[Hey, brother, what's going on? 】

[Why do I feel that he suddenly feels a little sad? 】

[Is it my imagination? 】

【…】

For some reason, Yun Wanning suddenly felt that his mood had changed.

Outside the front yard.

The man in a dark blue robe crossed his arms and leaned against the red wooden pillars of the corridor, raising his chin slightly with a nonchalant expression.

'Gululu~'

There was a sound of rolling wooden wheels.

The boy in black appeared at the corner of the corridor pushing a wheelchair.

"Brother Mingyue~"

A hint of joy appeared in Gu Heng's eyes, and he raised his legs to greet Yun Wanchen.

"Long time no see, brother Mingyue, how are you doing?"

"Everything remains as usual, where is Jin'an?"

Yun Wanchen smiled slightly, his eyes were like stars blooming, the ice and snow melted in an instant, and there was no trace of haze.

Jin'an is Gu Heng's name.

Gu Heng touched his forehead and said, "I just came back from Nanzhou Mansion. Except for being tired, everything is fine. Brother Mingyue, I'm sorry. I came back too late and didn't catch up with you."

In the Dawu Kingdom, the status of imperial merchants was not high. There were twelve imperial merchants, who managed various royal industries such as salt, weaving, silk, tea, iron ore, and land transportation.

Except for personal connections and business, the imperial merchants had no actual say in the court, but there were many things going on.

Especially the Gu family, which manages land transportation and tea. As the young master, Gu Heng is extremely busy all day long.

"It doesn't matter."

"By the way," Gu Heng looked at the legs on the wheelchair and asked with probing eyes, "How was Brother Mingyue and Uncle Yun Qi's trip to Jingzhou? Was there anything gained?"

"It's a worthwhile trip."

A faint smile flashed across Yun Wanchen's lips, and he admitted generously.

He will stand up again soon. This matter cannot be hidden after all, so there is no need to hide it. Just dump it on Jingzhou's head and keep the little sister's secret.

"Ah? Really? That's great. I would like to congratulate Brother Mingyue in advance~"

Gu Heng couldn't help but laugh happily. It could be seen that at this moment, he was sincerely happy for his friend.

However, things are unpredictable and people will change after all, right?

Yun Wanchen lowered his eyelids slightly to cover the dark spots in his eyes.

In the hall, the waiter served tea and then retreated. Apart from Gu Heng and Yun Wanchen, only Cang Yan, who was quiet and had no presence, was left.

After chatting for a few words, Gu Heng's expression suddenly became awkward. Yun Wanchen took the tea cup and blew it gently, his eyes moved slightly, and he spoke calmly.

"Jin An seems to have something to say."

"Brother Mingyue, to be honest, apart from visiting you this time, I actually have something else to ask for~"

The voice became weaker and weaker, Gu Heng's handsome face turned slightly red, and he felt ashamed and embarrassed in his heart.

"Oh? Jin'an has something to say, but it doesn't matter. Between you and me, there is no need to hesitate."

"Thank you Brother Mingyue. In that case, let me tell you straight away. My aunt's family has a cousin who won the top three imperial examinations last year, but has not yet obtained an official position~"

In the Dawu Kingdom, Jinshi are divided into three categories. The first-level is the number one scholar, the second-ranked scholar, and the third most beautiful scholar. They are called "Jinshi and No." and there are three people in total. The second-level are called "Jinshi origin" and there are fifty people in total. As for these three, A total of one or two hundred people.

What does it mean to be "born with the same Jinshi"?

That's because he didn't pass the exam, which is a false name to show comfort. Otherwise, why add the word 'same'?

Therefore, the top three Jinshi are worthless. If you are lucky, you can be selected to study for the Imperial Examination. When the next imperial examination is held, you will be dismissed and stay in Haojing to find an official position.

Those who are unlucky will have no choice but to continue taking the imperial examinations, or be sent to remote areas, where no one wants to go, and where there is a lot of banditry.

"My aunt's family has made many connections, but she has hit a wall at every turn. My grandmother knew that I had a close personal relationship with Brother Mingyue, so she and my aunt begged me to find a way with Brother Mingyue."

"I don't want to agree, but my grandmother and aunt want to kneel to me for this. They are elders, how can I accept their kneeling?"

"In desperation, I had no choice but to shamelessly come to Brother Mingyue. I hope Brother Mingyue can do this favor for me so that I can go back to work. I would be very grateful!"

Sure enough~

My little sister’s words are all right!

Yun Wanchen tightened her fingers on the tea cup slightly, and all the luck in her heart was completely turned into ashes at this moment.

Huh~

He smiled lightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes at all.

"My cousin is not very young at all. Why don't you wait until the next imperial examination and take the exam again? Why are you so anxious to become an official in the court?"

The calm voice was tainted with a hint of doubt, making Gu Heng even more ashamed.

"To be honest, brother Mingyue, my cousin is mediocre in talent. He was lucky enough to get into the Jinshi this time. Even if he takes the exam a hundred times, he may not do better than this time. That's why my aunt's family is so anxious. "

"I see."

Yun Wanchen's brows moved slightly and he said, "But I'm from the same background as a Jinshi. Even if I come forward, I can't get any good official position."

"Brother Mingyue is willing to help. As long as I can find an official position that is not open to outsiders, I and my aunt's family will be very grateful. How dare I hope for a good official position."

Even if he is the number one scholar, he is only a sixth-rank official. How dare someone who is "born as a Jinshi" three hundred blocks away from the number one scholar dare to think about a good position?

It would be nice to have something to do.

Gu Heng expressed great understanding of this.

"Okay, I'll do my best."

"Then I'm really grateful to Brother Mingyue. After everything is done, I will definitely ask my aunt and cousin to come to my door in person to express my gratitude to Brother Mingyue..."

More than half an hour later, Gu Heng left a dozen valuable supplements and hurriedly left.

Mrs. Yun came in from behind the door.

"Cang Yan, please step aside first. I have something to say to the Crown Prince."

"Yes."

After getting rid of Cang Yan, Mrs. Yun looked at the man in the wheelchair who was like a breeze and a bright moon, her eyes couldn't help but turn slightly red.

"Chen'er, you clearly know..., why do you still agree to him?"

She originally thought that when he grew up, he would be able to handle his own affairs, but she still couldn't let go, so she handed Yun Wanning to the nanny and followed him quietly.

But who knows~

"You disappoint mother very much."

"Mother~"

Yun Wanchen gently stroked his forehead and sighed helplessly, "Since you know that the child knows this, why can't you give the child more trust?"

Deny him so easily.

"You've already promised him, how do you expect your mother to believe you? At the very least, you're asking for trouble, at the most serious, you're seeking power and taking bribes. It doesn't count for harming yourself, and you've also tainted your father and the Yun family. reputation..."

"How can my mother say it is so serious? It is reasonable and within the laws of the country to find connections to get a small job if you are born with the same Jinshi."

"You, you still talk back? Is that the problem? The problem is that Gu Heng..., you still help him when he does that?"

Mrs. Yun shed tears of anger.

Because she thought of a very important thing when Yun Wanchen went to see Gu Heng. Xiaosi had said before that Yaoer would be in extreme misery when she opposed the heroine in the future and was harmed by the heroine's suitors.
