"Well, have you thought about it?" Yu De asked again.

Ye Chen shook his head: "I'm sorry Lord Yu, although I really want to go." But you also saw that Qian'er is still young, I can't rest assured, if I have the opportunity to wait for me to pass the gold list title in the temple exam that day, it's not too late. ”

"That's fine, and in that case, I can't force it. When you want to come to join the army that day, you will come to the Linzhou military camp to report my name, and you will naturally be allowed to enter, and it will not be too late then. Yu De got up and finished drinking.

In fact, Yu De also knew that Ye Chen couldn't go with him now, just a routine invitation. By the way, I told him the wishes of the Ministry of War, and if I wanted to be a soldier that day, he would be very welcome here, after all, as long as his brain is not stupid, since he has been in the middle of the Yuan, there should be a lot of hope for the palace test. Who will be an ordinary military attaché, don't want to be tired every day without any oil and water.

"Thank you, Lord Yu, if I have the opportunity to join the army another day, I will definitely look for you." Ye Chen thanked him, with his many years of experience, Yu De was sincere to him, and there was nothing particularly fake in it.

Yang Bin, who had not spoken, stood up and said: "No matter what, you can be regarded as officially acquainted, in the future, Ye Chen, if you want to enter the army, just go, Qian'er, you just leave it to me." ”

Ye Chen and Yu De hadn't spoken yet, Zhang Qian hurriedly said: "No, Qian'er wants to be with her brother, and my brother can't leave Qian'er." ”

"Okay, okay, my brother won't go, I'll always be with Qian'er." Ye Chen touched Zhang Qian's head and chuckled.

Yang Bin didn't care, he could see Zhang Qian's feelings for Ye Chen, and besides, his main purpose in accepting Zhang Qian as a righteous daughter was to win over Ye Chen. Don't look at Ye Chen as a showman now, but maybe it's really like what he said, the title of the gold list, and then the future will be limitless.

Fang Yang saw Huang Zhong outside the hall, and immediately greeted Fang Xing with a smile on his face and said, "Lord Huang, we have been looking for you for a long time, thanks to you this time." Fortunately, don't thank you yet. ”

Fang Xing was interrupted just as he was about to speak, "Master Fang, we didn't know each other on the first day, you also know how strict cheating is in the imperial examination now, you actually made it so difficult for me to do, if it wasn't for that Ye Chen's sudden rise this time, it is estimated that Ling Lang would have won the last place." Huang Zhong looked at Fang Yang and said unhappily.

What is the situation, even if he exaggerates the facts, he will not let Huang Zhongqi become like this. Fang Yang hurriedly pulled Fang Xing aside to ask him about the content of the exam, after listening to what Fang Xing said, Fang Yang was immediately furious, if it weren't for someone not far away, Fang Yang would have beaten him earlier. What a bastard, if he knew it, he wouldn't have told him that he had entrusted someone, and he didn't even know the severity at all.

"Lord Huang, don't be angry, this time it's all because Xing'er doesn't know the severity, don't worry, I'll back up and send you a generous gift as soon as I go back." Fang Yang said.

"Master Fang has a heart." At this time, Huang Zhong's face improved, and the two chatted together.

As for Fang Xing's stomach for holding back the fire tonight, first because of Ye Chen, and then because of Huang Zhong, he originally planned to come to raise his eyebrows, but he came to be angry all night.

Although the venue of this banquet was in the county office, no one came to preside over it, and everyone went to chat and make friends by themselves. At about nine o'clock, Ye Chen and a few people walked out.

Looking at the people in the corridor, Yang Bin strode to the middle of the courtyard and said, "Everyone must have almost played now, now I will announce one thing, I hope you will give me a face." After speaking, Yang Bin beckoned to Ye Chen and Zhang Qian and asked the two of them to come over.

"This young man is Ye Chen's first time in this township test, and I hope everyone will communicate with him more in the future. As for this girl, she is Ye Chen's sister, called Zhang Qian, and I accepted her as a righteous daughter, I hope you will give me someone Yang a face in the future. ”

"Lord Yang is serious, it is our honor to be able to communicate with Ye Jieyuan, I just hope that Ye Jieyuan will not lose face at that time, and Miss Qian'er, although she is young, she is also a beautiful country." Yuan Ping, who won the second place in the township test this time, said that a bunch of people below echoed his words.

After everyone continued to drink and have fun, Ye Chen looked at Zhang Qian, because it was still snowing, Zhang Qian's body had already fallen a lot of snowflakes, her pink little face was red from the cold, and she kept breathing with her hands in her mouth. Zhang Qian also noticed Ye Chen's gaze at this time, and then asked with a sweet smile: "Brother, why are you looking at me like this." ”

"Because Qian'er is good-looking, my brother has to look at Qian'er." Ye Chen said.

"Brother, don't laugh at Qian'er." Zhang Qian continued a little embarrassed: "Brother, is Qian'er really that good-looking, or are they deliberately lying because of their brother?" ”

Ye Chen touched her head and smiled: "Of course it's true, although others sometimes tell a lot of lies, but Qian'er is a real little fairy."

"Does that brother think Qian'er is good-looking?" Zhang Qian said shyly.

"It's good-looking, Qian'er has always been the best-looking in my brother's eyes." Ye Chen said without hesitation.

Zhang Qian seemed to have made a lot of determination at this time, looked at Ye Chen and said, "Is it good for that Qian'er to marry her brother when she grows up, even if she is a concubine." After saying that, Zhang Qian's little face, which was already red from the cold, turned even redder.

"Ah, what did you say?" Ye Chen didn't react at once, this change is a bit big, Qian'er is only nine years old this year, and her body is only fourteen years old. And the two of them are still brother and sister in name, Ye Chen was just about to say something, although the two are not related by blood, it doesn't affect anything, but they always feel weird, especially for such a little Lori. Finding that Zhang Qian's eyes were already red after hearing her surprise, Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Qian'er, you are still young now, if you still want to marry your brother when you grow up, then it is good for your brother to marry you." ”

"Really, my brother is not allowed to lie to me, my brother told me how long to wait." Zhang Qian said happily.

"You're only nine years old this year, so why don't you wait until you're eighteen?" Ye Chen said. Originally, Ye Chen wanted to say that she was in her twenties, but when she thought about it, in this era when it was common to get married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, letting Zhang Qian wait until twenty would undoubtedly ruin her, so she had to say an age that she barely felt was passable.

Zhang Qian's little face instantly drooped and said, "There are still nine years, is my brother serious?" ”

Ye Chen nodded: "Well, has my brother ever lied to you, as long as you don't have someone you like after nine years, and you still want to marry your brother, then my brother will marry you." ”

"Then nine years, let's make a decision, let's pull the hook." Zhang Qian stretched out her little hand and said.

"Okay, then pull the hook." Ye Chen also stretched out his hand, and finally the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

Sometimes a promise will keep countless people who can't stick to it, because faith can make people forget the length of time.
