The wronged female supporting role made a comeback with a divine reply

"Okay, mother, stop talking nonsense. This is just an excuse. I must first gain a foothold in the capital. The title of Tanhua is just a good name. In fact, it is just a seventh-rank official. Don't always visit other people's homes. Keep a low profile."

"Well... okay! Then Yu'er, tell me how much property you have now, and I'll help you manage it."

"Oh, mother!" Cheng Jiayu looked annoyed. "I've said it before. The jade shop in Hexi County has been sold. There is only a grocery store and a farm in the capital! You can spend the money at home as you like, but you can't touch the money outside. If you really want to take care of it, just take care of the small farm outside the capital!"

"Okay, okay, I won't care about you. You are a very capable person. If you find a girl you like in the future, just tell me. I am still waiting to hold my grandson!"

"I know, mother." Cheng Jiayu paused, and then said, "Mom, if someone asked you why we didn't go back to our hometown to worship our ancestors, what would you say?"

"Don't worry, mother remembers that the tablets of your ancestors are placed in the temple for worship. You can just go and pay homage to the tablets."

"Ah."

Cheng Jiayu really didn't want to go back to Hexi Village, where almost all the people were workers from the Bai family, and many villagers knew about his past with Bai Zhaozhao, so what was the point of going back? He might as well take this opportunity to build up his network in Beijing.

Let him think about it. The remaining 500 points are just enough to redeem a filter, so he can only choose a noble lady who is easy to control.

Bai Zhaozhao is not aware of Cheng Jiayu's plan at the moment. At this time, she has already followed the Bai family back to Hexi Village to worship their ancestors.

Just as Chief Bai had expected, the Bai family held a buffet for another three days.

As a county magistrate, Bai Shiwen gained political achievements directly from his family, especially since the top scorer was his nephew!

This feels so good!

His status suddenly became much higher. At least the other county magistrates around him became more friendly to him. No one said behind his back that he was a relative of someone else. Even the fact that the children of the Bai family occupied the lucrative positions as yamen runners was no longer discussed.

In addition, Bai Shikang, the fifth-rank Tongzhi, has done a more stable job. His colleagues who used to be jealous of him now sigh that he deserves the title.

Prefect Zhong was also very satisfied. Bai Lin's title of top scholar simply exceeded his expectations!

After a month of happy fun, the Bai family set off for the capital again. The difference was that Bai Shihong also brought along a few of the Bai family's talented students.

After hearing Bai Hao's plan, Bai Shikang readily packed up Bai Hao and handed him over to Bai Zhaozhao, saying directly that they had limited energy now and could not take care of Bai Hao, so it would be nice to let him try it on his own.

Because in this month, Liu gave birth to a boy, who is Bai Hao's younger brother.

Bai Zhaozhao deeply suspected that Bai Shikang felt that his big brother had failed to become a Jinshi, so he wanted to train another small brother.

It was already mid-May when they returned to the capital, and the Bai father and son began their career as officials.

Bai Zhaozhao also received a reply from Prince An, saying that Bai Hao could be arranged to work in the Yulin Guard.

Because Bai Zhaozhao had thought about it carefully. If she could get Bai Hao into the Jinyiwei through He Anyu, wouldn't Prince An know that she had a close relationship with He Anyu?

It wouldn't be a big deal, but from what He Anyu said, there seemed to be something wrong between him and Prince An, so it's better not to do this.

So Bai Zhaozhao had previously made a request to Prince An, saying that he hoped to arrange a job as a guard for Bai Hao.

Prince An agreed readily and said that it would be done when she returned from paying homage to her ancestors.

"Yulin Guards!"

Bai Hao was unexpectedly happy when he learned about this.

I reported in the next day.

The Yulin Guard was one of the imperial guards and was directly under the emperor, but they usually did not have any important tasks. Their main task was to protect the safety of the royal family, especially the security of matters such as enthronement, banquets, and travel.

It is one of the units that noble children are very willing to join, as it is convenient for gaining experience.

Well, speaking of this, as the commander of the imperial guards, Li Rongyue is Bai Hao’s immediate superior, right?

Bai Zhaozhao didn't care. She and her "ex-husband" were not familiar with each other in this life.

Although Cheng Jiayu in the original novel said that Li Rongyue was just using the original owner to conceal her identity, in fact, Li Rongyue was just in a dormant and secluded state at that time, and the original owner's existence was purely for good fortune.

It is even possible that Li Rongyue did not live long, otherwise why did Cheng Jiayu not mention the Beiping Palace at all when she saved the Northwest Army.

Therefore, either the Beiping Palace did nothing, or it was simply unable to cope with the incident.

After a period of time, the Bai family got back on track and the enthusiasm for the imperial examination had declined in the capital. It was said that only Cheng Jiayu was very active and often attended banquets and other occasions.

With the title of Tanhua (three places in the imperial examination), he was able to get along well with people in the capital, and his good looks also attracted many noble ladies. However, he had not yet established himself and had no background, so most people were waiting and watching.

Relatively speaking, everyone is more optimistic about Bai Lin and Yan Yongcheng, but Bai Lin has already been reserved by the emperor, so he can't make any plans. Yan Yongcheng doesn't have any background on the surface, but he is a branch of the Yan family, a century-old family in Yanyun County. Now that he has won the second place, the Yan family will not ignore him.

However, Bai Lin and Yan Yongcheng were both very low-key. For the past half month, they just went to the Hanlin Academy to work in an orderly manner every day, and nothing else was spread out.

There was no way, this year's imperial examination was a good year, the top three were all unmarried talents, and it was hard to ignore them, so Cheng Jiayu did receive a lot of attention.

White House.

That day, Bai Zhaozhao was talking to a man, and Bai Hao came over with gauze covering his face.

He coughed lightly and said cautiously, "Sister, can you give me some medicinal wine for traumatic injuries?"

Bai Zhaozhao asked curiously: "Why are you still covering your face? Are you injured? Let me see."

Bai Hao refused to approach her: "It's okay, it's okay. I just accidentally fell when I was sparring with my brothers. Just get me some good medicinal wine and I'll apply it myself."

Before Bai Zhaozhao could say anything, the man next to him laughed and said, "Bai Hao, you may have a promising future. You dare to fight just after becoming a Yulin Guard. Can't you learn from Bai Lin and keep a low profile?"

Bai Hao immediately got angry: "Bai Che, you are talking without any pain in your waist. I already said this is a competition!"

Unexpectedly, when he waved his hand, the gauze wrapped on his head fell off, revealing a swollen pig-like face.

Bai Zhaozhao smiled unkindly: "After all, this is a garrison, so sparring is inevitable. After all, I am concerned about the person you are fighting with, and how he is doing."

Bai Hao snorted and said proudly, "That idiot thought I was easy to bully. He is also new here, but he didn't go to pick a fight with the kid from Guangping Marquis's family, but insisted on showing off his authority in front of me! Then I can still spoil him!"

Bai Che asked curiously, "Which official family is this person from?"
