Hearing this, Zhao Ruxi's brows furrowed.

Originally, one of these two people was the first place in the test, and the other was the fifth place in the test, and it was very likely that they were first-class jinshi, and Zhao Ruxi, the second place in the test, was also on par, and they were very good at each other.

In addition, the ancient Jinshi paid special attention to the affection of the same year. The so-called same year refers to the person who was admitted to the Jinshi in the same year.

Because everyone stepped into the officialdom together, the starting point is almost the same, this is fate, and it is also a very important connection, which is completely different from the previous classmates and friends.

In the same year, because I wanted to be an official, there were many common topics, and when I encountered problems in office, I could write letters to each other to discuss, and I could also pour out my depression and troubles. And no one is sure whether they will be developed in the future, so try to make friends, everyone supports each other, exchanges news, and makes progress together.

Therefore, these two people came to show goodwill, if Zhao Ruxi was a man, it would be beneficial and harmless to befriend them.

But Zhao Ruxi is a woman, and the situation is different.

She didn't know what kind of person Lu Shan was. But Duan Chen was a young and handsome man, and she knew it. Although I don't know whether he is married or not, or whether he is married, Zhao Ruxi always suspects that his motives for coming to the door are not pure.

She has no intention of having anything to do with these people in terms of feelings, marriage and love, so it is naturally better not to have contact, so as not to make people think too much and add many incidents. Moreover, she also cares about her reputation.

Zhao Ruxi handed the post to Dianjiang: "Don't go out today, go back to these posts one by one." Let's just say that I don't have time, and there are no men in the family, so it is inconvenient to receive their visits. I didn't have time to attend the conference. ”

Because of his cleverness, Dianjiang was focused on training by Zhao Ruxi, and he has been working hard to read, practice, and learn arithmetic in the past two years, and now he can stand alone.

However, this kind of thing has always been handled by Qingfeng before. Now Qingfeng wants to go out with Zhao Ruxi, and this task is handed over to Dianjiang.

Dianjiang was so excited that her little face turned red, took the post, and bowed to Zhao Ruxi dignifiedly: "Yes, the slave must handle this matter." ”

Zhao Ruxi turned his head to the concierge and said, "I'm going to Kangfu, if someone from the Ministry of Rites comes to look for me when I'm not at home, you can go to Kangfu to find me." ”

"Yes, girl." The porter didn't know why the people from the Ministry of Rites came to look for his girl, but he still answered, and kept it firmly in his heart.

After a meal, in a second house in the south of the city, a subordinate hurriedly entered a courtyard, stood at the door and shouted inside: "Childe." ”

"Come in." A Qingyue voice sounded in the room.

The subordinate went in and handed over the things in his hand: "A reply from the Suiping Bofu." ”

Duan Chen was holding a book in his hand, and when he heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly took the reply and opened it to read.

Immediately, his face was full of disappointment.

He asked, "Wenyue, are you sure you inquired clearly?" That Zhao Zhiwei really didn't marry anyone? ”

A small guy who was staying in the house hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The villain has inquired clearly." This Zhao Zhiwei is a celebrity in the capital, and the movement is not small, and the experience is quite legendary, so the people in the Beijing teahouse talk about her. The villain has inquired again in the past few days, and is sure that she has not decided to marry. ”

Duan Chen pointed to the reply on the table and said sullenly: "But she directly rejected my visit." ”

Her father was an official in another country, and her younger brother went with him. There is no male host in the house, so it is indeed inconvenient to receive male guests. The little guy hurriedly found a reason, "It's not that I don't look down on the child." ”

Duan Chen's ancestors were also considered to be in the upper middle range in Jiangnan, and his father was admitted to the Jinshi and served as a county magistrate in a wealthy county in Anzhou Province. Duan Chen has been smart since he was a child, and he worshipped a famous teacher in Jiangnan at the age of seven; Sixteen-year-old Xie Yuan, seventeen-year-old Huiyuan, plus his county test and government are the first place, not only the proper small three yuan, but also the big three yuan is about to arrive.

With such an achievement at a young age, Duan Chen's vision is also very high, and he can't look down on ordinary people. The family took care of his relatives for him, and he couldn't look down on the first talented woman in Jiangnan and the first beauty in Jiangnan.

When he arrived in the capital, he heard about Zhao Zhiwei's achievements and deeds, and learned that she was not married, so he included her in the scope of the investigation. When I saw it yesterday, I found that Zhao Zhiwei was extremely beautiful, and it had grown to his aesthetics, so he felt that this was his destined person. Today, I couldn't wait to send a prayer post, and in order to show my sincerity, I went there in person.

I didn't expect to be rejected.

Although he is proud, he is not incapable of persuasion. He didn't even think that Zhao Zhiwei rejected him because he didn't fancy him. The reason why she refused was definitely because the little guy said that this reason was right.

He nodded, "You have a point. In this way, you take the two of you to stay at the mouth of the alley where Suipingbo's Mansion is located from tomorrow to find out the whereabouts of Miss Zhiwei. When the time comes, we will meet her once outside and express our hearts. ”

"Still Childe has a way." Wen Yue hurriedly patted his ass.

The same situation played out in a small courtyard in the west of the city rented by Lushan.

They are inquiring about Zhao Ruxi's news, and many ladies in the capital are also inquiring about their news.

Among them, Xiangyang Princess Xiao Ruoyu is the most.

For this daughter, Concubine Jin really loves her, and she was looking for a candidate for her to attach a horse a few years ago. Helplessly, Xiao Qi always said that Xiangyang was too young and had not yet been determined, so it was not appropriate to make a marriage early, but she was stunned that she was not allowed to marry. A while ago, Xiao Ruoyu and Xu, Concubine Jin went to ask Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi said that she would let her pick a colt among the newly promoted Jinshi.

As Xiao Qi's favorite concubine who has been favored for more than ten years, Concubine Jin knows Xiao Qi very well. She was born in a small family, and she has been in the harem for many years, and she also has a certain understanding of political affairs.

Since the generation of the first emperor, he began to be afraid of the family, feeling that his rights were divided by the family, and he was bound to do anything, and he had to consider the interests of the family. Therefore, the eldest princess of Shangde and several other princesses, Shang's concubines are all from small families or simply commoners.

For example, the concubine of the eldest princess of Shangde is a poor man, brave and good at fighting, and has made great achievements at a young age. The first emperor saw that he was handsome, smart, and literate, and loved to study military books, and the eldest princess of Shangde did not object after seeing him, so she married her daughter to him.

Now the concubine of the eldest princess of Shangde is stationed in southern Xinjiang.

The Great Jin Dynasty has many restrictions on military power, and although the horses lead the troops, it is not easy for the soldiers who want to call the army. The royal family will not let the horses hold great power in the army, and will send other generals to contain each other. Therefore, the Great Jin Dynasty did not have a provision for letting the horse be a furnishing without achievements.
