Chapter 1540: There are bound to be pitfalls in catching a son-in-law under the ranking (20)
So, when Mu Zhen went to the examination room, Xinyue sent her capable people to the provincial capital where Shen Runing was located to make arrangements for the follow-up plan.
With the bonus of learning talent and luck talent, Mu Zhen was like a divine help in the examination room.
Not only was he assigned to the best room, even the exam question happened to be an article he had reviewed just yesterday.
The same good luck also happened in the imperial examination??
Originally, the emperor was thinking of the number one scholar, Tanhua Lang, and wanted to select the handsome Mu Zhen as Tanhua.
Who would have thought that just when the emperor was about to leave, a magpie suddenly flew in from outside the store, stood on Mu Zhen's paper, and kept chirping at the emperor.
The emperor was wondering why magpies appeared in the palace, but someone from the harem came to report that Concubine Shu had given birth to a pair of twins, a dragon and a phoenix, which foreshadowed auspicious veils.
After several good things happened in succession, the Emperor was delighted and immediately appointed Mu Zhen as the top scholar in the Golden Science.
It is strange to say that as soon as the emperor put down his pen, the magpie flew out of the door of the hall quickly as if it had a spiritual spirit and was no longer seen.
After Mu Zhen became the number one scholar, the happiest person was Princess Xinyue.
As a titled princess, Xinyue Hui agreed to marry Mu Zhen because she was completely carried away by love.
With her background, even being a princess is more than enough.
Therefore, if Mu Zhen cannot even get the first prize, her face will be disgraced even if she gets married.
Therefore, on the day Mu Zhen rode through the streets, Xinyue explained her feelings to her mother and concubine.
As soon as these words came out, it was not easy for the earth dragon to stand up in Prince Ning's Mansion.
You know, the reason why Prince Ning did not get Xinyue engaged was because he had his own considerations.
Xinyue has been different from ordinary girls since she was a child. She is smart, witty, has her own opinions, and is decisive in killing.
Therefore, Prince Ning has always had high hopes for her.
As Xinyue gradually grew up, more and more princes showed their willingness to get married.
Fortunately, Xinyue was still young, and Prince Ning had originally planned to wait until the situation became more stable before marrying his daughter to the prince who had the best chance of winning the throne.
In order to cultivate his daughter's mind and vision, King Ning agreed to Xinyue's request and allowed her to dress up as a man and travel.
But who would have thought that it was during this trip that Xinyue met Mu Zhen.
When he sent people over and over again but failed to get Xinyue back, Prince Ning had already realized that something was not right.
Now that he heard Xinyue's confession, there was nothing unclear about Prince Ning.
This clearly shows that when my cabbage was traveling, it was bitten by the pigs outside!
Prince Ning was furious and even threatened to be at odds with Mu Zhen, but he was finally calmed down by Xinyue.
The father and daughter talked for a long time in the study. When they came out, although they still felt that their family had suffered a great loss, Prince Ning finally recognized Mu Zhen, the number one son-in-law, by pinching his nose.
Knowing that her son was about to marry the princess, Mrs. Mu respectfully led the matchmaker to propose marriage.
Even though Prince Ning and his wife didn't look good the whole time, Mrs. Mu still endured it silently.
At this time, Mrs. Mu was like a well-educated and sensible wife, no longer as harsh as she was when she was working with Shen Runing.
Prince Ning and his wife were a little more satisfied with this.
After the marriage was agreed upon, Xinyue sent a few people to return home with Mrs. Mu and her party, planning to terminate the engagement with the Shen family before Mu Zhen returned.
Originally Xinyue just wanted to divorce Shen Runing once and for all, and
Let the other party suffer a loss and never dare to mention the matter of marrying Mu Zhen again.
As we all know, after learning Xinyue's plan, the first thing Mu Zhen and Mu Lao Niang thought of was the Shen family's huge wealth, so they got tattooed and robbed the family property.
Regarding Mrs. Mu's change of plan, her subordinates told Xinyue immediately.
As a true noblewoman, Xinyue looked down upon Mrs. Mu's greed for money, and couldn't understand why a vulgar village woman like Mrs. Mu could give birth to such a handsome gentleman as Mu Zhen.
But after all, she was her future mother-in-law, so Xinyue could only suppress the impatience in her heart and told her subordinates not to bother her about trivial matters like this, but to just listen to Mrs. Mu.
Just because of Xinyue's casual words, the Shen family completely changed their surname to Mu.
Although she acquiesced in Mrs. Mu's behavior, out of disgust, Xinyue's favorability towards Mu Zhen dropped by 10 in an instant, scaring Mu Zhen so much that he tried to think of ways to please her. .??.
Since Xinyue had always reserved her feelings for Mu Zhen, it was not until the wedding night between Mu Zhen and Xinyue that Xinyue's favorability level was finally filled up.
This time, Mu Zhen also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the favorability level is maxed out, it will never drop again.
Xinyue is thoughtful and always habitually considers gains and losses first when doing things.
Although Xinyue fell in love with him, Mu Zhen also knew that before the favorability level was reached, Xinyue might stab him back at any time because of something related to the interests of Prince Ning's palace.
But despite this, Mu Zhen was still unwilling to let go of Xinyue.
After all, this is the woman with the highest status that he can come into contact with.
Whether his future career will be smooth sailing or not depends entirely on Xinyue and the Prince Ning's Mansion.
> Now that Xinyue's favorability level has been maxed out, it means that Xinyue is completely unguarded against him and will plan for him wholeheartedly in the future.
For Mu Zhen, this was simply a matter of great joy.
After the favorability level is full, Xinyue will no longer think about killing him. Not only is his life guaranteed, but also with Xinyue's talent bonus.
Thinking of Xinyue's talent that indicated power, Mu Zhen began to test Xinyue in a roundabout way.
Rao Xinyue is a very vigilant woman, and she can't stand the constant rubbing from people around her.
Finally, Mu Zhen got Xinyue's gift of power.
At that moment, Mu Zhen felt like a fire was burning all over his body, making him feel depressed and restless.
But after the burning sensation dissipated, Mu Zhen's whole temperament changed dramatically.
Originally, he just looked like a handsome young man raised by a noble family, but now, he has an aura that cannot be ignored, making people unconsciously want to trust him and move closer to him.
Mu Zhen also discovered the benefits of Xinyue's talent. He could easily see the meaning of a simple glance among the ministers, and he could also discover details about everyone that were easily overlooked.
Even when communicating with others, Mu Zhen can quickly judge the other person's meaning and next move.
This kind of talent makes him truly invincible in the officialdom.
But Mu Zhen felt even more sad and angry. Why do so many useful talents exist in some women? What a waste of resources!
Moreover, Mu Zhen has recently added a new thought. He is optimistic about the talent of a woman, but he does not dare to take action.
That person is the emperor's favorite princess, and her talent is simple and crude to please the emperor!
