Chapter 146, Xiahou Huanyan
Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin were admitted to the National Women's Academy, and Shi Dinghao was admitted to the Imperial Academy, which greatly exposed the Shi family's face. Because of this, many families who had no relationship for a long time began to continue to walk with the Shi family.
There are three outstanding juniors in the family, and the Shi family is full of joy. However, compared to the three who still need to grow up for a few years, the Shi family is most concerned about Shi Dingxuan's martial arts exam.
As long as he is on the list, Shi Dingxuan can immediately enter the court and become an official. Even if he is a military officer of the last rank, it can prove that the Shi family has successors.
Martial arts strategy theory is not as complicated as the liberal arts exam. It takes three days to take the exam, and martial arts strategy theory is over in one day.
When Shi Fuxin, Shi Fuyin, and Shi Dinghao returned to Bo's residence, Shi Dingxuan had already returned from the examination room and was called to Yixiang Hall for questioning.
In Yixiangtang, Grandpa Shi looked at Shi Dingxuan who was chatting with Grandpa Shi, and then looked at the eldest son who was sitting at the side and could only listen with him. His eyes were a little sad. After sitting for a while, he got up and walked out of the hall .
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
Shi Da Furen followed out in concern.
Seeing that it was his wife, Eldest Master Shi smiled and shook his head. After a moment of silence, he smiled wryly and said, "Zhihan, I really envy fourth brother."
When the eldest lady looked at her husband with a gloomy expression, she felt very sour in her heart. She really understood her husband's mood completely, so why didn't she envy Jin Yue'e.
Although the four younger siblings are not born well, the four children they gave birth to are all excellent, and they are loved and valued by their husbands. In this life, don't women just want a husband who knows the cold and the hot, and the future of the children? She has both of these things. There is.
Speaking of it in detail, she is the most blessed woman in the uncle's mansion.
Mrs. Shi didn't want to be immersed in such useless sadness, so she forced a smile and said: "The performance of Dinghao, Sister Yin, and Sister Xin when they applied for the Imperial Academy and the National Women's Academy was really beyond our expectations. Once, thinking about it, Dingxuan will not lose to the younger siblings."
Master Shi is also aware of the situation in the Bo's House. His generation can still rely on the old man of the Bo's House, but in his son's generation, if there is no one capable of resisting the situation, the Shi family is afraid that they will really go to war. It's gone.
He has two sons, the eldest son is fairly stable, but his talent is not high. If the Earl's title is still there, he can keep it.
As for the second son, a scholar who loves to dance and write, it is good that he can live his own life well, and don't expect him to do anything else.
The fifth and seventh younger brothers also have quite a few sons, but looking at them coldly, none of them are particularly outstanding.
Through looking at the Bo mansion, only Ding Xuan and Ding Hao from the fourth brother's family are the male heirs that can be obtained.
Before, Ding Xuan had been immersed in his studies, he had seen very little, and he didn’t know much about him except that he was very strong in kung fu.
But today when he went to the examination room with his fourth brother to pick him up, he saw Dingxuan leaving the examination room with other martial arts students, and he realized that this nephew was so outstanding.
At the beginning when his father used the favor of Dingguo Duke's mansion to take Dingxuan to visit the old Duke Xiahou, he felt a little uncomfortable. On the one hand, he wanted to leave this favor to the eldest son; on the other hand, he was also worried Dingxuan will waste this favor.
But today's policy theory exam, compared with other students who are either frustrated, anxious, or sad, Dingxuan, who is calm and has a good chance of winning, is so different.
Isn't what the Shi family needs is such a young man with a deep chest who can take on the important task of establishing a family?
"If Dingxuan can be on the list this time, it will be the honor of the Bofu."
Master Shi is very happy at the moment, fortunately, his father and mother firmly chose to take back the fourth brother's family.
In terms of feelings, Zhengkun and them must be closer; but, from the perspective of the development of Bofu, Zhengkun's two sons are not bad, but compared with Dingxuan and Dinghao, there is still a gap .
Mother is right, what the Shi family needs is someone who can break the situation.
Master Shi looked at Mrs. Shi: "In the future, the family's resources should be tight to the four children of the fourth brother."
Shi Da Furen paused, then nodded: "I know."
The husband and wife looked at each other with bitterness in their eyes.
On the third day after the examination of martial arts theory, the students began to test their martial arts and horseback riding and archery.
The martial arts arena is located in the Ministry of War, and the day before the exam, it was banned here.
On the day of the martial arts test, outside the gate of the Ministry of War, Shi Fuxin looked at Qiao Xinyu dumbly: "Didn't you say that you can get the access token? Where is the token?"
Qiao Xinyu touched her nose guiltily: "It's really not my fault, I was let go." Then, she snorted, "Cousin Huanyan is too unreliable. We agreed to meet at the Ministry of War and arrive at the Ministry of War." Now she doesn't even have a figure."
Shi Fuxin asked: "Who is Cousin Huanyan?"
Qiao Xinyu: "My aunt's youngest daughter, Xiahou Huanyan, is a good friend of Jiang Zijin from the left servant's family of the Ministry of War."
Shi Fuxin: "Since you made an appointment with her, why hasn't she come yet?"
Qiao Xinyu shook her head: "I don't know either."
Shi Fuxin looked at the closed gate of the Ministry of Military Affairs, knowing that it would be impossible to go in to watch her brother's exam, so she said regretfully, "Today is considered skipping class for nothing, let's go back."
As he spoke, he was about to turn around and leave.
Qiao Xinyu held her back: "Don't go, the martial arts test has just started, you and I go to Dingguo Mansion to find Cousin Huanyan for a token, we should be faster, and we will definitely be able to watch the test in the afternoon."
Shi Fuxin thought that she would be questioned about the reason when she returned home now, so she agreed with Qiao Xinyu.
Since her brother studied with the old Duke Xiahou, the changes are visible to the naked eye.
In Mrs. Shi’s words, her brother is just a piece of beautiful jade, but it was wrapped in the original stone and not carved. With the teaching of the old Duke Xiahou, this piece of beautiful jade began to show its original brilliance.
Because of this, she has always wanted to meet the old Duke Xiahou, the former military general who had gone through three dynasties.
Dingguo Mansion is located on Chang'an Street, close to Chengtianmen, the south gate of the imperial city.
Shi Fuxin and Qiao Xinyu took the carriage for half an hour before they arrived at the Dingguo Mansion, which has gone through five dynasties and is still unfailingly favored.
Qiao Xinyu is the niece of Mrs. Dingguo's son, and she doesn't need to be notified when she comes to Dingguo.
Led by Qiao Xinyu, Shi Fuxin arrived at an exquisite courtyard with attics and waterside pavilions.
"This is Cousin Huanyan's Leisurely Residence. My cousin is three years older than me. During this time, my aunt was proclaiming her kiss. She must have been **** off, so she forgot the agreement with me."
As soon as the words fell, under the flower corridor in full bloom, the two saw a girl in blue clothes lying on a wooden table.
"Happy Cousin!"
Looking at Xiahou Huanyan looking back, Shi Fuxin's eyes flashed with astonishment.
What a beautiful woman!
