In fact, the two government officials rarely come to Qinhuai Old Courtyard. When they have money, they go to Nanshi Lou Street more often. But they can't stand the fact that the old hospital is so famous. Everyone must know how to get there.
After crossing Banqiao and arriving at the south bank of the Qinhuai River, I found out where Wang Lianqing's home was by asking around.
After entering the door, Wang Ba, who was waiting for the guest, was naturally led to sit in the hall. Mr. Yan slapped a piece of silver and explained his intention. Seeing that the guest was generous, Wang Ba went to make arrangements.
Immediately, Mr. Yan was told that he only had half an hour, and was led to the flower hall in the inner courtyard. After that, the maid served tea and talked with him, and after a while, Wang Lianqing, who was neatly dressed, came out.
Beauty Wang has become famous in the past two years not only because of Qin Dewei's praise, but also because of her excellent qualities in all aspects from appearance to skills.
At the peak of his twenties, Mr. Yan was stunned for a moment as soon as he appeared, and he felt quite stunned.
But in the eyes of Beauty Wang, Mr. Yan's majestic appearance is really unsightly. He is just a guest for a chat and performing show, so it doesn't matter, and he won't have close contact with him.
Mr. Yan woke up, his eyes were full of greed, he suppressed his jealousy towards the primary school students, and said: "I have heard about the reputation of Jinling Chunmeng for a long time, and today I see that it is well-deserved!"
Wang Meiren covered her mouth with a professional smile: "Young master, you are really ridiculous. You haven't even listened to the song Jinling Spring Dream. How do you know that your reputation is well-deserved?"
Well, let’s bring the conversation to art, and then we can leave after listening to the music.
Mr. Yan did not answer, but said: "I will probably live in Nandu for a long time in the next few years. I want to have a long-term relationship with my sister..."
Wang Lianqing suddenly took the lead and said with a smile: "Young master is welcome to come here often!"
Mr. Yan is a sensitive and astute person, and he immediately realized that this was an implicit dislike.
But it doesn't matter, he also understands that he is not good at respecting appearance. If he wants to judge people by their appearance, no one can think highly of him.
But he relies on his talent to make a living. The more people look down on him at the front, the more shocked he will be at the back.
As long as we can win over Wang Lianqing, who is exclusively for primary school students, wouldn't it mean that we have taken away the primary school students' fame? They will definitely become famous in Nanjing City immediately!
I am new here, so what I lack is this kind of reputation. Coupled with the bonus of Master Fu Yin’s status, it will be much easier to do many things!
"Hahahaha!" Mr. Yan laughed a few times and said aggressively: "I think there is no sincerity in what my sister said."
"Young Master has wronged me again!" Wang Meiren responded skillfully: "Why are you so insincere? I think you don't want to come here anymore, just looking for an excuse!"
Mr. Yan said proudly: "That's not what I meant. I just want to say that if my sister obeys me, I guarantee that you will become the number one popular actress in Jinling. No one can compete with you!"
Wang Lianqing was indifferent to this, and her heart had no fluctuations. She had listened to Qin Dewei too much, and Master Yan was just childish.
Being number one in Jinling doesn't matter, Qin Dewei is number one in the world!
But if the guest wants to brag, she can only deal with it perfunctorily: "There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Jinling City. How dare you claim to be number one?"
Mr. Yan was a little strange, why did he deliberately shock others with his big words, but Miss Wang didn't have any special reaction at all?
Then he pretended to be disdainful and continued: "What a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, in my eyes, most of them are just ordinary people!"
Wang Lianqing remained unfazed by Mr. Yan's arrogant tone. To be honest, after hanging out with Qin Dewei for a long time, she was a little immune to this pretentious mode, and even felt a little sick of it.
No matter how crazy he is, can he be more crazy than Qin Dewei? When lying down and chatting, Qin Dewei dares to criticize even the emperor, let alone ordinary people.
There is nothing you can do, since you are a guest, just continue to be perfunctory.
Beauty Wang suppressed a yawn and echoed: "Yes, yes, Mr. Yan is definitely a talented person. No one else can compare with him. Mr. Yan lives in Jinling all the time, which is also a blessing for Jinling!"
The words were all very obedient, but Mr. Yan felt a strong sense of coping.
Shouldn’t you, Beauty Wang, show shock, disbelief, contempt, and doubts? Then you can show off your amazing talents!
How could he continue to show off in such a emotionless scene? There is a saying that the most irritating thing is not contempt, but disregard!
If more than twenty years later, Yan Shifan, who was notorious for his evil deeds and extremely crazy, said these words as the best young master in the world, no one would dare to ignore them, but now it is only the twelfth year of Jiajing...
Before Mr. Yan could find a way to impress Wang Meiren again, a maid reminded him: "The time has come."
Beauty Wang smiled sweetly at Mr. Yan, said, "I look forward to seeing you again," and stood up to leave.
Mr. Yan didn't know when he had been holding back his anger in his heart. He really saw a ghost today. As long as the words Qin Dewei were mentioned, nothing would go smoothly! Seeing that Beauty Wang was about to leave, he subconsciously grabbed her sleeve.
Wang Lianqing pulled back his sleeves, but Mr. Yan was so fierce that he refused to let go.
The spring shirt was thin and the sleeves were torn on the spot. Wang Lianqing glared at Mr. Yan angrily, turned around and left quickly.
