Chapter 739: San Yuan and No. 1

There were many servants standing in front of the Xia family’s door.

Last time, the gatekeeper reported that the young master had taken the Huiyuan examination and received a reward. Everyone was waiting for it.

This time, the entire Xia family was watching young master Jiang’s court examinations.

The old Madam had already sent her maidservants to ask several times, but when they learned that the news had not come out yet, they all returned in disappointment.

Every family and Manor had sent people to guard the palace gates. It just so happened that the new emperor had ascended the throne, so the students who graduated this year would probably be put in an important position by the new emperor.

This was a huge stroke of luck.

“Are there any results? Any news?”

“Not yet. I’ve sent people to stand guard in front of the Imperial Palace. It was said that the eunuch from the palace had come out, but the top three had not been announced to the public.” The gatekeeper waited anxiously until a low-key carriage arrived in front of the gate.

She stretched out a white arm and lifted the curtain.

A woman in a Palace dress gently got off the carriage. She turned around and bowed respectfully, helping a seven-year-old girl get off the carriage.

“Lady Jiang is back. Quickly report to the old Madam.”

The gatekeeper was overjoyed. The new emperor had ascended the throne, and this miss Jiang was the new emperor’s darling.

When the Jiang family returned to the mansion and came to the Xia family to seek refuge, who would have thought that this day would come?

Lulu followed the servant into the Xia family’s residence. Jiang Huai ‘an happened to be in the residence today.

“It’s good if brother Huai ‘an can get into the top three, he can finally bring honor to the family. It’ll be a good marriage.”

His second aunt sighed.

“The results are not out yet, second aunt.” Jiang Huaian said with a smile.

“With your talent, you’ll definitely be able to get into high school.” Second aunt was full of certainty. No matter if it could be successful or not, it was a happy thing to have a good ending.

Madam Xia’s heart relaxed slightly, and she looked in Huai ‘an’s direction with a little guilt.

Jiang Huaian was already sixteen.

Most of the sons of the noble families in the capital would be engaged at the age of fifteen.

In fact, she had visited them a few times last year, and she had befriended the Jiang family and the ladies with her handkerchief. Now, they were all smiling and not saying anything.

Even so, she didn’t dare to ask for a legitimate daughter, and only wanted to ask for a concubine’s daughter who knew her background.

It would be a lie if the Xia Corporation said they weren’t disappointed.

Many madams and families had their own problems, and she had helped the Jiang family a lot back then.

Now that the Jiang family had collapsed, the only child left seemed to have lost all of their past sentiments with time.

The Xia family didn’t say these words to the two children, for fear of hurting their self-esteem.

“Why is the result not out yet? I heard that the sky has not brightened yet, so the various manors have sent people to guard the palace gates.” The old lady held the Buddha beads in her hand and kept saying ‘Amitabha’.

As Lulu entered the house, the carriages of gifts he was pulling also arrived.

“Big brother, Lulu is here to give you a gift.” The little girl smiled as soon as she entered the door.

Today, she was wearing a peach-red dress, and the corners of her dress fluttered as she walked. She didn’t know if it was because she was spasming, but her body actually seemed to have grown a little.

“You’re too early to bow. The results haven’t even come out yet.” Jiang Huai ‘an couldn’t help but laugh. He couldn’t help but feel emotional when he saw his sister’s expression.

This girl was really made of gold, silver, and precious stones.

“They left earlier because they didn’t dare to announce the decree before Lulu,” Lulu grinned.

“It was Lulu who held the Jade archive and stamped it.” Lulu’s words silenced the room.

“You said … What?” The old lady did not hear it clearly and was shocked.

“Lulu’s home, so the one announcing the Imperial decree must be here soon. Big brother, hurry up and go to the front yard.” Lulu waved her hand nonchalantly and climbed onto a chair. The palace maid then poured her some tea.

As soon as he finished speaking.

Clang.

The gatekeeper rushed in.

“Old Madam, first Madam, young master Jiang, the person to announce the Imperial decree is here. Quickly go to the front yard to receive the decree.”

Everyone looked at Jiang huailu.

She, stamped it?
