Shen Li didn't even look at Shen Yiran and hurried over.

Shen Yiran glanced coldly and walked out of the Shen family.

After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Shen Yiran did not make it public, but soon the entire mansion knew about it.

Rong Qingqing arrived at Wuyayuan with legs almost pounding.

"Oh, I heard that my sister was punished by my father when she returned to her parents' home. I have some excellent medicine for wounds."

"Oh my, are you really that harsh?"

Shen Yiran didn't say anything, but the news spread so quickly. It should be Shen Liang who ordered it to be spread.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. I have applied medicine on my face."

Rong Qingqing held back her smile and pretended to feel distressed as she said, "Parents in this world can be really cruel sometimes. My sister's beautiful face has been destroyed. I'm sure the Marquis will be very sad to see this, right?"

Shen Yiran said calmly: "Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law."

Rong Qingqing felt like she had met a wooden man, it was boring, so she walked away with a pout.

Xu also sent Qiu Wen to find out the truth.

After returning, he immediately explained the situation to Xu.

"Half of your face is swollen? Maybe all your teeth were knocked out?"

Qiu Wen looked at Xu and couldn't help but said, "Miss, why are you so happy?"

Xu glared at Qiu Wen with murderous intent in her eyes: "I wish she would die, what does this mean?"

Qiu Wen looked at Xu, feeling a little scared. She was silent for a while before saying, "Miss, you should go to bed early."

Xu had a ferocious look on her face. When she thought about the fact that she had failed to kill Shen Yiran several times before, she cursed him fiercely a few times.

Qiu Wen didn't dare to say anything and could only serve silently.

Shen Yiran looked at himself in the mirror and calmly instructed Bai Zhi, "Get my hat with a veil ready. I may have to wear it for a while."

Bai Zhi felt wronged and cried, "How could the master be so harsh! Are you really not going to find a doctor?"

"Not looking for it."

If a doctor was consulted, it would make it clear that Shen Liang had acted ruthlessly.

Bo Jinnian spent the whole night checking and looked through all the information of the candidates.

But I still have no clue.

Among the candidates taking the exam this time, there were many from prominent families, generals' families, and some young men born in humble families who had some fame, but none of them stood out particularly.

The next day, Bo Jinjue arrived at the government office. Bo Jinnian had already packed up the candidates' information. He also saw that the Minister of War Qi Kai had also come, so he went out to greet him.

The three of them reported the matter together in the room. After they finished reporting, Bo Jinnian deliberately brought the topic to the candidates.

"I took a quick look at the candidates' list. There are quite a few talented people this time. I really can't tell who will stand out and win the helmet!"

Qi Kai stroked his beard and smiled, "Yes, every year there are people speculating and even gambling in secret!"

Bo Jinnian immediately pushed the topic forward and said with a smile, "Then I wonder who the Shangshu-sama values?"

Qi Kai thought for a moment and said, "It's very cliché. I think it's still General Hong's son. His son has always been by his side to train. Not only did he learn Kung Fu, he also went to the battlefield and practiced it himself."

Bo Jinnian deliberately said, "I think the famous Cui Yulang is not bad either. He practiced in Zhongnan Mountain and traveled all over the country. His perspective should be different."

Bo Jinjue sneered and said, "It's hard to say what the Marquis's vision is. The exam is not just a one-round exam. The policy essay is also a key point."

Bo Jinnian was waiting for him to speak, and immediately asked, "Who do you think is the best, second brother?"

Then he took out his purse and deliberately said, "I'm here to gamble with Brother Xing today, will you join me, Brother?"

Qi Kai immediately tried to smooth things over by saying, "Lottery is great, I'll join in too. I'll bet on General Hong's son Hong Ye, what about you?"

"Cui Yulang."

After Bo Jinnian finished speaking, he looked at Bo Jinjue. Seeing that Qi Kai had participated, Bo Jinjue said unhappily, "Then I will bet on Wang Miao, a descendant of the famous Langya clan."

Qi Kai laughed and said, "My Lord, please leave your money bag here for now. Don't move it."

As he spoke, he took out his purse and put it in the cabinet. Bo Jinjue sneered, glanced at Bo Jinnian, and put his own purse in as well.

"From my perspective, both of you are doomed to lose this time. Hong Ye is the most popular candidate!"

Bo Jinnian didn't care at all, and the three of them dispersed and continued working.

Bo Jinjue is a person who refuses to lose. Qi Kai said that everyone was sure that Hong Ye would be admitted to high school, but he did not choose him. Instead, he chose Wang Miao, who was ranked lower and not as famous as Cui Yulang.

The Langya clan has fallen into decline in the current court, having long been replaced by other noble families. Its former glory is but the white dew in the early morning, and no one would think highly of it if it were mentioned.

There is no rule that repeating is prohibited in gambling. It is just a bet on who can guess correctly, and the person who guesses correctly can share the money.

After thinking about it for a while, Bo Jinnian was still not sure, so he took a leave in the afternoon and returned home.

He told Shen Yiran about his discovery and what happened today.

But I didn't want to see Shen Yiran's red and swollen face.

"what happened?"

Shen Yiran smiled faintly: "Has the Marquis not heard about it yet? I think it has spread all over the streets and alleys, right?"

Bo Jinnian didn't notice it and only found out the reason after asking Shen Yiran.

"You just went to visit me, so you're so harsh?"

Shen Yiran could see that Bo Jinnian was very upset and worried about her, but now was not the time to talk about this.

"The reason I returned home was because you told me that my father wouldn't let us go back to visit him, so I went back on purpose."

"I didn't expect the guard at the door to stop me. If I hadn't been with Shen Li and Shen Yunyan, I wouldn't have been able to get in."

After hearing this, Bo Jinnian calmed down, sat opposite him, thought for a while and said, "Do you suspect that this matter has something to do with the Grand Tutor?"

His tone didn't sound very convincing, Shen Yiran sneered in his heart.

Shen Liang's kung fu was still very good. Even after beating her, Bo Jinnian didn't think Shen Liang was involved in the matter.

"My Lord, let's not talk about this for now. Do you know where Hong Ye is now?"

Bo Jinnian heard Shen Yiran's question and thought for a moment before saying, "It should be in my own residence, right?"

"Are Lord Hou and Lord Hong on good terms?"

"Hmm...so so so."

"Then Lord, why don't you go visit Hong Ye? If possible, arrange for some people to protect him."

Bo Jinnian was extremely surprised, but when he thought of Bo Jinjue's recommendation, he immediately frowned and said, "You mean these people behind the scenes did so many things just to make Wang Miao pass the martial arts exam?"

“Is it too complicated?”

Shen Yiran didn't know how to explain it. He knew the whole story clearly. It was Song Qizhao who was behind the operation and his methods were even more ruthless. He directly executed the entire family of the marquis.

But the situation in this life is different. Things did not develop as they did in the previous life. Even if she wanted to say something, she didn't know how to say it.

Shen Yiran could only choose his words carefully to guide Bo Jinnian.
