When Liu Yueru returned to the Zhanshi Mansion in a carriage, a group of people came out in a mighty manner.

She greeted him with a smile and asked, "What was the result?"

Song Nanzhi and Song Shijin walked towards the carriage they were originally riding in with gloomy faces.

"Brother Yan won the opportunity to accompany his children to study with his own strength. The young are indeed formidable." Liu Zimo smiled brightly.

He originally planned to greet the two adults in the Imperial College and allow Yan Ge'er to enter the palace to study with him.

It was Song Yiyan who insisted on a fair competition, and after assessing him in advance, Liu Zimo took the risk and respected Song Yiyan's choice.

The result also shocked him.

Liu Yueru pretended to be surprised and asked, "Is it Brother Yan who was selected?"

Liu Zimo didn't want to show his partiality too obviously, so he could only say, "I'm afraid Jin'er has been playing around and has fallen behind in his studies recently. But Teacher He Chenan is a good teacher. If he studies hard in the future, he will definitely have a bright future."

Xie Jingrui and Xie Wenhua, one older and one younger, walked towards them.

Liu Yueru was the first to bow slightly: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Congratulations, Mrs. Song." Xie Jingrui congratulated lightly.

Liu Yueru smiled even more: "Congratulations."

She reached out her hand and couldn't help but touch Xie Wenhua's little face: "In the future, I'll have to trouble Prince Huaer to take care of Brother Yan."

Xie Wenhua straightened his chest and patted himself: "Don't worry, aunt, no one dares to bully him when I'm here."

"Then I would like to thank you, young master." Liu Yueru looked at him with smiling eyes.

"It's getting late, we should go back home." Xie Jingrui said at the right time.

This time, Xie Wenhua waved goodbye to Liu Zimo, Liu Yueru and the others obediently.

After Prince Jin left, Liu Yueru had another conversation with Liu Zimo.

"Second brother, go back earlier and tell eldest brother and father about this. I'm sure they will be very happy too." Liu Yueru lowered her voice.

"Okay." Liu Zimo glanced at where Song Nanzhi and the others were.

"Tell your second brother immediately if anything happens." He reminded her again with concern.

Liu Yueru nodded slightly before taking Song Yiyan back to the carriage.

When we arrived at the Marquis' Mansion.

Old Madam Song had been standing at the door waiting for a long time.

It was noon, but Old Madam Song didn't mind the scorching sun.

As soon as he saw their carriage coming back, he immediately asked Mother Chen to help him go forward.

Song Nanzhi and Song Shijin got off the carriage dejectedly.

Liu Yueru followed closely behind.

Old Madam Song was happy and did not immediately notice that the father and son were wrong. She stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Did Brother Jin get selected as a companion student?"

Song Shijin bit her lip and said nothing.

Yuan Qinglian saw from afar that their faces looked strange and her brows furrowed.

When Old Madam Song saw that he was silent, she was suddenly shocked: "Why don't you say anything?"

Yuan Qinglian rushed out from the corner and said, "Maybe the old lady's child is tired. Let's go in first and talk slowly inside the mansion."

Old Madam Song looked at Song Nanzhi, who was also in low spirits, and bad thoughts instantly came to her mind.

"Go back home!" Old Madam Song said, and returned to the courtyard with the help of Mother Chen.

The old lady had asked the servants to prepare snacks and good tea in advance.

"Eat something first. We are all hungry at this time." Old Madam Song reminded him, suppressing her uneasiness.

Song Nanzhi had a gloomy face and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Song Shijin had no appetite at this time, and he was obviously unhappy when he looked at Song Nanzhi.

He was thinking, if his father hadn't asked him to take the risk and give Song Yiyan the drugged candy, would he have gotten the spot?

Liu Yueru had been drinking tea in the teahouse for a long time and was not hungry. She picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to Song Yiyan: "Eat some."

Song Yiyan was in a good mood and ate the pastries quickly.

Song Nanzhi suddenly looked at Liu Yueru, somewhat angrily: "Why did you hide this from us?"

Liu Yueru was puzzled and tilted her head to look at him: "What do you mean, husband?"

"Brother Yan's academic performance is obviously..." better than Brother Jin's! Song Nanzhi couldn't say the rest.

"What's wrong with Yan'er's studies? He has always had the same teacher as Jin'er. What do you want to say, husband?" Liu Yueru stared at him with her clear eyes with an ambiguous look.

"Did Brother Yan get selected as the accompanying student?" Old Madam Song couldn't help herself and asked her guess!

Song Nanzhi nodded with some difficulty.

Old Madam Song was sitting on a high seat, and she slumped down as if she had lost all her energy.

Liu Yueru took in their every move.

In her previous life, Song Nanzhi said that she was a slut, but except for her wedding night, she had never had an affair with anyone.

From the look on Old Madam Song’s face, Liu Yueru suddenly had a terrible idea!

Her Yan Ge'er was not Song Nanzhi's son! Then who was the person who had sex with her on the wedding night?

Liu Yueru suddenly stood up, hiding the coldness in her eyes: "Although Jin'er didn't make the selection, Yan'er is also a child of our Marquis' Mansion. Shouldn't grandmother and husband be happy?"

"Why do my husband and grandmother look unhappy? Did Brother Yan do something wrong to make everyone unhappy?" Liu Yueru glanced at the expressions on their faces and continued.

Old Madam Song was also afraid that Liu Yueru would discover something, so she forced a smile and said, "Yes, no matter which child it is, it is the glory of our mansion and we are all happy. It's just that Brother Yan is not in good health, and Grandmother is quite worried."

"I'm worried that he might be unwell while accompanying me to study, and I dare not say much in a place like that, for fear that others will bully him." Old Madam Song looked worried, if she hadn't known their plan in her previous life.

I was afraid that I would really think that the old lady was feeling sorry for Yan Ge'er.

"Don't worry, grandma. Brother Yan and the young master of Prince Jin's Mansion are destined to be together, and they are also taken care of in the palace." Liu Yueru smiled brightly.

But Old Madam Song found it dazzling.

Liu Yueru remembered something and then spoke: "Everything is almost ready for the banquet. I will have the servants send out the invitations later. Grandma, how about setting the time for three days later?"

Since she didn't mention it, Old Madam Song forgot about it, and there was no hope for Song Shijin to accompany her to study.

But they can take the opportunity to seek opportunities to interact with higher-ranking officials.

Think about this.

Madam Song smiled more: "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you."

Liu Yueru bowed and agreed: "If there is nothing else, granddaughter-in-law will take Brother Yan away first."

"Go ahead." Old Madam Song happened to have something to ask Song Nanzhi, so she didn't stop her.

As soon as Liu Yueru left, Yuan Qinglian came into the hall and served Madam Song as usual.

Old Madam Song ignored it and turned to ask Song Nanzhi: "What happened? Did the second son of the Liu family contact the people of the Imperial College, so that Brother Jin was not selected?"

Song Nanzhi clearly felt that he was being played, and the anger on his face did not diminish: "Brother Yan has been hiding his strength all along!"

"Jin'er is good, but we didn't expect Yan'er to be so talented!" The more Song Nanzhi spoke, the more gloomy his face became.

The higher Song Yiyan goes, the greater the disaster will be for their Marquisate!

Yuan Qinglian took the opportunity to instigate: "It's also Madam's fault for punishing Jin'er so cruelly. If he hadn't been injured, Jin'er would definitely be fine."
