Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 89 Three-Day Period

Ruyi Xiaolangjun Text Volume 89 Three-day deadline Tofu pudding is sweet or salty, this matter is of great importance, for this, I will die for justice, I will not hesitate.

Miss Li could not imagine what kind of confrontation the sweet party and the salty party would have hundreds of years later because of the taste of tofu pudding.

Li Tianlan took a bite of sweet tofu pudding, and then looked at Tang Ning calmly.

Obviously, Tang Ning's reason just now could not convince her.

"Tofu is tasteless, sweet and salty are chosen by oneself." Tang Ning shook his head and said, "It's just a joke, don't worry about it, you and I have no grudges, how can I refuse you for no reason, I will treat you today, Miss Li can eat three bowls."

Although it was Tang Ning who treated him, Uncle San would definitely not accept his money.

In this way, if Li Tianlan ate more than three bowls, he would feel distressed, and when he felt distressed, he would definitely nag Tang Ning in his ear.

Li Tianlan did not continue to dwell on it and changed the subject: "I have heard about the difficulty of the state examination in Chen State. The first round brought together more than ten subjects and allowed the candidates to decide for themselves. This was the first of its kind in all countries. Since the founding of Chen State, there has only been one case of someone who could answer all the questions correctly. Tang Jieyuan was so young and yet he was able to do this. Such talent is really admirable."

"It's not a talent..." Tang Ning smiled modestly and said, "I just spent the time that others spend drinking tea studying."

"Tang Jieyuan is still as modest as ever. The first round of the state examination It is true that you can be ranked first through hard work, but hard work alone is not enough for the second and third rounds. "

Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "Especially the third round of policy essays, which involves water control, epidemic prevention, reason and law. It is rare for ordinary people to answer one question well, but Tang Jieyuan can attract praise from three assistant examiners at the same time. Among more than a thousand examinees, only you can do it. "

Tang Ning realized at this time that Miss Li was more than a little better than Tang Yaoyao. Tang Yaojing never spoke like this. She would not praise her hard work, nor would she admit her talent. She would only doubt his endurance.

He looked at Li Tianlan and said politely, "Brother Li was the top scholar at the age of seventeen. Who else can be called a great man in front of you?"

Be polite. When others praise you, the best way is not to be modest, but to immediately come up with a wave of commercial praise.

In addition, he was somewhat suspicious of Li Tianlan's identity. Whether it was Chen or Chu, women were not allowed to participate in the imperial examinations. It was incredible that she could become the top scholar of Chu as a girl. Could there be any shady dealings or behind-the-scenes manipulation?

Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "That's not as knowledgeable as Tang Jieyuan, who is proficient in water management, medicine, law, and solving cases."

Tang Ning smiled and said, "He is not as knowledgeable as you say. In fact, he only knows a little bit..."

"Tang Jieyuan is modest again." Li Tianlan shook his head and said, "When we first came to Lingzhou, we heard that Tang Jieyuan was very smart and solved many strange cases. Are these all rumors?"

"Although it's not a rumor, it's a bit exaggerated..., I really don't understand things like solving cases." Tang Ning had finished eating tofu pudding. He still hadn't figured out Miss Li's routine. She spent so much effort, arranging a chance encounter, and saving the country in a roundabout way. Was it just to brag about herself?

But one thing is for sure, that is, he must not follow her words, otherwise he will be surrounded by 500 ducks, which he has experienced deeply.

After breakfast, Tang Ning accompanied her to walk on the street. There was nothing to do, so he just took it as a way to digest the food.

When walking on the street, if you meet the right person at the right time, time will pass very quickly. If you meet the wrong person, every step you take will feel like torture.

Tang Ning and Li Tianlan walked and walked, and "unknowingly" arrived at the posthouse where the Chu envoy stayed.

"I will take Brother Li here." Tang Ning looked at her and smiled, "See you another day."

Li Tianlan looked at his back as he left. After a moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered, "Did you do it on purpose?"

The middle-aged envoy of Chu came over from a distance, looked at her, and asked, "Sir, did you get his words?"

Li Tianlan shook his head.

The middle-aged envoy pondered for a moment and said, "As long as we closely monitor the movements of the Water Department, we will know what strategy he has offered to the Chen court. The Chen State has been suffering from floods in Jingjiang for a long time, and there will be action soon..."

He paused halfway through his words, looked at Li Tianlan, and said, "But this will take time. Why don't we just send Tang Ning..."

Li Tianlan waved his hand, interrupted him, and said, "No need, I have my own ideas on this matter."

