Houfu Key Class

Wei Xinglu couldn't listen any more and stood up to argue with them. His father was beaten, but he was definitely not a bad official.

"Brother Liao, don't speculate. The Censorate is supposed to supervise all officials. It's not easy for anyone to do this job. If you don't do it well, you will be in trouble."

"That's right. Today we speculate about the left censor. When he enters the official career, we may not be able to do it as well as him."

"Be strict with yourself. Why do you say those gossips? Why don't they discuss how we can do good things and not offend people if we are censors?"

"That makes sense. I think it should be like this..."

Wei Xinglu sat back down again.

Because he found that these students were quite reasonable. As long as there was a leader who brought the topic back, the others began to concentrate on discussing the problem itself.

Xu Wanchao Zong Zhao smiled and asked: "Are the students in this class better than yours?"

He said before that he was able to win the first place because his opponent was not good enough.

Zong Zhao nodded and said, "It looks pretty good. Maybe a lot of people will be admitted this year."

The only champion said this.

The young men were all excited, with curiosity and expectation in their eyes. The stronger the opponent, the more motivated they were.

What's more, the imperial examination is not a competition for a fixed number of places. As long as you are strong, you will be admitted even if you exceed the quota.

So after returning from the library, the young men were more motivated.

The whole key class was immersed in reading from top to bottom. Some people even wanted to stay up late to study secretly. When Xu Wan found out, she confiscated all the books and told them to rest.

Reviewing is important, but health is the capital of the imperial examination. You must not lose sight of the big picture and do bad things before the exam.

In early March, the spring examination day.

The students from all over the country who had been waiting for many days in the capital all carried their bags to the tribute academy and started the three-day closed-door examination.

There were many carriages from the Zong family this time, because in addition to carrying the luggage of the five children, there were also four more scholars and their luggage.

The little devil waved at them happily: "Mom, Dad, we're going in, hehe, three days, this time the exam will be over in three days, and we will definitely not be dirty when we come out!"

Shen Yibai also howled: "This is the last time to enter the tribute hall, this little broken dark room, this young master will never come again!!"

He Zheng: "Go!"

Xu Wan waved at them and said: "Try hard, I hope this is the last time for all of you to enter the tribute hall, I wish you all can pass the exam, we will pick you up in three days!"

"Okay!" Everyone's voices rang out.

Nine people entered the tribute hall, and gradually they could not see their figures clearly.

Xu Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and finally let go of the heart that had been lifted for so long. After the joint examination, there was only one month left for the palace examination.

The three-year imperial examination finally came to an end.

At this time, the students in the tribute academy nearby looked at the young couple, thought about the way the children waved goodbye to them just now, and complained: "They are really fertile. Five sons entered the examination room together."

Zong Zhao, Xu Wan: "..."

Not to mention, there was Zong Jincheng calling her mother, and the other children waved goodbye to them so affectionately.

This look... is indeed quite like their sons.

Especially the age of these five people is staggered, especially like they started giving birth without rest after giving birth to a child, and even gave birth to triplets in the middle.

Xu Wan couldn't think too much.

Otherwise, which god could hold five in three years?

Who knew that the man saw Xu Wan's face clearly, and saw that she was just in her early twenties, and she really didn't look like the mother of five children, so he asked Zong Zhao again: "Second marriage?"

Xu Wan: "!"

Brother, you are a little too good at guessing.

When he said that the five children were born by the two of them, Zong Zhao didn't feel angry, but when he heard the word second marriage, his whole face darkened.

The man didn't seem to want an answer, and walked towards the tribute hall after asking.

Xu Wan took Zong Zhao's arm and persuaded him: "Calm down, that man is talking nonsense, don't pay attention to him."

Zong Zhao's temper could not be tolerated at all, he turned around and went back, walked in front of the student, and showed a dark face.

"What... what?" The student suddenly became timid.

This man looks fierce, and it seems that he can fight. Will he be beaten?

The student secretly glanced to the side, and even thought about asking someone for help.

As a result, Zong Zhao said two words with a cold face: "First marriage."

The student: "..."

I was scared to death, and thought he was going to do something.

The student said with a stiff face: "Oh, then, brother, congratulations... congratulations on your first marriage..."

Xu Wan was almost dying of laughter, and pulled the childish Zong Zhao to the carriage. On the way, she couldn't help but say: "This passerby just said one sentence and left, you really go to explain to him?"

Zong Zhao said with a depressed face: "It's nonsense, saying that we are second marriages, it's unpleasant, I don't like it."

He is six years older than Xu Wan, and he didn't think there was a gap. As a result, after this student's blind guess, he found that their ages are indeed easy to be misunderstood, like a second wife married later.

Anyway, the more I think about it, the angrier I get.

They are obviously first marriages, he has no original wife and no concubines, and a big black pot is put on his head.

Xu Wan said with a smile: "What's the matter, you brought Cheng Cheng back to the eldest son's household, and everyone assumed that I was his stepmother, and I think so myself."

Zong Zhao's frown deepened: "At that time, I only wanted to share your worries for His Highness, and I didn't want to wrong Jin Cheng as a concubine, so I didn't think too much about it."

In fact, not only did the outside world look at Xu Wan as a stepmother, but the existence of Zong Jincheng would also prevent the children born between him and Xu Wan from occupying the position of the eldest son.

These were questions that the sixteen-year-old had not thought deeply about.

Xu Wan patted his shoulder gently and comforted: "It doesn't matter. It makes no difference to me whether I am a stepmother or not. You won't really have a first wife. What's more, I still have two of you. Here’s the guarantee, absolutely peace of mind.”

Zong Zhao grabbed her hand and said, "We will all return to our places soon."

— before their child is born.

But Xu Wan was not very happy. She asked, "Can Jincheng still live at home in the future?"

Zong Zhao paused and replied, "No more."

Xu Wan asked: "Just after the palace examination?"

"This is the longest period of time Luo Jingfeng can wait." It was also the time Zong Zhao had agreed with Luo Jingfeng after he came back.

Xu Wanxin said: That will be more than a month later...

She had never felt that time passed so fast. Three years had passed in the blink of an eye, and now she only had the last month left to spend time with Jin Cheng.
