Chapter 455： Haven't had a chance to congratulate my brother yet

  Chapter 455 I haven’t had a chance to congratulate my elder brother yet

   "No, I won't join in the fun."

   Wei Ruo used his toes to think and knew what kind of lively situation it would be outside.

  At this moment, everyone must be congratulating Wei Yichen, so she still didn't go.

  After thinking for a while, Wei Ruo said again: "Meimei, you can go outside to inquire again to see if Zhao Hai's younger brother has passed the exam."

   "Okay, I'll go right away."

  Xiumei went out after receiving Wei Ruo's order, and brought back good news half an hour later.

   "The second son of the Zhao family also won, but the ranking is very low, second to last." Xiumei said.

   "It doesn't matter his physical condition if he wins, it's not easy to take the test smoothly, and it's a great joy to be on the list." Wei Ruo said.

  Zhao Xun's high school was beyond Wei Ruo's expectation. Not only did the sick person recover his life, but he was able to achieve such accomplishments after recovering from a serious illness, which is really rare.

   "In addition, Mr. Xu's family also won, and the ranking is quite high. I counted and ranked 20th." Xiumei added.

   "Well. The final result has to wait until the palace test is over, let's see." Wei Ruo said.

  After the palace examination, there will be some changes in the final ranking. In the end, the top three will be the champion, the second place, and the third flower, which are called "Jinshi Jidi";

  Those who pass the Jinshi examination will be granted official positions at the first level, while the second and third levels will take the Imperial Academy examination and study for three years before being awarded official positions.

  Besides Wei Ruo, there is another person in the mansion who, like Wei Ruo, did not go to the front yard to congratulate Wei Yichen.

  It's not that Wei Qingwan didn't want to go, but she didn't dare to go.

  Wei Yichen high school Huiyuan, no accident, his ranking after the palace examination will not be bad.

  Even if they are not No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3, they should be able to enter the second class, and they can make a difference in the future.

  And the brighter Wei Yichen's future looks, the more worried Wei Qingwan is.

  She sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, with sadness and loneliness in her eyes.

   "Miss, don't worry, the matter has passed for so long, the young master may have calmed down." Cui He comforted.

  Wei Qingwan's voice was low: "How do you know that he has let go... I'm afraid that not only did he not let go, but he also harbors resentment towards me..."

   "Miss, don't say such frustrating words. After all, you and the eldest young master have had a relationship for more than ten years. This relationship can't be gone if you don't have it."

   "He is not my real brother after all, and he will not tolerate me like before." Wei Qingwan said.

"But miss, the people outside don't know that the young master and you are not direct siblings. As long as the young master doesn't do anything wrong, the young master will be your reliance and reliance, and you will have a smoother time in Prince Yu's mansion in the future." Cui Cui He reminded cautiously.

  After a woman gets married, the power and status of her mother's family is very important. If her mother's family is strong, her husband's family will naturally think highly of her.

   "How can I not know? You don't have to say any more, I have my own idea."

  Wei Qingwan was very bored at the moment, whether it was the words of the maid Cui He, or the sound of firecrackers and drums outside, all disturbed her.

  ###

  The first day of April.

  The emperor issued a decree to confer the title of Prince Rui to the Ninth Prince, and bestowed the residence at the end of Zhuque Street, which is very close to the imperial city, making it convenient to enter and leave the imperial city.

  The canonization ceremony was even more grand than the sixth and seventh princes who were just canonized last year, which once again proved that the emperor's love for the ninth prince Chu Yi is extraordinary.

   It's a pity that his body is weak and has been declared by the imperial doctor to have a long life, so he can't participate in the fight for the crown prince, and can't shake the status of other princes. No matter how great the emperor's love for him is, it will only last for a while, and it won't last long.

  ###

   Palace examination on April 11th.

  Wei Yichen was handpicked by the emperor as the number one scholar; Xu Fengyuan entered the second class and was "born as a Jinshi";

  Although everyone knew that Wei Yichen's grades were not much worse when he was in high school.

  But when it was announced that Wei Yichen became the champion of the new division, the Wei family was still very excited, and the old man Wei was so happy that he almost fainted on the spot.

  In the next few days, the mansion was bustling with people, and many people who hadn't been around Zhongyibo's mansion for many years also came to the mansion to express their congratulations.

  Even going out with the people in the mansion also has face.

  It is much easier for Wei Mingyong to go out and negotiate business with people, and the treatment is almost completely different.

  Bai Shi was invited by many wives of Quanhao to participate in various banquets and gatherings.

  A few days ago, because two girls in the mansion were about to marry into the royal family, the Bai family began to deal with the wives of various aristocratic families.

  But at that time, those rich and powerful wives always looked down on their Zhongyi uncle's mansion.

  Now Bai Shi is completely elated. There is a nephew who is the number one scholar, and Bai Shi feels that his waist is straight and straight.

  On the contrary, Mo Shi, who is the wife of the eldest son of Zhongyi Bofu, and Yun Shi, Wei Yichen's mother-in-law, behaved relatively low-key at this time.

   Mo's temperament is calm, and she has always acted in a low-key manner. In the past, she was like this when Zhongyi Bofu was not popular in the capital, and it is no different now that she is the new favorite.

  Yun's family is worried that acting high-profile on this matter will cause trouble. She knows that although the Zhongyi House has risen, its foundation is still unstable, so don't get complacent.

  ###

   After waiting for half a month, the climax gradually faded away, and Wei Yichen also got a little leisure.

   Wei Yichen just came back from outside, passed the garden, and was about to walk to his residence.

   "Brother."

  Hearing the sound, Wei Yichen stopped.

   Seeing Wei Yichen waiting for her, Wei Qingwan felt slightly happy, and then walked forward quickly.

   "Big Brother, Big Brother is in high school, my sister hasn't had a chance to congratulate Big Brother yet." Saying that, Wei Qingwan handed the food box in front of Wei Yichen.

Wei Yichen didn't reach out, Wei Qingwan opened the food box and said, "Brother, I picked the sweet-scented osmanthus flowers used in these osmanthus cakes during your country test last autumn. In the past, my elder brother liked this cake made by my sister the most. I don't know if my elder brother would like it." I would like to try my sister's craft again..."

  Wei Qingwan's voice was soft, and after speaking, she lowered her head, then slowly raised it up, looking at Wei Yichen with eyes full of anticipation and caution.

  Wei Qingwan felt uneasy in her heart. What she brought to Wei Yichen was not only sweet-scented osmanthus cake, but also the good memories of the two people related to it.

  Brother used to love himself so much, and also loved the cakes she made with his own hands. When she gave him the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, he praised her endlessly.

  He also said that if he is a high school in the future, if she wants her to reward him with the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she made herself, it must be made of osmanthus flavored osmanthus honey she picked.

   Now that she has done what she promised him, I wonder if she can arouse some of his brother-sister friendship towards her.
