Chapter 343, Big Dengke After Little Dengke

This day is the day of the new science and stone parade street, the whole capital is really empty alleys, everyone as far in advance as possible to come to the street route, patiently waiting.

The imperial examination, which is held only once every three years, is definitely the grandest event in this era, and everyone from the king to the common people of Li attaches great importance to it.

And for ordinary people, the most anticipated is tantamount to the time when the new champion takes the new champion to the street, only at this time, everyone has the opportunity to witness the demeanor of the new champion, the champion for the people, that is the Wenqu star, is the god of heaven descended to earth, so everyone's expectations for the new champion are very high, which is why the champion should have a good skin.

If you have crooked melons and cracked dates, it will not only lose your face, but also the face of the court, and it will disappoint the people.

Therefore, every champion does not say how good-looking he is, at least he must look good, so that he will not be unable to see people.

"Knock~Knock~"

The road is opened, the joy is thunderous, the joy of the cannon is shaking the sky, and the streets that pass through the street are lit up here, and it is very lively.

Both sides of the road were full of people watching the excitement, and the buildings on both sides were also crowded with people watching the excitement, crowded, all of them stretched their necks to look at the place where the sound came from, wanting to see what the champion of Imako looked like.

On top of an attic, Xu Wan'er, Li Zhen, Zhang Ying and a group of ladies took this floor of the attic, chatting and quietly waiting for the arrival of the champion street team.

"Sister, I didn't expect this Liu Jin to really win the top prize, but it's a pity, if he can try to be the first, it will be three yuan in a row."

Zhang Ying was eccentric and said to Xu Wan'er with a smile on her face.

"It's too difficult to even get three yuan, and there are only a handful of them since ancient times."

When Xu Wan'er heard Zhang Ying's words, her face was slightly red, because she heard what Zhang Ying said.

"That Tang Yin is really arrogant, he said that he wanted to win three yuan before he started the exam, and now he only took the second and thirteenth grades, compared with Liu Jin, the champion, but it is far behind."

"I remember that my sister seems to have said that if you are not the champion, you will not marry, this Liu Jin has now taken the top prize, and it seems that he is not married, he seems to be only twenty years old, and he is also handsome and extraordinary, and his sister is really a match made in heaven."

Zhang Ying looked at Xu Wan'er's slightly red face, and immediately smiled and connected Liu Jin and Xu Wan'er together, of course she didn't know, in fact, Xu Wan'er and Liu Jin had already gotten along.

"Just talk a lot about you~"

Xu Wan'er's face turned red suddenly, although she had already made an oath with Liu Jin, she was still very shy when Zhang Ying said this.

"Haha, it seems that I got it right."

"Sister, if you meet someone you like, you have to seize the opportunity to start, you look at the attic outside, I don't know how many ladies are watching, and when this Liu Jin appears, I don't know how many people will take the initiative to stick it on him."

Zhang Ying wanted to make fun of Xu Wan'er, and when she saw that her face was flushed with shame, she immediately laughed happily, and then her little eyes turned around, looked outside, and pointed to the ladies gathered in the attic and said.

"Yes, sister, don't you know, now the whole capital is discussing Liu Jin, I have many sisters who are recruiting people to inquire about this Liu Jin's appearance, and there are even people who spend Liu Jin's portrait for sale."

"yes, yes, I have a lot of sisters talking about it."

"Young and talented, it is even more rare to be handsome, and the most rare thing is that there is no family and marriage, and those champions in the past are either bad old men, or they have already had a group of wives and concubines, or they are unsightly."

"Liu Jin is traveling on the street, I'm afraid he is going to become the dream lover of countless people."

"Hey~ If it weren't for my sister falling in love with this Liu Jin, I would be moved, even if I was a little one, I would be willing."

Seeing that Zhang Ying was ridiculing Xu Wan'er, the others also smiled and said.

"You still say~"

Xu Wan'er's face was flushed, and the whole person was ashamed to find a crack in the ground to get in, as for Li Zhen on the side, her face was also red at this time, looking at the lively street outside in a slight daze.

"Sister Zhen, why are you blushing?"

