In ancient times, the exam results were fast. Like Kao Xiucai, the results came out after two days. Liang Shenghan has studied hard for more than ten years, and his writing is brilliant, and his fellow villagers think that he must be the top talent, not to mention this kind of talent. It's as easy as digging through your bag.

However, there is always a slight gap between reality and imagination. Liang Sheng, whose article has been praised by famous teachers, is off the list. I didn't even get into a showman. It seems that he is comparable to Fan Jin, who has failed many times.

But he is different from Fan Jin. That Fan Jin is at least not sick, no pain, no disaster, no difficulty. Liang Sheng was much more miserable, and he met a bad guy before the exam. There was a blow to the head, and it hurt like an explosion. During the exam, my head was in pain, and I definitely couldn't play as usual. So this exam is not his real level at all. And he is also mentally prepared for falling off the list, and he is not too sad. Big deal coming back next year.

After a day's rest, Liang Sheng's head finally stopped hurting. He had relatives in the county, and he decided to go to this relative of his.

When it comes to this relative of his, it's not an ordinary person. It happened to be the last magistrate of Qinggu County, named Yan Zheng. And Liang Sheng's father was the previous county minister. Yan Zheng and Liang Sheng's father have similar interests, both are keen on corruption and bribery, and the two have a deep relationship and simply become friends. Later, he felt that being brothers was not enough to express their like-mindedness, so he simply married his children again. At that time, Liang Sheng was only ten years old, and Yan Zheng's daughter was nine years old, and both parties thought that they would have a wedding when they both reached the age of eighteen.

However, the sky is unpredictable. This pair of greedy brothers and greedy brothers finally broke out and were both dismissed. At this critical moment, Yan Zheng gave full play to the spirit that brothers are used to sell, and put all the responsibility on Liang Sheng's father. Eventually, Liang Sheng's father's family wealth was confiscated. And Yan Zheng's family fortune did not waver at all, and he became a huge wealth in this land. Liang Sheng's father was full of grief and indignation, regretting that he had made friends carelessly, so he simply took Liang Sheng to live in seclusion in the mountains and old forests. and personally taught Liang Sheng to read, and then he became an official and then rectified the strict government.

In fact, Liang Sheng didn't care much about his father's grievances. What he is most concerned about is whether Yan Zheng's daughter Xiaoqing is married. When he was a child, he often followed his father to Yan Zheng's house to play, and he was extremely fascinated by Xiaoqing's appearance.

Liang Sheng ran to Yan Zheng's house in a hurry. It's a pity that I was blocked out when I was in front of my house. The housekeeper in Yan Zheng's house did not allow Liang Sheng to enter the door. The reason is that the guests in Yan Zheng's house are either rich or expensive. How can a countryman like Liang Sheng, who knows at a glance that he is a dumpling, be qualified to enter and leave Yan Zheng's house.

Liang Sheng didn't dare to get angry, and he had to bow his head under the eaves. He said to the butler very respectfully, "Gui Bo, you don't know me. I'm Liang Sheng. When I was a kid, my father and I used to come to your place to play. You still put me on your neck and ride, and then I peed all over your face, you don't remember. ”

Gui Bo carefully looked at Liang Sheng, who had not seen him for more than ten years, and the more he looked at it, the more he looked like it, and finally called out in surprise: "Good boy, it's really you." It's been a long time since I've seen you grow so big. ”

Liang Sheng saw that Gui Bo was so happy, he was even more happy, and hurriedly complimented Gui Bo a few words, saying that his appearance has not changed over the years, but he is getting younger and younger, just like the one in his memory.

Gui Bo was obviously very useful to his sycophants, and the more he laughed at his old mouth, the bigger he laughed. Liang Sheng thought that Gui Bo had been fully immersed in the good past, so he wanted to rush in to find Yan Zheng to catch up with the past. Who knows, he was rudely pushed away by Gui Bo. Gui Bo's smiling face suddenly turned into a face of a door god who exorcises evil spirits. He sternly asked Liang Sheng what he wanted to do?

