The world of film and television begins with Ning'an as a dream

The emperor was still hesitating about how to choose the crown prince, but after hearing what Gu Tingye said, he had a rough plan in his mind.

The Crown Prince must be a principled person, or a relatively pure person. Being too smooth will definitely not do.

After letting go of his worries, the emperor smiled and said, "It's rare that you still have a sincere heart. In this case, I don't blame you for hiding your name. But the fact that you won the first place is a glorious thing. Do you want to inform your father?"

Gu Tingye hesitated for a moment, then said helplessly, "Your Majesty, I think I should find a chance to tell my father."

The emperor was even more impressed with Gu Tingye. He nodded and said, "In that case, you should go quickly. The other Jinshi are waiting there."

Gu Tingye was overjoyed and quickly bowed respectfully to the emperor, then said solemnly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

……

Gu Tingye originally wanted to wait until he was appointed as an official before going to his father to talk things out, but there was someone who was more anxious than him, and that was Man Niang.

Miss Wei saw that Gu Tingye had been poisoned by Man Niang and was basically hopeless, and she had no intention of developing a relationship with Gu Tingye.

She even left the Gu family that very night after Gu Tingye passed the imperial examination.

She had some money and had already bought a courtyard in Zhuxian Town, planning to live in seclusion there for a while before making plans for the next step.

Wang Yue didn't care about it. He just told Miss Wei when she said goodbye to him that she could go to Wang's Trading Company if she had any difficulties.

Seeing that Wang Yue did not force herself and really let her go, Miss Wei bowed to Wang Yue in gratitude, then said goodbye and left.

But the day after Miss Wei left, Man Niang took the opportunity to go to the gate of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion. She brought Gu Tingye's daughter with her and shouted that the child wanted to see her grandfather, just to ask Marquis Gu to let her live in the mansion.

The reason why she chose this time was because many people were waiting to pick a son-in-law from the list. If she didn't take action at this time, she would surely die without a burial place when those who wanted to pick a son-in-law took action.

Gu Tingye was also waiting to be appointed as an official. He was so happy that he forgot Wang Yue's instructions. As a result, his father and his men came to his house.

When Gu Tingye heard Shitou's call, he hurried from the backyard to the front yard. He originally thought something had happened, but he didn't expect to see Lord Gu standing in the yard, which shocked him.

But now he was already a first-class Jinshi, so he was naturally proud. He bowed respectfully to Lord Gu and said, "I wonder what brings me here, father?"

It was only after Man Niang went to visit the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion that Lord Gu learned from the bridesmaid that Gu Tingye had passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi under the pseudonym Bai Ye.

He never expected that his most useless son had secretly passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi, much more capable than his older brother.

He felt both happy and a little angry. His son was now taking the imperial examination under Bai Ye's name, which meant that he, his father, was not taken seriously at all.

Old Man Gu was very depressed, so he took his men and followed the bridesmaid to find Gu Tingye, wanting to ask his son for clarification.

When he saw Gu Tingye bowing to him and calling him "Dad", his arrogance came back and he scolded him in dissatisfaction, "You rebellious son, you are so unbearable that you even changed your name. I thought you didn't recognize me as your father anymore."

Gu Tingye was very sad to see that his father started to blame him right away and was not happy at all for him passing the imperial examination.

So, he said very seriously, "I have never thought of not recognizing my father, but my father has never thought of recognizing me as his son.

Since you think that my mother and I are stains on you, and my maternal family has ceased to exist, I will just continue the inheritance for the Bai family."

Lord Gu had never thought that Gu Tingye really wanted to inherit the Bai family's incense, so he shouted angrily, "Rebellious son! If that's the case, I will grant your wish, and I will have your name removed from the family tree later."

Gu Tingye looked at Old Man Gu in disbelief. He staggered and his heart sank.

He thought of Nanny Chang's description, saying that after his mother married the Marquis, the Marquis rarely treated his mother well and allowed the servants in the mansion to say that it was his mother who killed his eldest brother's mother.

Gu Tingye was extremely sad and felt sorry for his mother, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Since Daddy said so, then let Daddy do whatever he wants. It would be best if my mother is dug out from the ancestral grave and I can be buried next to my grandfather's grave!

