After the banquet ended, after saying goodbye to all the officials, Chen Yichen and his new imperial examination candidates also walked out of Shuntian Gongyuan.

At this moment, Xiao Yi leaned over and bowed to Chen Yichen and said, "Xie Yuanlang is grateful for his support today."

Looking at Xiao Yi's serious and serious look, Chen Yichen smiled distractedly and said, "I have used even the support. Those who don't know think I have done something big."

"A mere trivial matter is not worth mentioning."

To be honest, Chen Yichen really didn't take this opportunity to show off seriously, and he didn't think about any rewards for helping Xiao Yi, and he simply went with the flow.

"It may be a small matter for Jie Yuanlang, but it is a great kindness for me, Xiao Yi."

Xiao Yi was not saying anything politely. He was born into a poor farmer and was a standard low-level scholar.

This kind of scholar who was born in a small country was worthless in the eyes of many people before he became famous, and would not help him for no reason. Even because of the lack of literati and poor family background, Xiao Yi had suffered a lot of mockery and contempt along the way.

Chen Yichen, as the son of the Duke of the Kingdom and the Lord of Jie Yuan, treated him with courtesy when he saw his shabby appearance in the tea shed, and gave him a good opportunity at the Lu Ming Banquet.

This gentlemanly demeanor and grand pattern impressed Xiao Yi, and he also deeply remembered Chen Yichen's help today.

After all, Chen Yichen no longer forcibly refuses. After all, some people remember their own goodness, which is better than having one more enemy.

Just when Shen Yichen was about to bow his way, he said that his enemy would arrive.

Sun Shaozong walked out of the tribute school with several new imperial examination candidates who followed him, and happened to meet Chen Yichen, with a very ugly face.

However, this time around him, there was Yayuan He Pingyan, a provincial examination. When he saw Chen Yichen, he greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Xie Yuanlang, the talented articles he showed at the Luming Banquet today are so admirable."

"Brother He, you're polite, I'll give up."

When he entered the tribute court, He Pingyan came forward to give both sides a step, and took the initiative to fall behind, showing Jie Yuan as the most respectful person and making the inner and face full of his own face.

These actions made Chen Yichen have a good impression of him, so he spoke more modestly and low-key.

"Zhe Yuanlang, you are too humble."

Facing this, Chen Yichen smiled unanimously, and if he continues to be humble, it will seem a bit fake.

After finishing the courtesy, He Pingyan also began to prepare to talk about some serious matters.

"Xie Yuanlang, let me ask you a question, are there any holidays between you and Brother Sun?"

Brother Sun here undoubtedly refers to Sun Shaozong.

"It's just a little irrelevant problem."

Chen Yichen replied indifferently. Indeed, this kind of friction was just a small problem in his eyes.

Of course, he didn't know whether it was in Sun Shaozong's eyes.

"Everyone was in the same year as the provincial examination and sang "The Poem of Deer Ming" together. He should be united and helped each other, and he would also have a helping support in his career in the future."

"When I went out just now, I also talked to Brother Sun, and they all thought that enemies should be resolved rather than made up. If Jie Yuanlang was willing to give this lie, he would be a peacemaker and hold a banquet in Xueling Pavilion, the capital?"

Sun Shaozong wanted to shake hands and make peace, but Chen Yichen didn't believe in this kind of thing because he knew the nature of real playboys too well. Unless he was to subdue them, he would have to find a place back.

So far, Sun Shaozong has lost some face and is far from being a pampered person.

If this kid had the pleasure of reconciliation, he would not have been so arrogant and domineering.

However, believing it or not is one thing, and giving face or not is another thing. After all, Chen Yichen is an outsider in the capital, and there are many families with deep family backgrounds and forces. If you can not provoke enemies, try to be harmonious as much as possible.

And there is a more important point, that is, the "golden signboard" of Duke Cheng, I am afraid I will be useless.

That day's dialogue was called "father-son breaking". Although Cheng Guogong had not driven herself out in the past few days, Chen Yichen thought that the good days should be over.

It is always a good thing to be able to solve a "hidden danger" before the current biggest backer collapses.

"What Brother He said is reasonable, and I don't want to cause more trouble. I will trouble you."

"Why not have trouble? This is what you should do in the same year. Jie Yuanlang is generous!"

"Brother He, I haven't picked up the word "Talent" yet. Why don't you just call me your name? Jie Yuanlang is a little too polite."

After all, He Pingyan is the second place in the provincial examination. It is a bit unreasonable to use Jie Yuanlang's title like this. Moreover, the other party is now a middleman to help mediate, and Chen Yichen didn't want to seem arrogant, so it would be better to change the title to be low-key.

"Since Jie Yuanlang has said this, how many years older next year, I'll call him Yichen a little older, so it's more intimate."

"Brother He is at will."

"Okay, let's make up for this matter. At that time, I will send someone to the mansion to invite you, and wait for the arrival of the great master."

"I dare not take it."

Chen Yichen bowed and expressed his gratitude.

After saying that, He Pingyan went to Sun Shaozong and probably reposted the conversation between the two.

"Brother He is both talented and knowledgeable, and is a famous gentleman in the capital."

Seeing He Pingyan go away, Xiao Yi introduced Chen Yichen, with a little respect in his tone.

