It's mid-September in a blink of an eye, and today is the day of the township test list.

"Young master, I just saw you ...... In seventy-sixth. The little guy carefully told Jiang Yucheng about this result, and he knew that his son was in the top ten.

Sure enough, hearing this result, Jiang Yucheng stood up from his chair and said in disbelief: "What did you say!" Are you sure you read that right? Seventy-six is written with my name. ”

"Yes, indeed, the small one has watched it several times." The little guy went to humanity, rolling his eyes while thinking about where this master was going to kick this time.

Jiang Yucheng didn't kick him this time, he dragged his clothes with one hand, stared at him fiercely, and said, "If you read it wrong, cut out your tongue and gouge out your eyes." Then he threw the man aside.

It is impossible for him to only take such a ranking, his third uncle is the chief examiner this time, how could he rank his papers at the back.

Before he stepped out of the door of the restaurant, he heard a congratulatory voice, it was some of his friends and classmates, and now they all know his ranking, Jiang Yucheng only felt that these were not congratulations but sarcasm, and he thought that a few days ago he said that he was bound to win the top ten.

"Brother Jiang is now proud! If you win the move today, you will marry the fourth lady of the Li family in three days. ”

"Congratulations to Brother Jiang, can you come and have a glass of wine tomorrow!"

"That's it, that's it, this wine can't be missing."

Jiang Yucheng patiently thanked him one by one, and then squeezed out of the crowd, and as soon as he came out, he saw the housekeeper at home looking for him outside, and when he came out, the housekeeper immediately pulled him to the corner.

"Young master, I can be regarded as seeing you, the third master wants me to take a word, and the matter of this township test cannot be mentioned again......" As he spoke, he looked around and sighed, and then whispered in his ear, "Lord Zhou, who was in Qiantang for disaster relief before, has not returned to Beijing yet, and he is also there in the township test this time, and he is still staring at the third master. ”

It turned out that this was the case, Jiang Yucheng understood that now was not the time to make trouble, and this township exam had to be like this, after all, he couldn't retake the exam again.

He was still thinking about waiting for his hometown to try, and then find someone to kill Yan Rui first, and then make the plan to bring down the Yan family, and then Li Tianyan didn't want to do whatever he wanted, but now this idea can only be suppressed in his heart, and he can't do anything if he doesn't leave for a day.

At the same time, Yan Lin, who was supposed to be in Nanxiangzhai, appeared in the rain shelter ten miles away from the county seat.

It was Zhang Ting who said that he was going to meet here, I thought that Zhang Ting was here alone, but I didn't expect that there were a few more people, the only one sitting here was a middle-aged man with medium height and broad eyebrows, his clothes were worth a lot of money at a glance, and there was a dark jade pendant hanging from his waist, his face was fair, he seemed not to be angry and self-righteous and bookish, it is estimated that he is the adult behind Zhang Ting, such a person definitely does not feel like a corrupt official at first glance; Far behind stood four guards.

"I've seen this man." Neither humble nor arrogant.

"It's a bit of an eyesight, and it's presentable." These words were said to Zhang Ting beside him.

"Thank you for your compliment, don't be stupid." Zhang Ting's shrewd eyes rolled wildly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Thank you, sir." Yan Lin said, this people don't fight with officials, and he doesn't care about bowing more.

"Tell me the results you found, and if you don't find anything, don't blame the adults for being ruthless."

Seeing that Zhang Ting and the previous were two faces, Yan Lin didn't feel anything about it, there were some such highs and lows around him as an official, wasn't Lin Zhixian in Lin'an County at the beginning, and he flattered Jiang Zhouyun vigorously.

"I don't know if I can fulfill my promise and tell me the news of my biological father." Yan Lin asked tentatively, he is not as bottom-up as he seems on the surface, and these officials are not easy to deal with.

"It depends on whether the news you check is what our adults need, if it is some useless news, there is no need to talk about this matter, you can also go back and ask Yan Qisong." Zhang Ting replied.

Since that sentence, the middle-aged man sitting there has not said a word, as if this matter has nothing to do with him.

Yan Lin glanced at the middle-aged man who was sitting upright, he also had no hope for what he had just proposed, after all, just looking at their posture, he knew that if he didn't cooperate, he would suffer a loss.

Seeing that he hadn't opened his mouth yet, the adults seemed to be in a hurry again, and Zhang Ting said again, "Don't worry, don't worry, don't you believe me?" After the adult nods, I will tell you the news of your father, and I will never break my promise before, so you can say it quickly. ”

Yan Lin had to believe it, and told them all the news he got from Jiang Yue that day, and after speaking, he saw the corner of the middle-aged man's mouth smiling.

"Yes, the virtuous nephew really has nothing to say about this, and he checked it so carefully." Zhang Ting got Zhou Xi's eyes and knew that this matter was done, and when the time came, a little effort would be able to make Jiang Zhouyun unable to turn over.

Yan Lin understood their eye contact and said, "Tell me now." ”

"Let's go." Zhou Xi said a word, and left with the four guards, leaving Zhang Ting.

"Slow down, adults." Zhang Ting said when he came out of the pavilion.

Nan Xiangzhai, the guys and the master in the store couldn't find Yan Lin, the temporary owner, for a long time, and some things and things had to be seen by the owner, so the guys in the store had no choice but to go to Yan's mansion.

As soon as Yan Rui learned that Yan Lin didn't go today, he thought to himself what Brother Lin was doing, where did he go at this time, and he didn't say a word in advance if he didn't go to the store, wasn't he well managed before, Li Tianyan also heard it on the side, so he went to Nanxiangzhai with him.

Yan Lin didn't go back to the house until the afternoon of the next day, Yan Rui asked the guy in the store, saying that the second young master went out with a person not long after he came in the morning yesterday, and he didn't say when he would come back.

Although Yan Lin didn't return home much a few days ago, he would go to Nanxiangzhai every day, and he would go back to his house during the day, and he had never seen anyone for two days, Yan Rui was afraid that something would happen to him, so he sent someone to inquire about where Yan Lin lived when he didn't go home.

When Yan Rui arrived at the Yunsheng Inn, it was already evening, he didn't know why Yan Lin didn't return to the guest house outside, went up to the second floor, found the room that Yan Lin had booked, and before he went in, he smelled a strong smell of choking wine, and when he pushed the door, the ground was messy, the furniture inside was turned to the ground, and the broken wine jar and wine glasses were everywhere.

"How did it get like this, how do I do business?" The shopkeeper who followed behind chattered for a while.

"Take it." Yan Rui took out a piece of silver and gave him compensation as compensation.

"Enough, enough, if you invite me, I won't bother you," the shopkeeper smiled and took the money and went downstairs.

As soon as Yan Rui entered, he saw Yan Lin sitting at the table with his head down, still holding a small jar of wine in his arms, drunk and didn't know what he was talking about, his voice was very small, and Yan Rui could hear it clearly when he got closer.

"Why is this so! Hehehe" Yan Lin suddenly let out a sullen laugh, lifted the jar of wine and poured it into his mouth.
