Chapter 68 068
Emperor Xuande attached great importance to the imperial examination. After ascending the throne, there were hundreds of Jinshi every time the spring examination was adopted. The literati from all over the country became very angry and he worked hard to study hard to achieve success in the golden list. For the juren, the spring examination was the last dragon gate, and there was no room for mistakes. Anyone with some money in his family would go to Beijing several months or even one year in advance, and then while studying in the capital to prepare for the exam, he made friends with Beijing officials in advance to prepare for his future official career.
Liang Shao was a juren from Jizhou. He ranked among the best in the autumn exam. His good exam was enough to prove his knowledge and talent. Liang Shao was handsome and elegant, and he was also a rare handsome man. His talent was not all his relatives and grandmothers liked him, let alone his family. When he learned that Liang Shao had rented a house outside, the grandmother immediately sent someone to move Liang Shao's luggage into the Duke's Mansion and asked his nephew to prepare for the exam at the Duke's Mansion.
Liang Shao declined repeatedly, and until Guo Boyan spoke to him, Liang Shao couldn't refuse his affection and gave a big gift to the two elders and agreed.
After all, he is a junior. Liang Shao's father came over and Guo Boyan would probably accompany him to drink. If it were Liang Shao, Guo Boyan arranged for his eldest son Guo Xiao to accompany him. He returned to Linyun Hall. Lin was holding Mao Ge'er, and Song Jianing sat next to his mother, waiting for him to have dinner together. Seeing his stepfather stepping into the door with a happy face, Song Jianing felt nervous.
"It seems that the prince likes cousin very much." Lin signaled the maids to serve the meal with his eyes, and then quipped with a smile.
Guo Boyan took over the fat son who reached out to him, sat aside and said, "Wen and respectful and humble, and have good conversations, you will have some luck in the future." This young man is talented and cunning, and is a material for being an official. Guo Boyan is a military general and does not like the civil servants very much, but Liang Shao is the family of the Grand Lady. Guo Boyan respects his mother. As long as Liang Shao can make the Grand Lady happy, he doesn't mind letting Liang Shao take advantage of the Duke's Mansion.
The grandmother gave birth to children for the Guo family and raised their brothers to become a talent. She hasn't returned to Jizhou for so many years. Guo Boyan felt sorry for her mother.
Lin had seen Liang Shao in the daytime, and he was indeed talented and beautiful. Now when Guo Boyan praised Liang Shao like this, Lin glanced at Xiuxiu's daughter sitting next to her and couldn't help but think about it. Next year, her daughter will be fourteen, and Lin has long started to secretly find a suitable son-in-law candidate. The children of famous families may not be able to look for their daughters in their hearts, and Lin did not want their daughter to marry her. It is best to find a family background that is ordinary and capable.
Liang Shao, it looks pretty good.
But after all, when I first met, Lin did not show that he had such an intention. Please pay attention.
Song Jianing didn't know what his mother was thinking. After seeing the grandmother and stepfather valued Liang Shao, Song Jianing was anxious that the elders were blinded by Liang Shao's hypocritical face and became confused. After having supper absent-mindedly, Song Jianing returned to his room and leaned against the bedside and became stunned.
Strangely, given the current closeness of Liang Shao, why did Liang Shao use her to please Guo Xiao in his previous life?
It’s not that Song Jianing was self-righteous, but Liang Shao was so nice to her that year. She felt a little uncomfortable, and Liang Shao was even more nervous than her. Every holiday, Liang Shao would accompany her to go out for a trip, and his love was as sweet as a foul. Even his second uncle and aunt came to the county government to fight for the autumn wind. Liang Shao knew that she didn’t like them, so he gave it away casually, which really helped her breath.
Even if there is no true love, Liang Shao still likes her, a beautiful concubine. If it is not necessary, Song Jianing would not believe Liang Shao would be willing to give her away.
Has the relationship between Liang Shao and the Grandmaster broken down?
In her previous life, Song Jianing was filled with hatred and resentment. She had no intention of guessing these human feelings and only hated Liang Shao for no reason. Now the suffering of her previous life has faded. Apart from meeting Liang Shao again with the grandmother, she was indignant for a while. Song Jianing was no longer so impulsive at this moment. The only idea was to expose Liang Shao's hypocritical face and make him ruined. Because Liang Shao first gave her out as a toy, she became the forbidden body raised by Guo Xiao in the village. Guo Xiao met her by chance, and the two had no feelings for each other. Guo Xiao wanted her to be Guo Xiao lustful, and Liang Shao gave her a bowl of lax medicine, but she was ruthless!
Song Jianing was angry for a while before he knew it. After anger, he suddenly had an idea in his mind. Is it possible that when Liang Shao entered Beijing in his previous life, he accidentally showed his foot and made people see his hypocriticality, so the Duke's Mansion was cold to him? So he had to abandon the open and secret and bribe Guo Xiao with beautiful colors?
Song Jianing's eyes brightened. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was right. Madam, who is his stepfather? He is wise and wise. How could he be fooled by a young man who is like their eldest son and grandson?
Song Jianing suddenly relaxed. As expected, she could watch a good show where the hypocrite was discovered without doing anything.
But Song Jianing did not dare to guarantee that everything was as he had guessed, so he called Liu'er, who was the most informed, and whispered: "If you hear anything related to the Liang family's Biao, remember to tell me."
Liu'er looked at the master, panicked, and hesitated, "Why do girls care about him?" Not to mention that she had a crush on the cousin, then helping to find out the news is equivalent to helping the fourth girl get a link with the cousin of the Liang family. Once something goes wrong, she will be done.
