After being married off by my younger sister, I became the most beloved person in the palace

Xie Huaizhi looked confused: "Why do you do this on purpose?"

Xie Jichuan was silent for a moment, then said with a sour look on his face: "To gain sympathy!"

Xie Huaizhi was stunned at first, then he thought of the distressed and anxious look on the face of Princess Mingjun just now, and he was completely stunned.

Can you do this?

Hmm, it seems the effect is quite good.

Xie Jichuan was quite puzzled when he saw his eldest brother suddenly fell into deep thought and looked eager to learn.

Fu Yunjing and Gu Zhiyin returned to the Prince of Pingyang's Mansion and were warmly welcomed.

When Wen saw him being helped out of the car by Gu Zhiyin, looking weak, she immediately stopped smiling and nervously asked, "What's wrong?"

Without waiting for Gu Zhiyin to speak, Fu Yunjing looked at Wen weakly and said, "I'm fine, mother. I'm just a little tired."

"Ah... then go into the house and have a rest." Wen said hurriedly, and then instructed Mother Luo to stew some bird's nest for Fu Yunjing to nourish his body.

Fu Yunjing entered the mansion and saw Xue Chao standing next to Fu Yunyao.

"Why are you here?"

Xue Chao smiled at him elegantly: "This is your first time participating in the scientific examination. As your senior brother, I have to come and show some concern for you."

"Oh!" Fu Yunjing nodded expressionlessly.

Gu Zhiyin glanced at Xue Chao thoughtfully, thinking that it was understandable that you came to care about Fu Yunjing today, but you came to the palace every day in the past few days, and Fu Yunjing was not there at that time.

As she supported Fu Yunjing towards Qingfeng Courtyard, she couldn't help but look back.

Fu Yunyao didn't know what she said to Xue Chao. Xue Chao lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, with a hint of tenderness floating on his handsome face.

Gu Zhiyin suddenly thought of something.

I'm afraid Xue Chao has other intentions than drinking!

……

After the imperial examination, there is the busy process of marking the papers and waiting for the results to be announced.

During this period, the Queen Mother summoned Mrs. Xie Ming, mainly to meet the younger generation of the Xie family.

Mrs. Xie entered the palace with her three sons, eldest daughter-in-law and Zhao Anrou.

Outside the Cining Palace, Yu En respectfully invited the people to the main hall, and then went to report to the empress dowager.

Here, except for Prince Ming who has the privilege of entering and leaving at will without being informed, everyone else has to wait patiently no matter who they want to see, even the Concubine Shu, who is closest to the Empress Dowager in the palace.

The palace maids served tea to each of them, and they sat there stiffly, not daring to show any impatience.

Zhao Anrou clutched the handkerchief nervously, her heart in her throat.

She was born in a commoner family and had lived a miserable life since childhood. After being adopted by the Xie family, she felt that she had fallen into a golden nest and had wealth and honor that she could not even imagine. But now, she is qualified to enter the palace and sit in the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace. In the past, she would not even dare to dream of this.

This is the dignity of flying to the tree and becoming a phoenix.

The daughter of Prince Ming, a mere reader in the Hanlin Academy, is favored by the Empress Dowager. She is the cousin of the Xie family and is a family member of the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager will definitely like her even more.

From now on, I will be on equal footing with the daughter of the Prime Minister.

Zhao Anrou was fantasizing about her future glory in her heart when she suddenly heard greetings coming from outside the palace.

Too late.

Mrs. Xie put down her teacup and stood up.

Seeing this, several people also stood up.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother. May the Queen Mother live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Madam Xie led everyone in paying respect.

The Queen Mother held onto the stepping stone and slowly walked into the main hall: "No need to be polite, everyone please take a seat."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Everyone sat down again, and the Queen Mother looked at the three sons of the Xie family below and said, "In the blink of an eye, they have grown so big that I can't even recognize them."
