Turning around, Qin Hao arrived at the Sheng family in a carriage from the Dongchang Marquis Mansion. A handsome young man was already waiting at the door.
"Little Marquis."

Qin Hao cupped his hands and smiled: "This must be Brother Changbai? I often hear cousin Tingye talking about you. Since you are a close friend of your cousin, you don't have to be so outspoken. When you were admitted to the scholar examination, Master Li chose the character: Ziyu
, Brother Changbai, just call Ziyu directly."
When Sheng Changbai heard that Qin Hao and Gu Tingye were cousins, he didn't hesitate any more. He called Ziyu and pulled Qin Hao to the school. Along the way, he was still watching Gu Tingye's situation at Bailudong Academy in the hall.
Qin Hao was a little helpless. Why did this ancient man always like to hold hands?
As soon as I arrived at the school, a handsome young man came yawning.
Qin Hao took a look and realized that this person should be Sheng Changfeng, the third son of the Sheng family. He looked a bit like Sheng Hong. No wonder Sheng Hong loved him so much.
[Ding, complete the character check-in: Sheng Changfeng, reward luck value: 15.]
Sheng Changbai introduced the two of them, Sheng Changfeng and Qin Hao both said hello, and they were considered acquaintances.
Not long after, two teenage girls also arrived at the school. The one with yellow hair and a naive expression should be Ru Lan, and the one in gorgeous clothes and as delicate as a flower should be Mo Lan.
[Ding, complete the character check-in: Sheng Rulan, reward luck value: 25.]
[Ding, complete the character check-in: Sheng Molan, reward luck value: 30.]
Sheng Changbai introduced to Qin Hao: "This is my fourth sister Mo Lan, and this is my fifth sister Rulan."
Qin Hao slightly cupped his hands: "I've met the fourth and fifth sisters."
As soon as Rulan entered the school, she felt that the young man in front of her was really good-looking. She looked at him innocently. It was not until Qin Hao greeted him that she realized what she was doing and hurriedly saluted Qin Hao. Perhaps she was too nervous and her salute was a little out of shape.
Sheng Changbai frowned when he saw this and glared at her fiercely.
Mo Lan originally thought it was a waste to wear the Lantern Festival plum blossom dress today, but as soon as she saw Qin Hao, this emotion disappeared instantly, and she felt that the young man in front of her seemed to be walking with spring.
Come.
"I've met Brother Qin." Mo Lan smiled charmingly and saluted.
Seeing that her limelight had been stolen by Mo Lan, Ru Lan was immediately unhappy and stared at her fiercely. At this moment, a chubby little girl also walked into the school.
[Ding, complete the character check-in: Sheng Minglan, reward luck value: 50.]
Seeing the little girl's appearance of not yet waking up, Sheng Changbai reluctantly introduced to Qin Hao: "This is my sixth sister Minglan."
Qin Hao's heart moved: "Sixth sister, good morning."
Minglan smiled and said, "I have met the young Marquis."
Qin Hao couldn't help but feel a little confused. Minglan didn't seem to realize the meaning of the three words "good morning". It didn't look like he was a "fellow fellow". In other words, he was in the world of the Zhifu film and television series, not the original work.
world.
While they were talking, Zhuang Xuexue arrived. Sheng Changbai and others quickly returned to their seats and sat down. It seemed that Zhuang Xuexue was still very authoritative.
"Now that you all know each other, I won't waste any more time. Let's start the class." Zhuang Xuexue began to teach in a serious manner.
Even though Zhuang Xuexue did not pass the Jinshi examination, there is no doubt about his knowledge. Just look at the few people who attended Shengjia Shu School who had the talent and learning to pass the Jinshi examination. You must know that the Jinshi examination in the Song Dynasty was more difficult than the examination of Tsinghua University and Peking University. It can be seen that Zhuang Xuexue
teaching ability.
"There is little to suit the vulgar charm, and one's nature is to love hills and mountains.
I accidentally fell into the dust net and passed away for thirty years..."
There were sounds of reading aloud in the book school. In the morning, there were basically reading comprehension courses such as appreciation of ancient Chinese prose. This also meant taking care of the three girls of the Sheng family.
In the afternoon, there was a policy class. Minglan and the others were not allowed to attend this class, but they were not left idle. Zhuang Xuexue's wife arranged music lessons for them. As women, they could not take part in the imperial examinations, so they might as well learn these exercises.
The sentiment is more appropriate.
After finishing the morning class, Qin Hao took the carriage back to Dongchang Hou Mansion for a lunch break. He had an hour's rest at noon, but it was not too late.
