Chapter 424 The Investiture
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56"Very nice?" Sheng Weiqiao was curious. Usually, she was invited to discuss something very troublesome rather than something very nice with Huan Yehe, after all. Perplexed, she couldn't imagine what Huan Yehe was felicitating on.
But Huan Yehe chuckled, "Do you remember the commotion on January the tenth? The Meng Family put their recompense on hold with them going through a sensitive period and the upcoming wedding of His Majesty. Now that the Empress has finally married into the imperial house, she'll naturally pay you back. It's been two months since the incident, after all."
She pulled out a small piece of red paper from her sleeve and unfolded it, "These are the titles drafted by the Empress Dowager and the Empress. Pick three for yourselves."
"The titles?" Amazed, Sheng Weiqiao uttered before even taking a look at that draft, "But which rank of nobility will we be in?"
"You'll all be the princess." Huan Yehe said, "But

The result of the court examination came out sooner than that of the metropolitan examination, given the smaller number of candidates.The ranking was released on March the twenty-fourth, ensuing the examination set on the twenty-second. And the imperial examination wrapped up.To many people's surprise, and in a minority of people's expectations, Sheng Shuihe won the first place.With the absence of Gao Chengxuan, who was said to get injured in a fall, Huang Wujiu won the second place.The third place was a candidate strange to Sheng Weiqiao's party, whose political position also remained unknown to them.Putting aside the three best candidates, the fourth place was won by Xu Baomo, who came only eighteenth in the metropolitan examination, which also surprised Sheng Shuihe. He communicated with Xu Baomo on their essays after the metropolitan examination, and he estimated that Xu Baomo's rank wouldn't fluctuate

Now that the gangplank was in place, Xu Zijing Couple supposed Senior Master Sheng would finally get off the ship.But the sailor responded, "Senior Master, I wasn't being lazy. I was just wondering whether you would oblige me with a glance at Eldest Childe, who was said to come top in the court examination. I've known him as a handsome, highbrow, refined, and calm man who has a good memory and great talent, who reads a lot but doesn't neglect the practice of martial art, and who respects his seniors and befriends his juniors since long ago!"Then, Senior Master Sheng stepped back from the gangplank, "My grandson is indeed a handsome, highbrow, refined, and calm man who has a good memory and great talent, who reads a lot but doesn't neglect the practice of martial art, and who respects his seniors and befriends his juniors... But he's modest, as every Sheng is! He won't mind it! You just follow me up. Maybe he needs someone to run errands!"

However, despite Sheng Weiqiao's goodwill, Old Marquis Xu made his way to the back hall as soon as they arrived at Ningwei Marquis Family and roared all along, "Where is the little br*t? Ask him to come to me! I'll take his surname if I fail to beat him to death today!"Old Madam Xia only laughed coldly, "So, you'll be named Xu, as you are now!"Sheng Weiqiao felt relieved as she heard that. Fortunately, Old Madam Xia was also here. She wouldn't let Xu Baomo be beaten up, would she?But Xu Zijing Couple exchanged a glance and heaved a sigh. So, it wasn't Old Marquis Xu but Old Madam Xia who had spoilt Xu Baomo!But Old Madam Xia continued coldly, "As I told you to discipline him, you must thrash him every day! He won't repent even if you beat him to death now! Hang him up every day before the meal, lash him with a whip steeped with saline water, and he will stay good!"Old Marquis Xu retorted, "That's what we di

After they two entered the Mansion together, they got totally different treatment. Senior Master Sheng, who was smiling originally smiled much more happily after seeing Sheng Shuihe, as if he couldn't wait to walk down to hold this grandson in his arms at once!Old Madam Ming was also very happy to see such a magnificent younger junior who looked so handsome and just became the top scholar although Sheng Shuihe was not her biological grandson. After all, since there was such a talented person in the eldest branch, the second branch and the third branch would also benefit a lot.However, Old Marquis Xu and Old Madam Xia looked at their grandson so coldly when he came in!Seeing this situation, Xu Baomo's legs felt like jelly when he just passed the threshold. Would it be better for him to kneel down to admit his error so that they would beat him not so hard or he could just slip away?At this time, he was so jealous of Sheng Shuihe

Old Madam Ming was shocked when she heard this idea. Like Sheng Weiqiao, she thought that there was no reason for a mother to frame her son in the world. Did Xu Family want to continue the engagement of Sheng Weiqiao and Xu Baomo in another way?She had been in Nanfeng County all the time before, which was far away from Chang'an, so the communication was inconvenient. As Sheng Weiqiao’s step-grandmother, she was not so close to the eldest branch. She was not very clear about why the engagement between Sheng Weiqiao and Xu Baomo, which was originally favored by both families, was broken.Old Madam Ming only knew that it was mainly because Xu Caikui asked Sheng Weiqiao to leave her family.At this moment, she couldn't help but doubt that maybe Xu Family regretted it and they wanted to use this method to determine the engagement for the two families. Friendship spanned several generations in their families, and Xu Baomo got a good place in the exa
Deceive me, Marry me Chapter 430 State Duke Zheng Was So Distressed
State Duke Zheng, Meng Hui, had already been over 60 years old. Because of the long years of hard work in politics and his being addicted to his beautiful concubines, although he had been living an extravagant life since the beginning of this dynasty, he looked somewhat old.But to be honest, looking at his eyes and brows, even when he was young, he was probably not a handsome man... After all, his elder sister, Empress Dowager Meng, was not favored by the former emperor just because she was not beautiful.But he looked very upright. Even though he didn't even get the title of scholar, he looked knowledgeable and so detached.When Sheng Weiqiao followed Senior Master Sheng and Sheng Shuihe to enter the door and saw him at first glance, she thought he must be some great scholar who had read many poems and books and been so learned.After listening to his introduction, she secretly thought that appearances were really deceiving.

Well, I took a lot of trouble to help him to be the Number One Scholar, but got nothing in the end, except paving the way for my leading rival's son!This matter was of great importance, not because Shuihe, the Number One Scholar, turned out to be my leading rival's son, but because once the news that I spent years cultivating my leading rival's son got out, it would bring shame on Madam Meng.State Duke Zheng felt a stirring of growing anger as he thought about the matter. Then he said tonelessly, "In addition, we have arrived in Chang'an for a long time. If Sheng Shuihe is your son, why hasn't he visited your family to check whether he is a relative of yours? He may have been away from home at a young age and therefore forgotten his family members. Well, you come here shortly after the court examination. It is quite clear that you have already confirmed that he is your son, or you may even have investigated him and known what happened to him. There may be

People on the spot, except Gaomi King, Princess Gaomi and Sheng Shuihe, all wondered about the answer.Hearing that, State Duke Zheng, who brushed the long beard below his chin and was about to say something, caught the words and stuffed them back in his mouth. Then he looked at Gaomi King's and Princess Gaomi's faces and looked thoughtful."It is a long story." Gaomi King and his wife smiled wanly. Then, when Princess Gaomi was about to say something, Gaomi King suddenly spoke, "Old Marquis Xu and Senior Master Sheng, you have lived in your hometowns and thus may have forgotten what happened in the imperial court decades ago. Well, State Duke Zheng, have you still remembered that I once submitted a memorial and insisted on rummaging through human traders in Chang'an and nearby regions?"State Duke Zheng frowned and then said, "Yeah, I know about it. In those days, Chang'an government arrested a number of human traders and retrieved several kid
