Chapter 250: Unlimited Scenery
"Lu Yanshu passed the imperial examination with three first prizes!"
“Top of the high school list!”
"Pass the imperial examination and get the first place in the imperial examination!!"
"Hurry up and announce the good news, go and announce the good news..."
"Li Zixi, the top scorer in high school..."
"You know what, Li Zixi is really good-looking. Even the top students in this class have outstanding looks."
When Mrs. Xu heard the good news, she burst into tears of joy.
"Did you get it right? Is it Yanshu's name?" Xu pulled Dengzhi, her hands and feet were cold and her expression was nervous.
"It's a winner, it's a winner. General Rong had one of his shoes squeezed off and he went to see it in person. Our young master has won the first place in the imperial examination!"
"Madam, you have finally made it through all the hardships!" Dengzhi couldn't help but shed tears.
Xu wiped her tears with her handkerchief and said, "Go home quickly and wait for the good news."
"Have you prepared the wedding money?"
"It's already been prepared, don't worry, ma'am."
As Dengzhi was helping Xu down the stairs, someone shouted, "Is this the number one scholar's mother, Madam Xu?"
Mrs. Xu stood at the stairs, her face slightly red.
She smiled slightly and nodded to everyone, who then congratulated her loudly, "Congratulations, Madam Xu."
Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "After this busy period is over, Yunniang will prepare some wine in the mansion, and invite everyone to share in the joyous atmosphere."
"Thank you ma'am."
"I must come and share in the joy."
After Xu left, everyone looked at each other.
"Is this... the yellow-faced wife that Lord Lu mentioned?"
"Hiss... Is Lord Lu crazy? This is called a yellow-faced woman? Isn't she prettier than his concubine?" Everyone widened their eyes in shock.
Is Lu Yuanze crazy? !
"He even expelled three sons and one daughter from the family tree. Isn't he crazy?" someone mocked with a sneer on his face.
"This is the eldest son who won the top three places in the imperial examination. His ancestral grave is filled with joy!" Everyone looked envious.
"I heard that Mrs. Xu's third son is also very good at studying and very humble. He keeps saying that he is the dumbest in the family." Everyone sighed, how could he be so good at giving birth?
At this moment, the court had just come down.
Lu Yuanze pulled at his collar; the official uniform was a little too big.
The handsome man in the past now looks rather disheveled and haggard, no longer as elegant as before.
"Sir Lu, congratulations." The Minister of Rites bowed to Lu Yuanze.
"Lord Lu is so lucky. Congratulations, Lord Lu." The Duke of Protectorate also congratulated with a sarcastic smile.
Many colleagues bowed to Lu Yuanze and said, "Congratulations, Sir Lu."
Lu Yuanze was stunned.
He had been extremely upset these past few days because of Lu Jinghuai's affairs. He looked dazed and even absent-minded during court sessions.
Lu Yuanze paused, thinking about what happy event was.
Colleagues looked at each other and looked at him in surprise.
"Master Lu doesn't know?"
"Your son has won the first place in the imperial examination. He has brought honor to the family and the ancestors! Congratulations!"
"Lord Lu, although you lost a marquis, your son is doing well."
"He is the youngest person to pass the imperial examination. He will have a bright future."
"I heard that His Majesty intends to find a teacher for the prince. Lord Lu, you must not forget us when you become successful in the future."
"Lord Lu is so lucky. Although his son has been paralyzed for ten years and has not touched a book for ten years, he actually got the top score in the imperial examination. If you think about it carefully, this child... I'm afraid he had the ability to get the top score before he was paralyzed. Hiss... What a terrifying talent this is." Everyone spoke one after another.
Lu Yuanze's heart suddenly shrank and it felt like a needle pricking him.
Three honors in the imperial examination?
At this moment, he seemed to be abandoned by the whole world. He could only vaguely hear the compliments from his colleagues, and his mind was blank.
"Oh, wrong, wrong!" The Duke of Protectorate waved his hands violently.
