Chapter 108: Falling into the water

On February 16th, the general examination ended, but the results would not be available until early March. The candidates who stayed in the capital made the atmosphere in the capital very lively.

Some of them drank in restaurants, composed poems, and talked about world affairs; others wandered around the streets and alleys to feel the prosperity of the capital.

At this time, the greatest good news came from the border. Good news came from Northern Xinjiang. After consecutive victories, they went straight to Huanglong, and Northern Xinjiang was forced to sue for peace.

This news was like a whirlwind, sweeping the entire capital in an instant. The streets that were originally bustling with activity were now even more lively.

On the first day of March, Luoshan and Axiang ran to the gate of Gongyuan early in the morning to wait for the results to be released.

Mrs. Zhao Cui prepared wedding money and waited for the news at home.

Zhao Yin was confident and sat there drinking tea steadily.

Zhao Cheng had no confidence and walked in circles in the yard, mumbling something unknown.

Fortunately, the good news came quickly. The examination was conducted from the bottom to the top, and Zhao Cheng was ranked fifty-ninth.

"If you work hard in the palace examination, you won't fall into the same rank as Jinshi." Zhao Cheng's request was not high, "I wonder what brother Li's name is?"

At this time , Luoshan and Axiang came back from outside and brought back a roster.

Zhao Chengcheng went over to take a look and saw that it was the admission list for this year’s examination.

On the first page, I saw Zhao Yin’s name, he was third.

Zhao Cheng laughed loudly, "My son is really up to date." He patted Zhao Yin on the shoulder and said, "Yin'er, hold on, you are the best."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Number one, number two and number three are determined by the emperor, not by the list." Mrs. Zhao Cui gave him a slap on the back.

Zhao Yin looked for familiar names on the roster. Xiao Bin's name was at the seventeenth place, and Li Lingjun's father Li Jin was at the twenty-third place.

“Oh, they are all ranked higher than me.” Zhao Cheng smiled without hesitation.

The next day, these newly promoted Jinshi will go to the Yamen of the Ministry of Rites for etiquette training on entering the palace, so as to avoid being rude in front of the emperor.

The Ministry of Etiquette had to handle the imperial examination after finishing the examination. However, the auspicious day for Prince Xianli’s wedding was March 16th, so the Ministry of Etiquette was extremely busy.

The days passed quickly, and it was March 16th in a blink of an eye. Zhao Wangshu was temporarily not qualified to attend the wedding banquet at the county prince's palace, and this time no one forced her to go to the streets to watch the excitement.

The Prince’s Mansion of Xianli County was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, full of joy and a lively scene.

　Guests arrived one after another in the afternoon, and they were received by the chief steward of the county prince's palace.

Zeng Xinqin came with Mrs. Shen Guogong’s Crown Prince. She didn’t sit in the wedding hall for long before going to the garden of the Prince’s Mansion.

“Xinqin, come here soon.” said the girl who was close to Zeng Xinqin.

“Here you are, what are you doing?” Zeng Xinqin walked over with a smile.

“We are admiring flowers. The flowers in this garden are so beautiful.”

“I heard that these flowers are brought from the south.” Another said the girl.

At this time, someone shouted: "Come here quickly, there is a colorful koi carp in this pond."

The girls were all curious and went to watch the koi carp.

The colorful koi carp swims in the water, its scales shining like a rainbow.

“It’s so beautiful.” Zeng Xinqin exclaimed.

"I heard that this koi can bring good luck." A girl said.

While admiring the koi, Liu Furong and Xie Lanyin got into an argument. Xie Lanyin mocked: "Young and old are in order. Your second sister and a concubine are all going to marry into the prince's palace. You are a legitimate daughter. A big girl can't get married."

Liu Furong was stabbed in the painful area, and her face turned blue with anger. She said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Could it be that I Is that wrong? You are a legitimate daughter and Liu Qiangwei is a concubine, but she can be a concubine. As for you, you don't even have anyone to propose marriage, so you have to stay at home and be an old girl." Xie Lanyin said sarcastically.

