Chapter 120 Lan Zhi, Shen Zhi
"I heard that there are many talented people in this imperial examination, which is my great blessing, but I didn't expect that a Lanzhi would also appear in the clan, and she would be ranked first in the list. Counting the dynasties since the founding of the country, this kind of clan honor can be compared to five times.
"
Generation after generation of imperial examinations, generations of top scorers, dozens upon dozens of talented people, no matter how talented they are, nothing can compare to the wonders of one clan.
Your Majesty smiled with joy in his eyes, and the courtiers congratulated him, and then the bright-faced member of the clan walked out calmly to salute. There was no one in front of Ming Jin to block him, and he could clearly see the appearance of the elegant Mr. Lan Zhi.
Hmm... tall and mighty, with a strong back and a strong waist.
Xie Mingyue: "???"
Walking around in black clothes, wearing orchids and wearing jade, the demeanor of a gentleman, the appearance and the inside are the same... This may not be the same.
Ming Dai, who was also shocked, pinched Mingyue's waist, making her tensed up.
In fact, even Ming Jin was a little surprised. This clan member was not a person who had lived in the capital for a long time, but was a descendant of a prince from out of town. His bloodline was not close. She had never seen him before, but she didn't know he was such a person.
But this man was so promising that he suddenly caught the attention of the clan and was pushed to the front as a face.
It’s indeed quite impressive.
As a person, you can enter an official position in a serious manner, with the protection of the clan title and fame. As long as you don't have a bad idea and plot to rebel, you will be a distinguished person for a long time.
And when the king smiled and praised him and rewarded him generously, the eldest princess and other elders of the clan showed their joy and love. The eyes of the officials and women present were all green, especially those with girls in the family. They were so brave, so talented, and so heroic. As expected,
Good son-in-law!
Even Mrs. Lin's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but want to look at this person.
If they were a biological mother and daughter, Mingdai would get a headache when she saw her mother's little movements. She pulled Mingjin's sleeves and whispered: "Please tell my mother to be more steady, so that she doesn't get hurt."
It's a good idea, so you're not in a hurry to get married.
Ming Jin smiled: "That's not the case."
Mingdai was pleased that it was easier for young people to communicate with each other.
"It's better for my eldest sister and I to check it out for you later, and then it's my turn to check with my second aunt."
This man was so serious that he almost made Ming Dai angry to death, "Don't be so proud of yourself, you are older than me."
"I'm anxious too. I can help you take a look while I'm looking at it for myself. It won't damage our sisterhood."
"...."
Ming Dai was no match for Ming Jin, and she noticed that Xie Mingrong not far away seemed to be really observing the other young disciples, and she was confused.
It seemed that she had heard that her mother had commissioned her to look after him.
Mingdai's cold face after being depressed was the ultimate in coldness, which attracted the keen attention of many clan members.
They can't reach someone of Xie Mingjin's level, and they don't dare to, but they can always ask for this stunning beauty.
In fact, the Xie family girls really don't have to worry about getting married. Ming Dai is also a favorite among court ladies. Even Ming Yue is stared at by many people, but Ming Jin is the most neglected.
No, there is also Chu Lanai.
During the banquet, the most popular person was Zhao Manshu. Just because Mr. Lan Zhi was praised so much, Emperor Zhong couldn't help but asked him if he was worthy of marriage.
Mr. Lan Zhi was stunned for a moment, and before he lowered his head to look back, Emperor Zhong asked him if there was anyone he liked.
The man's bronze face frowned slightly, as if he was thinking again, but he soon came up with the result.
Still not.
Emperor Zhong was overjoyed and proposed to grant him a marriage. At this time, the queen's role came into play, jokingly asking the wives of each family if they had any good girls who were not yet married...
Yes, I have it at home!
The ladies wanted to put labels on their daughters' foreheads and sell them, but they were reserved, so they exchanged looks with each other if they were good friends. You push my daughter, I push yours, and compliment each other...
Of course, it is impossible to decide on the spot, just to leave a good impression on the master, the queen and other masters.
