Li Shanbao looked pale. There were many talents in Dahan Country every year. Of course, he knew that it was impossible. Su Qingtan really had the ability to be one of the top talents in Dahan Country.
When the palace examination ended, Su Qingtan would definitely become a rising star in Yunjing. At that time, not to mention one Baiwei Building, even if there were one hundred Baiwei Buildings, he might not be satisfied.
"Damn it. Why didn't I know that Su Qingtan was a hidden talent!"
Li Shanbao squatted down to pick up the notice and quickly told Li Wei to put away another letter. This letter was written by Su Qingtan to his family. It could be seen that Su Qingtan had grasped a certain power in the notice, which was beyond his control.
"Do you want to give the Baiwei Building to others?" Li Wei was very reluctant to give it up.
"You are silly!"
Li Shanbao scolded and snorted, "When the news spreads, even the Zhu Family will let go and let the Su Family monopolize the Baiwei Building. Do you think that Su Qingtan will still care about the Baiwei Building after he comes back? The Su Family will definitely move to Yunjing with Su Qingtan. We can't offend them. Now it is the right thing to try to make friends with the Su Family. I heard that Su Qingtan dotes on Su Li very much. Hurry to prepare for it. I will visit the Su Family in person! "
Li Shanbao's sudden visit naturally aroused Su Huanli's vigilance. But when he received the letter from Su Qingtan, he immediately reacted. He was ecstatic and a series of thoughts appeared in his mind.
These thoughts could be summed up in one sentence.
The Su Family would be completely prosperous!
"It's great. Master, Qingtan should be the first in the preliminary examination." The Second Madam's eyes turned red and she cried.
Su Huanli held the Second Madam and comforted her softly, "Why are you crying? Our son is successful. You should be happy!"
Su Huanli's tone was unprecedentedly gentle.
The Second Madam, Li Yuelian, was Su Qingtan's biological mother. A mother's status depended on her son's status. Li Yuelian's status in Su Huanli's heart immediately surpassed that of Zhu Yan and was only second to Su Qingtan. Even Su Li was pushed down to the third place.
On the second day, Li Shanbao posted the notice. The news that Su Qingtan won the first in the preliminary examination immediately aroused public opinion in the Dasu Town. Even the scandal of the Yang Family was temporarily suppressed. Everywhere, people could hear the name "Su Qingtan".
"Big Brother won first place in the preliminary test?"
Su Li was shocked by the news. In the previous life, the Eldest Brother took part in the preliminary examination one year later, but he didn't even enter the top three. Although he passed the second examination, he missed the chance to enter the National Academy. He couldn't compare with the young talents in Yunjing and ranked last in the imperial examination.
Who would have thought that in this life, Big Brother would obtain the title of first place in the preliminary examination just one year earlier.
"It seems that the talents from Qinghe County participating in the preliminary examination this year are indeed not as outstanding as next year. But it doesn't affect my plan. You still need to stay in the Sinology Academy for another year … "
Su Li tapped the table with her slender fingers and looked through the window into the distance. It was Yunjing, the capital of the Dahan Country.
In her previous life, she vaguely heard people talking about his background. In this life, he should be there, but she did not know what his identity was …
Time flew by unconsciously. Su Li's daily schedule was full, and she had no time to rest or be lazy. She was also happy. In the past half a month, she had memorized the medicinal materials that Qi Xianqing asked her to identify. She ran the Nothing Unusual every day and acted as a manservant of the Baicao Tang. Except for Qi Xianqing, no one knew Su Li's real identity.
These days, the Zhu Family was not stupid. Like the Yang Family, they completely let go of the Baiwei Building and promised that all the profits would belong to the Su Family. Every day, there were noble families visiting them. Even Su Zipei, who had been despised by others, came to propose marriage. They just wanted to have a relationship with Su Qingtan.
Now Su Huanli's vision was high. Of course, he would not agree. He also expected his two daughters to go to Yunjing and marry into nobles. How could he take a fancy to these small families in the countryside?
"Well, I didn't expect that Li Yuelian's son was so promising!"
Zhu Yan patted the table lightly and gnashed her teeth. Now her status in the Su Family was low. Su Huanli also didn't come to her for several months. Those maids looked at her in a strange way.
"However, I am worried that I can't go to Yunjing to inquire about the news. When Zipei returns to the family with the jade pendant, even if I am only an adoptive mother, no one in the Su Family can compare with my identity. "
In the past half a year, she almost didn't come out to stir up trouble. She let Su Li develop freely. The progress of the jade pendant was accelerated a lot. Just a few days ago, she had found that only the members of the royal family were qualified to have this kind of jade pendant. Maybe her daughter could become a princess of the dynasty!
In the blink of an eye, the whole Dasu Town fell into silence.
In front of an inconspicuous yard in the forest outside the town, a man in black stood respectfully and quietly. His eyes were bright and full of unprecedented expectation.
"The childe is coming. I don't know whether the file I prepared can satisfy the childe."
When the man in black was in a perturbed mood, an ordinary carriage stopped in front of the yard. The man in black immediately saluted and said, "I am Black Star. Welcome to the childe!"
The cold-looking young man in the coachman's clothes jumped out of the carriage. His eyes were as cold as lightning. His cultivation was not worse than that of Fang Yuan. Such an excellent young man seemed to be a servant of the "childe" mentioned by the man in black.