"You..." Liu Furong was so angry that she couldn't speak, and raised her hand to hit her.

Xie Lanyin couldn't let her hit her. The two started to push and somehow pushed Zeng Xinqin into the pond.

“It’s not good, someone fell into the water.”

“Save someone quickly!”

Generally, when a wealthy family entertains guests, they will There is a woman who knows how to swim beside the pond, so that she can be rescued in case someone falls.

But for some unknown reason, this time it was just like the last time Zhao Yujia fell into the water, and there was no woman who knew how to swim next to her.

Just when the girls were panicking, someone jumped into the pond.

The spring shirt was thin, Zeng Xinqin fluttered in the water, her shoulders were half exposed, and her white and tender skin was even more attractive in the sun.

“It’s Wang Fu.” A girl recognized the person swimming towards Zeng Xinqin.

Wang Fu swam to Zeng Xinqin and held her tightly in his arms regardless of her struggles.

The girls were all stunned, and they didn’t even think about Wang Fu.What's going to happen in the backyard?

Yun Hao told Zhao Wangshu about this the next day. Hearing this, Zhao Wangshu jumped up happily, "That's great! This pair of scumbags and bitches can finally lock up."

“But how could Wang Fu listen to you?”

“He has something in my hands.”

“If the Duke of Shen’s government If pressed, will he confess you?" Zhao Wangshu asked.

“No, he doesn’t dare.” Yun Hao chuckled, “And the prince’s wife and uncle’s wife will try their best to facilitate this matter.”

A person who doesn’t want to let a commoner A woman climbs a high branch, but one does not want a bastard to marry a noble daughter.

“Yun Hao, you are so amazing!” Zhao Wangshu stood up on tiptoes excitedly and gave Yun Hao a sip on his cheek.

Yun Hao was stunned by Zhao Wangshu's actions, with a suspicious blush on his face. "What are you doing?" He touched his cheek uncomfortably.

Zhao Wangshu looked at him, his eyes full of smiles, "I am complimenting you, are you still not happy?"

"Ahem, of course I am happy. ." Yun Hao coughed twice unnaturally.

Zhao Wangshu couldn’t help laughing when he saw Yun Hao’s reaction. "Yun Hao, you are so cute when you are shy."

When Yun Hao heard this, his face turned even redder. "Stop making trouble, let's leave quickly. It's been a long time since I went to Jinzun Tower with you."

After the examination results were released, we didn't see each other for more than ten days.

He took Zhao Wangshu's hand and walked out, "I heard that Jinzun Tower has launched a new peach blossom banquet."

In March, the peach blossoms are in full bloom. Take advantage of the fragrance to enjoy the peach blossoms. feast.

The Peach Blossom Banquet at Jinzunlou had a total of thirty-six dishes. Yun Hao and Zhao Wangshu ordered six of them: Playing in the Water among Flowers, Peach Blossom Boating, Peach-flavored Drunken Duck, Peach Blossom Fish Soup, and Peach Gum Frosted soup and peach blossom cake.

Peach Blossom Fish Soup, with a few delicate petals floating in the thick soup, the fish meat is tender, and paired with the fragrance of peach blossoms, it is endlessly memorable.

Peach Blossom Boating, pink shrimp balls wrapped in a layer of peach blossom sauce, has a unique taste.

Peach-flavored Drunken Duck has crispy skin and fresh and tender meat.

"Hua Jian Shui" is a refreshing and delicious cold dish, paired with the faint fragrance of peach blossoms, which makes people's eyes brighten.

“Every dish is full of creativity and ingenuity, it’s hard to imagine the chef’s ingenuity.” Zhao Wangshu praised with a smile.

"If you like it, we'll come back tomorrow." Yun Hao said generously.

“It’s too luxurious,Just come here once in a while. "Zhao Wangshu smiled and refused. She can't be too prodigal and make Yun Hao poor. How can he marry her?
