Of course, Qin Ke didn't think that he had even the slightest ability to compete with the tiger and leopard rider, it was just an exaggerated fantasy.

But during the interval between his memorizing maps in the past few days, every time he thought of that chic and uninhibited nobleman, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry in his heart, and seemed to feel a little regretful.

But think about it from another angle, although he has been controlled by his family, it is better than Qin Ke, like a flying floc in the wind, or duckweed in the water, if he is not careful, it will be a catastrophe, where does he have any energy to take care of others.

Thinking of this, his heart to reject Cai Yan became more and more firm, although he knew that such a sudden change of hexagram might cause Cai Yan's dissatisfaction, but it seemed that he could only deal with it like this.

Cai Zhuguo's mansion is located in the north of Ding'an City, where there is a prosperous and quiet Chengtianmen Street that coexists incredibly, as for why it is prosperous, because this street is the closest to the Tang King's Palace, it is adjacent to the palace wall, and there is a palace gate to open towards this street, this street is also named because of this palace gate.

According to the ancestral system of the Tang Dynasty, all national ceremonies, military expeditions, triumphs, greeting VIPs, announcing amnesty, celebrating festivals, etc., must be held in this street.

Therefore, in the center of the street is actually a square, a hundred paces wide, and it is more than enough for a whole group to pass side by side, or fourteen horses lined up.

And many of the mansions here are personally ordered by the lord of the Tang State to give to his subordinates, naturally, there is such a sentence in the Ding'an City of the Tang Kingdom: Although the worship will enter the prime minister, it is better to inherit a mansion.

It is enough to show how noble and rare a mansion on Chengtianmen Street is, and only high-ranking officials and important ministers who have made great contributions to the country, or imperial relatives who have a close relationship with the Li family, are eligible to be given a mansion here.

Cai Zhuguo is a respectful name, and his real name is Cai Yong.

In the Tang Kingdom, there are three honors of the Pillar Country, the Shangzhu State and the Great Pillar State, the Pillar Country is from the second grade, and the Shangzhu State is the second grade, although it sounds like it is one level away from the top first-grade Great Pillar Country, but in fact, the Great Pillar National Order below the lord has never been given to anyone, so many years, even the entire Tang Dynasty is about to forget this title.

The Tang Kingdom, the upper pillar country of the second grade, has had it, but it has only been given three times since the establishment of the Tang Kingdom, so Cai Yong, who is from the second grade of the pillar country, can be said to be proud of the others in the Tang Kingdom, and almost no one can match it.

And Cai Yong's position is also from the second rank of Shang Shuling Zuo servant, and concurrently serves as the general of the town of Tang from the second grade, which has raised his noble status to the top.

Li Qiuhuang did not set up a Shangshu order, and now he has no heirs, let alone the prince or the prince, if Cai Yong goes up, he will either make up for the lack of the Shangshu order, or he will be the master of the country!

"Under one person, above ten thousand", Cai Yong is only one step away.

Qin Ke looked at the high courtyard wall, and fell into contemplation for a while, in the past two days, he had read a lot of Tang classics in the cellar, coupled with Gao Yishui's interpretation from the side, he had gradually understood some information about the Tang Kingdom, but when he read the book before, he only thought that Cai Zhuguo was a big official, but he never expected that this "big" would be so big.

And Cai Yan has such a father, and it is not surprising that the family education is strict.

But how should I go in to meet him? Thinking of this, he crossed the two mighty and majestic stone lions, climbed the steps and approached the vermilion gate, stretched out his hand, held the copper rings that the two copper Xuanwu heads had bitten, and knocked lightly on the door.

The door slowly opened a corner, and an old man's face full of wind and frost came out, he coughed twice, looked at Qin Ke a little strangely, and said, "This ......"

He looked at the cotton shirt on Qin Ke's body, and a little disdain flashed in his eyes, but his cultivation still made him ask calmly: "This son, who are you looking for?"