During this period, the person who was most likely to be mentioned was Zhao Manshu.
The queen smiled and said: Are you a good couple?
Originally, this matter was going to be done, Master Lan Zhi said nothing, but Concubine Ling interjected a sentence, which was cold but charming, and her voice was like the sound in the valley. She said that there was a special daughter in Taifu Zhao's family.
Your Majesty dotes on her and immediately asks who else has a son, so Concubine Ling mentions the son of Prince Duanqin, who is quite famous in the clan.
Ming Jin raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. In the past, the position of queen was supported by the clan and the cabinet. After all, the queen was the orthodox one.
Concubine Ling won over the courtiers from all sides who wanted to make progress, favored and provided benefits to them, and cultivated them into a foundation.
But no one thought, had her hands and feet spread to the clan?
The queen's expression suddenly turned cold, and she exchanged glances with Uncle Qin below.
If one family has a daughter and two families want to marry each other, in the end it all depends on the king's favor?
After another round of laughter, the Lord seemed to be in a difficult situation. The father of Mr. Lan Zhi seemed to have noticed it, so he took the initiative to say that his son had studied hard for many years and was an old-fashioned man who loved reading. He was also dull and could not match a beautiful lady.
Now that I have just achieved fame and have not yet contributed to the country, I am not busy getting married.
When Young Master Lan Zhi saw this, he expressed that the Crown Prince and the daughter of the Zhao family were a perfect match.
The atmosphere suddenly became peaceful.
The queen smiled, which concealed her coldness. On the contrary, Concubine Ling was calm and steady, as if neither arrogant nor impetuous, and quite elegant.
It is no wonder that such a woman can rise up against the strong favor of her descendants and support the humble family so much.
Nowadays, the Qin family is in hiding, and the Qi family behind Concubine Ling is proud, and the pattern is gradually emerging.
Your Majesty finally granted marriage to the two of them, keeping the superficial atmosphere lively and festive. Suddenly, when the eldest princess saw this, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Your Majesty's first matchmaking was so successful, but I am itchy and want to make another one."
Matchmaker."
Your Majesty respected her and asked quickly. The eldest princess was very old, but she was well-kept. Although she was old and wrinkled, her skin was very fair as far as she could raise her hand. He pointed to a person at the table.
"He is not yet our Master Shen, who is well-known in Zhao Kingdom. He is not young at all. He has a long history of fame and has established a great career. He is also a rare young pillar in our Zhao Kingdom. But, I absolutely cannot look down on him as he was back then.
He is like a grandpa, he only cares about serving the country, he marries his wife very late, and almost misses important events."
Dazai-sama was happy and couldn't help but say after hearing this, "Your Highness, we have already lived half our lives, how can you still bury me? You can just bury me, but you still despise my incompetent grandson."
The eldest princess slapped her leg and laughed: "It seems that you also know that this kid Shen Zhi is incompetent!"
Your Majesty couldn't help but laugh, and called Su Bingwan, who was looking helpless during the banquet, "Please be careful, sir, look at this, you have both worried my aunt and annoyed your grandfather. Do you know your guilt?"
Su Bingwan walked out of the room, bowed and apologized, and said: "I understand that I have sinned. I'm sorry to bother you two elders."
Such a person, Zhao Manshu, who had just been promised a son, couldn't help but look at him sideways.
In fact, this man was his father's first choice, but unfortunately he was not good enough, so he settled for the second best.
Your Majesty smiled, "Since ancient times, it has been the rule for a great gentleman to recognize his fault and accept the punishment, but it is the best policy to be able to recognize his mistakes and correct them, and reverse his disadvantages. Do you know what to do?"
The so-called Lan Zhi should actually be used on this person. Su Bingwan's jade-like face showed a little bitterness, with a look of helplessness and forbearance. Finally, she sighed and bent over, "I should get married as soon as possible so that my elders don't have to worry about her."
Ming Jin felt that something was wrong at night, why was she focusing on the marriage? She looked at Xie Yuan calmly, and found that the latter also glanced at her.
