Jin Xiangkang's expression was hard to describe. "Some other day...it could be any day."
He was just being polite, but you took it seriously.
"tasty!"
After eating another candy, Jin Xiangan smacked his lips and stuffed it into his arms, hiding it close to his body like a treasure.
"Hehe, next time, I will also bring delicious food for my sister."
Are you devoted to someone just because of a few candies?
Seeing his worthless smile, Jin Xiangkang held his forehead helplessly.
I am speechless.
If this little guy wasn't cut from the same mold as his father, he would have doubted whether he was his own brother.
…
After entering the city, Chu Yaoyao and his sister got off the carriage and walked slowly on the streets of Luozhou City.
Suddenly, a voice came from a teahouse not far away.
"Brother Han, how come you are free today? Didn't Lord Han ask you to help entertain the Second Prince?"
Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao immediately pricked up her ears.
[Is this, eating your own melon again? 】
Seeing that she was interested, Chu You turned around and walked straight into the teahouse.
As he walked, he said, "This one seems pretty good. How about we have some snacks and then continue shopping?"
Of course Chu Yaoyao had no objection and nodded quickly.
"good!"
Chu You found a seat close to those people and sat down, so close that there was only a screen between them.
"Come to think of it, we haven't even congratulated Brother Yunze on winning the first place in the imperial examination yet!"
As soon as these words were spoken, congratulations from the crowd rose one after another.
Hearing this, Chu Yaoyao widened her eyes slightly.
[The surname is Han, and the name is Yunze... Han Yunze?! ]
She puffed up her little face and rolled her eyes at the screen.
[Could he be the Han Yunze who cheated in the Spring Examination and later became a treacherous minister? ! ]
What cheating?!
The future traitor?!
Chu You almost overturned the table.
The people on the other side of the screen had already left in twos and threes, laughing loudly.
After the few people left, the waiter went over to clean up the mess, shaking his head and sighing as he did so.
"Really, eh!"
Chu You thought for a moment, then stood up and walked to the other side of the screen, and said to the waiter who was cleaning the table:
"Young man, I'm new to Luozhou City, and I don't know many people and things. I just heard that Mr. Han actually won the Li Yuan exam?"
Hearing this, the waiter's eyes flashed with disdain and he muttered softly.
"What is Jieyuan? Just his poor belly?"
Hearing this, Chu You's eyes flickered slightly, and a cold look appeared in his eyes.
Sure enough, there is something fishy! Just like Yaoyao said, some things can only happen zero times or countless times.
For example, cheating and plagiarism! How dare you! He pinched his palm tightly, took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and kept his expression normal.
"Brother, can you tell me about the Han family?"
Hearing this, the waiter's expression became complicated, cautious but also a little panicked, and he took two steps back.
"You, why are you asking about the Han family?!"
Chu You took out a small gold ingot from his arms, weighing about two taels.
"Brother, my brother and I have just arrived, so we want to find someone who is familiar with Luozhou to talk to, so as not to offend anyone in the future."
The waiter stared at the gold ingot in his hand, swallowed, and forced himself to look away.
"This young man is joking."
"I am just an ordinary citizen, and I only know some trivial matters. You have found the wrong person."
As he said this, he placed the dishes, pots and cups on the tray and prepared to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
Chu You took out two more gold ingots and said, "I hope you can help me."
The waiter was dazzled by the three gold bars.
Wow, these three gold ingots are enough for him to marry a wife, buy a few acres of good land, and live comfortably for a few years.
The waiter coughed heavily and looked around like a thief.
After realizing that no one was paying attention to this side, he thrust his hand forward suddenly.
The gold in Chu You's hand fell into his arms, and his hand was so fast that an afterimage was left.
After all, he was obliged to pay the money, so after receiving the money, the waiter's attitude became much warmer.
"You've asked the right person. Young Master Han often comes to our store, and I've heard a lot of things."
The two sat down and chatted. Chu Yaoyao felt bored, so she simply took A Shi to the street to play.
Chu You told her not to run too far, and then let her go.
In fact, this information could be detected from Yaoyao's thoughts, but he had also figured out some clues in these days.
It’s not without cost that Yaoyao gets these secret messages; it requires something called points.
He had no idea how to obtain that thing or how much the information cost.
But since I can't help, it's better to let her spend less.
Hearing a cold snort from the waiter, he came to his senses and listened carefully.
"In Luozhou City, other families are easy to deal with, but the Han family is the only one that we must not offend."
The waiter carefully covered his mouth with his hands and whispered, "That's the local emperor of our Luozhou City!"
Hearing this, Chu You raised one corner of his mouth, sneered, his eyes turned cold, and anger surged in his heart.
"Huh! Really?"
The waiter looked him over and said, "I think you are an honest and good man. I have something to tell you. Please don't betray me."
Chu You nodded, "Of course."
When the matter was mentioned, the waiter looked indignant.
"For this autumn exam, Governor Han got the scope of the exam questions from somewhere and had someone write down the answers in advance for his son to memorize!"
"Even so, the Han family was still worried, so they found those outstanding scholars in advance and either bribed them with a large sum of money or threatened them to prevent them from taking the exam or answering the questions randomly."
Not knowing what he was thinking of, the waiter shook his head with some regret, with a barely perceptible admiration in his tone.
"One scholar was quite proud and refused with righteous words. He even threatened to make the matter known to the world and expose their true colors."
"But he was beaten half to death by the Han family, and one arm and one leg were broken!"
"Bang!"
Chu You was furious. He slammed his fist on the table, his eyes dark and terrifying.
"How ridiculous! Do they still have any respect for the law?!"
…
Outside the teahouse, Chu Yaoyao took Ah Shi for a stroll on the street.
I saw a long queue in front of the dim sum shop, so it must be delicious. I bought some because I was tempted! The little things on the stall are quite unique, so I bought some!
In a short while, Ah Shi had a lot of things in his arms.
“Boom boom boom!”
The sound of a gong attracted Chu Yaoyao's attention, and at that moment, a strong man spewed out a tongue of fire.
"good!"
The area was soon filled with people.
"My fellow countrymen, those of us who have money can show our support with money, and those of us who don't can show our support with our presence!"
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
"Sister Ten, hurry up and watch the fun!"
Chu Yaoyao pulled A Shi and ran over there.
"Hey! Stop!"
This sudden voice made Chu Yaoyao slow down slightly, but then she thought again, she had just arrived and didn't know anyone, so it was definitely not someone calling her.
Thinking of this, she continued running in the direction of the circus.
Suddenly a maid caught up with them from behind and blocked their way.
Chu Yaoyao blinked.
It turns out it was really directed at her.
Several people came over, led by two little girls.
One of them, a girl about seven or eight years old, wearing a goose yellow jacket and skirt, pointed at Yaoyao.
A commanding tone.
"Give me your jade pendant!"
