Becoming a widow for the sake of good fortune? The short-lived prince lived a hundred years

Seeing Chu Jinxun's expression normal again, calmly putting the blood-stained handkerchief into his sleeve, the Third Prince could no longer hold back: "Fifth brother, you're coughing up blood, why don't you call the imperial physician?"

Chu Jinxun shook his head and waved his hands, his voice weak and a little breathless: "If that's the case, then please ask for the imperial physician. I have... cough cough cough... We need an imperial physician to stay in the mansion permanently, cough cough cough..."

The third prince didn't know what to say for a moment.

Chu Jinxun said calmly: "It's okay, I'm used to it. It's not contagious and it won't affect my breakfast with Third Brother!"

The Third Prince's face turned green. He forced a smile, stood up, and said, "Fifth Brother, your health is already so poor, you should go back and rest! You can have breakfast anytime, but if you ask your sick brother to eat breakfast with me, then I, as your brother, am being inconsiderate!"

Watching the Third Prince leave in a hurry, Chu Jinxun slowly pulled out the handkerchief from his sleeve again, sniffed it, and wrinkled his nose: "This fishy smell is a bit strong, exaggerated!"

Taking another look at the exquisite food box, he walked over and patiently opened it layer by layer.

The aroma hits your nostrils.

Date cake, Qionghua Yingyue exquisite cake, Qiqiao pastry, and Hua Kai Fugui...

Each layer is different, all are steaming, delicate and small, and extremely beautiful pastries.

He turned to Jingfeng and asked, "Is our palace so poor now that we have to rely on others to buy cakes for the princess?"

Jing Feng tried to test it out: "Then let's buy cakes for the princess every morning?"

"Every morning, four dishes each time, rotating!" Chu Jinxun responded, closed the lunch box, and handed it to Jingfeng: "Ask Zhou Chunhe to take a look first. If it's not poisonous, you can share it and eat it!"

Jingfeng laughed secretly, the prince is angry! No, the prince is jealous!

No matter what the Third Prince is capable of, he can't possibly poison someone here.

However, he still answered seriously, "Yes!" and went to find Zhou Chunhe!

Chu Jinxun walked towards the dining hall, but didn't see Yan Xining. Wu Yuxing asked, "Prince, are you serving breakfast?"

"Where's the princess?"

"The princess has returned to Qingwu Courtyard!"

"She didn't come over just now?"

Wu Yuxing was startled: "No, does the princess have any instructions?"

"Then send these breakfasts to Qingwu Courtyard. I will have breakfast there!"

The corners of Chu Jinxun's lips curled up. Xining and he really had a mutual understanding, and he knew that Chu Feici would not stay long.

However, Chu Feici was so free that he even had time to deliver cakes to Prince An's Mansion.

He stopped and said, "Let Chu Feici meet up with his three close female friends! It will be more lively with more people!"

"Yes!" Someone answered, but did not appear in front of him.

Chu Jinxun then hurried to Qingwu Courtyard.

But his smile slowly faded. He really didn't remember anything about what happened yesterday when he was drunk. Xining didn't look him in the eye today and left quickly. Could it be that he did something to make Xining angry?

Thinking of this, his pace slowed down a lot.

Arriving at Qingwu Courtyard, he watched the maids leave after delivering breakfast, then glanced at Wu Yuxing standing outside the courtyard. He said, "Send Chief Secretary Bao to Third Brother's residence! Say, 'Third Brother has sent many gifts and visited us, and we are deeply grateful. However, the palace has nothing of value, so we are sending you our most capable Chief Secretary as a token of our appreciation!'"

"Yes!"

In the dining hall of Qingwu Courtyard, Yan Xining was not surprised to see the maids entering one after another carrying food boxes.

I guess the third prince has already left.

She could see that Chu Jinxun and the third prince seemed to be on good terms with each other, and that they were like brothers.

But the royal brothers really have no affection for each other. Every time the third prince comes, he does not come with any good intentions.

This time it was even more inexplicable, they sent cakes.

Did he know that Guanxiang Garden belonged to him, or did he know and deliberately buy cakes from Guanxiang Garden and send them to him?

She felt that Chu Jinxun would definitely ask the people to leave soon, so after saying that he was going to serve breakfast, she went straight back to Qingwu Courtyard.

But unexpectedly, the third prince left faster than she imagined.

And the breakfast was passed to her.

She stroked her forehead. Last night, the drunk Chu Jinxun was really difficult to deal with. He was a cute and fierce little puppy, tall and soft, easy to push over. He took advantage of the alcohol to do whatever he wanted. It was hard to resist!

However, drunk people seem to lose their memory, so she should just pretend nothing happened!

In the following time, the third prince never came to Prince An's Mansion again.

He is very busy.

He loved literature and poetry, and was accomplished in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He was a lover of poetry and wine, and naturally had many female friends.

But he is a gentleman and considers himself a gentleman.

He settled three of his confidantes in different places. He treated them with such deep affection that each of them thought she was his only one and dreamed of becoming his wife.

The third prince was originally able to juggle these three relationships with ease, but he did not expect that one day, when he was boating on the lake with one of them, he happened to meet the other two.

This was a serious matter. The balance he had carefully maintained was broken at this moment.

The three of them rushed to him and cried, "Your Highness, didn't you say you only loved me? How could you be with them..." Each of them was in tears, sobbing uncontrollably, the beauties shed tears, feeling resentful and sad.

It is said that what happened that day was very exciting. In the end, the third prince took all three of them into the palace as concubines.

The one kept outside is an elf, the white moonlight.

He was detained in the backyard of the palace, and no one knew what would happen to him.

It was just a drama between three women. In the past, the Third Prince faced each of them one by one. He was a love saint and could make them fall in love with him through his words. But now he faced them all together, and the palace was bustling all day long.

Even Emperor Yongxi heard about it and reprimanded him, telling him to focus on carefully examining the qualifications of the tribute scholars for the palace examination.

Less than a month after the joint examination, it was time for the palace examination.

Yan Xining is also looking forward to this day.

If a top scholar really emerges from the scholars living in the Zhuangyuan Building, then they will make a fortune from now on!

There were a total of 287 candidates who took part in the palace examination, and Emperor Yongxi set the questions himself.

After the policy essay was completed, Emperor Yongxi casually selected a few tribute scholars to answer questions.

After the results of the palace examination were announced, Emperor Yongxi specially allowed the top three candidates to wear flowers and ride horses in a parade!

Outside the palace, people had already gathered to watch the excitement. As the gongs and drums began to sound, Yan Xining left early again. She sat down on the second floor of a teahouse on the route the parade was supposed to take and ordered a pot of tea.

She wasn't wearing men's clothes today.

She came to watch the fun.

She thought, Yuan Yiming ranked fourth in the examination, if he could move up one place this time, he would be the third place.

Only good-looking ones can become the third place in the imperial examination, and Yuan Yiming's looks are perfect.

The sound of gongs and drums gradually approached, and an official banged the gong and shouted, "The top scholar is parading through the streets!"

Someone shouted, "Here they come, here they come!"

Looking up, the streets were bustling with activity. As if drawn by an invisible force, the people rushed towards the direction where the procession was about to appear, crowding the already narrow streets.

After a while, the parade of the top scholar appeared in everyone's sight, and at the front was a guard of honor in uniform.

Yan Xining looked down from above and looked directly at the faces of the three people riding on the tall horses!