When the coachman saw the handsome young man, his pupils shrank immediately. He bowed his head and said respectfully, "The Head of the Building Proprietor is also here."
The cold-looking young man nodded slightly and lifted the curtain of the carriage. A face with a jade-bone mask appeared. At the same time, a breeze blew through Black Star's face. The latter seemed to be hit hard and groaned. But he was not angry. Instead, he was surprised and said, "The childe has broken through again!"
The thin lips under the jade-bone mask were raised. A pair of deep eyes seemed to contain the boundless starry sky, which made people unconsciously immersed in it.
"Let's go in first."
With a low and magnetic voice, the air slightly vibrated and was filled with pressure. Black Star immediately woke up and welcomed them in.
Black Star served the prepared tea. The jade-bone young man sat down, and the cold-looking young man stood aside. Black Star suddenly didn't dare to sit down. He respectfully bowed like a servant.
After a while, the cold-looking young man said, "How is the situation in the Qinghe Province?"
Black Star quickly presented the file. The cold-looking young man put it away without looking at it. He had always been responsible for killing. There were others who were responsible for consulting files and strategizing.
"Black Star, you said that there was an extraordinary woman in the Dasu Town."
The jade-bone mask young man opened his lips slightly. There was a strange fluctuation in his voice, which showed that he was very interested in the extraordinary woman in Black Star's words.
"Yes!" Black Star immediately told him what he had seen and heard. He also talked about Glutinous Rice Balls with Sesame and Beggar's Chicken, which he had never heard of.
The cold-looking young man nodded and said, "Master, you have made a lot of delicacies, but you have never heard of Glutinous Rice Balls with Sesame and Beggar's Chicken. I'm afraid that it is just a coincidence that Su Li can make Zongzi."
The jade-bone mask young man didn't speak, but he was very shocked in his heart.
Zongzi, Glutinous Rice Balls with Sesame, Beggar's Chicken … Black Star and Ling Mo didn't know, but it didn't mean that he didn't know. Because these … were the local delicacies of the Hua Nation on the blue planet before his time travel!
"Is it possible that this woman also came from the earth like me?"
The jade-bone mask young man was lost in thought. The cold-looking young man was surprised. For the first time, he saw the master was lost in thought because of a woman. Even the holy girl of the cult desperately threw herself at him, the master didn't waver at all.
"Interesting … Ling Mo, arrange it. I want to observe it in person."
The tone of the jade-bone mask young man was irrefutable. The cold-looking young man could only swallow his words. They came to the Dasu Town not only for the files and Su Li. If only these two trifles, how could the noble master come in person?
"Master is suddenly interested in Su Li. Don't delay the business." The cold-looking young man sighed and didn't speak.
Black Star understood the meaning of the childe and immediately asked, "Should we inform the branch of the holy cult?"
"This trip is confidential. Don't tell the people of the branch to avoid trouble."
The jade-bone mask young man gave an order and immediately stepped out. It seemed that he had crossed a distance of several meters. The cold-looking young man followed him and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"The progress of the childe's Xuangong is really terrible. I can't see it clearly."
Black Star stood at the door and sighed in his heart. It was really infuriating to compare with others.
There were three religions and nine schools in the Jianghu, and the hierarchy was strict. The Wulin composed of ordinary martial arts was the lowest level of the Jianghu. This kind of people usually defined their strength by their years of practice.
However, no matter how powerful the martial arts master was, he could only stop at the acquired third hurdle in his life. This was the limitation brought by the practice method.
If he practiced Xuangong, he could reach the acquired first hurdle as long as he could get started. He could save countless years of hard work and soar to the sky. The Jianghu composed of masters of Xuangong was also called the martial arts circle.
Black Star thought that he had reached the acquired fourth hurdle as soon as he turned 18 this year. He was an extraordinary silver card killer of the Xuelou Cult. However, he knew that his insignificant cultivation was far from enough in front of his young master.
In the evening, the cool breeze was blowing. Su Li came out of the Baicao Tang and felt a little cold.
"No wonder … It will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in half a month."
Su Li sighed in a low voice. Maybe Qi Xianqing saw that she had worked too hard recently and let her go back earlier. At this moment, the evening market in the Dasu Town was about to start. Many people were carving melons to make lanterns to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival in half a month.
"Apart from the power of the family, the Dasu Town is rare to be stable and peaceful. Maybe this is the reason why Qi Xianqing chose to live in seclusion here."
Su Li walked on the street with a rare peaceful and warm mood. This kind of feeling was not easy to come by. She also cherished it. Driven by her thoughts, she shuttled through the market like a butterfly.
Suddenly, she looked back and saw two young figures under the lanterns not far away. The one in front was holding a folding fan and smiling. Although he was fifteen or sixteen years old, his handsome face was embedded with a pair of eyes as deep as the starry sky, which made people unable to see his depth.
Behind the handsome boy, there was a cold boy with a stiff smile. He didn't smile for many years, so he smiled very reluctantly.
This face …
Su Li unconsciously stopped and stared at the boy who came to her. The light and shadow around her seemed to be infinitely far away. Only the sound of her heartbeat could be heard.
"Master, is it really appropriate for you not to wear a mask?"
Following the childe, Ling Mo helplessly whispered. The boy smiled and shook his head, "It's rare to come to this border town to relax and be carefree. Do you even care about this?"
"Master, I don't mean that."
Ling Mo hurriedly waved his hand. But he saw the childe in front of him suddenly stopped, which almost made him bump into him.