Qin Hao didn't know that the Sheng family was already in trouble.
Rulan returned to Wei Ruixuan and swept the teacups on the table to the floor. Wang Ruofu was so angry that he pointed at his daughter's nose and cursed.
"Are you crazy? What's wrong with you? You actually ran up to me and acted miserably. Do you really think I'm reluctant to do anything to you?"
But Rulan cried like a tearful person: "Mom, you don't love me!"
Wang Ruofu glared at Ru Lan, then pointed at himself, and said to Liu's mother beside him: "I don't love her enough? Why don't I hold her close first when it's delicious, delicious, and fun? This evildoer is really going to make her angry.
Can’t you kill me?”
Liu's mother quickly advised: "Madam, maybe the girl encountered something in class. Don't be impatient. Just ask slowly."
Wang Ruofu pointed at Ru Lan and said with red eyes: "Okay, you say, if you don't tell me why today, I'll watch your skin carefully!"
Ru Lan wiped away her tears, rubbed her neck and said, "If mother loves me, why didn't she tell me that today the young Marquis will come to my home for class? Then Mo Lan put on the plum blossom and water skirt, and also
With such exquisite makeup, I looked like a loser standing next to her, and was laughed at all the time!"
Wang Ruofu understood immediately upon hearing this that Mo Lanyan had suppressed the co-authorship.
"It's that cheap maid from Lin Qige who is causing trouble again. I'm really ashamed of myself!" Wang Ruofu cursed through gritted teeth.
Having said this, Wang Ruofu was no longer angry with his daughter and held her in his arms to comfort her.
"Ru Lan, it's not that mother doesn't plan for you. Mother has already mentioned it to your father, but it can't be done. Our family is far from the Dongchang Hou Mansion. Think about your sister Hua Lan, just think about it.
Just marrying the second son of an earl is considered a high priority for us. The young marquis is the legitimate son of Dongchang Houfu and will inherit the title in the future. Besides, he is such a talented person that he can even marry a princess. Our family is a high ranking person.
Not available!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Ru Lan said angrily: "Then why is Mo Lan still so eager?"
Wang Ruofu glared and pointed in the direction of Lin Qige and cursed: "That's the wishful thinking of that cheap maid. Even your legitimate daughter can't reach as high as you, let alone her as a concubine? The legitimate son of a marquis, marry a concubine as a eldest wife? When the time comes
Aren’t you going to make people laugh?”
Ru Lan thought it made sense when she heard it, and she wasn't so angry at all. It wasn't that she liked Qin Hao very much, but she didn't want Mo Lan to get an advantage.
On the other side, Linqi Pavilion had a different scene.
Mo Lan returned to Lin Qige happily, and Lin Xiaoniang smiled when she saw her like this.
"How is it? Have you met the young Marquis? Did I lie to you?"
Mo Lan shook her head shyly: "The young marquis is really a talented person, and he is also very knowledgeable. Especially that one stroke of calligraphy really captures the essence of appearance and body. Even Zhuang Xuexue praised him when he saw it."
Lin Xiaoniang asked again with concern: "What about him? Is there anything special about him?"
Mo Lan thought about it and smiled slightly: "Of course, when I just walked into the school, his eyes stayed on me for a while, and it was not in vain that I got up early in the morning to dress up and put on this suit.
skirt."
Lin Xiaoniang said proudly: "Look, what I said is right, right? You were not happy at the beginning."
"Oh, my dear," Mo Lan said coquettishly.
Lin Xiaoniang smiled and comforted: "Okay, don't let me go with your delicate energy. When you see the young prince, talk to him more. Don't be afraid. Be generous. Aren't you good at poetry? You often talk to the young prince.
Lord Marquis, please give me some advice, don’t you become familiar with me after going back and forth?”
"Yes." Mo Lan nodded vigorously, and then said regretfully: "Unfortunately, I have to take music lessons in the afternoon, so I won't be able to see the young Marquis."
"You girl, you fell in love with her after just one meeting?" Lin Xiaoniang poked Mo Lan's forehead and teased.
Mo Lan turned away shyly, her cheeks burning.
In the blink of an eye, Qin Hao had been attending the Sheng family private school for a month, and he had become familiar with several members of the Sheng family. Sheng Changbai was dedicated to learning and often discussed policy papers with Qin Hao.
The relationship between Sheng Changfeng and Qin Hao can only be regarded as average. He is focused on some poetry gatherings and listening to music, but Qin Hao rarely participates in such occasions. On the one hand, he is still too young and there is no point in going there.
