poor family prodigal

Wang Yuan quickly explained: "Second brother, don't get me wrong. She was tied up by Yi Zhanghong in Xiantian. I passed by and rescued her, and she was brought to the county town along the way!"

Li Sansi sneered: "Do you think I'm a fool? There are five to six hundred bandits in the Tianshan Mountains. If she is really kidnapped, can you rescue her?"

Hu Mengying choked on her words.

No one would believe it unless they saw it with their own eyes.

Wang Yuan led ten people, not only rescued her, but also captured the second boss Hongye, extorted three thousand taels of gold, and in turn made the bandits cry.

Wang Yuan spread his hands: "Since you don't believe me, it's useless for me to explain!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

Li Sansi gritted his teeth: "When I return to Fu County, I will definitely tell Shihan about the good things you did in the county! Let's see if she will still be as devoted to you as before!"

Wang Yuan frowned: "Don't sow discord!"

"I……"

Just as Li Sansi was about to speak, a middle-aged man came over: "Brother Sansi, these two are!"

"Passers-by!"

Li Sansi walked away with a straight face, as if he was afraid that people would know about his relationship with Wang Yuan.

"Ha ha!"

Wang Yuan chuckled and shook his head.

This second brother-in-law did not recognize him at all, and still did not recognize him as the son-in-law of the Li family.

Hu Mengying comforted her: "Sir, with your ability, sooner or later the Li family will recognize you!"

Wang Yuan shook his head: "Actually, I don't care whether the Li family recognizes it or not. I just don't want to make things difficult for Shihan. After all, they are her family!"

Hu Mengying looked envious.

The young master considers sister Shihan so much, she is so happy.

Suddenly, the door of Wang's mansion opened, and a young man with a stern face came out.

"There's someone from the Wang family!"

"He's not from the Wang family, he seems to be Master Tongzhi. It's really him!"

"Tongzhi is the number one person under the mansion, why did he come to the Wang family to welcome guests!"

"Yan Tongzhi is Mr. Haitian's disciple, and he passed the Jinshi examination under his guidance!"

"Then why haven't we seen each other before? The Wang family has contacts with Yan Tongzhi!"

"It's not like you don't know that Mr. Haitian never sees any officials!"

Many scholars crowded forward!

When the traffickers and foot soldiers heard this, they immediately retreated with horrified expressions on their faces!

For people at the bottom, anyone in the government is scary, and if you can't deal with them, don't fight them!

Wang Yuan was surprised: "Do you know a very big official?"

He didn't understand the official system of Daye, and his previous experience was limited. He only knew about the county government establishment!

Hu Mengying said: "Tongzhi is an official of the fifth rank. He is the first person under the government. He is in charge of salt, grain, robbery, river defense, river engineering, water conservancy, cleaning up military records, and appeasing the people and barbarians in a county. Jiushan County has many things. Yanjing has a salt transport department, so if you know Tongzhi, you can buy salt."

Wang Yuan's eyes lit up: "Then let's go up too!"

In any case, this is also the Salt Transport Department, the nominal boss!

As long as you build a relationship and help pull the strings, things will be much easier to handle.

Understanding Wang Yuan's plan, Hu Mengying quickly followed.

Although the traders and lackeys left, there were still many scholars in front because of the Dinglongtai Poetry Club.

Hundreds of people were waiting in front, with Wang Yuan, Dahu and Hu Mengying at the end.

However, since there was an invitation, the three of them were not in a hurry, but waited patiently!

Many candidates also looked at Yan Tongzhi patiently, waiting for today's question.

Yan Xiu clasped his fists: "I've kept you waiting for so long!"

Three servants stood up, unfolded three large pieces of paper, and three questions appeared.

"One who is useless is a scholar."

"Heaven and earth are my heart, and my heart is heaven and earth."

"How does a foolish man become a sage?"

A group of scholars frowned in thought!

The vendors and footmen who were watching the excitement all left in confusion, and no one wanted to be confused again.

After all, I can’t even understand the question!

"What exactly does Mr. Haitian want to test us by asking these three questions?"

Hu Mengying frowned slightly. She was influenced by her father and read many books when she was young.

Now I’m looking at these three questions but I can’t figure them out!

Look at the group of Juren again, all of them have their brows furrowed and have no clue at all!

Even Li Sansi frowned, looking stumped!

"what!"

Looking at the title, Wang Yuan's eyes lit up.

Hu Mengying next to her was surprised and said: "Sir, have you mastered these three questions?"

Wang Yuan chuckled and waved: "Come over here!"

"Is this okay?"

Hu Mengying approached, Wang Yuan leaned in and whispered, hot breath sprayed on his neck, his pretty face immediately turned red, his whole body became hot, and he started to stutter when speaking.

She admired and believed Wang Yuan's courage and strategy, but she had doubts about his knowledge!

After all, knowledge depends on the imperial examination. Wang Yuan only passed the examination as a boy student, not even a scholar!

"I don't know either. Let's try it first. If it doesn't work, then show the invitation!"

Wang Yuan is really not sure!

His major is machinery and materials, and he has no research on traditional culture. However, he has taken some philosophy classes and memorized many professional terms.

These three questions made him feel a little familiar!

"also!"

Hu Mengying didn’t have high hopes, as there were so many candidates she hadn’t figured out yet!

Wang Yuan stood up and walked to Wang's Mansion: "Yan Tongzhi, I have the answer!"

Swish!

All eyes are focused.

"Who is this? You figured it out so quickly!"

"Looking unfamiliar, I don't think I've seen him before in the Juren circle!"

"He is a boy from our county who didn't even pass the exam!"

"A child dares to answer Mr. Haitian's question. How audacious!"

"Hey, young people today are willing to do anything to become famous!"

