Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 147
Chapter 147 It’s All Right
Since it was a poetry gathering, chanting poetry and painting were the main points. Finally, it was time for the poem to be written on the spot.
“Today, we will form our own team and choose the best team according to the questions.”
“What is the prize?” Before Wang Min could finish speaking, someone shouted.
Wang Min looked around and said, “A set of heads in the palace.”
Everyone knew that the Wang Clan had dealings with the nobles in the palace. There were a lot of things flowing out of the palace in Yu Linglong, so no one doubted Wang Min’s words.
“Qiao Qiao, let’s work together.” Kimberkin immediately pulled Qiao Yunxi.
“Add me.” Zhong Chenglin came to join in the fun.
Facing Qiao Yunxi’s disdainful gaze, Zhong Chenglin laughed and said, “There is no limit to the number of people anyway. There is not much more than me. Besides, I think I am the most talented person in our team.”
After saying that, she shook the folding fan in her hand coquettishly.
The drawing of lots was very simple. Each team chose a captain and drew lots in the box.
Qiao Xi was very lucky to get the signature for “Composition of Poems”.
There were also Wang Min and Sun Xian.
Speaking of which, he had no choice but to talk about the rules of the topic.
The questions were divided into several groups. Each group was different, but there were three of the same questions. This was also the reason why Qiao Yunxi, Wang Min, and Sun Xian clashed with each other.
“Alright, Qiao Qiao?” Jin Baijin looked at the question and asked nervously.
“No.”
“Then what should I do? How about I buy some?”
Tyrants are simple and rough.
Qiao Yunxi winked at the two of them, and the three of them surrounded the city in a corner.
He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to the two of them.
“Qiao Qiao, so you came prepared!” Jin Baijin was relieved. He still knew how to recite, dictate, and so on.
Three groups of seven people stood at the long table in unison.
Qiao Xi slowly drew on the rice paper.
Wang Min and Sun Xian moved quickly. After the two of them stopped writing, Qiao Yunxi pretended to toss around for a while before putting down the pen.
Very quickly, the works of the three teams were displayed together.
Qiao Xi smiled when she heard someone shaking her head and reciting the poems of Wang Min and Sun Xian.
Qiao Ningdai gave her a total of two poems, which were written by Wang Min and Sun Xian respectively.
What a coincidence.
Did they also buy poems from the Headmaster of the clan?
It was exactly the same as what Qiao Ningdai had bought.
This silver is easy to earn.
“What’s going on?” Someone asked softly.
Wang Min and Sun Xian’s expressions were very ugly.
Everyone knew how to operate the poetry gathering in the circle. There were people who wrote poems and songs in advance.
I’ve seen people bumping their clothes, I’ve seen people who haven’t bumped their poems.
He didn’t know who he was looking for to write it, but he didn’t have any professionalism at all, and he actually sold more poems.
Jin Baijin rolled his eyes and immediately understood the curve in the middle. “Qiao Qiao, you were framed? Who gave it to you?”
Qiao Yunxi should have known about the situation long ago, so he gave the two poems to him and Zhong Chenglin.
Wang Min and Sun Xian didn’t expect that even if they wanted to explode, they wouldn’t be able to find a suitable reason.
After a short moment of silence, the competition continued and everyone stiffly changed the topic.
…
“Da da da da.”
The carriage faced the morning rain and slowly moved forward on the bluestone road.
A group of people wearing a raincoat could vaguely see the sword beneath the raincoat.
The murderous aura in the mist grew stronger and stronger.
The carriage that was surrounded in the middle staggered. Its entire body was pitch black, without any special signs. It was even the most common type in terms of specifications, and it couldn’t be seen who it was.
“Creak–”
The thick city gate slowly opened under the washing of the morning rain. Before the guard could say anything, he saw a golden light flash past in the dawn. He instinctively knelt down and did not dare to look closely.
The troop passed him, splashing mud all over the ground. They didn’t dare to wipe the mud off their faces, and the soldier crawled on the ground.
A long, short wait.
The troop flew past.
“I, I didn’t see wrongly, did I? That token is …”
…
Qiao Manor.
Qiao Jinwen wasn’t affected by the fight with Qiao Yunxi.
She knew in her heart that Qiao Xi was no longer the Qiao Xi that she could easily handle.
Haha, a dying person is not worth her attention.
Put down the brush, when the ink is dry, fold it and put it in the envelope. “Send it to the capital immediately.”
That’s right, this is a letter for Gu Sheng.
Ever since Gu Sheng had delivered the items twice, she would send messages to Gu Sheng through the Zhong family every once in a while. Although the other party did not reply, Qiao Jinwen knew that Gu Sheng had memorized every word she wrote. Otherwise, she would not have delivered the items to Gu Sheng.
However, it had already been a while since the last time she had delivered the items. There had been no movement for so long, so she was somewhat restless. Moreover, the last time she had delivered the items, there was also a portion from Qiao Yunxi.
Even though Qiao Xi’s hands were full of defective products, she still felt very uncomfortable in her heart.
“Miss, madam is here.” Before the maidservant could finish her words, Xue Tao came in.
“Mother, why are you here?” Qiao Jinwen hurriedly stood up and helped Xue Tao sit down.
Xue Tao was in a good mood. “Mother came over to take a look. My son has worked hard these past few days.”