On the one hand, the hygiene of ancient brothels could not be guaranteed, and Qin Hao did not want to get sick at a young age.
Mo Lan always came to ask Qin Hao for calligraphy advice when she had nothing to do. Originally, she wanted to ask for advice on poetry. Unfortunately, Qin Hao's poetry skills were average, so Mo Lan took a roundabout way and began to get close to Qin Hao in the name of bargaining for calligraphy.
Qin Hao doesn't have any hobby for little lolita, but it's hard for him to refuse when such a cute little girl comes to ask for advice. Of course, in Mo Lan's view, Qin Hao is interested in her, so he can only say...
Little girls in ancient times were really precocious. If we put it in modern times, this would be puppy love, and their parents would have already arranged to change schools.
Every time at this time, Ru Lan would get so angry that she would come to make trouble. It wasn't that she liked Qin Hao very much, but she didn't want to see Mo Lan succeed. As long as Mo Lan was angry, she would be happy. However, she was not as sharp-tongued as Mo Lan.
Mo Lan was often so angry that she exploded, but in the end it was Qin Hao who came out to smooth things over, preventing the situation from being too embarrassing.
As for Minglan, this girl didn't participate at all. At this time, Minglan still had baby fat on her face and looked like a naive little penguin. Neither Ru Lan nor Mo Lan regarded her as a threat.
On this day, Sheng Changbai brought a piece of news.
"Qi Guogong's young uncle, Qi Heng, is also coming to attend classes at the Sheng Family Private School."
Qin Hao's heart moved, it seemed that he was about to get another fortune value. Qi Heng is known as the most beautiful man in the world, but he doesn't know if his real appearance is really better than Pan An's.
This incident also caused quite a stir in the Sheng family.
Wang Ruofu was so excited that he danced for joy: "It's so lucky that there is no way to stop it. First, the young prince from Dongchang Hou Mansion came to our private school to study, and now the young prince from Qi Guo Gong Mansion is coming too. Mother Liu, please make arrangements quickly."
On the fifteenth day of this month, go to Yuqing Temple to offer incense and fulfill your wishes!"
Liu's mother responded and said happily: "Yes, our brother Bai can be classmates with the young marquis and the young prince. His career will be smooth in the future, and maybe he can earn a living for his wife."
"
Wang Ruofu became even more excited when he thought of this. He pinched the handkerchief and twisted it again and again, gritting his teeth and said, "What a shame, I let that bitch's son take advantage of it."
Ru Lan on the side was playing with the two teacups in front of her, muttering to herself: "A young marquis or a young prince, which one is better?"
When Wang Ruofu and Liu's mother heard this, they didn't know what to say and could only shake their heads helplessly.
On the other side of Lin Qige, Lin Xiaoniang was also struggling.
"There is a young prince and a young prince. How should we choose?"
The servants on the side rolled their eyes when they heard this, as if they were rushing to get your daughter, and they didn't even look at their family background. How could they look at a concubine?
But Mo Lan said coyly: "My dear, what are you talking about? I already have brother Ziyu, and that young man, no matter how good he is, can't get enough of me."
Lin Xiaoniang said angrily: "You girl, what are you talking about? Did you and the young Marquis exchange a token of love? Or did you make a private commitment for life? Can you guarantee that I won't marry anyone but you?"
Mo Lan turned away angrily, she was not happy to hear such words.
Lin Xiaoniang had no choice but to persuade her sincerely: "You, don't get yourself into too deep. This woman, getting married is like reincarnating for the second time. She cannot afford to lose. We can't put all our money into it. We have to be careful before making a decision."
Note, do you know?”
"oh."
Turning around, Qin Hao arrived at the side door of Sheng's house in a carriage. At this time, another carriage happened to be parked next to it.
Qin Hao got off the carriage and saw a handsome young man with bright eyes and white teeth also getting off the carriage.
At this time, Sheng Changbai came over from the backyard and smiled when he saw it: "Yesterday I heard that Yuan Ruo was coming to class. I was so happy that I didn't sleep a wink all night. I almost missed picking him up. Don't blame Yuan Ruo."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Qi Heng smiled slightly and said loudly: "Brother Zecheng said something, I am the one who bothered you."
Sheng Changbai then introduced Qin Hao and Qi Heng.
[Ding, complete the character check-in: Qi Heng, reward luck value: 35.]
Qin Hao also started chatting with Qi Heng, but when they talked about Gu Tingye, Qi Heng said: "In that case, I have to call Ziyu third uncle."
"Oh? Why is this?" Sheng Changbai asked curiously.
