In her previous life, Wen Yan married into the Marquis's estate for over a decade. Upwards, she helped her mother-in-law defeat concubines and regain control of the household. Downwards, she he...
Chapter 283: Leaking the Examination Questions
As for the servant from the Huo family, after being beaten with ten boards, he was carried back to the Huo family.
After leaving the courtroom, Wen Yan bowed to everyone in gratitude: "You all have witnessed the innocence of my husband and I. Wen Yan would like to thank you all."
Aunt Shuang hid in the crowd and deliberately asked, "Are you the second daughter of the Wen family who was taken away by mistake?"
Wen Yan admitted openly: "It was me."
Everyone looked surprised.
It turns out that the second daughter of the Wen family, who married a poor scholar, is so handsome, and now she has to deal with Li Yuan.
A blessing in disguise!
Everyone couldn't help but think that Master Huo abandoned Miss Wen and married someone else.
Miss Wen's husband passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar, while Master Huo only came in sixth, surpassing him.
Master Huo's servant personally participated in the case.
Once several elements were combined, everyone felt that they had grasped the truth.
Aunt Shuang concluded, "Master Huo was overpowered by someone he looked down upon, and he was unwilling to accept this, so he teamed up with the old Ying family to deliberately discredit Ying Jieyuan.
Tsk tsk tsk.
I never thought that the bright and cheerful Master Huo would be so miserable inside! "
Aunt Shuang aroused everyone's suspicion and left quietly.
Wen Yan smiled and said, "Today my husband has passed the imperial examination. It is better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone. Let's share this joy together."
Wen Yan handed the box of copper coins to Ying Zhilin and asked him to scatter the money.
Everyone was scrambling for the items, it was quite lively.
Patriarch Ying looked at Ying Zhilin and felt very relieved.
He had a premonition.
The Ying family, and even the entire Songshan Village, will prosper because of this young couple.
After distributing the wedding money, Ying Zhilin walked towards the Ying clan leader.
He bowed deeply to the clan leader and said, "Grandpa clan leader, Zhilin has lived up to your expectations."
The Ying clan leader burst into tears and patted Ying Zhilin on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, I was not wrong about you.
If your parents and grandfather knew about this, they would be relieved."
The villagers joked, “Zhilin, when you become an official in the future, you must not forget your relatives and the village.”
Ying Zhilin said solemnly, "Don't worry, uncle. I will always remember the help you have given me over the years.
I will never forget your kindness.”
The villager scratched his head embarrassedly.
Wen Yan said at the right time, "It's getting late. Don't go back tonight. Stay at the inn. I'll arrange a carriage to take you back tomorrow morning."
Afterwards, she took everyone to the largest inn in the capital.
On the way, Clan Leader Ying chatted with Ying Zhilin.
After confirming that Ying Zhilinming would take the imperial examination, Ying Zhilin discussed with Wen Yan, "You are the first juren in our village. We must hold a three-day banquet to celebrate!
We should also open an ancestral hall to worship our ancestors and comfort them."
"You young people are busy with your work, so leave this matter to me."
Wen Yan immediately said, "It's just that I've never hosted a banquet like this before. I'm afraid I can only contribute a little money, so I need you, the clan leader, to take charge of the overall situation."
After hearing Yan's words, Patriarch Ying felt that he was very important.
You should know that the Lin couple would break up without him as the pillar of their family.
Clan leader Ying suddenly became energetic and his face was flushed.
After confirming the graduation banquet, they went to the inn.
He booked half of the inn for them to rest, and also booked five tables at the restaurant next door to thank the villagers for their help.
Inside the mansion of Marquis Jinping.
Huo Yaoxing also got all the information about Ying Zhilin.
Ying Zhilin turned out to be the poor scholar that Wen Yan married.
For some reason, Huo Yaoxing felt very upset.
He unzipped his collar and breathed easier.
Although he had never noticed Ying Zhilin's appearance, he thought he must be like a tenant farmer in the fields, dark, ugly, and smelling of mud.
Wen Yanding was unwilling to be abandoned by himself, so he asked the peasant to take part in the provincial examination and surpass him.
Ying Zhilin also went to study at Wutong Academy shortly after his marriage.
It is said that Ji Ruhui, the principal of Wutong Academy, gave him a lot of guidance.
No wonder he was able to pass the imperial examination.
Huo Yaoxing recognized Ji Ruhui's teaching ability.
In my previous life, I didn’t even have the qualifications to make it into the top ten.
However, under Ji Ruhui's guidance, he won the third place.
pity.
That old man Ji Ruhui was so stingy that he even refused to share his connections with him.
He had no choice but to make the old man angry to death to prevent future troubles.
It should be known that Lin was able to pass the imperial examination, so he might have some talent for studying.
If Ji Ruhui had continued to give guidance, Ying Zhilin might have really passed the imperial examination and become a Jinshi.
no!
In this life, Wen Yan is not worthy of rising to the top, but only worthy of struggling in the mire.
As his eyes moved, he already had an idea of how to deal with that thing.
As for Qi Yunzhou...
He is determined to be the top scholar in this life, and he will not allow any changes.
Qi Yunzhou, this stumbling block, shouldn't have appeared!
He had made up his mind when another servant came to report.
"Tell me, what's the matter." Huo Yaoxing was in a good mood.
The servant looked up at him and said, "There are rumors out there that you are jealous of Ying Jie because of your marriage to Miss Wen Er, and that Jie Li is superior to you, so... so you have joined forces with the people of the old Ying family to ruin Ying Zhilin's reputation.
The Jingzhao Prefecture has been under investigation, and Mozhu was caught and beaten with ten boards. He was just carried back."
"Idiot! You can't even handle such a small matter!" Huo Yaoxing smashed the teacup in anger.
My mood, which had just gotten better, fell to the bottom again.
Wen Ruyue, who lived across the courtyard, was also furious.
Wen Ruyue couldn't believe what she heard.
Ying Zhilin...actually passed the imperial examination!
If he really had such a talent for studying, why didn't he pass the imperial examination in his previous life and bring honor to himself?
If it was Wen Ruyue, he would have won immediately!
Ying Zhilin was deliberately targeting him and disgusting him.
Huo Yaoxing was not up to the task either. He was clearly sure to win the title of Jieguan, but he just gave it up like that!
Could it be that he still has feelings for Wen Yan?
Would you rather sacrifice your own future to make Wen Yan a superior person again?
no!
She would never allow it!
She was reborn, and she finally managed to trample Wen Yan into the mud, so how could she let her turn over?
She must be more glorious than Wen Yan in her previous life.
Wen Yan became the wife of the third place winner, so she must become the wife of the first place winner.
No one can stop her!
She paced anxiously around the room.
Suddenly, she sat down at the table and started writing.
After a while, she wrote down all the questions for the tomorrow's metropolitan examination and the palace examination.
Thanks to the fact that in her previous life, in order to seduce Huo Yaoxing, she created the illusion that she admired him and memorized the answers to the second examination of the Association and Palace.
Unexpectedly, it would come in handy at this time.
She dried the ink, put away the test papers, and told the maid, "Go, prepare a table of delicious food. I want to have a drink with the prince tonight."
As for Qi Yunzhou, the top scholar in her previous life, she would not let anything unexpected happen to Huo Yaoxing on his way to becoming the top scholar.
Then, there is no need for Qi Yunzhou to go to the examination room.
As for Ying Zhilin, it was already a great honor for him to pass the imperial examination.
What she couldn't get from him, Wen Yan would never get either.
