Chapter 201: Encounter
The golden leopard looked horrified, but then he was covered in ecstasy, if he was hit by the jinshi, even if he was the worst from the same jinshi, his father would go from house to house to hand out silver.
Their Jin family is rich, and they are one of the best businessmen in Hangzhou, but it is useless to have money, and when they see the prefect of Hangzhou Mansion, they have to be like a grandson, so their Jin family has a lot of extravagance to hope that they can have a descendant who can stride forward on their official careers, and they can establish themselves in the capital without seeking to worship the prime minister.
"Brother, brother, do you have a way?" The golden leopard asked eagerly, because of anxiety, the flesh on his body was trembling.
Xiao Rui blinked, and found that Xiao Yan's ears had moved, and his head had already been pasted, and he smiled: "The door? What can I do, I'm just asking if you want to be a jinshi. ”
"That's it!" The money leopard suddenly regretted, it turned out that it was his own whimsy, and yes, if there is a way, the two people in front of him have grasped it, how can they talk nonsense.
The examination is a big test held in the national capital, and he has taken such a big risk of cheating in the township test, and he does not dare to mess around when he arrives in the national capital, a place where he is not familiar with life.
In his father's words, he went to the capital to know more powerful people, if he can follow any princes and generals, it is not a bad thing, if he can tie up with the prince, it is excellent to be a dog.
Xiao Yan glanced at Xiao Rui with a suspicious gaze, always feeling that his seventh brother was hiding something, but he couldn't guess what it was.
At this moment, the time for a question had arrived, and Xiao Yiheng, the king of Chu, and the four great Confucians browsed all the poems, and finally selected the three best poems, and then the best Confucian calligraphers personally went out and copied them on the white-walled corridor.
At the same time, the three poems quickly spread by word of mouth and reached everyone's ears.
"Hangzhou Mansion candidate Qian Leopard, who is this person? It's so talented! ”
"This song "Yongmei" must be the top of the list, and there is no intention to fight for spring, and the group is jealous. Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before. With such an artistic conception, the other two poems have no ability to compete at all! ”
"Yes, yes! It's a sight to behold! ”
"Actually, the other two are not bad!"
"Ha, are you blind?"
"That's right! Are you talking to the other two? ”
……
The discussion spread everywhere, and it spread all over Huayan Pond in an instant.
The golden leopard listened to the voices praising himself all around, and quickly straightened his chest, and wanted to put up a signboard and wrote: The golden leopard is here. But considering that keeping a low profile can make King Chu impressed, and he has the opportunity to slap him.
"Brother Tai is really talented, thank you very much." The money leopard immediately thanked Xiao Rui, and the more he looked at Xiao Rui, the more pleasing it became.
Xiao Rui nodded and gave him a smile full of meaning.
The money leopard saw it in his eyes, his heart chuckled, and he glanced at Xiao Yan who was with thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and his face did not show any different color.
Next, there is the second question.
Xiao Rui asked with a smile: "Brother Tai, do you still want to be famous?" ”
"No need, no need, the reputation is already very loud, and I don't want to be too famous, in case it will be embarrassing." The Golden Leopard laughed.
Xiao Rui nodded, since he couldn't make money, then forget it, he didn't participate. So he said to the leopard: "This brother, would you like to move and find a place to rest with us?" ”
The money leopard did not hesitate, and immediately agreed, he felt that the smile of the person in front of him must have a deep meaning, this is like doing business, only by seizing a business opportunity, can you make a lot of money.
Subsequently, the three of them moved away and found a gazebo to rest in the bamboo forest.
Li Yuanfang took out snacks and drinks from the bamboo basket and placed them on the stone table, Xiao Rui stretched out his hand to invite, and said, "Brother Jintai is not polite, drink it casually." ”
The money leopard looked at the dim sum and wine, and found that the dim sum turned out to be coconut glutinous rice cakes, jujube paste shortbread and pine nut lily cake, his pupils shrank sharply, and he smelled the wine carefully, and found that the wine was thick and rich, and his inner conjecture was a little more solid.
"The two brothers are from the capital?" The golden leopard had a dry mouth and couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Yan ate a snack and snorted.
Xiao Rui said: "It's not difficult to hear it from the accent, if you can guess our identity, that's the ability, are you interested in guessing it?" ”
The golden leopard took a deep breath, he felt that if he guessed correctly, it would be a great success, so he said: "The two noble statuses should be relatives of the emperor." ”
"Oh? Why? Xiao Yan wondered.
Qian Leopard said: "Ordinary families can't eat coconut-flavored glutinous rice cakes, jujube paste shortbread and pine nut lily cakes, this is a dim sum in the palace, and the production process is complicated, so the two must be powerful people in the capital." And this wine, our Jin family's business has a liquor business, the wine that the two of them drink is a tribute wine, and they want to drink it casually like the two, and the identities of the two are about to come out! ”
Xiao Rui nodded secretly, it seems that this person is not good at humanities, but he has a good ability to observe words and feelings. He was born as a businessman again, and he seems to be very smart.
