Everyone thinks that I created cultivation

"I don't know if Mr. Mu is here, but the officials are far away from us." Yan Wei greeted Mu Huarong who came uninvited.

"There is no need to be so courteous." Mu Huarong raised his palm falsely, "I also decided to come here temporarily, and I didn't inform you in advance."

"I wonder if my lord came here in person, what is the so-called matter?" Yan Wei asked.

Mu Huarong raised the corners of his lips slightly, looking very happy. "You shouldn't forget what day it is today."

Hearing this, Yan Wei vaguely guessed his reason for coming. "Today is the day when Qiu Wei releases the rankings. I have arranged for my servants to investigate Liu Yu's grades, and it will take at least two or three hours to get the information."

Mu Huarong looked at Yan Wei with more satisfaction.

The great contribution to disaster relief in the south of the Yangtze River not only promoted Yan Wei's official position by two ranks, but also made him highly regarded by His Majesty.

Correspondingly, he had more affairs to deal with.In addition to government affairs and tentative friendships with all parties, Yan Wei rarely has leisure these days.

Even so, Yan Wei still hasn't forgotten the day when Qiu Wei opened the list.Like him, he is a thoughtful person.

"I know you care about Liu Yu, so I arranged someone in advance to deliver the news for us. This time, I made a special trip to announce the good news to you."

"Liu Yu got the right candidate?" Yan Wei said, but he didn't feel much joy in his heart.With Liu Yu's talent and several years of preparation for the exam, it was expected that he would win the exam.

Mu Huarong shook his head, "Liu Yu is someone who was personally taught by Master Mu, how can it be called a happy event to pass the exam?"

"Could it be that he won the first name Jieyuan?!" Yan Wei's face was full of joy.For Liu Yu to be valued by Yu Chengyuan, the better he is, the better.

"That's right." Mu Huarong patted Yan Wei on the shoulder, "This news is great news. When Grandmaster Mu is out of customs, you must pass the news to him as soon as possible!"

"Naturally." Hearing this, Yan Wei knew that Mu Huarong and the others were trying to save the country with curves, and regarded 'Liu Yu' as the key point to please Mu Jin.Thinking of this, Yan Wei had a trace of hesitation on his face.

Mu Huarong saw his hesitation and asked. "What questions do you have?"

"Is Liu Yu's name of Jie Yuan his own real achievement, or..." Yan Wei didn't continue.

The Chongguo Imperial Examination is strictly supervised, but it is not without loopholes.Jiangnan is Mu Huarong's hometown, and his power in Jiangnan can be said to be deeply entrenched, and there are countless chess pieces in the open and in the dark.

Although a group of officials in Jiangning County were exiled for disaster relief, most of the officials who were replaced later were made up from the counties below them, and there were inevitably people from Mu Huarong among them.

If Mu Huarong is willing, the title of Xie Yuan is really not difficult to get.Liu Yu's reputation and literary name in Jiangning County are not low, he has to know that Yuan will not arouse suspicion at all.No one to verify, there will be no worries.

"I'm not a fool!" Mu Huarong sensed Yan Wei's thoughts and said quickly.

"Reducing the difficulty of the imperial examination for those with low education will make people feel grateful. If it is a truly talented person, it would be humiliating to use some small means. I am also a literati, so how could I take the shame and do something shameless for literati? .”

Yan Wei agreed with what he said before, but he was ridiculed when he heard the last sentence.

"Things that are shameless for literati", has Mu Huarong done too little?Many things he did, let those orthodox literati know, they can't help but say 'disgraceful'!

In Mu Huarong's eyes, he and Yan Wei are each other, neither is better than the other, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with saying that.Doesn't Yan Wei also talk about the high-sounding scenes very smoothly?

"You are acquainted with the newly appointed Governor Liu, you only need to ask me to know if I have any means."

The newly appointed sheriff of Jiangning County is the former Liuzhi County of Liuning County. His official position has been promoted several levels at a time, which is not much worse than Yan Wei.Under normal circumstances, the post of sheriff would never be his turn.

