Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet

Today's imperial examination system mainly consists of five levels, from the initial county examination, to the prefectural examination, provincial examination, metropolitan examination, and finally the palace examination.

After layers of screening, few people can take all the tests in one go. If you are not careful in the middle, you will have to wait longer.

The county examination was the most basic one, and those who passed it became students. After the prefectural examination, they became scholars, and after the provincial examination, they became juren. Some of those who passed the juren examination continued to take the examination, while some could return to their hometowns and be selected as local minor officials.

The next step is to take the joint examination, which is held every three years in spring. Those who pass the examination are called Gongshi. Gongshi can also take the palace examination, which does not eliminate candidates, but only selects the ranking. The emperor personally examines the palace examination and selects the top three, which are commonly known as the top scholar, the second scholar and the third scholar.

Lin Huai passed the county exam at a young age and became a student. This year, he will take the prefectural exam. Generally speaking, at this time, the family should change the child to a better school and start teaching some exam knowledge. But Lin Huai is a transparent person in the Lin family. Lin Zhigao himself was born in the imperial examination and looked down on the status of a small student.

So I never made any arrangements, thinking that I would only notice him if I really had the ability to pass the imperial examination.

Lin Wan thought about this, looked at his face and asked with a smile: "I have a school here, are you willing to go?"

Lin Huai's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly, "Yes, yes!"

"You're willing to do this without even asking where it is?"

"I believe in my second sister!" Lin Huai looked at Lin Wan with sparkling eyes and said trustingly.

Lin Wan couldn't help but chuckle, picked up the handkerchief and covered her mouth with it, saying, "Since you trust me so much, aren't you afraid that I will sell you out?"

"My sister must be selling me for my own good!"

"Okay, okay, I'm just teasing you. I won't sell you out." Lin Wan said with a smile, "But that academy is indeed a good place. The teachers there are all great scholars of the time and highly respected academic masters in the Hanlin Academy."

"Second, second sister, is it really...really?" Lin Huai asked in a trembling voice of disbelief.

"Really." Lin Wan was amused by his appearance again and asked with a smile: "Have you heard about the Mingde Academy that is being built?"

Lin Huai was still a little dazed until he left the Marquis' Mansion.

His second sister wanted to send him to Mingde Academy, but Lin Huai walked back with a fluttering step.

During the provincial examination, he met several students with similar interests, most of whom were illegitimate children or from ordinary families. They later chatted with each other.

A concubine's son of a Hanlin family said that several great scholars in the court were going to set up a college together recently, and every teacher in the college was a famous contemporary scholar. His family had used many connections to send their legitimate son to college, but it was unsuccessful.

But now, Lin Wan said she would send him to Mingde Academy to study! Lin Huai couldn't help but slap his face, fearing that he was dreaming.

Second sister... How could he deserve such help from his second sister! In these years in the Lin family, Lin Huai had gotten used to being ignored, and also used to not having any good things in the family. But his second sister thought of him when she had such a good opportunity!

Lin Huai tightly grasped the book in his hand, turned around and looked in the direction of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, and secretly made up his mind that he must work hard and never let his second sister down!

Lin Wan didn't know any of this. She was looking at Ming Mo in front of her and asked calmly, "What did the prince say?"

Ming Mo stood in the hall with his head lowered. After a while, he whispered, "The prince... the prince redeemed a girl in Hongxiu Pavilion and asked me to come back and get 10,000 taels of silver."

Qinglian couldn't help but exclaimed, "What kind of girl wants to spend 10,000 taels of silver! Why doesn't she just rob it!"

Lin Wan couldn't help but frown. Just after everything had been quiet for a while, something had to happen. Ten thousand taels of silver were used to buy a girl. Lu Tingxu didn't know how expensive food and daily necessities were, right?

"What's going on? Please explain clearly."

Ming Mo also knew that what Lu Tingxu did was not right, so when Lin Wan asked, he told her everything he knew.

Lu Tingxu has been in a depressed state ever since he was hurt by the emotional incident with Ye Shiyue. He either stays at home or goes to Hongxiu Pavilion to get drunk with a group of friends.

So I met this amazing woman named Yanliu in Hongxiu Pavilion. It is said that she is cheerful and cheerful, never belittles herself because she lives in a brothel, and often says some shocking things.

When Lu Tingxu met her, she was arguing with a group of women, because the women in Hongxiu Pavilion were severely divided into different levels, the most popular ones had luxurious clothes and food every day, and enjoyed a luxurious life, while the unpopular girls had to serve those of higher levels and endure the curses of some guests.

At that time, there was a little maidservant who was being bullied by the top girl. Yan Liu stepped forward and said, "We are all the same people, with the same status. There is no distinction between high and low." Anyway, there was nothing much to her crooked logic, but it did attract the attention of many young men who came to have fun.

So it was natural for Yan Liu to be praised next. Every time Lu Tingxu went there, he would ask her to accompany him. The group would talk together and listen to Yan Liu's some alternative remarks.

Today, a young man asked Yan Liu to dance in front of everyone, but Yan Liu didn't know how to do it, so she said that the young man was making things difficult for her. Lu Tingxu happened to be there, and then they started arguing for some reason, and Lu Tingxu and the young man both wanted to redeem Yan Liu.

Yan Liu added fuel to the fire and said: How much money a man is willing to spend on a woman proves how much the woman means to him.

As a result, the price started to rise, and Lu Tingxu finally shouted out 10,000 taels, and no one dared to accept it. After all, she was just a brothel girl. No matter how novel she was, it was not worth spending 10,000 taels of silver.

Yan Liu wept in front of Lu Tingxu, saying that he was her god, riding a colorful cloud to save her. After a series of love confessions, Lu Tingxu signed the redemption contract on the spot. When he was paying, he remembered that he didn't have so much money, so he sent Mingmo back.

After hearing this, Lin Wan's face darkened. What a rich young man, he spent 10,000 taels of silver to win the beauty's smile. What a kind and righteous lifesaver, he saved the beauty from the water and fire.

Lin Wan couldn't help wanting to curse, but she couldn't. Ming Mo was still waiting for her to make a decision.

"Qinglian, give the banknote to Mingmo first and wait for the prince to come back!" Lin Wan remained calm for a long time.

Lu Tingxu was the prince of the Marquis's mansion anyway, and she couldn't do that to save his face. Besides, the money belonged to the Marquis's mansion, and although she was the housekeeper now, if she ignored Lu Tingxu because she couldn't bear to part with the money, even Xiao would be unhappy.

"The prince is back. Ask him to come over. I have something to ask him."

Ming Mo held the banknote, nodded in agreement, and hurried out.

Lin Wan held her forehead and calmed down for a long time before she stood up to find Xiao. She had to report such a large expenditure to Xiao, and Lu Tingxu was going to bring people back, so she couldn't hide it.

Rather than waiting until Xiao Shi finds out and gets angry, it is better to tell her the matter slowly first so that she can be mentally prepared. Nothing is more important than health!