"Could it be that the two of you are the princes of the county king's mansion?" The Golden Leopard asked.
Xiao Rui smiled and didn't say anything, but asked, "What kind of business does Brother Jintai's family have?" ”
Qian Leopard said: "Liquor, embroidery, grain, transportation, many of them are involved, Hengtong Chamber of Commerce is opened by my family, and it is operated on a small basis, which makes the two brothers laugh." ”
"The Hengtong Chamber of Commerce is opened by your family?" Xiao Rui was a little surprised, the family of the golden leopard was not as simple as the rich one, and it was one of the best in the entire Hangzhou. Moreover, Hangzhou has been the richest state in the Great Xia Kingdom since ancient times, so the wealth of the Jin family can also be ranked among the merchants of the Great Xia Kingdom!
It can be seen from the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce all over the country.
Xiao Rui couldn't help but think about it, and copied the Jin family, I don't know how much property there is! Will it make the treasury plump?
No wonder he grew so fat, it turned out that his family was rich, and he could squeeze dozens of catties of oil out of this body!
The money leopard shuddered, always feeling that Xiao Rui's vision was wrong, always aiming at his own meat, this is all hard work to eat one bite at a time, you want it to be absolutely no, absolutely not!
"Your family has such a big industry, it is not difficult to help you take the exam!" Xiao Rui said.
In the face of the Jin family's strong financial resources, even if the prefect of Hangzhou is an incorruptible character who does not bend his waist for five buckets of rice, he has to give you a silver smash.
Xiao Rui was engaged in official career in his previous life, and he analyzed men's three hobbies very thoroughly: money, power, and sex.
Those who have three hobbies are big corrupt officials, two are ordinary officials, and one is a clean official! One doesn't occupy it, and there are others, but that's for sublimation, the pursuit of more things, such as "fame", then it's not a hobby, and the inner addiction is good.
Therefore, the prefect of Hangzhou must have cheated for personal gain and leaked the township examination questions to the money leopard, otherwise how would he be successful?
Xiao Rui decided that if he had the opportunity to go to Hangzhou Mansion, he would definitely defeat this little tiger.
Qian Leopard did not deny Xiao Rui's words, but sighed: "Our Jin family may not be the life of studying for generations, each generation has been in private school since childhood, but it is difficult to make achievements in the imperial examination, even if he is a lifter, he finally became an official, he was quickly demoted, and even transferred to a remote place." This may be the curse of our Jin family! Therefore, the hope of the Jin family for generations is that someone will enter high school and go further in their careers! ”
Xiao Yanle said: "This is difficult, you can't even solve a simple riddle, and you still want to be a jinshi?" Unless you worship my seventh brother as a teacher, he may be able to come back to life and rescue you again! ”
"Really?" The leopard said excitedly.
Xiao Rui flatly refused.
"You're so ugly, I can't afford to lose this person! Don't talk about apprenticeship! Xiao Rui rejected his thoughts.
The golden leopard shrugged his face and sighed.
At this time, someone entered the bamboo forest, it was a subordinate of the Chu Palace, and after he came, he asked respectfully: "Excuse me, is there a money leopard candidate from Hangzhou Mansion?" ”
Xiao Rui asked, "What are you looking for the Golden Leopard for?" ”
The servant said respectfully: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu wants to meet this well-written Jin Gongzi, if the three of them are not, the villain will not bother." ”
"Wait, this is the Golden Leopard Boy." Xiao Rui pointed to the leopard and introduced.
The subordinate hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Young Master Jin, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is invited." ”
The money leopard hurriedly got up, hugged his fists in return, then looked at Xiao Rui and Xiao Yan, and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu summoned me, I don't dare to delay here, two brothers, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll set up a banquet to apologize after the end." ”
Xiao Rui smiled and nodded.
Xiao Yan quipped: "Work hard, if you tie up with my second brother, you will be able to soar." ”
"Thank you, Brother Tai Jiyan." The leopard responded, and immediately hurriedly followed the subordinate trotting out of the bamboo forest.
Seeing that the downhill was coming to Huayan Pond, the golden leopard with a happy color in the corner of his eyes was suddenly stunned.
"Second brother? His name is the second brother of King Chu? Oh my god! The leopard reacted suddenly, and his round face was full of expression.
"Jin Gongzi, let's go quickly, don't let His Highness wait." The servant urged.
The golden leopard looked around left and right, glanced at the bamboo forest, and then at the stone pavilion, at this moment, he seemed to have experienced a choice of life and death.
"My dad told me that when it comes to a big thing that can't be decided, then use the oldest and most convincing way to choose!" The money leopard said solemnly, then fell into his arms and took out a copper coin.
