"Second brother, you write it first, and I'll help you take it to daddy!"
Ask professional people for professional matters. Even Suisui can't understand it, so naturally he can't tell the difference between good and bad.
Lian Fangyu had just sat down and had a sip of hot tea, and was about to ask his servants to supervise the two candidates at home, when he heard from his servants that Lian Suisui came to him with Lian Jiaying's papers.
"Dad, my second brother has been dictating since he came home from the examination room. Please help me first!"
Lian Fangyu's voice was filled with surprise.
"Bring it here quickly!"
The candle shadow was beating, and Lian Fangyu watched it carefully. Infected by the tense atmosphere, Lian Suisui felt a little uneasy.
With a snap, Lian Fangyu slapped the table and stood up suddenly, so frightened that Lian Suisui almost jumped out of his chair.
"Okay, okay! Okay!"
Lianfang Island looked happy.
"Tell your second brother to write out all the papers silently. I will take him to see Mr. Si tomorrow!"
Mr. Si... is the Imperial Master Si Yan?
Lian Suisui was happy for Lian Jiaying. He heard that Emperor Chen intended to let Si Lao be the examiner this year, but Chen Yongchuan also ended up this year. The two families had arranged a marriage. In order to avoid suspicion, he took the initiative to resign as the examiner.
I don’t know how Chen’s cousin did in the exam.
Lian Jiaying took reassurance and stayed up late to write the article silently, while Lian Jialiang was still sleeping.
When I got up the next morning, I heard that Lian Fangyu was taking Lian Jiaying out.
"Dad took his second brother out, why didn't you call me?"
"Why didn't anyone come and notify me?"
In the past, his father always took him out no matter what happened. When did he take his second brother with him?
The boy hesitated.
"I heard from the maid in Aunt Ma's courtyard this morning that the second young master silently wrote an article overnight and sent it to the master's study. The master took the second master out to visit Mr. Si today. You don't have an article, and I don't dare to call you..."
"Go away, you useless thing!"
When he heard that Lian Fangyu actually took Lian Jiaying to visit Mr. Si, he panicked.
"What's causing such a big fuss?"
Mrs. Zhang came in with chicken soup, "Thank you for your hard work, young master. Let's drink a bowl of chicken soup to replenish your body."
"Dad has already taken his second brother out to visit Mr. Si, why should I drink chicken soup!"
Lian Jialiang lost his temper.
Mrs. Zhang was stunned.
"Didn't you write an article silently when you came back last night?"
Mrs. Zhang also wanted to come over and remind him last night, but she was afraid of disturbing his rest. She thought that it would be okay if she was late for a day. Her son had been very good at studying since he was a child, and the family would have to rely on him to support him in the future.
"without."
"It's okay. After drinking the chicken soup, it won't be a waste to go write silently. Once your father reads your article, he might take you out to visit Mr. Si!"
Lian Jialiang was not comforted. Instead, he felt that the Zhang family was a woman and didn't understand anything. Mr. Si was an imperial teacher and had been an examiner for many years. The articles that could be sent to him must be the best.
He didn't expect that Lian Jiaying, who was inferior to him in every aspect, could be so valued by his father!
Mrs. Zhang put down the chicken soup, directed her servants to spread paper, grind ink, and prepare pens and paper.
"You write it first, and I'll copy it for you again. Let Jing'er follow the prince's path and ask someone to read it for you!"
Zhang comes from a scholarly family and has studied and read with her father since she was a child. This is what she is most proud of.
Lian Jialiang drank the chicken soup slowly and sat down at his desk to write silently.
Most of the day passed in a flash, and Lian Fangyu and Lian Jiaying still hadn't come back, and Lian Jialiang became increasingly unable to sit still.
"Auntie, I think I didn't perform well this time. Look at the article I wrote. What if I can't compare to my second brother?"
"No, I think your writing is quite good. Don't be discouraged. Just write it down first. Your father will be back soon!"
It took the mother and son a day to roughly write down the article, and sent one copy to the study room in the front yard, and the other to Prince Cheng's Mansion.
Xia Jing'er received the article from Zhang.
"Go back and tell your aunt that when the prince comes back, I will go to him for help."
After sending away the people sent by Zhang, Xia Jing'er threw the article aside with disdain.
"When she needs me, I am her good niece. When she doesn't, she doesn't even bother to talk to me!"
When she lost her first child, she went back to Lian's house with someone. Her aunt was afraid that she would ask for money and drove Tonghua away, but Lian Suisui helped.
"Auntie, after all, you are backed by the Lian family. Helping the eldest son is also helping yourself."
Niyun picked up the articles and organized them.
"If the eldest master becomes successful, your face will be bright, but it is just a matter of running errands. If you are afraid of upsetting the prince, I will help you go there!"
Xia Jing'er looked at her warily.
"You want to climb into the prince's bed and step on me to be your aunt?"
It was getting dark at this time, and she didn't dare to send a beautiful maid to Cheng Wang's study.
"I don't dare!" Ni Yun knelt on the ground, "I really care about my aunt. I have absolutely no thoughts about the prince. I just hope that my aunt will get better and better, so that I can get married in a glorious future!"
"Auntie, you have forgotten that before I entered the house, my family had arranged a marriage. I just want to make money to redeem myself and go home to get married to my lover!"
Seeing her sincerity, Xia Jing'er's expression softened.
"Okay, then you can make a trip. It's best if the prince agrees. If you don't agree, aunt can't blame me."
Niyun took the article and arrived at the front yard smoothly. King Cheng had just returned to the house and was discussing matters with his subordinate officials in the study.
"Do you think the hasty closure of the case in Dali Temple was my father's intention or was it Du Hanyin's fault?"
Yao Shangshu had been honest and upright all his life, but King Yun looted a large amount of property from Shangshu's mansion and directly convicted Yao Shangshu.
"This matter is irrational in every aspect, but no one in the court or government questions it!"
King Cheng could not figure out why Yao Shangshu, who had always refused to plead guilty, suddenly confessed. Yishantang was burned down. Who were the people related to Yishantang?
Where are the children at Yishantang?
Who has the power to make all those children disappear overnight?
"My lord, I think this may be the emperor's intention..."
Yishantang was founded by the current emperor when he was still a prince. Now that there is a problem, Emperor Chen can't save his face, so it is reasonable for him not to make it public.
It would be best if the case could be settled like this. Yao Shangshu himself admitted it. He was willing to take the blame. It would be best if everyone could share the responsibility!
"Let's just forget about this case, Your Majesty. The Emperor did not order the withdrawal of your mission, and we have also benefited from it..."
"Who's out there!"
Niyun hurriedly took half a step back, bowed her head and stood outside the door and replied politely: "In response to the prince, I am the maid next to Aunt Xia. Auntie has something to ask the prince for help."
The door of the study room opened from the inside, and King Cheng asked with a cold face: "We'll talk about it later."
He caught a glimpse of what she was holding and said, "Pass it over."
Niyun calmly observed the people in the study, put the article on Cheng Wang's desk, respectfully exited, and closed the door with his hand.
So, who is targeting Yishantang?
Niyun murmured in his heart, there was no evidence from the court, could it be that those people from Yishantang really evaporated out of thin air?
After completing the task assigned by Xia Jing'er, she did not immediately go back to resume her duties. She quietly went to the back door and stuffed a piece of silver into the nanny in charge.
"Mommy, my sweetheart comes to see me. I'll just say a word to him at the door and come back. Please be accommodating!"