Upon hearing that Wang Yuan was just a child, a group of people shook their heads in disdain and stopped looking at him.

Tongsheng, scholar, and scholar are all very different from each other in terms of knowledge and rank!

"what are you doing?"

Looking at Wang Yuan passing by, Li Sansi scolded him in a low voice: "I don't know your knowledge yet, don't try to show off here, or you will be embarrassed!"

"Even if I am embarrassed, what does it have to do with the Li family?"

Seeing that his second brother-in-law was already speaking in this tone, Wang Yuan responded without any politeness!

For Shihan's sake, I let you do it once or twice, which is really embarrassing.

"you?"

Li Sansi frowned and choked!

Indeed, from beginning to end, the Li family never recognized Wang Yuan as their son-in-law.

Even if Wang Yuan made four sentences about the horizontal canal and proposed the strategy of demolishing the wall and spreading the land among the people!

He still felt that this 'brother-in-law' just had some small ideas and no real talent.

After all, even the scholar failed to pass the imperial examination.

"Please!"

Not looking down upon Wang Yuan because of his status as a child, Yan Fuzhu waved his hand and gave way to the gate.

A desk, pen, ink, paper and inkstone were placed there.

Wang Yuan raised his pen and waved his brush, and twelve large characters appeared on the paper like flying dragons and phoenixes!

Li Sansi in the audience shook his head: "With just these few words, even Yan Tongzhi can't pass the test, let alone Mr. Haitian!"

Many scholars also looked scornful, not believing that a child could answer Mr. Haitian's question without even thinking about it.

However, the next scene made everyone's eyes fly out!

"This! This! This!"

Looking at the twelve big characters, Yan Shu's eyes lit up. He didn't wait for the ink to dry, grabbed the paper and ran towards Wang's house like flying, dancing and shouting: "Teacher, teacher, there is an answer, there is an answer!"

"Uh!"

This dancing figure made everyone in the audience dumbfounded and looked at Wang Yuan in surprise.

What exactly did he write?

Yan Tongzhi, a second-ranked scholar and fifth-ranked scholar, was allowed to lose his composure to such an extent!

You must know that the second-in-command of Jiushan County is not a simple person in terms of knowledge and knowledge.

Hu Mengying was in disbelief: "Sir, are you really right?"

"That's fake!"

Erhu, who had always been relatively calm, couldn't help but said: "Brother Yuan's knowledge is admired by County Magistrate Zhao. What's so strange about answering three questions!"

Hu Mengying pursed her lips and chuckled!

In the eyes of the people in Dawang Village, there is nothing in this world that the young master cannot do!

"Teacher, the answer is out; Teacher, the answer is out!"

Waving the paper, Yan Tongzhi was as happy as a three-year-old child, running and shouting all the way, and sometimes couldn't help but jump a few times!

These twelve simple words convey the essence of the teacher's lifelong knowledge, and even go to a higher level, sublimating the teacher's knowledge!

If the teacher sees it, he will definitely approve it!

"Retro, it doesn't matter if you answer it, it's just three questions! After all, you are also a second-ranked scholar and a fifth-ranked scholar. Why are you so lacking in determination? Forget what I taught you. The most basic thing for a scholar is concentration. To The mountains collapse in front without changing color, the elk rises to the left without blinking, this is the basic concentration for success in reading. Calm down, calm down for the teacher!"

Seeing the dancing disciples, Wang Haitian scolded him with a straight face, and then slowly went to pick up the paper.

Over the years, he has asked too many questions around his own knowledge!

There is no real answer!

Even if there is an answer, it is not completely in line with what he wants, just a little bit.

Yan Fuzhu explained: "Teacher, this answer is unusual!"

"How unusual. I have been studying since I was three years old and have never seen any knowledge in the past forty-five years. Calm down, calm down for my teacher!"

Wang Haitian took over the control, glanced lightly, jumped up from the mat, and rushed out of the door like flying, forgetting to put on his shoes.

Yan Fushi was startled, then grabbed his cloth shoes and chased after him: "Teacher, I can't run away, you haven't put on your shoes yet!"

"And you're wearing crappy shoes!"

Wang Haitian ran barefoot: "Whoever wrote these three sentences, stop him quickly, don't let him run away!"

"teacher!"

Yan Xiuzhui pursed his lips and suppressed a smile: "Didn't you say that you should be calm as a person? Why are you so excited now... Oops!"

"You evil disciple, how dare you make fun of me!"

With a slap on the back of Yan Shu's head, Wang Haitian ran wildly out of the yard again!

Outside the Wang family gate!

Cong Yanhui took the paper and left.

All the people stood under the threshold, looking up at Wang Yuan inside the door, wondering what on earth he had written that could make Yan Tongzhi so excited.

"The answer he wrote, Mr. Haitian may not be able to see it in Yan Tongzhi's eyes!"

"Yes, Mr. Haitian once said that no one in the world understands his knowledge!"

"How much knowledge can he have as a child, but when a blind cat encounters a dead mouse!"

Since ancient times, literati have looked down upon each other, but a boy actually overwhelmed them. A group of people came to their senses and started questioning each other, but their eyes were still contemptuous.

"Yes, I know his knowledge well, there is no way I could fall into Mr. Haitian's eyes!"

Li Sansi clenched his fist heavily.

This 'brother-in-law' knowledge, which he had personally tested and taught, was really limited.

Although there have been changes now, Mr. Haitian is everyone, and he will never be in his eyes.

However, the next moment, the entire audience was stunned!

The barefooted Mr. Haitian rushed out, grabbed Wang Yuan and dragged him into the house, shouting: "Hurry, close the door quickly, don't let Mr. Haitian escape. Others please go back. The Wang family is closed today to thank guests. Entertain the little gentleman!”
