Li Xun saw that his master was a little nervous before, but now he was not. He asked doubtfully, "Headmaster, can't we do this?"
"Yes, as long as you bring the Zhang family, you can do it. Remember, don't leave the Zhang family behind. Whatever the Zhang family says, the Little Prince will do. Don't worry."
The middle-aged man knew that with the participation of the Zhang family, there was no need to worry. It did not matter whether they could make a ship that year. With the ability of the Zhang family, they would not lose out.
Li Xun saw that his master supported him, so he said, "Headmaster, I have a good relationship with Xiao Bao of the Zhang family. How can I leave them behind? He helped me in the past, and now I help them. When I have a fief, I will find a way to get Zhang Xiaobao's father to be an official there. I will protect them and make my fief as prosperous as Sanshui County.
Teacher, do you see? The people in Sanshui County are different from before. They are wearing better clothes. In the county town, the people are willing to spend money to buy things. When I went out today, I saw those people digging the river. They even brought their own food. When they were tired, they were peeling eggs when they were resting. They peeled four eggs at one time. That's not bad. "
Li Xun said, his hands moving as if his family was living a good life. The middle-aged man looked at Li Xun and sighed, "Little Prince, in the future, if you have something like this, you should talk to your superiors. Don't do it yourself. Your status … Alas!"
Li Xun heard his master's words and was stunned. He squeezed out a smile and said, "Headmaster, I know. I can be a free and unfettered Marquis. Maybe I can be a free and unfettered Prince in the future. I won't fight for it, and I don't dare to. My uncle built a big yard next to the palace for my father and others to live there.
As long as he goes up the stairs, he can see everything in the yard. Brothers are so close that they can see each other at any time. How dare I destroy this warmth? Don't you think so, Headmaster? "
As Li Xun spoke, his smile disappeared, revealing a bitter expression.
The middle-aged man stood up, patted Li Xun on the shoulder and said, "Little Prince has grown up. It's good that you can think like this. Follow Zhangjia Zhuangzi and help the Zhang Family and Wang Family more in the future. Especially when some people who are not easy to deal with want to bully them, as long as the Little Prince can do it, I can guarantee that the Little Prince will live a carefree life.
Didn't the Little Prince bring back a book of nature? Read it carefully. When you have nothing to do, go find Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan and tell them about the things in the book. When the Little Prince has learned everything, there will naturally be new books for the Little Prince to read. "
Hearing his master mention Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, Li Xun became happy again. He no longer regarded them as ignorant children, but as friends of equal status. Sometimes, only Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan dared to talk to him about certain things. The others were afraid of him and stayed far away or respectfully did not dare to speak to him.
He always felt that when he was with Xiaobao and Wang Juan, he was not the one taking care of them. Instead, it was them who treated him like a child. The two children had always been steady and steady in their actions and conversations. The master behind them was really amazing.
Unfortunately, even if he learned all the skills, he still did not dare to have any ideas about Imperial Uncle. The Xuanwu Gate could not withstand the next time. The ground there seemed to be dyed red with blood. Every time he passed by there, he would feel a cold breeze blowing over.
When the middle-aged man saw Li Xun pondering and did not speak, he thought that he had taken things too hard. He advised again, "Little Prince, in fact, sometimes some positions are not as good as you think. Now the Little Prince does not have to worry. When you have a fief in the future, just like what the Little Prince said, move the Zhang Family and Wang Family there and give them more benefits."
"Ah? Ah! Teacher, I still have to write a few letters. Zhang Xiaobao's father has arrived in the capital. I can't wait until the exam to help him find someone. His family took out a lot of money to mediate. The people who should have given me money actually want me to give them money. They took my money but did not do anything. I will make them regret being born in this world. "
Li Xun had already accepted his fate. As long as he had more money, he could live a comfortable life. He did not care about other things. He just remembered that he had given away the money sent by the Zhang family. Now it was time to play a role.
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the middle-aged man. "Little Prince, if you want to write a letter, just write it here. Let me see. Zhang Zhong is actually destined to pass the exam, but the arrangement of the ranking is uncertain. The Zhang family has already paved the way, not just for you, Little Prince."
"There are others? Why don't they believe me? "Li Xun was a little unhappy.
"It's not that they don't believe in Little Prince. It's just that the Zhang family does things properly. This time, Zhang Zhong's ranking is estimated to be in the top three. Even if he is not the top scorer, he has to be the third best. In the four prefectural roads of the capital and in every restaurant and inn, people read Zhang Zhong's poems.
According to the people who came back from there, Cheng Lingxiang and Cheng Anran have already helped find a lot of people. The Zhang family has more than 20 shops in the capital. The most powerful ones are the Savant's Restaurant and the Joy House. Every day, there are officials who go there to eat and drink for free.
