Baihe Academy has five classes: A, B, C, D, and E, and the students are both children of seven or eight years old and young people in their twenties.

Although Li Hongyu was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he was able to be placed in Class A with Liu Dongfu and Li Hongyi, who were seventeen or eighteen years old, because of his good schoolwork, and he had suffered a lot in the past two years.

Li Hongyu didn't want others to see that he was different from before, so he lowered his head all the way and put on a cowardly appearance.

"Young master, they seem to say that you were pushed into the water." Wang Tieniu, who was following behind Li Hongyu, heard those students talking about Li Hongyu's falling into the water, so he walked a few steps quickly and said with a surprised expression.

"They're talking nonsense, ignore them." A sneer flashed at the corner of Li Hongyu's mouth, and then he whispered to Wang Tieniu to ignore those discussions.

"Got it, young master." Wang Tieniu nodded, although he felt puzzled in his heart, but since he was here to serve Li Hongyu, then what Li Hongyu said, he would do something.

"Look, the son-in-law of the Dragon King is here!"

When Li Hongyu walked into the Class A school, there were already a lot of people inside, gathering in groups to chat, and after seeing him, a stout student couldn't help but shout.

With a bang, a burst of laughter broke out in the school, and everyone knew that this stout student was mocking Li Hongyu for falling into the water.

Li Hongyu's eyes couldn't help but flash an imperceptible coldness, he clearly remembered the voice that mocked him, so he couldn't help but look up and look coldly at the stout student who was laughing.

More than two months ago, it was this stout student who pushed him off the shore into the water, and not only that, but also prevented others from coming to the rescue, and watched with a grin as he cried out for help and struggled in the water.

If it weren't for a passing fishing boat that saved Li Hongyu, then the Li family's third room would have started the funeral at that time, so Li Hongyu hated the stout student in his heart.

The stout student is also surnamed Li, named Li Hongqing, a son of a branch of the Li family, and is Li Hongyu's distant cousin in terms of generation.

The handsome white-clothed boy sitting on the stool next to Li Hongqing was Li Hongyi, holding his chest with both hands, looking coldly at Li Hongyu who entered the door, his face was full of disdain.

When the dying Li Hongyu was rescued from the water by the fisherman on the fishing boat, Li Hongyi was really startled, knowing that this was a catastrophe.

Although Li Hongyu let him bully, no matter how he was the future principal of the Li family's third room, he fell into the water and drowned in such an inexplicable manner, and the Zhao family would definitely not give up, and the people from the yamen were bound to come to investigate.

Therefore, Li Hongyi has already calculated in his heart, in case Li Honggan pushes Li Hongyu into the water is exposed, he will leave Li Hongqing alone.

In fact, because Li Hongyi knew that Li Hongyu couldn't swim, he didn't have the idea of pushing him into the water, and it was Li Hongyi who deliberately did it in order to curry favor with him.

Because he hated Mrs. Li for giving Li Hongyu the most profitable grain business in the family, Li Hongyi acquiesced to Li Hongyu's approach, and sat back and watched him push Li Hongyu into the water, which almost caused a catastrophe.

It was precisely because he couldn't let go of the fact that the grain business was "robbed" by Li Hongyu, Li Hongyi, who was originally very friendly to Li Hongyu, began to bully him, and Li Hongyu's obedience made his humiliation even worse, and now bullying Li Hongyu is already commonplace for Li Hongyi.

"Young master, why did he say that you are the son-in-law of the Dragon King?" Li Hongyu ignored Li Honggen's ridicule, lowered his head and found his seat to sit down, Wang Tieniu asked puzzled while placing pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table.

"Your young master went down to the water that day to find the daughter of the Dragon Lord, Hua Qianyuexia, and almost left behind to become the son-in-law of the Dragon Lord." Li Honggan heard Wang Tieniu's words and said with a laugh, which made the school hall think of a burst of laughter again.

"Young master, he's making fun of you, I'll teach him a lesson!" Wang Tieniu understood now and knew that Li Hongyu was sarcastically mocking Li Hongyu, so he raised his fist like a bowl and said to Li Hongyu.

"Go and rest." Li Hongyu shook his head and motioned for Wang Tieniu to leave, so he didn't want to pay attention to this boring battle of words.

Hearing this, Wang Tieniu had no choice but to give up the idea of teaching Li Hongqing a lesson, and glanced at Li Honggan behind him and walked out expressionlessly, there is a room in the academy dedicated to resting for subordinates like them.

Seeing this, the students in the academy burst into laughter again, they had long known that the timid and cowardly Li Hongyu would not dare to let Wang Tieniu go to Li Honggan for trouble.

Li Hongyu sat in his seat with his head down, sneering in his heart, the more he was despised, the greater the chance of revenge, because the other party would not be wary of him at all.

"Second son, a maid named Rou'er next to the coward looks very smart, is the second son interested?" Li Honggen glanced at Li Hongyu with disdain, and then said to Li Hongyi with a smile on his face, his eyes full of ambiguous looks.

"If you like her, you can figure it out yourself, and whether you can succeed depends on your own ability." Li Hongyi's eyes lit up when he heard this, but then he dimmed and replied quietly.

Although Li Hongyi also wants to get Rou'er, Rou'er is Li Hongyu's personal maid after all, if he does this, then he will be bullying the head of the Li family's third room.

