Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Qin Xiangheng naturally thought of this as well. He almost didn't even have the chance to participate in the imperial examination, but fortunately his maternal grandfather stepped in to help him, which allowed him to continue participating.

If this matter involves him, then he's truly finished!

"You need to find a way to handle this matter properly, and no matter what, you absolutely cannot involve me, understand?"

Qin Xiangheng's eyes were cold. He had a bright future ahead of him, how could he let these fools delay it?

Qin Shuangshuang felt slightly dissatisfied when she saw that he had shifted all the responsibility onto her, but in order to calm Qin Xiangheng down, she nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, your parents and I will figure out what to do. Just focus on your exam."

Song Ruozhen skillfully treated Yun Chengze's wound before watching Song Yi'an and Yun Chengze enter the examination hall together.

"Master, my cousin is injured. I hope you can take good care of him." Yun Nianchu's eyes were full of worry as she bowed deeply to the Master.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful," Master Wei nodded in agreement.

As the candidates entered the examination hall, the crowd outside gradually dispersed.

"Third Brother, have you caught anyone?" Song Ruozhen asked.

Song Zhiyu nodded, "We caught a few and sent them directly to Shuntian Prefecture. I remember your instructions earlier, so I didn't explain this matter in front of everyone just now."

The Shuntian Prefecture is taking this matter very seriously, and besides, I don't think those guys are particularly loyal; they should confess soon.

The reason I didn't say it in front of so many people was because I was worried that if I did, Qin Shuangshuang and the others would take immediate action.

Since they are not clear about the situation now, they are not in such a hurry and need to spend time finding out more.

By the time they realized what was happening, it was too late.

"Ruozhen, how did you know about this?" Yun Nianchu couldn't help but ask in surprise. "If it weren't for Brother Song's timely arrival, my cousin would have missed the imperial examination today."

"Qin Xiangheng was wary of my second brother's talent, and when he attacked him with bricks, he had the idea of ​​killing him."

If my second brother can't participate in the imperial examination, the only person left who could threaten his results is Young Master Yun. It seems like a risky move, but the chances of success are quite high.

Yun Nianchu also came to her senses at this moment, "That's exactly what you were worried about, which is why you specifically reminded us to take a different route today."

“Not bad.” Song Ruozhen nodded.

"But we didn't tell anyone else about this. They were waiting on another road. We had only gone a short distance when they caught up with us. Why is that?"

Yun Nianchu lowered her head in thought, then suddenly remembered that she had bumped into Yun Xiwan when she went out earlier today, and instantly understood.

"It must be Yun Xiwan!"

“If it were any other day, she would have tried her best to come with us if she had seen us. But her reaction today was quite strange. She was looking away and speaking haltingly. She was clearly testing whether we had left early.”

I didn't think much of it at the time; I was just afraid that she was the only one who could have tipped me off!

Yun Nianchu grew angrier the more she thought about it. "My cousin has always treated her well. Even though she's engaged to Qin Xiangheng, she's already conspiring with them to turn against her own people before she's even married into the family!"

"She may not consider you one of her own."

Song Ruozhen's eyes were cold and clear. Yun Xiwan was a shrewd and calculating person. Like her mother, she was eager to suppress Yun Nianchu and Madam Yun.

Now that she's going to marry Qin Xiangheng, she naturally wants to smooth things over for him. Once she becomes an official's wife, all the ridicule she faces now will be nothing.

"I can't swallow this insult. I demand an explanation!"

Yun Nianchu's face turned ashen. This matter could not be tolerated. Her cousin studied late into the night for the imperial examinations, never slacking off even in winter. She admired him and felt sorry for him.

Having waited so long for this day, how could we allow Yun Xiwan to ruin it?

"Since you all know about this matter, the Shuntian Prefecture will not be negligent and will surely find the mastermind behind it soon, so you don't need to worry."

The Qin family values ​​Qin Xiangheng highly. Once this matter is involved, they will likely try every means to frame your family. You might want to discuss a strategy with your aunt.”

Song Ruozhen's eyes were serious. Madam Yun was a smart woman, and now that such a good handle had fallen into her hands, she naturally couldn't waste it.

“I understand.” Yun Nianchu understood. “Ruozhen, when did you become so smart? After the annulment of the engagement, you’ve really unlocked your full potential. I can’t help but admire you.”

Song Ruozhen chuckled, "You were out of your mind before, but you're not like that now."

If her luck hadn't been suppressed, the original owner wouldn't have made the move to give herself to the Lin family. Now that she has broken through everything, those things from the past will definitely not happen again.

As Chu Junting listened to Song Ruozhen's words, a low chuckle escaped his throat. Just from the girl's expression, he could tell how much she regretted what had happened back then.

"Your Highness, did you come here today because you have a favorite candidate?"

Song Ruozhen looked at Chu Junting curiously. He didn't need to come to send someone to the exam, so why did he come here specifically?

Chu Junting coughed lightly and said, "My father has always attached great importance to the imperial examinations, so I came here today to take a look. I never expected to find someone engaging in malicious competition. I will urge Shuntian Prefecture to handle this matter."

"Make an example of them to deter others and prevent future trouble!"

"Your Highness is truly a man of great principle."

Song Ruozhen had no doubts. The Emperor always valued the selection of talented people, so it was not unreasonable for him to specially send Chu Junting. It was just that the princes in the court were not good, and it was such a coincidence that Chu Junting was chosen.

With his supervision, the case will likely be investigated much faster.

"I will keep my promise tonight," Chu Junting said.

Song Ruozhen understood, "Okay."

He Xiangning happened to overhear their conversation from the crowd, and her heart was immediately filled with joy.

"That slut Song Ruozhen only knows how to seduce men. Not only did she seduce Young Master Xu, but she also made an appointment with the Prince of Chu at night."

Tonight I'll show Young Master Xu just how wanton this slut is. She's no match for him!

Song House.

When Song Ruozhen and Song Yi'an returned, they discovered that guests had arrived, and they could hear the noise coming from inside even before they arrived.

"Sister, I'm not trying to be mean, but you didn't tell us anything about Yi'an's eyes being cured beforehand. Aren't you making Father and Mother feel heartbroken?"

Liu Feiyan's eyes were filled with disappointment. "Last time I begged you to help Hanfei, but you refused. Could it be that you really hold a grudge against me because of that charlatan, and you don't even trust your parents anymore?"

"Ruyan, we've already explained things clearly. It was all a misunderstanding. Are you going to distance yourself from us because of this?" Mother Liu said sadly.

"No." Liu Ruyan shook her head. "Yi'an's eyes were just healed. I wasn't sure if it was really effective before, and I was afraid that telling you would only make you feel disappointed."

It's not too late to find out today; I'm sure Mother and Sister are happy for us too.
