"You just said that the third place in the exam is Yang Shaojing's second son, named Yang Tianmo, he is Yang Tianmo?"

The middle-aged man looked at Yang Tianmo and asked Qi Yue, the "captain of the guard" beside him.

Qi Yue bowed down and replied "yes", and reminded in a low voice: "Weichen heard that Lord Yang's second son...... has already been married. ”

Qi Yue knew what the purpose of the master's departure from the palace was, and he had some friendship with Yang Shaojing, but he could only help here.

"I know that the girl who sat next to him just now should be his fiancée, alas, I am one step too late, and when Yang Shaojing returns to Ningdu this year, I have to talk about him well, I have such a son, and I won't say it sooner."

Geng Xingshuang saw that the two middle-aged men were looking at them and muttering something in a low voice, how wrong they looked in those eyes, as if they were playing with some bad idea.

Moreover, she felt that the middle-aged man in the chestnut robe had an extraordinary temperament, and she couldn't tell what the specific temperament was, but the attitude of the people had always been very kind and took the initiative to talk, so she gradually ignored it.

Now it seems that these two men are indeed a little eccentric.

"It's fine." Yang Tianmo whispered a word of reassurance, and the group walked to the other side of the balcony.

and two middle-aged men each occupy one end of the balcony.

"Hey, that's Jiang Xingwen and Li Xu!"

As soon as Geng Shuhuai went upstairs, he saw a familiar figure crowded in the crowd, "Whether they passed the exam or not, I just forgot to look." ”

Geng Shuhuai said, he had already shouted the names of several people loudly, and several people seemed to hear it, glanced at them, and waved their hands.

"Master, Jiang Xingwen is good, he is Jiang Liao's eldest son, he took the eighteenth place in the exam this time, and he can be literary and martial ......"

Before Qi Yue's words fell, he saw his master, the current emperor, Emperor Sheng Ning, shook his head again, "Qiu Yu only took the eighteenth place in the exam, if it is Chun Yue, wouldn't it be after fifty or sixty." ”

"After fifty or sixty, that is also the second rank of Jinshi." Qi Yue counted in his heart, this was already the sixth person in front of him who shook his head and denied.

"And it's not very good, our family Yu'er likes to look good."

I think it's the emperor, you like good-looking, right?

Qi Yue complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

"What about Lord Li's eldest son, Li Xu is the eighth in the exam, his ranking is good, his appearance is also good, and he is gentle and elegant."

Forgive Qi Yue as a military general, there is really not much ink in his stomach, and he can't think of any good adjectives to praise people.

"No, no, no, it's white and thin, it looks like he has no strength at all, and he can't carry his hands on his shoulders, Yu'er must not like it."

Qi Yue sighed deeply in his heart, and he summed up the criteria for the emperor to choose a son-in-law in his heart, to have both civil and military skills, to have good character, to have a prominent family background, to have both parents and father and mother's love, to brothers, friends and brothers, and these requirements are not to be achieved, but to reach the height of the emperor's heart.

For example, he thinks that Qiu Yu is on the list, and he can be regarded as both civil and military, but in the emperor's opinion, on the Qiu Yu list, the top ten can only be regarded as literary talents, and in terms of martial arts, the standards are even more demanding.

Qi Yue thought that when Yang Tianmo and his party went downstairs just now, he told the emperor that Yang Shaojing's second son's martial arts might be above him, and then thought of the autumn list they saw in advance, and the emperor said, "This can be regarded as being able to be literate and martial!" ”

Qi Yue felt that the day when the sixth princess would marry was far away.

However, he was also a little curious, the emperor had taken a fancy to Yang Tianmo, but he never had the idea of snatching someone over to be his son-in-law, which was a bit different from his master's style.

If the emperor really takes a fancy to it, as long as his mind moves, he doesn't need to grab it himself, and someone will respectfully offer it.

It's just that Qi Yue didn't dare to ask.

"Jiang Xingwen, why haven't they come up yet!" Geng Shuhuai was a little impatient, at this time there were more and more people in the tea shop, and many people moved from the entrance of the government to the nearby restaurant and tea shop.

