She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband

On the parade ground of the capital's camp, rows of guards stood in neat rows, all of them in high spirits, looking forward to it but also nervous.

Because Prince Jing Chu Tingyu will personally select the guards from them.

If you can be chosen by Prince Jing, your future will be limitless.

Chu Tingyu glanced around the stage twice and then walked into the team.

Those who were nearby immediately held their heads high and chests out, not daring to waver their eyes.

Chu Tingyu could tell at a glance that the people arranged in the front were basically children of powerful aristocratic families in the capital.

There were three ways to become an official in the Sheng Dynasty. One was to take the imperial examination, which was mainly for commoners. The other was to be a member of the royal family and be granted an official position after taking the royal examination.

The third path is for children of high-ranking families to directly join institutions such as the capital's camp, and be promoted from imperial guards to imperial guards, and many of them eventually become high-ranking officials.

Therefore, in the capital's camp, there were a particularly large number of children from aristocratic families, and they were clearly distinguished from the children of commoners who had passed strict screening.

This time when Chu Tingyu came to select people, the person in charge did not dare to offend the aristocratic families and had received bribes, so he arranged these people at the front so that the chances of being selected would be greater.

Chu Tingyu picked two people and asked them a few questions. He didn't say anything and continued walking forward.

The guard in the middle was a capable commoner. This time he stayed longer and continued to move forward.

At the end of the team, there are usually guards with poor strength or no connections. Chu Tingyu focused his attention on one person.

The man was tall and slender, with slightly curly hair and obvious Hu features on his face.

It was Qi Ming.

He walked over and stood beside Qi Ming.

"What is your name?"

"I am Qi Ming."

When others were asked, they would definitely introduce themselves, but Qi Ming only said his name.

Chu Tingyu glanced at the wound on his face and asked, "Why are you injured?"

Qi Ming still gave a brief answer, "My skills are inferior to others."

Chu Tingyu could tell at a glance that he was not telling the truth.

If it was really a sparring match, he wouldn't be injured like this.

"Why did you enter the imperial camp?"

Chu Tingyu had asked this question to several people just now, and they all said that they wanted to serve the court and be loyal to the prosperous dynasty.

Qi Ming said, "Your Majesty, I want to achieve something."

Chu Tingyu recalled the day when the eldest princess held a flower-viewing banquet. After Li Jingwan rescued Qi Ming, she said that he would definitely achieve great things in the future.

It seems that Qi Ming remembered Li Jingwan's words.

Since he is the person Li Jingwan has chosen, he must be good.

"Then you should follow me and make a career."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qi Ming clasped his fists and knelt down, "I will definitely live up to your high expectations."

He would not disappoint the lady's expectations of him.

"Buy it and leave it immediately!"

“Big, big, big…”

"Small, small, small..."

Inside a gambling house in Beijing, the continuous shouting filled people's eardrums. The gamblers stared with red eyes, watching the dealer open the market.

"One two four nine, little one."

Jiang Xing was overjoyed, "Hahaha, it's small! I bought a small one, I won again."

While yelling, he collected the money.

I'm really lucky today, he hummed a tune proudly.

"Brother, you're lucky." A scoundrel-looking man walked up to him, "Do you still want to gamble? If you continue, I'll follow you to buy."

"Of course I'm continuing. This is just the beginning. I went to ask someone for help a couple of days ago, and he said I've been lucky lately." Jiang Xing said with a chuckle.

"Brother, you are lucky today. Follow me and you are guaranteed to win."

The man clasped his fists and said, "Okay, I will follow you to make a fortune today. My name is Lu Laosan, what's your name, brother?"

"Jiang Xing."

Lu Lao San said proudly, "Brother Jiang, if I win today, half of the money will be yours, and if I lose, it will be mine."

Jiang Xing was even more proud, "Come on, come on, let's go big this time."

As a result, Jiang Xing's luck began to take a sharp turn for the worse, with more losses than wins.

In the end, both he and Lu Laosan lost everything.

"Damn it, the fortune teller cheated me!" Jiang Xing yelled, "I have to go and smash his stall."

He cursed and reluctantly came down from the gambling table, looking like he was about to leave.

Lu Laosan stopped him and said, "Brother Jiang, are you leaving now?"

Jiang Xing was embarrassed. The other party followed him and lost all the money. He said awkwardly, "My luck is not good today. I will take you with me another day when my luck is better."

"Your luck comes and goes, it all depends on whether you have more good luck or bad luck."

Jiang Xing felt that what he said made sense and was somewhat tempted, but he had no money left. "Maybe next time. I don't have any money today."

"Okay, go ahead, I'll play for a while." Lu Laosan looked around, "Maybe I can make a comeback later."

"Do you still have money?" Jiang Xing was curious. He clearly saw that Lu Laosan's purse was empty.

"No money..." Lv Lao San smiled wickedly, "But there are ways to get money."

"How do we do this?" Jiang Xing asked.

"Jiebei." Lu Laosan put a hand on his shoulder and lowered his voice, "My relative opened a money shop. I can borrow money from him at a low interest rate and with a long repayment period. How about it, do you want to join us?"

Jiang Xing was a little hesitant.

There is no gambler who doesn't borrow money. He had borrowed money before and owed a lot of money due to interest. It all depended on his mother to pay it back.

His wife ran away, and his mother beat him up and said that she would cut off the mother-son relationship if he borrowed money again. Only then did he stop.

"Brother Jiang, I will take you there and let my relatives give you a low interest rate as long as you can win the money back before asking for repayment." Lu Laosan instigated him.

"Didn't you say that the fortune teller said you were lucky? If you seize the opportunity, you will win a large sum of money, which is more than many people earn in their entire lives."

Jiang Xing was moved by what he said and finally made up his mind, "Let's go, take me there."

Qin Guangyao returned home after finishing his studies at the clan school. As soon as he reached the second gate, Cui Yu came to meet him.

"Master Yao, you are back."

The last time Cuiyu went to Fang's house to pick him up, Qin Guangyao treated her very well, "Sister Cuiyu, are you waiting for me?"

Cuiyu stepped forward and straightened his collar, "Yes, the young mistress told me to wait for you here."

"Aunt is looking for me?"

Cuiyu smiled and said, "It's the Second Madam who's back. The Young Madam told you to go to the Second Madam's courtyard to pay your respects after school. The Young Madam is talking to the Second Madam right now."

The second wife is Qin Guangyao’s biological mother, Ms. Sun. She went back to her parents’ home to visit her relatives last time and just returned home today.

There is a rule in the Marquis's Mansion that when the elders return home, the younger generations must go to pay their respects on the same day.

"Okay." Qin Guangyao nodded, and without asking the servant to follow her, she followed her directly to Sun's yard.

Sun liked quietness and disliked the noise caused by too many people. There were few servants in the yard, and when she entered, she only saw a maid sweeping the floor.

Cuiyu led Qin Guangyao to the flower hall, and Bitao came over at this time.

"Master Yao." Bi Tao greeted Qin Guangyao first, then said to Cui Yu, "Cui Yu, the young lady said that she forgot to bring a gift for the second lady, and asked us to go back to You Lan Residence to get it now."

Cui Yu then looked at Qin Guangyao and said, "Master Yao, please go in first. I need to go back to get something."

Qin Guangyao nodded and continued walking forward. Just as he reached a window in the flower hall, he heard Li Jingwan's voice.

"Mother-in-law, the old lady is talking about adoption again. I have already declined twice. If I decline again, I think the old lady will blame me."
