Father Lin wanted to protect his family, so he naturally mentioned it a few times when working with Father Yang, but unfortunately it didn't end well for him.
Yang Wenyuan said solemnly, "You should educate your son properly and not lose the dignity of a scholar. Zhiyuan means well, but does that mean Bowen has bad intentions? If you want to please the capital, you don't have to be so nice and flattering in front of me."
When the boss is speaking, the people below can only listen. Father Lin muttered twice, and finally left with a sigh without saying anything.
The Yang family is superior to the Lin family, and his son is the most promising person to pass the imperial examination in Qinghe Prefecture. If Yang Cheng enters the court as an official again, what will his Lin family mean to him? There is no point in getting into trouble.
Father Lin knew the truth, and Yang Cheng also knew it. It would have been fine if they hadn't known that there were similar people in the world. Now that they knew it, their hearts felt like they were burning on fire, and they couldn't fall asleep at night.
He knew that Lin Su had left the person outside, but it was not appropriate to go looking for him in a high-profile manner, otherwise he would get into trouble for no reason. Even the previous visit to Lin's house had caused him to be reprimanded by his father.
They didn't stop until he explained that he would not actually do anything sexual.
If he really found the person, he would naturally not do that thing to insult the man in the capital. Replacing him with a young waiter would be a real humiliation. He just wanted to keep a similar one nearby so that people would remember him.
And when he thought about what Lin Su might do to that person, he became anxious and angry.
"He's just a servant. If force doesn't work, try soft tactics. Just pay more money to buy him off." Someone gave Yang Cheng some advice.
Yang Cheng thought this was feasible, but the people he sent didn't even enter the Lin Mansion. The servants only said that Lin Su was punished to stay indoors and it was not allowed to be seen.
Since Lin Su couldn't come out, he couldn't stay with that man. Yang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, but he felt that he missed him more. Whenever he thought about the scene of coming out of the Imperial Examination Hall, he felt that no one could compare to that man in terms of elegance and grace.
If we could serve as officials in the same court in the future and have a conversation, my life would not be in vain.
It was twenty days later when Lin Su came out again. As soon as he was released from confinement, people from the Yang family came to his door anxiously to invite him.
Lin Su didn't refuse, but as soon as he sat down at the restaurant, a thousand taels of silver were placed in front of him. Yang Cheng said, "Brother Zhiyuan, it was Bowen who offended me last time. Later, I learned that you meant well, and I really admire you. But I heard that you don't have much assets, so I'm afraid you can't make good arrangements for him..."
Lin Su continued, "Brother Yang, you are so kind. Could it be that all this silver is here to help me? If so, I will accept it without hesitation."
Yang Cheng choked at his words. Seeing Lin Su stand up, he quickly stopped him and said, "No, this silver is used to redeem Qingxi's indenture. You spent three hundred taels, and I will give you one thousand taels. Leave him in my care. I will not touch him. Please rest assured, Brother Lin."
Lin Su smiled: "Since you won't touch him, it doesn't matter where you put him, right?"
Yang Cheng paused, waved his hand to let the servants retreat, and said, "Let's not mince words. Since you know my feelings, I'm just a young man you don't have any feelings for. Why bother to make things difficult for our Yang family?"
If there were no tasks assigned by the system, such things would be as common as cattle hairs in this era, and Lin Su would not care at all, let alone pay attention to them. But since he knew about it and redeemed the person when he saw him, the task must be completed.
"I'm not trying to make things difficult for your Yang family. If I take him to the Shangshu Mansion, I'll get at least three thousand taels of silver as a gift." Lin Su said with emotion, "I can also get a favor from the Shangshu Mansion. In any case, it's more valuable than giving it to Brother Yang. How can it be difficult?"
Yang Cheng had never felt that he was so sharp-tongued when he had been with him before. Since soft tactics didn't work, he could only use hard tactics.
Yang Cheng sat down and said, "But we are in Qinghe Prefecture now, and my Yang family is on good terms with the prefect. Whether you can leave this area is still uncertain. Don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit!"
Lin Su looked at him without panicking. Instead, he smiled and sat aside, saying, "Brother Bowen, this is more like a decent person. Just say what you want. It's really awkward to beat around the bush."
Yang Cheng frowned: "Are you willing to give in?"
"I don't want to." Lin Su refused directly.
Yang Cheng's expression was truly ugly this time. He felt as if he had been fooled by the man in front of him. "Lin Su, although my Yang family is only one level higher than your father's at present, when I enter the court as an official in the future, do you really want to make the entire Lin family suffer?"
"Master, Master, I got it, I got it!!!"
Someone outside was shouting, which immediately made the whole restaurant lively.
“Who got hit?!”
"Someone from Qinghe Prefecture has also won. This is great news!"
"It's obvious that he's a servant of the Yang family. What place did he get?"
"A total of 300 people were selected, and our young master is ranked 96th."
"Great!!! You are worthy of being the talented scholar of Qinghe Prefecture."
"There are so many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in places like the capital, and getting 96th place is already an outstanding achievement. The key lies in the palace examination."
"Congratulations!"
There was a burst of congratulations in the restaurant. The waiter announced and went into the private room. Several people followed behind him and congratulated Yang Cheng.
"Successfully getting it right the first time. Young Master Yang is truly extraordinary."
"Don't break off contact in the future."
"Congratulations, Brother Bowen!"
Yang Cheng straightened his sleeves, no longer showing any of his previous aggressiveness. He bowed modestly and said, "Thank you for your compliments, my blog still has a lot to offer."
Everyone praised him, and Yang Cheng simply left Lin Su aside, obviously no longer taking him seriously.
Amidst the clamor, another person rushed over, squeezed through the crowd and shouted, "Master Zhiyuan, the master wants you to go back!"
"Don't push us. Can't you see we are all busy? Why are you making trouble?"
"What's the emergency?"
"It seems that something happened in the Lin Mansion. Brother Zhiyuan should go back." Yang Cheng smiled and looked at him deeply, obviously planning to discuss today's matter another day.
Lin Su glanced at the servant and said with a smile, "Why are you so anxious? You should have told me."
The servant said with a face full of joy, "Master Su is delighted. You have won the first place in the imperial examination. The court has specially sent officials to congratulate you. Master asked you to return quickly."
The servant's voice was not loud among the crowd, but as soon as he finished speaking, those who had just gathered around Yang Cheng to congratulate him were all stunned, and there was silence for a while.
Yang Cheng looked at Lin Su in disbelief and cried out, "How is this possible?!"
