After Geng Shuhuai returned to Bofu, he did not stay in the outer courtyard and went directly into the inner courtyard.

"Shu Lou is gone?" Geng Wen asked.

Geng Shuhuai nodded, "Let's go." ”

Geng Wen stood up, "Okay, go and call your third uncle, let's go to Yide Courtyard together." ”

"Do you want to ask my grandfather what my eldest brother did? And how? Geng Shuhuai asked.

Geng Wen nodded.

Geng Shuhuai sat down directly, "No need to go, he told me." ”

Geng Xingshuang was a little surprised, "What did Brother Lobby say?" ”

Geng Wen and Ruan also looked at Geng Shuhuai, Geng Shuhuai did not sell it, and repeated what Geng Shulou said to him almost word for word.

"So, he's for Sister Bing?" Geng Wen sighed.

Ruan Shi said: "Listening to what he said, it's not all, partly for Sister Bing'er, and partly for him to seek a future for himself in this way, but the result is not satisfactory."

"In the eyes of others, maybe this result is not good, the north is bitter cold, and there are often disputes with Yaomu, small wars are frequent, and big wars may not happen, Canghanwei is the last line of defense in Daning Beidi, although it is dangerous, but it also represents an opportunity."

Geng Xingshuang looked at Geng Shuhuai, blinked his eyes, and asked, "Second brother, have you been moved by Brother Lobby?"

Geng Shuhuai didn't answer yet, Ruan Shi immediately said: "Don't you listen to your lobby brother, no matter whether you are in the middle of the move this time, you will stay well in Ningdu City, and you don't need to fight for the future at home, all these years, you haven't had enough of suffering outside?" Shu Lou has never suffered, he just thinks that he can get through it, how does he know, bitter ...... It's not that delicious! ”

After Ruan finished speaking, he was still not at ease, and stared at Geng Shulou, as if he was afraid that he would run to the north again if he had an impulse.

"Mother, I don't know if I can pass the test, if I don't pass the test, what will I do in the Northland, Geng Shulou at least has the eight-rank captain given by the Holy Decree, what else can I do if I remove the running darts?"

"You're not running darts?" Ruan's voice seemed to mean this when he heard this.

Geng Shuhuai shook his head, "Don't run away." ”

Ruan Shi immediately said: "It's good not to run away, since you are going to stay in Ningdu, then your family affairs should be considered now."

When Ruan Shi said this, he carefully looked at Geng Shuhuai's face.

Sure enough, Geng Shuhuai's expression was a little stiff.

Geng Xingshuang thought of Wan Xiao, who had deliberately distanced himself from his eldest brother since he came to Ningdu City, and the two people who followed the Wanjia sisters and brothers on the day of the martial arts test, and said: "Mother, how can you wait for the results of the martial arts to come out, if the second brother becomes a martial arts person, he looks so tall and handsome, won't the matchmaker step through the threshold of Bofu!"

As soon as Geng Xingshuang's words came out, Geng Wen and Ruan both laughed.

Geng Shuhuai asked seriously: "Sister Shuang, do you really think I'm tall and handsome?"

Geng Xingshuang nodded affirmatively, "Really." ”

It's just that until the palace examination has begun, the list of martial arts has still not been released.

The palace examination is only one day, and the Son of Heaven personally produces the exam questions and invigilates the examination in person, although the examiner marks the papers, but they will pick out the first dozens and present them to the Son of Heaven, and the first and second top ten of the first and second lists will be hand-picked by the Son of Heaven Zhu Pen.

Because the people who participated in the palace examination were all tributes, the number of people was much smaller than that during the examination, and the speed of marking the papers was faster.

In less than three days, the results of the palace examination will be released.

Coincidentally, this day is also the day of the release of the martial arts list.

Geng Xingshuang felt that his legs were not enough to run, so he simply stopped running and just waited for the results at home.

"Girl, the second young master has won the martial arts, the third place!"

Ruan Shi and Geng Xingshuang immediately went to the outer courtyard, which was already lively, and Geng Wen was handing out rewards.

"Big brother, our family can be regarded as a martial artist!"

Geng Yan thought that he had taken the martial arts exam several times before, but he had frequently returned home, and pondered: "Isn't it that I haven't been a dart master, so I can't pass the exam?"

