Today is a sunny day with clear skies. It is an exciting day - the winter examination is finally over and the results will be announced soon.

After Shen Jingyi had breakfast, she couldn't wait to sit in front of the window.

I looked out the window from time to time, as if I could wait for someone to come and bring me the good news.

She hoped to get good news as soon as possible and became increasingly anxious.

Nanny Qin on the side looked at her and couldn't help laughing: "Concubine, they should still be concentrating on answering questions in the palace hall!

How can the results be announced so quickly? "

Shen Jingyi gently touched her bulging belly, her heart filled with nervousness and anticipation.

Although she knew that Lin Shuyun was talented and capable, she still couldn't help but worry.

She retracted her gaze and replied somewhat helplessly: "I know, but I just can't help it."

After thinking for a while, she continued, "I don't know how my cousin did in the exam. Will he be nervous?"

Nanny Qin quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, concubine.

Young Master Biao was taught by your grandfather himself, so how could his talent be poor? Wait patiently.

There will be good news by noon."

Shen Jingyi nodded and sighed: "Of course I know, but waiting is the most exhausting thing."

As noon approached, Shen Jingyi became more anxious.

She was already pacing back and forth in the room, looking out the window from time to time.

Just then, there was a sound of footsteps at the door. Shen Jingyi's heartbeat quickened and she quickly turned around to look towards the door.

Seeing King Xuan slowly walk in, her heart tightened, and she hurried forward to greet him: "Your Highness, how did my cousin...do in the exam?"

King Xuan smiled slightly, his face full of joy: "Congratulations, Yi'er! Lin Shuyun passed the exam and ranked first! The number one scholar chosen by our father."

"Really?" Shen Jingyi's heart was shocked, and then she was filled with endless joy. The corners of her mouth involuntarily curled up into a smile, "He really did it!"

Then, she asked excitedly, "So will we still have a parade for the top three candidates today?"

"Yes, it will start soon." King Xuan replied gently.

Shen Jingyi felt disappointed because she was pregnant and couldn't go to participate in this grand celebration. But she really wanted to go.

She felt a little sad and asked, "But I..." Her voice gradually trailed off and she became hesitant.

King Xuan seemed to see through her thoughts and comforted her softly, "Yier, you are pregnant now, it is not convenient for you to go out.

Moreover, at this time, the streets are probably already crowded with people.

You'd better rest at home.

Shuyun passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer. There will be a celebratory banquet in the evening, so I might come back very late tonight.

I will live in the front yard and won't come back.

So that I won’t let the smell of alcohol on me bother you anymore.”

"Okay then! For the sake of the children, I won't go out, and you should drink less at night."

Shen Jingyi lowered her head, her heart full of regret.

This is a parade of top scholars! And it’s our own top scholar.

I've only seen it on TV before, and I don't know if it's the same.

King Xuan smiled and touched Shen Jingyi's head, "Just stay at home and be good."

Then he gently touched her belly and said softly, "You should be good too."

This time the child may have understood, and he was gently kicked in the palm of his hand, and he clearly felt it.

"Haha..." He patted his stomach twice more in a good mood. Seeing that there was no reaction this time, he left in a good mood.

Shen Jingyi looked at his back as he left and shook her head helplessly.

This man is really becoming more and more childish, but it’s okay this way, at least it shows that he is very happy now.

After Prince Xuan left, Nanny Qin, Chuntao and other people in the room came to congratulate Shen Jingyi: "Congratulations, concubine, congratulations to the young master for winning the first place in the imperial examination."

Everyone in the courtyard who got the news came to express their gratitude.

For a while, Shen Jingyi's surroundings were very lively, which made her feel a little better about not being able to go out.

Seeing that everyone was genuinely happy for her, she simply waved her hand generously and said, "This month, everyone will receive two extra months' salary."

This became even more lively, and a new round of thanks began.

Everyone was smiling happily, saying auspicious words, and their faces were filled with joy.

Shen Jingyi looked at their happy faces and felt a warm feeling in her heart.

After nightfall, Shen Jingyi always felt uneasy and her right eye kept twitching.

I tossed and turned in bed, but couldn't fall asleep.

She pinched the ring on her chest and sat up.

He murmured to himself, "Could something have happened?"

As soon as this thought came to my mind, I felt my heart beating faster.

No, she had to go and see.
