Today, the results of the imperial examinations in Daxia are released, the weather is good, the sky is clear in the imperial capital, and the warm sun is high!
The sunshine warms the Imperial Capital of Great Xia, slowly melting the snow on the streets into "little streams", washing the streets of the Imperial Capital clean, and making the ground of the Imperial Capital look brand new!
At this time, the Miss Guo family was sitting in the sedan chair, and the bearers carried her eagerly to the Royal Academy.
There are more and more people on the road, and it’s very lively!
She quietly opened the sedan curtain and looked at the crowds of people outside and the bustle on the road. She felt that these were less like watching the excitement, and more like soldiers rushing into battle!
Among the crowds, there were rich ladies like her sitting in sedans and carriages. They were looking at the crowds with wide eyes and rushed towards the academy under the protection of the servants!
Of course, countless candidates rushed to the Royal Academy with nervous faces!
As a result, Miss Guo couldn't help but glance at those candidates. The candidates with handsome faces would look at them for a longer time, while the candidates with ordinary looks would not look at them and she would lose interest after just one glance!
suddenly.
"Why......"
She frowned and sighed quietly!
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
The maid next to her asked her with concern: "Today is the big day to catch your son-in-law. Why are you sighing?"
Seeing the flow of people outside the sedan, Miss Guo said with emotion: "Miss, I looked all the way and found that candidates who are poorly dressed are often thick-bodied and old-looking, and they are unsightly!"
"But those candidates in bright clothes look light-footed and pale, as if they have been drunk too much. They look like playboys at first glance!"
"How can I choose such a person, Miss?"
Maid: "..."
Miss Guo asked: "Have you read the storybooks written by His Royal Highness, right?"
"Look!"
"In the storybook, those poor scholars are poor but have great ambitions. They also look like jade trees in the wind, and they are romantic and talented people, right?"
"right!"
"In the storybook, the young masters from wealthy and aristocratic families are also extremely handsome and dedicated in their relationships, right?"
"right!"
Miss Guo was very sad, pointed to the outside of the sedan and said, "But look at the candidates outside, how come they look different from the scholars in the story books?"
"Kekeke..."
The pretty maid couldn't help but chuckle: "Miss, the story is originally fictional!"
"His Royal Highness the Prince is inherently handsome. In his novels, the protagonist is handsome, ambitious, devoted, and a woman's dream lover!"
"But there is only one His Royal Highness in the world!"
"Right!"
Miss Guo lifted the veil, revealing a charming and pretty face, with skin like jade that could be broken by a blow. With the blessing of youthful breath, the maid's apricot eyes flashed with brilliance: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that a woman's eighteenth transformation is She is becoming more and more beautiful. The young lady has just turned sixteen and is getting more and more beautiful. She will be better when she turns eighteen!"
"Yeah?"
Miss Guo stretched out her jade hand to caress her pretty face: "Am I really getting more and more beautiful as I grow?"
"yes!"
"When the young lady gets out of the sedan chair, she will definitely be able to compete with those famous ladies, and she will definitely shock the candidates!"
Cai'er's eyes were full of lust: "If Miss catches a good man later on the list, he will become a good story in the imperial capital and will be praised by others, maybe..."
"Maybe what?"
"Maybe... it will be written into storybooks and passed down through the ages!"
Miss Guo, who was in her 28s, had a blushing face and bright eyes. She didn't know what she thought of. She twisted her small waist slightly, her breasts that had begun to take shape trembled slightly, and she bit her red lips lightly: "Can you let me go to a girl's house?" Catching my son-in-law... I'm still a little scared in my heart!"
"Are you shy?"
Cai'er knows her young lady well: "Miss, there is no need to be shy. In fact, catching a son-in-law under the banner has been around since ancient times!"
"Yeah?"
"yes!"
"In the past, the imperial court selected officials based on filial piety and integrity. Every autumn, the recommended people would come to the Ministry of Civil Affairs for interviews, and then the list of new officials would be reported to His Majesty the Emperor. After receiving His Majesty's approval, the list of new officials in the imperial court would be announced. The list will be posted in front of the staff department!"
"Every time that day comes, the wealthy families and noble families in the imperial capital will send people to guard the list of new officials, and capture the favorite officials to be their uncles!"
"Especially new officials from other places are the focus of every family's pursuit of their son-in-law!"
"Why does the son-in-law attach more importance to new officials from other places?"
In the past, the Miss Guo family knew a little about "catching a son-in-law under the official list", but she didn't know as much as the maid Cai'er.
Cai'er patiently explained: "Because here in the imperial capital, we pay attention to the importance of matching families. Those new officials who come from high-profile families and relatives of the emperor look down on small families like ours. Therefore, ordinary families don't dare to rob them." these people!"
"But new officials from other places are different!"
"As long as the young lady marries him, the new official's place in the imperial capital will be in our Guo Mansion. As long as our Guo family takes more care of my uncle, as long as my uncle's heart is not made of stone, he will be good to the Guo family and will be in the official position." Taking care of the Guo family will make the Guo family more and more prosperous!"
"I see!"
Miss Guo is not only beautiful, but also smart. She knows a few things: "Cai'er, you are my personal maid. If I find a husband this time, Miss, you will also be my maid, and you will also serve me today." You have to help the young lady keep an eye on it, and if you see a new official you like, we will take it back to the Guo family!"
"good!"
Cai'er was also a little shy: "Miss, Cai'er heard from the master... If it weren't for the rebellion of the wealthy families in the imperial capital this year, and if it weren't for the wealthy families who oppressed the common people and were killed by the prince, our Guo family wouldn't be qualified. I'm trying to catch my son-in-law!"
"This is a rare opportunity, Miss Cai'er will help you watch!"
"good!"
"Today we must capture a good man and bring him back!"
at the same time.
Xia Tian took the Second Prince, the Third Prince, and the Fifth Prince, put on make-up and plain clothes, walked out of the side door of the Royal Academy, and followed the crowd to the bottom of the list!
"Ninth brother, it's Jia Ren and Jia Yi!"
The third prince pointed not far away: "They are here to see the list!"
At this time.
not far away.
I saw that Su Qi and Jia Yi were still disguised as men.
Su Qi has a heroic appearance, her back is as straight as a sword, and her temperament is outstanding. She is very conspicuous as she stands in front.
Next to him, Jia Yi, who is disguised as a man, is unparalleledly handsome, with big bright eyes, which attracts the attention of women!
Only some candidates knew that the two were daughters, but most of those who came to "catch a son-in-law under the rankings" didn't know!
"bingo!"
Jia Yi saw the first name on the list on his fingernails, and his face was filled with surprise: "Su Qi, from Huangzhou, congratulations to Brother Su for being number one on the list!"
Su Qi smiled calmly and pointed at the third one on the A list: "Jia Yi, the third one on the A list!"
"congratulations!"
"Jia Ren, you are tenth on the A list!"
"Congratulations, brothers!"
At this time.
I saw a flash in Jia Yi's eyes. He looked at No. 4 on the A list and looked to the side with a half-smile: "Zhang Bo, you lost!"
"I am third on the list, and you are fourth on the list!"
"You lost the bet!"
Zhang Bo's face turned red and he hesitated to speak!
But nothing can be said!
Meanwhile, not far away.
A small sedan stopped. Miss Guo looked at Jia Yi's pretty face, her eyes brightened, her little face flushed, and she stretched out her hand and said, "Just catch him..."