Anyway, you have never looked at me and my mother straight in the eye, so why bother trapping my mother in the Gu family? Poor mother, she has no one to talk to. "

Lord Gu didn't expect that Gu Tingye would dare to talk back at this time, so he said angrily, "Okay! Okay, you've grown wings, so from today on you are no longer my son!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving behind Gu Tingye with tears on his face, Man Niang who was dumbfounded, and two confused and naive children.

Gu Tingye never expected that his father would be so heartless. He didn't really believe what Nanny Chang said and didn't think that the servants of the Gu family would target his mother so much.

But judging from his father's attitude today, maybe this is really possible.

After all, a family is headed by men. If the male head is dismissive of the female head, then the woman will have a hard time in that family.

Just like Sheng Hong, who favored his concubine over his wife in the Sheng family, if Wang Yue had not helped Madam Sheng solve her troubles, Madam Sheng might still be bullied by a concubine.

Thinking of this, he turned around and left without saying a word. He made up his mind from then on that he would just be Bai Ye.

However, Man Niang never expected that because of the incident she had caused, not only would she not be able to enter the Marquis' Mansion, but she would also cause Gu Tingye to break off relations with his father. From then on, she would be just an ordinary Jinshi, and would have nothing to do with the Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion.

She knew that after being appointed as an official, many of them had to suffer in remote counties. If Gu Tingye did not have the connections in Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, it would be very slow for him to be promoted.

The only way to get promoted quickly is to marry a strong wife. If he has a strong wife, then she, the concubine, will be in trouble.

Considering that Gu Tingye has an older brother who is targeting her, this possibility is very high.

When she thought of this, she looked at the two children, and made up her mind to pick up the younger one, take some of Gu Tingye's land deeds, and quietly leave while the mansion was in chaos.

Chapter 205 The Wedding!

When Wang Yue came to Gu Tingye to question him, he didn't know that Man Niang had left. He thought she had gone out for fun.

He said in disbelief, "Brother, are you saying that my father came to our house, and it was Man Niang who took the initiative to go to the Marquis' Mansion and tell him?"

Wang Yue saw that Gu Tingye still refused to believe it, so he said unhappily, "Why don't you send someone to the gate of Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion to inquire whether there is a woman with a child crying there?

Now everyone in the capital knows that Gu Tingye has a mistress outside and has two children. It is simply impossible to find a good wife for you!"

After hearing this, Gu Tingye thought of going to find Man Niang to argue with her, but after turning around, he did not see any trace of Man Niang.

Nanny Chang also realized this fact belatedly. She said uncertainly, "Sister Rong said that Man Niang took Brother Chang away early this morning. She didn't know where she went."

Gu Tingye hadn't realized that Man Niang had run away yet. He asked in confusion, "But what good will it do for her if she does this?"

Wang Yue saw that Gu Tingye couldn't figure it out, so he said with contempt, "You are the legitimate son of Ning Yuanhou Mansion, and now you have passed the imperial examination. I think there are many women from wealthy families who want to marry their daughters to you.

However, after what Man Niang did, any family that still cares about their daughters will definitely not marry them to you.

From now on, only daughters of lower status in the family or girls from small families will be willing to marry you.

Do you think these people can be a match for Manniang? She may not come back this time because she is worried that I will settle accounts with her. "

When Gu Tingye heard Wang Yue say this, he understood, but he still wanted to find Man Niang to explain things, so he hurriedly took people to look for her.

The group searched for a whole day but found no news about Man Niang. However, all signs indicated that Man Niang had left Tokyo.

After returning home, Gu Tingye, who was exhausted, said sadly, "Brother, it turns out that what you and Miss Wei said were right! No wonder Miss Wei left as soon as the date came. It seems that she also despises me."

Wang Yue was also angry, so he looked at Gu Tingye with contempt and said, "If you were not my second brother, I would not bother to care about you. I think what Miss Wei did was right. She doesn't like your character who can't distinguish between loyalty and treachery.

How many times have I told you to be careful of that Man Niang, but you just ignored me. Now, she got into trouble and left. You are in trouble now!"

After hearing what Wang Yue said, Gu Tingye gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, you must help me find her. I must find Man Niang back!"

Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "We have been looking for her for a whole day. We have searched almost all over Tokyo City but still can't find her. The people I sent to look for her in the surrounding areas also couldn't find her. You are a very capable woman. It may be difficult to find her."

