Chapter 259 The grand Xue Mei

Xue Mei had no objection to Xi Baochen.

She is not an authoritarian parent, and it is not that if you don’t listen to me, I will suppress you.

On the contrary, Xue Mei supports Xi Baochen's choice.

Everyone has what they want. In times of tension, their heart is the most loyal and it will choose what is beneficial to them.

Xue Mei respects this choice.

She likes to eat date paste. If someone sneers at it, or even says that the date paste is too greasy and not worth eating, she probably wants to get angry.

What I chose is what I want.

She hasn't come here these days. One reason is that she is paying attention to the scientific examination and wants to know the results of the first scientific examination. Two reason is that it is very hot, and Xue Mei sweats all over when she moves, so she is too lazy to go out. The third reason is that she sends someone to learn about King Rong.

The scientific examination went smoothly, and the questions were given by the emperor himself, mainly examining current affairs.

In a total of three hours, the exam was taken in the Golden Palace, and the emperor and the ministers were invigilating the exam.

"Your Majesty is very satisfied with the papers collected. The Minister of Personnel, Prime Minister and several heads of family families were also reviewed. They were also surprised by the talents of these students." This was what Xiao Mingyu told Xue Mei.

The test paper has not been revised yet, and the results will be released before the first day of July. The specific day has not been decided.

According to Xue Mei's suggestion, the top three are called the top scorer, the second scorer, and Tanhua.

Everyone is waiting for the results.

Xue Mei knew about King Rong and found that his mansion had four staff members, all of whom were a little capable. He was very ambitious; he always wanted to marry the Qi family.

Another point is that King Rong is not in Beijing.

The weather was hot, and Qi Siran had to visit friends in other places. On the third day after she left, King Rong received the imperial edict and knew that he was going to get engaged, so he also went to other places.

The direction he went was the same as Qi Siran.

"Are you nervous?" Xue Mei asked Xi Baochen with a smile.

Xi Baochen felt very sad: "I'm not nervous, I'm just worried that you will be angry."

As she said that, her tears came down.

Xue Mei told her that she was not angry.

The two sisters opened their hearts and talked about this.

Xi Baochen cried for a while, and the matter that had been worried for a long time finally solved. Only then did she realize that she was a little happier.

"...Do you know that King Rong likes Qi Siran?" Xue Mei asked her.

Xi Baochen bit his lip: "Big sister, do you remember when I told you that Taoist priest asserted that I would be a princess in the future? He said that my road to wealth is rugged, and if I don't walk well, I will be covered in blood; but if I can see it openly, I will be really promising."

Xue Mei: "..."

"I'm not afraid of being named the princess now." Xi Baochen said.

Xue Mei nodded.

She smiled and couldn't help but say to Xi Baochen: "Xue Yutan must be so angry."

As soon as he said this, Xi Baochen became happy.

A smile appeared on her frowning face.

What else is more happy than suppressing Xue Yutan?

"Before, the Yongning Marquis' Mansion was still illusory. Now they all know the process of enthroning the princess. I really want to see the expressions of my father, Marquis and grandmother." Xue Mei smiled.

She didn't have long moved out and didn't care about going to the Hou's Mansion to watch the fun.

However, this matter is also very interesting.

"My grandmother is quite happy because I am a princess. According to her ideas, she must be counting on me to support Xue Yutan in the future." Xi Baochen said.

Speaking of this, she spat, "Since I was a child, my grandmother has only been partial to her brothers, and she doesn't look at me. Now she expects me to pull Xue Yutan and dream."

Xue Mei smiled.

This time, in addition to asking Xi Baochen for help, she was asking Xi Baochen about her specific wedding date.

"It's the sixth day of the tenth lunar month." Xi Baochen said.

In other words, it is less than four months' time to get married.

This time is not very fast, it is just a little hasty.

Xue Mei smiled: "I still want to buy you some good dowry, just a whole set of furniture - but the little prince said it would take at least half a year.

If this happens, I won’t be bothered. If you take these silver notes, you can take them as my box to add to you. When you come to the palace, you will be restrained everywhere."

Xi Baochen was stunned when he saw her taking out a handful of silver notes.

She hadn't seen so many, so she took them: "How many?"

"Twenty thousand taels."

Xi Baochen almost bit his tongue, and his hands were a little unsteady: "This, so much?"

"You want to be a princess, unlike others." Xue Mei said, "I'm afraid there are not many things my uncle can give you. If you don't have money to support you, you will easily be looked down upon by those noble girls."

Xi Baochen wants to return it: "There are too many, I can't ask for it!"

"I'm doing business with the little prince. This summer, the oil-paper umbrella is a big deal. I'll get a half-month investment." Xue Mei said.

Xi Baochen didn't know what to say.

Xue Mei whispered to her again: "Don't let your mother know, and don't tell the prince even when she arrives at the palace. You have hidden the money yourself, this is your foundation."

Xi Baochen bit his lip: "Big sister..."

"Don't say polite words or cry. I don't want to comfort you anymore." Xue Mei said.

Xi Baochen burst into tears and laughed.

Twenty thousand taels are really a huge sum of money. With this money, Xi Baochen's back suddenly became much more straight and he was not so pessimistic about his future.

Maybe she can make a breakthrough in the royal palace.

The Taoist priest said that as long as she can see it, she will have a good future.

"What's there to be something you can't see?" Xi Baochen stood under the eaves, looking at the scorching sun hanging in the distance, "Do you still expect him to like me?"

She gently stretched out her hand, pulled the banana leaves outside the railing, and slowly breathed out.

When Xue Mei returned to the princess's mansion, it was almost time for dinner.

Xue Chi: "I thought you wouldn't come back for a meal."

He is the only one in the flower hall.

After my fifth brother arrived at the Princess's Mansion, he no longer wanted to go to the Imperial College to study.

Xue Mei inspected him and saw his confirmation characters and could write good-looking characters, so she no longer restricted him.

He worships King Rui, and it just so happens that King Rui’s mansion has a schoolyard, and the personal soldiers have to train every day.

Xue Mei asked Xiao Jingcheng to take Xue Run over and mix in with his personal soldiers.

In the evening, Xue Run came back to bed and got up early to go to Prince Rui's Mansion. Anyway, the two mansions were only five miles apart, so they arrived soon after riding a horse.

Xiao Jingcheng has always followed Xue Mei's words.

Xue Run officially had something to do, so she came back late at night and was always sweating, so she couldn't keep up with the order for Xue Mei and Xue Chi to have dinner.

In the flower hall at home, only Xue Mei and Xue Chi have a meal.

"Is there any further news on the palace examination?" Xue Mei asked the eldest brother.

Xue Chi: "Not yet. The result has not been released, and it is kept confidential for the time being. Your Majesty has not made a final decision yet."

"The results will be released before the first day of July?"

"But it won't really delay until the first day of the New Year." Xue Chi said, "I guess these two days."

Xue Mei was also a little looking forward to it.

She witnessed history.

In other words, she changed the process and created this history artificially.

Now, she is going to see the first No. 1 pick in history with her own eyes, how can she not be excited?

She talked about this with Xue Chi, and both thought it would take several days to leave.

Unexpectedly, I came out the morning court the next day.

The results of the first exam were read by the eunuch. After reading it, the imperial list was posted on the archway next to the moat outside the imperial city.