"What are you still in a daze, do you also fall in love with this Liu Jin?"

The eccentric Zhang Ying quickly noticed Li Zhen, shook her hand in front of her eyes, and said with a smile.

"You just know?"

Li Zhen nodded generously and said.

"That's bad, Sister Wan'er also fell in love with this Liu Jin, and now Sister Zhen, you also have a crush on this Liu Jin, how is this good."

Zhang Ying looked at Xu Wan'er, and then at Li Zhen, and suddenly said with a very difficult look.

"It's not easy to do, marry him together~"

"Wouldn't that kill that Liu Jin cheaply?"

"Didn't someone say that they also like this Liu Jin just now, if they don't marry together, they are all sisters anyway, and the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders."

"Good idea, good idea ~ giggle~"

All women, you talk to me, chatting non-stop, gossip is human nature, since ancient times, women love gossip the most, and they like to chat the most, and they are also energetic when talking about this aspect of things.

Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen talked on the phone and looked at each other slightly, in fact, the two of them had already discussed, and now Liu Jin is also the champion and first, just waiting for Liu Jin to invite someone to his house to propose marriage.

"Knock~Knock~"

At this time, with the sound of gongs and drums, and the sound of crackling firecrackers, the lively streets below are even more noisy.

"It's coming~It's coming~"

Everyone hurriedly came to the window and looked into the distance.

I saw Liu Jin wearing a golden black gauze hat, wearing a red python robe, riding a golden saddle and red sideburns horse, hugging forward and back, opening the road with a bang, thunderous cheers, and slowly walking towards this side with the scholars of Jinke in the midst of the joy of the cannon.

And with the arrival of Liu Jin and other scholars, the whole scene has become more lively, and in the streets and alleys, countless people are crowded on both sides of the street, crowding heads, scrambling to see the ranks of scholars parading the streets.

Liu Jin was already handsome and extraordinary, but now he was wearing the Champion Mansion, riding a tall horse, and his face was full of smiles, which immediately caused a lot of goodwill.

"The son of a master, as expected, is worthy of his reputation, talented, and extraordinary~"

Someone gave Liu Jin a thumbs up, and Liu Jin's image perfectly interprets the champion in everyone's hearts, talented and good-looking.

"Lao Yu is just a good year this year, since he was sensible, he has seen more than ten champions, and this champion is the youngest and most handsome champion I have ever seen."

An old man with white hair said while pinching his loose beard.

"It's really handsome, what a champion~"

A woman looked at Liu Jin, her eyes were shining, and she couldn't take her eyes off.

"He is Liu Jin, the champion of Jinke, the eldest of the department, and the long Zhenjun~"

"I heard that he hasn't been married yet, and I don't know if he has a crush."

"I don't know who can marry him~"

There is a lady in the attic, watching Liu Jin suddenly become a fan of Liu Jin, his mind is occupied by Liu Jin's figure, and he can't wait to find an opportunity to tell his love in person.

"Sister ~ Sister ~ Here comes the time, here it is."

Zhang Ying leaned against the window, looked at Liu Jin who came slowly, and said excitedly.

Hearing Zhang Ying's words, everyone hurriedly gathered by the window one by one, looked at Liu Jin on the top of the tall horse, and immediately became a nymphomaniac.

"So handsome~"

"It's still a champion~"

"If only I could marry him~"

Everyone crowded by the window, looking at Liu Jin, all of them looked stunned, especially Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen, their eyes were full of Liu Jin's figure, full of joy, and they couldn't help but think about it in their minds.

Liu Jin rode a tall horse and always kept smiling, but when he got to the back, he was a little tired when he laughed, but in order to maintain his image, he naturally had to keep smiling all the time.

"The spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day~"

"It's still very good."

"This can be regarded as the most proud moment of the ancient literati."

While parading the streets, Liu Jin is also wandering outside the world.

"Liu Jin ~ Liu Jin ~"

At this moment, there was a shout from the head, which sounded a little familiar, and when I looked up, it was Zhang Ying shouting to herself, waving at herself, as for Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen next to her, her face was flushed, and she looked at herself with a smile.