As long as Zhang Zhong does not make any big mistakes, those officials will not dare to not flatter him. This is the power of the Zhang family. They spend money everywhere just for the exam.
In this way, the Little Prince's side will be much more relaxed. Those people that the Little Prince found will naturally take advantage of the situation. Some of the money was actually left for the Little Prince, but the Little Prince gave it all away. "
The middle-aged man explained the various relationships to Li Xun. Li Xun liked to listen to this kind of thing the most. He listened attentively and said, "How can I take their money? They have already given me a lot of benefits Between the Clouds and the Water. The Minister of Revenue, Bi Xu, said that the book of nature is a priceless treasure.
Xiao Bao can give such a good thing to me. If I take their family's money to do things, then what am I? I will do it now. "
"Well, even if the Little Prince does not say these things, they should know that the people of the Zhang family are not bad at all. As long as they show the Little Prince this favor, they will not harm the Little Prince. The people there are the real killers.
Bi Xu is now here. Haha, he can also teach that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan. I heard that he was sick when he was in the capital, but he recovered when he came here. Tuqiao Village is also a blessed place. Well, it seems that he will also help Zhang Zhong to get that ranking. I will personally go and ask later. At that time, the Little Prince can talk to him. "
When the middle-aged man heard Li Xun mention Bi Xu, he immediately thought of the ability of the Zhang family. Anyone who came here with some ability would have to help them. Otherwise, they would not be the Zhangjia Zhuangzi that many people did not dare to make trouble.
Li Xun was about to write a letter. Hearing this, he looked up and said, "Ah? Minister Bi will also help? Oh, right. When I sent the nature book, he said that he was at a disadvantage this time. He said that he was cheated by helping others. Haha. "
"Haha!" The middle-aged man also laughed. He was happy to see a third-rank minister being at a disadvantage.
"This is Zhangjia Zhuangzi's ability. Although he is at a disadvantage, he is still happy. It seems that I have to go and ask now. The Little Prince is not in a hurry to write."
The middle-aged man was about to leave after he finished speaking. Unexpectedly, Li Cheng suddenly came from the yard and reported, "Little Prince, Teacher, Minister Bi sent a message. He said that it was from Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao."
"What message? Tell me." The middle-aged man asked curiously.
"Riding the wind and galloping horses, seeing all the flowers in Chang 'an in one day." Li Cheng said the two sentences.
"Ah? Sure enough, they want Zhang Zhong to enter the highest place. "Li Xun understood when he heard the two sentences.
"Good, what a good 'riding the wind and galloping horses, seeing all the flowers in Chang' an in one day. '" The middle-aged man praised and said to Li Xun, "Little Prince, you know how to write it, right?"
"Got it, I'll write it now. With so many people helping him, it would be incomprehensible if he didn't get into the top three. I'll write another letter to Imperial Uncle and my father. This time, the Imperial Examinations have been decided. If Zhang Zhong isn't the top scorer, then he'll be the third. Nothing else will do. Oh right, there's also the Wang Family.
Li Xun reacted. Now he was not worried. With so many people helping, as long as Zhang Zhong was not too bad, there would be no problem.
When the middle-aged man heard about the Wang family, he frowned and said, "Little Prince, don't write a letter to the Wang family. If they are willing to help, it is their problem. If they are not willing to help, it does not matter. If Little Prince really writes it, he will offend the Zhang family. The Zhang family does not need the pity of others, especially the Wang family.
When Wang Qiaoer came, she did not have any dowry, nor did she have a servant girl accompanying her. Now that the Zhang family has set the trap, how can they accept the Wang family's kindness? The Zhang family wants to use this imperial examination to tell the Wang family that the Zhang family does not need others and is independent. "
"I see. I understand. The Wang family must be regretting it now." Li Xun understood after thinking about it.
"Not only are they regretting it, but they also have the intention to kill. The news just came back today. When Zhang Zhong disembarked in the capital, the Wang family sent people to pick him up, but they wanted to suppress him. In the end, they sent 12 taels of luxurious carriages representing 12 shops. There were more than 100 people, and the carpet was spread all the way to the carriage.
There's also that bamboo pole with the goldfish lantern hanging from it. There's no one more impressive than Zhang Zhong. As soon as he arrived at the pier, there were people surrounding him from all sides to help him change his clothes. Now, almost everyone in the capital knows about the incident at the pier. "
The middle-aged man added.
Li Xun opened his eyes wide in surprise. "Doesn't that mean that even if Zhang Zhong becomes the top scorer, it won't be troublesome? Okay, then I will write a letter like that. Impressive. The Zhang family actually arranged all this. I really want to meet that expert. Even if he doesn't teach me, it would be good to see him. "
