Volume 1 Chapter 99 Good News
Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.
During this time, Yang Cong either accompanied Wang Xuan and Yu Dayou to study the "Annotations on the Collection of Chapters and Sentences of the Four Books", or discussed the "Principle of Knowing from Things", or went to consult Liu Shouliang and Xu Jie, and the life was quite peaceful.
However, the peaceful day was soon broken, and that afternoon, he was studying the "Notes on the Four Books and Chapters and Sentences" with Wang Xuan and Yu Dayou, and Xu Jie actually ran over from Fucheng to find him in person!
Yang Cong received the notice from the nursing home, and hurriedly took Wang Xuan and Yu Dayou to the gate of Yang's mansion.
Xu Jie was standing under the archway outside the gate at this time admiring the couplets in his handwriting, he was smiling, nodding frequently, and his mood seemed to be quite good.
Yang Cong ran out and looked at Xu Jie's appearance, and his heart was finally steady, okay, okay, this expression is definitely not anything bad.
He hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand: "Brother Zisheng is here, I am sorry, I am sorry." ”
Seeing this, Xu Jie stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, and laughed: "Brother Qingfeng, this is the outside, let's go inside and talk." ”
This heat always makes Yang Cong a little inexplicable in his heart, although he faintly understands that Xu Jie wants to use himself to deal with the maritime giants, but he still can't understand why Xu Jie is so hot with him, even if he is a high school jinshi, he is the future cabinet chief, a little jinshi is a fart in his eyes.
This guy is really incomprehensible.
Yang Cong sighed secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he enthusiastically took Xu Jie's arm, welcomed Xu Jie's into the lobby of his main house, and ordered someone to serve fragrant tea, so he was curious: "Brother Zisheng has worked tirelessly to come from Fucheng, is there something big?" ”
Xu Jie nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, there is a big event, and it is a great thing, Brother Qingfeng, guess what?" ”
A great thing?
I am the first in the college exam, even in the middle of the three yuan, what other good things can be, this year there is no guarantee place, even if I even win the three yuan, it is impossible to be exempted from the test to become a lifter, is it possible to give yourself a big official?
This is obviously impossible, he is just a showman, and being a nine-grade sesame official is enough.
He shook his head puzzled and said, "This, the little brother really can't guess." ”
When Xu Jie heard this, he couldn't help but look at him in surprise, and then smiled: "Brother Qingfeng, I'm afraid that you are studying too hard, you can forget such an important thing?" ”
Yang Cong couldn't help but say embarrassedly: "Brother Zisheng, what the hell is going on, the younger brother really doesn't remember." ”
Xu Jie was still a little surprised and asked, "I really don't remember?" ”
Yang Cong nodded honestly and said, "I really don't remember." ”
Seeing this, Xu Jie couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head: "Brother Qingfeng, although there is Yan Ruyu in this book, you can't read and forget the real Yan Ruyu, let me give you a reminder, Master Zhang Yue and Master Zhang wrote back to me." ”
Zhang Yue?
Zhang Zhen!
Yang Cong finally remembered, it seems that Xu Jie had told him more than a year ago that as long as he can be admitted to Xiucai, he can become Zhang Yue's fast son-in-law.
He had forgotten about it.
This can't be blamed on him, because of the Zhang family's excessive "tsundere", he originally didn't have much hope for this marriage, plus he met Lu Ling'er who had no frame later, and the two of them were almost engaged for life, he would still think about the ethereal Zhang Zhen, at this time he just wanted to pass the township test, the meeting test and the palace test, and then marry Lu Ling'er.
Unexpectedly, he forgot, but Xu Jie didn't forget.
At this moment, Yang Cong was really confused.
Xu Jie didn't know that he had made a private agreement with Lu Ling'er for life, how could he tell others about this?
Embarrassing!
He was stunned for a moment, and then said tentatively: "What did Master Zhang say?" ”
Anyway, I haven't talked to Zhang Zhen at this time, so let's see what Zhang Yue means.
