Two days passed, and Xiang Mingli was beaten so badly that he could still hear howling outside the second-bedroom courtyard. The old lady felt angry, but she did not dare to go to Yuehua Xiaozhu.
Mainly because she was afraid that Si Yan would not be able to go to Loushan, the old lady received the student badge from Loushan Academy in the afternoon of the next day, and she was so happy that she no longer suffered from any illness.
Xiang Mingli and Wang were very happy to receive their student badges. Those who can go to Loushan Academy will become high officials in the future, and the women they marry are all from high-ranking families, even relatives of the emperor.
The old lady immediately decided that if the child could go to Loushan, he would have to entertain guests.
The General's Mansion became lively, and on the same day, I sent messages to the residence that was close to the General's Mansion and to the relatives of the Xiang family.
Xiang Siyan was even more arrogant. He went out to spread the word that Loushan Academy accepted him as a student, even though the prince missed the entrance exam and the academy didn't accept him. He didn't even need to take the exam and entered the academy directly.
The capital is a place where good and bad people are mixed, and such words soon spread among the powerful. Women in the nobles' backyards have never been short of comparison and vanity.
Some family members whose children had failed the examination felt resentful towards the General's Palace after hearing this, and even turned a deaf ear to their master. Loushan Academy violated the rules set by the late emperor and accepted students indiscriminately.
Rumors spread in an instant, and the direction of the trend became more and more wrong——
Early that morning, Xiang Minghou was summoned into the palace by the emperor. Seeing the strange look in the eyes of the eunuch who announced the decree, Ye Qianning felt that something was wrong.
After learning about what was rumored on the street, even a calm person was so angry that his heart ached, but if he could really do something, he would not stop until he invalidated his father.
If the rumors continue, won't the General's Mansion be pushed to the forefront?
Ye Qianning caught a few bugs and birds, and also called Huang Pizi, a member of the big family in the general's mansion: "Call all the animals you can and go to each mansion to find out the news. There are also those children at home who have not passed the exam."
Loushan Mansion, I want the secrets of their family, the more detailed the better."
"Okay, just take a look. It will be done for you within two days. Besides, we haven't visited relatives for a long time. I would like to say hello and help you inquire."
"Do you want me to get you some chickens?" Ye Qianning asked.
Huang Pizi was frustrated with his little hands, thinking that asking for chickens would make people doubt their friendship with the dolls.
"We are friends..."
"I asked the kitchen to prepare a dozen of them. If there are not enough, I will buy them for you later."
"Okay." Huang Pizi's eyes lit up.
Ye Qianning felt sorry for Brother Chicken, but he didn't do anything. All things are inherently interdependent.
After experiencing these rumors, she felt that from now on she would have better control over the affairs of the powerful families in the capital. If anyone dared to expose the general's house, she would expose the secrets of anyone's family.
If anyone dares to play with Dad, she will make them infamy forever.
Ye Qianning was arranging good things when he heard the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers coming from outside. He frowned. He couldn't just deal with other things in the house, he also had to clean up his own house.
The gate of the General's Mansion was bustling with activity. There were more than a dozen firecrackers set off. In addition to the relatives of the family, several noble ladies came to congratulate him.
The old lady's neck was still wrapped in gauze, and she was smiling from ear to ear.
Xiang Mingli was beaten so hard that he couldn't get up, so naturally he didn't show up. It was Wang who led Xiang Siyan and Pearl to greet the guests at the door.
"Everyone, please come inside, please come inside."
"Congratulations, the young ladies in the mansion have all gone to Loushan Academy. Madam Xiang is so lucky."
