Cheng Yanjin's words showed the attitude of the Cheng family in the future.

Knowing from the emperor that he was going to take the position, Bai Song knew that it was difficult for him to break away from the court.

Looking at the entire court, Cheng Yanjin became the first support he could rely on.

In order to gain a foothold in the court, such support is indispensable.

Yu Lao told the old man to return to his hometown, and the JAC Group that he expected Bai Song to take over did not become Bai Song's wings.

It takes time for classmates to grow.

Bai Song found that he actually had nothing.

Cheng Biting Jin's unabashedness gave Bai Song some confidence.

But how much status does Cheng Yanjin have in Datang in Li Shimin's heart?

Bai Song does not know.

It is undeniable that Cheng Yanjin is a hero of the Tang Dynasty and a close minister of the emperor, but is he a major minister?

Bai Song had the answer in his heart, and he should understand it from the area under the jurisdiction of the other party now.

Cheng Yanjin's energy in the capital is not as big as Yu Lao and Li Jingda, and it can't be compared with the eldest grandson's family.

But only Cheng Yanjin can say what he just said so unabashedly.

Bai Song is excited, this is the benefit of white picking.

Bai Song immediately expressed his gratitude and told Cheng Yanjin that he would not disappoint the other party.

Cheng Biting Jin doesn't like red tape, and scholars definitely don't fall into Cheng Biting Jin's eyes.

But Bai Song is different, this person is half elegant and half tough, and his temperament is between the pedantry of a scholar and the recklessness of a martial artist, which is appropriate.

Cheng Yanjin had never seen this kind of person, but the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and after seeing Bai Song, he nodded again and again, and suddenly said that he wanted to give the little girl in the family to Bai Song as a concubine.

But the little girl of the Cheng family couldn't say anything, she didn't look like Bai Song's aesthetics, so she quickly refused as a concubine.

When Cheng Yanjin heard this, he was a little disappointed and sighed: "Yes, I forgot your identity, it's a pity to ......"

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Yanjin suddenly remembered something: "No, Li Jing said that he received a secret decree from the emperor and wanted to promise you his family's comfort." Why can the daughter of his Li family be able to do it, but not my Cheng family? I have to go to the emperor's theory. ”

When Bai Song heard this, the sweat came down.

This can't let him go, if the emperor really agrees, it will be a real mouse......

"Ahem...... Cough...... Old general, don't take it seriously, I already have a wife and concubine at home, and now I am arguing at home day and night, and I can't cope with three or two of them, where can I accommodate more? ”

"Manly husband, how many women can't hold it down?"

"How about having a princess on top?" Bai Song pretended to be bitter and said helplessly.

Fortunately, General Cheng was convinced, and Bai Song breathed a sigh of relief.

……

Leaving from Cheng Yanjin, Bai Song returned to the mansion.

Thinking about the promise he made to Shu Wang, he felt that it was time to make up for his homework.

During the time he studied in the academy, Bai Song made a lot of progress.

What the White Song lacked in literature was not the accumulation of poetry, but the understanding of the imperial examination questions.

I still remember that during the township exam, only one question could be understood in a paper.

Subsequent exams must avoid similar situations.

Only by understanding the questions can you answer them.

If you want to make up for this problem, the easiest and most direct way is to take a mock exam and read all the questions of the imperial examination in recent years.

Try to answer the questions yourself, as long as you do enough questions, all the questions can be solved easily.

In addition, the imperial examination is not a poetry test, the examination focuses on strategy, it is a direct output of opinions, and it is necessary to ensure that you can express your inner thoughts in a neat classical Chinese format, which is another major defect of the Bai Song Dynasty.

The water conservancy project written in the last exam, Bai Song's idea was very good, but the words and sentences did not meet the requirements of the imperial examination, and it was too vernacular.

Even if you have an excellent point of view, it is difficult to get a high score.

In order to make changes, in addition to practicing the test questions, Bai Song plans to pay attention to the following details of language expression in his daily life.

Life is on the right track, and it is gradually becoming dull.

Bai Song is trying to become more like an ancient, integrating into the life and context of the ancients.

Therefore, Bai Song restrained his previous frivolity, became more regular, and spoke more exquisitely.

Several women in the house don't know why, and they don't know why Bai Song has changed like now.

The princess became more and more worried, thinking about all kinds of possibilities, and always felt that her husband's change might be related to the illegitimate child outside.

Bai Song would go out every day, cook himself, and bring things.

At first, only the princess noticed, but after two days, everyone in the family noticed.

No one asked, but there was a faint uneasiness.

Early in the morning of the third day, Xiang'er couldn't help but ask, wanting to know who Xianggong prepared for food every day.

Bai Song thought about it, but he didn't hide it, and told Xiang'er everything in the Li Mansion and the agreement between himself and the emperor.

Xiang'er knew Shu Wang, knew the experience between Xianggong and Shu Wang, and learned that Shu Wang had children before marriage, and her heart was mixed.

Bai Song told Xiang'er to keep it secret, and Xiang'er also knew that she had to keep it secret, but the child was about to be born, and it was the blood of the Bai family, so if she was out, what if someone found out?

Such worries have long existed in Bai Song's heart, but Bai Song has no way to solve it, and Shu Wang's determination made him dare not mention this matter again, telling Xiang'er that he can only take one step at a time.

On the third day, Bai Song went to deliver food as usual.

This day was also the day Li Jing returned to the front line, and with Li Jing was Cheng Yanjin.

When Bai Song arrived at the Li Mansion, Li Jing had already left Chang'an City.

Bai Song didn't care, all he wanted to see was his own woman.

When he arrived at Shu Wang's room, Bai Song instantly felt that the atmosphere was wrong.

Shu Wang and her maid sat at the table in a daze, and there was a porcelain bowl on the table, and there was some milky white soup in the bowl.

Bai Song shouted: "Shu Wang, what's wrong with you?" Why is there no reflection at all? ”

Shu Wang seemed to have just come back from his trance, looked up at Bai Song, and did not speak.

Bai Song walked over, looked at the things on the table, and then at Shu Wang, and suddenly realized something.

Bai Song tasted the thick soup and frowned.

A strong smell of turtle plates rushed straight to my head.

This is a tonic soup made from turtle shells, but turtle shells are forbidden for pregnant women and are highly likely to cause miscarriages.

Bai Song's brain buzzed, he pressed Shu Wang's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "You drank?" ”

A hint of fear flashed in Shu Wang's eyes, and he nodded blankly.

"Didn't you tell you not to eat what other people give?" Bai Song was very annoyed, and his tone was very bad.

After a sound, Shu Wang's tears fell.

"Grandpa prepared it for me before leaving...... I didn't expect ...... I didn't expect it to be like this......"

Shu Wang's tears dripped down.

"Li Jing!" Bai Song gritted his teeth, hatred swelled up, and he turned around and was about to go out.

"It's out of town......"

Bai Song stopped, then calmed down and asked in a low voice, "How much did you drink?" ”
