We are all reborn, of course we have to overthrow it and start over again to take the whole family f

Ministry of Rites, South Courtyard.

Today was the day for the announcement of the results of the Spring Examination. Early in the morning, people began to gather under the screen wall outside the South Courtyard of the Ministry of Rites. They were all here to see the results announced.

Most of them were candidates who had taken part in the spring imperial examinations. After ten years of hard study, the results were announced on this day.

Of course, there was another group of people under the screen wall. Most of them were middle-aged men in their forties, dressed elegantly, and eagerly waiting. From time to time, they would scrutinize the young candidates waiting for the results to be announced.

Most of them were wealthy families in Beijing, with considerable assets at home, but they were rich without power.

Therefore, they came up with an idea to marry a daughter-in-law.

Every time the results were announced, they would wait under the screen wall. If a young candidate was on the list, they would take him away directly, promise him a large sum of money, and marry him to an eligible girl in his family.

A strong marriage will make you bigger and stronger.

Some famous and talented young scholars had long been targeted, and there were even many cases where several families favored one person and fought each other to win his hand in marriage.

"Here they come, the officials are here."

Someone in the crowd watching the excitement shouted, and everyone turned their heads to look. Sure enough, several officers in official uniforms were riding horses towards them.

In a carriage not far from the screen wall, Shihua and Yun's Hou Yue were sitting in the carriage, waiting for news.

Yun was obviously uneasy. She lifted the curtain several times and looked out.

Changfeng was called by his teacher, Mr. Zhou, and Tingyu went to check the list on his behalf. Yun didn't want to wait at home, so she followed him out.

"Mother, eat some meat, don't be nervous, big brother will definitely pass the exam, and he will get top three honors!"

Shihua took out a piece of jerky from her small bag and handed it to Yun.

Shihua loves to eat meat, and Yun can't stop her. She simply asks the kitchen to make chicken jerky for her to eat as a snack.

Chicken has little fat, so she won’t get too fat if she eats more, and it can also help her teeth grind.

For the first time ever, Yun took one and ate something to distract herself, and she felt less anxious.

When the sun rises, the auspicious time arrives.

"The results are out!"

The official uttered a long song and pulled the curtain covering the screen. When the curtain fell, the imperial edict appeared, with the names of the successful candidates in the spring examination listed in rows.

The students looked up with wide eyes, searching for their names on the list.

"I won, hahahaha..."

A handsome young man shouted excitedly when he saw that he had got a good ranking on the list.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was pulled aside by several wealthy people who had been waiting for a long time and started to fight with him, all of whom wanted to take him home.

"No, no, I already have a fiancée at home..."

The candidate tried weakly to defend himself, but was immediately drowned out by the voices of persuasion.

Tingyu stood in the crowd, watching the bride-kidnapping drama, and covered her mouth tightly with her hand.

He had excellent eyesight. As soon as the imperial edict was unveiled, he saw that the first person on the list was Xiahou Changfeng.

Before leaving, Yun repeatedly told him to just look at the list and not talk.

While waiting for the results to be announced, he could already sense several pairs of eyes wandering over him.

Now, seeing the bride-kidnapping drama, he secretly praised his mother for her foresight. She was right. As expected, one should watch more and talk less. Oh, no, no.

Ting Yusheng was tall and handsome, and had long been favored by several wealthy families. They were just waiting for him to hit the mark and then rush forward to snatch him away to get married.

Seeing him covering his mouth, he must have failed the exam and was trying not to cry. The wealthy families shook their heads, left him behind, and set their sights on the next one.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, Tingyu suppressed his excitement, covered his mouth, and the dog sneaked away from the crowd.

Before he even reached his carriage, he could no longer hold back and shouted, "Mother, mother, my elder brother has won, my elder brother has won!"

Yun clasped her hands together, chanted a Buddhist chant, then hurriedly lifted the curtain of the carriage and ordered Tingyu to get in and tell her the situation in detail.

Some are happy, some are sad.

Lu Meimei also sent people to look at the imperial edict, but the servants who looked at the list from the first to the last did not see Xiahou Zian's name.

He was afraid that he was dazzled, so he looked again twice, and indeed, there was nothing.

He arrived at the carriage of the Marquis of Loyalty with his head down. As soon as Xiahou Wenyuan and Lu Meimei saw the look in his eyes, they knew that something bad was going to happen.

Sure enough, when the servant said that he had missed the target, their hearts died.

To be precise, his desire to achieve success was shattered into pieces.

"However, the top of the list this time is Changfeng, Young Master Changfeng."

The servant's words hit the hearts and lungs of the two people firmly.

Especially Xiahou Wenyuan, he hung his head and stamped his feet, immediately feeling that he had missed out on 100 million, oh no, it was tens of billions.

After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Xiahou Wenyuan said nothing and was depressed for the whole day.

It was just getting dark when he arrived at Aunt Aruo's room.

He seemed to be holding back some anger, and he tortured Aruo so much that his bones were almost falling apart.

As he struggled, he seemed to be venting his anger and muttering to himself as if he was making a wish.

"Aruo, you are young, give me a son, give me another son..."

A Ruo let him do whatever he wanted, but turned around and curled his lips. Give birth to a son? He would never be able to give birth to a son in his lifetime.

On the first day she was with Xiahou Wenyuan, she already knew that this man's body had long been poisoned by a chronic poison, which had corroded him and made him lose his fertility.

Perhaps because she was in pain from the torture, Aruo said this in an unpleasant tone.

"Give birth to a son? My Lord, forget it. You don't know yet, but you can no longer give birth to a child."

Xiahou Wenyuan, who was busy working, was struck by lightning when he heard this and suddenly stopped what he was doing.

After three seconds of reaction, he grabbed Aruo's shoulders, shook him vigorously and yelled, "Aruo, what did you say? Speak to me carefully."

Aruo curled his lips, showing some sarcasm.

"I mean, you were given a chronic poison, and your body is ruined. You can't have children."

Ah Ruo looked at his stunned expression and couldn't bear to lie to him, "Don't believe it? You can go and see a famous doctor who is good at using poisons, and then you will know if what I said is a lie or not."

At night, the lights were still on in the small Buddhist hall in Rongxi Hall.

"Madam, my informant reported that Butler Qin went to Weilan Garden again."

After waiting for so many days, Nanny Song, there is finally news.

"Well, take a few people with you. This time, we must catch the adulterers in pairs." Old Madam Xiahou fiddled with the Buddhist beads in her hand and gave the order in a low but stern voice.

"Yes."

Nanny Song responded. Her manpower had already been prepared and they were just waiting to catch the turtle in the jar.

Several people sneaked into Weilan Garden, and sure enough, except for Taohong, all the guards on duty in the courtyard fell down and fell asleep.

Taohong was just a little maid. Nanny Song came up to her and hit her with a stick. She fainted without even a sound.

Xiahou Wenyuan, who had just come out of Xiao Cangxuan in a daze, happened to see that scene. He was startled and followed.
