Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 264

Qiu Hongyan lived in the east wing and slept until dawn.

However, Shi Anxia and others stayed up all night because someone in Qingpuyuan almost died and there was a big fuss.

The so-called "almost" means that the person did not die. It was all thanks to Shi Anxia who arranged for the guards to patrol and specifically pointed out Qingpuyuan who was paying attention to Qiu Zhiyan.

Last night, Shi Wanqing received news that the "students beat the Dengwen drum" during the competition, and Emperor Mingde promised to investigate thoroughly and reopen the basic examination.

She felt mixed emotions. On the one hand, he was secretly happy that Yunqi Academy was in bad luck, but on the other hand, he was angry that his son's third place result was also invalidated.

Shi Wanqing ran to her son's Qingpu Courtyard in the middle of the night to tell him the news.

Who would have expected that he would catch his son studying hard in the study, and actually fooling around with that shabby girl Bi Luo!

Immediately, blood rushed to his head, his eyes were scarlet as if spitting fire, and he pulled the disheveled Bi Luo off his son like crazy and beat him to death.

Shi Anxia heard a report from the palace guard, saying that her aunt was determined to sink Biluo into the well, but it was only because they went to ask the mistress Yu Sujun to deal with it that no one died.

Shi Anxia knew that in her previous life, Shi Wanqing must have been seen by Qiu Hongyan when she sank Biluo into the well. Something went wrong in the middle, causing Qiu Hongyan to be pushed into the well.

In this life, Bi Luo did not die.

Shi Wanqing asked Lady Ya from the brothel to come and take Bi Luo away early in the morning. It is said that Qiu Zhiyan did not say a word during the whole process, and continued to sit in the study and read and practice calligraphy as usual, as if nothing happened.

When Qiu Hongyan woke up, no one noticed that she had been missing all night because of the chaos there. When she returned to Wisteria Garden, there was no one there, not even the girl was there.

She had no idea that she had just escaped a life-and-death disaster in such a muddle-headed way.

On the same day, Emperor Mingde issued an edict to all major academies to re-open the basic combat examinations three days later, with him taking the lead in supervising the exams.

This time, several people from the Hanlin Academy, the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Rites, and the Department of Academic Affairs, which were originally responsible for formulating the topic, were selected to work on the topic together.

No one can go out in the middle, and they will eat and live together to prevent problems from being revealed.

There are people from Dong Yuwei guarding the outside, so that no moth can fly in, nor can it turn into a butterfly and fly out.

Huang Wanqian and Fang Yuchu were not affected at all and continued to enter and exit Yunqi Academy with a swagger.

Everyone started talking, "What does this mean? Did the two old masters buy any questions for Yunqi Academy?"

"If you didn't buy it, then why did the emperor reopen the basic exam? If you bought it, why didn't you hold the two old masters accountable, and Yunqi Academy wasn't closed down?"

"I can't understand! I really can't understand! But it is true that the emperor intends to protect the two old masters."

"If Yunqi Academy fails to live up to expectations and fails to pass any test again, then it must be a question. So the emperor's meaning is obvious. If you do well in the test this time, you didn't buy a question last time; if your results are poor, you will fail all the questions. If it doesn’t happen, I’ll probably have to give an explanation to all the students, right? The emperor wants to convince the two old masters, right?”

Amid the commotion throughout the capital, the basic exam was resumed three days later.

This time, Yunqi Academy went against the norm and went on a high-profile trip.

Still wearing the blue robe with white trim, and still the same students taking exams.

They didn't even ride in a carriage, but walked. The men's eyebrows were calm and there was no trace of dejection. All of them were in high spirits and radiant.

The difference is that there are three more people in the escort team. One is named Huo Siwu, one is named Feng Min, and the other is named Xing Mingyue.

The two Taishan Beidou did not avoid suspicion and appeared in the team with smiles on their faces. Even several of Zhu Yuxian's teachings were accompanying him, looking unfazed.

Shi Anxia was standing at the gate of the Gongyuan in men's clothing. Seeing an acquaintance crowded in the crowd, she stepped forward and smiled slightly. The laughter was indifferent and cold, "Sister An Xin, can you feel at ease?"
