Chapter 450 The Past
After entering the wing room and sitting down, Shen Mingjiao said straight to the point: "You may be my husband's nephew, the prince of the Great Xia Kingdom, because the emperor's sister-in-law had some accidents during childbirth, which caused you to live outside."

Xu Chunsheng clenched his hands hanging by his sides, and his tone was calm when he spoke: "It's not enough to explain anything just by appearance."

Shen Mingjiao asked him back: "I don't believe Mr. Xu never doubted his own life experience at all?"

She glanced roughly just now, and it was true that as Sun Qiang said, Xu Chunsheng and the Xu family did not look alike at all.

Xu Chunsheng paused, "I am indeed not the parent and child of my parents, I have known this for a long time,"

Many parents say everything in front of their children. They think that their children don't understand anything when they are young, but it is not the case, especially for a smart child like Xu Chunsheng.

"According to what my parents said, my birth was very dishonorable. I was secretly conceived by a prostitute in a brothel in order to climb up on a rich dude. Later, my wife found out and sent people to chase me down. After a while, I was adopted by Xu's parents."

Although his parents loved him, they would occasionally beat and scold him when they were unhappy, and even say some nasty things, especially after his father passed away, and his mother married his father as a distant marriage, and was often squeezed out by members of the Xu family, so his temper inevitably became weird and paranoid.

In fact, he was not obsessed with taking the test of academic achievement, but his mother talked all day long about asking him to study hard and get ahead in order to win for her.

At the age of eight, he passed the Tongsheng examination, which is unique in Qingyun County and even in the whole of southern Yunnan. He was hailed as a child prodigy, and even the county magistrate came to commend him in person.

Mother hugged him excitedly, and kept saying that I really did not raise you in vain.

At that time, he was not happy at all, because he knew that his mother was not happy for him, but because he had a child at the age of 8.

Although his parents loved him dearly, because of his birth, they actually looked down on him deep down in their hearts, which once made him suffocate.

In order not to disappoint his mother, he studied desperately. There was no good teacher in Qingyun County, so he bought books and taught himself.
At the age of 13, he mastered the Four Books and Five Classics and stereotyped theory.

But just the day before he entered the county, he had an inexplicable fever, but his mother insisted on letting him take the exam regardless of his illness, saying that if he missed this time, he would have to wait another year.
After entering the examination room, holding the handed out examination paper, his eyes turned black for a while. He finished the examination paper with strong will and had no hope for the result.

All he could think about was his mother's scolding when he went back, but when he left the examination room, what greeted him was the news of his mother's death.

Hearing this, Shen Mingjiao was so angry that he almost slapped the table, and even Feng Lisheng, who had forgotten his future, frowned.

Shen Mingjiao said angrily: "They lied to you, or they were also deceived. How could you be born of a whore!"

Xu Chunsheng's appearance more than half resembles Jing and Emperor. As the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, he doesn't need to set up any affectionate persona.
Doctor Wu directly opened the medicine box and took out the special porcelain bottle: "Why bother, just test it and you'll know."

Shen Mingjiao did not refute, the test must be done.

He glanced outside and said with a smile: "What should the Xu family know about your life experience?"

Only Feng Lisheng was present at the scene who met the blood test requirements. The doctor Wu took a porcelain bottle full of blood from the two of them and left contentedly.

Xu Chunsheng pressed the wound unconsciously, feeling a little nervous and inexplicably expecting.

Not because of the possible prince status, but because he wants a clean background.

Shen Mingjiao comforted in a slow voice: "Don't think too much, no matter how hard it is, you've already made it through, so there's nothing to be afraid of."

Xu Chunsheng took a breath: "Madam is right."

Those things have already passed, and he will leave here after today. For the rest of his life, with Yaya, his mother and daughter, the family of three can do many things. What is there to be obsessed with about the right and wrong of the past?
After thinking about this, he smiled in relief, and didn't seem to care so much about the final result.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and Tie Zhu held a confession in his hand.
"Princess, the members of the Xu family have confessed." After speaking, he glanced at Xu Chunsheng, hesitant to speak: "Mr. Xu, you must be prepared, many things may be unbearable for you."

Xu Chunsheng understood what he meant, he pursed his lower lip, and smiled gently at Tie Zhu: "Please trouble this military master, I'm fine."

Tie Zhu glanced at Shen Mingjiao and Shen Mingjiao, opened the confession, curled his lips and said: "The Xu family looked at it, but it was actually a bunch of soft bones. The brothers didn't use much torture, so they recruited them all, just the bone that smelled like dung. Hard point.

Xu's second child is also Xu Chunsheng's father. After returning to Qingyun County with his wife and children from the capital city 20 years ago, he should have a lot of family assets. He opened two stores in the county town, and the business is pretty good.
In addition, his wife did a good job of embroidery, and her life was no worse than that of a wealthy family in the county.

The Xu family was jealous in several rooms, but Xu's second child was sold by his parents and brothers back then, so even though he came back, he almost cut off contact with the Xu family, let alone helping him.

At first, they could only be jealous, until when Xu Chunsheng was five years old, Xu's second son went to the mountain to pick bayberries and died unexpectedly. Xu's family seized the opportunity to smear Xu Chunsheng's reputation everywhere.They also found someone posing as a Taoist priest to come to the village to pretend to be gods and ghosts.

Fortunately, Xu Chunsheng's mother, Mrs. Wang, has some wrists and holds the money shop firmly in her hands."

He turned to another page: "The day before Xu Chunsheng applied for the college entrance examination at the age of 13, Xu Dalang planned that Xu Chunsheng fell into the water and caused the wind and cold, but he didn't expect that even so, the royal family took Xu Chunsheng into the county to take the examination."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, glanced at the calm Xu Chunsheng, and felt that his psychological endurance was not bad, so he continued:
"The eldest brother of the Xu family, Xu Chunsheng's uncle, accidentally learned that Jin Yuanwai spent money to open up the relationship with the county government in the county seat, and wanted his son to "examine" a scholar. Unfortunately, Qingyun County's education level is backward, and there will not be a scholar in a few years.

The eldest brother of Xu's family thought about it. He knew that Xu Chunsheng was a good student and would definitely pass the exam without any accidents, so he negotiated a deal with Yuanwai Jin.

Half a month later, when the rankings were released, Xu Chunsheng was admitted as a scholar, but was replaced by Jin Bao. "

Shen Mingjiao asked incredulously: "This can still be replaced. If it is found out, it will be a serious crime of ransacking the family and exterminating the entire family?"

In Daxia, the degree of sentencing for cheating in the examiner's examination room is comparable to that of forcing a palace to rebel. In addition, the supervision is very strict. Therefore, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there have been almost no instances of examiner cheating in the scientific examination in Daxia. Operability is too difficult,
Feng Lisheng explained: "If it is in the capital city or a large state capital, it is naturally impossible, but Qingyun County is too poor and remote, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, as long as the county magistrate does not act, it is not difficult to operate.

Of course, this is only limited to children and scholars, and the subsequent rural examinations have to be taken in Fucheng, and there are also imperial envoys appointed by the imperial court, so it is almost impossible to take the exams for them."

Shen Mingjiao continued: "That's why Jin Bao didn't take the exam again when he was admitted as a scholar. It's not that people think that his talents are exhausted, but that he has no talents at all."

Xu Chunsheng was stunned for a moment, "You mean I passed the academician exam back then?"

 I'm so sleepy, I can't help but go to bed first**
