Feng Shi felt very uncomfortable. Only when he saw Yu Rong and Liu Wenyuan together did he realize his own feelings!
However, everything will have to wait until after the scientific expedition!
For some reason, Yu Rong felt uncomfortable after seeing Feng Shi that day. She wanted to explain, but didn't know how.
Liu Wenyuan finally managed to catch Yu Yan. He mustered up his courage and confessed, "Yu Yan, if I pass the imperial examination, would you mind coming to propose marriage?"
"You like your older sister?" Yu Yan asked.
Liu Wenyuan hurriedly explained, "No, Yu Yan, I like you, I've liked you from the very beginning."
Yu Yan: "...But I don't like you."
Liu Wenyuan: "I can give you everything you want, isn't that good?"
Yu Yan: "Don't say anything more. I'll pretend I didn't hear anything. Just focus on your exam. Don't think about or mention anything else."
“You like Qian Duobao, right? He’s just a businessman; what can he give you in the future?” Liu Wenyuan said.
Yu Yan retorted angrily, "Liu Wenyuan, if you say such things again, I'll beat you so badly you won't be able to take the imperial examination!"
Liu Wenyuan watched Yu Yan's departing figure, his heart breaking into pieces!
Yu Yan turned the corner and saw Qian Duobao standing there watching the commotion: "You heard everything?"
Qian Duobao nodded: "What a pity."
"What's a pity?" Yu Yan said, "Sooner or later I'll go to the world of martial arts and find my Prince Charming!"
"That's not how you use that word, is it?"
"It's none of your business!" Yu Yan left.
Qian Duobao shook his head helplessly!
After the scientific expedition, Liu Wenyuan bid farewell. He had oversimplified things. Even if he had succeeded, he would have been alone and unable to support himself. In the end, he chose to be sent to a post outside the capital to hone his skills.
To Rou Niang's surprise, many years later, Liu Niangzi wrote to say that Liu Wenyuan had met Xiao Cao again by chance, and the two got together.
However, Zhao Xiu eventually died of illness.
Over time, Li Si developed feelings for Liu Niangzi and eventually ran the Bao Ni pastry shop together.
After the scientific expedition, Qian Duobao was given a sinecure, spending his days keeping Yan Hustle company!
Feng Shi wrote a petition in blood, finally clearing his mother's name and bringing down Aunt Feng and his father!
But his act of putting righteousness before family also brought him even more rumors and gossip. Feng Shi had been lying low for many years and no longer cared. In just a few years, he rose through the ranks and became the most impartial and incorruptible official!
On a sunny morning, Feng Shi came to propose marriage!
Her beautiful face flushed with shyness as she nodded. A perfect match for Tian Ou!
Not long after her marriage, Yu Rong gave birth to a son, and the family of three lived happily ever after!
Yu Yan eventually left the capital and traveled around. In the same year she left, Qian Duobao resigned from his official post and followed her.
In a picturesque paradise, Yu Yan watched Qian Duobao ride a white horse toward her, and at that moment, her heart fluttered!
The two spent more than a year together, got married in a mountain village, and then returned with their child. Not long after handing the child over to their parents, the two ran away again!
When Yu Jin reached marriageable age, Rou Niang had introduced her to many potential partners, but she declined them all.
She couldn't let go of Mo Xiaojin and kept waiting for an answer.
The emperor did not hold another imperial concubine selection. After many experiences, Wang Yaofu ruined herself. The Sun and Moon couple supported each other until old age in the palace. Their civil and military struggles eventually ended in reconciliation. They lived their lives with their children, and Liu Ping'er became their final haven.
After the emperor passed the throne to Mo Xiaojin, he traveled the world with Liu Ping'er.
Mo Xiaojin eventually married Yu Jin and declared that he would not select any concubines. The ministers initially objected, but after Yu Jin gave birth to five princes and three princesses, no one objected anymore.
When Xiao Wu was a little older, he fell in love with a female swordswoman from the martial arts world and brought her home. Rou Niang was surprised because the girl looked too much like Hua Ruyi!
Finally, after decades, the old sisters' family regained face through the marriage of their children!
Hua Niangzi survived a near-death experience by being rescued by a swordsman. The two fell in love and lived in seclusion.
As the sun rises and sets, day after day, Rou Niang's hair has turned white. Mo Bei supports her, and the two of them hold hands as they sit on a bench, watching the sunset.
The setting sun cast long, long shadows of the two of them...
(The End)
