The third prince glanced across the audience from his seat, taking everyone's reactions into his eyes.

Although Ji Xiuran has always focused on food, he did not miss these things about the banquet. He thought more about it. The third prince's reputation outside is really not good, because he has always loved food, beautiful scenery, fine wine, and beauties. The crooked name of "Prince Aimei", and among the several princes who grew up to become kings, only this third prince did not go to court to listen to politics, let alone receive errands.

But the outside world also rumored that the emperor doted on the son of the Empress Yuan the most. Not only did he give him the treatment that his original wife's son should have, but he also only gave him the respect of being able to raise two thousand personal guards.And Ji Xiuran knew that the third prince was not that simple, and seeing the emperor's attitude today, he seemed to really love him, but he didn't know if it was intentional that he didn't accept errands or go to court.

The first son of the Empress Yuan is the most legitimate heir to the throne, but the Empress Yuan died early, and her mother's family was not strong enough. The little third prince can survive the crisis in the palace and grow up safely, relying on the emperor's favor alone is not enough of.To convince those who want him dead that he is not a threat, not competitive.

In this way, it can be understood that the third prince's casual and indifferent state is all an illusion to confuse others.Thinking of this, Ji Xiuran unconsciously shuddered, as if he had discovered some terrible secret, he stretched out his hand to caress his beating heart, and couldn't help but rejoice that he would return to Qingshan Village soon, and would no longer be involved in these intrigues.

Ji Xiuran looked at the people around him. Now the banquet has been more than half done. After drinking for three rounds, many people wanted to get drunk. They couldn't help but start singing poems to add to the fun. The ministers at the banquet were almost drunk and started Excited to splash ink.Ji Xiuran had thought about going to Li Shuhua to toast a glass of wine before, but now that he hadn't stopped around him, he also rested his mind, and now that he was full, he was quite interested to see these well-mannered scholars, drinking Various gestures after drunkenness.Quite interesting.

After the banquet was over, Ji Xiuran got into the carriage that Shi Jingchen came to pick him up at the palace gate, and he and Shi Jingchen began to talk about what they saw at the banquet today.Shi Jingchen looked at him tenderly and listened to him.

Chapter 77

Ji Xiuran didn't want to be promoted to an official. While the others were preparing for another assessment, he was preparing things to go home. There were a lot of good things in the capital that Luzhou couldn't buy. Ji Xiuran planned to buy more and give them away when he went back. During this period, I also attended a banquet hosted by Li Shuhua. Tan Hualang was directly appointed as an official editor, so he must stay in Beijing to work. After this parting, Ji Xiuran brought a few altars with him. Return the wine and say goodbye.

There is also Mr. Shu, who made an appointment to meet in the capital before entering the capital, who knew that Ji Xiuran had finished the exam and was ready to return, only then did he receive Shu Mingyan's post.Ji Xiuran took the time to meet him. It turned out that family matters delayed his time to go to Beijing. Ji Xiuran told him about the Zhenxiu Pavilion. If he wants to buy wine in the future, he can go to the Zhenxiu Pavilion.

Since sending out the art of war, Wang Chenglin seldom came to see Shi Jingchen. Except for practicing in the martial arts field when his hands were itchy, Shi Jingchen had more leisure time. He picked up tools again and got some Timber, started to make things for Jiabao, for playing, even if he didn't need it now, he would prepare it for him.

Ji Xiuran saw that he was starting to do these carpentry tasks, so he drew a picture of a baby stroller for him, and asked him to study it. When it was made, it happened to be suitable for Jiabao, and then he could push Jiabao Get out and walk the streets.

During Jiabao's daytime, the whole family was busy with Ji Xiuran's exams, and they didn't even bother to hold a banquet for him. Now that it's been a hundred days, it's hard to make up for it, so the two discussed to wait until Jiabao's first birthday. Do it again.By that time, I have already returned to Qingshan Village, and with the help of my father and mother, it will be grand and grand.

Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen were teasing Jiabao in the room that day, when they heard Zeng Junhui's voice saying, "Come out quickly, let's see who is here." The loud voice startled Jiabao.

Ji Xiuran got up and walked out, while Shi Jingchen picked up Jiabao and followed behind, Ji Xiuran walked out and said, "It's better if there's something strange, if it's not, see if I don't blow Zeng Junhui's head off, how dare I scare our family?" Garbo."

After coming out and seeing Zeng Junhui, Ji Xiuran couldn't help but glared at him, Zeng Junhui yelled quite aggrieved: "Xiu Ran, don't look at me like that, look who I brought here, you must not have thought of it." After finishing speaking, he Get out of the person behind.Ji Xiuran looked over, and his expression changed instantly. Seeing the person running over excitedly, he threw himself on his body and hugged him, and said in a slightly choked voice, "Brother, why are you here?"

