I don't know who took the lead, but a burst of applause suddenly broke out in the crowd of onlookers, and someone took advantage of the chaos to shout, "Lord Nie, you agree, Du Zhuangyuan is a talent, and he happens to be a talented man and a woman with the county lord." ”

Another woman shouted: "My family has a good field and tens of thousands of family assets, Du Zhuangyuan might as well consider the little girl." ”

There is also a big girl Mao Sui recommended herself, "Du Zhuangyuan, what do you think of me?" ”

In the face of this farce, Prince Nie didn't say a word, let alone order the soldiers to drive these people away, but turned around and went back, and the heavy gate of Nie Wang's Mansion closed again.

He just showed his attitude, not to mention that Du Xinlei only knelt in front of the gate of King Nie's Mansion for three days, even if he knelt for another three years, he would not agree.

Du Xinlei lowered his head, watching the corners of Nie Wangye's embroidered robe go farther and farther, only hating himself for being a man, unlike women, who can go out and hug other people's thighs at this time to cry and beg.

Seeing that the door of Nie's Mansion was closed again, he seemed to see a light blue dress flashing, and he understood in his heart that Nie Linyu had been peeking behind the door.

She was reborn and knew how she had treated her in her previous life, so it was understandable that she refused to marry, but why did Prince Nie refuse either? Obviously, he had a good impression of himself before, why did he change after a trip to Yingzhou?

Du Xinlei couldn't figure it out.

In fact, Du Xinlei knows Nie Linyu's situation, she seems to have a prominent family background and a noble status, but in fact, the marriage journey is not satisfactory.

Nie Wang Ye is the only king with a different surname in this dynasty, Nie Linyu is the only county lord with a different surname in this dynasty, except for the prince, the children of the clan who have no talent and are not reused are inferior to her, not to mention other nobles, as the saying goes, the high family marries a woman and the low family marries a woman, but which people in this dynasty are higher than Nie Wangfu?

The emperor didn't want Nie Linyu to be the princess, otherwise he wouldn't have waited until now, and Nie Linyu was unlikely to marry into the clan, since this was the case, she didn't have many options.

And yourself, is undoubtedly one of the best choices.

Coming from a poor family, sometimes it is a disadvantage, sometimes it will be transformed into an advantage, and Nie Wang Ye had this idea before, but for some reason, he went to Yingzhou together, and it changed when he came back.

Du Xinlei also guessed

Yes, could it be that Nie Linyu said something to Nie Wangye, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was impossible, unless she said that she was reborn, what could she say?

But if she said it, Prince Nie knew about the things in his previous life, and he would not be able to have this attitude towards him, he would definitely kill himself, anyway, with his power and status in the emperor's mind, as long as he can find a reasonable reason, killing a poor bachelor is nothing, at most he will be reprimanded, and it will not hurt his muscles and bones.

So it can't be that Nie Linyu said something, and she died once and was reborn, this kind of thing is simply appalling, even if it is her biological parents, they will regard it as a monster, right?

What went wrong?

On the way home in the carriage, Du Xinlei has been thinking about this problem.

When I got home, the porter came out and said, "My lord, there are a few gentlemen here, claiming to be your same year, and they have come to visit you." ”

Du Xinlei hurriedly went to the flower hall, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed at a glance, it was not the people he needed who came, a few of them were unsuccessful, and a few of them were indeed in the same scientific examination as him, but the rankings were very low, and they were not awarded.

These people are of no use to themselves, and they are afraid that they still want to help themselves.

Du Xinlei is not interested in these people at all, he wants to get ahead and be a high-ranking official, not to be a brother and sister to a group of guys who are also from a poor family.

Not very enthusiastic arched his hand, in line with the principle of visiting the door as a guest, he ordered his subordinates to serve tea.

"When we were preparing for the exam together, I felt that Brother Du was extraordinary, and sure enough, Brother Du is not only the champion, but also the best champion in the past few decades, which is really a model of champions."

The first to speak was the son of a wealthy businessman who had always looked down on Du Xinlei before, named Chen Baofang, who was known to be talented, but he failed in the exam last year, and he has been stranded in the capital and refused to return to his hometown, planning to take the exam again in three years.

Du Xinlei is most annoyed by this person, but since people are flattering, he has to show a smile and casually say two polite words.

Another one named Qin Hao asked, "Brother Du, this is just coming back from King Nie's Mansion, and it has spread all over the capital, I don't know what the result is today?" ”

Du Xinlei's face was almost untensed, if Chen Baofang said this, he would definitely think that he was deliberately sarcastic about himself, but Qin Hao asked differently, this person has always had no brains, and he will say whatever he thinks in his heart, so although he has been moved, he has never been an official.

Taking a deep breath to ease his emotions, Du Xinlei just wanted to say something, Li Qianyong, who has always had a good relationship with him, said: "People are county lords, naturally they are not so easy to ask for, Brother Du, don't be discouraged, just show more sincerity, and things may be done." ”

Du Xinlei smiled, "I borrowed Brother Li's auspicious words." ”

Chen Baofang suddenly said: "Brother Du will kneel for a few more days, isn't there a saying that sincerity is the golden stone?" ”

Qin Hao asked but pouted on the side, "There is another sentence, a man has gold under his knees, and he kneels down in order to marry a woman, which is not done by my generation of scholars." ”

Du Xinlei suddenly had an idea.

He shook his head at Chen Baofang to the ground, "What Brother Chen said is extremely true, as long as Du pays enough sincerity, I believe that he will definitely move Prince Nie and the county lord of Nanyang." ”

Standing up, he looked at the few people in front of him, "I don't know if a few people came to my house, there was something wrong, although Du didn't have much ability, but as long as you spoke, I always had to do my best." ”

Everyone naturally said good things one after another, feeling that Du Xinlei missed the old, and Qin Haowen even said: "In the past, I thought that Brother Du was arrogant, but now I find out that Brother Du is a person in temperament, not a person who hates the poor and loves the rich, and those other people, alas, don't mention it." ”

Before they were in the middle of the lift, they all lived in an inn when they were preparing for the exam, and they didn't see each other when they looked up all day long, so naturally there were a lot of intersections, and Qin Hao asked this sentence from the bottom of his heart.

Du Xinlei's heart moved, "Isn't it that Brother Qin has visited a lot of people these days?" ”

"Then don't you need to say, I'm a winner, even if I can't enter the Hanlin Academy like Brother Du, I should be given a seven-grade petty official, what is it to hang me, it's okay for me to be a person, those old fritters in the officialdom don't look down on me, and those who are in the same position can't look down on me, it's really ridiculous and lamentable."

Du Xinlei simply named, "Is it Fu Moyu?" ”

Qin Hao asked and patted his thigh, "Isn't it!" ”
