When the Su carriage that Su Lin was riding into Jian'an Prefecture, the people of Jian'an Prefecture cheered.

"Su Jieyuan is back!"

"Haha! Su Jieyuan from our Jian'an Mansion is back. Even the children of the semi-saint prince are not Su Jieyuan's opponent!"

"Now Su Jieyuan's reputation has spread far to the Nine Kingdoms. It can be said that he is the most powerful juren in the entire Tianren Continent!"

"The Su family has become a semi-saint family, and Su Jieyuan is also the prince of the semi-saint family! You haven't seen it, has the plaque in front of Su Jieyuan's mansion been changed to 'Criminal's Mansion'?"

"Our Jian'an Mansion finally has the Semi-Saint Family Town Mansion!"

...

A few days on the way back to Jian'an Mansion from Jianzhou, the news that Su Lin won the first place in the prefecture examination had already been passed back through the letter of the Holy Power. The entire Jian'an Mansion became thrilled, and with the good news that the Su family was promoted to the semi-saint family, it can be said that it was a double happiness.

Yuan Tianzhang, the prefect of Jian'an Prefecture, Fang Chong, the head of the court, and others all went to the city gate to welcome Su Lin's triumphant return.

The carriage stopped at the city gate. Because there were too many people coming to watch, Su Lin had to get off the car and walk. The prefect Yuan Tianzhang, the head of the court, Fang Chong and others rushed up and bowed to Su Lin with a smile.

"Sulin! You really brought honor to our Jian'an Prefecture Courtyard! Although Jian'an Prefecture Courtyard has the golden signboard of Mr. Cai, it has not been released in four or five years since the State Examination for the Yuan Dynasty." Fang Chong, the head of the hospital, touched his gray beard and said with relief.

"Good boy, I haven't let my expectations of you! Hahaha... Su Lin, the few days you haven't been there, Yuan Mu is talking about you every day..."

Before the prefect Yuan Tianzhang finished speaking, Yuan Mu hurried forward excitedly, held Su Lin's shoulder, raised his thumbs up, and said to Su Lin: "Brother Su is worthy of being the boss of Yuan Mu. I have said a long time ago that Jie Yuan, the first in the provincial examination, is as easy as taking things out of his pocket. Brother Hong has also become a juren. Only me is just a little boy..."

Seeing Su Lin and Hong Liyu, who have now become juren, Yuan Mu was very happy for them, but there was a hint of imbalance. He thought that they were the first in the county examination half a year ago, but half a year later, Yuan Mu was just a small child. Su Lin and Hong Liyu have both become juren.

In half a year, from Tong Sheng to Juren, even the entire Tianren Continent could not be so fast.

So although Hong Liyu's light in several exams was covered by Su Lin's glory, in fact, Hong Liyu's talent was unique. If it weren't for the accumulation a little, the government exam would not be as good as Ji Yu, and the provincial exam would not be weaker than Zou Ziqi's.

"Okay, Brother Yuan. Don't talk nonsense. You are not bad either. With your current Mo Yi and thoughts, this year's official examination will definitely be a scholar in high school. Then there will be a provincial examination. This is a natural thing!"

Su Lin said with a smile that he had not seen Yuan Mu for nearly two months. However, he was able to discover keenly. Yuan Mu's thoughts have also improved very quickly in the past two months. Although he is not as good as him and Hong Liyu, it is already very fast compared to ordinary children.

"Look... Su Jieyuan, it's Su Jieyuan, it's Su Jieyuan, really... I saw Su Jieyuan!"

"Child, hurry up... sit on dad's shoulder and you will be the Qingshan Juren in the front of the carriage. That is Su Jieyuan, the genius of our Jian'an Mansion!"

"Hey! It would be great if I could get Su Jieyuan's calligraphy. Hanging it in my study every day will definitely double the learning efficiency of the children in my family and make my thinking progress very fast..."

...

As Su Lin got off the car, the people who were watching the fun became even more sensational. Many of the people here had seen Su Lin during the palace examination, but now Su Lin is more famous and has won the first place in Jie Yuan in the provincial examination. It can be said that it completely replaced Li Yuncong's previous genius status in the Wu Kingdom.

Especially the rich gentry in Jian'an Mansion were all trying to get a painting of Su Lin's calligraphy to get some Su Lin's talents to their descendants.

"Haha! Brother Su, it seems that the last time I exchanged a mansion for ten songs "Praise the Farmer" was a big profit. Now I am afraid... Brother Su's random calligraphy is more than 100,000 taels!"

In the crowd, Qian Sixian, the son of the Qian family, also greeted Su Lin with a smile. At the same time, he felt more and more that he was a very clear decision to make friends with Su Lin.

"Brother Qian was joking. My words are not that valuable. But I like the mansion that Brother Qian gave me very much. I just paid ten songs "Praise the Farmer"."