He bounced the coin into the sky and slapped it on the back of his hand.
"Choose the two brothers on the front, and choose the King of Chu on the back, open!" After the leopard finished reading silently, he directly lifted his fingers, and saw that the copper coin was printed with the words "Yongli Tongbao" facing up.
"Hey, God let me run out like this, and that's what I thought." The money leopard immediately made a decision, so he took out a piece of silver from his arms, handed it to his subordinates, and said: "You should have never seen me, and the king of Chu will not be able to find the money leopard." ”
After that, the golden leopard hurriedly returned to the bamboo forest, leaving only the subordinate holding the silver, touching the back of his head, and muttering, "Is this a fool?" Even His Royal Highness the King of Chu is gone, and he wasted a great opportunity in vain......"
Xiao Rui was chatting with Xiao Yan, but he didn't expect the money leopard to come back so soon.
"Two sons, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll go out for a while." The money leopard flattered.
Xiao Yan wondered, "Convenient? Didn't you go to see the King of Chu? ”
"No, no, the son heard it wrong, I am now accompanying the two sons, how can I have the time to meet the King of Chu! For the villain, accompanying the two sons is a big deal, how can the king of Chu have two important! The money leopard said righteously, then reached into his arms, took out all the silver tickets, held them with both hands, and respectfully saluted: "Two sons, be careful, not respectful." ”
Xiao Yan was a little dumbfounded, and asked, "You made a fool when you went out, and you gave money for nothing, your family is really rich." ”
Xiao Rui said: "Xiao Jiu, you just spoke and revealed, he has already guessed our identity." ”
The money leopard said respectfully: "This suave son, I think it is the famous His Royal Highness the Tang King, the villain has eyes and does not know, and I ask His Highness to forgive his sins." ”
Xiao Rui smiled and asked, "What about me?" ”
Qian Leopard said: "Your Highness is handsome and chic, there are only two people in the world who can be matched by His Royal Highness, one is His Royal Highness King Jing, and the other is His Majesty today, so His Royal Highness's identity is not difficult to guess, it must be His Royal Highness King Xian!" ”
"Makes sense! The appearance of our two brothers is well described. Xiao Yan said with satisfaction: "Put away the silver ticket, how can we be the prince... Ahem..."
Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, he witnessed Xiao Rui take the silver ticket and put it in his arms, so he didn't dare to speak, his seventh brother was too shameless, he was so short of money! Hey, I knew I wanted it too, and I didn't want any money to give, so what kind of score did I put on.
Xiao Rui put away the silver ticket and said: "This king doesn't accept your silver ticket in vain, you didn't go to the king of Chu and lost the opportunity to progress, then the king will give you a chance, and I will return to the house with this king later, and I will have good things to explain to you." ”
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness." The golden leopard was excited and even more respectful.
After leaving Huayanchi, Xiao Rui sent Xiao Yan home first, and then only Xiao Rui and the money leopard were left in the carriage.
"Money Leopard, do you remember what I asked you in Huayanchi?" Xiao Rui asked.
The golden leopard said respectfully: "The villain remembers, the villain dreams of being admitted to the Jinshi and fulfilling my father's dream." ”
Xiao Rui smiled: "Okay! I have a way for you to be admitted to the Jinshi, it depends on whether you dare or not. ”
"Your Highness, please command, with His Highness's support, the villain dares to do anything." The golden leopard said respectfully: "My father warned the villain that people die and birds are facing the sky, and they will not die for thousands of years, and everything must be done." ”
"Okay, very conscious." Xiao Rui decided, so he chose him.
"Ding Dong..."
"New task: select a candidate who is unlikely to make the list, get him to agree to cheat, and help him get on the list. The quest has been completed, Advent +40, and the current Advent is 40/100. ”
A prompt sounded in his head, this is the task given by the system, and he asked Xiao Rui to find an impossible high school candidate to help him try to cheat, hey, you said that the system is not strange, and this kind of task was issued.
Xiao Rui is also secretly careful, once he encounters the system, he must be vigilant, and there will be a pit next.
Since this is the case, then his plan has to be changed, he holds the exam questions in his hand, just to deal with Xiao Yiheng, the king of Chu, and now that the money leopard has joined it, his thinking has to change, and he must not drag himself down.
In addition, Xiao Rui hasn't told Jia Xu about the exam questions yet, because it's hard to explain. Even Wu Zhanfa knew the origin of these questions, and he didn't know that those questions would be subject exam questions.
"This drama has to be slow to be exciting." Xiao Rui calculated the details of the plan in his heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a sneer.
The golden leopard leaned against the door of the carriage, and when he saw Xiao Rui's smile, he hurriedly lowered his head in fright.
Did you fall into the tiger's den in Longtan?
