Chapter 2
"I've caught my son-in-law! Where is Wu Ziang from Yangshuo? Hurry up and become the old man's son-in-law!"

"Qingzhou Liu Hengyan, marry my daughter, and I will give you Wanguan family property."

"Yingcheng Guoce, your family is poor, and you rely on your mother to weave cloth for your education. Now that you have passed the tribute exam, you should repay your mother. Being my son-in-law is the greatest repayment to your mother."

"Nanyu Zhao Kai, come into my Hong residence. From now on, I will take care of all your expenses in the capital and the money spent on managing relationships."

At the entrance of the etiquette department, after the announcement of the rankings was over, a group of wolf-like servants rushed out.

These servants, under the instigation of the wealthy Yuanwailang, quickly captured the target candidates.

Although this is a world where one can practice, not everyone can have the opportunity to acquire the cultivation method, let alone have the aptitude to practice.

However, the literary style of the Great Zhou Empire was at its peak, and scholars became officials and were respected by others.

Therefore, on the day when the list is released every year, many local tyrants and gentry will come to the list to catch their sons-in-law.

Of course, the children of the aristocratic family definitely look down on them.So their targets are limited to the children of poor families.

As long as the two parties reach an agreement, they hit it off.

It can also be regarded as a grand occasion of the Great Zhou Empire.

Every year, there are very few people from poor families who are promoted, and many wealthy people have their heads robbed because of this, and various benefits and benefits have also been raised.

After being elected, he will enter the court as an official, and it is inevitable to manage interpersonal relationships.

For the poor and the rich, it is a win-win situation where each gets what he needs.

Beside Yongsheng Street, in a narrow alleyway.

Kong Xiangde patted Li Qing on the back, laughed loudly and said, "Every time Shengjing releases the imperial examinations, it's always like this. It's really scary. Brother Li, you won't blame me for dragging you away and missing the rankings." A chance to catch a son-in-law?"

Li Qing shook his head with a smile. This Kong Xiangde was not like the hard-edged scholars he had come into contact with before, and he was not at all like the rigid descendants of the rumored Chinese saint. He was very funny and humorous.

It's just that the two of them ran at least two or three miles along the way. They have been studying for many years and have nourished their chest like a pillar, and their physical fitness is far beyond comparison.

This Kong Xiangde was neither blushing nor out of breath, and combined with his status as a literary sage family, he should have practiced.

"Brother Li, you don't have to feel sorry for this. I have a younger sister who is fourteen years old. Not only is she beautiful, but she is definitely a beauty. If Brother Li is interested, you can come back to Luzhou with me."

Kong Xiangde's tone seemed to be joking, but he really had this idea in his heart.

There are no distinctions among literary saints. Although Luzhou inherits the shadow of the saints, he does uphold the idea that there is no distinction between education and teaching.

Unlike other aristocratic families, they look down on poor families from the bottom of their hearts.

When encountering a poor family with real talents and learning, they will also try to win over them, and even recruit a son-in-law.

"Brother Kong was joking, I don't like young girls very much."

This world is a world where the weak prey on the strong. If there is a strong backing, Li Qing does not reject it.

Only 14 years old, he couldn't accept it at all.

"Oh?" Kong Xiangde's eyes lit up when he heard the words, his bright eyes stared at Li Qing closely, and he said excitedly: "I didn't expect Brother Li to have the same hobbies as mine, and I also like older ones."

At this moment, Kong Xiangde almost regarded Li Qing as a confidant.

It is so rare to find a confidant who also likes older age in this year.

"Brother Li, don't worry, my third sister is 23 years old, and she insists on finding a good husband who can make her admire in talent and learning, so that she is still in her boudoir and has not yet married. It meets Brother Li's standards!"

If he wanted to recruit Li Qing into the Kong family as his son-in-law before, he was joking.

But now Kong Xiangde is absolutely sincere and serious. He can not only solve the third sister's marriage problem, but also win over a great talent like Li Qing. It's like killing two birds with one stone.

Seeing Kong Xiangde's excited appearance, the corner of Li Qing's mouth twitched.

I don't like 14-year-olds, but I haven't said that I like people who are older than me.

And this age is 23 years old and still unmarried, do you really want to find a good man, not your own appearance or personality?

Before Li Qing could speak, suddenly a group of people rushed into the alley.

The leader was an old man in a green shirt with a goatee.

The old man was thin and thin, with sunken cheekbones, but his eyes were piercing, and the first impression he gave was that he was shrewd and capable.

"Young Master Li, Young Master Kong."

The old man bowed and saluted Li Qing and Kong Dexiang successively.

Li Qing and Kong Dexiang also hurriedly saluted.

"I've seen the elder, but I don't know who the elder is?"

The old man said: "I am the housekeeper of King Huaixin. Congratulations to Mr. Li for being a member of high school. King Huaixin always likes to get acquainted with scholars and scholars. I have specially sent you to Mr. Li's residence for a briefing."

He paused, looked at Li Qing, and said again: "My lord has something to say, I have a great opportunity to give to Mr. Li."

Li Qing looked at the dozen or so sturdy guards with weapons beside the old man, and nodded.

The other party is obviously coming towards him, and he can't hide for a while but can't hide for a lifetime.

It is not a good thing to reject King Huaixin, the younger brother of the current emperor.

"Brother Kong, today's Zhuangyuan Building, please forgive me, but I hope Brother Kong is happy."

Kong Dexiang waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's a real honor to go to Zhuangyuan Building to celebrate after the palace examination. Brother Li, just go. If you need help, just contact me."

With the background of Wen Sheng's family, he is really not afraid of a King Huaixin.

Kong Dexiang's words were obviously telling Huaixin Wang Li Qing that the Kong family was behind him, so don't do anything excessive.

After hearing this, the housekeeper stepped aside and said with a smile, "Mr. Li, please!"

"Brother Kong, farewell!" Li Qing bid farewell to Kong Dexiang with his fists cupped. Surrounded by the housekeeper and a group of sturdy guards, he boarded an exquisite and luxurious carriage and headed for Huaixin Palace.

On the carriage, Li Qing sorted out the information about King Huaixin.

The younger brother of the current emperor has an extremely noble status, and he has a deep brotherly relationship with the emperor.

Among the kings, the highest status, the fiefdom is also the most prosperous hinterland of the Zhou Dynasty.

There is a lot of information about King Huaixin circulating among the people, and almost the entire Great Zhou Empire knows that he is a refined prince.

He is good at poetry and books, and likes to meet literati and inkmen.

Scholars are often invited to hold grand literary meetings.

For this reason, the emperor specially built a huge attic for him, which was specially used to entertain literati and hold literary meetings.

It was also under the influence of King Huaixin that the students from the Huaixin fiefdom had sprung up like mushrooms in recent years.

Ninety-nine out of ten people in the world come from aristocratic families.

Ninety-nine out of ten of the underprivileged families in Zhongju came from the fiefdom of King Huaixin.

"I don't know why this King Huaixin is looking for me? Is it because the Lixian Corporal loves to make friends with scholars, or is there some other purpose?"

"What kind of big opportunity is he going to give me?"

Just as Li Qing was contemplating, the carriage stopped.

The housekeeper of Huaixin Prince's Mansion said respectfully outside: "Young Master Li, the Prince's Mansion is here, please get off the carriage."
