The apprenticeship in Qingyuan Mansion is about the first day of the fifth month, which means starting from scratch. Riding a horse with He Wang to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion again, Tang Tong was wearing a jinshi uniform. Hand the name card you wrote yesterday to the doorman, and it will be written; Tang Tong, the new science and technology practitioner, paid a visit to his mentor Chen. The government soldiers directly let Tang Tong in, and the family Ding led the way, passing through a courtyard, and then passing through a courtyard, this is the living room of the Chen Mansion Assembly.

There were already two people in the hall who didn't know each other, wearing the same jinshi uniform, Tang Tong thought he was early enough, but he didn't expect these two to be earlier. The three saluted each other, asked for their names and sat down for tea. Soon Zhang Yicheng, Yang Weibiao, Hu Xiyu, Yu Jian and Xiang Guozhen came one after another, everyone was wearing Jinshi clothes, only Hu Xiyu's Tanhua suit was the most conspicuous, everyone cast envious eyes, Yang Weibiao kept touching around, talking to Hu Xiyu, only he was the most active.

"Qingyuan Hou has arrived!", the general shouted. From behind the screen in the hall, out walked a man of about sixty years old, dressed in a marquis's suit, and a bright man. Next to him was a young man in his twenties, who was also in Jinshifu, and this person was Chen Dingxian.

After Chen Dehuai, the Marquis of Qingyuan, sat down, Chen Dingxian also joined them, knelt down together and shouted together; "Meet the Teacher!", the words were recited, and then everyone bowed three times.

"Get up! Everybody get up! Hu Xian's nephew sits here.", Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai said, pointing to the first seat on the left. Hu Xiyu sat down, and Chen Dingxian, who came out with Chen Dehuai, Marquis of Qingyuan, sat in the first seat on the right.

"This year's new department, there are twenty-six Jinshi in my Qingyuan Hou Mansion, everyone already knows each other!", everyone nodded.

"The champion is Lan Tingshu of the Yunyang Hou Mansion, the list is Li Bin, the doorman of the Song State Mansion, Tanhua is Hu Xiyu of the Qin State Mansion, and we account for seven of the top 20 people.", everyone smiled when they heard it. Chen Huaide didn't mention the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, after all, the Qin State Mansion was much more brilliant than his Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, and besides, it was a relationship with himself, so he didn't have to have a lining, and he also had to save face.

"These twenty-three people are all powerful, the top three martial arts exams are all full scores, Hu Xian's nephew is a little worse because of his strategy, so he succumbed to Tanhua.", Chen Dehuai paused, "Although there is a student who is not very outstanding in the martial arts exam, his strategy, I and the monk recognize him as the first. Tang Tong!", the voice was very open, and everyone heard it clearly.

Tang Tongbai was standing in the back, so he sat in the last row of seats, and when he heard Lord Chen calling himself, he stood up, "Teacher! Students in!".

Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai looked at him, "Where are you from?", Tang Tong replied immediately; "Student, Shanxi Wutai people.".

"I think your writing is very good, who is your teacher?", asked Chen Dehuai, Marquis of Qingyuan.

"I went to a private school in my hometown, worshiped a teacher in the Xuanfu army, and was taught by my mentor Chen in Datong Mansion.", Tang Tong said in detail.

"Good! Able to be literary and martial, no wonder there is such insight, please sit!", Chen Dehuai, Marquis of Qingyuan, continued; "Everyone will support each other in the future, and you can report the name of my Qingyuan Marquis Mansion.", Chen Huaide smiled proudly.

Everyone stood up and thanked in unison, "Thank you, teacher!", Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai also got up, "I still have something to do, let's talk to each other, stay and eat lunch before leaving!", after speaking, he turned around and went back to the backyard.

"This is my young master Chen Dingxian, the second place in the second class.", at this time, Steward Chen stood next to Chen Dingxian and introduced. Everyone gave up, "Brother Chen!", in fact, there are not many people here who don't know Chen Dingxian, but they are still very respectful in terms of etiquette.

Because everyone is on the same list, they are commensurate with the same year, regardless of age, and they are called brothers, which is already a very respectful title. Tang Tong and 25 people met each other in the same year and chatted, Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng ranked among the top three. There is also a gap in the same year, and the second and third are an invisible ditch. But Tang Tong didn't mind, more time to chat with Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng, Hu Xiyu was surrounded by everyone in the same year, and there was no chance to get close to the three of them, but Chen Dingxian ran to the backyard to find Chen Dehuai, the Marquis of Qingyuan. Yu Jian and Xiang Guozhen had their own group of friends, and they didn't have time to come over, but Tang Tong talked happily with Yang Weibiao and Zhang Yicheng.

