"The Purple Palace opens in the morning, and the good air follows the early morning."

"The bright banners of the northern palace are still there, and the dawn in the east is new."

"Shadows merge with fragrant mists, and the light shines brightly with auspicious clouds.

"The bird's feathers are beginning to settle, and the dragon's pattern is turning true."

"I doubt the crown and pendants are coming in, but I love the crown and pendants."

"In the swaying auspicious clouds, the courtiers are reflected every morning."

In Jiying Lane, Sheng Mansion, in the study of Sheng Changbai, the second son of the Sheng family, Gu Tingye and Sheng Changbai stood behind Han Ming, whispering a poem written by each other.

"Interesting..." Sheng Changbai muttered to himself.

"I wonder what this poem is called?" Gu Tingye's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but admire it.

"'Morning Light Moves Cuihua'!" Han Ming put down the brush and slowly raised the rice paper.

"The morning light moves Cuihua?" Gu Tingye blinked and looked at Han Ming strangely.

"Haha, I just did it casually, why bother?" Han Ming laughed and brushed the matter off lightly.

After all, the author of this poem is the legendary 'Anonymous', the so-called 'nameless', referring to a person whose identity is unknown or whose name is not yet known.

Originating from ancient times or folk customs, it is unknown who created the literary or musical works that would use "Anonymous" as the author's name.

Including the well-known "Tiao Tiao Qianniuxing" and "Shang Xie", the authors of these are unknown.

Han Ming was also suddenly inspired. Thinking of reading this poem in his previous life, he wrote it down casually. However, looking at the expressions of Gu Tingye and Sheng Changbai, they seemed to find it quite interesting.

"Oh, what's wrong with your brain..." Sheng Changbai said with some envy.

"Comparing myself to him is pure self-destruction. If I have that much time, I might as well find something else to do." Gu Tingye couldn't stand it anymore and shook his head with a wry smile.

"Hey, don't say that. There is only one person like me in this world. I am the only one, and that's me!" Han Ming boasted in a cocky manner.

"Come on, stop bragging. Wait until you get the top spot in the palace examination and get the top three places, then you can brag to us!" Gu Tingye stabbed him without any hesitation.

"Don't worry, I see the world's talents are like putting their heads up for sale..."

Han Ming used the arrogant words that became famous in later generations to express his feelings.

However, Sheng Changbai and Gu Tingye's eyes changed, and they said in unison, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "You are likely to offend people by saying this!"

"Hahahaha..." Han Ming laughed nonchalantly.

"Let's put this aside for now, Zecheng, how is your father doing now?"

Hearing Han Ming bring it up, Sheng Changbai sighed slightly and smiled bitterly: "I don't know. Since you and Princess Pingning sent me the message, more than half a day has passed, and there is still no news from the palace."

"You said, my father..." Sheng Changbai was also a little uncertain.

"In my estimation, nothing should happen. After all, it's been so long. If the government really wants to punish Lord Sheng, they should have let out some news."

"It can't be like now, where nothing is happening."

Gu Tingye stroked his chin and analyzed it carefully.

"Zhong Huai's point is exactly what I want to say. Your Majesty is always a benevolent monarch. No matter what, Lord Sheng is at least not in danger of his life."

After learning the truth, Han Ming had no choice but to follow Gu Tingye's words and simply comfort Sheng Changbai.

The three of them chatted and drank tea in the study, which eased the tense atmosphere a lot.

As a result, Sheng Changbai had just managed to calm down, but the backyard was in complete chaos.

Someone came from the grandmother's courtyard and told Sheng Changbai everything in detail. Sheng Changbai was even more furious. It was really one problem after another.

"We understand what the old lady and the sixth young lady mean. Leave it to me." Gu Tingye took the initiative to take the job and left the Sheng Mansion with Shi Tou to stop the people.

"I'll go too. It's always a good idea to have a backup plan." Han Ming followed behind with Yong Zeng.

"Thank you very much! I'll treat you to a drink when you come back!" Sheng Changbai looked relieved.

On a street outside the Sheng Mansion, two servants were running hurriedly towards Kaifeng Mansion. They didn't notice that there was someone blocking the way in front of them and bumped into him.

"Where are you going?" Gu Tingye asked the two servants with a smile.

Behind him, two big men, Shitou and Yongzeng, rushed out and grabbed one of the two servants by the neck and waist to subdue them.

"Report, report to the police, report to the police!" the two servants stammered.

"Why report to the emperor? Let's go have a drink?" Han Ming said with a wicked smile.

