After becoming a widow, I raised my traitor brother

Chapter 137 I won Tanhualang on the first day of the list
Qingju smiled like a flower: "No.3, Your Majesty hand-picked Tanhua Lang! It is said that the young master performed very well in the palace examination, and should have been selected as the number one scholar, but our young master is so good-looking, it is very eye-catching to your majesty, so he was on the spot. Hand-picked as Tan Hua Lang!"

She helped Wei Zi get up and wash up: "Early in the morning, there was an endless stream of guests who came to congratulate me. They were all staying in the front yard. Young Master is entertaining them. I guess I can't accompany you for lunch."

Wei Zi washed and dressed properly, and stood by the railing on the second floor looking into the distance.

The spring breeze is shining, and the garden is full of flowers.

Most of the guests coming and going were court officials and sons of aristocrats who wanted to make friends with Xiao Fengxian, and there were also many Jinshi candidates who had been promoted in the same session. Next, the guests took their seats in an orderly manner, and the sound of talking, laughing and noise was sent across the courtyard walls by the spring breeze. Even though it was so far away, Wei Zi could feel their enthusiasm.

She looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help stretching her eyebrows.

Xiao Fengxian's road to officialdom probably started from here.

He is like a kite, flying farther and farther in the vast nine heavens, even she has no power to restrain him.

She said softly: "He is happy today, so let's not disturb him in the front yard. We will also cook a table of meals. If he is free at night, I will invite him to eat. It is my congratulations to him in high school."

Right now, the front yard.

Xiao Gui and his son also came to the banquet.

The father and son were in a sour mood.

The son of a prostitute who was thought to be the most disappointing, did not expect to be so prominent now.

They have made thousands of calculations, but they have not counted that Xiao Fengxian can be found.

Tanhualang, no matter which dynasty or generation he is placed in, is quite impressive.

What is the future, you don't have to think about it.

Xiao Lingxiao suppressed his jealousy, managed to keep a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "Think about the good, at least he is a member of our family. If he gets face, our benefits will be indispensable in the future. I can also take advantage of him and show it in front of His Majesty." Show your face. Besides, being an official is not the same as studying. He pays more attention to contacts and resources. He is good at reading and reading, but he is too arrogant and domineering in his life. It can be seen that the official career may not be smooth sailing. Dad, just wait and see, and use it up in the future He, sooner or later I will trample him under my feet."

Xiao Gui nodded: "Xiao Fengxian is a wolf-hearted little bastard, not filial at all! Xiao'er, the only one we can count on as a father in our family is you!"

The father and son were discussing, and an official attending the banquet learned of their identities, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, brother Xiao, for raising such an excellent son! As for Tanhualang in high school, this resume is enough to be recorded in the annals of history!"

Xiao Gui didn't like it in his heart, so he took the initiative to introduce Xiao Lingxiao: "This is my eldest son Ling Xiao, who is a doctor in the fifth rank of Renzheng in the court, and he is also very good, not inferior to his younger brother."

The official couldn't help talking with Xiao Lingxiao.

Gradually, the father and son actually regarded this banquet as a way to make friends with dignitaries. Whenever they saw prominent officials, they couldn't wait to go up to strike up a conversation. For Xiao Fengxian's sake, everyone had to give them some face.

An official looked at Xiao Fengxian more and more, and couldn't help but stroked his beard and asked with a smile: "Brother Xiao, I wonder if your youngest son has a marriage proposal? I have a young daughter in my family who plays piano, chess, calligraphy and painting—"

"Get out!" Another official pushed him away unceremoniously, "Three years ago, you were the one to catch your eldest daughter's son-in-law, and you snatched away the son-in-law I've been looking at for a long time, and now you're going to snatch it from me again! Xiao Fengxian was our family's first favorite, so you go away! If brother Xiao is willing to marry me, then I am willing to give my daughter thirty dan dowry, plus ten shops!"

Xiao Gui and Xiao Lingxiao looked at each other, feeling even more sour in their hearts.

These officials who co-authored came to propose marriage to Xiao Fengxian...

Xiao Lingxiao was even more unhappy.

Back then, he was able to be the son-in-law of the Marquis of Changping because he fell into Sun Huangchan's eyes by chance.

But in the end, he is just a son-in-law.

Even his own son had to be named after the Sun family.

But Xiao Fengxian...

The father and son looked at the eager officials, very unhappy.

When the banquet officially started, Xiao Fengxian suddenly announced in public: "Thanks to all of you who came to the banquet today, it made the house flourish. Your Majesty will get married in seven days, please be sure to come to the banquet again at that time."

The noisy banquet was quiet for a moment, and then the pot exploded.

Everyone looked at him in disbelief.

marriage? !
Whose daughter is so good that she won Tanhualang on the first day of the ranking? !
This year's Tanhualang is not an ordinary person, not to mention he is still so young, one can imagine what kind of peerless beauty that girl must be, so that a young man is willing to give up other daughters and marry her directly!

Wei Huanjin, the eldest son of Zhen Guogong's mansion, shook his folding fan and joked to his friend Song Chengyi in a low voice: "You and I don't want to get married, but he announced the date of marriage in such a hurry, which shows that he is very eager to get married. Let's come and see after seven days Look at the beautiful face of the bride, and then see who she is the daughter of some adult in Beijing."

Everyone present had different thoughts.

Xiao Lingxiao frowned, put up his elder brother's airs, and asked: "Second brother, why are you getting married suddenly? Who are you marrying?! Marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words, you can't mess around!"

Xiao Fengxian gave him a meaningful look: "Brother will naturally know when the time comes."

……

backyard.

Wei Zi cooks himself and prepares a table of good dishes.

Looking forward to the day when the sun is setting, the banquet in the front yard will finally end.

The moon gradually rose and hung brightly on the treetops.

The sound of spring insects came from the garden, and the mansion was extraordinarily quiet after the banquet.

Wei Zi sat on the threshold and was in a daze for some time before he saw someone coming with a lantern.

The young man was dressed in the darkness of night, the lantern in his hand gave off a thin light, and the crimson brocade robe with round neck made him gorgeous. He drank too much today, his fox eyes were as red as spring, and his thin lips were full of pimples that were different from usual. smile.

He stood still in front of Wei Zi.

Wei Zi looked up at him, and his soft voice was more concerned than reproachful: "Why did you leave the banquet so late?"

Xiao Fengxian looked down at her steadfastly: "They are all young people. They drink too much and like to punch and drink. They can't stop them from playing. Later, a few dudes took the lead and called singers and dancers to help the fun, so there was a lot of trouble. until now."

Wei Zi tightened the small handkerchief in his hand.

No wonder besides the smell of wine, there was also a faint fragrance of powder on his body.

She lowered her head, remained silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Did you fight with them too?"

"Ah."

Wei Zi’s mind came up with the pictures he had seen when he passed by Fangshi before—those men with smoky faces gathered in a restaurant to fight and drink, and the drinking orders they chanted were very shameless and obscene. It is obscene.

She frowned.

Unexpectedly, these aristocratic children would also play drinking orders, and they even brought Xiao Fengxian with them.

With a strange feeling in her heart, she hesitated: "Then, does the singer sing well, and does the dancer dance well?"
