The three brothers Da Pan, Er Pan and Zhuang Zhuang stood with their hands down, their bodies straight and full of energy.
"Chengguang, Chengzong, Chengyao, are they taken from the meaning of Guangzong Yaozu?" the queen asked warmly.
As the eldest brother, Da Pan said in an orderly manner after hearing this: "That's exactly what I said to the queen. My father hopes that we brothers can honor our ancestors and serve the imperial court."
The Empress nodded approvingly and said, "Have you ever gotten engaged?"
Da Pan: "..."
His face turned red.
The eldest lady of the General's Mansion felt a little moved in her heart.
My sister-in-law asked this question. Could it be that she wanted to marry this child?
The eldest lady thought of her daughter Yang Ran.
Then, he shook his head secretly.
There is a difference in seniority.
"No, never." Da Pan stuttered a little and said with a red face.
Er Pan was more casual. He touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Empress, my fifth uncle also asked to marry Her Highness the Princess after he won the top prize. I and my eldest brother are just children now, and they are far away from getting engaged...
…hey-hey……"
"They are indeed ambitious children." The Queen Empress said with a smile: "Do you brothers also want to be the number one scholar in high school in the future and then get married?"
When Da Pan and Er Pan heard this, they shook their heads in unison.
The idea has never occurred to them.
Never dreamed of it.
They know very well whether they are good at studying or not.
The Queen was startled when she saw Da Pan and Er Pan shaking their heads so simply.
She originally thought that this age was the time for young people to be wild and frivolous. Coupled with the fact that her uncle won the first prize, she was full of ambitions and regarded the matter of engagement and marriage as something that would only be considered after gaining fame.
Clinker, my brother actually shook his head so quickly.
"Empress, the young man and the eldest brother, let alone being the first scholar, even if they want to become the first scholar and start a family, they will never be able to find a wife in this life." Er Pan said without any shame.
The Queen: "..."
I can't help but laugh and laugh.
The meaning of his words at one moment was that he wanted to learn from his uncle, but the next moment, he said such words that destroyed his prestige.
However, there was a hint of approval in the eyes looking at Da Pan and Er Pan.
I secretly thought to myself that these two children from the Su family are good children with straightforward temperaments and down-to-earth attitude.
If it had been other officials' children, they would have said some shameless words in front of a queen like herself.
The rarest thing in this world is someone who can see himself clearly and has self-awareness.
The Empress would not admit that she unconsciously put on a filter when looking at the children of the Su family because of their sugar babies.
After hearing Er Pan's words, Mrs. Su couldn't help but laugh or cry.
How can you tell such a truth in front of the Queen?
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. My grandson has always spoken freely and casually," Mrs. Su said.
The Empress shook her head and said with a smile: "I think this child speaks honestly and is a good child with a clear mind."
"I would like to ask how many number one scholars have been produced in the world throughout the ages? How many Jin scholars have been produced?"
"There are many scholars who have been taking exams all their lives and never graduated from high school."
"If everyone thinks about getting married after high school, there will be too many scholars in the world who will never be able to find a wife."
As soon as the Queen Mother finished speaking, Princess Ning and the other officials and family members in the pavilion couldn't help but smile and nod in agreement.
Naturally, it is not known whether that is what I really think in my heart.
However, some ladies who wanted to marry their legitimate daughters into the Su family hesitated.
The two grandsons of the Su family are good-looking, but if they have no ambition, wouldn't it be too unfair to their daughter?
There were some who were hesitant, but naturally there were also those who, like the Queen, were increasingly satisfied.
"What the Empress said is absolutely true. There are so many people in the world, and every spring is just a high school with only two to three hundred people." Someone said with a smile.
"That's exactly what happened. I think that the third young master of the White House, who was praised by everyone for his outstanding talent and learning, failed in the end..."
As soon as the lady finished speaking, the atmosphere couldn't help but become silent.
When the second lady of the Bai family heard this, she didn't feel slapped in the face. She was just very sorry that the eldest lady did not come to the banquet and could not hear these words.
The Queen Mother will not participate in such topics due to the Queen Mother's face.
What's more, she also heard that the third young master of the Bai family was about to marry the sugar baby's god-sister.
However, Tangbao and Mrs. Su were a little surprised that they didn't say anything after hearing what the lady said.
In fact, Mrs. Su wanted to speak up and save face for the third young master of the Bai family.
However, the little girl looked at her and quietly shook her head.
Old Mrs. Su was puzzled, but she closed her mouth.
The Empress did not ignore the interaction between Sugar Baby and Mrs. Su, and a flash of thought flashed across her eyes.
She originally thought that whether it was because of the Queen Mother or the sugar baby, when Xia Siya got married, she would reward Xia Siya with a piece of jewelry to add some honor to her, but now it seems that there cannot be any inside story.
The Empress looked at the young scholar Su Chengyao again.
"Your two brothers have fallen victim to childbirth, have you ever thought about when it will end?" the queen asked.
"Replying to your Majesty, if Master Yu agrees, the student would like to try it out in two years." Su Chengyao said with a serious expression on his face.
After two years of hearing this, the officials and wives around them subconsciously thought that what Su Chengyao said was that he was going to take part in the childbirth examination.
Many people can't help but think that it seems that this child of the Su family is also mediocre.
In this way, Su Laowu is outstanding.
The Empress noticed the difference in the young scholar Su Chengyao's self-proclaimed title.
"You studied under Yu Zhuangyuan and were classmates with the third prince?" the Queen asked.
She had heard that when her son was in Daliushu Village, he and Tangbao's little nephew were taught by Yu Zhilan at the same time.
"In reply to the Queen, that's right." Su Chengyao straightened his back and replied respectfully: "The student has been a classmate of the third prince for many years, and both studied under Master Yu."
"It took me two years to study under Yu Zhuangyuan before taking the Tongsheng Examination?" someone blurted out.
This is too stupid!
This sentence was not spoken, but it was conveyed in the tone.
Tangbao looked at the lady and said in a crisp voice: "I'm afraid this lady has misunderstood. My nephew was selected as a scholar last year. When he said he will end up in two years, he meant participating in Qiu Wei."
Su Laowu also said: "When Chengyao was admitted as a scholar last year, he was four years younger than when Su passed the examination that year."
When Su Laowu said this, he turned to look at his nervous nephew.
The gentle and elegant face showed a proud expression.
He added: "Compared to this nephew, Su, my uncle, feels ashamed!"
