Chapter 111: Passed the Imperial Examination
Closing the window, Xie Jian thought about something.
Although Li Hu and Da Wei had committed many evil deeds in the government, they were extremely loyal. He rescued their brothers from prison, and they would not betray him for this favor.
What he wants is not temporary reward and loyalty, he needs someone of his own.
Thinking of the words that Ah Heng had used to persuade him when he was about to kill Xie Changgen, she had used the love of parents and the loyalty of brother and sister-in-law to persuade him. Because of the existence of his family, he put away his murderous intention. Yes, there are many ways to solve the problem. How could he choose the worst one and cause pain to his living family again?
So he had to let Li Hu and Dayu start a family. With the bond of family, they would be more loyal to him, and he wouldn't have to worry about them betraying him.
After taking off his clothes and hanging them on the wooden beam, Xie Jian blew out the light and prepared to go to bed. Seeing Chen Heng comfortably occupying the entire bed, he frowned, then remembered that this guy had not even washed his face. He did take a bath before going to Jun Youlai Restaurant. So he pushed her in hard and then lay down to rest.
Just as he lay down, an arm reached out and hugged him.
She used to be wrapped in a quilt, but now every night he would be woken up several times by her messy hands and feet. Xie Jian sighed, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Chen Heng discovered that she slept particularly soundly after drinking, and she slept through the night.
When I got up, Xie Jian had already washed and dressed.
Shen Heng yawned and saw that only Xie Jian was there. She asked curiously, "Where's Mei'er?"
"She made a mistake and went to be punished." Xie Jian said lightly.
"Mei'er has always been cautious in her actions. What mistake did she make?" Shen Heng sat down to dress.
"Molested me."
"Huh?" Chen Heng turned and looked at him, thinking she had misheard.
Xie Jian recounted what happened yesterday and saw Ah Heng's expression of disbelief: "You don't believe it?"
Chen Heng turned back to dress up. "It's not that I don't believe it, but Mei'er could have foreseen that you'd pass the imperial examination and have a bright future, and wanted to seduce you? Then, in terms of status and position, isn't Master Meng more superior?"
"You will know why later." Xie Jian said, turned and walked out.
Why wait until later? Chen Heng glanced at the door again.
Just when Chen Heng finished breakfast and was about to go to the shop, the principal of Nanqi Academy unexpectedly arrived.
There were four students from Nanqi and ten students from the Xi Academy taking the exam. They were all taken by the academy's teachers to stay at the Meng Family Inn in Yuzhou. The dean probably came here to see the results.
"Xuanlang, how did you do in the exam this time?" The dean's cultivated manner as an old scholar made him look elegant and otherworldly, and he had the demeanor of a respected person.
However, he glanced at Xie Jian coldly, and only when he looked at Meng Xuanlang did his eyes show kindness and concern.
"The first two volumes were a bit difficult, but after I figured it out, it became a piece of cake." Meng Xuanlang pulled Xie Jian aside and said, "Master, Ajian can pass this time too."
The headmaster smiled and pulled Meng Xuanlang to the inner hall. "Qian, tell me how you solved the problem, especially the strategy questions at the end. Please tell me in detail."
Meng Xuanlang wanted to ask Xie Jian to go along, but the dean didn't say anything, so he was just dragged along.
Chen Heng looked at the headmaster with some anger. She had a strong impression of him when she first met him, and his attitude towards the Xie family was also a bit cold. As a highly respected headmaster, he shouldn't treat his students like this, and this time he was even more excessive.
"Didn't you say you were going to the shop? Why haven't you gone yet?" Xie Jian saw Chen Heng glaring at the departing figure of the headmaster with dissatisfaction, and the indifference in his eyes became a little warmer.
"What's the meaning of this mountain? Our Ajian," Chen Heng whispered, "is much better than Master Meng. Right?"
