Chapter 126 Li Jieyuan

"Uh……"

Lin Shu opened his mouth wide and didn't close it for a long time.After a while, he shook his head and sighed dejectedly: "Is everyone's level so high?"

Lin Pan'er knew that her brother had always been arrogant, so it might not be a bad thing for him to be so frustrated this time.

Unable to bear his continued despair, Lin Pan'er persuaded him kindly: "Brother, don't be too discouraged. I heard that the test questions were already being sold on the street before the exam. The water in this imperial examination is very deep. I can't say. Are you the only one who didn’t cheat?”

"Actually...I cheated too."

Lin Shu sighed. He had read the test questions in advance, so there was no way he would be unprepared.

Who would have expected that the carefully prepared article would only be ranked last in the review.

This made him have to think, could it be that Pingzhou is really full of talents?
Looking at Yang Liang in the distance, he was already surrounded by people. Merchants from Pingzhou, scholars who were also students, and ladies from wealthy families in the city all rushed to see this Xie Yuanlang.

Being able to pass the Jie Yuan exam will make him an official in the future, which is the rise of a family. Moreover, he is still so young and handsome, and his future achievements are simply unlimited.

One after another, small sedans were carried from a distance. The front of Huang's wine shop was crowded, and the wine in the vat had been sold out. This made Jia Waner secretly regret it.

The price of my wine was set too low.

"Master Li, my master invites you to a banquet at the restaurant."

"My master has booked the largest brothel in Pingzhou."

"Master Li, Fairy Yun Shu from Deyi Building invites you to drink."

Yang Liang felt confused and confused when he was in it.

No wonder countless people study until their hair turns gray, and they still want to win the title of Juren. It’s been ten years of hard work and no one cares about them, but they become famous all over the world in one fell swoop.

I have seen it in books before, but it was only superficial on paper. It was a different experience to experience it in person.

Now he has completely become the center of the crowd, with countless people surrounding him with smiling faces, and many young women making secret glances at him.

In this situation, Yang Liang can't help but feel a little swaying and graceful.

When the lanterns first came on, the Deyi Building was already packed with people.

The largest grain merchant in the city, Zhou Guanren, wanted to entertain Jieyuan, the top candidate in the imperial examination.

Pingzhou's biggest business was garrisoning, and the annual consumption of grain and grass was an astronomical amount, and the transportation of this grain and grass was the responsibility of Zhou officials.

Because he often dealt with the imperial court, he also donated an eighth-grade petty official. It was hard to say that he was elegant, but it was just to package himself.

Scholars, farmers, industrialists and merchants did not have enough influence in the officialdom, and it was difficult to maintain their family business.

Therefore, Zhou officials flattered the budding Li Jieyuan in every possible way and kept a low profile, just to establish a good relationship with him before they met him.

Yang Liang is still confused now. Although he knows that the other party must have intentions, he can't say anything to refuse him in this situation.

"Li Jieyuan is so young and talented. I wonder if he is married?" Zhou Guanren asked, and at least seven or eight people around him pricked up their ears.

Yang Liang sighed and said, "There is a marriage contract at home."

"Tsk..."

Zhou Guanren said: "It's a pity that my daughter is 16 years old this year. She has always admired Mr. Li's talent and learning, and even said that she wanted to ask for advice in person."

Yang Liang thought that this was a public promotion of his daughter. After passing the Jie Yuan exam, the people around him were so enthusiastic. He did not expect this.

If I had known this, I would have saved myself a lot of trouble by just taking the examination.

He put down his wine glass and was suddenly stunned when he noticed that Niu Dewang and Niu Bencai and his son were also mixed in the hall.

Why are they everywhere?

There is no need to take it to heart that Niu Dewang is a confused person. The key is that Niu Bencai is a smart person. Will he recognize himself?

At this time, Niu Dewang was already walking towards him with a wine glass in his hand. Yang Liang was sitting there, still chatting and laughing, but feeling panicked in his heart.

Niu Dewang was stopped outside the threshold. "Hey, hey, I know him. Li Jieyuan and I are old acquaintances."

"Li Jieyuan is drinking with my master inside. What are you doing?"

The argument at the door interrupted the conversation between Yang Liang and Zhou Guanren.

Yang Liang coughed lightly and said, "Let them come in."

At this time, Niu Dewang and Niu Bencai, father and son, walked into the drinking hall.

Niu Dewang looked at Yang Liang, blinked, and said nothing for a while.

"Hey, hey, what are you doing here?"

"Resembling, really similar." Niu Dewang smacked his lips and said, "You look like an old friend of mine?"

"Oh."

Yang Liang's back was already sweating a little, but his face still pretended to be calm: "Is he also a scholar?"

"No, he is my family's long-term worker. However, you should be whiter, while he is darker."

"Hahaha."

Yang Liang and Zhou Guanren laughed heartily at the same time.

"Bold!"

Zhou Guanren shouted: "You are crazy to compare Li Jieyuan to a long-term worker. Someone, please kill this drunkard."

"Hey…………"

Yang Liang waved his hand: "The world is so big that there are many wonders. Maybe there is a person who looks just like me. If there is a chance, I would also like to get to know this long-term worker who is very similar to me."

"You can't see him anymore, he's a fugitive now."

"Hahaha." Zhou Guanren laughed heartily: "This is getting weirder and weirder."

"Father, you are drunk, come down with me." Zhou Bencai grabbed his clothes.

"Sir, we are destined to meet each other. Let me toast you." Yang Liang smiled and said, "Are you here to take the exam too?"

"I came here with my father. He won the imperial examination this time and will go to Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival next year."

"Tsk tsk."

Yang Liang secretly lamented that even someone like Niu Dewang could win the election, and Enke's level this time was really too low.

I don't know if Niu Bencai recognized him. Although he was disguised as a high-level disguiser, a person is just one person and he cannot become two people.

Then I thought about it, even if I exposed myself, what good would it do to them.

Firstly, no one believed it, and secondly, it was hurting others and not benefiting oneself. Niu Ben is a smart person and should not do such stupid things.

Thinking of this, Yang Liang's panicked heart gradually calmed down, but cold sweat had quietly soaked his back.

"Master Li is very talented. He will definitely go to high school next spring. When the time comes, don't forget me."

"I will try my best to get a chance to serve the imperial court. As for fame and wealth, they are nothing like me."

Zhou Guanren secretly praised it. Look, it turns out that a scholar can speak. A rough man like himself cannot say such things.

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded: "I heard that this time Enke, all the people on the list spent money. Li Jieyuan can go to high school, he must be rich all over the world."

Yang Liang was stunned and realized that the person speaking was the woman who had just played the piano.

She was dressed in green clothes, with long hair hanging down, and a cold face, as if she was ready to die at any moment.