"Yeah?"

Chen Yichen didn't know much about anything except knowing that the other party was the second in the provincial examination.

"Well, Brother He is an excellent tribute student in the Imperial College, and his grades are always at the forefront. He is also enthusiastic and free-spirited by nature, likes to make friends. The well-known scholars in the capital have more or less intersected and are widely praised."

"Oh, it sounds pretty good."

Chen Yichen nodded. It was true that from the first contact, He Pingyan was like a spring breeze when dealing with things.

"With Brother He as the middleman to hold a banquet, Sun Shaozong should give this face and also save Chen Jieyuan from the villain's grudge."

"Haha, it seems that I owe a favor, too."

Listening to Chen Yichen's meaningful words, Xiao Yi also smiled on his face, and everything was silent.

After saying goodbye to Xiao Yi, Chen Yichen returned to the Duke Cheng Mansion. As soon as he got off the carriage, he met Zhu Yong, Lin and Zhu Ji, and seemed to be planning to go out.

Seeing Chen Yichen coming, a little unnatural expression flashed on Duke Cheng Guoyu Zhu Yong's face, but this expression was fleeting and soon returned to normal.

"How did Lu Mingyan participate?"

"all the best."

Chen Yichen bowed and answered respectfully.

No matter what their thoughts are now, at least on the surface, they must remain normal.

Now Shen Yichen finally understood why the famous saying "Accompanying the king is like a tiger" appeared in ancient times. His situation is similar to Zhu Yong, and his face is about to break up behind him. He is ready to pack up and pick up a bucket from Duke Cheng's Mansion.

But I have to act respectfully in front of me, and there is no trace of abnormality.

"Um."

Apart from simply saying hello, Duke Cheng and Chen Yichen had nothing to say, so they nodded and prepared to get on the carriage.

On the contrary, at this time, Lin leaned over and said with relief: "Today, seeing Jie Yuan's show when Yichen left the mansion, the entire Duke's Mansion is really honored. Now that the imperial examination has achieved something, we should consider major events in life."

After saying that, Lin turned to look at Duke Cheng Zhu Yong and said, "Mr. Master, how about I help Yichen find a good match in the circle of honorary and noble ladies in the capital?"

When Chen Yichen heard that Lin was preparing to arrange a marriage for him, he became alert immediately. This was a matter of happiness for the rest of his life. Moreover, according to ancient etiquette, the status and identity of the mother were more respectful than that of the biological mother.

Once she reached a tacit understanding with Duke Cheng on this matter, it was almost equivalent to the order of her parents. The matchmaker said that she had no choice.

So Chen Yichen flatly refused and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Zhu, for her kindness. I am not yet in the short term, and next year's spring exam is right in front of me, so I have no intention of considering marriage."

"Yichen, the ancients still have fifteen or twenty-seventeen years old. You are already seventeen years old this year. You can hold the ceremony at any time. In addition, with a good companion, you can take care of yourself in life, so you can concentrate on studying and prepare for next year's spring exam."

"Look at the second brother Zhu Ji. Today, I plan to go to Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion to discuss marriage with the daughter of the waiter. Wouldn't he also participate in the spring exam next year? If you also get a marriage, wouldn't it be a two-year happy place?"

When she said this, a look of pride appeared on Lin's face. The reason why she "urged" Chen Yichen was not that she was very kind to find a good match.

More often than not, seeing Chen Yichen Jie Yuan's pomp today, I felt secretly jealous in my heart. This was a grand occasion that his son was far from being able to win the first prize.

So, taking this opportunity to promote the news that he was about to marry the Marquis' daughter, which also made Chen Yichen envious and jealous.

So what if you pass the exam, Jie Yuan? The starting point of your true life may be the end point that you "ordinary people" like you can never reach even if you work hard for a lifetime!

Lin is showing off here, and Zhu Ji next to the carriage is green!

If others don’t know, can he still not know the ambiguous relationship between Chen Yichen and Chen Qingtong?

Although Zhenyuan Hou is a marquis as Taining Hou and even has a slightly higher status and power, can the daughters of both sides be compared?

The daughter of Zhenyuan Hou is just one of the many children in the Hou Mansion. She is not highly valued and does not receive the strong help from the family.

Chen Qingtong is the only daughter of Marquis Taining. Since childhood, she has been like a pearl in her hand. Whoever can marry her means she can get the full support of a marquis. After all, Marquis Taining has no other choice.

Now that his mother is showing off her marriage with the Marquis’ daughter in front of Shen Yichen, Zhu Ji feels frustrated. You must know that she was the loser in the competition with Chen Yichen!

"Mrs. Zhu doesn't need to do it anymore, I have my own plans."

Chen Yichen's tone became much more tough and unfamiliar this time because he understood that he would continue to refuse politely, and maybe the other party would hit the snake and go on a stick and make a forced marriage.

This ancient "blind box" marriage method can make you find someone who can live a life of life if you are lucky. Bad luck will be a disaster for the rest of your life!

Moreover, according to Lin's methods and thoughts, the possibility of the latter is estimated to be close to 100%.

"What are you talking about? Get in the car!"

Chen Yichen's voice had his own plans, but did not affect the Lin family, but instead stimulated Zhu Yong, Duke Chengguo.