The eyes of Geng Xingshuang and the others had already lost their eyes on Geng Wen and Geng Yan, and Geng Shuhuai said a little boredly: "Yang Liu, now that the good news is about to arrive at your house, don't you go back?" ”

"There are two brothers and two sisters-in-law at home, so I don't need to go back."

It's nothing to do when you go back, the messenger who announces the good news only needs to reward some money, and now when I go back, in addition to hearing those praise and compliments that seem to be true or false, maybe there are some cynicisms, Yang Tianmo has no intention of joining in the fun.

Geng Shuhuai sighed, feeling that at this point, their family and the Yang family are almost the same, and I don't know if all the big families are like this.

"Sixth sister, second brother, do you think that's my father? Is he holding a person? ”

Geng Xingchen suddenly exclaimed, probably too shocked, her voice was very loud, attracting the attention of other people standing on the balcony, and now there were not only them and the two middle-aged men on the balcony, but also many people came one after another, everyone was crowded here, watching the scenes of snatching people play out below.

Looking in the direction of Geng Xingchen's finger, Geng Xingshuang recognized at a glance that Geng Yan was in the crowd and tightly held another person in his arms.

He is tall and strong, and the person who is restrained by him is half a head shorter than him, and the person is also thin and thin, and his face is facing the opposite direction of the tea shop, Geng Xingshuang and the others can't see it, but just looking at the figure, they know that he is a weak scholar, and he is restrained by Geng Yan, although he is constantly struggling, but for Geng Yan, the struggle is almost like tickling, and it is useless at all.

"Second brother, go and see, who is the person who the third uncle snatched? What is the number one in the exam? What does it look like? ”

Geng Xingshuang saw that Geng Xingchen was anxious and couldn't wait to run down by himself, so he hurriedly said to Geng Shuhuai.

Geng Shuhuai answered, and was about to go down, when he heard Yang Tianmo say: "Li Xu is wearing a Songjiang-colored robe today, and the style is the same as the one on that person. ”

"Li Xu? Can't you? Isn't he followed by Li Shun and Li Sui? ”

Geng Shuhuai felt that it couldn't be Li Xu, although Li Xu himself was weak and delicate, but Li Shun and Li Sui, the two little guys, Li Saijiu was specially placed by his son's side, so he could be both a scholar and a guard.

"Didn't he bring them with him today? No, on this occasion, he just ran by himself, and didn't bring anyone with him, wouldn't he wait for someone to come and grab it...... Hey...... Isn't that Li Shun? ”

Before Geng Shuhuai's words fell, he saw that the person he had just mentioned was being held and pushed by his own father, Li Shun was anxious to go to his master, but was stopped by Geng Wen and the people of the uncle's house, and he couldn't take a step.

After seeing Li Shun, and then looking around Geng Yan, he saw Li Xu's other servant, "Uncle Liang is really the helper that the third uncle found over." ”

Geng Xingshuang felt that her third uncle was quite powerful, and she could invite Uncle Liang.

At this time, Liang Ben used only one hand to firmly imprison Li Sui.

"I'll go help Li Xu now, the third uncle hit him by mistake and grabbed his own people."

After all, Li Xu is a friend they have made in Licai Academy in the past few months, and the relationship is very good, it is the kind of relationship that can still get together from time to time even if they leave the academy.

"Second brother, wait!" Geng Xingshuang hurriedly shouted to Geng Shuhuai, who was about to run downstairs, Geng Shuhuai paused, "What's wrong?" ”

"That...... Li Gongzi, has he ever been married? ”

"I don't know!"

"As far as I know, not yet!"

Geng Shuhuai and Yang Tingmo replied at the same time, and Geng Xingshuang immediately looked at Yang Tingmo, "Really not married?" There is no such thing as a family that the two families are interested in, but they haven't had time to say goodbye? ”

Yang Tianmo shook his head, "Master Li wants to wait for Li Xuzhong to be a senior before kissing him." ”

Geng Xingshuang nodded and looked at Geng Xingchen, "Seventh sister, you have also met Li Gongzi, what do you think?" ”

"Ah...... This one...... Sixth sister, do you mean...... What do you mean......" Geng Xingchen was originally very anxious, but when Geng Xingshuang said this, she didn't seem to be so anxious, but her face turned red.
