Shenhao: The little widow became the richest woman in Beijing

Zhou Minghuang held his chest, turned over the things on the table and walked away.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness." The guards took the second prince away from the palace. After all, the emperor had already issued a decree to abolish the title of King Yi and confine him in the palace.

The second prince saw that there was no change in the holy intention. When he was taken away, he glared at the third prince fiercely and spat out a few harsh words from between his teeth: "You wait for me."

I never dreamed that I would lose in this matter.

The third prince followed closely behind him and exited the door. He looked at the second prince's leaving figure with pride in his eyes. Thinking of how his father had just coughed up blood, he felt complicated. But now that he had done it, there was no room for regret.

It's just that the poison came too slowly. Fortunately, there is only half a year left, so there is hope. For the sake of the relationship between father and son, he did not take any other actions to make the wood burn out faster.

Zhou Xuanyin glanced at the two of them with a deep gaze and returned home alone.

Today, he knew what happened to the second prince, but he did not stop him. Moreover, the place where the white tiger was found was revealed to the second prince by someone he had buried next to him, and he wanted to let him know about it.

As for what happened to the third prince today, the third prince originally just wanted to kill the white tiger and interfered with the second prince's gift.

But the person who executed it may have been hinted by others and felt that the more ruthless it was, the more satisfied the third prince would be. So that's what happened in the end.

He really didn't do anything.

I just expected that the second prince would go to great lengths to get the white tiger to use it as an auspicious gift on his father's birthday.

It was just expected, and the third prince knew that he would not let it happen.

Oh, by the way, the person who hinted at the execution was the person he placed at the Third Prince's place...

Time flies slowly, in the spring of March,

Lu Wenxiu also came to the capital to participate in the imperial examination. At this moment, he was facing Xue Qing at the entrance of the examination room: "Don't worry, maybe you will do better than me. There are not many people with your talent, and there are people who are talented and work as hard as you." It’s even rarer.”

I have never seen anyone like him. He memorizes a few books every day for a year and relearns the things he doesn't understand one by one. He arranges his time to the fullest. He has studied hard for many years. Before, he could give him some guidance in Huocheng. Two, but now his knowledge may not be inferior to his own.

This talent and hard work are really enviable. People who are more talented than me work harder than me. It really makes me ashamed.

Xue Qing was silent. He was worried because he knew that he was not capable of getting the top prize in the examination. I wonder if she will be disappointed.

The spring rain continues, and the day when the list is released coincides with the rainy season.

Bai Xueru and Xue Qing came in a carriage together. Xue Qing went to see the list. Bai Xueru got out of the carriage with an umbrella and looked at the crowded place. Everyone in front of the list had a worried look on their faces. Some were crazy and happy, and some were crying. Shedding tears, some people left sadly,

Not long after, Xue Qing came back, his face silent.

"Missed?" Bai Xueru asked. It didn't matter if he missed. No matter how talented he was, he could break one day into ten. He also started later than others, so it was normal to fail the exam.

"I won, but it's a bit low, second and sixteenth place." Xue Qing pursed her thin lips slightly.

Bai Xueru's eyes were surprised, a smile broke out on her face, and she praised: "Not bad."

This result was really beyond my expectation. It was already rare to be on the list. I also thought that he might just gain experience this time. It seemed that I had underestimated him.

Xue Qing looked at the smile in Bai Xueru's eyes, and a smile appeared on his resolute face, but he still couldn't help feeling regretful. If he wasn't in a hurry, maybe next time, he would be the number one scholar. Make her happier.

Over there, Lu Wenxiu saw Xue Qing's figure after reading the list, and shouted "Xue Qing" in a loud voice, unable to conceal his joy.

Xue Qing looked sideways, and Lu Wenxiu saw the woman next to Xue Qing slightly stunned. Is she actually the person with him?

Yes, when he was in the hospital before, he saw that the two of them had some kind of relationship. Lu Wenxiu hurriedly stepped forward and thanked Bai Xueru and saluted.

I benefited a lot from the collection of books in her courtyard. The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring of water, not to mention that she is a great kindness to myself.

Now, my father finally doesn't have to suffer. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't be here at this moment and pass the exam.

I originally thought about going to thank her after I won the lottery, but I never wanted to meet her here.

There was a lot of respect on his face, "You are the master of the family."

Since he had promised to repay the debt with his own life, even if he passed the imperial examination, he would still be hers. What he owed her was not just a sum of money.

If it weren't for her, I would probably still be as sickly and frail as ever, and it's not certain whether I would be alive today.

Bai Xueru nodded lightly, "How did you do in the exam?"

Although he allowed him to go to the institute to teach civilians, he did not restrict him from working there and not leaving. He was allowed to take the imperial examination. After all, he only gave some money and did not really want to buy it out. In his lifetime, it would be a good thing for his hospital to have people on the list.

"Awarded seventh in the second-level exam." Lu Wenxiu replied to Bai Xueru's words.

"Congratulations, you don't have to go back to the institute to teach in the future."

Lu Wenxiu was silent. He had not paid off the money he owed her. Even if the money was paid off in the future, the debt would still be unclear. "If I am no longer in the imperial court one day, can I go back and continue teaching in the future?"

Bai Xueru's eyes were slightly surprised and she agreed casually, "Of course."

But I never thought that when he was no longer an official in the court, he would actually return to the institute and spend the rest of his life teaching and educating people.

After saying a few words to him, Bai Xueru returned to the house and let Xue Qing celebrate with him.

It is worth mentioning that when Bai Xueru returned, she saw this year's top performer in the carriage. There was so much noise outside the carriage that Bai Xueru couldn't help but open the curtains and look.

Only then did he realize that the person at the top of the list was actually someone he knew. What a coincidence. Thinking of that person, Bai Xueru couldn't help but curl her lips slightly.

That stupid and nosy young man is actually a student of this class. This is really surprising. That man is really talented. Recalling the debate, Bai Xueru smiled slightly. Maybe there are more people in the court. A good official who makes decisions for the people.

His temperament may be difficult to develop under the current emperor and the second and third princes. But if the person in power is Zhou Xuanyin, such a person will definitely be given a chance. Zhou Xuanyin will not be a benevolent king, but he must be a wise king.

From the fact that he prevented Emperor Zhou Ming from raising taxes and the fact that he secretly thanked him for what he had done for the people, we can see that he was a person who cared for the people.

Chu Fanyi faintly noticed that there were eyes looking at him from behind. When he looked sideways, he saw only the carriage driving away, and he didn't know who was sitting inside.

He turned around and continued chatting with his classmates, heading in the other direction, but for some reason, he felt an inexplicable regret in his heart.

Some people have always had a weak relationship...

"Host, the two of them have risen to half a star."

Bai Xueru nodded lightly, knowing that the two people Xiaotuanzi was talking about were Lu Wenxiu and the nosy and stupid young master. The half-star promotion they gained was due to their improved abilities.