Brother Ji caught Younger Brother Yao who rushed over, patting him on the back dotingly and said, "I'll come and see you, and I'll pick you up by the way."

After the examination results were released, Ji Xiuran sent a letter to his family. After the Ji family received the letter, they knew that Ji Xiuran had passed the exam, and they were very happy. At that time, Ji's mother wanted to go to Beijing again, saying that she was worried about her grandson and worried that the two would come back. The whole family disagreed because he couldn’t take good care of his little grandson on the way. In the end, Brother Ji said that he could go to Beijing to pick him up, so Mother Ji gave up.

And just at this time, good news also came from the laboratory. The research on the rubber that Ji Xiuran gave them before has achieved certain results, and now a part of the rubber that can be used can be made, which can be used to make a new type of shockproof carriage.When the carriage is ready, Brother Ji can set off, and the timing is just right.

When Big Brother Ji and Ji Xiuran finished talking, the people in the carriage behind also got off, Ji Xiuran looked over and said unexpectedly: "Hongyuan and sister-in-law are also here?"

Brother Ji said with embarrassment on his face: "Before I left, Hong Yuan suddenly proposed to come together. I thought this might be the only chance for her to travel far before she got married, so I agreed. Your sister-in-law, I wanted her to come. The capital has long experience."

After hearing this, Ji Xiuran took a teasing look at Brother Ji, and said, "Brother is really a good husband and father." Brother Ji touched his head embarrassedly and smiled.

At this time, Shi Jingchen came over to greet him with Jiabao in his arms, and just in time to relieve him, Brother Ji quickly changed the subject and said, "This is Jiabao, right? Give me a hug for this uncle." Brother Ji took Jiabao to him. Come here, when the children in the family were born, he held them to some extent, so he is still very skilled in holding children. He took Jiabao and hugged him well. Not happy, Brother Ji looked at Jiabao carefully, and said: "My parents have been looking forward to you taking Jiabao back, everything for Jiabao is ready at home, this child really looks like our family People, look how much his facial features resemble those of our family."

"People who have met Jiabao say that his facial features look like mine, and his face looks like the third brother."

"That's true." Mrs. Ji, who came in, stood beside Brother Ji, looked at Jiabao carefully, and said in agreement, "It really looks like the biological son of the two of you."

Ji Xiuran saw Mrs. Ji and Dahong approaching, and saw that their faces looked a little tired.He said: "Sister-in-law and Hong Yuan have worked hard all the way, let's go into the house and have a rest."

Dahong took advantage of the opportunity to salute Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen. Ji Xiuran looked at her who had grown into a big girl, and couldn't help but sigh that time flies.

The rooms in the small courtyard were already full after the addition of Youfu’s family, and now that Brother Ji and the three of them have no place to live, Zeng Junhui had expected it a long time ago and said, “Well, anyway, the lease period of the small courtyard is coming soon. When we arrive, you can move to one of my small courtyards for a temporary stay, there happens to be a suitable place in my place, it's only a few days, it doesn't matter."

Ji Xiuran thought for a while, and felt that this method was feasible, so he agreed. "Then let's pack up our things now and move over there in a while. Brother Zeng will take Big Brother and the others over there first, and we'll go over after we pack up."

The others also agreed to this arrangement and began to split up.Originally Mrs. Ji wanted to take Jiabao away with her, but when she hugged him and turned around, little Jiabao started to cry and quit. Ji Xiuran had no choice but to take him over to coax him. Then stop making trouble.In the end, they had no choice but to leave little Jiabao with the two of them.Ji Xiuran looked at Jia Bao who was happily playing with his little hand in his arms, and said to Shi Jingchen dumbfounded: "This kid is too clever." Shi Jingchen nodded in agreement.

Just when the two of them turned around to go into the house to pack their things, a voice came from the gate saying, "Is the new Jinshi Ji Junji here?" Ji Xiuran and Shi Jingchen looked at each other suspiciously, and said, "Go out and have a look. "

When I came to the door, I saw a man who looked like an official. He was standing at the door and looked in. When he saw someone, he went forward and saluted, and said, "Is it Mr. Ji Junji, the little official who sent official documents in the lower official department? Mr. Ji sent the official document of appointment. Please also come forward to accept the official document."

After hearing what he said, Ji Xiuran was stunned, and said in a daze, "I didn't take part in the examination for the appointment of officials. What's the definition of this official document? Was it sent by mistake?"

"Are you from Qingyang County, Luzhou?"

"Yes"

"Then there is nothing wrong with that. This is the official document of the lord's appointment. I don't know what is going on. The young people are very light-hearted, so I don't know very well. The lord should accept the official document first, and then slowly discuss other things later." The petty official explained to Ji Xiuran with a respectful attitude, that people like this who were awarded official positions without passing the official examination
