Pet wife Imperial Examination Road

Nan Rong Zeyu stood on the promenade and watched the fireworks in the distance, but he was not in the mood to sigh the beauty of the fireworks.Standing not far away, [-] watched his master's downcast figure look slender under the moonlight, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

"Yijiu, do you think it's okay for the master to stand there alone?"

"The master won't let us pass, so don't meddle in other business, just watch over it, and it will only make the master sadder if you pass."

Erjiu took another look from afar, dispelling the past thoughts.

What Nanrong Zeyu looked at was the place where the imperial palace had a family banquet. Even though today was a time for family reunion, Nanrong Zehan told the emperor that he was sick and could not attend, and abruptly stopped him outside the family banquet. .It turned out that he was so out of the way of other people's eyes, he desperately came back from the south of the Yangtze River, and when he arrived in the capital, he was treated even worse than before.Emperor Xuande just listened to what the fourth prince said, and didn't ask anyone to verify it. What's the point of him being the prince, it was more like a shield for the fourth prince to take over.

After an hour, Yijiu came back to reply, "Master, the new year gifts from the ministers and the palace have arrived, you go and greet them."

"Who sent them?"

"The empress sent the most, and other palaces also sent it. Most of the ministers... are sent by veterans who support you."

It is well known that more than half of the imperial court secretly turned to the fourth prince, only those veterans supported him and came to give gifts during the festivals.

"Let's go."

Yijiu waved his hand, Erjiu hurried over to help his master walk out of the door, and after returning to the main hall, he ordered someone to carry the things in.

As soon as he turned around, there was a light snowfall outside, and crystal clear solids fell from the sky. Nanrong Zeyu remembered that in the winter of the year before last, he was ordered to go to Jiangnan to supervise in a snowy day.

"When no one comes in from outside, just close the door, and live with your own. I don't have to wait on my side."

The entire East Palace has been spent in silence, without a hint of festiveness at all. Looking at his master's appearance in [-], he was not in a lively mood, so he went back to the house to rest.

Nan Rong Zeyu returned to the house. Just as he walked into the yard, he saw a man in red with loose hair facing him.

"Who are you, how dare you break into the prince's mansion at night?"

Feng Lan laughed when she heard someone's voice, turned around to make sure the person was right, and hugged him directly, "Oh, you made it easy for me to find, I thought I would never see myself again."

Nan Rong Zeyu recognized him, frowned and said, "What are you doing here, you want me to repay the favor of saving your life?"

"Yes, I saved your life, why don't you reward me well?"

"If you want money or something, I can give it to you, but please leave now." Feng Lanxiao said that since he has the ability to come in, it means that he has the ability to avoid those forbidden troops.

"I don't think gold and silver treasures are good. I think your small yard is good. If you think it's good, give it to me."

Nan Rong Zeyu looked at his sloppy face, and said indifferently, "Thank you for saving my life, but you should know where this is."

"Little Yuyu, don't be so fierce. I came all the way from the south of the Yangtze River, and finally found you. How can you be so ruthless?"

Nan Rong Zeyu didn't say a word, he just left him outside, went into the house and closed the door, and let the people outside shout indiscriminately.

During the Lantern Festival, two couples, Zheng Shuyu, Wen Chenyi, and Yun Yun were looking at the lanterns on the street. The lanterns on the street were a hundred times more beautiful than those in Yunyun Town, and his eyes were completely dazzled by the swaying colors.

Cheng Mu saw the old man selling lanterns and bought a small rabbit lantern for Yun Yun to play with. He continued walking forward when the crowd suddenly dispersed and someone seemed to be passing by.The four moved closer to the side, and a man in a gorgeous brocade suit was followed by a few young masters to swagger across the street.

Cheng Mu recognized that it was the fourth prince, Nan Rong Zehan. Everyone who visited the Lantern Festival gave in when they saw him. What kind of power must he be? Wen Chenyi felt uncomfortable seeing this situation. Now the fourth prince is more bold, so Even the crown prince wouldn't dare to do that.

