Chapter 172 Isn’t he the son of destiny?
And all these differences started from the provincial examination. No, in fact, it was not smooth at the beginning because Bai Zhaozhao refused to get engaged to him and refused to give him the spiritual object!
Otherwise, he would definitely score better than Bai Lin!
"System, didn't you say that I would be the lucky child of the entire world if I had you? But look at me now. I have worked so hard to become a fifth-rank official!"
In fact, this is not the first time Cheng Jiayu has complained. Every time the system would give some suggestions, but this time, the system was unusually silent.
After a while, the system slowly said: "Perhaps you are not the lucky child of this world, but I found the wrong person!"
Cheng Jiayu shuddered after hearing this. What does this mean? Is the system saying that it recognized the wrong person? Then what? Change the host? No, how can this be possible?
Cheng Jiayu was a little flustered. Although he always felt unsatisfactory, he knew very well that if he left the system, he would be nothing. At best, passing the imperial examination would be the pinnacle of his life.
Suddenly, his reason returned. Even though he was only a fifth-rank official now, he was still young and much better than most Jinshi scholars! Whether it was managing personal connections or making achievements, it was the system that helped him take shortcuts. If the system left him, wouldn't he be like Bai Lin, who forgot about food and sleep and couldn't even touch a woman?
"System, I remember you said that we are soul-bound, right?"
"Yes, host! Unless you die, it will cost a lot to unbind you!"
"Okay, in this case, none of us has a way out, so let's cooperate!"
"Okay, host."
Cheng Jiayu breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the room and went to Chen Wei's room.
Chen Wei already knew that the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion was gone, but she was not sad, because on the surface she was a concubine of the mansion, but in reality she was a slave, and in the end she became a tool for Chen Tianlin to get promoted!
She didn't know if her father had a change of heart before he died and gave her a chance to live. Now it can be considered a blessing in disguise. She was very glad that she had escaped the disaster and was also very grateful to Cheng Jiayu for recognizing her status as a concubine.
So when she saw Cheng Jiayu coming over, she quickly stood up and poured tea while whispering, "Master, can't you sleep? How about I give you a massage?"
"Yeah." Cheng Jiayu responded and sat down, feeling the beating on his knees. After a moment, he whispered, "Xiao Wei, this is it. Although I acknowledge your status as a concubine, there is no document to take you in as a concubine, and I haven't married a wife yet, so this status cannot be determined for the time being..."
Chen Wei said with a little grievance: "I know what you said, as long as you want me, I will serve you well!"
As she spoke, Chen Wei's hands slowly kneaded Cheng Jiayu from his knees upwards and reached into his robes until her hands were a little sore. Only then did Cheng Jiayu sigh with satisfaction: "Put him down!"
Chen Wei nodded shyly and went to bed with Cheng Jiayu. Maybe she was still a little uncomfortable and asked Cheng Jiayu to teach her from time to time.
Cheng Jiayu experienced a different feeling, because he did not use filters to control Chen Wei, it was Chen Wei herself who became aware of the current situation. She used to have a sadness that she had to succumb to fate, but now she was completely conquered by him, which made him feel unprecedented satisfaction.
If...if he were to be granted a title of nobility and appointed as prime minister, would Bai Zhaozhao also surrender like this?
Will!
At the same time, Bai Zhaozhao, who was practicing martial arts, suddenly felt a chill.
"Ah sneeze!"
Bai Zhaozhao sneezed. Could it be that someone was thinking about her? Or was someone plotting against her?
Humph, forget about thinking about her, but if she wants to talk about scheming, she really thought of someone. They haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's time to settle the accounts!
Prince Rui's Mansion.
Princess Rui was a little dazed after learning about Concubine Xu's embarrassment of Bai Zhaozhao. How could this woman be so powerful that she could escape like this? It can be seen that she is a smart and agile person and should not be underestimated!
But according to the information she found, Bai Zhaozhao was an abandoned baby. After being adopted by the Bai family, she learned some medical skills and treated some minor illnesses for the villagers. She was an ordinary person from childhood to adulthood, and there was no possibility that she was Prince An's illegitimate daughter!
Later, Chief Bai founded the Baiji Workshop, which became bigger and stronger, making the Bai clan members rich, and Bai Zhaozhao was adopted into the direct branch.
There are two rumors about this. One is that the formula of the medicine was made by Bai Zhaozhao, while the other is that it was actually a high-ranking official of the Bai family's ancestor who left behind several secret recipes for future generations, but he used Bai Zhaozhao's name to cover them up.
There are many people who believe the latter statement. After all, no one wants to believe that a teenage girl can achieve such an achievement.
Originally, Princess Rui believed the former more, because in her opinion, capable people have nothing to do with age, and there are many people in history who suddenly shine.
But now that Concubine Xu had made such a fuss, she began to believe the latter. No matter how powerful he was, it was impossible that he could not be comparable to the imperial physician, right?
"Mother." Su Ling stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for Princess Rui.
"Hmm." Princess Rui took a sip and said, "Don't mess with Bai Zhaozhao anymore. The Queen has already told me. Do you understand?"
Su Ling secretly clenched her fingers: "Yes, mother, I haven't been out recently, not even to the palace banquet!"
Princess Rui sneered, "What? You hid it from me? Do you think you were being very secretive? The Chen family was too stupid to notice you. If Jingzhao Yin investigates the rumors, you will definitely not be able to escape. You might even get a name from the emperor."
Su Ling quickly knelt down and said, "My daughter knows she is wrong! My daughter was just jealous of Bai Zhaozhao for a moment and wanted her to marry into Dingyuan Marquis's mansion... I didn't... I didn't mean to harm her!"
"Alright!" Princess Rui said bluntly, "So what if you want to harm her? First of all, you should consider your own abilities! I've told you a long time ago that if you are not sure of killing her with one strike, don't act rashly.
You force her to get married by spreading rumors simply because you want to show off and mock her in front of her, and enjoy the feeling of being on top while she is stuck in the quagmire.
I tell you, this is the stupidest idea. Even if you succeed, she may still make a comeback. But if you fail, she will become even more of a demon in your heart and keep you awake at night!
Therefore, a true master never cares about a clown jumping around, but makes him shut up forever when he threatens him! Do you understand? "
Su Ling's eyes flashed with confusion. Was Princess Rui willing to teach her how to do things? But then she came to her senses. Princess Rui clearly disliked her shame and told her not to have such stupid ideas of stepping on others in the future.
Su Ling suppressed her anger and said softly, "Yes, mother!"
Princess Rui looked like she hadn't heard him. Forget it. As long as there was marriage value, she wouldn't expect anything else. So she waved her hand irritably and said, "Go down!"
Su Ling: "Yes, mother."
