The two had to go to the yard hand in hand to eat.

It was not early, and the other subordinates were tired for a day, so Wang Yongzhu had already ordered them to go down and rest.

Only the light was on in the small kitchen, and Mrs. Ding and Gu Yu were not worried about others, so they cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and were boiling water, preparing Wang Yongzhu and Song Chongjin to bathe.

On a spring night, there is no wind, quiet, and there are a few dim lanterns along the corridor.

It's as if there were only two people left in the world.

Song Chongjin held Wang Yongzhu's hand, and the two walked slowly along the courtyard, talking as they spoke.

The two of them told each other about the people and things they met today, listened to each other, and exchanged their plans in their hearts, and it was already in the middle of the moon.

It wasn't early, and they were all busy washing up before they fell asleep.

Next, everyone is busy, and three days later is the palace test, and only after the palace test can it be divided into the top three.

For a while, everyone had their own guesses.

But at this time, a news scandal exploded in the aristocratic circle of the capital.

The girl that the Gu family lost back then actually got it back after decades!

That's surprising enough, isn't it?

There is even more exciting to come, the Gu family girl who came back is actually the mother-in-law of Wei Guogong, the eldest son who was exiled outside in the early years.

Coincidental or not?

For a while, the ladies of high-ranking families, who still cares about the palace test, even if they rely on a champion, they will come out every three years, what's so unusual?

Wouldn't it be more exciting to find this girl who has been lost for decades, or to be brought back by another person who has been outcast?

I heard that the Gu family is very fond of this nephew and son-in-law because of this, and they all say that he is a lucky star, and it is he who brought back his own homeless flesh and blood, otherwise after so many years, where to find it?

Because of this, the eldest master of the Gu family also went to the Weiguo Mansion in person, not only to congratulate Song Chongjin, the nephew and son-in-law, on the title of the gold list, but also to say that because of this, Song Chongjin, the nephew and son-in-law, is in their Gu family, it is like a son.

As soon as this news came out, countless people were so jealous that their eyes were red.

There are countless people who are so angry that their hearts ache.

For example, the Song Chongjun brothers, as well as the royal family of the Duke of Qi.

Originally, the news of Song Chongjin's title on the gold list spread, and the Wang family smashed half of the room at home, which was still smashed when she was unable to move.

After smashing the house, she cried and asked Qi Guogong to call the shots for her, saying that the little beast who harmed her is still in the exam now, how will she go out to meet people in the future?

forced the Duke of Qi to erase Song Chongjin's fame, and no matter how bad it was, either he could not participate in the palace examination, or let him make a fool of himself in the palace examination and lose his honor in front of the emperor.

If you offend the Holy One today, then there is nothing.

Qi Guogong couldn't stand his daughter's crying like this, and was worried about how to teach Song Chongjin a lesson, and not be caught by Song Hong.

As a result, I heard that Song Chongjin actually became the nephew and son-in-law of the Gu family, the two women who slapped their daughters and caused their daughters to break their legs and ribs, one became the girl who was lost by the Gu family for many years and finally recovered, and the other became the niece of the Gu family.

Listening to the words released by the Gu family, Qi Guogong's idea had to be temporarily rested, at least for now, he couldn't move Song Chongjin.

When Wang heard this, he went on a hunger strike at home, and he didn't let Qi Guogong spit out when he cried, made trouble, and hanged himself, but only comforted his daughter, saying that now that he is on the cusp, how many people are watching, it is better to wait for a few years, wait for the limelight to pass, and then clean up Song Chongjin to avenge his daughter.

Only then did he reluctantly coax Wang to agree.

As for Song Chongjun, he was directly sick.

But the other people who showed favor to Song Chongjin were all ecstatic, I thought it was just a bronze, but I didn't expect the king to follow!

As long as you get on this ship, won't you lie down and win in the future?

For a while, not only was the hearts of the people in the house fluctuating, but everyone hated to be curry favor in front of Song Chongjin.

