Among the Qiao family, Xu Cheng also passed the exam, but he was among the last few and did not enter the palace today.

"Why are you here so late?" Zhou Rong asked.

The conflict with the Qiao family would not be brought to Beijing, so after the imperial examination was over and Lu Wan's matter was resolved, Zhou Rong met Qiao Sixing and others.

"I was pestered for a while!" Yao Qian said with a bitter smile.

After the siblings moved out, he and Li Yong both liked to discuss things with Zhou Rong. Thanks to this, he got a good ranking in the imperial examination.

Because of this, people who had given up on them came back jealously.

"Oh!" the couple understood.

This is because Yao Qi'an won the imperial examination, and he thought he had a good future, so he wanted to win over him.

But no one is a fool, so how could Yao Qian agree?

"You should be calm. We heard a lot of comments about you all the way here," Li Yong was familiar with the couple, so he reminded them directly without any scruples.

Xi Yao was curious: "What are people talking about us?"

They didn't provoke anyone, so why are they talking about them?

"Everyone seems to be guessing about your identity and wondering if you are the daughter of Marquis Anding!" Li Yong reminded her with something in her words.

"Ha!" Xi Yao sneered, "I'm afraid someone did it on purpose!"

This is an attempt to use public opinion to force her.

"Why are these people so weird? Haven't you and Zhou Rong been engaged since childhood? Why do you say that your wife is the daughter of Marquis Anding?" Yao Qian didn't know anything, but he knew Zhou Rong's engagement, which was Qixia.

Everyone who knew Zhou Rong in the city had felt sorry for him.

Xi Yao said with a half-smile, "Maybe it's paranoia!"

She didn't care before, but now she cares. She doesn't think it's because of her conscience.

I’m afraid there’s something wrong with this!

The people in the Anding Hou Mansion don't know everything about her, so they are targeting Zhou Rong.

Are they still thinking of helping Lu Wan?

This is really a sign of love for my daughter!

"Why are they so insistent on something so clear?" Qiao Sixing said a little worriedly: "The Hou Mansion is not easy to mess with!"

There was Lu Wan before, but now there is Lu Ke. This time Zhou Rong and his wife have a grudge against them.

"After today, they should know that I am not Lu Ke!" Xi Yao said thoughtfully, with an evil tone in his tone.

Li Yong glanced at Zhou Rong doubtfully, and when he nodded slightly, he knew that it was what they had agreed upon.

Xi Yao doesn’t want his previous identity!

People who came through the imperial examination in the past have more or less found their own support. Only Zhou Rong and a few others chatted and laughed by themselves and did not associate with any influence in the capital, which was more eye-catching.

Everyone is eager to take advantage of this new force and want to take advantage of it.

When they sat down, Xi Yao and Zhou Rong were separated.

Xi Yao originally didn't know where she should sit, but fortunately the empress was considerate and sent someone to inform her, so she knew where she should sit.

If an ordinary person came to tell her, she would definitely be suspicious.

But if people know her identity, it must have been arranged by the Queen.

At banquets in the palace, people are usually seated according to their status.

If there are any special cases, they will be arranged in advance to avoid mistakes.

Of course, everyone sitting down will find that Zhou Rong and Xi Yao are sitting separately, but they are both in the front position. Even Xi Yao's identity is before Mu's, while Zhou Rong's position is even behind Mu Pengfei.
