The forced marriage failed, but the poor boy turned around to exorcise demons and save people

Chapter 9 What is the use of the imperial examination?
"Song Zhiqing, no matter how good you are at studying, what's the use? Now you're twenty and you can't even pass the exam for a boy student!"

"Haha, he is so poor now that he can't even afford to study, so why should he take the exam?"

"Don't talk about going to school, he is too poor to even get a wife. But next month, it won't be bad to get a wife without even having to pay a betrothal gift, hehe!"

"Tsk, how good are you at being a daughter-in-law who doesn't have to pay a bride price? I'm afraid she can't do anything except go to bed and have babies!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Song Zhiqing had just walked out of the bookstore and met several former classmates at the entrance of an alley.

The leader who spoke was dressed in brocade, with rings around his waist, holding a fan in one hand and smiling happily.

Song Zhiqing narrowed his eyes and put down his backpack while they were talking.

"Haha, look, he put down this broken backpack. What is he trying to do?"

"Song Zhiqing, if you come and carry my shoes, I might still be able to..."

"Bang!" He grabbed the leader by the collar and pressed him against the wall with half-squinted eyes: "Cheng Jiayun, you are really good at talking!"

"You act like a villain, and after decades of studying, you will be nothing more than a child!"

"Boom!"

"Ah, it hurts so much. Are you dead? Come and save me!"

Song Zhiqing's strength was not small, and he hit the painful areas specifically. After a few punches, Cheng Jiayun's cries continued to the sky.

Several other people rushed forward.

Song Zhiqing sneered, it was easy to deal with these people.

At the end, Song Zhiqing looked at the people rolling on the ground and smiled sarcastically: "I can't compare with studying, and my physical strength is weak. There are really a lot of weak scholars. With such ability, I still want to take the examination for scholars and candidates. I think it is more practical to dream. !”

Everyone: "..." Song Zhiqing's words can be described as murderous and heartbreaking.

After saying that, Song Zhiqing ignored them, straightened his clothes and messy hair, turned around, picked up the basket on his back and stepped out of the alley.

But as soon as he came out, his footsteps stopped. Qiao Mu stood at the entrance of the alley.

He frowned slightly, but he didn't expect Qiao Mu to see this scene.

"What's the use of being good at reading?" Qiao Mu asked, looking at Song Zhiqing who had regained his gentle expression.

Song Zhiqing was stunned for a moment and then smiled and said: "It's useless." For him now, not only can't make money, but he also has to spend money to study for the imperial examination, isn't it useless?
Qiao Mu's eyebrows moved. Before she could say anything, some pictures suddenly flashed through her mind. The protagonist was none other than Song Zhiqing. He was wearing a red patchwork round-neck robe and a square-wing gauze hat with gold flowers on the hat, riding a horse. A tall man with a tall horse, gentle brows and handsome eyes, he came gracefully.

People on both sides of the street shouted: "Six Yuan champion Song Zhiqing!"

The top six pick?

Qiao Mu couldn't help but stare at Song Zhiqing. At this moment, he was wearing coarse linen clothes with patches all over his clothes. He was carrying a backpack with a faint smile. Looking at it this way, he was just a handsome country man at most.

And there was a subtle doubt in his eyes: "What's wrong?" Why are you staring at him?

Song Zhiqing touched his face. Was there something on his face?
"Song Zhiqing, the number one scholar in the Sixth Yuan Dynasty!" Qiao Mu suddenly said.

What he said was unexpected to Song Zhiqing. He shook his head and said, "Miss Qiao, don't make fun of her." In his current situation, it would be difficult to enter the academy.

But now he has no money and little time to care about these things.

"Let's go. Come back?"

Qiao Mu nodded: "Return." She shook her head again. She was not joking. This was foreseen.

And what she predicted will definitely happen, it's just a matter of time, there are no exceptions.

But Song Zhiqing obviously didn't believe it.

Qiao Mu didn't say anything else and just asked: "What is the Six-Yuan Number One Scholar?"

She saw many people who were more majestic than the inspection officers and soldiers she would encounter, clearing the way for Song Zhiqing and others.

Song Zhiqing was completely stunned. He didn't expect Qiao Mu to ask such a question, but he quickly came back to his senses and simply explained: "Six-yuan champion is a scholar's lifelong dream."