Song Chongjun's side, except for the Ruan family with the right to marry, everyone else also slacked off a lot, and they inquired about the relationship and wanted to be transferred to Song Chongjin's courtyard.

There are also many noble ladies, so they handed posts to Gao, either saying that they wanted to visit her, or asking her to go to the house with Wang Yongzhu to play.

In fact, there is only one purpose, that is, I want to listen to some gossip or something from Gao's or Wang Yongzhu's side.

Gao was so annoyed that he pushed these posts away, only saying that he was going to prepare for the Song Chongjin Palace test, but he was not in the mood to wait until he was free.

In fact, she was also confused.

On the second day after the title of Song Chongjin's gold list, Gu Changqing took Mrs. Zhang to the mansion of the Duke of Weiguo, and as soon as he entered the door, he went to the study with Song Hong and talked for a long time before coming out.

After coming out, he introduced that Mrs. Zhang was his sister-in-law, and Wang Yongzhu was his niece.

With Gao's mind, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

It was all instinct, and after receiving Mrs. Zhang, and sending people away, he came back to his senses.

couldn't help but ask Wang Yongzhu a few words, but Wang Yongzhu didn't hide it, only said that when he was in Jing County, Gu Zikai was suspicious when he saw his mother, and he originally planned to let people inquire after returning to the capital.

I didn't expect that my family would go to the capital, but after the Gu family found out, the eldest lady of the Gu family came to see it in person, and finally brought it to the old lady of the Gu family to be confirmed.

Gao recalled those days, Mrs. Zhang suddenly moved to the Gu family, saying that the old lady of the Gu family liked it and had to stay by her side, so it was!

If it was his daughter-in-law, Gao could still complain twice, and he wouldn't tell her such a big thing.

But now in this situation, the Gao family has to say a few words, what congratulations to Mrs. Zhang for getting back her relatives, and the Gu family recognizing her bloodline.

Thinking that Wang Yongzhu is now the niece of the Gu family, he must be more and more careful.

only reluctantly said a few words, and let Wang Yongzhu go back.

As soon as Wang Yongzhu left, the grandmother next to the Gao family came up, a little pity: "Madam, if we had recognized this eldest prince under your knees, who would have thought that he would have such an opportunity?" ”

But no, who would have thought that he would marry a country daughter-in-law, as well as a country mother-in-law who gave him away, turned over and became the eldest lady of the Gu family and the cousin of the Gu family.

What shit luck!

Whether these people are jealous, envious, or hateful, for Song Chongjin, it is insignificant.

He is about to face the last test, the temple test.

Early in the morning of the third day, before dawn, their group of famous tributes had already lined up outside the palace walls.

As soon as the day turned white, as soon as the hour came, the palace gate opened, and their group of tributes continued to follow the palace attendants into the Baohe Palace.

The table had been set up in the hall, and an official confirmed by name that the named tribute would be led to sit down in front of the table by the chamberlain.

After the people were determined, they began to scatter the papers, praise and salute, and the tributes sat upright to answer the questions.

There are countless pairs of eyes staring inside and outside the hall, the emperor sits on the imperial chair, and waits until the tributes start to answer the questions, if they are interested, they will come down and watch people answer the questions.

If you are in a bad mood, you will also leave the venue early, and your own examiner will invigilate the exam.

When Song Chongjin was praising and saluting, he secretly glanced up, and saw a middle-aged man sitting high on the throne, with an astonishing momentum, and his face could not distinguish joy and anger, looking at the tribute below.

After just one glance, Song Chongjin lowered his head.

Sitting in front of the table, Song Chongjin took a deep breath, and his thoughts, which had just fluctuated, settled down again.

I first looked at the test paper, and my heart sank slightly, and I had a manuscript, so I dipped my pen in ink.

After writing a few words, Song Chongjin felt a look sweep over him, paused, and then moved away.
