"Mom, no matter what happens, I will let you see this."

Chen Yichen Zheng nodded heavily. Even if his mother didn't say this, he would stand in front of Zhu Yong one day.

It’s just that whether you are a son or not is a different matter.

Shen never doubted Chen Yichen's words, even though they were so unbearable before. She smiled and touched Chen Yichen's head. Now her son is almost one head taller than her.

"You're hungry, mom is going to prepare food for you."

"Um."

After dinner, Chen Yichen returned to his room and began to carefully study some examples of eight-legged essays from the imperial examinations in previous years.

These imperial examination examples, especially those from Sandingjia, will be counted and bound into books after the annual report, so that future students can study and study.

Regarding next year's college entrance examination, Chen Yichen's previous mentality was to do his best, no matter how the result was, at least he worked hard.

But now his mentality has changed. He must pass the scholar in the college entrance examination next year. If possible, he will attack the position of the head of the case. Even Chen Yichen, the provincial examination candidate in the late next year, must make up his mind to win it.

Because today's "grace gift" gave Chen Yichen a great warning. That is, Mrs. Lin is still willing to use money to settle the problem today. When she finds that she can't settle it, what will she do as the Duchess?

Ancient society was a jungle rule. Sometimes the common people were extremely humble in front of the powerful and did not even have the most basic ability to resist.

If you want to change this situation, the only thing you can do is protect your fame and fortune!

At the same time, Chen Yichen was also a little lucky. If he had agreed to Zhu Yong's Yinjian without understanding and successfully entered the genealogy, the mother and son would return to the Duke Cheng's Mansion.

So will what happened to Wang happen to his mother one day?

Even if Wang is not killed directly by Mrs. Lin, it is easy to avoid open guns and difficult to defend against hidden arrows. Once you enter this deep courtyard, many methods are really hard to defend against.

Not to mention a gentle woman like her mother, even if she has two lifetimes of memory, she may not be able to play with Lin.

At least now she is still a maid who is in the genealogy, and the mother and son are still excluded by Duke Cheng. Mrs. Lin may have noticed a hint of threat, but the status of the two sides is very different and should be able to remain stable for a while.

Unexpectedly, I came to the limelight and got not only the famous Yingtian Mansion, but also the storm is coming...

The next day, Chen Yichen went to the Duke Cheng Mansion's private school as usual, and Mrs. Lin's "grace gift" was also returned by her mother Shen.

The other party did not follow up, everything seemed to return to peace, but I didn't know how long this peaceful day could last.

As time passed day by day, it was soon the day of the moon vacation. Chen Yichen turned down Zhao Hongjie's invitation to go out with him, and according to his agreement with his husband Li Tingxiu, he came to the corner gate of Duke Cheng's mansion and went with him to meet the senior.

At this moment, a carriage had been parked in the alley outside the corner gate. When Li Tingxiu saw Chen Yichen coming, he waved to him and signaled to get in the car and sit together.

When he got on the carriage, Chen Yichen looked at him curiously. To be honest, this was his first time traveling over and riding on the transportation of this era. But it didn't feel very good. After all, there were no shock absorbing components such as tires and springs, and the road surface was a little uneven and shaking.

"Why, I haven't taken a carriage?"

Looking at Chen Yichen's curious baby look, Li Tingxiu asked.

"Um."

Since childhood, Chen Yichen's life scope has basically been fixed around the Duke of Chengguo's Mansion. He has no chance to travel far, and he does not need to ride a carriage.

"The ancients talked about the six arts of gentlemen, but although they are no longer recommended now, as a grand relative, you still have to be familiar with the riding and shooting skills when you have the opportunity."

"Students understand."

Chen Yichen understands the truth, and he is also very interested in trying to ride horses and shoot archery, but he has to have this opportunity.

Li Tingxiu was not a person who liked to talk too much. After a few conversations, he began to close his eyes and rest. With the creaking sound of the wheels, the carriage stopped in front of an elegant courtyard.

"Here, get off."

"Sir, it's time to tell me now, which senior you are going to meet today, right?"

"Lin Zhen, the top scholar in Gengxu in the fifth year of Xuande."

What?

When Chen Yichen heard this name, he was stunned. Zhao Hongjie had said excitedly before that there was a top scholar named Lin Zhen who wanted to invite him to attend a Winter Solstice Poetry Fair.

At that time, I didn't take it seriously at all. As a result, I never expected that the senior I want to meet with Li Tingxiu today was this top scholar. Could it be that Mr. really was the same year as him in the imperial examination?

Before he could recover, Li Tingxiu had already got off the carriage. Seeing this, Chen Yichen had to follow him quickly, and the two of them walked into the courtyard one after another.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw two literati in green clothes standing at the door of the main hall. Among them, the one in the left hand position saw Li Tingxiu and bowed to greet him: "Weichu (Li Tingxiu's name), I haven't seen him for a long time, so I'm fine."

Li Tingxiu also bowed and replied, "Brother Dunsheng (Lin Zhen's name) has been missing for a long time."

Chen Yichen didn't know that Lin Zhen's name was Dunsheng, but in ancient times, he was polite to be respected by the left, and the other party took the initiative to welcome guests. If nothing unexpected happens, he was the owner of this courtyard, Lin Zhen, the top scholar in the fifth year of Xuande.

"By the way, Weichu, let me introduce you to you. This is Sun Tixue, who is the admiral Yingtian Xuezheng, whose courtesy name is Yixuan."

"Students have met the Grand Master!"

The Admiral Education and Administration is an official title, and his responsibilities are to be in charge of the imperial examination and education work in a province, and also to be responsible for the selection and supervision. Therefore, all students and scholars in the world respectfully call the Promotion Officer the Grand Master.

Although Li Tingxiu had passed the imperial examination, he did not become an official. So when facing the Southern Zhili Admiral, he still regarded himself as a student and called him the other party's respectful title.

Chen Yichen was standing behind him at the moment, thinking about how to salute and say hello. However, when he looked at Sun Tixue, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Soon, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and Chen Yichen remembered where he had seen it. Isn’t this the Sun Tixue whom I applauded at the family banquet of Chengguo Duke and heard Zeng Mengjian’s poem after hearing Zeng Mengjian’s poem?

I really didn't expect that I would meet him here. Sure enough, I never met in my life...

"Weichu, this is not an officialdom, so there is no need to politely criticize these false names, so it is better to call it among old friends."

Sun Tixue replied with a smile, he would meet old friends when he came here today, so he didn't want to do the kind and polite gifts of officialdom.

In addition, he also plans to meet a new junior.

After saying that, Sun Tixue turned his attention to Chen Yichen, and his eyes were quite interesting.

Seeing Sun Tixue's eyes looking over, Chen Yichen understood that the other party must have recognized him, so he could only grit his teeth and salute, "I have met the priest of the emperor in my late years and the great master."

Lin Zhen had retired and returned to his hometown, and had no official position, so Chen Yichen called him Zhuangyuan Gong. As a student who had not entered school, he had no choice but to choose a school official in the province and could only respectfully call him Grand Master.

"My friend Chen, we're meeting again."

"Grandmaster, I feel ashamed of being a man."

Chen Yichen quickly gave in a humble voice, he couldn't afford to be a friend. Because in the Ming Dynasty, he was qualified to be called a friend. If he was a student, he could call him an old friend politely without knowing him.

Before, Zhou Zhixian was fooled at the family dinner and mistakenly thought that he had joined the school student, so he was called Chen Xiaoyou.

Now Sun Tixue knows his background and deliberately decides to be a friend, that would be very disrespectful.