Geng Wen glanced at Geng Yan, "If you want to be a dart master, you don't need to go to Pingcheng, Maoshan knows the owner of the Yuan'an Dart Bureau, with your current skills, in a big dart game like the Yuan'an Dart Bureau, and you have never run a dart, it is a little difficult to be a dart master, but you should be able to be an executioner." ”

"Big brother, don't bury me, today is Brother Huai'er's big day, and it's also your happy event, you have to have a treat!"

Geng Wen nodded, and just wanted to speak, Geng Xun said to Geng Yan first: "Don't worry, you are indispensable."

Geng Yan was stunned for a moment, glanced at Geng Xun, and felt a little awkward.

"The eldest master, the eldest young master, the eldest wife, the sixth girl, the Yang family is here!"

Geng Yan was still thinking about whether to snob his snobbish father, when he heard someone come to report.

There are two people from the Yang family, Steward Zhong and Dewang.

"Master Ruan, Mrs. Ruan, the second son, the sixth girl, the sixth son of our family has been hit!" Steward Zhong was smiling.

"Really?" Geng Wen and Ruan asked almost at the same time.

"It really can't be more real!" Steward Zhong is happy to be Taotao's.

"What's the number?" Geng Shuhuai asked.

"Third place! Tanhualang! ”

Geng Shuhuai glanced at Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen, "Let Li Xu and Jiang Xingwen say yes, Yang Liu really hit Tanhua, he is amazing, and he finally entered the first list." ”

Yang Tianmo won the Jinshi, Geng Shuhuai won the martial arts, both ranked third, the brother and fiancé have a promising future, Geng Xingshuang is in a very good mood.

On the day when Xinke Jinshi crossed the horse and paraded the street, Geng Xingshuang wished Yan Geng Xingchen and others found a good position to watch together.

"I just heard Xiao Er say that next door is the private room set by the Cheng'en Mansion."

Zhu Yan whispered.

"Cheng'en Mansion? Isn't it Miss Zhangba? Jiang Xuefu thought for a moment and asked.

"There should be her, I see that the shopkeeper is trembling." Zhu Yan said.

Geng Xingchen was a little puzzled, "His Royal Highness King Li has now been demoted to a commoner, although the Cheng'en Mansion has not been questioned, can they still be so arrogant?" ”

"During these days, the Chengen Mansion has been silent a lot, but the crab brothers and sisters have been rampant and domineering in Ningdu City for so many years, how can they change their temperament so easily! After all, the queen is still there! ”

Although King Li was guilty of a great crime, he carried it on his shoulders, only insisting that neither the queen nor the Cheng'en Mansion knew about it, and Emperor Shengning also thoroughly investigated the Empress and the Cheng'en Mansion, and did not find that they had any contact with Mincheng.

Although Emperor Sheng Ning has average feelings for the queen, he has not thought about the abolition of the queen, since he has not found out what the queen has committed in any crime, the queen is naturally still the queen, and the queen's maiden family is naturally still the Chengen Mansion.

In the final analysis, King Li overturned this time, except for himself who was demoted to a commoner, and the people involved were not only the vassals of the royal palace, that is, those ministers who had already returned to King Li on the bright side, and among the rest of the people, only the second prince, King Shen, was punished by himself.

As for the reason, it was that he and King Li's brother and brother Gong did not find out that King Li was secretly hiding iron ore and traded with Artemisia Yan, and failed to persuade him in time, so that King Li made such a big mistake.

"Originally, everyone thought that the emperor would definitely not punish His Royal Highness King Shen."

Zhu Yan lowered his voice and said: "It is said that it is a brother and a friend and a brother Gong, but where is the real brother and friend of the royal family, and the prince has a bad temper, what is he going to do, where does His Royal Highness King Shen know, even if he knows, he can't control it, but I don't know what the emperor thinks, he was really punished, and the punishment was not light, and he was directly demoted."

Geng Xingshuang had long known that King Shen had also been punished, but she thought that King Shen was at fault in the matter of Mincheng, but she didn't expect it to be such a reason.

"What did Grandpa Guo and Shizi Ye say?"

Geng Xingshuang asked.

Zhu Yan shook his head, "Alas, don't mention it, my grandfather has been troubled by the second uncle and aunt during this time." ”