This time, the dispute between the court and the sheriff of Jiangning County was too serious, and Yu Chengyuan decided to choose from the several counties under him.Among the county-level officials, there are really not many outstanding ones, and a few county magistrates have already been eliminated in advance.County magistrate Liu became one of the best because of this flood.

Lin Lexian knew very well that the county magistrate Liu and Yan Wei had a fateful friendship through the plague together, so he did not treat him as an outsider.It was rare for Wei Jinglun and the others not to refute, so the matter was settled like this.

"I don't doubt Lord Mu." Yan Wei said quickly.

"I understand, you just care too much about Liu Yu! Liu Yu is a person valued by Master Mu, not only you care about him very much, but also me and Lord Yushi." Mu Huarong smiled, "This time he Got Zhongjieyuan, do you have any idea to rush to this year's test?"

"He does have plans to participate in this year's test." Yan Wei nodded.

"The young man is very ambitious." Mu Huarong praised, "Remember to inform me when he enters Beijing. Lord Yushi is going to entertain him personally."

Yan Wei straightened his expression, "Definitely."

From Jiangnan to Kyoto, it will take more than ten days at a fast pace.

Liu Yu was not in a hurry, it took him a full month to get from Jiangnan to Kyoto.

After finishing a day in the capital, Liu Yu received an invitation from Lin Lexian.

Also in the box on the top floor of Juxian Restaurant, Yan Wei introduced people for both parties.

It was the first time to meet a high-ranking official like Doctor Yu Shi, Liu Yu looked a little cautious on the surface, obviously with the youthfulness of a young man, but he did not make any mistakes in etiquette.

"Liu Jieyuan, Lord Lin and Lord Mu value talented people the most, Corporal Chang Lixian, you don't have to be nervous." Seeing that the atmosphere was a little tense, Yan Wei opened his mouth to smooth things over.

"That's right." Mu Huarong smiled after hearing this, "I think I went to Beijing to rush for the exam like you back then, and was invited to meet by Mr. Lin, and that's why I made such an achievement."

For Mu Huarong to be able to sit on the position of Great Sima, his talent and learning can certainly be affirmed. Back then, he also entered Beijing under the name of Fang Jieyuan.

Four or fifty years ago, the Mu family was also a prominent family, but it was far behind the big families in the capital.What's more, the relationship between Mu Huarong and the members of the Mu family was a bit cold at that time, and they couldn't even get the money they had collected.

It was because Lin Lexian took a fancy to his talent and gave him some advice that he was able to stand up.

At that time, Lin Lexian was indeed very courteous and corporal.Now, there are scholars who are willing to serve him without him bothering.It has been a long time since Lin Lexian had an appointment with Xie Yuan in person like today.

Hearing Mu Huarong's words, Liu Yu's expression really eased a lot. "Caomin cannot be compared with Da Sima."

If he wins the Juren, he has the qualifications to be an official, but Liu Yu was so focused on the next exam that he didn't enter the officialdom.He has no official position, and he still calls himself a grassroots man when he meets officials.

"Liu Jieyuan is too modest. I have read your answer sheet, and your current knowledge is much better than that of Da Sima. If you took the exam in the same year as him, he would not be the one I have my eyes on." Lin Lexian glanced at Mu Huarong as he spoke.

"Ashamed! It seems that I should be glad that there was only Mu Jieyuan and no Liu Jieyuan back then!" Mu Huarong was not annoyed at being belittled, and was extremely cooperative.

"My lords praised you." Liu Yu was extremely humble, but his posture was obviously relaxed a lot.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Mu Huarong exchanged glances with Lin Lexian, and then spoke. "I wonder if Liu Jieyuan can get married?"

"If you don't make great achievements, how dare you start a family." At Liu Yu's age, in a big family, there are already many wives and concubines, but in poor families, most of them start a family two years later.The situation in Liu Yu's family is already very difficult to support him to study, so where there is spare money, he will arrange the wedding for him.Although the mother in the family suggested it more than once, they were all rejected by Liu Yu.

"Master Lin praised me very much back then, and he immediately wanted to recruit a son-in-law. Now I see Liu Jieyuan is like this." Mu Huarong smiled brightly, "I have a daughter in my family, who is nearly double ten, and is about the same age as you , I don't know what you think?"

