Jiang Shenzhi is not too old-fashioned person, Jiang Ling spread out all the words to say, but it made him suddenly enlightened.

The main thing is that the reputation of this jinshi can be preserved, so that Jiang Shen's heart can be reassured.

In all fairness, he was also a little resistant to the name of Captain of the Horse, and hoped that Jiang Ling would have a broader space to display.

And the emperor gave Jiang Ling this ranking, which shows that he has never understood Jiang Ling's true thoughts, only when his talent is not as top as the legend, and his results in the Hui Examination and the Township Examination are due to luck.

Since the emperor didn't feel offended, Jiang Shenzhi accepted the result with peace of mind.

After Jiang Shenzhi's pass, Jiang Ling felt much calmer.

As for the rest of the people's comments such as "in vain", he didn't take it seriously at all.

It's just that somewhere in his heart, there seems to be a person who makes him think of it every time he thinks of it, and he can't accept that she also thinks that she is not strong enough to do so.

What would she think of herself?

Jiang Ling couldn't be sure in his heart.

Coming out of Jiang Shenzhi's study, Jiang Ling couldn't help but wander.

After a long time, he remembered that Lu Chengjie had made an appointment with him to visit his master.

Jiang Ling hurriedly turned around and entered the Lu Mansion through the Moon Gate on the west side of the South Courtyard.

Coincidentally, at this time, at the hanging flower gate in the outer courtyard, I met Lu Qingrong and Luzhu, who were about to leave the house.

Lu Qingrong came to Lu Mansion today to say hello to Lu Chengjie.

On the new science and technology list, Lu Chengjie ranked fourth in the second class.

Compared with the examination, the ranking has also improved.

For a moment, the Lu Mansion was jubilant.

Although Lu Chengjie only reached the year of the weak crown last year. But over the years, he has gone through hardships on the way to fame. Today's harvest. It's even more commendable.

When Lu Qingrong heard the news, he originally wanted to come to the Lu Mansion with Jiang Xuan.

But just as she was about to go out, Jiang Xuan was summoned to the palace by the emperor, and after not returning for a few hours, she finally couldn't help but come over first.

Seeing Jiang Ling at this moment, Lu Qingrong was also like everyone else in the mansion, with a smile on his face more than before.

I don't know why. Jiang Ling instantly felt a lot more steady.

After the two saw each other, they did not deliberately avoid it. Especially Lu Zhu was following Lu Qingrong, and they were not alone.

Jiang Ling took the lead in asking, "Is the Lady of the Prince here to say hello to Brother Lu?" ”

Lu Qingrong nodded. While looking at Jiang Ling.

I saw that he was clear and handsome, as in the past, and his expression did not show a trace of gloom.

This is not far from my own speculation.

At this time, he was wearing a white plain cloak, and his hair was neatly tied. On it is a Hetian white hosta. A cold wind blew. The cloak was lifted slightly, revealing a robe of the same color inside.

All over the body, only the frost-colored satin turquoise belt tied around the waist has a little bit of color.

When the gust of wind blew by, not even this color could be seen, and it became white again.

Lu Qingrong secretly said in his heart, if it weren't for his tall and thin figure, I'm afraid he would look like a snowman.

Lu Qingrong endured the smile back. Only then did she find that Jiang Ling was still quietly waiting for her answer.

"Exactly." Lu Qingrong nodded slowly, "It's not just big brother. I also want to congratulate Jiang Gongzi. Shizi and I also prepared a congratulatory gift for Jiang Gongzi, but we didn't expect to meet here, so we put it on the eldest brother's side just now. ”

Jiang Ling's eyes turned behind her, and he didn't see the figure of the Marquis of Jingyuan, so he couldn't help but show a wry smile, and then said: "Brother Lu, this is a good thing, and this time it is finally deserved, so it is naturally worth celebrating." As for me...... Where can you deserve this congratulations! ”

Lu Qingrong looked at him with a slightly ashamed appearance, and he didn't take it seriously at all.

"Congratulations, of course! Since you have fulfilled Lord Jiang's requirements for you, and you have completed it so well, this kind of free collection and release is really a stroke of genius, I'm afraid no one else can match it, right? ”

Lu Qingrong's words, no matter how you listen to them, are a little ridiculous.

Jiang Ling didn't care at all, and was even a little happy.

As smart as she is, she is really different from others.

Even her father had to test herself personally, and it was rare for her to be so sure as soon as she came up.

He didn't know that Lu Qingrong knew some clues.

As early as the time of the examination, Jiang Xuan had told her that the emperor intended to marry Princess Yongying to a young talent of the dynasty.

When it comes to young talents, Jiang Ling should be the leader.

Who would have thought that he would just let it!

Lu Qingrong has always admired him a little, but after this incident, it can only be even worse.

Jiang Ling, on the other hand, was silent for a long time, neither admitting nor denying it.

Unconsciously, he only felt that he was more relaxed now than when he came out of his father's study.

Immediately afterwards, when he spoke again, he became a little more natural: "I was about to go to find Brother Lu, and I made an appointment to go with him to meet the master." ”

Lu Qingrong didn't want to get to the bottom of it, so he followed him at this moment and said: "Just now, the eldest brother also mentioned Jiang Gongzi, saying that he wanted to go over and ask you if you want to prepare for the exam with him!" ”

This kind of replacement for someone else is simply a logical thing, once it is put on Jiang Ling, it will be asked.

Otherwise, it's hard to guarantee whether he'll be happy or not.

It seems that Lu Chengjie also knows Jiang Ling very well.

Jiang Ling really pondered seriously for a moment before replying: "With my ranking, I must always have some self-knowledge, since it is hopeless to pass the exam, let's not add to the chaos!" ”

After confirming that Lu Qingrong had guessed his thoughts, Jiang Ling laughed at himself and had no scruples.

Lu Qingrong subconsciously shook his head, and couldn't help but ask: "Are you worried that you won't be able to pass the exam, or are you afraid that if you don't pay attention to the exam, you will be held accountable by the emperor for your palace exam?" ”

Jiang Ling rarely had a time when he couldn't answer.

I saw that his face was pale, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence: "This state has ups and downs, and it is also human nature, I think the emperor will be able to understand!" ”

Lu Qingrong smiled silently, but fortunately he directly broke it: "I'm worried that the emperor will blame, but I'm afraid that the emperor will be too considerate." If it were me, I'm afraid I don't know what to do......"

Jiang Ling was even more speechless this time.

There was helplessness in his smile, but there was an indescribable joy in his heart.

From childhood to adulthood, the maverick Jiang Ling is used to seeing the incomprehension in the eyes of the world.

It's just that when facing Lu Qingrong, her kind of preaching that sometimes does not match her age, or the sharp words that seem to be ridiculous, listen to Jiang Ling's ears, and there is a tacit understanding.

In this world, what is more exciting than understanding?

I didn't say anything, you can understand.

Jiang Ling thought that he had had such an experience, even if it was only for a short moment, it was worth satisfying.

Immersed in these feelings, when he saw Jiang Xuan coming in to pick up Lu Qingrong, Jiang Ling, who had always been respectful to the Marquis of Jingyuan, actually saluted with a straight face, and turned around and entered the Hanging Flower Gate. (To be continued.) )
