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

Chapter 77

In the Prince Jin's Mansion, there was the sound of silk and bamboo, singing and dancing.

Tonight is the day when His Royal Highness the King of Jin entertains his staff. As the New Year approaches, the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

At this moment, a young scribe came forward and handed in a letter of resignation.

His Highness Prince Jin's smile froze on his face, "Shi Yunqing, do you want to resign?"

Shi Yunqing stepped forward and bowed his hands, "His Royal Highness, King Jin, Yun Qing is not very talented and has little knowledge, so he can no longer help His Highness. My father has ordered me to attend the Spring Festival next year, work hard to obtain merit, and serve the imperial court."

After hearing this, everyone showed strange expressions.

Many of the people here have failed in previous examinations, so they know how difficult it is to break out of a tight siege from thousands of troops.

None of them got good grades in the exams, so how could this young boy get the honors and brazenly talk about serving the imperial court?

Besides, it’s not like that kid hasn’t failed the list before, he talks as if he will definitely get into high school next year. Haha…

A scribe who was about the same age as Shi Yunqing came out and said jokingly, "Brother Yunqing, I'm afraid you didn't resign just for spring, right?"

Shi Yunqing frowned and asked, "Brother Yongchang, what do you mean by this?"

"Don't you understand in your heart?" Zheng Yongchang's mouth evoked a hint of malice, "Isn't it because Brother Yunqing feels that it is more comfortable to be the staff of His Highness Prince Jin rather than being the uncle of His Highness Prince Jin?"

Shi Yunqing's expression suddenly changed, "Zheng Yongchang, I have no enmity with you, so please be careful with what you say!"

Zheng Yongchang laughed loudly, "Didn't you, the Marquis of the Shi family, already make such wild claims that your daughter will be the Princess of Jin? Why, are you going to admit it? You should just let yourselves say it, and we passers-by are not allowed to watch!"

Shi Yunqing was extremely embarrassed. He had been busy recently and had not paid attention to the rumors at all.

His Highness King Jin was very curious, "Who will be my King's Princess Jin?"

Zheng Yongchang quickly stopped laughing and replied respectfully, "Of course she is the legitimate granddaughter of the Hou family! There are only two legitimate granddaughters of the Hou family. One is the eldest daughter of the eldest family, Shi Anxin, and the other is the eldest daughter of the second family, Shi Anxia. According to rumors , it was a mother in the Hou Mansion who shouted that her daughter was going to be the Princess of Jin soon. According to what I saw, the only one who could say this was Shi Anxia's mother. Because Shi Anxia's mother died young and is no longer here."

"Oh?" Jin Wang Xiao Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Shi Anxia? That's a good name."

Shi Yunqing was anxious and secretly cursed the Hou Mansion for doing such bad things.

He was the distant cousin who sent An Rou back to the Hou Mansion that night.

A few days ago, the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, Shi Chengyi, suddenly came to his father and asked him to leave His Highness Prince Jin and stop being an aide. He also said that the Minghou Mansion will soon open a clan school and will invite great scholars to give lectures and help the children of the Shi family to achieve great success in the spring of the coming year.

He did have some talent, but it was hard to make a name for himself in the capital with the little he had learned.

Judging from the rankings of previous examinations, those who can firmly rank in the top ten are, without exception, either the sons of aristocratic families or those who have studied in famous academies or academies.

It is a miracle that those who come to Beijing from other places and do not seek guidance from a good teacher can be listed on the list.

In particular, the North Wing Popular Ethnology Competition will be in full swing one after another after the new year, and will continue until spring.

Shi Yunqing had passed the exam the year before last and failed. He has never been in a clan school and has never participated in any competition.

So the uncle of the Hou family came over and said that although his father was a little hesitant, he was immediately moved, so he wrote this resignation letter.
