Chapter 442 Today, he and His Majesty got married!
Chu Xingchen visited the Feng'an City examination room in person and was very satisfied with the fiercely competitive environment.
The provincial examination is the same as before. There are three examinations in total, on the ninth, 12th and 15th of August.
After three exams, everyone has to shed a layer of skin.
The only woman who participated in the exam fainted immediately after passing the exam, but she passed the final score.
This time, everyone was shocked and completely sounded the alarm.
The Provincial Examination is no different than the Tongsheng Examination. It is several times more difficult and many people have been passed over.
But this woman just passed the exam.
When Chu Xingchen heard the news, he was very pleased and gave him the same choice.
You can continue to take the exam, or you can choose to be awarded an officer. Although Chu Xingchen is not pregnant this time, no one dares to object fiercely. They have all passed the exam. Why don't you give it to a woman? Do you look down on women?
The queen is a woman.
Different from Xu Dandan’s previous female officers, this time, it is starting to be serious about having female officers.
Although the woman did not accept the appointment because she had to go back to Taixue to continue her studies and take the exam next year to become a Jinshi, it was a foregone conclusion that women could take the imperial examination.
This incident had a great impact. Many women with ideal pursuits saw hope, and it affected many women invisibly.
It was like a light was lit, guiding the woman bit by bit, slowly embarking on a new path.
Although this road was not easy to follow, they finally no longer had the only way to have children.
When Chu Xingchen came to Dachu, he had successfully taken the first step in his desire to truly change the status of women.
She waited for the day when there would be a woman in the court, and she hoped more and more that women's status would no longer be falsely high.
Chu Xingchen's wish was unexpectedly realized by Zhong Shengwan, who grew up in a brothel and grew up from the lowest rung.
She was quite conscious before and never took the initiative to contact Chu Xingchen, but this time she took the initiative to ask Zhou Buyan to bring the letter for her.
I asked her, with her status, if she wanted to take part in the imperial examination in the future, would that be okay?
She just couldn't help but ask and didn't dare to hold out hope. She didn't expect the letter before sending it. That night Zhou Buyan brought a reply from Chu Xingchen, telling her definitely that it was okay.
As long as she wants it, as long as she has the ability.
Zhong Shengwan, who just likes to read, was finally moved when she saw the reply written by Chu Xingchen himself.
"Brother, I seem to know why you like her so much."
There really are such people in this world.
It seems that her chance to truly change her destiny has finally arrived.
Zhong Shengwan held Xiao Ming's legs and dragged Xiao Ming over, who was sitting on the ground playing a rattle by himself, "Xiao Ming, you also need to study in the future."
"Brother, I will study hard and take the imperial examination to give Xiao Ming a clean identity."
Zhou Buyan's eyes fell on Xiao Ming, and he nodded, "Well, I'm leaving."
He left a basket of Xiao Ming's favorite fruits and turned to leave. Zhong Shengwan looked at his back and said, "Brother, you will have children, and so will your sister-in-law. Don't be too sad."
His Majesty is not here, so let her boldly call her sister-in-law.
Zhou Buyan paused without saying anything and left directly.
Some tangible and intangible changes are taking place in Dachu.
It's autumn, Dachu is bustling with excitement, and the newspapers are even more lively.
This excitement diluted the gloom of Chu Xingchen's miscarriage and loss of the crown prince.
It also kept Chu Xingchen busy, slowly and truly getting over the pain of losing Little Ice Cube.
Although occasionally I still dream of small ice cubes in my sleep, I finally come out of the shadow.
She had lost a lot of weight before, but after Zhou Buyan and their efforts in feeding her during this period, she finally gained some weight back.
Heard it a thousand times, it would be better to experience it for himself. After seeing it with his own ears, Lingzhou no longer said anything about queuing up, or that he must give birth to a child.
Seeing that Chu Xingchen had been busy for a while, he took advantage of the holiday to say that he had found a particularly delicious restaurant, and pulled Chu Xingchen out of the palace.
Chu Xingchen hadn't gone out or gone shopping for a long time. Feeling the excitement on the street, he felt as if he had suddenly returned to the human world.
"Are you happy? I asked you to come out before but you still didn't come."
In the past, Lingzhou's way of trying to make Chu Xingchen happy was to ride horses together to relax and go shopping for delicious food. Unfortunately, Chu Xingchen was not suitable for riding horses at that time, and she was not in the mood to go out.
Seeing Chu Xingchen's eyes light up at this moment, he couldn't help but turn over old scores.
"It's my fault." Chu Xingchen apologized.
"It's good that you know you were wrong." Lingzhou said arrogantly, but in fact he was also very happy. For a moment, he seemed to have returned to that happy time.
Looking back now, it was a great time. If I could, I would really like to stay there.
Thinking like this, just across the street was Honglou Street, Lingzhou was ready to make a move.
"Sister, let's go to the Red Mansion."
Familiar name, familiar red building, Chu Xingchen looked over, "Didn't you say you don't remember? It seems you really pretended to have amnesia before."
Lingzhou didn't answer and asked, "Are you going?"
"No." She couldn't go to a place like the Red Mansion now.
"Don't you want to experience the charm of an oiran?"
"Oiran? Do you want to go to a brothel?" Chu Xingchen's hands itched, "Lingzhou, are you looking for a fight?" Although there was no AIDS in this era, the brothel business was so good that you could get sick if you were not careful.
"It's not a brothel. Look, you don't even know there is a male courtesan, right? We've already selected them before."
In the past, female oirans were selected, but this year there are male oirans.
"It is said that this male courtesan not only looks great, but also sings very well. People line up to see him, and even to hear him sing, it's hard to get a ticket."
"He was an artist, not a person. His portraits are hard to come by. I'm a little curious about how good-looking he is."
Chu Xingchen also became interested after hearing this. Lingzhou looked at her proudly and said, "Let's go."
In front of the red building, Lingzhou pulled Chu Xingchen out and said, "Everyone wears curtain hats, let's buy some too." They all wore masks before, the familiar rabbit masks, and he wanted to change them.
Lingzhou saw that there was another one with a red gauze curtain and hat, so he handed it to Chu Xingchen.
Chu Xingchen's compatibility with the color red has always been very good, and she liked it too. She quickly put it on and took off the mask.
Her clothes were mostly red, and she was also wearing red today. She put on a red curtain hat, and for a moment Lingzhou suddenly had the illusion that she was wearing a red wedding dress and a red hijab.
Even though he knew it wasn't the case, Lingzhou couldn't help but choose a red curtain hat himself. He was satisfied with the dark red outfit he was wearing. He was also red. It was like getting married and visiting the church.
Thinking like this, he couldn't help but lift up Chu Xingchen's red veil like a red hijab.
