Traveling through ancient times

Chapter 297: Princess Conferred

Days like this pass quickly, and the year is over in the blink of an eye!

This year, the country of Darong has undergone earth-shaking changes!

General Qin from the Protector of the Nation General's Mansion is engaged to the granddaughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, which has become a hot topic in the streets!

In three years, the world has changed dramatically. Ariel gave birth to a big fat boy. Feng Shuhe was so happy that he lost his seriousness when he went to the court, and looked like a middle-aged uncle with a spring breeze on his face!

Emperor Longcheng was a little jealous. This old guy was the same age as himself. When he was young, he could not give birth to several children of his own due to various reasons due to the struggles between his wives and concubines. When he finally gave birth to the prince, he was already 26 or 27 years old. Therefore, he was very tolerant of his children!

I didn’t expect that just a few years after I had my grandson, this guy already had a great-grandson!

Alas, I lost at the starting line!

Because of this, he did not force the princes to take concubines. Who says that in order to have children, one must have many concubines? The most important thing is that the children survive and are healthy!

Thinking back to the past, those people who followed me became more and more greedy in order to gain more power, and in the end some died or were exiled. Although I sit at the pinnacle of supreme power, I am truly alone!

The young boy back then has now become an old man, and he is confused!

Looking at the increasingly calm Crown Prince Xue Hai, Emperor Longcheng fell into deep thought!

Feng Dalian has been in this world for three years, and today, she has reached adulthood!

Before dawn, I was woken up from bed by Yuzhu and Dahan, one was combing her hair and the other was tidying up her clothes!

After eating some snacks and putting on makeup, she wore a fine satin sleeveless vest with a nipped waist, and a translucent gauze skirt with a nude pink embroidered collar and sleeves. She was so beautiful!

She has a double fairy bun on her head, with two magnolia-shaped gold hairpins pinned on her hair. Although the hanging comb is small, it can be seen that it is made of two teardrop shapes made of rare golden coral. It is beautiful yet low-key and luxurious!

The little earlobes also have pendants of the same color hanging on them!

The wrist is still strung with eighteen beads of corals of various colors, sparkling brightly under the veil!

On her feet she wore soft-soled deerskin boots embroidered with cloud patterns, each with a large Dong pearl hanging from its end!

When Gu Dalian walked out of the inner room, the guests all opened their eyes wide and exclaimed in admiration!

"This girl should only exist in heaven, how can she come down to earth for a few days?"

"Princess Hua'an is truly stunningly beautiful, even more beautiful than her grandmother back then."

……

Qin Mo was greeting the guests. The moment he saw Sister Dalian, there was only this fairy in his eyes, and the surroundings became silent!

Feng Dalian saw Qin Mo staring at her blankly at the first moment and couldn't help but smile. Suddenly, Qin Mo felt that everything was blooming and everything was new!

He stroked his wildly beating heart. At this moment, he just wanted to hide the beauty of the woman and admire it alone!

Today's sponsor is another close friend of Feng Qinglan who has a complete family. Come forward and take a seat on the west steps!

The Lady of Hua'an walked out to the center of the venue, facing south, and bowed to the guests. Then she knelt on the mat for the bride facing west. The groom combed her hair and put the comb on the south side of the mat.

During the entire coming-of-age ceremony, Feng Dalian changed her clothes three times, and each time she added a hairpin, she would change the corresponding clothes!

After the ceremony, they returned to the inner room. Even though Feng Dalian was a master of martial arts, he was so tired that he didn't even want to lift his arms!

In the palace, Emperor Longcheng and the Second Prince and his wife each prepared a gift for their marriage and had it sent over!

One is the title of princess, the other is a set of precious headwear!

The Longcheng Emperor's conferment edict reads:

"The Feng family has a daughter, Hua'an County Lady Dalian, who is prudent, diligent, gentle, peaceful, kind, and well-behaved. She is a good wife and a wise woman. From today on, she will be named Anguo County Lady. Because of her outstanding talent and her deep favor, I will grant her Shannan County as her fief. This announcement will be made to the whole country and abroad so that everyone will know."

A coming-of-age ceremony turned into a banquet to confer an official title, making Feng Dalian the center of attention once again!

Qin Mo felt miserable, looking at the talented young men who were lurking around his sister Dalian like wolves, and he wished he could marry them right away!

Feng Wenzhi walked over and touched his shoulder:

"How is it? Are you under a lot of pressure? ... Actually, you are already pretty good now. Who is an 18-year-old fourth-rank general? Those people are far behind! Aren't you going to take the imperial examination next year as well?"

Qin Mo nodded: "I have to prove that I am not just a warrior. Only a man of both civil and military talents can be worthy of Sister Dalian!"

"I hope you can continue to be the first and strive for a top three prize!"

Feng Wenzhi glanced at him but didn't laugh at him!

Now the Prime Minister's Mansion is at its peak, my eldest brother is already the commander of the Imperial Guards, my younger sister has been promoted to a princess, and even my youngest sister is known as a little miracle doctor. If I win the top three prizes again, the Prime Minister's Mansion will be in great trouble, which may not be a good thing!

Gibran is eight years old this year, and his voice has become a little hoarse from childish. In a few days, he will enter the Imperial Academy as the youngest student. I heard from my grandfather that this is the highest institution of learning in the Kingdom of Dayong, and it will be of great help to his future career!

In February of the 38th year of Emperor Longcheng's reign, the triennial imperial examination began. Qin Mo and Feng Wenzhi both participated in this examination!

The joint examination is the fourth level of the imperial examination. It is held by the Ministry of Rites in the capital every three years. Candidates who participate in the joint examination must be Gongshi who have passed the academy examination. The contents of the joint examination mainly include classics, policy essays, poems and fu, etc. After the examination, the chief examiner will review the papers, and those who pass the examination will be called Jinshi.

This imperial examination also tests one's willpower. There are three tests in total, each lasting three days. After the test is completed, those who are physically weak may faint and be carried out of the examination room. What a pity!

The announcement of the results would take a month, which made the candidates from all provinces full of expectations. As many candidates were waiting for the announcement of the results, some teahouses in the capital city held more literary gatherings, and Qin Mo and Feng Wenzhi were invited by their friends and became regular customers!

Soon, the reputation of the two spread among the people, and Feng Wenzhi realized it was too late!

When Chief Hu's daughter came to Beijing, she always disguised herself as a man and followed Feng Wenzhi, which made everyone in the Feng family realize something was wrong!

Principal Hu is a clear stream in Darong. He has students all over the world, but he never takes the initiative to contact them!

When Myolie Wu was studying in Shannan Academy disguised as a man, she loved to stick to Wenzhi. Now, she has grown taller and more mature. It is said that matchmakers are coming to propose marriages to her, but Myolie Wu doesn't like any of them. She got anxious and ran away to the capital overnight to join her brother Hu Shiwei!

Hu Shiwei passed the exam together with Feng Wenzhi. Although his ranking was not as good as his, he was still in the top ten. His strength should not be underestimated!

Feng Dalian counted on her fingers and chuckled. Her second brother was already seventeen years old. According to the customs of that era, it was time for him to get married and start a family!

So, Myolie Wu now has a military advisor by her side to give her advice and suggestions, and as long as Feng Wenzhi is settled, they can have their wedding night!
