The matchmaker knew that the identities of these people were unusual and wanted to make friends with them, so she made a bloody investment and invited them to Juxing Tower.

This time, she was a favor, and she always felt that the identities of these people were not as simple as they said, and they seemed to have come for a purpose.

She thought of the person in her backyard, although she didn't know who it was, but since those people paid a lot of money to let her do these things, she knew that this person would not be simple, and maybe it would make her and Xianggong fall into a catastrophe, so she must be more careful.

Juxinglou should be the most prosperous place in the whole county, I heard that it was not originally called this name, but after the imperial examination was prevalent, the name of the imitation capital city Kuixinglou was changed, and it also became a gathering place for famous literati and rioters nearby.

When they entered, they also heard people in the house discussing the merits of the prince of the Wu Dynasty, especially the holding of the imperial examination, many people felt that even if they participated in the imperial examination, they could not enter the court as an official, after all, if they really wanted to be an official, they still had to fight for their family background, so they were not optimistic about the imperial examination.

But these watchers watched the poor students enter the court as officials, and they were jealous and helpless, so many people said that they would participate next time, and they would definitely be better than these students this time.

Jiang Shan and You Qianqian secretly glanced at Li Yunxing, it seems that this place is indeed remote, after all, it has been a long time since the imperial examination, but the discussion has only begun here, which shows the lag of the news.

You Qianqian secretly pulled down Li Yunxing's sleeve, she had also heard that the imperial examination system was before, so she admired him so much, and now when she heard others say this, she suddenly felt a sense of honor.

"It seems that you are also very prestigious in this county, and everyone likes you very much."

Li Yunxing looked at these people who were talking loudly in the Star Tower, and there was some disdain in his eyes, these are just playing prestige in a small county town, if they are really capable and courageous, they should have participated in this imperial examination a long time ago, looking ahead and looking backwards, they will always be worthy of living behind others.

The table booked by the matchmaker was on the second floor, and she also heard the discussion of the people below, but a woman like him, who runs around for life every day, always feels that the major affairs of the court are far away from her, and when she hears the discussion downstairs, she can't help but echo two sentences.

"A few people who have traveled from south to north should have seen a lot, have you ever seen the true face of this legendary prince? In the past few days, I have always heard about the deeds of the prince, and even the guests who came to my gambling house could not help but talk about him, and I heard that he was not yet the age of the weak crown, and he had such prestige, and I was very interested in him. ”

Seeing this, Jiang Shan coughed heavily, You Qianqian tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth, and it was very hard to hold back her smile, but Li Yunxing was the most calm among them.

"When I went to the capital, I also heard about the deeds of this prince, but I can't wait for a merchant in the market, where is the honor to meet the prince Zhenrong."

The matchmaker nodded, it is true, such a popular figure as the prince is something that ordinary people like them can see when they say it, and besides, this is just a small episode in it, and she quickly passed the topic.

"A few don't worry, although there are anti-thieves in Jingzhou, but the court has sent troops to stop it, a few days ago, there was a group of soldiers on the nearby official road, counting the time, they should exterminate all those anti-thieves, and it won't be long before a few guests can go to Jingzhou to do business."

Li Yunxing's smile deepened.

"Are these things? If the court comes forward, we will be relieved. ”

The matchmaker also laughed, the two of them were like smiling tigers, talking to each other, Li Yunxing shook out a lot of confidence to the matchmaker in a timely manner, so that her suspicion of these people weakened, and at the end of the meal, she had completely believed that several people were just rice merchants.

After sending a few people away, the matchmaker happily returned to the gambling house, she instructed her subordinates to be sure to watch the people in the backyard, if this person is lost, they will all have to save their lives, and the subordinates will take the order, the matchmaker sighed, and when she turned her head, she saw her husband trembling and walking out, and she immediately greeted her.

"Xianggong, your body has just improved, you should have a good rest in the house now, don't worry, leave the matter of the gambling house to me, and you can recuperate with peace of mind."

The matchmaker's father-in-law is a very thin scholar, named Xu Qing, who was originally a private school teacher, teaching children to enlightenment, and later met the matchmaker, and the two fell in love with each other.

He is a scholar and always wants to be a sage and gentleman, so he does not approve of the matchmaker running a gambling house, but he also knows that the matchmaker is all for him now, and he has burdened this woman, so he has no confidence to say anything.

It's okay to open a gambling house, but he just heard the conversation between the matchmaker and his subordinates, and he was anxious, he never wanted the matchmaker to get involved in something else and harm her life.

"Matchmaker, I'm not a fool, tell me honestly, are you hiding something from me? Those medicines are not cheap, I know that the gambling house business can't make up this money to buy medicine, and what did you just tell them? Who's locked up in the backyard? ”

The matchmaker also intends to take the gambling house out and be a lady in the main house with peace of mind, who knows that when the husband is sick, she can only run the gambling house business again.

But Xianggong became more and more ill, and the little money earned by the gambling house was not enough at all, so she thought of making more money, just to make more money, including promising those people to help them do things in the future, but she couldn't say these words to Xianggong, because Xianggong would never agree.

"You heard it wrong, there is nothing in the backyard, now the prince is in charge of the country, and the imperial examination is opened, the entire Wu Dynasty is thriving, and even the business of our gambling house is much better, so I have the money to buy medicine for you, today I also heard that those students who have passed the imperial examination have really entered the court as officials, and Xianggong is still taking care of his body as soon as possible, if he can participate in the next imperial examination, with Xianggong's talent, he will definitely be able to be the champion in high school, and then I will no longer run a gambling house, and we will have a good life."

This is the matchmaker's first thought after hearing those people discuss in the Juxing Building today, she knows that her husband is full of talent, if it is not for the family affairs, she will definitely not be just an ordinary private school gentleman, then the imperial examination is simply tailor-made for them, naturally excited.

Xu Qing coughed while holding his chest, he was moved by the matchmaker's words, and seemed to see a broad avenue paved in front of him, his inner emotions were surging, and he couldn't help coughing twice, he finally suppressed the cough, but he felt sour.

The imperial examination is very good, even he has heard about it, but he is so seriously ill that he doesn't know if he can live, so how can he enter the court as an official?

He shook his head, ignoring those fantasies, and stared at the woman in front of him.
