In the wind and snow one after another, send away the winter moon to usher in the wax moon, and it is the Spring Festival of another year.

Qingzhou Academy and Sanyuan Academy are scheduled for annual leave on the 22nd day of the lunar month, the day before the New Year.

Because the time of the annual leave had already been announced, on this day, Father Ye asked Ye Damin to personally take Jin Daman and Jin Xiaoman to Fucheng to pick everyone up.

That's right, a horse-drawn cart and not a donkey cart or an ox cart.

Half a month ago, Father Ye finally persuaded the Chen family to add two old horses to the family.

The horse is indeed an old horse but quite strong, and the leg strength is also very good, from Houwu Village to the Sanyuan backstreet in Fucheng in less than an hour, which is much faster than the donkey cart and ox cart!

Following these two carriages into the city was Qi Zhenxing's donkey cart, who came to pick up Qi Zhenting and Qi Dabao back to Zhuangzi for the New Year.

Qi Zhenting and Qi Dabao are Ye Zhan and Ye Shen's little servants respectively, but they will be let go back to Zhuangzi to reunite with their relatives during the New Year's holidays, let alone the New Year.

In addition to taking everyone back for the New Year, she also has to move all the New Year's goods that Lin Wan has bought these days home.

As soon as the group loaded their things into the car, they saw a carriage turn out of the street corner, and it was Ji Kang who came over with the old servant to meet them.

Ji Kang has no relatives in Fucheng, and there are no direct relatives in his hometown in Beixi County, Master Zeng invited Ji Kang to celebrate the New Year with the prefect on behalf of Lord Qian, although Ji Kang did not agree, he also planned to take the old servant to spend the New Year in the Sanyuan Academy, but in the end, he couldn't stop the Ye family brothers from inviting them to go to Houwu Village for the New Year.

When Ji Kang came over, he brought everyone a news from the capital, that is, the imperial court will open Enke in February next year.

"It's only now that it has reached Qingzhou Mansion, can our Qingzhou Mansion move in time to go to the capital to catch the exam?" Ye Qing frowned when he heard this, most of the people in Qingzhou Mansion who could go to the capital to take the exam were students from Qingzhou Academy.

"I can still catch up with the capital after the New Year, but the news did come a little late, but I'm afraid that few people are prepared for this." Ji Kang also shook his head.

When I got the news last night, Lord Qian and Master Zeng were also very worried about the children of Qingzhou Mansion!

Of course, those who are motivated are not completely unprepared.

The old emperor died and the new emperor ascended the throne, and according to the usual practice, there were always some new policies in the imperial court, and generally speaking, in addition to pardoning those criminals who were not the most heinous crimes, most of them would open Enke.

However, this kind of thing has nothing to do with the Ye family, after all, only Ye Qing has a reputation for showing off his talents, and Enke can only participate in it.

When Xie Huang heard the news, he sighed for a long time, and only hated himself for not being angry, and he didn't pass in last year's township exam, otherwise he would have been able to go to the capital to participate in Enke.

Although he didn't have a chance to Enke, it also greatly stimulated Xie Huang and Ye Qing's enthusiasm for learning, these two people already have a reputation for showing their talents, as long as they pass the next township test to achieve fame, they can participate in the next Spring Festival.

After Chinese New Year's Eve, the 27-year celebration year in Dayu Kingdom came to an end, ushering in the first year of eternal peace.

This year, Enke, the eighteen-year-old Lin Hongfei, the eldest son of the second room of Zhennan Hou Mansion, topped the high school list, and since the founding of the People's Republic of China, one door and two champions were born in Zhennan Hou Mansion.

Lin Hongfei's father, Lin Wenbo, is the second son of the Hou Yan of Zhennan, and he is the champion of the 12th year of Qingli.

Since the age of six, Lin Wenbo has been the companion of the eldest prince, the current emperor.

He is both the prince's companion and the son of the Marquis of Zhennan, so he could have been out of office without participating in the imperial examination, and he could have been able to go out with the identity of his ancestor Yu Yin and the prince's companion.

Lin Wenbo was determined to be self-reliant, and did not rely on the shadow of his ancestors, but he was admitted step by step from the children's examination, and finally won the top prize in high school.

