Spring Drunk Chang'an

Chapter 96: Chilled and Excited

Xia Mu left angrily, with huge waves in his heart.

however……

No one cares about him.

His mood, his unwillingness, and his anger did not cause any unusual reaction, and everyone in the Ningguo Mansion remained the same.

The news that Liu Wang'er had passed the imperial examination slowly spread.

The maids and servants in the main courtyard of the Ningguo Mansion also received the good news.

"Congratulations, Chang'an, no, I have to call you Sister Xiucai now!" Rong Cui walked forward and teased with a smile.

Liu Changan was holding the basket, and he said politely and happily, "No, no, Sister Cui, what are you saying? You are too polite."

"Come, come, my mother has prepared some wedding fruits, everyone please try some and share in the joy."

She opened the basket, took out the red fruits and distributed them to everyone.

The servants in the main courtyard were very polite and came forward happily to take it, saying auspicious words.

"I remember when Wang'er first left the house, he was still a little kid, as shy as a young lady. I never thought that in just over half a year, he'd become a scholar!"

"It changes so fast!" Rong Cui held the fruit, her face full of emotion.

Liu Changan lowered his eyes.

Who said no?

More than half a year ago, when she was reborn, she never imagined that there would be so many differences between this life and her previous life.

Liu Qingru's backer - His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has become her support. Liu Wenbai, who is as arrogant as a mountain and regards himself as a god and others as ants, has become her illegitimate child. Liu Wenrui, who scares her the most, is her partner.

“Times are changing so fast!”

Liu Changan sighed softly and was about to say something when Song waved at her through the window in the room, "Changan, come in, I have something to tell you!"

"Hey, here I come!" Seeing this, Liu Changan quickly calmed down and waved to Rong Cui, "Sister, the Madam called me, I'll talk to you later."

"Go quickly, go quickly, I won't keep you any longer!" Rong Cui responded quickly.

Liu Chang'an, carrying the basket, stepped over the threshold into the main room, then turned and entered the inner bedroom. She came to Song Shi and bent her knees before asking, "Madam, what do you want to call me for?"

Her voice was soft.

The smile is very sweet.

I feel very excited.

Whenever she thought about Wang'er passing the imperial examination and embarking on a path completely different from her previous life, she felt happy.

Obviously, her good mood also affected Song Shi. Song Shi's melancholy eyes were stained with a hint of smile. She said, "Chang'an, the news that Wang'er passed the examination has spread throughout the mansion. This is a great thing. Although you didn't tell me the good news, I still want to share in the joy!"

After saying that, she turned around, opened the cabinet and took something out.

Seeing this, Liu Changan quickly explained, "Madam, it's not that we don't want to tell you, but..."

"I know, you're afraid I'll think of Yu'er and feel sad!" Song sighed, rummaging through the cabinets as she said, "After the Spring Examination, it's the Autumn Examination. This year's exam... Liu Wenbai is also going to participate."

"My brother taught him how to study, and he spent so much time studying at the Imperial College. Everyone says he's talented and will pass the imperial examination!"

"Haha, he was taught by my brother and got the place in the Imperial College that belonged to my son, so he rose to prominence. But Yu'er, Yu'er..."

"Even for such a small wish as to participate in Moko, he was suppressed and humiliated by Qu Qiutong!"

Song gritted her teeth and said harshly.

Hatred flashed in his eyes and his face twisted for a moment.

For a mother, hurting her child is worse than hurting herself. She hated Liu Xiu deeply.

I hate him so much that my teeth itch whenever I think of him.

It’s really a good thing that the prince transferred him out of the capital, otherwise, Song couldn’t imagine how she would lose control of herself when she returned to Ningguo Mansion and faced that damn man?

Maybe you would want to die with him?

Liu Changan bit her lip, looking at the usually gentle and weak Song Shi, who was filled with murderous intent and coldness. She couldn't help but cough lightly and whispered worriedly, "Well, Madam, you, please relax a little. I believe things will not always be like this."

"Your Highness, Duke Song, and His Majesty Song are all working hard. They are so capable, they will definitely come up with a solution soon. You and Master Yu..."

And I!

"You won't have to suffer for too long, they will help you..." and mine.

She advised sincerely.

Song lowered her eyes, her expression still gloomy, but she forced a smile on her lips, as if to comfort Liu Changan, "Okay, okay, I get it, and I believe them too!"

"Changan, you don't have to worry about me. I'm in my thirties and I know what I should do!"

She patted Liu Chang'an's hair gently with a gentle expression, then took out a small sandalwood box from the cabinet, placed it on her knees, and reached out to open it.

"Okay, let's not talk about those unhappy things. We are obviously talking about Wang'er. He passed the examination for the title of Scholar. I heard that in this autumn's examination, he will also take the examination for the title of Juren, right?"

The scholar takes the exam once a year, and the juren takes the exam once every three years!

This year happens to be the year when the two subjects overlap.

It is May now, the spring examination has just ended, and the autumn examination will be in September. Those who pass will be called Juren. If Juren want to continue to take the next exam, they will have to take the Jinshi examination in November.

"Wang'er intended to take the exam, but he didn't expect to pass. However, since we all live in the capital, we don't need to travel as far as students from other places. So he decided to try and gain some experience!" Liu Chang'an whispered, unable to help but laugh. "That's what the teacher who taught him told him."

"That gentleman said that Wang'er's academic performance is uncertain. If he meets someone who likes his writing style, he might get a low score. If not, he will fail the exam. However, he is young, only fifteen, so there is no need to rush."

"I've already taken the exam and endured the punishment, so why should I hope to fail?" Song said softly, poking Liu Chang'an's forehead with her fingertips. She said, "Don't say such discouraging words!"

"Since Wang'er has worked hard and has talent, we should do our best to help him!"

"Here, take this!"

As she spoke, she handed over the box.

Liu Changan took it and asked curiously, "Madam, what's in it?"

"It's the letter I wrote and my seal!" Song sighed. "I'll give you leave. Take this and bring Wang'er to the Cheng'en Mansion to find my brother!"

"The teacher at our capital's provincial academy is an old Jinshi (academic scholar) with great knowledge. However, the capital is under the emperor's feet, so there are many successful candidates. It's overflowing with talented people. I've inquired, and there are already nineteen students who have entered the provincial academy this lifetime, and there are even more who have been left over from previous exams and haven't yet passed."

"There are 134 scholars and 31 juren in the provincial school."

"There are too many students, and not enough teachers. Everyone's progress is different, and Wang'er's foundation is weak. He will inevitably not be able to adapt to the provincial school. So, I'm looking for a 'master' for him as a gift for his success in the imperial examination!"

"How do you like it?"
