The person who spoke was an offshoot of the Jia family, but he was also a well-developed member of the clan.

However, he didn't rely on the Jia family to make his fortune, but because of his own skills, he became the eldest son of Xie Xiangye.

He had long complained about Li Maixin, but now that he had a rare opportunity, he couldn't hold back and opened his mouth:

"Uncle Zheng, don't worry too much. According to my nephew, Brother Yu doesn't have to worry about his future even if he doesn't win. With Brother Yu's demeanor, there are many nobles who are willing to help plan!"

Jia Zheng's face darkened immediately.

There was no need for him to speak in person, naturally the clansman who was fawning on Ningrong Second Mansion reprimanded him for him.

"Jia Dang, what are you talking about? Do you think Yu'er is a small person like you?"

"My nephew is not convinced by what Uncle Clan said. What do you mean I am such a petty person?"

"It's the other way around, the elder dares to talk back in person, it seems that the patriarch must be invited to ask for a monastic law!"

Then everyone began to criticize Jia Dang for all kinds of wrongdoings, and changed the topic.

Jia Zhen stepped forward and whispered:

"Second Uncle, relax your mind. Brother Yu's knowledge is obvious to all. Maybe there are too many people watching the list, and the servants didn't come back to report because they didn't squeeze forward. Just wait patiently! Taking ten thousand steps back, it is It's not ideal this time, is there any chance at Brother Yu's age?"

Jia Zheng's face paled slightly:

"Yu'er is young, and it has only been half a year since he returned home. I have seen all the hard work in the past six months, and it hurts in my heart. I am worried that if he is hit, I am afraid that he will not be able to accept it."

When he said that, he saw Jia Yu followed Jia Lian and welcomed the guests, so he stopped talking.

Just at this moment, someone shouted impolitely from afar:

"Master? Hit! Master? Master?"

Jia Lian dashed out, grabbed the yelling person and ran into the hall. The person was panting heavily, with a smirk on his face:

"My lord, my lord won, No. 15!"

With a "boom", Jia Zheng felt that his brain was stunned and he couldn't react.

Jia Zhen and other clansmen around him, as well as his disciples congratulated him, and then grabbed the other party, Jia Yu, to please him non-stop.

From the host's house to the guests, to the servants at home, all ran over to beg for rewards.

It's the same with Mrs. Wang. When she was disappointed, she suddenly received such good news, and she was so happy that she didn't know what to do!

All the maids and women in the mansion came to congratulate her, and she was so happy that she was only called Sister Feng to spread rewards!

Sister Feng walked briskly, and said with a smile:

"While using my wife's instructions, I have already prepared a few baskets of reward money and put them there, just waiting for my wife to say 'reward'!"

The old lady also came over, and upon hearing her words, urged her:

"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and ask someone to change it if it's not enough! Where's Yu'er? Isn't Yu'er here?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly stepped forward to support her and said:

"Old lady, don't worry, Yu'er is receiving guests at his father's place in front of him, so he won't be able to get away if he wants to come here at the moment, but he can come later if he can!"

Also called people:

"Go and help the third old lady out! This day of great joy cannot be without her!"

The three old ladies were helped out, their faces were full of tears but they smiled happily, and they sat down with Jia's mother with mutual humility.

Jia Yu finally managed to deal with the clansmen, and was slapped and patted by the excited Jia Zheng.

Jia Zheng was excited for a while and said:

"Go inside and kowtow to your mother, the old lady, and the third old lady."

"Yes!" Jia Yu agreed, leading the people to the inner courtyard.

As soon as he came in, he was praised by relatives and women one by one, but Jia Yu blushed with embarrassment, and kowtowed to the old lady and grandmother.

"Thank you grandma for teaching me!"

The three old ladies burst into tears.

Mother Jia sighed:

"Good boy, if you can pass the exam with your own ability, you are promising, and you should continue to work hard in the future!"

"Yes, I respect the old lady's teaching!"

"Go ahead, thank your wife for your hard work, and apologize for grandma!" The third old lady was finally able to speak.

Jia Yu knelt down in front of Mrs. Wang, and before she could speak, Mrs. Wang, who was full of tears but couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, helped him up:

"You can't live without your grandmother's teachings today. It's too late for mother to be grateful. How can I let you complain to me for her old man!"

The women all over the ground couldn't help being affected by this atmosphere, and they all wiped their eyes.

Wang Xifeng wiped her eyes and said with a smile:

"I don't know why, but why are you all crying when it's clearly a day of great joy? It's my wife's birthday, and Brother Feng Yu passed the imperial examination. "

The words made everyone laugh, and the atmosphere warmed up. Mrs. Wang was finally in the mood to entertain guests on her birthday, and all the guests of honor were happy for a while.

The small troupe outside sang lively, and the atmosphere in the hall was just right.

At this moment, suddenly the housekeeper ran in:

"My lord, a servant has arrived!"

Jia Zheng and Jia Amnesty looked at each other, and quickly got up to greet them.

Dai Quan walked in with a smile on his face:

"Congratulations to the old Taoist. The concubine Xiande is pregnant with a dragon son. The sage is overjoyed. The concubine Xiande is now conferred the title of concubine concubine. The official of the Ministry of Rites announced the decree today at noon. Do you think it is a great joy?"

Jia Zheng was about to be overwhelmed by the good news one after another today.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen hurriedly thanked Eunuch Dai for him.