"It's the six yuan that has made me invincible since the first exam, every time I take the exam."

Qiao Mu nodded. It turned out that this was the number one scholar, the number one scholar of six yuan.In the future, Song Zhiqing will be the number one scholar in the Sixth Yuan Dynasty, which means he will be a very good person in exams.

So "What's the use of being the number one scholar in six yuan?"

Song Zhiqing: "..." He felt that he and Qiao Mu were not from the same world... Suddenly Song Zhiqing thought of the question he asked when he caught the monster. His eyes were deep, and he looked at Qiao Mu with a more thoughtful look.

What kind of person is Qiao Mu now?How is she different from the world she knows?

He suppressed the sudden interest in his heart and answered Qiao Mu's questions in a simple way: "The number one scholar in the Sixth Yuan can be an official. There is no need to worry about livelihood anymore, and there is no need to work with the sun above your head and your back to the world."

Of course, for more people, the significance of taking the imperial examination and becoming an official is to change the status of themselves and their descendants so that they can obtain good study resources and training. Of course, the greater significance of being an official is to serve the people. Realize your own life value.

Qiao Mu listened and finally concluded: "I just don't have to be hungry anymore."

Song Zhiqing: "...You can also say that." Once you become an official, no matter how big your official position is, the court will provide you with a salary every year, so you will have no problem with food and clothing.

But Song Zhiqing saw Qiao Mu's sudden eagerness to try. He miraculously saw Qiao Mu's thoughts and couldn't help but say: "I have decreed that women are not allowed to study and take exams to become officials."

Qiao Mu pursed her lips, and the thought that just came to her mind was dismissed by Song Zhiqing.

She couldn't help but wonder, why weren't women allowed to take the imperial examination here?
Qiao Mu didn't ask this question, and Song Zhiqing didn't know how to answer it.

Both of them carried things on their backs and walked slowly to the place where they were waiting for the bus.

Passing by the busy city, Qiao Mu saw the official servant he saw while eating noodles again, and another question came to his mind, official spouse.

Qiao Mu's gaze shifted and fell on Song Zhiqing: "You are twenty."

Song Zhiqing's brown eyes moved, and he also saw the official match: "Yeah!"

He's twenty, and he's about to be matched with an official.

Qiao Mu was thoughtful.

"You are different from before." The Song Zhiqing she had met before was gentle, enthusiastic, and easy-going.

But today, he looked cold and ignored Qiao Yuemei, and became merciless when facing those who insulted him. Of course, he was not soft-spoken. He had a natural arrogance but was not annoying.

So far, Song Zhiqing is the most multifaceted person she has ever met.

Song Zhiqing heard Qiao Mu's meaning of "ye". Before, he said that Qiao Mu was different from the original Qiao Mu. Today, Qiao Mu said that he was different from the one she saw.

He had a relaxed expression and a bright look on his face: "Of course there is a difference in attitude when facing friends and enemies."

Qiao Mu nodded seriously.

It turns out that the attitude towards friends and enemies is different.

It turned out that Song Zhiqing treated her as a friend that day.

"I wanted to help you. But I don't think you need it." Qiao Mu thought that since Song Zhiqing regarded her as a friend, she would also regard Song Zhiqing as a friend for the time being.

Besides, she still owed Song Zhiqing money. If Song Zhiqing couldn't defeat him, she would help him.

But these are all based on the fact that Song Zhiqing is kind to her.

Therefore, the current Song Zhiqing should not be the same as Yin Wen in the previous life.Of course, it will be the same in the future, just kill them first.

A faint smile appeared on Song Zhiqing's face: "Well, no need, they are too weak. A few of them together are not half as powerful as that wild boar."

At this point, Song Zhiqing couldn't help laughing, and even Qiao Mu couldn't help but narrow her eyes: "I also think they are too weak." There was no need for her to take action.

"There's also the ginseng money. I'll pay you back next time I earn it." Qiao Mu thought for a moment and said.

Song Zhiqing was a little helpless: "That's a thank you gift..."

Qiao Mu shook her head: "I want to give it." If it weren't for Song Zhiqing's ginseng, she didn't know when she would be able to find a substitute for the crystal core to practice her powers.

It was also because of the energy of that ginseng plant that she was able to take in the cat demon.

Song Zhiqing: "..." He found that Qiao Mu is really a stubborn person now.