Qi Heng explained: "The Qi family is related to the Gu family. They happen to be nephews in my generation. Ziyu is Gu's second uncle's cousin. Shouldn't I call him third uncle?"
"Haha, let's talk about our own things. Anyway, my cousin hasn't come to the capital now. Don't take this crooked relative seriously, otherwise Zhuang Xuexue will laugh at us for being pedantic again." Qin Hao said with a smile.
"Okay, to be honest, Ziyu is four years younger than me, so I'm not used to calling him uncle." Qi Heng also laughed when he heard this.
Qin Hao nodded secretly. No wonder Qi Heng was so popular with women in the original drama. He was handsome, had a good family background, had a good personality, and was funny. His only shortcoming might be that he was not decisive enough.
Qin Hao and his party came to the school chatting and laughing, and happened to meet three girls, Ru Lan, Mo Lan, and Ming Lan, coming to class.
For a moment, Ru Lan and Mo Lan didn't know where to turn their eyes. This young man looked too good-looking.
Qin Hao and Qi Heng belong to two different types of handsome men. Qin Hao is the masculine type with sharp and angular facial contours, while Qi Heng is the elegant type with softer lines and gives people the feeling of being as gentle as jade.
Ru Lan and Mo Lan basically didn't listen to this class, and their eyes couldn't help but drift towards Qin Hao and Qi Heng.
Only Minglan was fishing as usual. I don’t know if Zhuang Xuexue’s reading voice had a hypnotic effect. This girl always looked like she couldn’t wake up. If it weren’t for the fact that she could still see a trace of it through the slits of her squinted eyes.
The light would definitely think that she was completely asleep.
Time flew by so fast, and it was already winter in the blink of an eye. Qin Hao also spent his first Spring Festival in Dongchanghou Mansion. Of course, in the Song Dynasty, it was not called the Spring Festival, but New Year's Day. It was a holiday from the Winter Solstice to the Lantern Festival.
The decline of Dongchang Houfu can also be seen from here. There is an endless stream of guests coming and going from Ningyuan Houfu, who is also a marquis, but Dongchang Houfu only has three or two kittens. This is reality.
But for Qin Hao, this is not a bad thing. Ancient etiquette is too cumbersome. If nothing else, just New Year greetings give Qin Hao a headache.
New Year greetings for future generations are just a formality, saying a few auspicious words and you can get red envelopes.
But in ancient times, it was really necessary to kowtow when paying New Year greetings.
After finally visiting relatives, Qin Hao's neck felt a little sore. As soon as he returned to the room and sat down, a pair of gentle hands pressed and kneaded the back of Qin Hao's neck.
Qin Hao looked back and saw that Qingmei was working hard to help him relieve his fatigue. Over the past year, Qingmei had been waiting in his room.
Of course, Qingmei's "job" is to warm the bed. Especially in winter, when there is no fire kang, it is so comfortable to have someone to hold her and sleep with.
The only pity is that Qin Hao is only thirteen years old, so it's not time yet.
After massaging Qin Hao, Qingmei blushed again and asked: "Sir, it's getting late. Can Qingmei warm the bed for you?"
Qin Hao nodded, and Qingmei shyly walked to the bed, took off her coat, and got into bed.
After a while, Qin Hao blew out the candle and got in. Qingmei's hot body trembled, but she obediently put Qin Hao's feet on her belly.
Alas, I like this decadent feudal society!
Qin Hao thought sinfully, and his cold hands slipped into a warm haven. Qingmei snorted and trembled a few times.
I don't know how long it took, but Qingmei suddenly felt Qin Hao's hand withdrawing. She breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little disappointed at the same time.
Qin Hao smiled and pinched her cheek: "It's not the time yet."
Qingmei lowered her head shyly and said an inaudible "hmm".
"Go to sleep, I have to go to the Sheng family to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow." Qin Hao hugged Qingmei into his arms.
Qingmei lay on Qin Hao's chest, rubbed it, and closed her eyes.
Soon after, Qin Junye and his wife took Qin Hao to the Sheng Mansion, and brought many gifts, mainly to thank the Sheng family for allowing Qin Hao to study in their private school, and at the same time, they also opened the family's book collection to Qin Hao.
In ancient times, books were very expensive to make and inconvenient to circulate. Many books were single copies, and the heritage of the scholarly family was reflected here. Although the books of the Sheng family were not as numerous as those of Bailudong Academy, the quality was even better.
In addition, many of the ancestors of the Sheng family have some unique insights into the famous works of the sages, which cannot be seen outside.
Just as Qin Hao arrived, Qi Heng also arrived, and the group came to the front hall of Sheng's house talking and laughing.
