Brother You'er's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes shone brightly.
A Luo, who met Brother You's eyes, felt a strange joy in her heart at this moment.
After being separated for more than half a year, Brother You's face was still familiar, but it seemed to have a strange aura. Being stared at by him like this, her heart beat faster.
Xie Mingxi glanced at A Luo from the corner of her eye and coughed lightly.
Ah Luo's cheeks were slightly warm, she calmed down, and said with a sweet smile: "I am very happy to hear that some of you passed the exam in the autumn. I hope that next spring, you can also pass the exam in one fell swoop."
Brother You suppressed his blossoming mood and responded with a smile: "We are also looking forward to this."
Xie Mingxi said with a smile: "Your father won the top prize when he was eighteen years old. You will be sixteen next year, and you will be younger than your father back then."
If you can win the first prize in one fell swoop and win three prizes in a row, you will be able to leave your name in the history of Qi Dynasty.
Brother You was humble by nature and responded respectfully when he heard the words: "I hope I won't disappoint you." How could Xie Mingxi not hear the hope hidden in his words?
Xie Mingxi smiled meaningfully and looked at Brother Yu and Brother Qin.
Yu Ge'er and Qin Ge'er entered the palace with great expectations, but did not see the figure of their sweetheart, so they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. They also lost interest in talking.
Xie Mingxi asked a question, and the two brothers answered respectfully.
Fortunately, the lively and talkative Chen Xiaobao'er is here, and the atmosphere will never become cold: "Sister Ah Luo, the three of them are fine in spring, but I can't. Qiuwei was the last in the exam. Such good luck, probably
This time. My father asked me to study hard for three years and try to pass the next subject."
Chen Xiaobao'er pretended to sigh while looking at Xie Mingxi who was smiling on her lips. She blinked and tried her best to hint: "Uncle Zhao said, if you don't pass the Jinshi exam, don't go to the Zhao family to propose marriage. Poor sister Qing, you have to wait for me for another three years."
.”
Those little thoughts are all displayed on his face. It's impossible to pretend not to notice it.
Xie Mingxi smiled and said: "What if you still fail the exam in the next subject, will the marriage have to be postponed forever? By then, Sister Qing will be an old girl."
"How could I wait for so long?" Chen Xiaobaoer blurted out.
As soon as this was said, everyone laughed again.
Chen Xiaobaoer was not ashamed to be teased by everyone, and looked at Xie Mingxi eagerly: "I came to the palace today just to beg the Queen to help me and Sister Qing to be a matchmaker. If the Queen comes forward, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Yan will definitely agree to the marriage.
, you won’t make things difficult for me anymore.”
In fact, Chen Xiaobao'er and Sister Qing's marriage had been tacitly approved for a long time, and they just had to make it clear.
However, Chen Xiaobaoer felt uneasy without a formal engagement!
Xie Mingxi held back her laughter and nodded slightly: "That's fine, I will agree to your request."
Chen Xiaobaoer was overjoyed and knelt down neatly and kowtowed three times: "I would like to thank you first."
Brother Yu and Brother Qin looked hot and envious. However, the two brothers were not as thick-skinned as Chen Xiaobaoer.
Furthermore, they did not have the same luck as Little Bao'er. They had long been favored by their future father-in-law and mother-in-law. They had long been regarded as the sons-in-law of the Zhao family. They often went in and out of Zhao's house, and everyone in front of them and behind them called her sister incessantly.
The two of them entered the palace, but they didn't even see Sister Rong and Sister Fu yet!
It’s really annoying to compare people to each other!
The two of them were not disappointed for long.
Soon, Xianghui came in with a smile and reported: "Queen Qi, Princess Duanrong and Princess Duanyi are here."
Brother Yu and Brother Qin were refreshed at the same time, and their eyes almost glowed.
Xie Mingxi saw this and couldn't help but secretly laugh.
It's not a cool autumn day here, it's clearly a warm spring day, with a spring breeze on your face!
Sister Rong and Sister Fu walked in together and bowed together.
Sister Rong has a graceful figure, gentle temperament and beautiful face. Sister Fu has an elegant temperament, beautiful appearance and slim figure. Both girls are very outstanding and have their own charm.
When everyone meets, it is indispensable to say hello.
Brother Yu and Brother Qin wiped away the boredom just now. In front of everyone, it was impossible to say anything in private. It would be okay to take advantage of the opportunity of greetings to quietly take a few more glances at the sweetheart.
…
Thanking the Queen for the lunch, the young men had lunch in the Jiaofang Hall and then left the palace.
The boys grew up and ate separately with a group of girls. Occasionally they would flirt with each other and wanted to talk alone, but it was impossible. Brother You couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
At this moment, Xie Mingxi's voice came to my ears: "A Luo, please escort Brother You and the four of them out of the palace."
A Luo smiled and responded.
Brother You'er's heart suddenly felt sweet.
There is one more person on the list of envy and hatred for Brother Yu and Brother Qin.
The marriage between Chen Xiaobao'er and Sister Qing is certain. Considering the emperor's favor for Brother You, there is a high probability that he will call Brother You as his consort.
The two brothers are pitiful. They are still in the stage of unrequited love. I don’t know what Sister Rong’s son Fu’s feelings are, nor whether the future mother-in-law will agree to the marriage...
What a miserable pair of brothers!
With a smile on her lips, A Luo escorted Brother You and others out of Jiaofang Hall.
Although Chen Xiaobaoer usually likes to talk, he was very obedient at this time. He took the Li brothers' hands and deliberately speeded up his pace so that Brother You and A Luo could have a chance to whisper a few words.
Brother You finally waited for the opportunity and whispered quietly: "Sister Aluo, how are you doing this year?"
A Luo tilted her head slightly, pursed her lips and smiled at Brother You, also lowering her voice: "I am serving the pen and ink in the Yiqing Palace, and I have learned a lot from my father, the queen and my mother, and I have benefited a lot."
Brother You's eyes were gentle, and his voice was even softer: "That's good. I've been worried about you a lot."
A Luo raised her eyebrows confidently: "Don't worry. Everything is going well. Next year at the most, I will enter the Jinluan Palace to listen to politics."
Brother You: "..."
The bright sunlight fell on the corners of the girl's eyes and eyebrows, dancing with dazzling light.
Everything in front of him became the background, and in his eyes, there was only the confident smile of the girl.
Brother You was so ecstatic that he stared at it dreamily, forgetting to take steps for a moment.
A'luo also stopped, turned to look at Brother You, and asked softly: "Brother You, do you dare to marry me like this?"
I want to enter the court and listen to the government, I want to be the crown prince, and in the future, I will also be the empress of Da Qi.
Do you still have the courage to be my husband?
Brother You looked in disbelief at A Luo, who had reddish cheeks and clear eyes. His heartbeat was like a drum, heat was rushing in his chest, and he was so filled with joy and excitement that he almost exploded.
He couldn't say a word, he just nodded.
Of course I dare.
Of course you have courage.
From the day I grew up and became a little girl, I only have you in my eyes and my heart. You are the only woman I want to marry.
If you want to be the empress, I will be your emperor husband.
