Chapter 499 Chen Ziming Sends Gifts
Gao Zongwang ranked 26th in the second class. According to the custom of Tianqi State, he would be awarded the status of Jinshi.
His ranking is not actually very good, but it is not too bad either.
At least, there should be no problem in staying in the capital, but the official position may not be too high.
Even so, Mr. Gao was very happy. After so many years, his Gao family finally had a Jinshi!
Thanks to the blessings of the Gao family’s ancestors, their descendants have finally achieved success!
"Zongwang, Dad will return to Yang County in two days to worship our ancestors and tell them the good news!" Master Gao had tears in his eyes.
Gao Zongwang smiled and nodded: "Dad, thank you for your hard work. In the next few days, I am afraid there will be many gatherings in the capital, and your son can't leave..."
Today, when we learned that Emperor Gaozongwang had passed the imperial examination, several neighbors near the Gao family sent congratulatory gifts, and many students who took the exam together also invited him.
In addition, Gao Zongwang also learned that Lu Jianchuan was ranked second in the first class of high school. He was happy for Lu Jianchuan and began to plan to visit Lu's house in person.
Everyone was immersed in happiness.
However, there was one person who was an exception.
Chen Ziming had a gloomy face as he sat in the sedan chair, staring at the name on the palace examination list: the second place in the first class, Lu Jianchuan.
"Lu Jianchuan! It's really him!" Chen Ziming clenched his fists, and the veins on his arms were exposed.
Chen Shun, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help but feel his heart beating fast when he saw this. He also stared at the name on the list. After seeing this, his heart beat even faster.
Lu Jianchuan was Young Master Ziming’s former mortal enemy.
But, wasn't that person from Xijiang Village? How could he appear in the capital and become the runner-up in the first class?
Chen Shun was extremely nervous, with cold sweat on his forehead. Before, he had helped Young Master Ziming and did many things to harm the Lu family!
"Young Master, could it be that you have the same name and surname? It can't be such a coincidence?" Chen Shun asked tremblingly.
Chen Ziming shook his head and snorted, "Chen Shun, go home and prepare a gift for the Lu family, and deliver it in person."
Chen Shun knows people from the Lu family. If he sends a gift to them, wouldn’t it be clear whether this Lu family is the same Lu family they know?
Chen Shun resisted in his heart, but facing Chen Ziming's cold and gloomy face, he dared not say anything.
After returning to the Chen family, Chen Shun went to find the housekeeper, asked the housekeeper to prepare a simple gift, and personally sent it out.
The Chen family's housekeeper was puzzled. He had never heard of any dealings between Young Master Ziming and the Lu family before. After thinking about it, he immediately went to report to Madam Chen.
Mrs. Chen was also a little surprised when she heard about this: "Why did he suddenly change his personality?"
You know, ever since that incident with Chen Ziming, he has been locking himself in the room, and all he does is lose his temper.
For this reason, Prime Minister Chen didn't know how many doctors he had hired for him, but they were of no use at all.
Mrs. Chen was also very troubled. She didn't expect that Chen Ziming would go out to check the list today and even take the initiative to send someone to the Lu family to give gifts!
"Butler, do you know where the Lu family came from?" Mrs. Chen asked puzzledly.
Butler Chen shook his head: "Madam, how about I ask someone to go out and ask around? I heard that the young master of the Lu family has now become the runner-up..."
If our prime minister could recruit such an outstanding young man into the camp, it would surely be a great help!
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she knew what the housekeeper meant and nodded with a smile: "Well, thank you for your hard work."
After the housekeeper left, Mrs. Chen looked out the window, looking thoughtful.
The housekeeper was very excited. He sent people out to inquire about the Lu family, and also arranged for a smart servant to follow Chen Shun to deliver a gift to the Lu family.
Chen Shun wanted to refuse, but then he thought that he didn't know whether the Lu family was the Lu family they knew, and he was a little scared. After thinking about it, he nodded and agreed.
The two of them carried the gift boxes, walked to the door of the Lu family and knocked.
The Lu family's doorman was still wondering. There was a lot of noise in front of the door just now. He had finally sent away the onlookers and closed the door. Why was someone knocking on the door again now?
"Who are you?" The doorman opened the door and saw Chen Shun and Butler Chen carrying gift boxes. He thought they were probably here to give gifts.
As expected, Chen Shun immediately smiled and said, "Brother, we are from Prime Minister Chen's residence. We have come to give Young Master Lu a gift. Congratulations on Young Master Lu's success in getting the top three honors in the imperial examination."
When the doorman heard this, he was shocked. He didn't expect that these two people were from the Prime Minister's mansion!
People from the Prime Minister's Mansion actually gave gifts to their young master!
"Please come in, come in, I'm going to report to my master and mistress." The doorman welcomed them in warmly, then ran away to report to his masters.
Soon, Old Man Lu and He Feng came out.
Although the Old Man Lu in front of him was wearing luxurious clothes, Chen Shun recognized him at a glance. This was the Old Man Lu from Xijiang Village!
Chen Shun quickly lowered his head and just handed over the gift in his hand.
"Master Lu, this is what our young master asked me to deliver."
After saying that, Chen Shun hurriedly said goodbye.
Old Man Lu was very puzzled. He did not recognize the two people in front of him, so he hurriedly asked, "May I know where your family is?"
However, Chen Shun had already turned around and walked to the door. It was not known whether he heard it or not. He just paused and continued to walk outside.
The servant from the Chen family was also a little puzzled, but he still replied respectfully, "Master Lu, we are from Prime Minister Chen's residence."
After saying this, the servant followed Chen Shun and walked out.
Old Man Lu was holding a gift box in his hand. He looked at He Feng and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Prime Minister Chen's Mansion? What a high position that must be! How could such a family come to give them gifts?
Old Man Lu, carrying the gifts, hurriedly ran to the inner courtyard with He Feng to find Lu Jianchuan.
"Ah Chuan, you know someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion? I didn't know anything about it before. Their servants delivered the gift and left. I didn't even have the time to ask them a few questions!"
Speaking of this, Father Lu was a little confused. Why did the servant who came to give gifts look familiar? But he couldn't remember who he looked like.
Lu Jianchuan was also confused. He didn’t know anyone in the Prime Minister’s Mansion!
Gu Yunxi, who was standing by, was already horrified. The Prime Minister's Mansion, the Chen family, it stands to reason that Prime Minister Chen did not know Achuan, and he would not openly send servants to the mansion to deliver gifts.
Then there is only one possibility, the person who sent the gift was not Prime Minister Chen, but Chen Ziming!
"Dad, I know what's going on. I'm afraid this wasn't sent by Prime Minister Chen, but by Chen Ziming."
"It's Chen Ziming who framed our family before. I didn't expect that he would dare to come to our house again!"
Gu Yunxi said this with gritted teeth, and when he thought of Chen Ziming's wretched appearance, he hated him so much.
Lu Jianchuan also reacted. He didn't expect that after that incident, Chen Ziming could not take part in the imperial examination, but he was still in the capital?
