The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Chapter 46: Don’t embarrass yourself with those who want to lose face

In the Prince Jin's Mansion, there was the sound of silk and bamboo, singing and dancing.

Tonight is the day when His Royal Highness the King of Jin entertains his staff. As the New Year approaches, the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

At this moment, a young scribe came forward and handed in a letter of resignation.

His Highness Prince Jin's smile froze on his face, "Shi Yunqing, do you want to resign?"

Shi Yunqing stepped forward and bowed his hands, "His Royal Highness, King Jin, Yun Qing is not very talented and has little knowledge, so he can no longer help His Highness. My father has ordered me to attend the Spring Festival next year, work hard to obtain merit, and serve the imperial court."

After hearing this, everyone showed strange expressions.

Many of the people here have failed in previous examinations, so they know how difficult it is to break out of a tight siege from thousands of troops.

None of them got good grades in the exams, so how could this young boy get the honors and brazenly talk about serving the imperial court?

Besides, it's not like that kid has never failed the exam. He talks as if he will definitely be able to pass high school next year. hehe……

A scribe who was about the same age as Shi Yunqing came out and said jokingly, "Brother Yunqing, I'm afraid you didn't resign just for spring, right?"

Shi Yunqing frowned and asked, "Brother Yongchang, what do you mean by this?"

"Don't you understand in your heart?" Zheng Yongchang's mouth evoked a hint of malice, "Isn't it because Brother Yunqing feels that it is more comfortable to be the staff of His Highness Prince Jin rather than being the uncle of His Highness Prince Jin?"

Shi Yunqing's expression suddenly changed, "Zheng Yongchang, I have no enmity with you, so please be careful with what you say!"

Zheng Yongchang laughed loudly, "Didn't you, the Marquis of the Shi family, already make such wild claims that your daughter will be the Princess of Jin? Why, are you going to admit it? You should just let yourselves say it, and we passers-by are not allowed to watch!"

Shi Yunqing was extremely embarrassed. He had been busy recently and had not paid attention to the rumors at all.

His Highness King Jin was very curious, "Who will be my King's Princess Jin?"

Zheng Yongchang quickly stopped laughing and replied respectfully, "Of course she is the legitimate granddaughter of the Hou family! There are only two legitimate granddaughters of the Hou family. One is the eldest daughter of the eldest family, Shi Anxin, and the other is the eldest daughter of the second family, Shi Anxia. According to rumors , it was a mother in the Hou Mansion who shouted that her daughter was going to be the Princess of Jin soon. According to what I saw, the only one who could say this was Shi Anxia's mother. Because Shi Anxia's mother died young and is no longer here."

"Oh?" Jin Wang Xiao Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Shi Anxia? That's a good name."

Shi Yunqing was anxious and secretly cursed the Hou Mansion for doing such bad things.

He was the distant cousin who sent An Rou back to the Hou Mansion that night.

A few days ago, the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, Shi Chengyi, suddenly came to his father and asked him to leave His Highness Prince Jin and stop being an aide. He also said that the Minghou Mansion will soon open a clan school and will invite great scholars to give lectures and help the children of the Shi family to achieve great success in the spring of the coming year.

He did have some talent, but it was hard to make a name for himself in the capital with the little he had learned.

Judging from the rankings of previous examinations, those who can firmly rank in the top ten are, without exception, either the sons of aristocratic families or those who have studied in famous academies or academies.

It is a miracle that those who come to Beijing from other places and do not seek guidance from a good teacher can be listed on the list.

In particular, the North Wing Popular Ethnology Competition will be in full swing one after another after the new year, and will continue until spring.

Shi Yunqing had passed the exam the year before last and failed. He has never been in a clan school and has never participated in any competition.

So the uncle of the Hou family came over and said that although his father was a little hesitant, he was immediately moved, so he wrote this resignation letter.

He knew in his heart that the rumors must become rumors and must not admit them, so he bowed his hands and said, "Shi Anxia is my distant cousin. She is still young and has not yet reached the age of hair. Her mother is the eldest daughter of the Protector's Palace, so there is no way she can be innocent." You are making such ridiculous remarks. Please be careful, Your Highness the King of Jin, and don’t listen to the villain’s slander.”

Zheng Yongchang glared angrily, "Who do you think is a villain?"

Shi Yunqing replied calmly, "Whoever spreads rumors and causes trouble is a villain. Brother Yongchang, don't try to challenge him."

Zheng Yongchang fell back in anger, "Shi Yunqing, you don't have to be so weird. Do you think your Marquis Mansion is a decent family? If you don't have the ability, you will make jokes every day, either this one will make trouble with the government, or that one will make trouble Shangguanfu."

Although Shi Yunqing was dissatisfied with the Hou Mansion's behavior, he could not write two words of "Shi" in one stroke.

Even if we argue this way, we still have to share the same hatred with the enemy outside. "Whose family doesn't have a dispute? What if it gets into trouble with the government? Didn't someone from your Zheng family just come out of prison?"

If someone can serve as a staff member, what family is not in poverty? Any powerful family would find a way to seriously seek a position in the court. Who would serve as an aide to a prince with no real power?

Staff like them are, to put it bluntly, servants with a bit of culture, and no one is much more noble than the other.

Seeing the two people quarreling fiercely, Jin Wang Xiao Sheng said, "Okay, it's just rumors, don't pay attention to them."

Shi Yunqing immediately got off the donkey along the slope and said with cupped hands, "Yes, Your Highness King Jin. Yunqing wishes His Highness King Jin all the best! Yun Qing will definitely hand over the affairs at hand to his colleagues clearly. I hope His Highness King Jin can rest assured."

The King of Jin, Xiao Sheng, had no great ambitions. He had already intended to reduce the cost of his staff due to the huge expenses. When he saw that he had made up his mind, he no longer wanted to retain him.

Although he was not good at anything else, he had a way of winning people's hearts. He ordered someone to bring an inkstone as a gift to Shi Yunqing and wish him the best in high school. This was the end of the employer-employer relationship.

Shi Yunqing took the inkstone, thanked him for his kindness, and left Jin Prince's Mansion.

The next day, Shi Yunqing unexpectedly met Shi Anrou.

The various branches of the Shi family are becoming increasingly alienated from the Hou Mansion. The Shi Yunqing family also has private contacts with Shi Chengyi, the uncle of the Hou Mansion, only because of their past friendship.

If An Rou hadn't accurately called his name that night, he wouldn't have known such a convoluted cousin even when walking on the road.

Shi Anrou came to the door accompanied by Liu's mother. Because she was a concubine, she could only enter through the side door.

The concierge went to inform Shi Yunqing, who was sorting out books, that a lady from the Hou Mansion came to see him and had important matters to discuss.

If it were in the past, Shi Yunqing would have gone to meet him out of etiquette to see what was going on, and he needed her, a girl who had not left the court, to come to her in person.

But yesterday's humiliation was still vivid in his mind. As soon as he heard about Miss Houfu, he was filled with anger. He felt like he had been slapped hard, and his face was still burning and hurting.

He responded coldly, "No!"

The concierge was about to turn around when he heard Shi Yunqing say, "Forget it, let's meet again."

He suddenly changed his mind and wanted to ask in person who was so shameless and life-threatening, shouting everywhere that his daughter wanted to be the Princess of Jin.

If this really happened, he would go to the elders of his clan to discuss it.

The Hou Mansion is shameless, so don't drag shameless people like them into shame!

When he was led to the side door, he was still a little confused as to why a concubine didn't come in through the front door but had to wait at the side door instead.

While thinking about it, I saw a tall and graceful girl standing in the wind and snow.
