Chapter 364 – Li Zhenbao Returns to Secularism

April 18th, the Arts and Sciences Palace Exam release list.

Today is much more lively than the martial arts exams.

Qu Xiu won the thirty-eighth place, a scholar. Hu Jiwen two hundred and seventy-eight, the same as a scholar.

The people who looked at the list came back to report the good news, the Meng family are happy for Qu Xiu. Although Hu Jiwen did not do very well, but he only has that strength, he and the Meng family know.

The other big event that happened at the same time was suppressed by this big event, and not many people talked about it.

Yesterday night, the third daughter-in-law of the Jane family disappeared, it was a thief who sneaked into the house in the middle of the night, mesmerized the underlings and took away Jane’s third grandmother, Tang.

The Jian family guessed that it was the work of the “Yin thief” who had done many cases of eucalyptus, and also knew that Tang could not come back. It was impossible to investigate this matter secretly, and their family could not get any result from the investigation, so they reported it to the police the next day.

Lord Jane is the Ministry of Public Works Langzhong, Jane three grandma is also the sister of the Ping Wang side consort Tang’s, the county princess Li Qing’s full aunt.

Jiang Yishi and Meng Ruimo have gone to the Jane House to sympathize. According to the reasoning of this incident is not good to bother people, but Meng Ruimo is the general of the imperial army, the Jane family certainly hope that Meng Ruimo can help.

Meng family and Zheng family sent to the Xiangjiang River to investigate the flying thief Bai Chunnian’s people a month earlier has returned to the capital, brought back some news about Bai Chunnian and portraits. Bai Chunian had committed fourteen robberies, rapes and murders during his twelve years in western Hunan. The women he raped and killed were all daughters and young daughters-in-law of wealthy families. Because there was no other pattern to the eucalyptus, and he knew the art of disguise, he was so skillful that the government never arrested him.

Looks can be changed, but the body can not be changed. Bai Chunian is not tall and thin, similar to the person Jiang Da saw.

Although the few victims in the capital were all young daughters-in-law of wealthy families and no yellow-blooded girls, they analyzed this Yin thief as Bai Chunnian.

Since the beginning of April, the capital and the Ministry of Justice have sent out constables to search for people with Bai Chunian’s portrait, and so far they haven’t been able to find them.

Meng Ruimo told Mr. Jian’s father and son what crimes Bai Chunian had committed in western Hunan and promised that the imperial guards would also intervene in this case. The duty of the Imperial Army is to protect the Emperor, and part of their responsibility is to defend the capital.

At the end of the next day, the sun slopes to the west, Li Zhenbao and her group of carriages and horses traveling on the road back to the capital.

She completely returned to secularism today, and will not need to wear her hair and practice in Zhaomingan in the future. In the afternoon, she had a lunch fast with Mrs. Silent Cang who took good care of her and a few nuns, so she came back late.

Today she wore not a plain dress, it was a white moon sprinkled flower short jacket, a big red long skirt, and a single mule bun with a few jade hairpins inserted into it.

Joyful, colorful, but not lose elegance.

She also put on a tantalizing makeup, people become white, eyebrows become curved, small mouth red.

Li Kai’s mouth is like smeared with honey Meng praised his sister’s good looks, a rare and beautiful young lady. Although Zheng Yu did not say anything on her lips, her eyes were also filled with surprise.

Li Zhenbao, however, was dissatisfied with the makeup, which only added a little bit of color and did not change her appearance or temperament at all.

In the morning, she looked at the table full of scented cakes, rouge, eyebrow stones, lipsticks, and scented pouches filled with scented pills, and secretly skimmed her lips. In the future, she would not only develop cosmetics, but also invent makeup brushes, eyeliners, and lip liners, so that her face would be more three-dimensional, her nose higher, her eyes bigger, and her lips more shapely. Oh, and also invent high heels to make her stand more compatible with brother Zheng ……

Before entering the city gates, Li Zhenbao would not be able to lift the curtain of the car to look at Zheng Yu and swoon.

Zheng Yu would also look at her and smile, then raise his eyebrows and puff out his chest to show off his charm.

