Chapter 141 High School

Luo Yannian bowed his head, not daring to speak. Many speculations flashed in his mind, but he couldn't figure out why the crown prince, who had nothing to do with him, wanted to see him?
The prince pointed to the chair beside the soft couch: "Sit."

"Thank you, Prince." Luo Yannian sat lightly as he said.

"I heard that 'Le Quan Xiangjun' is your relative?"

As soon as Luo Yannian sat down, the prince asked.

Luo Yannian's heart tightened, he stood up and replied, "Prince, 'Lequan Township Lord' is Yannian's cousin."

"Don't be nervous, sit down and talk." The prince's tone sounded quite easy-going, but Luo Yannian didn't know why he broke out in a cold sweat.

Maybe it's because the prince mentioned his cousin for no reason?

Pointing to the tea set in front of the soft couch, the prince asked, "Can you make tea?"

"A little bit." Luo Yannian replied honestly.

In the past, every time my grandfather came back from traveling, he would bring some good tea with him. In order to honor his grandfather, who was rarely seen, he specially asked his grandfather to teach him how to make tea.

Luo Yannian's nerves were tense all the time, fearing that he might mispronounce half a word, or do something that would disgust the prince, causing death to his cousin, or even the whole family.

But the prince seemed to be casually chatting with him, asked some irrelevant questions, and then let him leave.

Luo Yannian held on, and almost collapsed as soon as he got out of the "Baiweilou". Fortunately, Tang Liang was there to support him.

"Son..."

"Go back to the inn first." Luo Yannian didn't dare to talk nonsense because he was worried that the prince's people would be watching him nearby.

As soon as he returned to the inn, Tang Liang couldn't help asking: "Young Master, what does the Crown Prince want from you?"

Look how frightened his son is like this.

Luo Yannian thought about it carefully: "The prince didn't say anything."

This is what makes him most worried, because the first thing the prince asked was his cousin, he couldn't figure out what the prince meant.
Luo Yannian thought about it and wrote a letter to Wen Nuan, telling Wen Nuan that the prince summoned him today.

On the day the list was released, the list was crowded with people who came to see the list, many of whom were servants of honorable families.

Luo Yannian and the few remaining candidates who thought they had done well in the exam also squeezed into the crowd.

Tang Liang carefully protected Luo Yannian from being injured, and at the same time led them to squeeze inside.

"I hit! I hit!"

Some students cried and laughed and shouted.

Of course, there are also those who didn't see their names and left in a daze.

"My lord, you won!" Tang Liang suddenly shouted excitedly: "Look, it's the No. 20 eight!"

This ranking is very high!
Luo Yannian, who had already been squeezed to the front, followed Tang Liang's pointer to look at the list, and smiled happily.

bingo!

He really is in high school!

He has the confidence to propose to his cousin!

"Congratulations, Brother Luo." Several other candidates congratulated Luo Yannian one after another, and then went back to search for their names on the list.

Luo Yannian suppressed the turmoil in his heart and helped them find it with Tang Liang.

"Brother Yang, you won too!" Luo Yannian shouted, pointing at the last name on the list.

This Yang Juzi was very disappointed when he saw that his name was at the bottom.

Almost failed.

The other candidates didn't see their names, and became more and more anxious.

Luo Yannian looked at it two or three times and did not find other people's names, so he was sure that they had failed the exam.

"Several virtuous brothers, don't be discouraged. It's normal to fail the exam once. You virtuous brothers will come back in three years. I'll wait for you virtuous brothers!" Luo Yannian encouraged the candidates who failed the exam, but his words seemed a little pale.

These candidates were disheartened, their family circumstances could not allow them to wait another three years, if they hadn't picked up the carriage of Luo Yannian's family when they came to the imperial city this time, they wouldn't be able to come to the imperial city in time before the exam.

Looking at the few people who failed the ranking, Juzi surnamed Yang felt a lot less lost in his heart.

Compared to them, I am considered lucky, at least on the list.

Luo Yannian's high school excitement was slightly dampened by the failure of several other students.

Tang Liang's sharp eyes noticed a few guards on the other side squeezed into the crowd and approached them quietly, and hurriedly pulled Luo Yannian away: "My lord, let's go!"

Luo Yannian didn't know how many people were there, so he could only follow Tang Liang and squeeze outside.

"Young Master Luo, please stay -"

Shouts came from behind.

"Tang Liang, someone called me."

Luo Yannian was worried that the few people behind who were the prince would annoy the prince if he left here.

"Go, don't look back!" Tang Liang pulled Luo Yannian away faster and faster.

Luo Yannian still trusted Tang Liang. Although he didn't know what happened, he still squeezed out desperately after hearing what he said.

After returning to the inn, Luo Yannian asked out of breath, "Tang Liang, what happened just now?"

Several other people also wiped off their sweat and looked at Tang Liang wonderingly.

"My lord, I'm telling you the truth, I hope you don't blame me." Tang Liang said cautiously.

"What stupid things are you talking about? Can I blame you?" Luo Yannian said angrily and amusedly.

Tang Liang chuckled: "My lord, if you hadn't left just now, you might already be the son-in-law of some court official."

Luo Yannian was stunned for a while, and then secretly thanked himself for running fast.

The only person he wanted to marry was his cousin from beginning to end, how could he be someone else's son-in-law?
"Get a son-in-law under the list?!" Several other people were also stunned, and then accused Tang Liang: "Tang Liang, we really have to talk to you about this matter, you shouldn't have dragged Brother Luo away just now!"

The few of them are already married, even if they are not married, they still have self-knowledge, it is impossible for the court officials to recruit son-in-laws to fancy them.

Therefore, they really felt sorry for Luo Yannian.

"Everyone, don't say that about Tang Liang." Luo Yannian said firmly, "I, Luo Yannian, will not be someone's son-in-law."

No matter how high the other party's official position is, it is impossible for him to marry their daughter!

"Brother Luo, you've been so smart all your life, you've been confused for a while!" The others were anxious for him: "If you marry the daughter of a high official in the court, your future official career will be smooth and smooth, and you will avoid many detours!"

Luo Yannian was unmoved, and said calmly: "Only by my own ability can I feel at ease."

Several people looked at Luo Yannian like a fool, then shook their heads helplessly.

Don't take shortcuts, but choose the most difficult path!
It's silly enough!
Luo Yannian also knows that he has no background and no backer, and his career in the future will definitely be difficult, but he has his own beliefs. He never thought of relying on nepotism to pave the way for his career, even if he doesn't have a cousin!
Several people were talking in the room, and the innkeeper shouted respectfully from outside: "Luo Gongshi, the people in Cheng Dashi's mansion, please go downstairs and meet me."

Bachelor of Cheng University?

Isn't it the examiner this time, his tutor?
Luo Yannian didn't dare to be negligent, hurriedly straightened his clothes, and went downstairs quickly.
