam!"

The Wu family is Concubine Wu’s maternal family, and the family her younger sister married into.

Xin Guoguo was not surprised to hear the good news, and just asked calmly: "What was your ranking in the exam?"

"One armor, seventy-six."

Xin Guoguo nodded: "He was a slow learner before, but now he is making progress and his achievements are quite good. Cuizhu, have someone prepare a gift to send over."

"Here."

Wu family.

Wu Xin is now the mistress of the house.

After her mother-in-law passed away the year before last, she no longer had to act according to her mother-in-law's mood.

Her life finally became comfortable.

However, she has always been worried about her second son.

The eldest son will definitely inherit the family business in the future.

But the second child plays all day long and has no ambition at all.

Wu Xin was worried that her second son would be controlled after she passed away.

But unexpectedly, at the end of last year, my second son suddenly came to his senses and started to make progress.

He also said that he would take part in this year's scientific expedition.

People like theirs don't need to take part in any examinations for becoming a student or a scholar.

But this child who has never liked studying suddenly wants to take part in the Spring Examination. Even though Wu Xin has an extra thick motherly filter for her son, she has to say that she doesn't believe it.

But there is no way.

Who said this was her own son? !

She could only go along with it.

Unexpectedly, the child gave her such a big surprise.

First class!

Even though the ranking is not high, it is clear that I have passed the exam!

After Wu Xin sent away the official who brought the good news, she immediately asked people to buy firecrackers and open the ancestral hall to comfort her ancestors.

Lord Wu was also very pleased.

He personally went to open the ancestral hall and took his second son in to burn incense.

At this moment, Wu Xinshi was already asking people to start preparing the banquet.

His son passed the exam!

She wished she could just set up a buffet for seven days and seven nights.

However, this idea was rejected by his master.

But a celebration banquet is essential.

Wu Xin was busy running around excitedly, not feeling tired at all. Instead, she was full of energy.

When the gifts from the palace arrived, she was even more delighted and in high spirits.

When Concubine Wu heard that her younger brother had passed the imperial examination, she was also very happy.

But her health was not very good and she would cough uncontrollably when she got excited.

The servants took care of her and advised her: "My lady, please take a rest. I will take care of these things."

Concubine Wu waved her hand and said, "I will personally prepare a gift for my brother. This is my sincere wish."