Mr. Yan was always a narrow-minded person, so he immediately shouted: "If you dare to leave, I will make Qin Dewei kneel here and beg for my life!"
When Wang Lianqing heard the words "Qin Dewei", although his expression changed, he did not stop. However, thugs immediately appeared and surrounded Young Master Yan.
Mr. Yan showed no fear and shouted sternly: "Who dares to touch me! Master, I won't leave. If you are sensible, just call that primary school student over!"
Chen Lao bustard and Wang Ba recognized the attendant outside as a government official, but they couldn't figure it out for a while. They didn't even ask about the identity of the guest, so they hurriedly sent people to find Qin Dewei.
We first went to Qin's house in Qingxi, but Qin Dewei was not there. The Hao family's aunt said that the young master went to the county to study.
Coincidentally, today is Jiangning County School’s monthly collective back-to-school day.
These days, the county school is loose. Let alone letting the scholars come to school every day, it would be nice to have a back-to-school day every month.
In theory, the instructor should give a lecture, and then everyone will discuss the text. In practice, it means explaining some recent events, and then announcing the test questions for next month.
Qin Dewei stood outside Minglun Hall and glanced at the crowd. More than a hundred people were present, which was different from the deserted scene he imagined.
I went to listen to other people's discussions and realized that everyone was here to take the opportunity to get together and discuss spring travel matters.
Not long after, Ding Jiaoyu came out and first read out the new order from the great master: Chen Neng and the other four people were temporarily exempted from their crowns and belts, deposed to Qingyi, and sent to society to study.
Everyone was in an uproar. They hadn't seen such a severe punishment in many years.
Being deposed from Qingyi is a punishment second only to complete dismissal from the rank. It is considered to be reduced to a candidate and no longer enjoys the privileges of a student.
Are the consequences of drinking flower wine without paying for it so serious?
Qin Dewei was also surprised. His original intention was to beat up these bastards and give them a small punishment, but he didn't expect such a big move to happen.
Then he went to ask Xing Yifeng: "What is this situation? What happened after I left that day?"
Xing Yifeng pointed at the leader, Gao Changjiang: "It's all the teachings inspired by Brother Gao."
Qin Dewei said to Gao Changjiang again: "After all, we are classmates, just stop there. You are going too far."
Gao Changjiang snorted, "What do you know about politics as a primary school student? How can you miss the opportunity to establish your prestige? How can you cultivate a tiger and avoid trouble against the enemy?"
So the eldest brother Gao said impassionedly to his fellow freshmen: "We freshmen must not be bullied by others, and you don't have to thank me!
There is only so much I can do now, as long as I am elected as senior, we can unite as one and no one will dare to humiliate us again!"
Immediately, a dozen old students with unkind expressions surrounded Gao Changjiang, and they all sneered maliciously.
This year's freshman leader is a bit arrogant. Don't leave after a while. Let's all compete with each other.
The freshmen dispersed in droves again, leaving the leader alone among the old students.
Qin Dewei, who had the weakest fighting ability, took Xing Yifeng and quietly hid outside, silently mourning for his eldest brother Gao.
He was very familiar with Dr. Zhang from the medical department at the county government office, so he would just ask Hao Danian to call Dr. Zhang over to rescue the patient.
Suddenly a county official ran in, holding up a roll of paper and said: "The examination list has been sent, send a copy to the county school!"
According to the time, although the joint examination is over now, the palace examination has not yet been held, so we can only call the joint examination list, not the Jinshi list.
But as long as you pass the general examination, you will definitely be a Jinshi. The palace examination only determines the final ranking and will not eliminate people. Therefore, the list of the general examination can be equivalent to the list of new Jinshi, but without ranking.
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted to the list, and the officer posted the list on the wall. To facilitate copying and delivery, this was only a list of Nanzhili, but it was enough, and no one would pay attention to other provinces first.
When Qin Dewei saw the name "Zeng Mian" on the list, he was completely relieved. He couldn't help but sigh. After two generations of people, he finally became the second generation Shangguan.
Then I glanced at the list a few more times, but I didn't see the names of Li Dongzhu, Shen Kun, Wang Yan, etc. as the future champions or big names. It seemed that my luck would not always be with them.
But inadvertently, Qin Dewei discovered Zhang Huan's name on the list and was very surprised.
Among the people who borrowed houses from him, Zhang Huan, who was introduced by Wen Zhengming, should be the least eye-catching. Unexpectedly, he actually surpassed those historical celebrities and big shots, and he won the prize this year.
The imperial examination is really just about appearance sometimes.
Several other old students discovered Qin Dewei, and they came around and said amiably: "You led Chen Neng and the others to the old courtyard that day?"
Qin Dewei felt no fluctuation in his heart. He pointed at Mr. Zeng's name on the list and said, "Let me tell you first, this is my father. What else do you want to say to me?"
The expressions of the old students changed and they became more amiable. They cupped their hands and said, "Nothing else, I just want to congratulate my friend Qin!"
The eldest brother Gao Ruo, who was still being held down by the old students, suddenly realized that politics also requires fighting for his father. Could it be that the youngest Qin Dewei is going to become a senior?
At this time, the gatekeeper of the county school came over and said to Qin Dewei: "There is someone looking for me outside! They say they are from Wang Lianqing's family. Please come over!"