Don't look at the fact that Sanfang is weak now, but he has the support of his fourth uncle Li Renbo, and the clan elders don't want to see Li Hongyu and Zhao, the two orphans and widows, bullied too hard, otherwise it will make Dafang fall into passivity, so he gave up the idea of having a kiss with Fang Ze.

Since Li Hongqing wants to fight Rou'er's idea, then Li Hongyi naturally won't stop it, he is waiting to see a good show, once Rou'er is ruined by Li Hongqing, then the face of the Li family's third room will be gone, as for Li Honggen's life and death, it is not something he cares about.

"Second son Xie!" Li Hongqing was overjoyed when he heard this, he didn't expect that he would be able to try it this time, so that he wouldn't wear the leftover broken shoes that Li Hongyi used every time.

"Sanshao, discuss something with you, my son has taken a fancy to your maid Rou'er, find a time to bring it out and serve my son!"

Then, under the gaze of Li Hongyi and others, Li Hongqing swaggered to Li Hongyu's side, leaned over and hugged Li Hongyu's neck and whispered in his ear.

Li Hongyu's brows suddenly frowned slightly when he heard this, and his eyes couldn't help flashing a murderous intent, he didn't expect Li Hongyu to beat Rou'er's idea, this is simply looking for death.

"This ......" In order not to startle the snake, Li Hongyu forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, deliberately pretending to be panicked, looking a little panicked.

"If you don't agree, this son won't let you drink river water next time!" Li Hongqing was very satisfied with Li Hongyu's reaction, and if he were someone else, he would definitely be furious, so he decided to scare Li Hongyu while the iron was hot, so he hugged Li Hongyu's neck and threatened viciously.

"Soft ...... Rouer doesn't ...... If you won't agree, you have to ...... If you let ...... It's bad if my mother knows...... Oops! Li Hongyu looked at the fierce Li Hongqian and stammered, looking very scared.

"This son doesn't care, if you can't let Rou'er serve this son within three days, then this son will be unkind to you." Li Hongqing sneered, waved his fist at Li Hongyu and walked away.

It is worth mentioning that when Li Hongyu was rescued by a passing fisherman from the river, Li Hongqing was so frightened that he was terribly frightened, don't look at him usually relying on Li Hongyi to fly high, but Li Hongyu is the concubine of the Li family, I don't know how many times higher than him, according to the clan rules, if he commits evil deeds in a situation like him, he will be hanged.

Therefore, Li Hongqing, who was a thief after Li Hongyu's accident, hid in his aunt's house in other places, and inquired about the news of Baihe Town in a panic.

It wasn't until he learned that Li Hongyu didn't confess after waking up and pushed him into the water that he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to Baishui Town, not only did he not repent, but he was even more bold and reckless, he decided that Li Hongyu was a weak and bullying person, so he didn't have the slightest restraint, so this time he actually hit Rou'er with the idea.

The triumphant Li Hongqing didn't notice that Li Hongyu, who was "frightened" by him and couldn't even speak, looked at his back when his eyes flashed a cold cold light, since Li Hongqing was looking for death, then Li Hongyu didn't mind fulfilling this lustful dog thing.

Li Hongyi, who returned triumphantly, was warmly welcomed by Li Hongyi's followers, Li Hongyi shook his head at Li Hongyu in disappointment, a look of pity appeared on his face, he didn't expect Li Hongyu to be so trapped that he couldn't even protect his own woman!

"The Master is here!"

At this time, a voice sounded, and the students hurriedly returned to their seats, and the school hall fell silent in an instant.

The master who entered the school was Li Hongyu's fourth uncle, Li Renbo, who looked a little thin but full of energy, and this time he brought news related to the county exam to be held in February next year.

It's already September, and usually around October, the county will announce the time of the county exam, and those who want to refer to it at this time have to report to the county office.

The documents to be filed not only include the name, age, place of origin, physique and appearance characteristics of the candidates who took the examination, but also fill in the history of the three generations of great-grandparents, grandparents, and parents.

In addition to the confession, there are also two procedures to go through, "mutual association" and "affidavit", in order to prevent candidates from cheating.

The so-called "mutual settlement" refers to the mutual settlement of insurance policies between five candidates who take the exam, and if anyone cheats, the five people will sit together.

And the "affidavit" means that the candidate asks the county's widow to have a guarantee, to ensure that he does not impersonate, does not hide his funeral, does not take a stand-in, does not have a false name, ensures that his net worth is innocent, and he is not the son or grandson of a prostitute.

After completing the above three steps, you can obtain the qualification for the examination, and the roster will be stored in the county office.

As for the Xiu Sheng, it refers to the Xiucai who enjoys the support of the imperial court, and is the best among the Xiu Cai, and Li Renbo is the senior Xiu Sheng in the county.

"Li Hongyu, you are still young, don't participate in this county test first." After announcing the list of five people, Li Renbo said to Li Hongyu in a deep voice.

Considering Li Hongyu's initial recovery from a serious illness and his young age, Li Renbo wanted him to take the county exam in two years, so that he would be more sure.

"Yes!" Li Hongyu nodded honestly when he heard this, looking obedient, although he had decided to participate in this county exam, he couldn't show it now, because according to his previous character, he would never argue with Li Renbo.