After the fourth prince walked over, everyone continued to stroll around as if nothing had happened, but Cheng Mu and Wen Chenyi were preoccupied.

"Ayun, you and Mr. Zheng can buy anything you want to buy. Brother Wen and I will go to the front restaurant to reserve a seat. We will watch the fireworks show and guess lantern riddles later."

After walking a certain distance, Wen Chenyi said, "This country is like a towering tree that provides shade for the people. Now this big tree has been hollowed out from the middle. It seems to be thriving, but in fact it is You have been eaten away. Brother Cheng, I can see that you are a courageous person, and you are definitely not as simple as a poor man. If the fourth prince becomes the emperor, I will hand over my title and live in the south."

"You must have been planning like this for a long time." Cheng Mu didn't shy away from his guess.

"Yes, since Zheng Shuyu was drugged and fell ill and went to Yunzhou, I have been plotting business in Jiangnan, building a mansion and buying land."

Cheng Mu was shocked. Zheng Shuyu's poor health was drugged. When he was in the capital, he only heard that there were two young masters in Zheng's residence, but the third young master never had such a thing.It was really drugged, and this matter was really well hidden. The Zheng family guessed that it was an excuse to go to Yunzhou to recuperate without telling Zheng Shuyu.

"You're not going to tell him, are you?"

Wen Chenyi shook his head, "He never thought about it from the beginning to the end, so why should I add trouble to him, if he found out, he would be so sad, the aunts of Zheng Shangshu's family are all unconscious .”

After a few words, I arrived at the restaurant. The lantern riddle guessing was held in the teahouse opposite. Sitting on the second floor of the restaurant, I could see the situation below clearly.

Xiaoer saw that it was Huai'an Hou Shizi, so he hurried up to greet him, "How many people are you, Shizi?"

"Four people, find a side window."

The smile on Xiaoer's face disappeared, "My lord, I'm sorry, it's really hard to book the window on the side."

"In previous years, you were always asked to reserve a table, but this year there are people."

Seeing Wen Chenyi's lifeless appearance, Xiao Er dared to speak, "It was the eldest son of the Uncle Yongchang's family brought by the fourth prince. He came first, so he insisted on taking that seat."

The status of the Marquis is higher than that of the Earl. The Marquis of Huai'an is in charge of the Huai'an area in the south of the Yangtze River, and he has contributed a lot to the court's salt tax revenue. Moreover, the eldest son of the Marquis of Huai'an who died in the battle a few years ago made great contributions. Compared with Yongchang Bo's family, I don't know how many times more prestigious.But Uncle Yongchang is attached to the fourth prince. If the fourth prince becomes the emperor in the future, this Uncle Yongchang will not be able to raise his title, who would dare to offend him.

"Forget it, let's find another place."

When Xiao Er saw him let go, he relaxed. If it was really two princes fighting, he really didn't know what to do.

"You don't have to let him go." Cheng Mu said when he went upstairs.

"Actually, it's the same whether you give up or not. I just don't want to go through this muddy water. Let's find another seat and order some snacks. Let's go downstairs to pick them up."

After ordering dim sum, Cheng Mu and Wen Chenyi waited for someone to come downstairs. The teahouse opposite had already started preparing the tools for lantern riddles, and the literati who would take part in the examination many years later were waiting beside them.

It's too cold to guess lantern riddles down there all the time, and people can't stand the cold, and it's the same when sitting in the room and watching.Yun Yun looked at the pastries on the table, they were all so delicate, each pastry had something like a pattern on it, just the smell made people feel delicious.He picked up a piece of hibiscus cake and took a bite. It tasted very similar to the one in the town, but the one here seemed a little smoother and melted in the mouth.

The four chatted and laughed happily while eating snacks, and after Xushi almost dispersed, they all went home separately.
