The Zhen clan killed the girl Shui Xin of Taoyuan Pavilion, until Du Jian snatched Shui Xin's body from those people and finished the burial, Zhen didn't say a word to Hua Wai, and even sent someone to Taoyuan Pavilion to inform her of the reason for dealing with this girl, Hua Cry was not qualified to go to Zhen's housewife to question, as far as her identity was concerned, if it weren't for Ye Qinglin spoiling her, she would be a cheap concubine who didn't have to do the work of a subordinate in the mansion at most, Hua Cry waited in Taoyuan Pavilion for three days, and waited for her husband Ye Qinglin to come back to administer justice to her.

But Ye Qinglin has not come back until today, counting at least ten days, what Ye Qinglin is going to do, even Du Jian doesn't know.

Du Jian found Shuixin's family and gave them thirty taels of silver, although the family didn't say anything after seeing the silver, whether it was sold as a slave or not, there was always no daughter, and this kind of grief of losing relatives was deeply understood.

Taoyuan Pavilion was gloomy, and the entire Hou Mansion was actually not much festive.

On April 15th, the Hou Mansion was only a month away from the last time, and once again ushered in the good news, a team of officials beat gongs and drums, hugged Zi Yu, who was riding a big white horse tied to the red flower in front, came to Xuanyang Hou Mansion to report the good news, and since entering the city gate, he shouted all the way to the Hou Mansion's second son Ye Hanlin High School Jinshi Tanhua, and became a protégé of the Son of Heaven!

The melon-eating masses in the city surrounded the open space in front of the Hou Mansion solidly, although many of them had never read a book, and they didn't even know what Tanhua was, they knew that this was a talented man who was in the Jinluan Palace, and he would be a big official in the future.

Ningyang City, where there is a bit of status, squeezed into the Xuanyang Hou Mansion early in the morning, from the gate to the middle courtyard, the hand has not been put down, everyone is followed by one or two people holding the congratulatory gift, the people in the front yard to pay the congratulatory gift to the door of the house, and then recorded by the deacon of the Hou Mansion, and loudly shouted out the other party's master's surname, title, house door and congratulatory gift list, the adults in and out heard the Hou Mansion deacon's loud shout, some blushed, some proud, some calm, when the congratulatory gifts they gave were more shabby than others, The face can't be hung up, the congratulatory gifts are higher than others, they are full of spring breeze, and there are also some pretentious congratulatory gifts that are neither high nor low, and they don't care how much others give, this is the sophistication of human feelings.

Ye Yanqing and his wife Zhen took Ziyu to greet the guests who came to congratulate them in the middle courtyard, their faces were full of enthusiasm, and their hearts had already fallen into the ice hole.

In the secret compartment of Ye Yanqing's study, there is still a holy decree of the first emperor left by her mother Princess Qinghe, which says: Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Qinghe, is my sister, diligent and submissive, intelligent and virtuous, and even has my heart, and crowned his son Ye Yanqing as the Marquis of Ningyang County, succeeded to Xuanyang, and eats ten thousand households.

This holy decree is the only goal that the Ye family has been striving for for decades, and it clearly says "three yuan and the first", the entire Ye family has done everything possible to develop the power, lay a solid foundation, and find a way to replace the top spot on the list, hoping that before the death of this generation of Xuanyang and Ye Yanqing, the family can have a descendant of Lianzhong Sanyuan, so as to keep the status of the entire Ye family and keep the ten thousand households.

But the sky doesn't follow people's wishes, in the past few decades, there is no outstanding humanistic talent among the descendants of the Ye family, let alone the champion, Huiyuan doesn't even have the desire to pave the way, and it's a joke to go to the king without a little ink, nine times out of ten the emperor will see it, and then send secret agents to touch the bottom of the Xuanyang Marquis Mansion, and at that time, it will be too late to regret it.

Ye Yanqing naturally understands this truth, so in the family, after the township test, you can see which can be "cultivated" and which is waste, and Ziyu is the only child in the clan who can meet the standards in the past few decades, with both talent and appearance, pure conduct, everyone loves it when they see it, and he goes to the king, and he is also a gentleman who can get on the table, since the good news that the eighteenth son Yu won the Huiyuan in March, Ye Yunqing once thought that the Ye family was hopeful, but now it is ...... Nowadays, the Jinshi in Ziyu is not the champion, but the third Tanhua on the gold list.

If it is changed to an ordinary family, Tanhualang, one of the "Three Dingjia", is a happy event that is bigger than the sky, and he can also become famous in one fell swoop, and it is a matter of time before Ziyu becomes an official, but his Tanhua makes the Ye family feel hopeless, if even Ziyu can't be three yuan and the first, lean over and look at the entire Ye clan, who else can take on this heavy responsibility?

Ye Yanqing and Zhen's family sent away a wave of guests who came to congratulate with a smile on their yellow lotus, looking at the congratulatory gifts piled up in the courtyard, this gift will not be able to be repaid in the future.

Ye Yanqing fell down that night in a hurry!

Zhen's hands and feet were at a loss, staying in front of the couch and crying and shouting, this champion was gone, and the Hou Ye was sick again, sighing and crying how to live this life in the future!

On the other hand, Ziyu has unloaded a heavy burden, this Tanhua is not someone else's, it is his own, his real own ability, he did not look at the question sent by the "Xue Gonggong" in the palace, but with his own real talent to learn to test Tanhua, he has been thinking, if the family did not do tricks and feet in the township test and the meeting test, with his own talent, he can also go all the way to the king, and he will not let those students who are at the top ruin their good future, but what the clan needs is Sanyuan, not any list on the list, I just sigh and can't help myself!

Ziyu knelt in front of the couch and fed Ye Yanqing the decoction, Ye Yanqing kept shaking his head and sighing, he fell ill because he was desperate.

"Father, the child is not filial and failed to win glory for the Ye family, but please don't be disappointed by the father, the child will be able to become an official in a few days, and he will also have an official status, and the Ye family will not be a common person in the future."

"Ziyu, you don't understand, if your Tanhua dies, you will be sealed to a seventh-grade official in Xia County, and you can only come up until the Year of the Monkey?" Ye Yanqing shed two lines of turbid tears.

"Father, please believe that the child can expand his career with his own ability, and he is also a protégé of the Son of Heaven when he is sealed to Xia County."

"Child, you have only cared about studying since you were a child, but you don't know the darkness of officialdom, you are kind and upright, and naturally you don't want to do something about chickens and dogs, how can you get a career?"

"The child knows his father's good words, but please rest assured, the child has his own measure, don't be sad anymore, the body is important."

"My Ye family has many branches, and they all rely on Xuanyang to wait for food and ten thousand households and land properties to feed, after my death, this marquis is gone, relying on those fields alone, I can't afford to support many clansmen no matter what, how can I not worry?"

"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, why bother to feed them for generations, let those people do nothing all day long, do not want to forge ahead, live by the blessing of their ancestors, but also let their children and grandchildren also come to ask for this blessing, father, let go, rest assured that the sick will be cured, and the children will take care of this family in the future."
