"My dear Su Wuhu, thank you Lord for your kindness!"
Su Laowu knelt down and bowed.
Emperor Tianxi looked at the new top scholar below with satisfaction, and suddenly thought of his eldest daughter, Princess Hua Ning.
If the prince of Western Qin had not come to ask for Ning'er's hand in marriage and recruited the fifth son of the Su family as his son-in-law, it would have been a good story...
Emperor Tianxi felt a little regretful in his heart.
In short, Princess Hua Ning was the eldest daughter of Emperor Tianxi, and she had been disfigured due to illness and was in a rough situation. Emperor Tianxi had always felt sorry for this daughter.
However, as an emperor, his first priority is the country, the country, and the country.
First the king, then the father.
"Su Aiqing, I hope you will implement great strategies in the future, serve the country and the people, and don't live up to my expectations." Emperor Tianxi said in a majestic voice: "Save your life."
"Su Wuhu will definitely live up to the emperor's expectations!"
After Su Lao said the five words sonorously, he knelt on the ground and opened his mouth again.
He really wanted to propose marriage to the emperor on the spot and ask to marry Princess Hua Ning.
However, thinking of what his sister told him and the vague rumors he heard, his heart sank, and he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
The time has not come yet, if we propose it now, the emperor will definitely not approve it, and it may even be self-defeating.
Su Laowu tried hard to suppress the urgency in his heart.
For a moment, the joy of being selected as the number one scholar faded away.
**
"Master...Master...the fifth young master is the number one scholar..."
As shouts and shouts rang out, the entire princess's mansion was boiling.
Old man Su stood up suddenly and rushed out with surprise on his face.
Outside the door, the wind stopped and the rain stopped.
A beautiful rainbow hangs diagonally in the sky.
It shows the end of this spring rain.
Old man Su looked at the boy who was running over and asked excitedly: "Really? Lao Wu really won the top prize?"
The boy's body was wet, but he couldn't hide the excitement on his face.
"Really! Master, the fifth young master is right behind!"
After the boy finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed back.
A group of Tsing Yi scholars were striding towards them.
The person at the front is none other than the high-spirited top scholar in the new science—Su Laowu.
On Su Laowu's forehead, there was a lock of hair that was wet by the rain.
A few tiny water drops on it reflect the rainbow's glow.
It makes the whole person more majestic and handsome.
Su Laowu walked closer, lifted up his robe, and knelt down on the bluestone floor.
"My son thanks his father and mother for their many years of teaching and nurturing." Su Laowu said loudly with red eyes: "Fortunately, my son has lived up to the expectations of his father and mother, and was selected as the number one scholar by the emperor on the spot!"
Old Man Su's eyes were also red.
Old Mrs. Su's nose became sore and tears fell down.
Number one scholar!
You know, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, how many champions have there been?
This is going to go down in history!
Old Man Su took a deep breath and suppressed the feeling of crying.
Then, he put his hands on his hips, raised his head and laughed.
"Hahaha... OK! My son, Su Zhengyang, is the number one scholar in high school... Hahaha..."
Old man Su laughed so hard!
If I change the words, it will be me, Hu Hansan, back again!
Mrs. Su: "..."
The tears couldn't stop falling.
"Congratulations to fifth brother for winning three yuan in a row!"
Tangbao giggled and ran over to help Fifth Brother get up.
"Lao Wu, well done!" Su Lao San stepped forward, patted Su Lao Wu on the shoulder, and said loudly: "As expected of my brother!"
Su Laowu gave Su Laosan a solemn salute and said, "Thank you, third brother, for your help over the years. I will never forget it."
After saying that, he bowed deeply to the sugar baby.
"Thank you sister!"
Over the years, my sister has been my reassurance.
Without my sister, my journey would not have been so smooth.
Su Laowu knew in his heart that the whole family's contribution to him was immeasurable.
Brother Su, Brother Su, and Brother Su, who were willing to marry into the Li family in order to provide for his education, all placed huge hopes on him.
Fortunately, he lived up to this expectation.
Tangbao smiled and quickly returned Su Lao's 5-day gift.
"Fifth brother, this is impossible, you are now the number one scholar..."
"Why can't I do it? I can!" Old Man Su's true nature as a daughter-slave was revealed immediately, and he loudly supported his little girl, "You can fully bear this gift from your fifth brother!"
"That's what dad said." After Su Laowu finished speaking, he bowed solemnly to the sugar baby again.
Sugar baby: "..."
Well, if she returns the favor again, her fifth brother will probably make up for it with another gift.
The sugar baby reluctantly accepted the gift from his fifth brother.
Old Su stepped forward.
"Lao Wu, not bad!" Mr. Su's face was flushed, he patted Su Lao Wu's shoulder and said loudly and proudly: "As expected of my son... Hahaha..."
Before Old Man Su could finish his words, he burst into laughter again.
Old Mrs. Su couldn't laugh or cry.
The servants in the yard all bowed to congratulate him.
"Congratulations to the Fifth Young Master for being the top pick in high school!"
"Congratulations, sir!"
"Congratulations ma'am!"
"Congratulations, Princess..."
For a time, the entire courtyard was filled with joyful congratulations.
Tangbao waved his little hand and said loudly: "Rewards! Everyone will be rewarded with three months' worth of money!"
"Thank you, Princess!"
As soon as Tangbao finished speaking, everyone expressed their surprise and thanked him loudly.
The atmosphere in the princess's mansion became even more festive.
"My little boss, Liu is lucky enough to live up to his fate and be granted a Jinshi status by the emperor..."
"My little boss, Zhang will also be granted Jinshi status by the emperor..."
"Little boss..."
Several candidates from Ford Academy who had taken the palace examination came forward one after another to report the good news to Sugar Baby.
Zhou Juren and other candidates who had failed in the Spring Examination had been escorted back to Fengqi County by Lin Enyi.
Naturally, Su Laoer finished his errands and went back with Lin Enyi.
In this way, it would be nice to have someone to take care of you on the way.
Therefore, the ones left now are all on the list.
Now they have all been granted Jinshi status by the emperor.
Although these people are now considered to be officials, they are still used to calling Tang Bao, the little princess, "little boss."
The sugar baby is naturally very happy.
"Congratulations to all the new scholars." Tangbao smiled and congratulated.
Several newly minted Jinshi masters were all smiling, as if they had been inspired by Old Man Su. They laughed and said in unison: "Same joy, same joy..."
Old Man Su looked at Su Lao San with joy, waved his hands boldly, and said loudly: "Hurry up! Lao San, where are the firecrackers you bought? Hurry up and have them moved out, go to the gate, light them all, and set them off!"
"Okay! Dad!"
Su Laosan agreed loudly and asked someone to carry the box containing the firecrackers.
Soon, the sound of "cracking" firecrackers rang out in front of the gate of the Princess's Mansion.
Following this, the news that Princess Fudou's brother, the direct bloodline of the Su family that had been a century-old family - Su Wuhu of the Su family, was appointed as the number one scholar in the Emperor's Golden Palace, also quickly