After leaving the office, he did not rely on the support of his father, brother and teacher, and after six years of errand in the Hanlin Academy, he sought an opportunity to go out, first served as the prefect of the most remote county in Jizhou Prefecture for six years, and was promoted to prefect three years ago.

Last year, soon after the new emperor ascended the throne, he gave a hint to the Ministry of Shangshu to transfer Lin Wenbo back to the capital.

Lin Wenbo was born as a champion, and his nine-year political achievements in Jizhou were also extraordinary, and he was the new emperor's companion, and there were really not many people who objected to the transfer of him back to the capital, so Lin Wenbo, who had been from the capital to Jizhou Mansion for nine years, finally returned to the capital with his wife and children, and served as the head of the household department, and quickly became a celebrity in front of the new emperor.

It has only been fifteen years since Lin Wenbo was the champion of high school, and his son Lin Hongfei has become a major event since the new emperor ascended the throne.

Zhennanhou Mansion has another champion, and it coincides with the 60th birthday of Mrs. Zhennanhou, and it is a double happiness to feast guests.

Most of the officials in the capital came to Zhennanhou Mansion with their families to congratulate them.

Mao Yanqiu was transferred to the capital from the local government three years ago, and he was actually the new emperor, and he was able to transfer to the capital at the same time as the new emperor, who was only the crown prince at the time, and after the new emperor ascended the throne, he naturally became a celebrity in front of the new emperor.

As the most eye-catching upstart, Mao Yanqiu is naturally also on the invitation list of Zhennan Hou Mansion.

On the birthday of Mrs. Cai, the Marquis of Zhennan, Mao Yanqiu brought his wife Wei to the banquet.

After the trip to Qingzhou Mansion, Xu is Lin Wan's words opened Wei's heart knot, although she still missed her missing daughter Mao Yanxia and never gave up searching, Wei's madness was cured.

Mao Yanqiu was led to the front yard by Lin Hongyun, the eldest grandson of Zhennan Hou, who greeted him in front of the door, and Wei was directly welcomed into the Zhenghe Hall where Mrs. Zhennan Hou was.

Today, almost all the ladies who come to celebrate their birthdays and feast will be welcomed here.

This is the first time that Wei has participated in such a high-level banquet after entering Beijing, and it is naturally the first time she has met Mrs. Zhennanhou.

This first glance surprised Weis.

How could this Hou lady Cai be so kind?

Before Wei could figure out why he felt that the people of the Hou Mansion were kind, he felt that there were so many people pointing fingers at him.

"The lady who just came in is a lady who I haven't seen before."

"She's the wife of Lord Mao Yan Qiumao, the deputy envoy of the Jinyi Guard."

"Didn't she say she had a problem here? How could you come here today, if you are sick, won't it collide with the joy of the Hou Mansion? ”

"I heard that I went to Qingzhou Mansion in the year, and although I still returned empty-handed, the illness was cured."

"Okay, okay, don't keep poking other people's lung tubes."

"Shhh, Zhuangyuanlang's mother is here, don't talk about it anymore."

“……”

Most of these discussions were very low, and only a few words could be heard clearly, but Wei was empowered.

She suddenly understood why she thought that Cai's face was kind, and the goddaughter Lin Wan who she recognized in Qingzhou Mansion looked a little similar to Mrs. Hou!

Wei couldn't help but glance at Cai's a few more times, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like it, he couldn't help but say: "Mrs. Hou reminds me of the goddaughter I just met in the winter last year, she looks very similar to you!" ”

As soon as these words came out, many people present felt that Wei's was really sick again!

Cai's heart jumped suddenly, and he subconsciously glanced at his second daughter-in-law Luo, but saw that Luo was talking to his sister-in-law next to him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Only then did he look at Wei, but when he saw that her eyes were clear, he knew that she was conscious at the moment, and Cai had the intention to pull Wei to ask for an understanding, but he understood that this was not the time to ask, so he just smiled gently at Wei, and did not answer Wei's words, but asked about Wei's mother's family, which was regarded as a temporary fork in the matter.

However, when Wei went to sit down, Cai quietly turned around and gave a look to the grandmother standing behind him, and the grandmother slowly nodded and retreated.