Liu Jin immediately laughed happily and saluted Xu Wan'er, Li Zhen and others upstairs, which made Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen even more red-faced, as if they had thought of something.

……

The hustle and bustle of the capital, with the imperial examination coming to an end, is slowly returning to its former calm.

Li Mansion, when Li Hui and Li Shilang's mansion were in the house, on this day, the British Duke Zhang Mao came to the Li Mansion with a huge team, which led to a burst of chickens and dogs jumping up and down the entire Li Mansion.

In the living room, Li Shilang and Zhang Mao sat down as the host and guest, and the best fragrant tea was served, accompanied by Li Shilang's son Li Liang, Li Liang was Li Zhen's father.

For Zhang Mao to be so enthusiastic and moved the public, he came to his house with great fanfare, Li Hui and Li Liang were confused, they were civil officials, and this Zhang Mao was a military general.

"Gong Zhang, I don't know what you are doing with such fanfare today?"

After some greetings, Li Hui also asked.

"Gong Li, I'm here to propose marriage today."

Zhang Mao said with a smile.

"Propose?"

Li Hui was slightly stunned for a moment, and thought about it, she only had one baby granddaughter who had not married, because she loved Li Zhen too much, so she had always been reluctant to marry, in fact, there have been many people who have come to Li Mansion to propose marriage, including many civil and military ministers in the court.

However, Li Hui also let go back then, her precious granddaughter is not a protégé of the Son of Heaven and does not marry, plus Li Zhen has always had a very high vision, and ordinary people don't look down on it at all, so she has never married out.

He and Li Liang want to marry Li Zhen, after all, they are already the eldest and not small, and if they don't marry out, they will cause gossip.

"Yes, propose, this is a dowry, please take a look~"

Zhang Mao nodded solemnly, and then took out a red gift slip and handed it to Li Hui's hand.

"What a big stroke~"

Li Hui opened the gift list and looked at the dowry listed on it, and the whole person opened his mouth slightly, because the things listed above were worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, such a big deal, even he couldn't help but call out.

Li Hui gently closed the gift list, thought for a while and said: "Zhang Gong, I guess you also know, I once said that my granddaughter is not a protégé of the Son of Heaven and will not marry, I don't know who you want to propose?" ”

"Gong Li, please rest assured, the person who asked me to propose marriage definitely meets your requirements."

Zhang Mao smiled and nodded, and then said affirmatively.

"Oh, yes, I don't know who it is?"

Li Hui and Li Liang suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly asked.

"Liu Jin~"

Zhang Mao replied.

"Liu Jin!"

Li Hui and Li Liang were dumbfounded, how did they not expect that Zhang Mao would actually propose marriage for Liu Jin, originally in their opinion, most of the people who could invite the British public Zhang Mao to be a matchmaker were also important figures among the military generals, but they never imagined that it would be Liu Jin.

"Yes, Liu Jin fell in love with your granddaughter at first sight and has been in love with you for a long time, knowing that Li Gong once said that if you are not a protégé of the Son of Heaven, you will not marry, so you have been working hard for the imperial examination, and now you are the champion and the first, and I am also entrusted to propose to you."

Zhang Mao smiled and nodded, telling the cause of the incident.

After listening to Zhang Mao's words, Li Hui and Li Liang also nodded slightly, and then glanced at each other, Li Liang immediately understood, and made an excuse to go to the backyard, ready to consult Li Zhen's opinion.

Liu Jin's situation, of course, they know it clearly, although his background is very poor, but with the current Liu Jin, it is more than enough to match Li Zhen.

However, Li Zhen is the pearl of their palms, although Liu Jin is a very desirable candidate, they are still ready to ask Li Zhen's meaning.

Soon, Li Liang came back and nodded slightly at Li Hui, Li Hui immediately understood, and then agreed to Zhang Mao's proposal with a smile on his face.

Liu Jin is the champion, in line with the requirements of his protégé of the Son of Heaven, and there is no marriage match, he doesn't even have a concubine, he is young, and his appearance is not to say, they have all seen it, not to mention that Liu Jin has a lot of money-making industries, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty know that Liu Jin is very rich.