Jia Mu and others in the inner court also received the news, so happy that Jia Mu hurriedly asked for a reward!

At this time, Sister Feng no longer dared to say that the family was struggling to save money, and rewarded the servant who came to report the letter.

Now Mrs. Wang completely became the protagonist, surrounded by relatives and kept receiving everyone's congratulations.

Mrs. Wang couldn't help sighing:

"I feel that Yu'er is lucky. Since he came back, I haven't had any troubles, and I haven't had any minor problems with my body. Now he even gave me such a heavy gift on my birthday, and he brought him Elder sister has been promoted to imperial concubine, she is a little lucky star!"

Everyone naturally followed her words and praised her.

Others don't think so, but Jia's mother has turned a few times in her heart.

Do you know why?

It turned out that when Jia Yu and Baoyu were born, there was only a few tens of breaths behind each other, and Baoyu's jade was not taken out of his mouth as the legend said, but was found in his hands.

Since the two were born so close together, it is not clear which jade it is, but Jia's mother spotted Baoyu at a glance and said that the jade belonged to him, so she kept him.

Baoyu stayed in the house for 15 years, and nothing special happened, except that a mother was born in the family, but after Jia Yu came back, many things happened, which made Jia's mother think deeply.

After a while, the rewards from the palace also came out, there was a birthday gift for Mrs. Wang, and a congratulatory ceremony for Jia Yu's tribute. This time the gifts were much heavier than before.

The excitement of the Jia family lasted for three days.

The old relatives who got the news on the second day came to congratulate them, so they naturally had to entertain them. On the third day, Jia Zheng's colleagues and Jia Yu's friends naturally also came, and it was time for the palace examination.

Jia Yuhan was about to drip.

Ever since he was selected as a tribute, the teacher has been stricter to him than before. After the banquet on the third day, he left him with more homework. Jia Yu understood what he meant, and he planned to work harder before the palace examination. Fight hard, hoping to get a good rank in the palace examination.

He is not a person who does not know good and bad, and he obediently closed his door to study again, which surprised many people.

What is worth dropping is that Shi Jinwen of the historian also passed the exam, but his ranking was relatively low.

It is rare for an honorable family to have children from imperial examinations, and the two of them can be regarded as rising stars.

After finally getting through these few days, when it was time for the palace examination, Jia Yu felt as if she had been liberated, which shows how hard she was forced during this period.

Exams are not a burden to Jia Yu, but a kind of enjoyment, even the imperial examination.

Jia Yu, who is good-natured and calm, is very conspicuous among a group of tributes. After all, it is rare to see such a good-looking young man as him, even the emperor took a few extra glances.He said to the left and right prime ministers around him:

"Which one is this? How is it ranked?"

Zuo Xiangfang continued: "Among the tribute scholars just admitted this year, there is only one sixteen-year-old student who came from Jinling with the name Jia Yu. It seems to be this person! Coincidentally, the same batch of candidates has the same name as Jia Yu from Suzhou. Yu, it's just that the rankings of the two are far apart, this Jinling Jia Yu is ranked No. 15!"

The emperor also remembered what he said, and even more remembered the stupid things that the son of the right minister did. It is said that it was to plot against this person.

The emperor nodded:

"In this way, he can be regarded as a young talent!"

Zuo Xiang smiled and said:

"Maybe the emperor doesn't know, this Jia Yu can still be regarded as a foreign relative!"

"The Jia clan of Jinling? Could it be the clan of the noble concubine?" The emperor thought for a while.

"No, it is said that Jia Yu is the concubine's half-brother and the nephew of Prince Teng Wang. It was only because Jia Daichun and his son, the younger brother of Rong Guogong Jia Daishan, died in the battlefield, that he adopted Jia Daichun's branch at birth. Down."

Prime Minister on the right glanced at Prime Minister on the left and said:

"The Zuo Xiang is very well informed, even these things are clear. I wonder if the situation of other tributes is also well known?"

The left and the right are always at odds.

Zuo Xiang smiled and said:

"The descendants of the loyal generation should remember that no one is as good as the right minister, he is arrogant, even the brother of the talented young concubine after loyalty can be treated as a child molestation plaything!"

"You're talking nonsense! Your Majesty..." Prime Minister Right's expression changed drastically, and he was about to argue when the Emperor raised his hand to stop him:

"Okay, what place is this where you can fight?"

The left and right sides pleaded guilty at the same time, the emperor waved his hands indifferently, and continued to sit at the top and look at the people below to answer.

Jia Yu kept her head buried in the answer, the emperor's position was far away from them, and he couldn't see clearly even when he looked up, so he didn't waste that effort to satisfy his curiosity.

The topic of the palace examination this time is about people's livelihood, he has to think carefully, that is, he must not deviate from the topic, and he must have something to say, and he has to figure out what he wants in order to get a good ranking.

This is what the teacher taught him. I have to say that the benefits of having a good teacher are beyond Ye Luzi's comparison.

When the time was up, all put down their pens, and the waiter led them to the prepared rest room to rest and change clothes, and then everyone relaxed.

Everyone in the palace was very cautious, for fear of breaking a taboo, no one dared to chat in private, even Jia Yu and Shi Jinwen just greeted each other with their eyes and found their seats.

Having nothing to do, Jia Yu found out that someone's clothes were wet on the back. Now they are wearing cotton jackets. It is amazing to be able to wet the cotton jackets!

Time passed in his self-entertainment, until the servant came to summon him.
