Everyone just raised their glasses when they stopped in mid-air. Song Chi was slightly startled, thinking that it was true that as soon as you mention Cao Cao, he will appear.
Han Yuanzheng knocked on the door and came to pay his respects at this time, only for the purpose of making a bet for tomorrow.
He was anxious!
Before Shen Chong could speak, Song Chi said directly: "Please tell Han Yuanzheng to come to the gate of Shen Mansion at noon tomorrow. It's too early now."
After saying that, Song Chi asked again: "My Lord, is it okay for me to reply like this?"
"Of course it's possible."
Shen Chong smiled and said, "It's you who made the bet with Han Yuanzheng. It's all up to you."
"I offer a toast to the Marquis."
"Come on, you've avenged the Shen family's anger, so I should respect you."
The more Shen Chong looked at Song Chi, the more he liked him. Perhaps this boy could really achieve great things in the future. If so, marrying his daughter to him wouldn't be a bad idea...
But the premise is that he can withstand the Han family's difficulties...
The atmosphere here was lively with people toasting each other, but outside the mansion, Han Yuan was breathing out cold air and stamping his feet.
He also brought four servants and valuable gifts. It would be better to bow his head now than to be embarrassed tomorrow. Although he was extremely reluctant, Han Yuanzheng still gritted his teeth and came.
"Squeak."
The door of the mansion opened a crack, and a head popped out from it.
"Song Shutong said... that you should come on time at noon. It's too early now."
The servant who delivered the message was arrogant and the news of the bet spread widely throughout the two counties and one city, to the point where almost everyone knew about it.
The servants of the Shen family naturally knew about it and have installed it now.
"What did you say?"
Han Yuanzheng's expression changed and he clenched his hands into fists.
"Didn't you hear clearly?"
The servant shouted again, "Song Shutong asked you to come back tomorrow at noon. It's too early now..."
This servant is obviously not well educated and I don’t know how to address him. Although he is called a book boy, he has the aura of my master.
He closed the door right after he finished shouting.
"Bang!"
The sound of the door closing made Han Yuanzheng's head buzz.
Song Shutong must be Song Chi, how dare he say such things?
You really gave him face, didn't you?
Han Yuanzheng couldn't help cursing, and after venting his anger, he took a deep breath and said, "Keep knocking!"
But this time, even the person who was supposed to help him pass the message didn't come out.
“Damn it!”
“Damn it!”
Han Yuanzheng was shaking with anger. He could see that the Shen family and Song Chi were determined...
It's late at night.
Han Yu rushed to the official post station without stopping. He wanted to visit the female commander Liang Qingwu to see if he could ask her to come forward and end the bet in a decent manner.
His son hadn't even seen the Shen family, not even the servant boy...
Han Yu's face was gloomy. Even if the Han family wanted to retaliate, it would be after they had humiliated themselves. There was no point in it other than venting their anger.
This bet had already spread throughout Ning'an City, and with many powerful people as witnesses, the Han family had no choice but to accept the agreement... The only other option was to settle the matter privately with the parties involved.
There was no one over there, so Han Yu had no choice but to come to find Liang Qingwu. He knew that the female commander's words would definitely be effective. The Shen family would listen, and so would the servant.
"It's inappropriate to disturb you so late at night. I have something important to discuss with the female commander... Please pass it on."
Han Yu stuffed a large silver ingot into the hands of a guard.
"This is not allowed in the army." The guard did not take the silver ingot and turned to go in to pass the message. He came out in a moment.
Han Yu hurried over and asked, "Would you like to see me, Commander-in-Chief?"
"The female commander said she would be at the gate of the Shen Mansion at noon tomorrow..."
This sentence made Han Yu's face darken instantly. How could he not understand that this was asking his son to fulfill the bet.
"Also... the female commander said you can take revenge on Song Chi in any way you want, but you can't take his life or harm his family."
The guard said calmly, "The female commander said this isn't a discussion, it's a warning!"
Han Yu's face turned even darker.
They all checked Song Chi's background and knew that Song Chi's mother died early, his father was an old man who died of illness very early, and he grew up in his uncle's house since he was a child.
He has only a few relatives.
With the Han family's status in Ning'an Prefecture, they can easily deal with this family. Even Han Yu has already had such an idea.
Liang Qingwu issued this warning only after thorough investigation, indicating that she was serious.
But she ignored Song Chi. What did this mean? Was she using the Han family as a whetstone?
Han Yu was extremely angry, but he had to take it seriously. He dared not underestimate the female commander of the Northern Army, the Marquis of Wu'an of the Great Zhou, the number one person in the military today. This girl was only in her twenties.
Why can't the Prime Minister come forward? With him putting pressure on the Shen family, I don't believe they dare to disobey.
But they just watched and did nothing, and even made sarcastic remarks.
What a son of the Prime Minister! He is nothing but a waste!
Han Yu cursed Song Ming in his heart, and was also dissatisfied with Song Shiwen.
You take the money and you want the reputation, but when it comes to doing things, you don't care about anything else.
Is it true that my son can only endure humiliation?
Han Yu murmured, his face distorted.
…
The next day, early morning.
The gorgeous morning light is shining, and the white clouds in the sky are floating softly and melodiously, indicating that it will be good weather.
As the sun was rising, there were already cars and horses and a constant stream of people outside the examination hall.
Today is the day when the county exam results are announced. Many candidates and students are waiting in advance, and there is a lot of discussion.
"Brother Yang, are you confident you can pass the county exam this year?"
"The county exam questions are actually patchwork questions. I don't even understand the meaning of the questions, so how can I pass?"
"Yeah, why would there be a question about cutting and connecting? It's really too difficult."
Many candidates wailed, and suddenly someone asked, "Can you guess why there was a question about cutting and connecting?"
"Need I say more? It's all because of that Shen family servant. He made a bet with the young master of the Han family, which led to such a difficult exam."
