Wearing a green soap scribe's gown and holding a folding fan, there are not too many decorations, and the clothes are made of ordinary people's fabrics, but his temperament is gentle and elegant, giving people a very comfortable and contactable feeling.
At this moment, he stared closely at Li Chen's hand holding Su Jinpa's wrist, his eyes flashing with disbelief.
Su Jinpa turned around and saw him, Yingying said: "It turns out to be Mr. Hou."
Hou Yushu's eyes fell on Li Chen and asked Su Jinpa: "This young master looks very familiar. He came out of the general's mansion with Miss Su. I wonder which relative of Miss Su he is?"
Hou Yushu's question was very well asked.
It's obviously a test of Li Chen's identity, but it doesn't make people feel disgusted.
Obviously, he is very concerned about his image in Su Jinpa's eyes, and he also knows that Su Jinpa has always hated dandies the most.
Su Jinpa was about to answer when he saw Li Chen holding Su Jinpa half in his arms, looking at Hou Yu calmly and saying: "I am not a relative of her family, I am her fiancé."
As soon as this statement came out, Hou Yushu's face was full of disbelief.
"Miss Su, when did you become betrothed!?"
Su Jinpa was extremely embarrassed, but before she could protest, Li Chen stole her words again and said: "The decision was just made two days ago and has already been approved by General Su. It's all a coincidence. My father
I have an old relationship with General Su, and we have already made an appointment for the baby's marriage many years ago, and now it is official. In a few days, the betrothal gift and the matchmaker's letter will be sent to the house."
After hearing this, Hou Yushu could no longer maintain his gentle and elegant temperament. He said angrily: "Miss Su has always liked freedom, how could she accept this kind of engagement made by her parents many years ago!?"
"presumptuous!"
Li Chen shouted coldly and said expressionlessly: "How can marriage be a piece of cake? It has always been the matchmaker's decision and the parents' orders. When will it be your turn to make the decision? And you, an outsider, have no right to speak. Looking at you dressed as a scholar, you can't
Have you ever sought fame?"
Li Chen has been in a high position for a long time, and now he is in charge of the center of power of the empire. As long as the emperor takes a breath and Zhao Xuanji lowers his head, he can immediately ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor to rule the world. Such majestic manners are not what Hou Yushu looks like, like a little scholar.
Comparable.
His aura was crushed in an instant. Hou Yushu was frightened and subconsciously replied: "I have passed the provincial examination and obtained the qualification for the joint examination. I am just waiting for the joint examination to be held after March of the new year."
Speaking of this, Hou Yushu seemed to have regained a little confidence, and said proudly: "Although I have little talent and little knowledge, I am sure to get the title of Jinshi!"
"I passed the provincial examination and also obtained the qualification for the joint examination, which is indeed pretty good."
Li Chen's tone suddenly rose and he said: "If you pass the provincial examination, you can enter the court and become an official and be called a master, but you don't even understand that marriage is the life of your parents. I think you have read all the sage books in vain.
.”
Seeing Hou Yushu's unconvinced look, Li Chen said calmly: "Even if you pass the examination, it doesn't matter. If you have the ability to enter the top ten in the examination and qualify for the palace examination, you will have the capital to stand in front of me."
The examination is a major examination for scholars across the country who have passed the provincial examination to take part in the capital city.
Only the top ten in the general examination can be called Jinshi, and only these ten Jinshi are eligible to enter the palace examination. The emperor will personally set the examination questions and compete to determine the number one, second and third place.
Now it is impossible for Emperor Daxing to preside over the next imperial examination, so Li Chen must do it himself.
Therefore, Li Chencai said that Hou Yushu was qualified to speak to him only after he entered the palace examination.
But Hou Yushu obviously misunderstood.
"I dare to ask you, brother, you have such a loud tone and regard the world's talented people as nothing. Since you are so sure that you can enter the top ten of the examination, you must not be an unknown person. Please give me your name!"
