Chapter 291 291.Who is Shen Xingluo?

As the legitimate daughter of the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance, Song Chan'er can be said to be very popular among the noble ladies in the capital.

Except for the female relatives of the royal family who she did not dare to offend, other noble ladies from official families would give her some face when they saw her. In addition, her mother was also highly regarded by Mr. Song, and she developed an arrogant character over time. temper.

But ever since she met Xie Zhi, Song Chaner's limelight has been suppressed by her, and she suffered a lot of anger.

No way, in terms of appearance, she is only pretty, and there is still a lot of gap between her and Xie Zhi, who has outstanding appearance. Moreover, the latter has always been famous for her talent and her temperament is also widely praised.

Only in terms of status, Song Chan'er can be said to have every advantage. As a concubine, Xie Zhike is not enough. It was precisely because of this that she used this matter to tease her verbally just now.

"Sister Xie really understands righteousness, and she deserves to be the daughter of Xie Yushi."

Even His Majesty was carried out by her. No matter how arrogant Song Chan'er is, she knows that Xie Zhi's words cannot Refute again.

The words were so sinister that anyone could understand the meaning of her words. The other girls in the box shut up to avoid becoming a fish in the pond.

Song Chan'er is the only legitimate daughter of the Minister of Household Affairs. Although the third-grade official is somewhat unpopular among the dignitaries in the capital, everyone knows that this position is in charge of the world's granaries and official promotions. It has a very important position and will not be offended if it can be avoided.

However, Xie Zhi just smiled slightly and answered as if he couldn't hear the sarcasm in her words:

"Sister Song is joking. As a citizen of Dayan, you should."

"Hmph. . ”

Song Chaner felt like she was punched on the cotton, and her heart felt even more uncomfortable.

"Since Sister Xie is so worried about His Majesty, we can't be ignorant, right? Xi'er, go downstairs and ask which young master the top few on this list are."

When she didn't know what Xie Zhi's purpose was for coming here early in the morning to make fun?

Song Chaner has a good relationship with an in-law of the Xie family, and has long known some news about the Xie family from her.

The relationship between Xie Zhi and her aunt was not good. If she had not established a reputation for herself as a talented woman, she would have been beaten to death by her aunt. However, everything has its pros and cons. Although Xie Zhi gained some benefits for herself, as a concubine, her marriage was controlled by her aunt.

Mrs. Xie regarded her as a thorn in her side because of her reputation as a talented woman, so naturally she would not find a good family for her. Unfortunately, Xie Zhi could only work hard to make plans for the future. I am afraid that this is why she came today.

The maid known as Xi'er quickly went downstairs. At this time, the guests in the restaurant already knew by word of mouth the names of the top students in this exam and who they came from. , she got the news she wanted almost effortlessly.

"Kunkou——"

Xi'er knocked on the wooden door of the restaurant's box and soon stood in front of several noble ladies.

"Miss, I have all inquired clearly."

"Tell me, who is at the top of the list and which family he comes from? Is it the Yun family in Zhuozhou City, the Lin family in Jiangnan, or the Yunzhou family? The Bai family?”

“No, none of them.”

Xi'er looked confused, "The top one is a student named Shen Xingluo."

Shen Xingluo, Shen?

The ladies in the box looked puzzled, "Are there any aristocratic families in Dayan named Shen?"

Have they never heard of it before?

It’s not surprising that a few people think so. It’s really because major aristocratic families have controlled 70% to 80% of the books of the Great Yan Dynasty for hundreds of years. Ordinary people with no background rarely have spare money to study. Even if they have Shudu also has a gap between him and his family members because of his lack of books and vision.

Xi'er said, "According to the students downstairs, this man is Jieyuan who took the autumn examination of Lin'an Prefecture last year. He is a child from a poor family, not a young master from any aristocratic family."

"What, he is actually a child from a poor family? ”

Song Chaner was really surprised now, and the others were also surprised.

Except for visiting Mr. Du, Shen Xingluo has not had any contact with other officials since entering the capital. His name as Jieyuan of Lin'an Prefecture is only somewhat famous among the small circle of students preparing for the exam. These noble ladies have never It’s not surprising to hear that.

"It's a pity that you are from a poor family." It's a pity that the fate between Yijia and Yijia is still shallow.

Scientific examination is an important way for the imperial court to select officials. Your Majesty and other major officials attach great importance to it. However, this selection is not absolutely transparent.

Every official family will arrange for their own people to participate, and the emperor will also weigh the checks and balances between the various forces. This will leave fewer places for the children of poor families, especially the three places in the first class.

"It is indeed a pity."

Song Chan'er looked at Xie Zhi with interest, her plan might have failed.

The rankings of several major families in Zhuozhou City, Jiangzhou and Yunzhou this time are not outstanding, and the subsequent palace examinations will also include those students from Beijing who have already passed the examination, so the chance of those few people entering the first class is almost is zero.

As for Shen Xingluo, a young man from a poor family, Song Chaner intuitively disliked Xie Zhi.

So what if he is lucky enough to get a good ranking in the palace examination? Without a background, it will be difficult for Xie Zhi to get married. It is impossible for Xie Zhi to have the courage to marry.

Tsk~ It’s so miserable. It seems that sister Xie can only think of another way.

“Okay, we’ve finished watching the fun, it’s time for us to leave.”

She stood up and headed downstairs. The others followed after seeing this, but Xie Zhi stayed at the end because she had something to think about.

“Miss?”

The maid’s tentative cry sounded from behind, and Xie Zhi sighed quietly.

“It’s okay.”

It seems that it still doesn’t work

As soon as the group walked out of the restaurant door, they heard several students around them cheering to the side.

“Look, that’s Shen Xingluo of Lin’an Prefecture, Huiyuan for this additional test!”

Shen Xingluo?

Everyone looked towards the teahouse. At this time, Qin Zheng and others happened to go out and prepare to go back to their homes.

Song Chan'er and the others couldn't help but look towards where the man was pointing, and saw a figure of Qingjun standing out among the crowd. Although he was wearing an ordinary green shirt, it could not hide that figure. His handsome facial features and those deep and captivating black eyes.

Song Chan'er was suddenly heartbroken, and Xie Zhi behind her was also stunned.

Is he Shen Xingluo?

The Shen family entered the courtyard. Cheng Xi, who was unaware of this, was teaching Shen Xun how to make pot stickers in the back kitchen.

Next to her, Shen Xingqi, who has always loved cooking, looked absent-minded, "Sister-in-law, today is the day when the rankings are released. Are you really not in a hurry?"

"Why are you anxious? You have no confidence in your brother?"

"." Is this a matter of confidence?

Shen Xingqi couldn't help but roar loudly in her heart, and her face looked like it was broken down.

This was the first time she felt there was a communication problem between the two.

“But.”

"Stop it, go prepare the ingredients and celebrate when your brother comes back later."

Huh?

The little girl looked confused, "What are you celebrating?"

"Of course it's to celebrate your brother's inclusion on the list."

"."So, what do you think of your brother? Where does confidence come from?
