The maids outside heard the sound of the bronze mirror shattering from inside, and they came in again and again, and they were more and more surprised to see Lu Chen's maids...

Why is His Royal Highness here?

Lu Chen glanced at the shards of the bronze mirror on the ground, frowned and said to Qiao Jinniang: "Brother Tuan will soon be three years old, and Father has proposed a few names. Take a look, which one will you choose?"

Qiao Jinniang glanced at the note that Lu Chen took out, thought for a while and said, "That's it, Lu Xi."

"Brother Tuan's birthday party, are you coming?"

Qiao Jinniang said, "I will go."

Even if she doesn't like the palace banquet, she will never miss Brother Tuan's birthday banquet.

After Lu Chen left, Qiao Jinniang said to the maidservants, "Don't tell anyone that the Crown Prince has come here."

Hong Ling's leader should be, "Don't worry, girl."

After Lu Chen left the Hou Mansion, he went to the Zhou Mansion to drink with Zhou Siming.

Zhou Siming saw that Lu Chen was drinking one cup after another of spirits, and said to Lu Chen, "Your Highness will have a palace exam tomorrow, if you get drunk, I'm afraid it's not right."

"How can I be inferior to that ordinary-looking and talented Li Yun?"

Lu Chen drank another glass of wine while talking.

Zhou Siming said: "If Your Highness wants a woman, just ask His Majesty to issue an imperial decree. Why bother to drink away your worries like this."

Lu Chen said slightly drunkenly: "You don't understand her, she has a stubborn temper, she will take soft things rather than hard things, if you force her, she might be destroyed.

You don't even know that she was only fifteen at the time, and she dared to lead a group of servants from a restaurant and almost beat someone to death.

When she was six or seven months pregnant, she still held up the door latch to fight with the refugees, her temper was hardened. "

Zhou Siming: "..."

Such a temperamental girl can still let his cousin, who has been noble since birth, drink away her sorrows for her.

...

Qiao Ruofeng was hired by a relative from the old lady's natal side.

Recently, when I came to Chang'an to visit the old lady during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I happened to have a crush on Qiao Ruofeng.

That relative's family is a merchant, so it's not easy to marry a rich lady who is an official, and he doesn't care about Qiao Ruofeng's imprisonment.

As for the matter of King Yong, the old lady and Qiao Ruofeng did not let outsiders know about it, and they did not lose face.

After all, Qiao Ruofeng's second wife has already separated, so there is no need to line up in an orderly manner. The anxious decision to get married is just an excuse Qiao Jinniang gave Lu Chen.

Mrs. Qiao said to Mrs. Hou with a smile: "Two marriages have been arranged at once, and then you will be busy with your son's marriage. You have to choose carefully."

Mrs. Hou said: "Mother, the son is only sixteen years old!"

"Sixteen is not too young. Master Hou married you when he was sixteen." Mrs. Qiao said to Mrs. Hou.

"Xiao'er, I know what you have done for the Hou Mansion these years.

You were indeed wronged by Jin Niang's incident, but that bitch has been dead for almost a year, and you and Lord Hou should get back together.

Hou Ye's birthday banquet is coming soon, and he is only thirty-six after all, so there is no doubt.

You let him be plain all the time, and if he moves his mind outside, it would be better to have it in your hands. It's the age when you want to be a mother-in-law, so don't be a child. "

Madam Hou lowered her eyebrows and said, "Mother, I understand."

Mrs. Qiao twirled the prayer beads and said, "Now I'm looking forward to Li Yun's second place in the list of candidates, so that Jinniang's marriage can be icing on the cake.

However, I heard that the crown prince is in charge of this palace examination, His Highness, don't bear a grudge against Li Yun and deliberately target him. "

...

After the palace examination, Li Yun's head was covered with sweat.

Only after experiencing today's experience did he realize how lucky he was to be the top of the high school rankings this time.

This time, Enke is known to be recruiting talents for the prince, and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is among the candidates.

The famous Qingming Academy really lived up to its reputation, and the talents of the literati there were far above him.

Emperor Huilin said from the high position, "Where is Li Yun?"

Li Yun knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I am here."

Emperor Huilin asked: "This time Enke, His Royal Highness King Yong sent food, and all the students got sick after eating it, but you didn't eat it. Why?"

