Quick travel to save a miserable life

Sure enough, after a month's trial results will be released, Wang Ziming will be ranked number one in high school.

In the palace examination half a month later, the emperor appointed Wang Ziming as the number one scholar in the new subject, and Lin Hui suddenly became the mother of the number one scholar!

In the few days after Ziming won the first prize in the exam, the Wang family courtyard was crowded with people. Except for the same year who came to visit Ziming, the rest came to propose marriage to him. In order to marry the number one scholar, even the thirteen-year-old Some people also came to propose marriage to my beautiful lady.

Faced with numerous marriage proposals, the Wang family's mother and son were faced with a difficult choice.

Wang Ziming was already twenty years old. At this time, he was already a completely older young man. If he didn't get married, it would be shameful. However, this candidate for marriage put Lin Hui and Ziming in trouble.

However, soon they no longer had to worry about it, because the emperor granted marriage to the legitimate daughter of Princess Anping to Prince Ming, the new champion.

Now, all the suitors have stopped coming. Who dares to compete with the emperor for a son-in-law?

The sudden good news made the three members of the Wang family a little overwhelmed for a while, but Lin Hui quickly realized it, and Wang Ziming also knew the opportunity, and the two of them quickly entered the palace to express their gratitude!

The wedding date of the princess and Ziming was set for one year later. Along with the imperial edict granting the marriage, there was also the edict granting a house. After all, in the eyes of the nobles, the Wang family's small courtyard was too cramped. We can't live in such a small courtyard forever.

The newly given residence is located in the inner city. It is a courtyard with three entrances. It is only one street away from the princess's mansion in Anping. It is fully furnished, even the furniture has been laid out. The Wang family quickly moved in after receiving the decree. .

After all, the original yard was too small. You could see everything as soon as you entered, and it was very inconvenient for people to come and see guests. Why not live in a new house for free?

The new house is very spacious, and the three of them, mother and son, have their own separate yard. However, they will go back to their hometown to worship their ancestors within a few days.

Yes, Ziming was admitted as the top scholar, which was a sensational event in the entire Changyuan County and even the entire Jingzhou Prefecture. Not to mention that he was ordered to marry the princess. In the eyes of others, it was a grand event that honored his ancestors. , how can you not return home in glory!

The ostentation of the mother and son when they returned this time was not as good as before. Lin Hui's embroidery skills were recognized by the queen, and the remuneration for her subsequent embroidery work was several times higher than before. Therefore, she was considered to have some wealth, but Lin Hui had always kept a low profile. There was no publicity.

However, this return home was obviously not a low-key time, nor could it be low-key. There were officials in office in the state capitals they passed along the way to entertain them, and Cheng Yi was also presented to them before leaving, making the group of them particularly eye-catching.

Returning to Changyuan's hometown, since there is no old house anymore, the family lives in an inn.

But after only staying for half a day, the head of the Wang family took him to a big house and said that since he had already arrived at home, how could he leave his own house and stay in an inn instead.

He also said that this house had been idle for a long time and asked them to live here safely during their return to their hometown. Lin Hui and Ziming had no choice but to accept his kindness.

Since he had not returned home for many years, Ziming was thinking about finding someone to repair the graves of several members of the Wang family, but was told by the patriarch that the graves of the Wang family's mother and son, including Ziming's grandfather, had already been repaired.

When they went to visit the tombs to worship their ancestors, what they saw were brand-new stone tablets and neat tombs, all made by the head of the Wang family.

As soon as they got the news that Wang Ziming had won the number one prize, the head of the Wang family hired craftsmen to work day and night, and finally repaired their ancestral tomb before the number one scholar arrived home.

In fact, the relationship between this so-called patriarch and Wang Xiuyuan has been in the fifth server for a long time, and the discussion with Ziming is even further. They had no contact at all in the past, but they always know how to cause trouble, and they talk about a nephew to Ziming. I don’t know. , I thought he was Wang Xiuyuan’s brother!

We can't blame the head of the Wang family for being shameless. Wang Ziming won the top prize, which is a great joy for the whole family.

Not to mention that he is really a descendant of the Wang family, even if he is not, the head of the Wang family must find a way to get involved with him. This is not only related to the Wang family's status in the local area, but also to his immediate interests.

What's more, Wang Ziming became the consort, and he was the emperor's son-in-law!

The number one scholar is awarded every three years, but there are not many sons-in-law of the emperor. I heard that this princess is the daughter of the empress, and the next emperor will definitely be the princess's brother. This status is even more extraordinary.

Of course, among the people who gathered around her when she returned to her hometown this time, Lin Huiniang’s natal family were her nephew Lin Chengcai and niece Lin Yuanniang.

Only then did Lin Hui know that Lin Fuhai and Qin had passed away a few years ago. Lin Fuhai had been caught in the rain and cold on the way back from Fucheng and died because he did not receive good medical treatment when he returned home.

Mrs. Qin accidentally broke her leg two years ago and was unable to move while lying on the bed. Her son and daughter-in-law starved to death.

Neither of these two people were very old when they died, and neither of them died in a good way.

These were all told to Lin Hui by an enthusiastic member of the Wang family. While talking, he carefully looked at Lin Hui's face.

Most women can't help but support their natal family if their family becomes rich, but Lin Hui is an exception.

Regarding what Lin Fuhai and his wife did, if they didn't take their lives, it was for the sake of the original owner to show mercy. Don't expect anything else.

What's more, Lin Huiniang's pair of nephews and nieces are not very good. They are so cruel to watch their parents die.

So Lin Hui ordered people not to let them in, and told Ziming not to pay attention to them if he saw them.

Even though Lin Hui and Ziming didn't want to be extravagant and wanted to return to Beijing after paying homage to their ancestors and visiting a few important people, they couldn't resist the hospitality of their hometown elders, so they still had to stay in their hometown for nearly a month before they could escape.

Of course, when they set out on the road, there were three more members of the Wang family among their entourage. The head of the Royal family euphemistically said that they were serving the number one scholar. They were all members of his own family, so you're welcome.

These three people were left behind after being screened by Ziming. According to the wishes of the clan leader, at least seven or eight people should be brought along.

After two months of trekking, the Wang family returned to the capital, and Lin Hui began to make preparations for Ziming's marriage.

Although the princess had her own royal affairs to prepare for her death and lived in the princess's mansion after her marriage, it was impossible for them as husbands to do nothing.

Princess Anping is the daughter of the Empress. She is sixteen years old this year. She is the youngest daughter of the Empress who was only born when she was in her thirties. Because she already has four sons, this little daughter is particularly valuable!

Although the emperor and the empress were married, they still had feelings. Otherwise, they would not have given birth to five legitimate children. The first few princes were all the offspring of the empress.

When the eldest prince reached the age of ten, all the princes below him also stood up, and the other concubines in the palace began to have children.