Her eyes flashed, Song Jianing understood it and said with a funny look: "Where do you want to go? I just don't like him and want to know what he did in the Duke's Mansion." In order to avoid Liu'er thinking too much, Song Jianing told the truth directly.
Liu'er became even more confused and said strangely: "Honor Chou offended the girl?"
Song Jianing nodded and snorted: "You don't need to know why you offend me. Anyway, I'll get angry when I see him."
Liu'er didn't understand what happened between the fourth girl and the cousin, but looking at the fourth girl's clear and apricot eyes full of disgust, Liu'er was at least sure that her own girl had no intention of the cousin. As long as it was not involved in affair with a man and a woman, she would not have to worry and whispered: "Don't worry, girl, wait for my news!"
Song Jianing reminded her again not to let people see it, and then rewarded Liu'er with one tael of silver.
Liu'er went to do things conscientiously, but in the next month, as far as Liu'er knew, Liang Shao had been living in his guest room and studying hard, and was very diligent. The lady felt sorry for him and asked Liang Shao to go to Changxinyuan for a few times. Liang Shao was so steady and studious, Liu'er in turn advised Song Jianing: "Girl, do you have any misunderstandings with Mr. Chou? Maybe Mr. Chou just offended you unintentionally..."
Song Jianing was full of bitterness, but he couldn't come out.
She underestimated Liang Shao, she was indeed a capable person!
Liang Shao was so hiding so well, Song Jianing couldn't help but doubt his previous speculations. Perhaps Liang Shao had always performed well in the Duke's Mansion, but his stepfather was upright and did not move around in the officialdom for Liang Shao. Liang Shao was eager to succeed, so he became a county magistrate for two years and wanted to take a shortcut from Guo Xiao?
It seems that this explanation is understandable.
Song Jianing was immediately worried. He really didn't want to see the person he hated staying in the Duke's Mansion, especially the other party was a real villain.

After the Zhongyuan period, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. The lady was happy to see her mother's family. In order to make the old man happier, Guo Boyan invited the most famous opera troupe in the capital to come to her home to sing opera. The stage was placed in the water pavilion in the garden, so that the family could not only enjoy the moon on the lake, but also watch operas and listen to music, which was the best of both worlds.
After having dinner at Changxinyuan in the evening, everyone moved to the back garden.
Song Jianing was originally with his mother. As he walked, Yun Fang pulled his arm and walked backwards. Through Guo Boyan and his two uncles, Song Jianing saw Guo Xiao and Liang Shao walking side by side at a glance. One was cold and sharp, and the other had a smile on his face. On the surface, he was a pair of good-looking young men, but Song Jianing saw the shadow of "embarrassing" in this moment!
Liang Shao didn't come, and Song Jianing was only afraid of Guo Xiao, the wolf. Now he was in a mess. Song Jianing really wanted to hide away, so he grabbed Yun Fang, who was still trying to walk back, turned his head and asked her in a low voice: "What are the third sisters doing?"
Yun Fang secretly glanced at Liang Shao and saw that Liang Shao's bright peach blossom eyes seemed to be looking at her. Yun Fang was both ashamed and happy, but she became more determined to walk with her brothers. So she held Song Jianing's arm and said intimately: "What grandmother and the others said were all about family matters. It sounded boring. It would be great that we brothers and sisters were together."
As he said that, he continued to pull Song Jianing around Guo Xiao and Liang Shao, with twins behind him.
"The third sister is right. An An should not go back. Girls should have the same way as girls. When you get married, you will have to deal with those ladies and wives for most of your life." Guo Shu said with a smile, before laughing. Guo Xiao turned around and glanced coldly at him: "That's what you should say as your brother?"
Guo Shu shrank his neck and waited for his brother to turn it over before he fucked Guo Xiao in the head.
Song Jianing couldn't help laughing. When he raised his eyes, he saw Yun Fang beside him laughing, but Yun Fang was not smiling as if Guo Shu. She walked with her arms, but her eyes looked slanted ahead. Song Jianing followed Yun Fang's gaze and saw Liang Shao's handsome face. Song Jianing was shocked. When he looked at Yun Fang again, his eyes were clearly filled with admiration!
Song Jianing finally knew why Yun Fang wanted to bring her over. Because Yun Fang wanted to peek at Liang Shao, she was embarrassed to approach him alone, so she pulled her to accompany her, as if she was just two sisters to get along with her brothers. After thinking it through, Song Jianing was shocked and irritated. Liang Shao was just a hypocrite. Why did Sister Yun Fang like such a person? Liang Shao was not worthy at all!
"I like to listen to my grandmother telling stories on the stage." My good cousin fell in love with a hypocrite. Song Jianing couldn't sit idly by, let alone help. He grabbed Yun Fang's hand and wanted to pull her back.
"Then you go by yourself, I want to sit with my second and third brothers." Yun Fang came over and needed an excuse. Now there is no shortage, so naturally I don't care about Song Jianing's stay or not.
Song Jianing pursed his lips. At this moment, Guo Xiao turned around again, looked at her and asked, "What story do you want to hear?"
That means, it seems that he will tell her what she wants to hear.
Song Jianing choked, then shook his head, left Yun Fang and left by himself. Let's talk about Yun Fang later. She will hide from Guo Xiao and stay away first.
She went around in a blink of an eye, and Guo Xiao stared at the slender back, and his big hand in his sleeve turned into a fist.
He didn't miss her, he was so far away from him.
The author has something to say: Guo Xiaolang: I want to eat meat.
Liang Shaohuo: I'll catch you.
Jianingtu: Help!
Zhao Henglong waved his tail and beat him away.
Jianingtu: You are so nice, I don’t know how to thank you.
Zhao Henglong: Give me a little dragon.
