The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

Chapter 45 The Farmer's Imperial Examination 11
The words planned by Jia Huan and the three quickly spread to the ears of Concubine Shu and her elder brother through Concubine Shu's nephew.

What the three people said was specious, but they were more able to convince Concubine Shu and others.

If it is too detailed, they may doubt it.

Shi Zeyu followed Concubine Shu's elder brother Yidang's actions, while Jia Huan went to take part in the palace examination.

To be honest, this was the first time he had entered the palace to meet the emperor in several lifetimes.

He was still a little nervous.

But he was no longer simply Jia Huan of the Rongguo Mansion, and he no longer had awe of the emperor.

Answering the questions was very smooth. Jia Huan collected some of the papers, and the writing was quite satisfactory, not too outstanding.

In the end, the results of the palace examination came out, and Jia Huan won the [-]th place in the second class.

Pu Chenghong, whom he helped, has become a second-class biography!
The spring breeze was proud of the horseshoe disease. After parading through the streets, the newly released Jinshi entered the palace again to participate in the Qionglin Banquet.

Pu Chenghong walked up to Jia Huan and raised his glass to thank Jia Huan.

Both of them are not sociable people, so they nestled aside and chatted.

None of the top three came from humble backgrounds, and they all had close or distant relationships with officials in the DPRK and China, so they attracted much attention.

Neither Pu Chenghong nor Jia Huan would be jealous of the limelight of these three people, they both saw the undercurrent in the court.

Although Pu Chenghong was not as clear as Jia Huan and knew as much information, he was smart. From the age of the old emperor and the activity of the princes, he deduced that it was time to seize the heir apparent.

If Mao rashly participates, it's fine if he wins, but if the side he chooses wins...

"Brother Jia wants to take the examination of Shu Jishi?" Pu Chenghong asked.

Jia Huan nodded: "I will stay in the capital for the time being."

Pu Chenghong: "Great, we can do things together in the future."

Jia Huan smiled: "Not necessarily."

It's not that after entering the Hanlin Academy, you can work together.

Jia Huan stayed in the capital to deal with the Yang family, but he never thought about working actively to express himself.

He would only nest in the Hanlin Academy to catch fish.

Pu Chenghong is different. He comes from a poor family. If he wants to be promoted, he must work hard and express himself.

Two people don't have time to play together.

Seeing the two princes heading for the No. [-] prize, Jia Huan couldn't help but feel tired for the three of them.

Fortunately, all three of them have families to protect them. If they were children from poor families, they would have been skinned and cramped by the princes long ago.

Soon after the Qionglin Banquet, Jia Huan took the Shujishi Examination, successfully passed the Shujishi examination, and entered the Imperial Academy to study.

He acted like a nerd who liked to read books, and he didn't show himself in the Imperial Academy, he just flipped through the books in the Imperial Academy all day long.

The people in the Imperial Academy felt that he was not a threat, so they didn't care about him anymore.

Jia Huan inexplicably felt that his popularity in the Imperial Academy was quite good.

On this side, Concubine Shu's elder brother has already taken action. They sent people to collect evidence of Yang Chengyun's collusion with the third prince and the fourth prince, and evidence of his evil deeds.

This is not a job that can be completed in a short time, and Jia Huan is not in a hurry.

Every day after he got off work from the Imperial Academy, he would go to the place where the three religions and nine streams gathered, and while he was finishing dinner, he would listen to information from those people.

Shi Zeyu has already returned to his hometown, and he can't wait to go back to see his wife and children, and by the way, bring the news that Jia Jingyi is not dead to Jia's house.

According to Jia Huan's estimation, upon hearing the news about Jia Jingyi, the elders in the family would definitely not be able to sit still and would come to the capital to see Jia Jingyi.

Shi Zeyu naturally wanted to escort them to the capital.

Then, the small yard he lives in now is not enough.

It just so happened that the owner of the yard next to him was a pair of brothers with the owner of the small yard where he lived. Jia Huan approached them and bought both small yards directly.

He made holes in the wall connecting the two courtyards so that the two courtyards merged into one.

Jia Jingyi occasionally came to this yard to stay for a day or two, and he took over the work of furnishing the room.

He is looking forward to reuniting with his grandparents and mother and sister.

Chu Wenyao didn't often go to Zhuangzi to see him, and it was common to go once every two or three months.

Therefore, Jia Jingyi is not worried that Chu Wenyao finds out that he is not in Zhuangzi.

"Hey, when will the eldest prince and his gang collect all the evidence against Yang Chengyun?" Jia Jingyi couldn't wait any longer, he really didn't want to bear the name of Chu Wenyao's concubine.

"It's coming, it's coming." Jia Huan said, "I'll ask someone to help secretly and send the clues to Concubine Shu's elder brother."

If it wasn't for Jia Huan's secret help, those who wanted to find clues would have wasted a lot of time.

Yang Chengyun is an old fox, it is not easy to check him, unless the emperor takes action.

"When grandparents and grandparents arrive in the capital, the First Prince's faction should take action." Jia Huan estimated the time.

A prayer appeared on Jia Jingyi's face: "I don't know where my grandfather is now."

After hearing from Shi Zeyu that Jia Jingyi was not dead, Jia Dashi and Jia Chunying couldn't sit still, and immediately went to the capital to meet their grandson/grandson.

Although Jia Dacheng and Zhang were sad that the eldest son had no news and did not know whether he was dead or alive, the younger son passed the Jinshi exam, which was enough to heal the grief of the older son's passing away.

They wanted to see their youngest son even more.

So, the whole family decided to go to Beijing together.

After renting the family's land to villagers at a low price, Jia Dashi left the village with his family.

With Shi Zeyu guarding them along the way, they arrived in the capital smoothly.

At this time, Jia Dashi was very satisfied with letting his granddaughter marry Shi Zeyu.

Jia Huan estimated the time when the Jia family would arrive in the capital, and took Jia Jingyi out of the city to meet the Jia family.

Jia Jingyi was apprehensive and timid because of his closeness to his hometown.

Seeing his mother and grandparents, what would he say?
The fact is that Jia Chunying hugged him without him opening his mouth, and his shoulders were wet with tears.

Jia Jingyi's eyes turned red.

"It's good to be alive! It's good to be alive!" Jia Dashi kept saying with red eyes.

His sister also shed tears at him, and his brother-in-law comforted her.

Uncle and aunt are holding two powdered and jade-carved children in their hands, are they his nephew and niece?

The family was sitting in the main room. At this time, Jia Chunying had stopped crying, holding Jia Jingyi's hand tightly with one hand, for fear that Jia Jingyi would disappear if she let go.

Jia Jingyi patted the back of Jia Chunying's hand comfortingly with the other hand, expressing his existence and would not disappear.

"Chu Wenyao, that bastard." Jia Dashi slapped the table angrily, "I shouldn't have married Chunying to him back then."

"Father, I have nothing to do with Chu Wenyao," Jia Chunying said.

Now she has no feelings for Chu Wenyao, only disgust and hatred.

Lu said: "The most hateful is that Chu Yang, if not for her, Jingyi and Lang'er would not have fallen into the river..."
