Chapter 33 Gains and Losses

The Great Zhou Dynasty did not give a heavy responsibility to Princess Shang's concubine, and the Marquis of Zhenbei was originally to return to his home to succeed the title of Marquis of Zhenbei, so he reconciled with the eldest princess and gave up the identity of the eldest princess.

Zhao Wanning was the lord of the county, and the Great Zhou Dynasty did not have many restrictions on the county horses. But Pei Yue is a person who wants to do big things after all, and if he is involved in these things, I am afraid it will hinder his career.

Taifu Pei didn't want him to have anything to do with the royal woman.

The same is true in the previous life, if it weren't for the rumors about him and Zhao Wanning in the capital, in order to maintain Zhao Wanning's reputation, Pei Yue had to marry Zhao Wanning, and Taifu Pei would definitely not allow him to marry Zhao Wanning.

"Yuanqing, let's change someone." Taifu Pei pondered for a long time and said in a low voice: "The royal woman is not something we can think of. ”

"Look at our Pei Mansion," Mrs. Pei stood up and pointed to the wall in the courtyard. The walls were cracked because of disrepair.

"Thirteen years ago, when your father was still alive, I would never have stopped you from marrying your beloved. It's just that you have also seen that our Pei Mansion is now in ruins. ”

"The county lord is a golden branch and jade leaf, and he is the body of a daughter. How can you bear to live such a hard life with your beloved? ”

Pei Yue was a little shaken. When they got married in the last life, the eldest princess used the decline of Pei's Mansion as an excuse to let them continue to live in the eldest princess's mansion after they got married. He didn't understand it at that time, thinking that the eldest princess loved her daughter very much, and was reluctant to let Zhao Wanning suffer, so he asked them to stay in the eldest princess's mansion.

He had already entered Dali Temple at that time. Every day is busy with the daily official affairs of Dali Temple, and I have to find time to track down my father's affairs, and I am busy every day. I don't have much time to accompany Zhao Wanning on weekdays, so I thought that it would be good to live in Invite Moon Garden, at least Zhao Wanning would be accompanied.

It wasn't until he lived in the Eldest Princess's Mansion that he knew about Zhao Wanning's grievances in the Eldest Princess's Mansion.

He believed that Zhao Wanning also wanted to escape from the Eldest Princess's Mansion.

Pei Yue opened his mouth and said, "Grandpa, Wanning is not that kind of person. ”

"It doesn't matter if she's that kind of person or not," Taifu Pei turned to look at him, "Yuan Qing, the status is here." You can't bear to let her be a county lord and succumb to our Pei Mansion. But have you ever wondered if the eldest princess, the mother of the county lord, is willing? Is she willing to marry her own daughter into a declining family like ours? ”

Pei Yue still wanted to continue fighting, but Taifu Pei interrupted him: "Yuanqing, there are still many things you have to do, and the personal relationship of your children is the least important one." ”

"Think about it."

With that, Mrs. Pei turned around and left without looking back.

Leaving Pei Yue alone in the courtyard.

Pei Yue poured himself a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it all.

This wine was made by my grandfather himself. The degree is not high, and the mouth is sweet. Pei Yue tasted a hint of bitterness.

Grandpa was right. He is now just a man with no merit in his body. Even if he can be the top student in high school this time, he still has a father who has been unjustly convicted. He needs to overturn the case for his father and revitalize the Pei family.

None of these piles can be done in a moment. Husband and wife share honor and disgrace, if Zhao Wanning marries him at this time, I am afraid that even Zhao Wanning will be swept into the whirlpool by him.

But Pei Yue didn't want to wait any longer.

Zhao Wanning is the person he has put on the tip of his heart for more than ten years.

Originally, Zhao Wanning had a marriage contract with others, he thought that he would have no chance with Zhao Wanning in this life, who would have thought that by coincidence, he would be able to marry Zhao Wanning.

At that time, he hadn't even participated in the exam, and even if he had to understand the yuan, he was just a person who had passed the township exam.

If he never got it, Pei Yue could still comfort himself, he and Zhao Wanning were really inseparable, and Zhao Wanning also deserved a better home.

But he obviously married Zhao Wanning. Moreover, in getting along after marriage, Zhao Wanning also had affection for him.

However, just when he loved Zhao Wanning the most, Zhao Wanning fell from the building, and the bond between them was gone.

Pei Yue was in pain for a long time.

By chance, he was born again. Reborn to the time when Zhao Wanning was still alive.

He was really indescribable, how excited he was when he saw Zhao Wanning alive.

Maybe there are gains and losses - Zhao Wanning is still alive, Zhao Wanning dissolved the marriage contract, but he lost the opportunity to marry Zhao Wanning.

Pei Yue wanted to take the initiative to come to the door to marry Zhao Wanning.

Grandpa disagreed.

It was no surprise that Pei Yue won the first place in the general examination, and then won the first place in the subsequent palace examination.

Since then, Pei Yue has become the youngest champion since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

On the day of the release, there were a lot of people outside the Gongyuan. Most of them are students who stay under the list and wait for the release of the list.

There are also some girls' families, if there are students who fancy them, they can catch their sons-in-law on the list.

Zhao Chen'an is also among them.

On that day, she saw His Royal Highness the handsome Prince outside the Tribute Courtyard, and secretly promised him. But there are so many people who like His Royal Highness the Prince, he is the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he is the future son of heaven, and he is the prince of a country. If you marry him, you will be the mother of a country, and you will be rich and rich.