Of course, Qin Ke could see the old man's disdain for him, but Qin Ke was used to this kind of look, the nobles in the world have always treated the people like this, even their servants have done the same, when they were in Daoxiang Village, those yamen servants were about to rush their nostrils to the sky.

So Qin Ke was quite experienced in this, nodded and smiled: "I'll look for Cai Yan." ”

"Cai Yan?" the old man was stunned, then shook his head and was about to close the door, "There is no such person in the house." ”

"What?" Qin Ke subconsciously stretched out a hand to block the door, preventing the old man from closing it, "How could it be?"

As a cultivator, Qin Ke's strength was already greater than that of ordinary people, but Qin Ke could feel that the power of closing the door was not small, he was slightly taken aback, and he could probably be sure that the white-haired old man in front of him was actually a cultivator, such a powerful family was really extraordinary, and even an old servant was not simple.

The old man frowned hard, feeling that Qin Ke's hand was as immobile as Mount Tai, and he immediately confirmed Qin Ke's identity as a cultivator. It's just that he didn't show his timidity, but looked at Qin Ke coldly and said: "Let go, don't think that you can mess around with a little cultivation, this is Cai Zhuguo's mansion, if you continue to be rude, I will let people send you to the yamen for punishment." ”

Qin Ke saw his anger, carefully let go of his hand, and said softly, "I'm sorry." It's me who is in a hurry. But he still didn't give up, "Is there really no such person as Cai Yan in the mansion?" He should be Cai Zhuguo's son, and he also has an elder brother named ...... Cai Xiang, otherwise you will let me meet Cai Xiang?"

The old man said indifferently: "Cai Xiang is indeed the eldest son of the master, but who do you think you are? ”

With that, he slammed the door shut, and there was a muffled sound from the tall vermilion gate, and then the old man had already fastened the bolt behind the door.

Qin Ke stood in place in a daze: "Imperial Doctor?"

He inquired about Cai Yong's official position, but he didn't care about Cai Xiang, but he didn't expect that the man in his thirties was also a big official from the third grade, this Cai Zhuguo Mansion is really a double masterpiece...... Or, Sanjie?

He thought of the second brother who joined the army that Cai Yan said, since there are two Zhuyu in front, this one should not be a mallet.

However, Qin Ke shook his head helplessly and said to himself: "Then Cai Yan...... Who are you?"

The old man said that there was no such person as Cai Yan, but they clearly traveled together that night...... There are only two possibilities, the first is that he is crazy, and he was actually alone that night.

But Qin Ke thought that he was normal, and he didn't show any signs of stupidity, such as smirking everywhere with a wooden stick, or stabbing dog feces on the ground with a wooden stick, so this is unlikely.

The second is naturally that Cai Yan deceived him, and he is not called Cai Yan at all!

As for whether he is called Cai Er, Cai San, or spinach cabbage, it is even more unknown.

Thinking of this, Qin Ke had a little headache: "What kind of business is this?" He took a few turns in place, and there were occasional pedestrians passing by on the empty street, looking at him scurrying in front of Cai Zhuguo's mansion, he looked contemptuous: This kid looks poor and sour, and he is still walking around at the door of Cai Zhuguo's mansion, could it be that he wants to follow Cai Zhuguo's path to get a petty official?

Cai Yong, as Shang Shuling's left servant, Shang Shuling's position is vacant, and the left servant is equivalent to half of the prime minister, if it is the back door, there is no more golden back door in the court.

It's just that in everyone's eyes, Qin Ke is just a poor sour boy who thinks he is talented, and it is impossible to even let Cai Yong lower his head and take a look, he is standing here, and he really seems to be inadequate.

Qin Ke stood for a while, feeling those unkind eyes, and thought with a wry smile that this was really a lot of eyes and ears in front of the powerful people, and now he couldn't see Cai Yan, as if there was no other way than to leave.

But he looked at the sun again, and saw that it was not yet noon, perhaps...... Should he have waited any longer?

Cai Yan, where the hell are you?