“For Fourth Fang, what my daughter has done is nothing. I’ve learned these rules from Mammy since I was young. I don’t feel tired. I’m very happy to be able to work for Fourth Fang.”
“San’er, you must be very strange. Your previous rules were learned from Mammy in the palace. Why did mother want you to learn them again?”
Qiao Jinwen was naturally surprised.
She knew that she was the legitimate daughter-in-law of the Qiao Family, and the fourth wife was the only daughter-in-law of the Qiao Family. Therefore, her grandmother and mother treated her strictly for her own good. In the future, she would marry into a large family.
She learned those rules very well.
Grandmother and mother suddenly asked her to learn it again, and invited the stricter Mammy. She had a faint premonition, but she was so excited that she didn’t dare to confirm it.
Xue Tao patted Qiao Jinwen’s hand and said earnestly, “You are Mother’s daughter. Mother naturally wishes you well.” Mother has never concealed anything from you about our fourth bedroom. As you know, your previous teacher, Mammy, was recruited by Mother with great difficulty from the palace to train the palace maids. Don’t look like you’re training servants, but who doesn’t know that the rules in the palace are big? If anything goes wrong, you’ll die. You knew from a young age what mother expects of you. During this period of time, our Fourth Fang and Wang Clan have traveled frequently, and your father and Wang Qi have even formed an alliance. The Wang Clan does pawnshop business. They have contacts with the nobles in the palace and have done a lot of things for them over the years. Your father and the Wang Clan are working together because they want our Fourth Fang to rise to prominence. ”
Qiao Jinwen had many questions, but she didn’t ask any further.
Xue Tao was very satisfied with her daughter’s intelligence. “Details, mother will explain to you in detail in the future. The mammy that mother invited this time is specifically for teaching the young masters of the palace.”
“Mother” Qiao Jinwen’s eyes lit up.
‘”This is something that Mother invited with great difficulty. Follow Mother and learn from her. Your father has a dinner party today, and he invited the nobles of the palace. Your father said that he would arrange a meeting between you and the nobles if he had the chance.”
“Mother” Qiao Jinwen was so excited that she couldn’t help but feel excited.
“You are a clever man, Mother needn’t have said anything so thoroughly, This time, it’s the Third Prince. We don’t have much business contact with the court. However, mother also knows that the Third Prince is the most popular and most likely to become the Crown Prince. If you can enter the Third Prince’s eyes and have a bright future, it will depend on your good fortune. Your father, your grandmother, and I will definitely spare no effort to help you. You and your brother are complementary. If you can help your brother’s career, your brother can also become your pillar in the future. I won’t tell you more about these long-term matters. Let’s start with the nearest one step at a time. Mother is not giving you pressure. It’s best if you can succeed. If you can’t, it doesn’t matter. We have other ways. “However, personally, I hope that you will have a good marriage and a good future. You don’t need to look at people and be restricted by them.”
Seeing that Qiao Jinwen lowered her eyes in embarrassment, Xue Tao deliberately teased her before continuing, “Mother doesn’t give you any pressure. Prepare yourself for the next two days.”
…
Lion House.
This was Fourth Master Qiao’s property, and it was also Fourth Master Fang’s property.
Lions House is closed today.
Third floor, private room.
Fourth Master Qiao stood below, burying his head and looking at his toes. He was so excited that he almost couldn’t control himself. If the pressure above his head hadn’t caused him to suffocate more and more, he would have almost forgotten the danger.
Wang Qi stood side by side with him. Compared to his excitement, Wang Qi was obviously much more cautious.
The man in the main seat took in all of their performances. His dark eyeballs twitched in ridicule, and the corners of his eyes were habitually filled with contempt.
Her slender fingers held the tea cup and spun around. Her translucent white fingertips echoed the green glaze. Just a casual glance made people unable to move their eyes away.
“Sit down and talk.”
The four words immediately relieved the aura of the low pressure in the room, and Fourth Master Qiao heaved a heavy sigh of relief.
This was the deterrent power of the superior.
Fourth Master Qiao had specially sent people to investigate this Third Prince.
The Third Prince was the most beloved son of His Majesty, and he was also the most popular and most likely candidate to become the Crown Prince.
Imperial Noble Consort Cao and His Majesty were childhood sweethearts. They had known each other in the Imperial College. Imperial Noble Consort Cao was the attendant of a certain princess at that time. If it weren’t for the fact that Mother Imperial Noble Consort Cao’s family background wasn’t high, with her and His Majesty’s affection, the Empress would have been possible.
Imperial Concubine Cao was also formidable and could endure it.
From the concubines of the Prince’s Mansion, to the side concubines of the Crown Prince’s Mansion, and then to the noble concubines of the Imperial Palace’s backyard, they climbed up step by step and paved the way for prosperity with tears of blood.
The more tribulations he experienced, the more he knew how to plan and calculate, and the more willing he was to choose.
Fourth Master Qiao felt that he had chosen the right path.
Throughout the princes, no matter if it was the prestige of the court or the reputation of the people, the Third Prince was the one with the most divine heart. In order to accumulate the reputation and achievements of the Third Prince over the years, the Third Prince had been assigned many missions. The Third Prince had even learned to review memorials. Such an obvious hint could be said to be 100% complete in Fourth Master Qiao’s heart.
