Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

After the palace examination, the list of candidates for this session finally came out.

Cui Yaying felt uneasy for some reason. She sent Yuzhu out early in the morning to inquire.

Qingdai saw her eyes looking out the door from time to time, and said with a smile: "Girl, don't worry, I think Mr. Shen will definitely be able to go to high school, and maybe he will be ranked first."

Only the two of them knew about the bet with Shen Zhiming, and Cui Yaying didn't know what her mood was at the moment, whether she was concerned about the bet between the two, or about him.

The waiting time always feels long. After a long time, Yuzhu ran in excitedly, "I got it, I got it——"

Cui Yaying suddenly jumped up from her chair, "Where is the ranking?"

Yuzhu held out a finger excitedly, "The first one in the first class, Mr. Shen won the first prize!"

"Really the top pick?" Cui Yaying smiled unconsciously.

"It's absolutely true. Mr. Shen is riding a horse through the streets right now. Would you like to go out and have a look, miss?"

"If there's anything good to see, I won't go." Unexpectedly, he really won the top prize, which also meant that she lost.

"Mr. Shen is the top scholar in high school. This is a great event. It is rarer than marrying a new bride. It only happens once in your life. Do you really want to miss me?"

After listening to her words, Cui Yaying wavered between going and not going.

"When Yuzhu said this, all the servants wanted to see it," Qingdai echoed, "Girl, how about we go and see this rare scene?"

"Since you want to go, let's take a look." Cui Yaying looked reluctant, but her steps were faster than usual.

Yuzhu and Qingdai smiled at each other and hurriedly followed.

As soon as the three of them turned out of the alley after leaving the house, they saw a crowd of people on the street.

The station was full of people, all wanting to catch a glimpse of the top three talents.

Qingdai and Yuzhu protected Cui Yaying and squeezed to the front, just in time to catch up with the drum music and the ceremonial guard, who were surrounded by the new top pick, second place, and top pick.

Shen Zhiming walked in the front, with golden flowers in his hair and a red cross, riding on his horse and looking straight ahead.

He was young and handsome, and when he appeared, the girls screamed and some even threw their handkerchiefs and sachets into his arms.

Shen Zhiming only raised his hand and swept it away, leaving nothing behind.

Yuzhu was dumbfounded by the grand occasion of throwing fruit into the cart, "Master Shen is too popular."

Cui Yaying curled her lips and said, "That's because Shen Zhiming got the advantage because of the second place and the third overall pick. They were either older or not good-looking."

"Ah?" Yuzhu thought about it seriously and said sincerely, "Young Master Shen doesn't need anyone else to support you, right?"

Seeing a woman chasing the parade, Cui Yaying only felt dazzled. She glared at the person with a back immediately in front of her, turned around and left.

"Hey, girl, please slow down -" Yunling didn't know what she said wrong, and the girl seemed angry.

Cui Yaying walked out of the crowd and met Cui Qihan and Cui Yalan.

Cui Yalan ran over excitedly, "Third sister, are you here to see my cousin too?"

"They are the two who insist on watching the fun." Cui Yaying pointed at Qingdai and Yuzhu behind her.

"Third sister, my cousin won the top prize!" Cui Yalan said excitedly, holding her hand.

Cui Yaying was forced to sway with her, "I know, I know, don't you want everyone to know that you have a cousin who is number one?"

"nor

It's not possible. Cui Yalan smiled and rolled her eyes.

The champion paraded through the streets, while other cars, horses and pedestrians gave way.

The carriage Lu Siheng was riding in was no exception and had to stop. He opened his tired eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Sir, the road ahead is blocked. They are all looking at the new champion. Please wait a moment." The coachman outside replied.

Lu Siheng closed his eyes again. He had been out on this mission for three days and three nights. The sound of gongs and drums outside was really noise to him, disturbing his dreams.

The carriage swayed and finally arrived at the Zhongjing Hou Mansion, and Lu Siheng staggered inside. The servants in the mansion were not surprised to see him like this. After cursing, they went to do their own business.

"You stop!"

Before Lu Siheng even touched his courtyard door, he was yelled at loudly. He stopped in vain, looked at the person in front of him with half-closed eyes, and said incoherently: "What are your orders, father?"

He smelled of alcohol and had a strong smell of powder.

Lu Hao, the Marquis of Zhongjing, furrowed his brows and said helplessly: "You are no longer young. Stop fooling around outside all the time. It's time to calm down. If you don't know how to restrain yourself, which good family is willing to betroth a girl to you?" "

Lu Siheng looked up and laughed as if he heard something funny, "That's better, what are you going to do when you get married? Rather than being like your father, it's better to be alone and happy."

Lu Hao's expression changed, he pointed at him up and down and said, "Look at what you look like now, how can you be worthy of your mother?"

"My mother?" Lu Siheng's eyes were filled with coldness and he mocked, "You still have the nerve to talk about my mother? The person who has wronged her the most is you!"

Looking at his face that resembled the person in his memory, Lu Hao's heart stung and his lips trembled, unable to speak.

.

Lu Siheng sneered and turned back to his residence.

As he staggered into the door, a maid who was sweeping the house bumped into him. The water in the basin in her hand spilled out and splashed all over him.

The maid was so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground and raised her sleeves to wipe the water stains on his body, "Third Master, please forgive me..."

Lu Siheng took a step back in disgust, avoided her touch, raised his head and shouted loudly: "Lin Zhong, Lin Zhong——"

"Young man is here," a clever boy ran over and said happily, "Third Master, you are back..."

Lin Zhong paused and saw a large area of ​​wetness on his blue brocade clothes, "Why are you all wet?"

Lu Siheng pointed at the maid on the ground, "This maid is irritable, throw her out!"

"I know I'm wrong. Third Master, please don't drive me away..." The maid cried so hard that she knelt forward to catch him.

Lin Zhong stopped her with quick eyes and hands, pulled her up with force, and dragged her out.

Lu Siheng returned to the inner room, his drunkenness immediately disappeared, and he went to change clothes with steady steps.

After he finished changing his clothes, Lin Zhong came back.

"Third Master, you haven't been home for a few days this time. Are you not injured?" The Third Master's injuries last time frightened him.

"No," Lu Siheng sat down and took a sip of tea, "Did someone take it away?"

"Yes, I sent someone to Mother Wang. In addition to this, you caught the four maids that Madam sent in and drove them away. From what I see, Madam will probably send someone over again."

Lu Siheng snorted coldly, "Let her give it away, and I will return it to her when she comes."

He had seen that woman's face clearly when he was three or four years old, and now he has become one of the most famous people in Beijing.

The second best libertine was exactly what she wanted, and she was probably smiling crookedly behind her back.

Lu Siheng rubbed the rim of the cup with his fingers and made her laugh. One day he would make her unable to laugh again. He would repay her every way she treated them, mother and son.

The movement in Lu Siheng's courtyard immediately reached the ears of Mrs. Zhou of Zhongjinghou.
