"Hanyu, what's wrong with you?"
Cheng Yue reached out and patted Xue Hanyu.
"Ah, I, I'm fine!"
Xue Hanyu was startled and spoke in a panic.
"Aunt San, Auntie, are you bullying Hanyu?"
Cheng Jinxing suddenly walked over.
"You little bastard... Hey, Hanyu? How can you be so disrespectful?"
Ji Feifei discovered something wrong with Cheng Jinxing's address.
"Third sister-in-law, let me tell you!"
Seeing that Cheng Jinxing had already sat down next to Xue Hanyu, Cheng Yue pulled Ji Feifei and whispered in her ear.
Ji Feifei's eyes widened, and when Cheng Yue finished speaking, she was completely stunned.
"You, go tell Madam Xue that I'll take Hanyu to the room to chat."
It took Ji Feifei a while to come back to her senses. Then she instructed the maid, stood up and took Xue Hanyu away.
"You're so good, Xue Hanyu! We grew up together and haven't seen each other for just two or three years. How dare you not tell me something?"
Ji Feifei pulled Xue Hanyu as they walked.
"Yes, that's right! Even though we didn't grow up together, we established a deep friendship last year, and you didn't even tell me!"
Cheng Yue stood on the other side of Xue Hanyu.
Soon, Xue Hanyu was dragged to Ji Feifei's room.
…
After that night, everyone in the Cheng family knew who Cheng Jinxing's sweetheart was.
Cheng Shun and Jiang Shi were still a little confused. This was the girl they had always treated as their own daughter, and now she was going to become their granddaughter-in-law?
Cheng Kang's family didn't think it was a big deal. The Cheng family and the Xue family were two families that had nothing to do with each other and there was no generational relationship between them.
Gu Xuelan is Cheng Jinxing's mother. As long as the two elders don't particularly object, she can make this decision for Cheng Jinxing.
However, everything has to wait until Cheng Jinxing finishes the palace examination.
The eldest princess was indeed interested in marrying into the Cheng family, mainly because Gu Yan'er liked them herself.
However, Cheng Jinxing already had someone in his heart and had no such intention towards Gu Yan'er, so the princess couldn't force him.
Before, she always thought that the Cheng family and the Xue family would oppose the two of them, but after this night, she also realized that neither the Cheng family nor the Xue family would object.
Maybe after the palace examination tomorrow, both families will start discussing the marriage.
Therefore, the eldest princess gave up this idea. After returning home that night, she warned Gu Yan'er to stay away from Cheng Jinxing in the future.
Gu Yan'er was furious and sneaked away in the middle of the night. If she didn't sneak away, would she have to stay and watch Cheng Jinxing get married? She couldn't do that.
…
September 22nd is the day of the palace examination.
In the open space in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, students taking the civil examination and students taking the military examination stood in two separate groups.
The emperor came slowly with the crown prince and all the civil and military officials.
Before the emperor finished his speech, a large number of assassins suddenly appeared in the field.
The scene was chaotic for a while.
Those who protect the emperor protect the emperor, and those who protect yourself protect yourself.
Cheng Jinxing received Cheng Yue's advice. He asked Cheng Jinyan to keep the students calm and asked He Zheng to stay by his side and not leave even a step.
At this moment, it was Mo Zheng standing next to the emperor. Shanshui accompanied Master Li outside the palace waiting for news.
The disaster was not completely resolved until the afternoon.
The emperor was furious and ordered the prince to investigate the matter thoroughly.
The palace examination was postponed to September 23rd.
In the evening, the Cheng family sat together.
Cheng Kang dismissed all the servants, leaving only the masters, including Cheng Yue's two children who were still crying loudly.