Drinking at noon is mainly to contact feelings, Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai opened the banquet today, and said that it is nothing more than to let everyone feel at ease at the grassroots level, as long as there is a chance in the future, it will be promoted, and it is also possible to go to the capital on an errand, and he drew a big pie at the beginning. Everyone listened to it, but Tang Tong felt that it was too unrealistic. Chen Dingxian and Hu Xiyu were arranged on the left and right sides of Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai, and they have been accompanying Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai.

Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai began to toast at each table, Chen Dingxian and Hu Xiyu accompanied him, the previous brotherhood was weakened, and it was the right thing to tie up with the powerful. Tang Tong sat at the same table with Zhang Yicheng and Yang Weibiao. and Zhang Yang drank the most wine and chatted the most. After Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai left the table, Chen Dingxian and Hu Xiyu came to drink with Tang Tong and the three of them, and everyone is a good brother when they drink wine. After the five of them drank for a round, everyone was a little drunk when they talked and laughed.

Tang Tong was not on the banquet, and saw the opportunity to pull Chen Ding aside first, "Chen Shao!" Can you take me to meet Master Hou alone?", he was very anxious and looked at him with blank eyes.

Chen Dingxian was a little puzzled, "Brother Tang, what do you want to see Master Hou alone?".

Tang Tong pushed him, "It's not a matter of incumbency yet!".

Chen Dingxian deliberately teased him, "It's not that no! You have to promise me one condition.".

Tang Tong didn't expect Chen Dingxian to be so unfriendly, but he had to pretend to be angry when he had something to ask for, "You say!".

"One day we will go to Sang Rixuan to listen to music.", Chen Dingxian couldn't help laughing as soon as he said it.

Tang Tong understood what he meant, as long as Tang Tong went to Gu Yuanyuan to pay the bill absolutely, Tang Tong's last love was gone. Tang Tong pretended not to know, "Okay! I'll go one day when you talk!".

Chen Dingxian politely beckoned, "Follow me!", and walked to the backyard as he spoke, and Tang Tong followed closely.

With Chen Dingxian's guidance, I came to the study of Chen Dehuai, the Marquis of Qingyuan, very smoothly. Qingyuan Hou Chen Dehuai drank too much wine and was drinking tea to sober up. Chen Ding went in first to inform him, so he came to ask Tang Tong to go in, and he also went in and stood next to him.

Tang Tong bowed with a big salute, "The protégé has seen Master Hou!".

Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai glanced at Tang Tong and asked impatiently, "Do you have something?"

Tang Tong had no choice but to ask euphemistically: "If the protégé asked Steward Chen to carry it, does Master Hou know?".

Chen Dehuai looked at Tang Tong suspiciously, not knowing what it meant. said very directly: "Isn't it just the exam fee of 5,000 taels of silver!" What else do you have to say?", she said, her eyes staring straight at him, as if she were about to be angry.

Tang Tong's heart was cold when he heard this, and Chen Qinjin's appetite was too big. I had to make sure again, so I asked again: "May I ask Master Hou!" Steward Chen didn't say anything other than five thousand taels of silver?".

Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai became even more impatient when he heard this, and asked sharply; "Can't this marquis still lie to you!".

Tang Tong hurriedly waved his hand, "I just didn't hear it clearly just now, I just asked it again.", Tang informed that he couldn't pursue it, firstly, there was no evidence, secondly, it would damage his image, and then there would be other requirements that would be greatly discounted, for fear that you would come to entangle and no longer do things for you.

At this time, Chen Dehuai, the Marquis of Qingyuan, probably knew Tang Tong's intention, and said seriously, "Do you want to stay in the capital, you can't play with the fish and dragons in the capital, and I won't help you, or it's more suitable for you to go back to Xuanfu!".

The words have been said and can only end here, Tang Tong had no choice but to put away his thoughts and cater to him: "I listen to Master Hou!".

Qingyuan Marquis Chen Dehuai waved his hand, Tang Tong understood and saluted, "The protégé is leaving!", Tang Tong withdrew. It didn't take long for Chen Dingxian to say goodbye, and caught up with Tang Tong to comfort him, "My grandfather has this temperament, you can think of other ways!".

Tang Tong sighed, very helpless, "I only know the Marquis of Qingyuan, then there is another way to think!", Chen Ding thought about it first, and was a little worried that Tang Tong would miss the appointment, so he hurriedly asked: "Sang Rixuan, are you still going?".

The bitterness in Tang Tong's heart would not be revealed lightly, and he changed his sorrow to a smile and asked, "Go!" Why don't you go if you want to leave?"..

Chen Dingxian didn't know how happy he was when he heard it, and then smiled: "Yes! I'll send you then!", full of sentimentality, he couldn't help but step forward and hug Tang Tong.

Tang Tong, who was in a very bad mood, didn't bother to say goodbye to Yang Weibiao and others, and arched his hand to Chen Dingxian and said that he wanted to leave, and went straight out of the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion. It was already Shen Shi, Tang Tong and He Wang quickly whipped up the dust and left.