Such a golden beetle son-in-law, what are they not satisfied with, and it is extremely rare that even Li Zhen herself agrees, which is even more perfect.

And Liu Jin also attaches great importance to Li Zhen, and is very serious about this matter, inviting a big man like Zhang Mao, the British prince of the dynasty, to be a matchmaker, this is not an ordinary matchmaker, and no one can be invited.

The dowry is also full of sincerity, a dowry worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and the convoy of dowry gifts has already lined up, which can be said to have given the Li Mansion enough face.

So Li Hui and Li Liang agreed very happily, and they couldn't close their mouths with a smile.

……

Half a month later, on an auspicious day of the zodiac, the Dingguo Mansion, Li Shilang and Li Mansion put up lanterns, beat gongs and drums, and were extremely festive, Liu Jin, who was wearing the red groom's official uniform, took a long line to marry the granddaughter of Dingguo Gong, Xu Wan'er, and Li Zhen, the granddaughter of Li Shilang, at one time.

The whole capital was amazed by this grand wedding.

Whether it is the huge welcoming team dispatched by Liu Jin, or the priceless dowry of the Dingguo Mansion and the Li Mansion, or the beautiful lady of Liu Jin, the new champion of the new department, who married two wealthy families at one time, or the sad soul of countless ladies in the entire capital, in short, the whole capital is discussing this grand wedding for a while.

The entire Liu Mansion was decorated with lights, and the decoration was extremely festive, the Manchu Dynasty Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and even the Hongzhi Emperor sent people to send congratulatory gifts, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhu Houzhao personally came to congratulate him, which also made the entire Liu Mansion extremely busy and lively.

At the end of the song, everyone dispersed, and when the guests left, Liu Jin, who was slightly drunk, came to Li Zhen's room, gently lifted the red hijab, and quietly looked at the beauty in front of him.

"Lady~"

Liu Jin said softly, then picked up Li Zhen and walked to Xu Wan'er's room next door.

came to Xu Wan'er's room, gently put Li Zhen next to Xu Wan'er, and then lifted Xu Wan'er's red hijab, Li Zhen and Xu Wan'er looked at each other, and their faces were immediately flushed, and even their necks were blushing.

"How can I, Liu Jin, be able to get your hearts at the same time, I will not live up to you in this life, if I violate this oath, the sky will fight ......"

Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, Liu Jin felt a lot of emotion in his heart, thought about it and said, but his poisonous oath had not yet been completed, Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen blocked Liu Jin's mouth with their hands at the same time.

"Husband, it's enough for you to have us in your heart, don't make such a poisonous oath."

Xu Wan'er said softly.

"Yes, husband, it is enough to be able to marry you, there is nothing else to ask for in this life."

Li Zhen also nodded, looking at her beloved, with a spring in her eyebrows.

"If you have a wife like this, what more can you ask for a husband~"

Liu Jin couldn't help but hug the two of them at once, feeling the warmth in his arms, and then kissed on the left and on the right.

Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen were already ashamed at this time, from the time Liu Jin carried Li Zhen to Xu Wan'er's room, the two had already expected what would happen next, and they were so ashamed that they couldn't find a crack in the ground to drill down, just thinking about today's day of great joy for the three of them.

Immediately, I understood that Liu Jin didn't want to snub anyone, since they would be a family in the future, what else would they have to share with each other.

"Husband, we haven't drunk a glass of wine yet~"

Xu Wan'er said softly.

"Oh, I almost forgot~"

Liu Jin smiled, took three cups, poured them gently, and the three of them clinked glasses together and drank them together.

"Lady~"

"Come and kiss one~"

After drinking a glass of wine, Liu Jin looked at the two beauties in front of him, who were already naturally beautiful, and when he dressed up at this time, it was even more beautiful, which made it difficult to control his feelings.

This time, Xu Wan'er and Li Zhen didn't refuse anymore, they both closed their eyes, and soon, the candles in the room were blown out, the bed curtain was pulled down, and a burst of pleasant sounds slowly came......
