After Jin Yan visited Prince Ning's Mansion for several days, Wen Lan couldn't sit still.
He couldn't stop Jin Yan from seeing Si Fengxuan, so he could only find a way to stop Si Fengxuan so that he would have no time to find Jin Yan.
When he was a commoner, Si Fengxuan treated him with courtesy.
Now that he has become a marquis, even if he is just a virtual noble, it is enough for Si Fengxuan to take him seriously.
After all, confirming his status as the Marquis would elevate Jin Yan's status, which was something Si Fengxuan was happy to see happen.
From February to April, Wen Lan kept people pestering Si Fengxuan on the pretext of business and spring plowing, and never gave him a chance to meet Jin Yan in private.
When Si Fengxuan sent someone to pick up Jin Yan on the day when the exam results were released, Wen Lan didn't stop him.
"It is often said that 'women and villains are difficult to raise'. In my opinion, my father-in-law is much more difficult to deal with than these two!" Si Fengxuan said.
Jin Yan pinched him and said, "Don't be disrespectful to my father!"
Si Fengxuan suddenly felt aggrieved, "When did I disrespect the Marquis? On the contrary, the Marquis... You have clearly written down all the methods of growing potatoes and corns, and personally awarded them to the old farmer, but he said Farming can only go smoothly with my blessing, but I have to step in for every trivial matter, causing me to rush around all day long for these trivial matters, and I don’t even have time to climb over the wall and visit the prince’s house at night!”
Jin Yan: "..."
Climbing the wall also gives you a sense of superiority, right?
"Yan Yan, you don't want to steal your brother's limelight. You want him to be the center of attention. This will happen soon. Then, isn't it our turn next?" Si Fengxuan asked again.
Jin Yan: "What are we? Do you want to take the No. 1 exam? Or do you want me to dress up as a man?"
Si Fengxuan was speechless and held his forehead.
What's the top exam?
Isn't it enough for a family to have a top scholar who passed six yuan?
He simply made it clear, "Don't pretend to be stupid, you know what I'm talking about. When do you want me to come to propose marriage?"
Jin Yan coughed and said, "I'm only sixteen years old..."
"So what? It's just an engagement, not getting married right away, but if you want to, that's not impossible." Si Fengxuan said eagerly.
It would be best if Yan Yan could grow up under his eyes.
But Wen Lan is already difficult to deal with, and now that he has a brother-in-law who is the number one scholar, it will be difficult for him to achieve his goal.
Jin Yan was also speechless, "You have a good idea!"
Si Fengxuan was very honest, "To tell you the truth, I miss you all the time in my dreams."
The carriage fell silent for a moment.
After a while, Jin Yan lifted the car curtain and looked outside, "It's so lively today."
Si Fengxuan took the opportunity to move closer and sat down next to her. He looked at Jin Yan and said: "Today the results are released, the streets are busier than usual, but after the palace exams, the real event will be when the new scholars are paraded through the streets. Lively."
Jin Yan couldn't help but think of the scene of Xun Yu beating his horse and parading through the streets.
The whole place was crowded with people, just to see the unparalleled Number One Scholar and the Most Beautiful Woman, but that person only had her in mind.
She will never forget that kind of scene and that kind of state of mind.
"What's wrong? Who are you thinking about?" Si Fengxuan's face suddenly darkened.
He looked obviously unhappy, with a bit of innocent anger.
Jin Yan came back to her senses and looked at Si Fengxuan with slight surprise. She didn't expect him to be so sensitive. The scene of Xun Yu's high school parade flashed through her mind, and he noticed the abnormality.
Si Fengxuan stared at her closely, "Yan Yan, tell me, what are you thinking about?"
Jin Yan explained without hesitation: "I miss my brother. I was wondering if my brother would be so good-looking, would His Majesty impulsively make him the concubine?"
Si Fengxuan frowned, a little disbelieving, "Really?"
Jin Yan's eyes were sincere, "Really."
Si Fengxuan looked at her for a moment, seemingly relieved, and asked, "Then what do you want Jin Yang to think of?"
"Did I keep my word?" Jin Yan asked back.
Si Fengxuan: "Naturally."
Jin Yan said: "In my opinion, as long as I can live up to my brother's hard work for many years, anything will work."
As soon as he finished speaking, people were already shouting congratulations on the street.
Jin Yan hurriedly said: "Yunzhu, hurry up, it seems that the results have been released."
The carriage was obviously faster.
Si Fengxuan supported the excited Jin Yan and comforted him: "With your brother's talent, his name will definitely appear last. Sit down first and you will see it soon."
As before, they went to the restaurant after passing.
The shopkeeper personally served a table of food and wine, but Jin Yan had no intention of eating. She lay at the window and looked outside, waiting for the official to come and announce the good news.
"Sit down and be careful not to fall out."
Si Fengxuan pulled Jin Yan out of the window and pushed her onto a chair to sit down. After a while, He Shuzhou's name appeared outside.
"It's your brother's classmate. He ranks high. It seems he does have some real ability." Si Fengxuan said.
Jin Yan: "Your Majesty has a good memory."
Si Fengxuan curled his lower lip when he saw that Jin Yan's expression was calm and he seemed not to care about the matter at all.
A moment later, when Si Fengxuan was feeding Jin Yan snacks, she suddenly said "Eh".
"What's wrong?" Si Fengxuan asked.
Jin Yan hurriedly looked downstairs, where there was a crowd of people, but he could no longer see that familiar figure.
She said, "I seemed to have seen Wen Tan just now."
Si Fengxuan's eyes moved slightly, "Wen Tan?"
Jin Yan: "Maybe I'm wrong. Wen Tan has been exiled and there's no way he could appear here unless..."
"Yunzhu, go check it out right away."
After giving instructions, Si Fengxuan comforted Jin Yan, "Don't worry yet. If it's really Wen Tan, then there must be some conspiracy behind his appearance here. And what he cares about most is fame. Just be careful and don't let him cause damage." Enough."
Jin Yan: "We have to be on guard and not let him ruin my brother's good deeds."
No longer interested in watching the fun, Jin Yan stood up and said, "Brother will be here soon. Let's go home to announce the good news."
Si Fengxuan stood up immediately, "Okay."
Wen family.
"Dad, mother, we are back."
"Brother, congratulations!"
As soon as Jin Yan finished speaking, the official messenger came to announce the good news.
"Congratulations, Mr. Wen, for coming first in the competition!"
Mei Huiniang happily asked the housekeeper to divide the silver reward among those who came to announce the good news, and then happily walked home with her son surrounded.
It takes many years to get a sixth grader.
Whether it is the emperor or the courtiers, for a better meaning, Wen Jinyang will also get the first place in the palace examination.
At this point, there is no longer any suspense about Wen Jinyang's fame.
After the family celebrated together, Wen Jinyang went to see Mrs. Lin, and Jinyan told Wen Lan about seeing Wen Tan on the street.
Dad's people are doing business in the capital, and they all know people from all walks of life. Let them find people together with the people from the palace, and it will get twice the result with half the effort.
