After wearing the book, I spoiled the powerful minister

On March [-]th, the Gongyuan in the capital city, as the night falls, there are young servants coming here to gather here one after another. The list will be posted early tomorrow morning. Most of the big families let the young servants come to occupy the seats in advance, so that they can see clearly the results of their father's and children's scientific examinations early. .

Elder Tao of the Taifu's Mansion also attracted people's attention. Luo Wenqian and Wang Yajie didn't have to go to the scene to squeeze with people. Even if they wanted to see the situation with their own eyes, they could wait for the crowd to disperse.

Chen Xiuyan prepared money and refreshments as usual for the provincial examination, and waited for the announcer to come to her door.

On the twelfth of March, Lao Tao and the others didn't go out after breakfast, Luo Wenqian waited calmly, and Wang Yajie was the most nervous.

"Brother Ziqing, what time did you say that the good news will come? Does anyone know that you live in the Taifu's Mansion?" Wang Yajie stood up after finishing speaking, "No, I'll wait in the front yard."

"Why are you in a hurry." Tao Lao rolled his eyes, "If you have that time, you might as well go to the backyard to study."

"Master, I'm just in such a hurry." Wang Yajie retorted mutteringly, he didn't dare to do it before, but now he may have seen the scene where Luo Wenqian ranting against Tao Lao, and he also drifted away.

"Who is in a hurry." Tao Lao blew his beard and stared, "The good ones don't imitate the bad ones, what do you talk back to your senior brother, they already have wives, do you have one? Learn from the good ones. "

"When I go back this time, my mother will make arrangements for me." Wang Yajie blushed slightly and said, "Last time my father wrote to say that he will be promoted this year, and he will find a good wife for me."

"Promise." Tao Lao scolded with a smile.

"Master, master, great joy, great joy." Butler Tao ran over directly from the front yard, announcing the good news loudly as he ran.

Tao Lao's eyes widened in surprise from being shouted at, but then he lay back on the chair comfortably and glanced at Luo Wenqian. Well, the person involved was calmer than himself, and his expression didn't change at all, which is self-confidence.

"I know I can get Huiyuan." Elder Tao grinned uncontrollably.

"How do you know this? But being on the list is a matter of confidence." Luo Wenqian stood up, teased the hem of his gown, and then took Chen Xiuyan's hand, "Lady, let's go ahead and have a look."

"Virtue." Tao Lao laughed angrily, and then rushed out of the main room before Luo Wenqian, and went to the front yard.

Wang Yajie was still in the room in a daze, he hadn't reacted yet, did he get the money?And it's not that there's no rush, why leave him alone now that everyone has run away, "Hey, wait for me."

The people who came to announce the good news didn't take it seriously at first, but they were stunned when they found the address and found it was the Taifu's mansion. Who asked Luo Wenqian to fill it in and wrote that it was the second home from the east of Fanghua Street in Chongwenfang.

Whoever self-reported that their family would write like this, especially if they lived in the capital in such a mansion or house, so even though Chun Wei’s No. No matter how strange Huiyuan is, one can be produced in the capital every three years. If you see too many, it will become dull. More yamen servants choose to go to rich families in high schools to announce the good news, and there are more rewards.

If others know that Huiyuan lives in Taifu's mansion, they will regret not rushing to announce the good news.

The Shuntian government servant who came to announce the good news was full of smiles, and stood outside the gate of Taifu's residence and waited respectfully. After a while, he saw Tao Taifu striding forward first.

"Master Taifu, congratulations, Master Wenqian of your residence is Huiyuan in high school." The yamen servant took out the victory report and congratulated loudly.

"Old Tao, give this little brother some tea money." After Tao Lao finished speaking, Butler Tao stuffed a purse into the yamen servant, and then distributed the happy money that Chen Xiuyan had prepared early in the morning to the curious pedestrians on the street outside the door.

"It's pretty good, and I'll take you out to meet people tomorrow." Tao Lao looked at Luo Wenqian with satisfaction on his face, and when he saw Wang Yajie who came running behind, he didn't forget to take it with him, "You silly boy will also follow us tomorrow. Go out, get to know more people, you are still young, as long as you can be a Jinshi in three years, the road ahead will be smooth."

"Thank you, master." After Wang Yajie finished speaking, he thanked Luo Wenqian, not forgetting to take the good news and study it carefully.

The servant from the Taifu's mansion also came very quickly, almost a quarter of an hour after the good news arrived, he returned to the mansion out of breath, drank a bowl of water, and went to the backyard to report the news.

"Master, Master Wen Qian is Huiyuan." The servant said happily.

"Master Yajie is still young, he will definitely be on the list next time." The servant did not forget to comfort Wang Yajie.

"The little one even copied a list back."

"Go and collect the reward." Tao Lao said with a big voice as he took the transcribed list.

"Well, the Duke of Zhen's mansion finally has someone who can support the family." Tao Lao smiled when he saw Tao Qianze, who was ranked third.

These days, Chen Xiuyan has finally sorted out Tao Lao's family members. Although Tao Lao didn't have a family, he did have brothers and sisters, but there is no one who is still alive. The current Zhen Guogong is the son of Tao Lao. Elder Tao also has a younger sister who married the previous Duke Zheng, who is now Elder Tao's nephew.

Chen Xiuyan felt that she was a bit out of her mind, but it can only be said that the relationship network in the capital is complicated, and if you count it up, you may be related.

"Youjin is so good, he got the second place in the exam, the same ranking as in the township exam." Wang Yajie stood behind Tao Lao and looked at the list, "Our Yijiang County is famous this time, and we will take the first and second place in the exam. All in our county."

"Hey, brother Huaiyuan also passed the exam." Wang Yajie danced happily when he saw that Yan was placed in No.15.

There are only a few people who know each other, and the rest of the names on the list are all unfamiliar, but we can tell a few origins from the surnames, for example, the surname Yuan, the Yuan family of the eldest son-in-law Yuan Chongming, and the Yuan family is still the Pingyang Houfu.

"Okay, get ready. It's time for guests to come to the door. I rejected people before, but this time I have to welcome them. My old bones are going to be exhausted." Tao Lao glanced at Luo Wenqian after he finished speaking.

"Thank you, master." Luo Wenqian stood up and saluted.

"It's only like this when I can be used." Although Tao Lao said so, the arc of his lips showed the joy in his heart.

"I'm sorry for your trouble, my lady." Luo Wenqian looked at Chen Xiuyan so hard that his eyes could be hooked.

Sure enough, she stood the whole time, smiled the whole time, saluted and returned the salute the whole time. I don't know how many people were greeted and sent away. Chen Xiuyan's face was stiff and her legs were a little soft. She had never looked forward to the dark so much.

When the sun was setting, Chen Xiuyan and his party finally had a warm meal. After they were full, Chen Xiuyan went to count today's congratulatory gifts and made a list.

The gifts received this time are much more exquisite and expensive than the ones in the provincial examination. Almost all of them are from Tao Lao’s face, and of course some are from Chen Xiu’s face. accounted for more than half.

Chen Xiuyan compiled the list and sent it to Mr. Tao for review.

"You don't need to show me, it's all for you." Tao Lao's atmosphere made Chen Xiuyan's fatigue of the day dissipate, no matter how hard it was, what came in was money.
