Chapter 624: Sensationalism

Zhou Changying nodded suddenly and asked, "Is your brother now on an errand in the army?"

Lin Wan smiled slightly and said, "My brother is now a general in the southern suburbs, and he is on an errand under General Chen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Zhou Changying smiled and nodded, his eyes full of appreciation. Although she is not very familiar with Lin Ruichen, it is not easy to become a general at such a young age.

The carriage walked up the official road, and it didn't take long for him to see Bai Gonggong with a team of cavalry, rushing towards this side.

Riding a horse, it was Lin Ruichen who ran at the front, and on his side was Bai Gonggong, followed by hundreds of cavalrymen in armor.

Zhou Changying couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Gonggong Bai came back with the rescuers so soon, and ordered the carriage to stop.

Lin Ruichen stopped in front of Zhou Changying's carriage, turned over and dismounted, clasped his hands into fists, knelt on one knee, and said respectfully: "The last general, Lin Ruichen, see Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!"

"General Lin, be flat!" As he spoke, Zhou Changying turned his head to look at Lin Wan and asked, "Wan'er, is this your brother?"

Lin Wan nodded and said, "Yes, Your Royal Highness Princess, this is my brother Lin Ruichen." After speaking, he turned his head and smiled at Lin Ruichen and asked, "Brother, why are you here?"

Lin Ruichen stood up, smiled slightly, looked at Zhou Changying with his fists, and replied: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, the last general will get the news that there are suspicious people near Lingshan Temple, and I know that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess will bring her sister to Lingshan Temple to offer incense today, so today I arranged for a small team to come over to escort you." Unexpectedly, someone was really going to attack Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and after the last general got the news, he immediately rushed over. The last general is late, please ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess for forgiveness. ”

Zhou Changying shook his head slightly, and said, "General Lin has a heart, thanks to General Lin today, otherwise this palace would be really dangerous today." ”

Lin Ruichen hurriedly said: "This is what the last general should do. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has her own natural appearance, and she can naturally turn evil into good fortune. ”

Zhou Changying smiled slightly, and said: "General Lin has a meritorious escort, this palace will present the emperor tomorrow, and reward you, now send this palace back to the house first." ”

"Yes, the last general obeys the order!" Lin Ruichen bowed down to receive the order, flew on the horse, turned the horse's head, and ordered: "All the soldiers obey the order, the first team is in the front, the second team is in the back, escort the eldest princess back to the house!"

Father-in-law Bai quickly came to the carriage and replied to the eldest princess. said that on the way back to the city, he met General Lin with soldiers to Lingshan Temple, and General Lin knew that the eldest princess was attacked in Lingshan Temple, so he immediately hurried over.

Feng Zhanggong lowered the curtain, Bai Gonggong sat in the car in front of him, and the carriage slowly moved forward, heading towards the city.

The journey was very smooth, and if you want to be escorted by the army, even if the people of Qiannu Palace have the courage to do so, they don't dare to come and die again.

Zhou Changying first sent Lin Wan back to Lin Xiang's Mansion, and then took Ning Wuwu back to the eldest princess's mansion. When he was separated from Lin Wan, he agreed that tomorrow, Father-in-law Bai would personally pick up Lin Wan to go to the eldest princess's mansion to enjoy the famous calligraphy and paintings.

Everyone in the world knows that the eldest princess was able to write and martial when she was young, and her temperament was arrogant. He once went hunting and fought with the emperor, and before going out of the cabinet to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival, he also won the first place in calligraphy and painting. The eldest princess's mansion has a collection of ink treasures that cannot be famous, some of which were given by the emperor before, some of which were given by the current emperor, and there were also those that Ning Juma bought back from all over the country back then.

After Ning Juma died, Lin Wan was the first person who could be invited by the eldest princess.

When I returned to Lin Xiangfu, it was almost dark. However, the entrance of Lin Xiang's Mansion was still very lively, and Zhou Changying parked the carriage across the street in order not to attract the attention of others. After saying goodbye to Lin Wan, he quickly left Xiangfu Street.

Rao is so, or it caused a lot of commotion. When people saw that there was an army escorting the Wanxin County Lord back, they were full of curiosity, and after inquiring, they knew that it was the carriage of the eldest princess. As a result, the news that the eldest princess favored the lord of Wanxin soon spread throughout the capital.

Walking into Lin Xiang's mansion, Lin Wan was about to quietly return to his Wanxin Pavilion, but was stopped by Mother Du, who was waiting at the door of the backyard.

Mother Du was full of smiles, and hurriedly greeted her, and said with a smile: "Miss Seven, the old lady asked me to welcome you, today is a big joy in the house, and they are all having dinner in the old lady's room, just waiting for you and the master." As soon as the old man returned home, he went to change his clothes and came. You should also hurry back and change your clothes, and come to the Compassion Hall to eat immediately. ”

Lin Wan secretly complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to show half a point on his face, and asked happily: "Mother Du, did you pass the third brother's palace exam?

Mother Du smiled happily: "Miss Seven, our third son has fought for the master this time, and he has won the second place in the exam." ”

Lin Wan was also very surprised, how could Lin Ruiqi play extraordinarily and surpass He Shixiu, who was in second place? It stands to reason that He Shixiu is the most outstanding student in Jiangnan Academy in the past two years, and he shouldn't lose to Lin Ruiqi, is there any accident?

Mother Du didn't know the reason for it, so Lin Wan didn't ask any more, and walked quickly towards Wanxin Pavilion with Qingtong and Wang Qi.

Back at Wanxin Pavilion, Green Willow is busy changing Lin Wan's clothes, and Fluttershy is chattering on the sidelines, learning the rumors she heard from Lin Wan word for word.

It turned out that during today's palace examination, the emperor asked the three candidates to name the three shortcomings of today's officialdom on the spot and put forward their advice.

Xing Han and Lin Ruiqi have both received Lin Zhihuai's guidance, although their advice is different, but they have won the emperor's approval, and everything has reached the emperor's heart.

However, He Shixiu spoke sharply, although what he said was reasonable, but it made the emperor dislike it, and was considered by the courtiers to be grandstanding.

In the end, the emperor personally announced that Scholar Li drafted the decree on the spot, and named Xing Han as the champion, Lin Ruiqi as the role model, and He Shixiu as the Tanhua.

Lin Xiangfu is happy today, and many officials have rushed to Lin Xiangfu to congratulate Lin Zhihuai before he goes to the court.

Manager Wu was so busy today that his feet did not touch the ground, and he had not completely sent away the housekeepers sent by various prefectures to give gifts at this moment.

Lin Wan is not surprised when she listens to Fluttershy's story. Lin Zhihuai knows best how to speculate on the emperor's thoughts, what the emperor wants to ask today, it is estimated that he has already told Xing Han and Lin Ruiqi, although he wants Lin Ruiqi to be the champion, but Lin Ruiqi was originally mentioned in the top three exceptionally, and then he was admitted to the champion, so how can he block the mouth of Youyou?

Rao is like this, and the people have already begun to discuss, is this Lin Sangongzi really material? Or is it because there is a prime minister's father who is the chief examiner?

However, Xing Han, the champion, deserves his name, and no one dares to question it.