Xu Jiezhen didn't expect Yang Cong to have such an attitude towards this marriage, Yang Cong is like this, it seems that he has no hope of marrying Zhang Zhen!
This can't be done, Zhang Yue has faintly intended to fight against the storm of the court with them in the same vein as Yangming in the letter, and such a figure who is expected to control the Metropolitan Procuratorate cannot be easily missed.
He thought about it, and simply pretended to be happy for Yang Cong, and said excitedly: "Brother Qingfeng, congratulations, what Lord Zhang means, let you hurry up and meet Zhang Zhen, if Zhang Zhen doesn't object, wait for this time to try, and you can get married." ”
What he said was not true, Zhang Yue's meaning was actually similar to that of Lu Song and his wife, and people also felt that Yang Cong's status was too low, and he had to rely on a jinshi to match Zhang Zhen.
However, he is not completely deceiving Yang Cong with this, he thinks that with Yang Cong's ability, it will definitely not be a problem to take the exam this time, as long as Yang Cong can be lifted, he is sure to persuade Zhang Yue to agree to let Yang Cong and Zhang Zhen marry, after all, this Jinshi is not so easy to get into, Yang Cong is not surprised to take the exam a few more times, and he can't let Zhang Zhen wait another three or even six years.
Therefore, in his opinion, the most important thing is this blind date, as long as Yang Cong can win Zhang Zhen's favor, this family affair will be completed nine times out of ten.
Yang Cong is in a daze at this moment.
Blind date?!
Well, there's no need for this, right?
Lu Linger has already secretly promised him, is it still necessary for him to go on a blind date with Zhang Zhen?
He looked at Xu Jie's face full of "excitement", and it was not easy to sweep away the interest of others, he thought about it, and simply said vaguely: "This, Brother Zisheng, people are beautiful women, can you take a fancy to a merchant like me?" ”
Yang Cong is obviously retreating, how can this work, Xu Jie hurriedly encouraged: "Brother Qingfeng, you are a talented person in Lianzhong Sanyuan, coupled with your personable appearance, how many girls can not secretly promise, you can go with confidence, I guarantee that you can capture the heart of the beauty." ”
This, to deceive a girl who is alone and does not understand the world, he is still sure, how to drop, he is also a rich and handsome person, the problem is that he doesn't want to deceive others, he is already famous, okay.
He was hesitating there, and suddenly the old lady Yang Rong's laughter came from outside the door, "Hahahaha, Lord Xu is here, it's really brilliant, the old man has gone out with something, and he hasn't greeted him in person, and he still looks at Lord Xu Haihan." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, Yang Rong appeared at the door of the lobby with a spring breeze on his face.
Yang Cong hurriedly got up and welcomed him in, and directly gave him to the main seat, Xu Jie also hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "The old lady is polite, Xu came in a hurry, without prior notice, it is really a bit presumptuous." ”
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the old lady Yang Rong asked about the purpose of Xu Jie's trip, and when he learned that Xu Jie actually wrote a letter to Zhang Yue to lobby for the Yang family and the Zhang family, he was naturally grateful.
As for the blind date, he was even more overjoyed.
About Lu Ling'er, Yang Cong naturally told him a long time ago.
However, he did not see much hope for the matter.
Lu Linger's mother is the emperor's nurse, and Lu Linger's father is still in command of Jinyi Weidu, will this kind of wealthy dignitaries take a fancy to his family, this matter is too unreliable, he feels that the Zhang family near Dongling is more reliable.
Therefore, Xu Jiegang fooled him a few words, and he should make a decision, and take Yang Cong on a blind date tomorrow.
As soon as this old lady Yang Rong spoke, Yang Cong had no way to be ambiguous, so he could only go to Dongling Zhang's house to try.
This is the whole thing, Zhang Zhen really likes him, but how can he get it!
