Qin Xue laughed, she actually had this plan.
Moreover, she and Ye Xiaoxiao are cousins, and the Wang family has no other relationship with the Ye family and the Shangguan family, so it would be nice if they could have a childhood marriage.
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't need to listen to Qin Xue's inner thoughts, she could tell her intention from her face, and then she said with a smile.
"We've only just gotten pregnant, and we don't even know if it's a boy or a girl. It's a bit premature for you to get married now."
"Besides, everyone has their own ideas. Even though we are parents, we can't just randomly match our children up."
Qin Xue was not angry when Ye Xiaoxiao rejected her, but was thinking seriously about the meaning of Ye Xiaoxiao's words.
After a long time, Qin Xue nodded with a smile.
"My cousin is right. Let's wait until the little ones grow up."
When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter, and Wang Muzhe hugged Qin Xue in his arms with some doting.
"You, every day, there are always some weird things in your little head."
When Qin Xue heard this, her pretty face turned even redder, and everyone laughed even more happily.
After Ye Xiaoxiao learned that Qin Xue and Wang Muxue were both pregnant, she set her sights on Sun Jingshu.
As the eldest sister-in-law, Sun Jingshu is slightly more stable than other girls, and she likes quietness, so although she is standing in front of everyone at this moment, she just watches them play.
Suddenly noticing Ye Xiaoxiao's gaze on her, Sun Jingshu's pretty face turned red.
Under Ye Xiaoxiao's inquiring gaze, Sun Jingshu nodded shyly.
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoxiao felt even happier and reached out to pat Sun Jingshu's hand.
"That's great! I didn't expect that we would all get pregnant right around the same time. Now, I won't be lonely when the babies are born."
"Besides, Yangyang and Nuannuan are not much different from them. When the time comes, I can just play with them."
Everyone was very happy, except Mrs. Ye, who was a little worried about the safety of Ye Sheng and his wife.
[It's indeed very good now, but I don't know when Sheng'er and the others will return.]
If a war really breaks out on Dayu's side, they don't know if they will be affected.
Ye Xiaoxiao smiled faintly and walked to Madam Ye. "Mom, why do you look unhappy? Are you worried about Fourth Brother and the others?"
Madam Ye nodded lightly, and Ye Xiaoxiao said softly.
"Mother, don't worry. Fourth brother and Princess Xinya will be back safely soon."
Mrs. Ye nodded, put away the worry on her face, and gently asked Ye Xiaoxiao about some physical matters.
Ye Xiaoxiao answered all the questions one by one. Mrs. Ye was relieved to see that she was fine.
The palace banquet was spent happily with everyone playing and chatting. At nightfall, everyone reluctantly got up and said goodbye.
Ye Xiaoxiao asked Tianxuan and Wang Xiao to personally escort everyone out of the palace, and then she and Shangguan Lingyun returned to the bedroom to rest.
A silent night passed, and early the next morning, Shangguan Lingyun brought Ye Xiaoxiao to the meeting hall.
Although the court officials knew that Ye Xiaoxiao was different, this was indeed the first time that a woman entered the meeting hall.
Many court officials were secretly dissatisfied. Ye Xiaoxiao looked at them one by one and heard their voices clearly.
Shangguan Lingyun held Ye Xiaoxiao in his arms, and therefore through his contact with Ye Xiaoxiao, he could hear everyone's thoughts.
"Everyone, today the Empress and I will personally select the new top scholar and martial arts champion here."
As soon as these words were spoken, the discussion in the court grew louder and louder. Without waiting for the officials to object, Shangguan Lingyun hugged Ye Xiaoxiao and sat down.
Everyone knew that Shangguan Lingyun doted on Ye Xiaoxiao. Seeing this, although they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to say it out loud.
Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the officials who were cursing her in their hearts as a beauty who brings disaster, and then looked away.
"Submit the essays of the top ten candidates in this imperial examination."
As soon as Shangguan Lingyun finished speaking, a palace servant immediately brought up the test paper.
He picked up one at random, took a quick look at it, and then handed it to Ye Xiaoxiao for review.
In this way, it took the two of them about half an hour to finish reading the ten test papers.
"Xiaoxiao, what do you think of the literary talent of these ten people?"
After Ye Xiaoxiao made some simple revisions to Wang Muzhe's evaluation of several people last night, she stood in the hall and told them one by one.
After saying this, he looked at Shangguan Lingyun beside him.
"What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Shangguan Lingyun smiled faintly and nodded, then asked the ten people to come to the hall one by one to make their speeches.
After a series of debates, Shangguan Lingyun placed the ten test papers in different places and marked several of them.
By the time the ten people had finished expressing their views, the eunuch who was to announce the decree was already standing in the hall with the imperial edict in his hand.
"Congratulations to the new top scholar, Liu Yunting of the Liu family."
"Congratulations to the new runner-up, Xu Shu from the Xu family."
"Congratulations to the new top scholar, Sun Haoqun of the Sun family..."
As the list of eunuchs who announced the imperial decree was announced, the ten people below immediately knelt down to express their gratitude, and the others also began to make their own plans.
Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Xiaoxiao had no time to care about these things, because after the imperial examination, it would be the final showdown of the martial arts examination.
According to past practice, the military examination would not require the emperor to personally make the final decision.
However, Shangguan Lingyun knew that Ye Xiaoxiao liked to be lively, and he really needed to select some talents, so he let the top ten candidates in the martial arts examination stay for the final showdown.
As the eunuch who announced the decree shouted "The competition begins", all the contestants on the ring immediately started moving.
Compared to the initial selection, the current showdown is undoubtedly more exciting.