"Caomin has no family background and no fame, how can he care about his children's personal relationship?" Before Liu Yu came to the capital, he was ready to hang out with Lin Lexian and Mu Huarong for a period of time, but he never thought about being with Lin Lexian and Mu Huarong. The two were married.

Lin Lexian glanced at Mu Huarong reproachfully. "You don't need to worry, it will be the examination period soon. With Liu Yu's knowledge, it is not difficult to stand out in the examination. When the examination and palace examination are over one after another, Liu Jieyuan's fame will be added. It's not too late. Wouldn't your proposal at this time put more pressure on Liu Jieyuan?"

"I'm also worried that a talented person like Liu Jieyuan will be booked in advance by others. Now it's safe to let him know in advance." Mu Huarong smiled.

In fact, Mu Huarong didn't expect to make a marriage contract so soon. No one with a certain amount of self-knowledge would agree to a marriage contract when he has achieved nothing.Especially a literati like Liu Yu who is obviously a little arrogant, he just used this to show his favor to Liu Yu.

During the next general examination and palace examination, Liu Yu not only had to accept the emperor's test, but also to accept their investigation.They can use this to know how much capital Liu Yu is worth their investment.

Mu Huarong has more than one daughter. His wife is virtuous and generous. Although she was born in a very high family, she did not force him not to take concubines.However, his concubines have always been unlucky, and although they have a few bloodlines, they are all women.One of them is the same age as the prostitute, only a few months apart, and both are nearly double tenth.

If Liu Yuzhen is valued by the master as rumored, and has real talents and learning, Mu Huarong would not mind handing over to him the jewel in the palm of the Mu family's palm.If there is a need for rumors, he is not talented enough to learn, and it is okay to lose a concubine daughter.

"Thank you, Lord Mu, for your attention." Although Liu Yu didn't want to marry Mu Huarong in his heart, he showed a grateful expression on his face.

Liu Yu is not very worried about this marriage.After all, even if he agreed, others might not be willing.

As far as he knew, the noble daughters in the palace who hadn't betrothed for nearly twenty years all peeped at the position of the mother in the world.Over the years, the ministers of the DPRK and China have restrained each other, and His Majesty does not pay much attention to female sex, which is why it has been delayed until now.

Mu Huarong's willingness to give up the position of the mother of the world does not mean that the eldest lady of the Mu family is willing to give up. Liu Yu does not think that he has the charm comparable to His Majesty.Taking a step back, even if His Majesty is not considered, the eldest lady probably would not consider him first.

If you were a noble daughter from another family, you would definitely not have the ability to resist.The Mu family, but not necessarily.Mu Huarong dotes on his wife and daughter, but he is famous for his country.

As for the concubine... According to Senior Mu's arrangement, the concubine might not be worthy of his 'potential'.

Without waiting for Lin Lexian, Mu Huarong and the others to be more polite, the shadow of a swift eagle suddenly appeared outside the window of the box.

"This is?" Mu Huarong opened the window, making sure that they didn't raise the Swift Eagle.

Liu Yu quickly stood up, went to Xun Ying and took down the letter, checked it before opening his mouth. "Brother Mu is out of customs, I heard that I have arrived in the capital, please ask me to meet."

Lin Lexian and Mu Huarong glanced at each other, both with joy in their eyes, "Master Mu's invitation is urgent, Liu Jieyuan can leave first."

"Cao Min will leave first." Liu Yu didn't care about politeness either.

Yan Wei also got up quickly, "I'll give Liu Jieyuan a ride."

Watching the two leave, the smile on Lin Lexian's face became less gentle and more calculating. "Your Majesty has tried everything possible to worship a teacher, but Master Mu stayed here not necessarily because of him! He retreated directly on the day of his apprenticeship, and Liu Jieyuan immediately left the closed door on the day he entered Beijing. It is really clear at a glance which is more important."

"This situation is more beneficial to us." Mu Huarong looked happy.

If there is no accident, if Liu Yu gets married with him, he will not only have an extra right-hand man, but also an extra master to support him.