Gu Tingye smiled awkwardly, and said helplessly, "Brother, your people are basically walking in towns. If Man Niang walks on the country roads, it will be difficult for you to find her."

Of course Wang Yue knew about this situation. He had already arranged people to go to various villages to inquire, but the speed might be slower.

He sighed and said helplessly, "You have to be mentally prepared. Although you will most likely be kicked out of the house, your stepmother and your brother will not let you stay in a comfortable job.

I guess this is also the reason why Man Niang ran away, because she knew in her heart that if you were kicked out of the house this time, you might end up staying in a county near the border.

However, I think this is a good thing for you. You are already skilled in attacking horses, and you may be able to make some achievements at the border."

Seeing that Wang Yue was still thinking about his future, Gu Tingye suddenly knelt down in front of Wang Yue, kowtowed vigorously, and then said solemnly, "Brother, I was wrong. I will listen to you in everything from now on."

He had used too much force just now and his forehead hit the bluestone. There was a loud thud and his eyes turned red.

……

Soon Wang Yue was no longer in the mood to care about Gu Tingye, because Minglan had already reached the age of 15 and he also had to plan his own wedding.

On the day of his wedding, Gu Tingye had already been assigned the official position of county magistrate in Yanmen, Daizhou.

You have to know that it is the most remote place, facing the invasion of the Liao people at all times. Being a county magistrate here, you may die at any time.

Although Gu Tingye had prepared himself mentally, he still felt a little heavy-hearted, but since it was Wang Yue's wedding day after all, he forced a smile and happily followed Wang Yue to welcome the bride.

Of course Wang Yue noticed Gu Tingye's expression and knew Gu Tingye's current situation, but he pretended not to see it, so as to teach this guy a lesson.

On the sixth day after Wang Yue's marriage, when Gu Tingye was still busy gathering with his classmates, Wang Yue brought Minglan to visit Gu Tingye's home.

The reason why Minglan was called over was because when Gu Tingye went north this time, Nanny Chang could not go with him, and she had to stay to take care of Gu Tingye's daughter, Sister Rong.

It’s not that Nanny Chang is unwilling to suffer with Gu Tingye, but Gu Tingye is worried about the safety of Yanmen and doesn’t want to let his daughter and Nanny Chang be in danger.

Gu Tingye had known that Wang Yue would come, but he didn't expect that Wang Yue had to wait so long to come. He knew in his heart that his elder brother must be angry, so he said with some shame, "Brother, you guessed everything right. I was actually assigned to Yanmen."

Wang Yue looked at Gu Tingye's decadent appearance and said unhappily, "Okay, things are not as bad as you think, and this was not your father's idea.

I got the news that your father did not cross you out of the family tree, but he became ill because of it, and your eldest brother and stepmother are now in charge of the family.

At the beginning, your stepmother and elder brother wanted you to go to Linzhou, which was adjacent to Western Xia and there were wars almost every day. They were determined to let you die there.

I asked someone to use his connections to arrange for you to go to Daizhou. If you behave well there, you might be able to get a wife, a blessing in disguise."

Gu Tingye heard Wang Yue say this and asked in confusion, "Brother, what's going on? Tell me in detail. They are both border areas, why is Daizhou better than Linzhou?"

Wang Yue sighed and said helplessly, "Because the border troops of Daizhou are led by Duke Ying, he is a straight-forward person and will not play any tricks. As long as you can take advantage of the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, he will definitely help you report to His Majesty, even if the provincial government above wants to stop it.

Another reason is that the Duke of England has a daughter who is about the same age as Minglan, and she just came of age last year. She is the Duke of England's daughter who came late in life, and he treasures her so much that he kept her for two more years. Otherwise, she would have been married off long ago.

If you can gain the appreciation of the Duke of England, you might be able to marry Miss Zhang. If you have Miss Zhang as the head of your family, then people like Man Niang won't be a problem to worry about."

Gu Tingye looked at Wang Yue with a strange expression and asked doubtfully, "Brother, how can you be so sure?"

Wang Yue knew what Gu Tingye was thinking, so he said unhappily, "I am your eldest brother. You are about to be expelled from the family, so of course I have to keep an eye out for a suitable woman for you. But you also have to perform well under the Duke of England. Only when you have achievements to show for yourself can I ask someone to help you with matchmaking."

