The next day was the day to return home, and Ruoxuan and Xuanyuan Que returned to Princess Wuyou's Mansion at the end of the morning hour.

The whole family stood outside the door to greet them.

When Ruoxuan got off the carriage, her legs went weak. Xuanyuan Que quickly grabbed her waist and supported her.

Ruoxuan couldn't help but glare at him!
It's all his fault. Not only did he not use his spiritual power to restore his strength, he also didn't allow her to use it.

She was so weak that her legs weakened when she got off the carriage.

Xuanyuan Que held her wrist and then injected a trace of spiritual power into her.

Ruoxuan felt much more comfortable and smiled at Xuanyuan Que.

With this smile, her brows and eyes relaxed, just like a flower blooming in the morning sun, lively and beautiful.

When Liu saw her precious daughter's legs go weak when she got off the carriage, she felt both distressed and relieved.

What makes me sad is that my daughter is having sex for the first time and my son-in-law doesn't know how to control himself.

But this also shows that my daughter and son-in-law have a good relationship, so I feel relieved.

Of course, I feel mostly heartache. When my daughter gets married, she will become a mother and a wife. She will no longer be able to act like a spoiled child in her parents' arms and be carefree like a girl.

Mother Lei and her children and grandchildren bowed and said, "Your humble servant greets the Ninth Prince and his wife!"

Ruoxuan was surprised for a moment, and hurried to help her grandmother and mother up: "Why are you still bowing?"

Xuanyuan Que rarely spoke: "We are a family, no need to be so polite in the future."

Mother Lei smiled and said, "This is your first time coming home, so you'd better be more serious. You won't do that again in the future. Come in quickly!"

Ruoxuan took Liu and Lei Po's arm and walked inside.

The female members were in the inner courtyard, and Xuanyuan Que was invited to the outer courtyard.

The brothers of the Ruo family and Ruoxuan's brothers all knew that Xuanyuan Que was a man of few words and didn't talk nonsense, but he was well-read and always answered their questions, so they had already planned to ask him any questions they had.

Although Xuanyuan Que likes quietness, it doesn't mean he can't communicate with others.

These are the family members who took care of the flower and made it live a carefree and happy life for eighteen years.

Therefore, Xuanyuan Que was very patient with them and told them everything he knew.

At the meeting, he still didn't say much, and his words were brief and to the point, usually only one sentence. However, whether it was on court politics, military affairs, knowledge, medicine, or business, Xuanyuan Que's words made them feel like they had been enlightened.

The people in the weak family admired him so much that they asked more and more questions unconsciously.

There is no need to worry about the embarrassment and dull atmosphere that they had worried about before.

The atmosphere was very harmonious, but in this harmonious atmosphere, an inappropriate voice was heard.

"Brother-in-law, I'm cousin Xuanbao's eldest cousin-in-law."

Xuanyuan Que looked over but said nothing.

Everyone in the room looked over.

Ruozhou and his brothers couldn't help but twitch their lips. They didn't dare to call the Ninth Prince their brother-in-law!
Zhang Chengye's face changed, and he whispered to his eldest son-in-law, "Jingzhong, don't be rude."

Feng Jingzhong acted as if he didn't hear anything. Before he came, his father-in-law said that the Ninth Prince had a cold personality and didn't like to be disturbed. He told him not to talk nonsense and never offend anyone from the royal family, otherwise the whole family would not be able to bear the consequences.

But wasn’t he easy to get along with when he saw the Ninth Prince?
See what he answers.

Feng Jingzhong ignored his father-in-law and said with a smile, "Cousin-in-law, I just passed the imperial examination this year." This time when Ruoxuan got married, Ruoxuan's maternal grandfather and her aunt's family also came.

Not only did the entire Zhang family come, but Ruoxuan's three cousins ​​who were already married also came to Beijing with their husbands to attend Ruoxuan's wedding.

Feng Jingzhong is Zhang Rui's husband.

Xuanyuan Que played with the tea bowl in his hand without saying a word, waiting for his next words.

Ruochuan's son Ruojian was only six years old. He sat obediently next to his brothers and didn't say a word.

His parents taught him that children should not interrupt adults when they are talking.

But after hearing this, he still couldn't help but ask his brother Ruoyang beside him: "Fifth brother, didn't you say that a scholar doesn't count as a high school student?"

Ruoyang is the son of Ruoshan. He is eleven years old this year and has passed the examination to become a scholar and ranked first.

He congratulated his brother on becoming a high school scholar, but his brother said that becoming a high school scholar did not count as passing the exam.

Only those who passed the imperial examination and ranked first, second, or third place like my second uncle and fourth uncle were considered to have entered high school.

Ruoyang covered his brother's mouth: "Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."

Ruojian nodded quickly to show that he understood.

Zhang Jingzhong blushed. How could a scholar not be considered a high school student? Did they know how difficult it was to pass the exam?
However, the Ruo family was in a high position and had great power, so he was embarrassed to reprimand the young master of the Ruo family.

I could only continue, "Brother-in-law, I want to find an official position in the capital. I wonder if you can arrange one for me? It doesn't have to be too high, a fifth or sixth rank will do."

The people from the weak family frowned.

Zhang Chengye hurriedly said, "Ninth Prince, he was drunk last night and hasn't sobered up yet. He's talking in his sleep! Ninth Prince, don't blame him!"

Xuanyuan Que just nodded without saying anything.

Ruoshui ended the topic by saying, "Ninth Prince, it's getting late. Lunch should be ready by now. Shall we go and have lunch?"

Ruoshui was almost furious. No one in her Ruo family had ever asked for a son-in-law. They had achieved fame and official positions through their own abilities.

That's backbone!

He didn't understand why his brother-in-law found such a son-in-law.

Xuanyuan Que: "Okay."

So the people from the Ruo family surrounded Xuanyuan Que and left.

Zhang Chengye held Feng Jingzhong tightly, preventing him from following.

When only the father-in-law and son-in-law were left in the room, Zhang Jingzhong said unhappily, "Father-in-law, why did you say that just now? Don't you want your son-in-law to become an official, so that Rui'er can live a better life and be respected when she goes out?"

Zhang Chengye said with a dark face: "You have made Rui'er unable to hold her head up in front of everyone by doing this. How can she be respected? If you really want Rui'er to be respected, it should be because you pass the imperial examination with real talent and then be given an official position by the court, not because you are just a small scholar and want to be an official!"

"As long as I become an official, Rui'er will be the official's wife. Naturally, she will be respected because of her husband's status. My father-in-law shouldn't have said that I was drunk in front of my cousin's husband just now. If you had said that for me, my cousin's husband might have agreed! I am a scholar, I have a reputation, how can it not be based on real talent and knowledge? I am just asking for a small official position. There are many fifth or sixth rank official positions in the capital. Many powerful people will seek a fifth or sixth rank official position for their disciples."

"Besides, who am I lowering myself to seek an official position for? It's also for Rui'er!"

Zhang Chengye was so angry that his blood pressure soared: "Then you don't have to beg! Rui'er won't want it! Our Zhang family doesn't want it either! Don't embarrass me!"

After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and strode away. (End of this chapter)
