While Lan Tingshu was worrying about his own affairs, Tang Tong was also facing his own troubles. The fourth wife of Qin Zhixuan had a distant relative named Zheng, and there was a talented and handsome young man named Zheng Liang in the family. He was diligent and progressive, and last year in Henan Province

He passed the provincial examination high school and will come to Beijing to take the examination the year after tomorrow. The Zheng family has a scholarly family and has been clean for generations. They live on the more than ten acres of Susukino farmland owned by their ancestors and have no worries about the world.

Zheng Liang was very demanding and would not marry anyone who was not a talented woman. Zheng Liang's mother began to make arrangements for her son after he won the first prize. After the marriage between Qi Chongyang and Qin Xinyi was announced, the fourth lady mentioned the matter to Qin Zhixuan. After half a year of open and covert visits,

Finally, he mentioned the marriage to his father Qin Yunhou. Qin Yunhou also asked his disciples to inquire about the situation of the Zheng family, and it was consistent with what Qin Zhixuan said, so he agreed to the marriage.

First, Qin Yunhou and Qin Xinyi talked. Qin Xinyi panicked after hearing this. Knowing that her grandfather had come forward in person, the matter was basically settled, so she had no choice but to agree to meet in Beijing to decide the matter.

Tang Tong knew the news that day and immediately sent people to investigate the situation of the Zheng family. The feedback was not optimistic. He was full of scholarly energy and was only obsessed with learning. He seemed to have a golden house in the book and a beautiful face in the book.

With his nerdy demeanor. There was no loophole to take advantage of, so Tang Tong could only consider coming to propose marriage, but

If an unimportant person comes to propose marriage, the Qin government will not even see him. The only person Tang Tong knows now is Shang Chengjie, who has the highest power, but will he stand up for him? Tang Tong does not dare to think about it, but fortunately there are still

After nearly a year, the most important task now is to repair the roads and bridges, and there is still time to slowly discuss it.

When Baoqin heard the news, he immediately went to tell Mr. Xu. Xu Jinglong stayed in the Hanlin Academy as he wished, and was appointed as the fifth grade student in the Hanlin Academy. Although he was two levels lower than Tang Tong, he had room for promotion in the civil service.

It is better than the military position and cannot be generalized. This is also an important reason why Baoqin looks down on Tang Tong.

The two met in a teahouse. Xu Jinglong and Baoqin were the only two people in the small private room. Baoqin first told the story about Zheng Liang, but Xu Jinglong listened carefully and did not speak.

After Baoqin finished speaking, she had nothing to say for a while. Xu Jinglong was just looking at her, actually thinking about how to act next. The moment of silence made Baoqin look very uncomfortable.

Xu Jinglong came back to his senses, saw everything in his eyes, and did not want to embarrass her, so he said gratefully: "Thank you, Miss Baoqin! If you need any help from me, please just ask!"

Baoqin only had Xu Jinglong in his heart, but he was at a loss as to what to do with him, but he was not afraid in front of others. "My guess is good, Tang Tong should also know about this. Young Master! Don't be anxious, he will definitely take action, it's best

Let’s take a look and then talk!” Baoqin had already thought of a countermeasure and didn’t forget to remind him.

"I think so too, but I have to take action. If I am always passive, I will lose my worth."

After hearing this, Baoqin nodded repeatedly and asked with great concern: "Master! Have you figured out what to do?"

"My initial idea is to ask Master Luo to come forward to propose marriage. I wonder if this is a good idea?" Xu Jinglong made a gesture of not listening to the advice. It was also a kind of test. In fact, he thought more deeply.

Baoqin shook his head repeatedly, "The young lady is most annoyed by the elders coming to propose marriage. Tang Tong knows best. It's better for the young master to take the initiative."

Xu Jinglong said "Oh", seemingly realizing his hastiness, "What's the best way to hold Qin girl?"

"I don't have any at the moment. You might as well learn from others. Why don't you go straight to the point? Tang Tong's method is quite useful to the young lady." Bao Qin was not short of having a unique vision. She felt that Qin Xinyi had a good impression of Tang Tong.

Xu Jinglong was speechless for a moment. After all, he and Tang Tong were two different people. Due to their personalities, they did not agree with each other. He did not expect Bao Qin to say such a thing, and it was difficult to object, so he was stunned and had nothing to say.

Baoqin saw it and said, "Young master, you don't have to study hard. You just need to get rid of the dross and take the essence!"