Gu Tingye was originally very ambitious and wanted to marry a lady from a famous family. Now the target Wang Yue found for him was actually the daughter of a British duke. He smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed. He said happily, "Everything is up to you, big brother. I will definitely behave well."

Nanny Chang was very happy to see that Wang Yue had made such a good arrangement. She was silently praying in her heart that she would burn a few more incense sticks and ask her young lady to bless her little master and also bless her elder brother.

When Minglan first heard Wang Yue mention the daughter of the British Gong family, she was a little wary, worried that she was just one of the ones chosen by Wang Yue after screening.

But after listening to Wang Yue's explanation, she couldn't help but blushing. She originally thought that she could treat Wang Yue with respect, but she didn't expect that she would be jealous first, which made her somewhat ashamed.

Wang Yue I don't know what my new wife is thinking, he said very seriously, "After you go there, if you need anything, you can contact Wang's Business, you can write to me through them, there are special carrier pigeons there, the speed is much faster.

Sister Rong, you don't have to worry. I and Minglan are here, and Nanny Chang is taking care of you, so nothing will happen. As for your son, Brother Chang, I will also do my best to find him."

Gu Tingye quickly stood up, bowed to Wang Yue and Minglan respectively, and then said solemnly, "Thank you, brother, thank you, sister-in-law!"

……

Not long after Wang Yue and Minglan returned home, a guest came to visit. Wang Yue was quite familiar with this guest's brother. That guest was Wang Anshi.

The person who visited was Wang Anli, who took the exam together with Gu Tingye and was also officially granted an official position.

He was influenced by Wang Anshi, and this official position was not very good, but the officials who were offended by Wang Anshi did not dare to do anything too extreme, so Wang Anli's position was not as bad as imagined, at least much better than Gu Tingye's.

Not long after meeting Wang Anli, the imperial examination began. This time, Su Shi and Su Zhe from the Su family both had to take part in the examination, but Su Xun did not. He was directly granted an idle official position. For Su Xun, who had been pursuing an official position all his life, this was enough, after all, he was old.

That day, Wang Yue returned home from the palace. Minglan helped him undress and asked curiously, "Yuelang, how did the brothers of the Su family do in the exam this time?"

Chapter 206: Going to the palace to find out the truth!

Minglan has recently been hanging out with Su Shi and Su Zhe's wives, Wang and Shi. They have gradually become good friends, and Minglan begins to worry about her good friends.

She knew that Wang Yue was well-informed, so she wanted to ask Wang Yue to see if he had any useful information.

Wang Yue had heard some of it, so he smiled and comforted them, "You're worrying for nothing. Su Shi and Su Zhe have a good relationship with Lord Ouyang. Their positions will definitely not be too bad, at least better than Wang Anli's, not to mention Gu Tingye. Tell them not to worry."

Minglan felt relieved when she heard Wang Yue say that. She could finally have an explanation with her new friend, so she didn't ask any more questions. She quickly changed the subject and talked about some trivial matters at home.

Now Wang Yue's father and mother have left Tokyo to focus on their business, and they also intend to let the young couple have more contact.

Therefore, Minglan was in charge of welcoming and seeing off guests in the entire courtyard, as well as the management of the shop.

Although she had learned from the old lady, this was her first time practicing and she was somewhat confused.

Just as the two were chatting sweetly, to their surprise, the doorman came over to report that Aunt Ru'an, who was with Old Madam Sheng, was here.

After Wang Yue arranged for Ru'an to come over, he asked anxiously without waiting for her to bow, "But what's the problem with the old lady?"

Ru An quickly bowed to Wang Yue, and then explained, "The old lady is fine. She asked me to come and ask the Sixth Miss and the son-in-law to go back. There are other things to discuss."

Wang Yue frowned when he heard this. The old lady had never called them over after they got married. Only when they took the initiative to visit her would she happily receive them.

Minglan didn't know what was going on. Her face turned pale. She asked in a trembling voice, "Is the old lady really okay?"

Ruan shook his head and said solemnly, "Don't worry too much, young lady. The old lady is really fine. I just don't know why. I think you and your husband will know after you go there."
