Xujia Village has been visited by many tourists these days, and the consumption is not very high. Generally, anyone who has enough food and clothing can come here to visit.

Inside the Baohe City Governor's Mansion.

"Yao'er, why did you come back so soon? How did things go?" asked the prefect Lu.

"Dad, don't mention it! The Xu family is very arrogant. I tried to win them over with nice words and lowered their attitude, but I didn't expect that they not only didn't appreciate it, but also beat me up. Not only was I beaten up, but my jaw was also broken." Lu Yao still felt a faint pain in his jaw.

The governor of Lu said, "How can this be possible! Didn't you tell them who I am?"

Lu Yao said, "Of course I told them. I even moved out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but they didn't care at all. They even said that my uncle and Master Lan were a dandy father and son, and that even the Prime Minister's Mansion didn't dare to offend him easily."

Upon hearing this, Governor Lu asked in confusion, "How dare a peasant like you be so arrogant? Yao'er, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Lu Yao said, "How is that possible? That is indeed the Xu family, there is no mistake. However, the person who said this does not seem to be from the Xu family. He seems to be very familiar with the affairs of the capital."

The governor of Lu said, "Tell me what this man looks like!"

Lu Yao said, "He's a young man, probably in his teens, quite handsome. The material of the clothes he's wearing is not something that ordinary people can afford."

"That's all? Think about it carefully, is there anything else special?"

Lu Yao rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then suddenly said, "Oh! By the way, I asked him to hang a jade pendant around his waist. It looks like it has the Chinese character 'Su' on it."

The governor of Lu murmured, "Su..." Suddenly he seemed to remember something and stood up suddenly.

"Yao'er, can you see clearly?"

Lu Yao said, "Yes, I definitely didn't see it wrongly. He approached me and kicked me several times. I accidentally saw that there was indeed a word "Su" on it."

The governor of Lu said, "No wonder! To be able to say such a thing, and to have the surname Su, only that family could be!"

Lu Yao asked doubtfully, "Dad, which family is that?"

Lu Taishou said: "The Taifu Mansion in the capital, the teacher of the current emperor."

Lu Yao was shocked and said, "Dad, this can't be true? How could someone from the Taifu Mansion be involved with the Xu family?"

Governor Lu was not quite sure either, and guessed, "Perhaps their purpose is the same as ours."

"Dad, why does the Prime Minister ask us to win over Xu Wenwu?" Lu Yao asked.

"It's not just Xu Wenwu. Anyone who performs well in the exam this time is our target, but Xu Wenwu is the best one." said the prefect Lu.

"Dad, why did the Prime Minister do this?" Lu Yao asked.

"I don't know, I guess he wants to recruit talents for his own use! Not only me, but even the fourth-rank officials who are close to the Prime Minister's Mansion have received orders from the Prime Minister." said the prefect Lu.

"Then Dad, what should we do now?" Lu Yao asked.

After hearing his son's question, Taishou Lu said with a look of regret, "You've gotten yourself into trouble this time. The Prime Minister is trying to win you over secretly, and you've just happened to run into someone from the Su family. It won't be long before Taifu Su finds out. We must inform the Prime Minister as soon as possible."

Lu Yao felt extremely aggrieved. Not only was he beaten, but he was also scolded by his father. He had no idea that the man would be from the Taifu Mansion.

"Master, Xujia Village has changed so much in the past few years." Ye Feng sighed as he drove the carriage.

Jing Chen opened the curtain a little, looked at the many people coming and going, and the earth-shaking changes in Xujia Village, and was a little surprised.

When the carriage arrived at the village entrance, it was stopped by a patrol team.

"Sir, I'm truly sorry. For all the guests coming here to play, the carriages must stop at the village entrance. Because there are many guests in the village, we are also responsible for the safety of our guests to prevent accidents. I hope you can forgive me."

"Master." Ye Feng asked for instructions.

Jing Chen said: "Get off and leave the carriage here."

"Yes, sir." Ye Feng said.

"Sir, please give me the reins. I'll help you set up your carriage. Here's your number plate. Just use it to pull the reins when the time comes."

Ye Feng took the wooden sign and put it in his arms.

The master and the servant walked towards the village.

"This young man is really handsome."

"Yes! This is the first time I've seen such a handsome young man."

"This young man looks like he's either rich or noble. His demeanor is definitely not that of an ordinary person."

As soon as Jing Chen stepped into the village, he attracted many people's attention.

There were also bold girls who flirted with Jingchen.

Jing Chen turned a blind eye, and Ye Feng followed behind him, also suffering from the baptism of everyone's gaze.

Finally, the two arrived at the door of Xu's house, and Jing Chen reached out and knocked on the door.

After a while, Uncle Fu limped open the door.

Seeing Jingchen, Uncle Fu was stunned for a moment and said, "Sir, who are you looking for?"

Jing Chen said, "I'm looking for Xu Linyue."

Uncle Fu was surprised. He had never seen this man before, so how could he be looking for a lady?

Uncle Fu said cautiously, "Please tell me your name, sir, so I can inform them."

"Jingchen."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment." Uncle Fu said and then closed the door again.

Ye Feng was speechless. His master had never been treated like this before. However, seeing his master's still calm expression, he said nothing.

When Su Chenyu heard the name Jingchen, she spat out a mouthful of tea, which happened to splash all over Cui Cancan.

"I'm sorry, Fatty, I didn't mean it." Su Chenguang said a little embarrassedly.
