Do you know the long song of laughter?

Chapter 388 The world
"grandmother…"

Minglan was stunned when she heard this. Mrs. Sheng said that there should be no more trouble in the family.

But with Mrs. Wang's temperament, after hearing what Mrs. Sheng said, she would not let Xiaoniang Lin go.

The best way is to lock up Lin Xiaoniang first and wait until the Sheng Hong matter comes to an end and then figure out how to deal with it.

"Okay, let's go!" Mrs. Sheng waved her hand without giving Minglan a chance to speak.

"Yes." Minglan bowed when she heard this.

"Please accompany Miss Ming for a walk." Mrs. Sheng looked at Fang's mother and said.

Minglan absentmindedly walked out of the main hall and headed towards Wei Ruixuan.

When they arrived outside Wei Ruixuan, Minglan seemed to understand Mrs. Sheng's intention.

Old Mrs. Sheng knew Mrs. Wang's temperament very well. Even though she knew that Mrs. Wang would definitely deal with Xiaoniang Lin, she still said this, probably because she wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Xiaoniang Lin.

"Grandma asked me to deliver a message to the eldest lady," Minglan said.

Minglan's guess was correct. Mrs. Sheng had no choice but to let Lin Xiaoniang in, but Lin Xiaoniang has been causing trouble in the Sheng family these years.

However, Lin Xiaoniang actually assassinated the pregnant Wei Xiaoniang, and later even tried to murder Sheng Changjin.

Old Mrs. Sheng didn't bother to care about the little tricks that Miss Lin did in the past.

Mrs. Wang was as happy as if she had received an imperial edict.

Upon hearing this, the rough gatekeeper, the mother-in-law, quickly opened the courtyard door and let Minglan in.

She was very dissatisfied with the result of Sheng Hong's handling, but if she had to deal with Lin Xiaoniang forcibly, Sheng Hong would not break up with her, but in the future, their 'mother and son' would really become mother and son.

There is nothing to say when Sheng Hong comes back.

When Minglan came to the door of Wei Ruixuan, she heard the noise coming from inside. There were two rough ladies guarding the door.

This time is a good opportunity to take advantage of Sheng Hong's absence to settle Xiaoniang Lin's matter and deal with this scourge.

When Ming Lan entered the main hall of Wei Ruixuan, she saw Lin Xiaoniang being pushed to the ground. Mo Lan stood in front of Lin Xiaoniang and was arguing with Mrs. Wang.

"Send a message?" Mrs. Wang was startled.

In ancient times when filial piety was supreme, what Mrs. Sheng said was no different from the imperial edict in the Sheng family.

"Girl Ming, why are you here?" Mrs. Wang was startled when she saw Ming Lan come in.

Minglan leaned forward and said, "Grandma asked me to come over and deliver a message."

Although Mrs. Sheng doesn't care, she still has feelings for her grandchildren.

It will be very difficult for several children to be caught in the middle.

Minglan repeated what Mrs. Sheng said.

In fact, there is no difference. The royal family has restrictions on the harem not being involved in politics, but the Sheng family does not.

She asked Minglan to send a message to remind Mrs. Wang that I don't care how you want to deal with her, but the charges must be confirmed.

Madam Wang was scolding Mo Lan.

When Lin Xiaoniang heard this, her face was ashen.

Minglan didn't care about this, just bowed and left.

When she sent the message, she had already emphasized the truth. If Mrs. Wang couldn't understand it, there was nothing she could do.

Mrs. Wang really failed to understand the profound meaning of Mrs. Sheng's words, but Mrs. Liu was very smart and understood what Mrs. Sheng meant.

Remind Madam Wang that she must first prove her crime.

Mrs. Wang also reacted and asked people to write two confessions, forcing Xiaoniang Lin to sign.

Lin Xiaoniang naturally knew what the consequences would be, so she naturally refused.