Su Lin waved his hand and looked at the crowded streets, and finally realized the importance of knowledge and thought in this Confucian and Taoist world. Famous Confucian scholars with thoughts and knowledge, regardless of whether they have a family background or not, will be able to stand out and turn their propositions into practical national policies by writing thoughtful articles and poems.

"Brother! Brother...you are finally back!"

Su Lin and Hong Liyu returned to their prince's mansion surrounded by the crowd. Halfway through the way, Su Ru jumped to Su Lin and buried her entire head in Su Lin's arms. After a long time, she raised her head, opened her big watery eyes, pouted her mouth, and said coquettishly to Su Lin: "Hmph! Brother is a big bad guy. I have been here for so many geniuses before I came back. Ru'er thought you don't want Ru'er..."

"Silly girl! Why would my brother want you? You are my brother's heart. My brother just went to take the imperial examination. Look, didn't my brother come back without stopping after the exam?"

Su Lin missed Su Lin for nearly two months. And now Su Ru is growing up now. It is said that women change every day, and Su Ru is also becoming more and more graceful.

"Hmph... Ru'er is not a silly girl! Brother, Ru'er is now able to recognize almost all the words, and Ru'er's piano skills have reached the level of being proficient under the guidance of Mr. Hua. It just so happens that my brother is now a juren, and Ru'er's piano skills can just help her."

Su Ru shook her head and protested, and then said seriously, "When my brother is studying in the future, Ru'er will play the piano for you. Playing the previous song "Clear the Heart and Less Desire" will make your brother concentrate on reading and thinking more. Playing the previous song "High Mountains and Flowing Water" will make your brother's thinking diverge further and have greater room for ideological progress..."

"It's only been three months since I've recognized all the words? And... I've also reached the level of 'just proficiency'? Ru'er, you are so amazing. It's my brother who underestimated you!"

Su Lin was also a little surprised by Su Ru's progress. It can be seen that during the period when he was not here, Su Ru must have been studying very hard.

"By the way! Ru'er, my brother has a letter here that I asked my third uncle to keep before my father passed away, saying that I would not be able to take it out until I reach the juren position. Just as you can recognize words now, wait until you return to the mansion and read it with your brother!"

When Su Ru saw Su Lin thought of the letter from his father.

"Brother, is it... it's my father's letter? Ru'er... Ru'er almost forgot... what his father looks like. Brother, Ru'er hopes that she can also have a father and mother like other people's daughter...but..."

When Su Ru mentioned her father's letter, tears couldn't stop flowing. Su Ru, who has always been strong, had a giggle smile on her face on weekdays, but in fact, she is still just a thirteen-year-old girl. How could she not want to be as cared for by her parents as her daughters as her parents?

"Ru'er, my father and mother are gone, but with my brother here! My brother will love you, I believe my brother!"

Su Lin couldn't help feeling sad, so she hugged Su Ru even tighter. Su Ru was only thirteen years old this year, her mother died of dysfunction after birth, and she was less than three years old when her father left. And she had to endure the abuse of her vicious stepmother since she was a child. Even Su Lin, the biological brother, had no good expression to her at the beginning.

So, Su Lin secretly swore in her heart that she must give this sister Su Ru a happy life.

"Sulin, are you back?"

Su Zhong, the second master of the Su family, came with Su Ru. Seeing that Su Lin and Su Ru were in love with each other, they left him aside without any sense of existence, so they couldn't help but cough and said.

"Second uncle! Yes... I'm back. Fortunately, I'm not embarrassed by the Su family!"

Knowing that Su Zhong is a bad temper, Su Lin was in a good mood today and didn't fuck him, and said to him with a smile.

"Well! You can stand out among so many powerful opponents and win the first place in Jie Yuan. Su Lin, you did a good job. But don't slack off because of this. You are still just a juren, and you will have Jinshi, Grand Secretary, Hanlin Grand Secretary, Great Confucian, and Great Confucian. Only after entering the holy path can you truly understand the truth and meaning of thought!

Your future path is still far away! And now you have become the prince of my Su family, and I will demand you with higher standards. If you do not meet the requirements, I will naturally report to my father and ask him to disqualify your prince! Don’t lose my Su family members outside!"

Su Zhong still couldn't change his way of speaking. The head of the family said to praise you first, and then began to warn you not to be complacent and work harder.

"I know, second uncle! Don't worry, Su Lin will not be embarrassed for the Su family." Su Lin said with a smile.

At this time, among the crowd, a pair of bright and beautiful eyes were staring at Su Lin tightly. The emotions in this look were very complicated, sometimes happy, sometimes lost, and sometimes entangled.

"Dong Zijin, how about it? Now your lover, Brother Su Lin, has become a genius scholar of the nine countries. According to my opinion, if he grows up like this, he will be at least a well-known scholar in the future. I can allow you to return to him, but you must cooperate with me to complete his destiny with the help of him..."

Among the crowd, Dong Zijin, who was masked with a black veil, looked at Su Lin secretly, but in her mind, there was another voice belonging to the Nine-tailed Holy Fox. (To be continued...)
