Chapter 486: Zhao Houming rides a horse in the streets, and becomes the top scorer in the high school entrance examination
The third place winner, Shangguan Xiangkun, was even more handsome, the kind that the princess wanted to marry the princess to. Fortunately, although the emperor had many princesses, it was not yet time to choose a consort, otherwise Shangguan Xiangkun might have been able to marry the princess.
Zhao Houming, on the other hand, has a more heroic look, probably because he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child.
Therefore, when Xie Qinglin proposed to transfer Kai, Zhao Houming and Shangguan Xiangkun opposed it from the bottom of their hearts.
Zhao Houming was the eldest princess's son, so he was confident. He could talk to someone from aristocratic family like Xie Qinglin without any hesitation. "Brother Xie, you should take a look at what you look like!"
Shangguan Xiangkun, on the other hand, only smiled subtly. Mainly because Shangguan Xiangkun sounded like he came from a prominent family, but in reality, he came from a humble background. Therefore, he couldn't afford to offend either of the two above him.
No matter what the atmosphere was like between the three of them, it didn't affect their joy at the moment. After studying so hard for so many years, they finally made it to high school!
No matter whether you come from a poor family or a wealthy family, studying is hard. It’s just that people from poor families suffer more due to limited conditions.
Zhao Houming and the other two rode out of the palace, getting pelted with handkerchiefs and flowers as they went. Zhao Houming was pelted with fewer, mainly because he was more agile and could dodge some of them. Xie Qinglin and Shangguan Xiangkun couldn't do that, so they could only smile and bear it.
When they reached the restaurant where Zhao Lingmeng and the others were, Zhao Houming's smile became noticeably brighter.
"What's wrong with Brother Zhao? Why are you getting happier and happier?" Shangguan Yunkun looked at Zhao Houming, who was more energetic, and was very puzzled.
Xie Yunqing laughed and teased, "Brother Zhao's relatives and fiancée must be there. How could he not be happy?"
"Brother Xie is right. I am indeed very happy that my mother is here." Zhao Houming did not think that this was something shameful. He looked even happier when his mother was mentioned.
Zhao Lingmeng upstairs was also very excited at the moment, but there were four children next to her who were almost going crazy, so she looked the calmer one.
"Second brother, here!"
"Second Brother"
"Second cousin"
"Wow, second brother is really the top scorer! Look." Fan Houyang was so excited that he almost fell down. Fortunately, Chunshui was quick to hold him back.
Zhao Lingmeng could only instruct Chunshui and the others to watch one person each, so that Zhao Lingmeng could feel at ease.
Zhao Houjing and his friends were throwing flowers down crazily, and the scene scared Zhao Lingmeng so much that she stepped aside.
Zhao Lingmeng, haunted by her past life, was simply curious about whether it would hurt if the flowers fell on her. She figured she could ask Ming'er later.
Zhao Houming had already seen his mother and brother in the carriage at this time, and he waved to them with a smile.
As a result, all the unmarried girls in the restaurant were in an uproar. They all thought that the number one scholar was waving at them, and then they started to pour flowers down like crazy.
Xie Qinglin and Shangguan Yunkun both silently moved a little further away from Zhao Houming. It was too scary, absolutely too scary.
"Brother Zhao, take it easy!" Xie Qinglin couldn't help but stop Zhao Houming's actions. He felt that he really couldn't bear the enthusiasm of these people anymore.
"I'll listen to you, Brother Xie." Zhao Houming had already received the flower his mother had thrown him, and he didn't care about anything else. So he acted very easygoing.
He just carefully put the flower his mother threw to him next to his ear and smiled proudly.
Xie Qinglin rolled his eyes speechlessly when he saw Zhao Houming's behavior. As if he didn't see who threw the flower, Xie Qinglin thought to himself, Brother Zhao is indeed quite filial, not the kind of person who only acts superficially.
At this time, the eldest princess's son finally caught Xie Qinglin's eye.
Zhao Houming: That’s not necessary!
"Okay, stop looking. Everyone has left. Let's go back too! Chen'er, come to my place for dinner before going back?" After Zhao Lingmeng said this, she let Qiuyue and others tidy up her skirt.
"Okay!" Yang Chengchen agreed immediately.
Fan Houyang felt that this cousin was simply unbearable to look at, and could only helplessly remind him: "Why don't you pretend to refuse first!"
"No, no, auntie doesn't care about these things!" Yang Chengchen said, and took the initiative to go over and get a cloak for Zhao Lingmeng.
Zhao Lingmeng thought Yang Chengchen was quite good, so she took the initiative to suggest, "Why don't you send your favorite chef to my house to learn from him? It's not a good idea for you to always like eating out!"
Yang Chengchen had always wanted to bring it up, but he was embarrassed because his grandmother had offended his aunt before. Now that his aunt had brought it up, he felt like it was a blessing from heaven and couldn't wait to reply, "Yes, yes, thank you for your concern for me, aunt!"
"Auntie, come and let me help you!" Yang Chengchen stepped forward actively and offered his services.
How could Yang Chengchen possibly do this kind of work? Qiuyue quickly stepped forward and held Zhao Lingmeng's hand steadily, smiling and saying, "Prince Ruihe, you should just play with the Third Young Master! Don't steal the servants' jobs."
Fan Houyang was also very perceptive and quickly pulled Yang Chengchen, "Just come with us. Mom has Aunt Qiuyue and the others with her! We don't need you!"
While Fan Houyang and Yang Chengchen were talking, Zhao Lingmeng had already left with his men.
Yang Chengchen had no choice but to leave with Fan Houyang, but he also understood what his aunt meant. He was old now, and it was time for him to establish the dignity of a prince. Doing such things in a place like this, people would inevitably think he was a child.
Although he is a prince, when something happens, who would think that what a child says makes sense?
So although Yang Chengchen didn't care about these things, he was not ungrateful. Anyway, he was very happy to be walking with Fan Houyang.
Zhao Houming returned after the Qionglin Banquet ended in the evening. Although he returned very late, Zhao Houjing and the others were waiting for him at Menglin Courtyard! They were waiting for Zhao Houming to come back and congratulate him as soon as possible.
As soon as Zhao Houming returned home, he went straight to Menglin Courtyard without even changing his clothes. He knew his mother must be waiting for him, and he wanted to let her see him in his top scholar uniform first.
Zhao Houming entered Menglin Courtyard and knelt down in front of Zhao Lingmeng. He kowtowed three times before looking at her with admiration. "Mom, you are the mother of the top scholar now. Are you happy?"
Zhao Lingmeng personally helped Zhao Houming up, feeling overwhelmed with emotion. When she first came here, this child was still a little kid, but now he has grown up so much and is about to become an official. How could she not be happy? "Happy, happy!"
Zhao Houming wiped Zhao Lingmeng's tears with his hands, "Mom, don't cry, your son will support you from now on!"