Seeing that she had already spoken, the middle-aged envoy said no more.

He bowed to Li Tianlan, and when he walked towards the posthouse, he subconsciously touched his waist.

He suddenly stopped, looked at his waist, and touched around in disbelief.

The next moment, he stood there in a daze, and his face immediately turned pale.

Li Tianlan looked at him and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

The middle-aged envoy's face had turned panicky, and he said in a trembling voice, "The seal, the seal is lost!"

...

The Lingzhou Posthouse became a panic, and when the chaos was in turmoil, Tang Ning had already returned home.

Zhong Mingli saw him and asked in surprise, "Where is Lord Li?"

Tang Ning raised his head and said, "Sent him back to the posthouse."

Zhong Mingli was even more surprised: "So fast, what did you do?"

"I treated him to a bowl of tofu bread, took him for a walk, and then sent him back," Tang Ning told the truth.

Zhong Mingli glanced at him suspiciously, but didn't ask any more questions.

Tang Ning walked towards his yard. How could he have time to take a walk with Miss Li? Miss Tang's matter had not been resolved yet.

If this matter is not resolved for a day, he will not be able to let go. He does not want to lose a few teeth or break a few ribs for no reason.

The problem was that Fairy Tang had deliberately not seen him these past few days, leaving him no chance to apologize.

He came to the base of the wall and stood on a big stone, intending to explore the enemy's situation first.

He stuck his head out and looked towards Tang Yaoyao's yard, and saw her stepping on the stones and climbing up the yard wall.

The two pairs of eyes looked at each other.

Peeping is a very shameful thing, but what is even more shameful is that the other person is also peeping, and the two people see each other.

Tang Ning could feel Tang Yaoyao's breath on his face, and the atmosphere gradually became more embarrassing.

"I'm sorry." He was the first to break the awkwardness.

Tangning looked at her sincerely and said, "I didn't do it on purpose that day."

Tang Yaoyao's expression was stunned for a moment, and then she became flustered. When she heard Tang Ning talk about that incident, her face even turned red.

She jumped off the stone, jumped up the courtyard wall from another place, and landed in Tang Ning's courtyard. She waved her hands generously and said, "Fists and feet have no eyes. People who practice martial arts do not stick to trivial matters."

When she said this, Tangning felt even more uneasy.

This is not Fairy Tang. If she doesn't listen to his explanation and directly fights with him, he might feel more at ease.

She cracked her knuckles and said, "Come on, let me see if you have made any progress in the past two days."

Tangning shook her head.

Tang Yaoyao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I'll let you go just like I did that day."

Tang Ning continued to shake her head. It was not up to her whether to give in or not. She just wanted to find an opportunity to avenge the attack on her chest. Tang Ning was not stupid. He would just practice on his own from now on, without the help of Fairy Tang.

Tang Yaoyao glanced at him with disdain, looked at him, and asked, "Where did you learn that move?"

Tangning asked in confusion: "Which move?"

Fairy Tang glanced at him with a slightly unkind look. Tang Ning thought for a moment and immediately said, "I don't know about that move you mentioned. I suddenly used it at that time..."

He looked at Tang Yaoyao and asked, "Do you think this is a move I created myself because of my extraordinary talent?"

Tang Yaoyao looked at him and twitched her lips, "Haha..."

Tang Ning can understand that Tang Yaoyao may not be able to accept the fact that her talent is better than hers. This is human nature and understandable.

In any case, she seemed not to worry about what happened last time, and Tangning felt relieved a little.

He went back to his room and started doing today's policy practice. He wanted to write it as soon as possible, and then go to Zhong Yi's room in the evening to ask her to help him correct his grammar...

When he sat at the table and wrote the first word, Zhao Zhijie, the county magistrate of Yi'an County, frowned.

The envoy of Chu State lost money within his jurisdiction. If it was just the silver that was lost, it would be okay, but according to the envoy, in addition to the silver, he also lost an extremely important thing, and nothing could go wrong with that thing.

There is no small matter for an envoy. Governor Dong has given him a death order and the case must be solved within three days.

Zhao Zhijie knew the importance of this matter. If the case could not be solved, not to mention a small magistrate of Ngee'an, even Dong Governor himself would be responsible.

He stood up, looked at a policeman beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Bring all the habitual thieves in that area back to the county government office!"

"Yes, sir!"

The policeman responded, and when he exited, he sighed.

The county government receives cases of theft almost every few days, but less than one out of ten is successfully solved. This time, the envoy of the Chu State lost something, and his master was in big trouble.
