"A martial artist thought he could become a scholar by reading a few books, but now he has finally been brought back to his original form."
"Mr. Cheng's status as a scholar is not very high. It's a pity that we, Han Chuang, have been studying hard for ten years, but we can't compare to others who have a good background."
"Grandpa, there is no need for you. The Gu family has His Highness King Qin behind him, and the emperor has also acquiesced to King Qin's actions. We can't take advantage of the Gu family." After this incident, the third young master Cheng became more and more stable, and became less arrogant and complacent. A little more calm and cautious.
A military commander in troubled times, a civil servant in prosperous times. After the arrival of the peaceful and prosperous age, the families who started their careers in martial arts have turned to the path of civil examination. How many successful ones are there in the capital
But in the blink of an eye, Jing Yan withdrew his eyes as if nothing had happened, and returned to his original gentleness and calmness, as if the dangerous person just now was not him.
"If you don't find something for your eldest brother and second brother to do, you don't know what trouble they will cause. It's better to let them get busy. The emperor has always disliked the fifth prince's involvement in politics. We who clean up the fifth prince also do it for the emperor's view. You can't not teach the Gu family a lesson. People who don't know about it think that our Cheng family is also weak." Old Master Cheng didn't take it seriously. Third Young Master Cheng knew that his grandfather felt sorry for him, so he stopped persuading him and touched the fifth prince anyway. King Zhao, King Zhou and King Qin will all be happy, and Gu Qiancheng will also be satisfied.
Young Master Cheng understood it as soon as he thought about it, and left happily immediately, "Grandpa, this is a good idea. I will find someone to beat the people placed in the army by the fifth prince, and I will never let them have an easy time."
…
"But, we have suffered such a big loss, so we just admit it?" Young Master Cheng was unwilling to give in. Young Master Gu's legs were broken, so he wanted to take revenge on the Cheng family. Now his third brother's path to the imperial examination is ruined. , he also wants to take revenge on the Gu family and make the Gu family uneasy.
Just as Jing Yan expected, on the second day after the competition, the news spread throughout the streets that Young Master Cheng was inferior to a woman from the Gu family.
"Grandpa, let's forget it? I really can't swallow this breath." Mr. Cheng was unwilling to give in. Mr. Cheng had no choice but to give advice to this grandson who only had height but no brain. "This matter is involved. King Qin, we can't touch the Gu family now, so we can only start elsewhere. Concubine Gu has always been short-sighted and has no vision. Find an opportunity to reveal some information to Concubine Gu, saying that our Cheng family is very dissatisfied with the Gu family, and we must concentrate our efforts to eliminate the five. The prince places people in the army.”
Jing Yan curled his lips and smiled, a sarcastic smile flashed across his bright black eyes: Your Highness, King Qin, I wonder if your opponent will miss this opportunity to turn you against the Cheng family? And at that time, do you still have the energy to send people to keep an eye on me
"You've expected this, haven't you?" Mr. Cheng said honestly, with no expression on his face, "Qingzhou is stronger than you think. He will be fine."
"A martial artist is a martial artist. If he still wants to imitate the behavior of a scholarly family when he has no ability, it must be a joke now."
It would be a lie for these people to say they are not jealous of the Cheng family, but they are not so bad as to spread rumors in the capital and ruin the reputation of Third Young Master Cheng. At most, they are adding fuel to the flames and letting others spread rumors about Third Young Master Cheng in the capital. The people who caused the unfavorable rumors were actually the kings of Zhou and Zhao.
Gu Qiancheng, I am in conflict with you. If I cannot become a civil official, I will become a general with both civil and military skills!
Ginger is still old and spicy, and Mr. Cheng will hit seven inches if he doesn't take action. Concubine Gu puts pressure on the Gu family. If the Gu family disobeys, they will turn against Concubine Gu. The Cheng family does not need to do anything but watch the civil strife in the Gu family with cold eyes.
Third Young Master Cheng fell into the hands of Gu Qiancheng. Smart people knew that Qin Jiyan was behind this incident. At this time, King Zhou and King Zhao pushed the rumors and ruined Third Young Master Cheng's path to the civil service examination. The Cheng family's anger was directed at Qin Jiyan, causing the Cheng family and Qin Jiyan to become enemies.
If such a thing happened to other people's families, it might not be so serious. After all, although Cheng Sangong lost, his own strength was there, but it was different if it happened to the Cheng family.
Thinking of that arrogant and arrogant woman, Young Master Cheng couldn't help but grit his teeth. In his entire life, he has never met a woman more outrageous than Gu Qiancheng, not even his mother who loves to use sticks to say she loves him. .
There are many disadvantages to Jing Yan living in the Gu family, but there is one great advantage, that is, when His Highness King Qin comes to the Gu family, Jing Yan will know about it.
Jing Yan stood up and walked outside the door, looking towards a hidden corner. He knew that it was Qin Jiyan's secret guard, whose purpose was to monitor him.
"Today's situation was indeed set up by the King of Qin. His Highness the King of Qin is really idle. He doesn't do his own thing but hangs around Gu Qiancheng all day long. It seems that the matter of Laotan Noodle House does not concern him." Jing Yan Gao Shenmo Mo He stared intently at the wick swinging left and right on the table, his deep eyes making people tremble in their hearts.
Sometimes, it is not that they want to follow the dragon's merits as subjects, but they are forced to board the pirate ship.
The King of Zhou and the King of Zhao had sinister intentions, but it had to be said that the effect was very good. When rumors spread in the capital, the Cheng family would inevitably resent the King of Qin.
"Who do you want to take revenge on? Your Highness the King of Qin or the Gu family? Don't forget, no matter how bad the Gu family is, there is still a favored empress in the palace, and a fifth prince. Before, the Gu family refused to be tough, but now the Gu family is tough, and the fifth prince is Just for the sake of face, I will support the Gu family."
Old Mrs. Cheng's eyes that have experienced vicissitudes of life shone with wisdom. Seeing that Young Master Cheng was still unhappy, Old Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but shook his head, "Don't worry about this matter. It doesn't matter if Qingzhou leaves the circle of literati. Although King Zhao and King Zhou are thinking about it at home recently. Yes, but they are making frequent moves in private. I was worried that Qingzhou would be plotted by those civil servants after he became an official. Now that he is bent on martial arts, at least under our own eyes, no one dares to trick Qingzhou."
"It is said that the Cheng family is a martial arts family. Their third son has only been studying for a few years and yet he wants to imitate others and take the top prize. It is a joke."
In inns, restaurants, bookshops, any place where people gather together, this matter must be discussed.
For three generations of the Cheng family, there had been no scholar in the family. The sudden appearance of a scholar who was admitted to the imperial examination at a young age made many military generals' families jealous.
"Grandfather, the King of Qin has gone too far to bully people." When Young Master Cheng heard the rumors outside, he didn't dare to tell Third Young Master Cheng, for fear that Third Young Master Cheng wouldn't be able to bear it.
Young Master Cheng left with a happy face, and Young Master Cheng walked out from behind the screen, his expression a little sluggish, but his eyes were still clear.
Mr. Gu always dreamed of having a civil servant with real power in his family, but in the end, only Mr. Gu became a minor official in the Ministry of Punishment with the help of outsiders. If it hadn't been for the Feng family's intervention, Mr. Gu would have been stuck in the Ministry of Justice as an errand boy for the rest of his life.