"It's all my fault for having a bad memory. I remembered it wrong. I forgot that Lord Lu expelled the eldest son from the family and even crossed out the family tree. I heard that he also wrote a letter of severance, completely breaking off the relationship."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell silent.
Everyone looked at Lord Lu's face, which turned from red to white, so pale that he almost fell down.
"Master Lu won't blame me, right?"
Lu Yuanze forced a bitter smile: "It's okay, it's okay."
As my colleague walked away, I could still hear a faint voice in my ear: "You must go to the No. 1 Scholar's mansion later to ask for a glass of light wine."
"Mrs. Xu has finally made it."
"What a pity. Originally it was an opportunity for the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion, but now... oh, I am unlucky..."
Lu Yuanze looked like he was slapped in the face and his face turned pale.
He staggered out of the palace.
There was a bustle outside the palace.
"The top scholar is riding a horse in parade through the streets..." Little children were running and playing on the side of the road, and everyone looked up at the three of them.
"Oh my, the top scholar and the third scholar are so good-looking..."
"I think the champion is better looking..."
"I think Tanhua is pretty..." everyone argued.
Lu Yanshu rode a tall horse and paraded down the long street, wearing a big red flower and with a red face. The girls in the attic threw handkerchiefs at the three men.
"Master Zhuangyuan, please take my handkerchief, Master Zhuangyuan..."
"Look at me, Mr. Tanhua..." the girls laughed.
Unmarried girls are extremely reserved, but when a top scholar appears every three years, they become particularly open-minded.
There is even a custom of catching a son-in-law from the list.
Just now, the third place winner Li Zixi was almost captured. Fortunately, Lu Yanshu brought enough guards to save his life.
“It’s so terrible, so terrible…”
The fair-faced young boy next to Lu Yanshu blushed.
His appearance was even more delicate than Lu Yanshu's, but his figure was a little thin.
"Ouch..." Li Zixi suddenly covered his head.
"Who put stones in the handkerchief..." Li Zixi covered his forehead with his hands, and there was faint traces of blood on his forehead.
"Still so unlucky..." Li Zixi looked desperate.
"Brother Yanshu, can I go to your house to rest for a while?" asked Li Zixi, the third place winner in the imperial examination, carefully.
"Of course." Lu Yanshu was extremely helpless.
At the corner, Jiang Yunjin was sitting in a carriage, and her eyes turned red when she saw the handsome young man.
"Originally, it should have been mine."
"Three top honors in the imperial examinations bring endless glory..."
"It should have been mine..." A tear rolled down Jiang Yunjin's cheeks. Thinking of the incompetent and furious Lu Jinghuai in the mansion, her heart was filled with disgust.
Lu Yuanze also looked dazed.
He didn't even know whether to cry or laugh.
Good news, my son passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer.
Because of the bad thing, his son was expelled from the house and a letter of severance of the relationship was written.
What did he do? How could you play such a good hand of cards so badly?
He abandoned his eldest son for Lu Jinghuai's talent.
Now, Lu Jinghuai has been exposed for plagiarism, and his eldest son has made a comeback and become the top scorer. How ridiculous!
He's like a joke.
When Lu Yanshu brought the top scholar Li Zixi back to the mansion, Xu had already sent away the relatives who came to congratulate him.
I had to go to the palace to express my gratitude early in the morning, which is why I have been delayed until now.
"The young master has returned home." the servant shouted.
The maids and servants were all delighted. Today, Xu gave everyone triple their monthly salary and also prepared a sumptuous meal. Who wouldn't be happy! !
Xu hurried out the door.
I happened to meet Lu Yanshu.
"Mother, this is Master Li." Lu Yanshu introduced him to Xu with a smile.
"Is this Mr. Li, the third place winner of the imperial examination? I caught a glimpse of him from afar while parading on the street today. He is worthy of being the third place winner." Since ancient times, the third place winners have all been of top-notch appearance.
Xu wondered in her heart, people outside say that Mr. Li has extremely bad luck, is it true or false?
Just finished.
The plaque on the door suddenly loosened and flew straight towards Li Zixi.
