Rebirth of the Beautiful Repaying Gratitude: Quick Transmigration and Childbirth System

East Palace.

Crown Prince Ling Mochen, wearing a brocade robe embroidered with cloud and dragon patterns, stood in front of the desk.

He was holding a bone-carved feather pen and outlining the contours of mountains and rivers on rice paper. His movements were graceful, but his eyes revealed a barely perceptible worry.

At this moment, there was a sound of brisk footsteps outside the door, and then the door of the study was gently pushed open.

The prince looked up.

Ye Lingxiao was seen walking in wearing a tight suit, with steady steps and a straight face.

"My cousin is really elegant."

Seeing the prince painting, he naturally walked to the tea table, picked up the teapot, and skillfully filled two cups of tea.

The posture is casual yet graceful.

Prince Ling Mochen put down the pen in his hand.

Walk over, sit down, pick up the teacup and drink tea leisurely with him.

"It's been a long time since you last came to the palace. Why did you suddenly come to the palace to visit Father and Grandmother today?"

He took a sip and then put the teacup down, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.

"I came to pay my respects to my grandmother, and to discuss the matter of the number one scholar with my uncle the emperor."

Ye Lingxiao also took a sip and said calmly.

The prince raised his eyebrows and couldn't help laughing.

"Cousin, with your knowledge and talent, do you still need to use the back door? Have you lost confidence in yourself?"

Ye Lingxiao shook his head and smiled, "Just in case. I'm afraid my uncle is being modest to his family, so he picked me a third place winner. Getting married is a big deal, I dare not be careless."

After saying this, he picked up the teapot and filled the prince's cup with a smug look on his face.

"Are you no longer concerned about the child?" A hint of teasing flashed in the prince's eyes.

"Don't worry about it. I don't have a throne to inherit, so why should I be obsessed with an heir?"

Ye Lingxiao's eyes softened and he shook his head.

"From now on, my little girl will be my child. She is enough for me. But cousin, you have to work harder. I am looking forward to holding my little nephew."

The prince smiled bitterly upon hearing this and took a sip of the tea.

The prince thought about himself and realized that he had cultivated many women for that glimmer of hope, but now he only had a daughter born to his concubine.

The other princes who had sons were eyeing him covetously, and he was also very tired.

"Cousin, the people on the list have been placed in positions. We just need to wait for the fish to bite the hook."

Seeing that the prince said nothing, Ye Lingxiao changed the subject.

"I have handed Xiaoyaofang over to Madam Chun to take care of, and An Er will be in charge of delivering messages. From now on, we will meet somewhere else. My little ancestor is a jealous person."

The prince laughed out loud at his smug look.

"You, I'm afraid you will be eaten up by this girl in this life. However, it is also your blessing to have the company of your beloved."

Ye Lingxiao said with a playful smile, "I am very happy about it. Cousin, you should envy me for having such a lovely person to love."

After saying this, Ye Lingxiao stood up and was about to leave.

"Okay, cousin, I won't bother you any more. I have to go back to study for the imperial examination and marry my first-place winner. If you have nothing else to do, don't come to me. I'm busy lately."

The prince shook his head helplessly, picked up the folding fan at hand and hit him, "Go away, stop irritating me."

Ye Lingxiao bowed and left, then turned to leave. Suddenly he remembered something and turned back and said with a smile,

"By the way, the position of Minister of Revenue should be replaced by someone else. His daughter dared to insult me ​​in front of me and made my ancestors cry. Cousin, you can handle this matter."

"With your protective attitude, you'd be a tyrant even if you were the emperor. Okay, I get it. Get out of here now."

The prince was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and threw the folding fan in his hand at him.

Ye Lingxiao smiled and waved his hand, dodged the folding fan thrown by the prince, and left the East Palace in big strides.

The prince was left alone with a bitter smile and shook his head, "This bastard boy."

Time flies, the spring breeze is warm and the sun is shining.

In a blink of an eye, it was the spring examination that the students had been looking forward to.

There are three examinations, one every three days, for a total of nine days.

It is a great test of the candidates' physical strength and willpower.

Outside the Imperial Examination Hall, Liu Qianyu and the eldest princess sat in the carriage, waiting for Ye Lingxiao to finish the exam.

"The young master is out." Xi Bao's happy loud voice came.

Liu Qianyu and the eldest princess hurriedly got off the carriage.

As the sun sets, the examinees, some exhausted and some looking pale, walk out of the Imperial Examination Hall one after another.

Liu Qianyu's gaze shuttled through the crowd, and finally, she saw Ye Lingxiao.

His face looked normal, with a faint smile on his lips, and he slowly walked out of the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall.

It was as if I had just returned from a spring outing rather than having experienced nine days of torture.

Ye Lingxiao immediately locked his eyes on Liu Qianyu. He quickened his pace and came to her, with tenderness flashing in his eyes.

"Yu'er."

"Brother Ling Xiao, are you okay?"

Liu Qianyu looked at him carefully. There were dark circles under his eyes and his face still looked a little tired.

"Yu'er, I'm fine. I'll perform normally. Just wait to be my top scholar wife."

He spoke lightly, but the confidence and pride in his eyes could not be hidden.

The eldest princess looked at this perfect couple and her eyes became slightly red. She gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

"Okay, okay, Xiao'er, you've worked hard. Mother has already arranged the wedding properly, and is just waiting for the time to come so that you two can get married immediately."

Ye Lingxiao bowed in a joking manner.

"Thank you, mother, and thank you, Princess."

The eldest princess was amused by the little monkey.

Ye Lingxiao turned around and looked at Liu Qianyu infatuatedly.

"Yu'er, we haven't seen each other for nine days."

The eldest princess's eyes were almost drawn when she saw these two people.

Especially this son, the tenderness in his eyes and eyebrows can squeeze out water.

Seeing that her son wanted to kiss her in public, the eldest princess coughed lightly.

"Go back quickly. Mom has prepared a lot of delicious food to reward you."

The eldest princess took Liu Qianyu's hand, and the three of them got on the carriage and drove towards Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

On the day when the results were announced, the whole capital was bustling with activity.

Ten years of hard study are all for the hope of getting on the list one day.

Xi Bao went out early in the morning to check the list. When she came back, she was in high spirits and rushed into the mansion shouting.

"The young master won first place! First place!"

This news was like a bolt from the blue, exploding in the mansion in an instant.

The princess burst into tears of joy and kept saying, "My Xiao'er, you are really amazing!"

Ye Lingxiao turned around and ran out, "Mom, I'm going to tell Yu'er the good news!"

"This brat, there will be a wedding announcement officer coming soon, he really can't wait a moment."

Duke Dingguo became angry when he saw his son was so impatient.

"What are you doing, Xiao'er? You have been studying hard at home for a long time. You must find more opportunities to see your sweetheart after the exam."

The eldest princess slapped him in reproach.

"Okay, okay, I won't say any more. Our Xiao'er is the most sensible one."

Duke Dingguo grabbed the hand that was hitting his chest and hurried to comfort the princess.

I sighed secretly. Oh, I am afraid that my son's position in the family will be difficult to maintain in the future.