Little Jumbo was even more beautiful once she was dressed up.

Entering the city gates, I found that the streets were much more lively than in previous years when I entered the capital.

People are talking about the top scholar, the top student, the scout, which family has won a scholar, the liberal arts scholar seems to be less handsome than the martial arts scholar, and so on.

Jane three grandma looks how good-looking, the first two days on the street shopping powder store by Yin thieves see, tailed to the Jane House, in the middle of the night to snatch the person. Yin thieves are too scary, beautiful young women not only on the street to pay attention to safety, but also be careful at home …….

The topic of a more than one explosive, Li Zhenbao no longer have the heart and car curtains outside the Zheng Yu brow to brow, pointed ears to listen to the people’s discussion.

Mainly interested in the latter issue, there is also like to hear people praise Jiang Xun. That stand no stand phase sit no sit phase brat, only a few years time, actually became a young talent scout.

At 5:00 p.m., he came to the corner gate of Yong Wang Fu, the carriage was just about to enter the door, Yong Wang Fu and a eunuch with a duster walked out.

The eunuch bowed in front of the carriage door and smiled, “Sheriff Lord, the Empress Dowager invites you to the Ci Ning Palace for an imperial banquet.”

King Yong had a look of dismay. He thought that his daughter came back late today, and after eating at home the palace had already dropped the key, so he only had to go to the palace tomorrow. But did not expect the old mother to come back to rob people.

He suffered internal injuries and did not dare to say not to release people.

Li Zhenbao lifted the curtain, saw his father’s face was not worried, guessed his mind, smiled and got off the carriage.

The King of Yong saw such a bright and colorful daughter for the first time, his eyes looked straight.

Li Zhen Bao pulled his sleeve and pouted, “Father, my daughter has made you stupidly beautiful?”

King Yong looked at his daughter for half a quarter of an hour before he burst out laughing, “Hahaha, my daughter is so beautiful. I knew it, Bao’er is the most beautiful little maiden, only because she couldn’t dress up before, she covered up her splendor. Good, good, let your Royal Grandmother and Royal Uncle look happy and pleased. I’m also going to scold those few with foul mouths, heck, they didn’t bury my family’s Bao’er in the first place.”

Father and daughter said a few words, Li Zhenbao got on the car.

Zheng Yu is not good to follow into the palace, “I’ll send county princess here, tomorrow morning I’ll go to the camp.”

Li Zhen Bao lifted the car curtain and said, ”Can’t you send me to the palace? I’m off next year.”

The unwilling look and pissed off tone made Zheng Yu blush.

He laughed, ”I am a courtier, it is not good for me to enter the palace without a summons. I’ve been delayed for two days, and there are some things I need to take care of.”

Seeing the line of carriages and horses walking away, Zheng Yu cupped his fists and said, “Your Majesty, my humble servant takes his leave.”

King Yong laughed, “What’s the hurry? Bao’er is not here, but the king is still here. Go, accompany the king into the house to drink a couple of cups.”

The more he looks at Zheng Yu, the happier he is. Bao’er had only just returned to secularism, and he already had a son-in-law candidate. A son-in-law drinking with him is much more interesting than a son drinking with him.

Zheng Yu dismounted from his horse and walked with King Yong into the gate of the royal residence.

Zhen Bao county princess become beautiful to return to secular topic again in the capital rise, and force over this year’s temple examination, small daughter-in-law missing eucalyptus, became the first topic of discussion.

Some people said, the girl has changed, Li Zhenbao really become a big beautiful woman.

The vast majority do not believe, how is it possible, black skin, small eyes, garlic nose of the person how to change again can not become a beauty. It must be that Prince Yong wanted to find a good descendant for his daughter and let out such a wind.

Even these people had to admit that whoever married Li Zhenbao was marrying a Goddess of Fortune home.

These people also included Old Mrs. Jiang, who had a burst of ecstasy. Li Zhenbao has the best relationship with Maiden Xie, and is also familiar with Jiang Xun. Jiang Xun has never taken a daughter-in-law, is he waiting for Li Zhenbao to return to secularism?