Just when Madam Wang was asking Lin Xiaoniang to be held captive, Sheng Changbai rescued the 'adulterer' who was locked up in the woodshed.

That person was not the so-called 'adulterer' at all, but the owner of a tooth shop.

I was clamoring to report to the official.

Old Mrs. Sheng asked Minglan to pass the message, and she kept people paying attention to Wei Ruixuan's movements.

Knowing that Mrs. Wang failed to cut through the mess quickly and clean up Xiaoniang Lin, she secretly cursed Mrs. Wang for being useless.

Giving her a chance was useless. Mrs. Wang, however, took a more strict view and did not give Sheng Changfeng a chance to save people. She directly convicted Lin Xiaoniang and sold her.

Even if Sheng Hong comes back, it will be too late.

With Sheng Hong's temperament, he might be worried about her at first, but after a long time, he still doesn't remember who Miss Lin is.

Now, Mrs. Wang cannot be allowed to continue making trouble like this.

Mrs. Sheng could only send Minglan to send a message again and temporarily ban Lin Xiaoniang from Lin Qige until Sheng Hong came back.

As for the tooth shop owner, he let him go after a few threats.

After all, the Sheng family is a family of officials, and a tooth shop owner would not dare to go out and talk nonsense.

Just when the Sheng family was in chaos, Sheng Hong came back.

……

Li An found out about Sheng Hong's return the next day, and Mrs. Sheng specifically asked Sheng Changbai to come to her home to inform him.

He asked about it and saw that Sheng Changbai was unwilling to say anything, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After all, he knew something about the general situation.

And because of the official's actions this time, Bianjing's appearance is no different from usual, and the people are still talking about who can come out on top this time and win the first prize.

Secretly, there are turbulent waves.

Those officials who took refuge in King Yan regretted it very much and tried to find ways to show their favor to King Yong.

But King Yong ignored it at all. Many officials in the court who did not take sides, seeing the situation became clear, turned to King Yong one after another.

When King Yong is in high spirits, how can he accept people who seek refuge with King Yan?

There were also smart people who advised King Yong that those people should be accepted and the power of King Yan should be completely destroyed.

However, King Yong didn't listen at all. He felt that King Yan had surrendered by staying behind closed doors and there was no threat.

Those people had previously supported King Yan to oppose him, but he had long been so angry that he could not tolerate them.

Under this situation, the day of the palace examination came in a blink of an eye.

The palace examination was held in the Jiying Hall in the palace. The scholars who would test the first and second classes came outside the palace early in the morning.

Familiar people gathered together in small groups and talked quietly.

Li An also gathered with Sheng Changbai and Yang Tao to chat and speculate on the questions in the imperial examination.

When the time came, the palace door opened and the servants led everyone in.

This was Li An's first time entering the palace, and he couldn't help but look around.

The imperial palace of the Song Dynasty was far inferior to the Forbidden City in terms of grandeur and majesty.

When I arrived at the Jiying Hall, I saw that the hall was already filled with tables and desks, with pens, ink, paper and inkstones placed on them.

Under the command of the chamberlain, everyone came to stand in front of a table.

"His Majesty is here!"

After waiting for about a stick of incense, the official finally arrived, and everyone quickly bowed and stood up.

The official came to sit in front of the royal seat and looked at everyone.

"Bye!" the chamberlain shouted.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!" Everyone saluted.

"Pingshen!" Guan Jia said calmly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone straightened up, still bowing slightly and lowering their heads.

"You are all the most elite among the students in the world. Now you have passed the examination and are about to become officials. I hope you will guard against arrogance and impetuosity, serve the country, and benefit the people of the world." The official's plain voice echoed in the room. Main hall.

"I will live up to His Majesty's expectations, devote myself to death, and die!" everyone said in unison.

The chamberlain had already given these instructions on the road before, so he couldn't answer them in a mess.

The official waved his hand and said: "The title of this imperial examination is: World! You can sit down and answer the question."