Liang Sheng still smiled and said to Uncle Gui: "Uncle Gui, don't you see that you have already recognized me, I want to go in and talk to Uncle Yan Zheng." After all, it's hard to come out for a trip, and you always have to meet each other, right? ”

Liang Sheng thought that his words were full of admiration for the elders of the younger generations, and he expected that Uncle Gui would definitely be moved to tears, but who knows, Uncle Gui still said to Liang Sheng coldly: "No." What kind of face do you have now to go to see my lord Yan Zheng? Your father was a friend of him many years ago. Didn't our two families fall out later? I can't guess what your intentions are when you go in this time, but if you want to hurt my master, it's better for you to wait outside. ”

Liang Sheng said to Uncle Gui: "Uncle Gui, look what you are talking about. I've always admired Uncle Yan Zheng. He's the idol I've been striving for for years. I'm here purely to pay my respects, so you might as well let me in." ”

Gui Bo said to Liang Sheng, "No. It's useless for you to go in. My lord doesn't have the time to take care of an idler like you. ”

Liang Sheng said to Gui Bo: "Where am I an idler." I have a marriage contract with your young lady, Miss Xiaoqing. ”

Gui Bo said, "So you are here to marry the young lady." ”

Liang Sheng smiled and said, "Of course." After he finished speaking, it was Gui Bo's turn to congratulate him, and said that when he became Yan Zheng's fast son-in-law, don't forget Gui Bo.

Gui Bo took Liang Sheng to Yan Zheng's study. But Yan Zheng ignored Liang Sheng. Because at this time, Yan Zheng was receiving a distinguished guest. This guest of honor is none other than the great eunuch Cheng Yuanzhen. So the rich Yan Zheng was standing in front of Cheng Yuanzhen. Although Yan Zheng also gave Cheng Yuanzhen a lot of gifts when he was an official.

Cheng Yuanzhen was still standing beside a young man with a lofty apparatus. It is Cheng Yuanzhen's newly recognized righteous son. Of course, they didn't come here to say thank you to Yan Zheng for sending them a lot of money back then. It's about planning together to see how to bring down Liang Xingfa.

How do you know that Gui Bo is earnest, and before Cheng Yuanzhen and Yan Zheng have discussed the matter, he broke in with Liang Sheng, and said to Yan Zheng excitedly: "Master." You see, I brought you an uncle with a talent. ”

Yan Zheng glared at Liang Sheng, who was dressed in shabby, and said angrily to Gui Bo: "You all get out of here, don't you see that I'm busy?" ”

Gui Bo and Liang Sheng wanted to leave in a daze. Gui Bo kept complaining in his heart that Liang Sheng had embarrassed him. Who knows, Cheng Yuanzhen asked Gui Bo and Liang Sheng to wait a while with great interest. Then he asked Yan Zhengdao: "Since it is your son-in-law, why don't you call over and get to know each other together, it will be easier for multiple people to do things in the future." ”

Yan Zheng said to Cheng Yuanzhen: "This person must be a liar. My daughter is not married, so where is my son-in-law? ”

Liang Sheng was anxious when he heard this, and he shouted to Yan Zheng: "I am really your son-in-law." Uncle Yan, take a closer look, I'm Liang Sheng. Our two families have a marriage contract. ”

Yan Zheng thought about it, and finally remembered, it turned out to be the son of the old man. He asked Liang Sheng in a gentle tone, "Virtuous nephew, how is your father?" ”

Liang Sheng said sadly: "My father passed away a few months ago. I'm left alone. ”

Yan Zheng said to Liang Sheng in a mocking manner: "Oops. It's really sad to hear and cry. May his spirit in heaven rest in peace. ”

Cheng Yuanzhen also said to Liang Sheng hypocritically: "People can't be resurrected after death. You should look a little more away and think more about the future is serious. ”

Liang Sheng said to Cheng Yuanzhen very sincerely: "Thank you for your concern. ”

Yan Zheng asked Liang Sheng again: "The virtuous nephew can be famous, where is the high level?" ”

Liang Sheng said to Yan Zheng: "I don't have any fame. I came here this time to test Xiucai, but unfortunately I fell off the list. Didn't do anything else. ”

Yan Zheng suddenly felt that Liang Sheng was sick for a while. He yelled at Gui Bo again to blast Liang Sheng out. Uncle Gui was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, he pulled Liang Sheng hard. Liang Sheng shouted: "I don't need you to pull, I will go by myself." ”

At this time, Cheng Yuanzhen said again: "Wait." Liang Sheng and the others stopped again. Cheng Yuanzhen said to Yan Zheng: "Since you have a daughter, you might as well call her out to take a look." If your daughter looks as ugly as you, then it won't hurt to marry him. ”

Yan Zheng asked Gui Bo to call Xiaoqing out. But the heart is angry. Although he also knows that he is ugly, he does not like to be called ugly. If Cheng Yuanzhen was too powerful, he would have scolded him a long time ago.

Xiaoqing walked over and saluted everyone present. When she and Liang Sheng looked at each other, they were very affectionate. Liang Sheng saw Xiaoqing falling like a flower, and his heart was also rippling. Who knew that since Cheng Yuanzhen's son also fell in love with Xiaoqing, he wanted to take Xiaoqing as his wife.
