Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 798: Many Cheats 119
Needless to say, something must have happened in the palace during the time that Linlang gave birth and was in confinement. After all, such a long time had passed, and the fighting in the palace was so fierce, it was impossible for nothing to happen.

During this period, many people tried to attack Concubine Wang and her children. Of course, they all failed. Another prince was demoted to a bastard, and some concubines were banished to the cold palace or executed. It was a very tragic scene.

Outside the palace, there were also changes in the capital city - this year was the spring examination year, and Shen Yuanniang's husband should have passed the imperial examination this year, but... he failed.

This development obviously exceeded Shen Yuanniang's expectations. After all, why did she cancel her previous marriage and desperately marry her current husband, a bastard from the Loyal and Brave Marquis's mansion who was far inferior to her previous husband's conditions? It was because she knew that he would become a high-ranking official of the third rank in the future. Moreover, she also managed the connections of Concubine Wang in the palace, just to let her husband, with her help, reach a higher position at a young age in this life. Why didn't he pass the exam in this life? ! It shouldn't be! After all, if the bastard from the Loyal and Brave Marquis's mansion couldn't pass the imperial examination and become a high-ranking official, why would she marry him?

——Shen Yuanniang is the reincarnation of an ancient person, so she doesn’t know the saying, the butterfly effect.

She had made such a big change in the life trajectory of the loyal and brave uncle's son, and she still thought that his imperial examination results would be exactly the same as before? How could it be possible?

Linlang discovered that when Shen Yuanniang's husband failed to pass the imperial examination, Shen Yuanniang was obviously angry. Her attitude was no longer as gentle and considerate as before towards her husband. Instead, she couldn't control her temper and questioned him why he failed the exam.

Because of his unstable emotions, his usually gentle voice now sounded sharp because of the questioning.

Seeing Shen Yuanniang angry, the son of the loyal and brave uncle was puzzled and said, "I only took the exam twice, it's normal that I didn't pass. Many people can't even pass the imperial examination in their entire lives, let alone become a Jinshi. At least I'm already a juren."

Even with this, he is already one of the best in the capital. You know, there are not many children in the capital who are ambitious. After all, these days, if you are born in a wealthy family, you will definitely have a good future. Who would be willing to study hard and take the imperial examination?

Therefore, in such a wealthy place, those who can pass the imperial examination and become Jinshi, apart from anything else, must have first-class character.

You have to know that who can endure the hardship of studying when they have lived a life of luxury since childhood, and they have to take exams one by one. Even if they are blessed by their ancestors and do not need to take the examination for a scholar, they can take the examination for a juren directly based on their status as a descendant of a noble family. But at least they have to take the examination for a juren first and then for a jinshi, which is also very difficult. Just as what Zhongyong Bo Shuzi said, there are countless people who will never pass the examination for a juren in their entire life.

People from a family like theirs, as long as they pass the imperial examination, they will have a good future in the future - children from ordinary families, if they pass the imperial examination, can become a seventh-rank official in the future, at best; many people may never be able to become an official in their entire lives.

As for people from a family like theirs, there is no need to worry about not being able to get an official position. There will definitely be one. With the influence of the family, it will not be a problem for them to become a fifth or sixth rank official.

Although he is not well-known in the capital, he is still a middle-level official, which is not bad. At least he has a bottom line.

So the son of the loyal and brave baron, didn't understand why Shen Yuanniang was so upset. Not to mention that he only took the exam twice, even if he hadn't passed it, he would be able to become a fifth or sixth rank official in the future. Compared with other noble children in the capital, who had no official position at all and were just commoners, he was much better and more outstanding, right? So what was Shen Yuanniang dissatisfied with him?
Anyway, he felt that he had worked very hard. There were very few people in Beijing who worked as hard as he did. When other children were young and running around with others, he was studying in the study; when other children grew up and hung out in places of entertainment, eating, drinking and having fun, he was studying; and so on.

Even though he worked so hard, he was still criticized by Shen Yuanniang. It was no wonder that the son of the loyal and brave uncle was unhappy.

As a result, Zhongyong Bo Shuzi was unhappy, and Shen Yuanniang was even more unhappy. After hearing Zhongyong Bo Shuzi's self-satisfying words, she became angry and said, "How can you be satisfied with being a juren? With your ability, you can be a third-rank official, but if you fail the jinshi exam, you can't be a high-ranking official. With your ability, you should have been able to pass the jinshi exam this time, but you didn't pass. Don't you feel bad? You still think you are capable?!"

When Zhongyong Bo Shuzi heard Shen Yuanniang say this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You really think highly of me. Given my ability, I will definitely pass the imperial examination this time. I didn't even know I had such ability. Do you know how difficult it is to pass the imperial examination? There are so many top talents in the country, but only two or three hundred people are selected in three years!"

"…………" Shen Yuanniang was almost furious when she heard him say that, but she couldn't say that he had indeed passed the exam in his previous life.

Although she couldn't say such words, Shen Yuanniang was not the kind of person who would give up easily. She naturally kept muttering and complaining, which made Zhongyong Bo Shuzi feel worse and worse. He slammed the door and left, saying before leaving: "If someone fails the exam, their family will comfort them and not worry, and take their time. But you, not only don't comfort me, but you come back and scold me. Is there any wife like you?"

Although he slammed the door and left, he was not completely disgusted with Shen Yuanniang at that moment, so he did not run to the concubines and do anything to favor them to anger Shen Yuanniang.

But Linlang knew that if Shen Yuanniang continued to complain like this, the concubine's son, the Loyal and Brave Marquis, would not be able to bear it and would want to divorce her.

Meanwhile, Shen Yuanniang, who didn't think she was being too much, couldn't help but get angry when she saw that the son of the loyal and brave uncle actually dared to slam her door. She said, "How dare you get so angry when you didn't pass the exam!"

——But she never thought that her husband in her previous life had accomplished nothing, so would she dare to get angry with him.

In this life, he blames the loyal and brave bodhisattva for not passing the imperial examination.

The reason she dared to do this was because she was reborn and felt confident. If the illegitimate son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis treated her badly, she would divorce him and marry a better one. After all, she knew which men had average conditions now but would live a good life in the future. Even if it was her second marriage, it would not be difficult for her to marry someone with average conditions now but would live a good life in the future. So she naturally dared to speak loudly to the illegitimate son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis.

In her previous life, she didn't know how the future would develop, and she had no confidence. Naturally, she didn't dare to speak loudly to her husband, for fear of being divorced and not being able to find someone better than her husband.

In fact, it was Shen Yuanniang who had this idea, so the next time the concubine of the Zhongyong Bo failed to pass the imperial examination again, Shen Yuanniang scolded him even more harshly, causing their relationship to become worse and worse. The concubine of the Zhongyong Bo almost divorced her, but Shen Yuanniang felt that she could marry someone with better conditions than him, and she refused to compromise. The two of them had a quarrel for a while, and it was still the Earl of Jing'an who scolded Shen Yuanniang, saying that she had been determined to break off the engagement and marry the concubine of the Zhongyong Bo, but now that he failed to pass the imperial examination, he wanted to divorce him and marry someone else. With her temper, who would want her? If she wanted to divorce, he would drive her out of the house to prevent others from saying that he had a bad upbringing and raised such a daughter.