Zhao Chen'an Xiao has been thinking about that position for a long time. But she also knew that with her current identity alone, an orphan girl living in the eldest princess's mansion would not be able to marry the crown prince and become the crown princess no matter what.

At most, she was favored by the prince by virtue of her beautiful appearance, included in the mansion, and became a good concubine. Since then, he can only stay in the backyard of the East Palace, competing with the prince's other wives and concubines. Every day I am worried about which room the prince goes to, there is only the prince in my life, and I can only revolve around the prince alone.

Zhao Chenan didn't want to put himself in such a predicament.

Although she is a chess piece, she also has her own ideals and ambitions. It's just that the world favors men, and only allows men to make meritorious deeds. If she wants to make a career, she can only rely on men.

With such a prestigious position, she still wants to get it. Although the process may have some twists and turns, Zhao Chenan will never give up.

Zhao Chenan obeyed Zhang Daochang's instructions and stayed under the list, paying attention to who won the top spot in the final examination.

And then marry the champion.

The students who entered the palace examination this time are not very old, and such young people are most likely to indulge in beauty. If she uses a beauty trick to make the other party fall under her pomegranate skirt, she can use it for herself.

Zhao Chenan is very confident in his charm, and Qi Zheng is the best proof of this.

Zhao Wanning was talking about business with people in the restaurant today.

Her pastry shop opened and business was booming. The northern taste of pastries is unique in the capital, and almost all the pastries made every day are sold out. Some restaurants moved their minds and wanted to cooperate with her. Zhao Wanning sells the pastries to the restaurant, which in turn sells it to the guests.

Zhao Wanning naturally will not give up this opportunity to make money.

The restaurant is located on Suzaku Street, and the decoration is very poetic, which is different from the magnificence of Qingle Restaurant.

At this time, Zhao Wanning and the owner of the restaurant sat in the wing room facing the street on the second floor, and downstairs was Suzaku Street. Suddenly, there was a buzz.

Zhao Wanning was still wondering what was going on, and the owner of the restaurant took the lead in speaking: "It seems that the results of the palace test have come out, and the top three are traveling across the street." ”

Zhao Wanning's mind moved.

She didn't inquire about the results of the examination, and she didn't know if Pei Yue won the Huiyuan as in the previous life, let alone what the results of the palace examination would be. But there is a trace of certainty in her heart: Pei Yue will definitely be able to connect the three yuan like in the previous life. The person who crossed the street this time may be Pei Yue.

Zhao Wanning couldn't hold back her curiosity and didn't poke her head out to look at the excitement downstairs.

It's just that the street is too big.

In front, there were palace musicians beating gongs, drums, and firecrackers, and there were onlookers coaxing and discussing. The sound is very noisy.

The window of the box where Zhao Wanning was located was open, and the sound went straight into the ears, which was difficult to ignore.

The spring breeze is proud, and once you see all the Chang'an flowers.

The Great Zhou Dynasty continued the customs of the previous dynasty, and the top three in the palace test had to ride a high-headed horse and beat gongs and drums to parade around the capital.

Suzaku Street is the only way they want to go on their parade.

A long time ago, the restaurants on both sides of Suzaku Street were booked. Many people are just waiting for today, occupying the best view upstairs to see the top list and explore the flowers.

This is the case in the wing next door. There were probably a few boudoir women in the room, and they had been chattering non-stop since the sound of firecrackers.

Although the owner of the restaurant is a young man, he also likes to join in the fun. Originally, he was still discussing the details of cooperation with Zhao Wanning, but as soon as he heard the sound of gongs and drums, he leaned out: "I'm the son of a merchant, I'm afraid that I won't have anything to do with the imperial examination in this life, so let me touch the joy of these champions." ”

Zhao Wanning was a little helpless, the partners were all going to see the excitement, and she couldn't continue to talk about business. She finally obeyed her heart and poked her head out of the window.

"I just want to confirm whether this year's champion is Pei Yue or not." Zhao Wanning silently explained in her heart.

Walking in the front were the honor guards in the palace, who were dressed in neat palace clothes and tied with red silk around their waists. The suona and bone hammer are also bright red satin.

Zhao Wanning watched them walk around the corner, and soon a tall horse appeared behind the honor guard. The horse had red silk flowers tied on its head, and then it was Pei Yue, who was sitting on the horse in high spirits.

The champion who dominates the lead is naturally going to be at the forefront, and there are two horses behind him, which are Bangyan and Tanhua respectively.

Zhao Wanning could only see Pei Yue in his eyes.

Pei Yue was dressed in a bright red champion suit, with a golden wing and a golden flower inserted on both sides of the hat, which means that from now on the official fortune will be prosperous and the icing on the cake. There was also a bright red silk flower on his chest, and the red color made his face ruddy.

Sure enough, it was Lang Jun, a young man in fresh clothes and angry horses.

In the last life, when Pei Yue won the top prize, Zhao Wanning was punished by the eldest princess to kneel, locked up in the small Buddha hall, and was not allowed to go out. The eldest princess even locked the doors and windows of the small Buddha hall, and Zhao Wanning had no way to escape even if she wanted to jump out of the window.

Therefore, Zhao Wanning did not see Pei Yue crossing the street.

She never knew that Pei Yue was so handsome and high-spirited when she wore the champion clothes, like a new rising sun, full of sunshine and hope.

The girl in the restaurant opposite began to throw handkerchiefs at Zhuang Yuanlang on the street downstairs, and Pei Yue dodged one by one. He knew that those handkerchiefs carried a woman's friendship.

However, what Pei Yue wanted to see most at this time was Zhao Wanning.

Only Zhao Wanning.