Li Yundao: "Your Majesty, I met the county magistrate of Jia'an, and I saw the word Yingbinlou written on the food delivered, and thought that Yingbinlou is the opponent of Zhiwei Pavilion, so I didn't eat the food from Yingbinlou vegetable."

Emperor Huilin snorted, "Then how did you feed yourself during the three-day scientific research?"

Li Yun took out two pastries from his purse and said, "Your Majesty, these are the pastries that the Lord of Jia'an County made for my subjects during the scientific examination. They are delicious and filling. After eating them, I won't be hungry anymore."

Lu Chen stared at the cake and nodded, feeling the pain in a daze!

Emperor Huilin motioned for the eunuch at the side to come up to him, took a small bite, the aroma of glutinous rice melted on the tip of his tongue, and melted in his mouth, he said: "This cake is not bad."

Lu Chen said to Emperor Huilin: "This pastry is called the No. 1 Scholar Cake in Jiangnan, because the last No. 1 Scholar also took this pastry to rush for the exam, and used it to satisfy his hunger in the exam room. The No. 1 Scholar in high school returned home with inscriptions For the number one cake."

After finishing speaking, Lu Chen looked at Li Yun and said, "It's a pity that according to Mr. Li's strategy... although he can get the top spot in the Jinshi Examination, it's a pity that he can't do it in the imperial examination. I'm afraid the champion will miss Mr. Li."

She still wanted to be the wife of the No. 1 scholar, even if he was too aggressive, he still couldn't let Li Yun become the No. 1 scholar!

Li Yun clasped his hands and said, "Your Highness has taught you that students will study hard and make persistent efforts."

Lu Chen responded lightly.

...

On the day of the palace examination, the ranking will be announced at the court, and there will be a parade of champions.

Therefore, on this day, the boxes in Zhiwei Pavilion were even more crowded with women, wanting to watch the No. 1 Scholar parade.

Qiao Jinniang was in the Tianzihao box, looking down, she didn't see Li Yun.

Fu Lu stepped on his feet and looked at: "Why is there no Li Yun? Is it because the prince's cousin deliberately made things difficult for Li Yun? Li Yun is clearly the top of the high school entrance examination, why is he not even the second place in the palace examination?"

Qiao Jinniang frowned. After all, she had a high opinion of Lu Chen. She thought that Lu Chen would at least not use the court affairs to deal with Li Yun.

Yuyan came in a hurry and said, "Congratulations girl, Mr. Li is the eighth in the second class, and he was born as a Jinshi."

Qiao Jinniang clenched her hands tightly. Li Yun clearly ranked first in the previous exam, so why did he become the eighth?

She wouldn't believe it if it was said that Lu Chen didn't move his hands and feet.

"Jin Niang." Seeing Jin Niang's angry appearance, Fu Lu chased after her.

Qiao Jinniang went straight to Rong Wang's mansion, and Rong Xiaojun Wang naturally gave him a warm reception, "Miss Qiao Er, how did you make your No. 1 Scholar Cake? His Majesty is full of praise?"

Qiao Jinniang said: "If the king of the county likes to eat it, I will make one for the king of the county sometime."

King Rong Xiaojun: "..."

After a long time, Rong Xiaojun Wang said to Qiao Jinniang helplessly: "There is a Qionglin banquet in the palace, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really couldn't get away, so he asked someone to bring Brother Tuan here."

Qiao Jinniang said to King Rongxiao, "Maybe the King can help me enter the East Palace?"

"It can be, it's just..."

Qiao Jinniang said to Rong Xiaojun Wang Fushen, "Please, Xiaojun Wang, please help me."

She absolutely can't harm Li Yun's future because of herself, because she loses the top three position, she is afraid that she will never be able to face Li Yun for the rest of her life.

After the Qionglin banquet, His Majesty will give these Jinshi official positions, and she must not harm Li Yun again.

Qiao Jinniang disguised herself as a court lady in the East Palace, and followed Rong Xiaojun Wang into Lu Chen's study.

Lu Chen was writing about the official positions of Jinshi. When he saw Qiao Jinniang coming in, he was a little curious, "Why are you here? I'm very busy today, so I'll talk about it tomorrow if I have anything to do."

Qiao Jinniang waited until King Rongxiao went out, and asked Lu Chen straight to the point: "If you hate me, you will come after me. Why ruin someone's future?"
