Chapter 299 Xi Bao Wins the First Prize
"Hey, what happened at home? It's our Xibao who passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer."
As soon as Su Muyao finished speaking, Boss Su became excited and said that Xibao was a good student.
Look at the scholar and the juren all the way to the top scholar, hahaha.
"Okay, I'll get back to you right away."
Then Boss Su handed the thing in his hand to the manager next to him.
He hurriedly got on Su Muyao's pink tram and rushed home.
Before reaching the gate of the Princess's Mansion, the sounds of gongs and drums were heard.
Soon, Xi Bao, sitting on a tall horse, began to travel around the capital.
At this time, Xibao was already 19 years old and a handsome man.
After a long walk, I finally returned to the Princess's Mansion.
Everyone knew that a top scholar had emerged from the Princess's Mansion, and all the ministers in the court came to congratulate her.
It can be said to be a sea of people.
Fortunately, the princess mansion that the emperor gave to Su Muyao was big enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people.
"Congratulations (o^^o)"
"Congratulations, old man."
Here, the three brothers of the Su family and old man Su were busy entertaining the male guests.
Old Mrs. Su was greeting the female members of the family.
"Madam, you are so lucky. Your little granddaughter is second only to the state master, and now your little grandsons are so promising.
Then you can enjoy yourself.”
"Yes, old lady, you have to come to our house more often and let our family get a taste of your family's nobility."
Su Muyao was sitting in her room, happily playing with the little fox.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak, why don't you go to the front?"
"Is it possible that your master is quite socially anxious, so there are too many people outside?"
"Squeak, squeak, what is social phobia?"
The little fox looked at Su Muyao with puzzled eyes and tilted his head.
Su Muyao looked at the little fox and touched his head.
"Do you think I should find other beautiful foxes for you? You've been with me for so many years, I'm afraid you'll get old if you don't find a little male fox?"
Su Muyao did not answer what the little fox meant by social phobia. Instead, she started to worry about the little fox's happiness in the second half of his life.
When Su Muyao asked this question, the little fox instantly got angry: "You are old. This fox fairy doesn't want that stupid mortal fox."
Then he licked the fur on his paws gracefully and jumped into Su Muyao's arms.
After all the guests had left, the family sat together and chatted.
"Look at the name you gave him, Boss.
This Xibao is OK as Xiao Ming, but not so good as Da Ming."
Old Mrs. Su also nodded and said, "I used to think Su Xibao was nothing special, but now that she has become the top scholar, it's embarrassing to be called Xibao Xibao in front of other colleagues."
When Xi Bao heard this, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. It was just a name.
Huanbao nodded aside. Indeed, some people called themselves "Bao" every day because of their own names.
"How about letting the emperor give you a name tomorrow?"
When Xi Bao heard what her grandfather said, her eyes widened.
"Tomorrow is my first day in court, how can I let someone give me a name?"
When Old Man Su heard this, he nodded and said, "That's right, then you can give yourself a name."
"Su Mulin, what do you think of this name, Grandpa? I want to follow my little sister's name.
Huanbao is called Su Musen. I have seen everyone’s unity along the way, especially Yaoyao’s contribution to the entire Su family.
So I think this name is very suitable.”
Old Man Su was not very satisfied with the two names that Xibao originally said, but he heard what Xibao said next.
Yes, their family is what it is today because of their unity.
Su Muyao nodded her head.
But then he suddenly remembered that tomorrow was his elder brother's first day in court, so he had to go with him.
As the morning court had been busy these days, it had not continued. After all, there was nothing important to attend. If I went, the ministers would be too arrogant to talk freely.
I had secretly heard two of the ministers talking about me before.
Some said they were afraid of the little princess and some said don't look down on her because of her young age, but as soon as she stood over there, everyone lost all other ideas.
No matter what happened, they subconsciously looked at the little princess, feeling that as long as the little princess was there, they would not be needed at all.
So ever since Su Muyao heard these words, she rarely went to the court again.
Just then Long Yuan finally arrived, carrying large and small bags of things to celebrate.
"Yuanyuan is here, come on, sit over here." Old Lady Su greeted Longyuan warmly as usual.
However, Su Muyao's mouth twitched. This little old lady was really adorable. She had called the little prince "Yuanyuan" since he was a child.
Now that the prince is so old, he is still called Yuanyuan. I really want to know if my grandmother will continue to call him Yuanyuan after Longyuan inherits the throne?
It’s funny even thinking about it.
Long Yuan looked at Su Muyao smiling at him and returned her a silly smile.
If other generals in the army saw this, they would be shocked.
He is a living killer in the army, with an icy face all the time.
Where have you ever seen Long Yuan being nice to anyone in the army?
Look at Long Yuan now, with that worthless smile on his face...
A few of them chatted and laughed while thinking about Long Yuan having dinner at the Princess's Mansion.
Liu Mansion
Erya was cooking for the family in the kitchen when she heard the maids next to her talking about the Princess's Mansion.
"Xiao Min, do you know? The Princess's Mansion is very lively today."
"What's wrong, Zhaodi? Did you sneak out of the mansion? How do you know what happened in the Princess's Mansion?"
Erya on the side pricked up her ears.
"Xiao Min, I didn't sneak out of the mansion. I heard the two guards at the gate chatting."
"Then tell me what's going on. I'm really worried to death."
"What else could it be? I heard that the eldest son of the eldest wife's family in the Princess's Mansion won the first place in the imperial examination.
I heard that all the dignitaries in the capital went to congratulate him, especially the Crown Prince who came behind, who was said to have brought a lot of treasures in large and small bags."
"Please keep your voice down. Don't let the happy event of the Princess's Mansion get to that person's ears, or he might burst into tears."
After Xiao Min finished speaking, she stole a glance at Erya.
Zhaodi naturally saw it too: "What are you afraid of? Although our eldest lady is the lady of the mansion, her life is worse than that of us maids.
Look at this princess's mansion's eldest son, who has become the number one scholar, but he didn't even bother to invite this guy back to join in the fun.
From this we can see that this lady does not have the status in the Princess's Mansion as she claims.
What second young lady? She is just a maid favored by the old lady. She really thinks she is the master. "
When Erya heard this, she threw the rag in her hand, walked up to Zhaodi angrily, and slapped her in the face.
"No matter how low my position is in the Princess's Mansion, it is still better than yours. How dare you, a servant, talk about your master behind his back?"
Zhaodi has always been close to the old lady and has always been fearless. How could she be willing to be beaten by the unpopular eldest lady today?
He rolled up his sleeves and went forward to beat Arya.