"That's exactly what I was thinking, thank you!", said, grabbing Baoqin's hands, which made Baoqin lower his head involuntarily, with a blush on his face, and let Xu Jinglong hold it, which is what she wanted.

of.

The days of building roads and bridges are boring, and it is difficult to persevere without a certain amount of willpower. But Tang Tong is definitely a perseverant person. He goes to the construction site to do some work in the morning and afternoon, and supervises the progress of the project.

On this day, Xiao Ningzi and his servant came to the construction site to find Tang Tong. When he saw Tang Tong looking dirty, the servant laughed and said, "I didn't expect that our Lord Tang would become a hard worker!".

Tang Tong said noncommittally: "Isn't it just a matter of an official uniform? If you lose your official position, won't you still be a coolie?".

The servant didn't reply. Tang Tong patted the dirt on his body, washed his hands and face, and took the servant out of the construction site to the river. Tang Tong asked, "Miss Shi Shu, what do you want from me?"

After hearing this, Shi Shu couldn't help but apologize to him, "Why can't I come to see you if I have nothing to do?".

"Welcome! How do you feel about seeing me in such a state of desolation?".

When the waiter heard this, he felt happy in his heart. He covered his mouth so as not to laugh. After waiting for a while, he said, "Our lady still has feelings for you. Why don't you see your actions?"

Tang Tong denied it flatly, "No? It's just that the time has not come yet and we can use our strength at the critical moment!".

The waiter breathed a sigh of relief, "Then wait until you exert your strength!".

Tang Tong looked at the servant's book, showing concern, "How are you doing lately?".

Seeing Tang Tong staring at him, the servant replied shyly: "Very good! The lady wanted me to stay by her side before, but now she doesn't care about me and just lets me walk around!".

Tang Tong understood what Qin Xinyi meant, which was to let Shishu deliver the news. Tang Tong stepped forward and held Shishu's hand. Shishu began to struggle, but when he couldn't break free, he let Tang Tong hold it and lowered his head in embarrassment.

"I want to see Miss Qin, please convey it."

The waiter couldn't help but shake his head, "I don't dare to say that!".

Tang Tong held Shi Shu's hand tightly and did not let go. He approached her and said, "Just tell her. Miss Qin will definitely go out if she wants to. Just tell me again."

The servant nodded and suddenly asked: "How did you know that the lady would go to see the lanterns last time?"

"You've been exposed, just find another spy!" Tang Tong smiled evilly.

The waiter inquired deeply and asked, "Who is it?"

Tang Tong hugged her waist, but Shi Shu was not happy this time, "Let go! Don't push yourself too far, I'm not a mean person!" Tang Tong had no choice but to let go, but still held Shi Shu's hands.

The waiter made no sound, so Tang Tong pretended to be mysterious and said: "It's someone you know."

Shishu bit back what he just said and asked nonchalantly: "Who is it?"

"I promised to keep her secret and I can't make a mistake!" he said, shaking his head repeatedly.

The servant thought for a moment and stopped asking, but still asked: "Why did he help you?"

Tang Tong squinted his eyes and snapped the thumb and index fingers of his right hand, "Money!".

The clerk got angry when he heard this, "Why didn't I see a copper coin from you?".

Tang Tong teased with a hint of sincerity, "I've given all my people to you, so money is nothing!".

The waiter was happy in his heart, but he still teased him, "Just be poor! Seeing the lady is like a mouse seeing a cat."

Tang Tong still refused to change his stubbornness, "It's just that we haven't reached the depth of love yet, and it will be even more disgusting than this. The waiter girl must not be jealous!".

The waiter snorted disapprovingly and said: "Who has nothing to do with your idle jealousy? Why don't we do something serious." Tang Tong couldn't help but laugh when the waiter spoke like this.

Tang Tong personally sent Shi Shu back to the city. Waiting for Shu and Xiao Ningzi took a carriage, while Tang Tong and He Wang rode on horseback. They marched to the outer city singing loudly. Tang Tong rode his horse to the carriage and asked: "Miss Shi Shu! It's time to eat now."

Well, why not find a restaurant nearby?"

But the waiter said loudly, "The restaurant is impersonal, so why not come to your house!".

When Tang Tong heard this, he jokingly teased her, "I have two pretty girls at home, and the girl who served as the clerk was only jealous and refused to eat. Isn't that my fault?"...

The waiter knew that Tang Tong was joking, so he replied, "I happen to have no taste, so I might as well be a little jealous!"