"Let's go, have a drink, let's have a drink..." Gu Tingye also ordered Shi Tou and Yong Zeng with a strange smile on his face, dragging the two servants away.

He easily took the two of them back to Sheng Mansion and handed them over to Sheng Changbai.

"Oh~! Oh~! Thanks so much to both of you." Sheng Changbai quickly called for help to take the person away.

Then he clasped his hands in amazement and thanked Han Ming and Gu Tingye.

"Come on, looking at your wine, we can't finish it. We'd better leave early and let you busy yourself with something else."

Gu Tingye looked at Sheng Changbai speechlessly, then thought of his own family, which seemed to be in all kinds of trouble as well, and sighed helplessly.

"Don't worry, the bridge will be straight when you reach the bow. Lord Sheng, you will be back soon."

"The most important thing now is to calm down and prepare well for the exam. It won't be so easy during the palace examination." Han Ming said to Sheng Changbai with a smile.

"I am very grateful!" Sheng Changbai was pleased that he had two close friends.

"Farewell!"

"gone!"

Han Ming and Gu Tingye went out together and happened to meet Sheng Hualan, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family, who was returning home for a visit.

"Miss!" Gu Tingye clasped his fists and bowed, nodding as a greeting.

"Sister Hualan, it's been a long time since we last met!" Han Ming looked at Hualan and his eyes lit up.

"Hello, Second Young Master Gu, hello, Young Master Han!" Hua Lan bowed to Gu Tingye and Han Ming.

It's just that the address was strange. Gu Er still greeted him politely, but Han Ming seemed to be teasing and intimate.

"Uh (⊙o⊙)... hehe." Han Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

His meeting with Sheng Hualan also mentioned the bride-picking event in Yangzhou.

Because Gu Er didn't understand the situation, he almost used the game of pitching pots to win back Hualan's dowry and betrothal gifts, while Yuan Jia Dalang was even more indifferent.

On the contrary, Han Ming couldn't stand it anymore and was even ready to step in to save Hualan's engagement. However, Minglan took the initiative and stood up for her elder sister, defeating Gu Tingye.

However, because of this, Han Ming was thanked by the Sheng family, especially the siblings Sheng Hualan and Sheng Changbai, who were particularly grateful to Han Ming for speaking out for justice.

As they got to know each other better, Hualan felt that Han Ming was a very interesting boy next door, and gradually became closer to him.

"Since Sister Hualan has returned home, you should go to the backyard and see if the fire is out."

Han Ming also joked and pulled Gu Tingye, who was watching the show, out of Sheng Mansion, leaving Hua Lan standing there, looking at Han Ming's back with a smile.

"After not seeing you for many years, you're still the same..."

After whispering for a while, Hualan turned around and took the maid into the backyard. As soon as they entered the door, they heard Lin Qinshuang's heart-wrenching screams.

"Wang Ruofu, you bitch! You dare to use your son to beat your mother? This is against human ethics. When the master comes back, you will be in trouble!"

It turned out that it was Old Lady Sheng who sent Minglan to pass on a message that there was solid evidence that Lin Qinshuang was having an affair with a man outside her family, but it was hard to say whether there was an affair or not.

He then asked Wang Ruofu, the wife of Shengda, to enforce the family rules and beat Lin Qinshuang with a stick.

Wang Ruofu saw that there was nothing she could do and could not kick this little bitch out of the Sheng family, so she could only vent her anger by beating her with a stick.

In order to disgust Lin Qinshuang even more, Wang Ruofu actually let Sheng Changfeng take charge of the punishment, using the son to beat the mother. Lin Qinshuang was so angry that she started cursing.

After Sheng Changfeng was hit twice with the stick, he burst into tears. Seeing this, Mother Liu snatched the stick and hit him viciously.

Heart-wrenching screams spread throughout the entire backyard of the Sheng Mansion, and Wang Ruofu also breathed a sigh of relief. The resentment of being bullied by Lin Qinshuang for so many years finally came out.

At night, Hua Lan slept in her mother Wang Ruofu's room and had a heart-to-heart talk with her mother.

When talking about her situation in the Earl's Mansion, Hua Lan was always evasive and kept it to herself, not wanting her mother to worry.

But Wang Ruofu was not so stupid after all. She saw that her daughter's mother-in-law was making things difficult for her, and she felt so distressed that she sobbed softly.

On the other side, in the Han Mansion, Han Ming suddenly remembered that Hualan seemed to have a hard time in the Earl's Mansion, and then he thought of the dirty tricks in the plot and smiled secretly.

"Old Sir, don't blame me for being immoral..."
