The person who spoke was none other than Qin Ziyin's brother, Qin Huai.

Qin Ziyin is the youngest in the family, with two older brothers. The eldest is Qin Wu, who is an escort master and is responsible for the Qin family's external escort business.

Qin Huai is the second eldest son and is the only scholar in the Qin family who is studying. He is seven or eight years older than Su Qi'an.

It was only five or six years ago that he passed the examination as a scholar. Although he cannot be compared with Su Qi'an back then, he can still be regarded as a young talent in Lingbei County.

The Qin family is in the fabric business. Over the years, the business in Lingbei County has grown bigger and bigger, and the family's wealth is considered to be the richest in Lingbei County.

In addition, the scholars who passed the Qinhuai examination gradually developed friendship with the aristocratic families in Lingbei County. With their outstanding strength and superb emotional intelligence, coupled with the activities of the Qin family behind the scenes.

Three years ago, Qin Huai became the leading figure among the scholar students in Lingbei County. If he could take a step closer and pass the high school examination, then the Qin family would truly get rid of their status as merchants and officially become a powerful family in Lingbei County.

But these have nothing to do with Su Qian.

Since Su Qi'an failed the exam and failed the exam many times, the Qin family has long given up on Su Qi'an. During this period, in order to make a living, Qin Ziyin went back to her parents' home to get some silver.

This was a shame for a wealthy family. They tried to persuade Qin Ziyin to leave Su Qi'an, but Qin Ziyin was stubborn and refused to leave.

Because of this, the Qin family was extremely disappointed with Qin Ziyin, and they had no contact with her for seven or eight years.

When Su Qi'an saw Qin Huai standing up for him, he was surprised at first, but he did not reveal the relationship between him and Qin Huai midway, nor did he recognize each other.

Because so much time has passed, even other dignitaries in Lingbei County are not very clear about the relationship between Qin Huai and Su Qi'an, let alone Wei Yun from other counties.

When Qin Huai spoke, Su Qian was very calm. He sat opposite Qin Huai and said softly, "Well, Xiaoyin is pretty good."

Just such a short sentence made Qin Huai feel Su Qi'an's coldness.

Qin Huai didn't pay attention. He took a deep look at Su Qi'an and said, "Brother-in-law, you have really changed. The change is so incredible that no one can see through it."

Su Qi'an chuckled, "Haha, after going through some things, if you think about it, you will always make some changes."

Qin Huai nodded without saying anything, and the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward for a while.

To be honest, Su Qi'an is somewhat complicated about the Qin family. Although he borrowed the client's body, during his stay in Daliang, Su Qi'an not only accepted the client's body, but his emotions were also somewhat affected in some aspects.

Su Qi'an could understand the Qin family's ruthlessness when Su Qi'an was in decline, but this was definitely not something that could be relieved by Su Qi'an and Qin Huai's exchange of greetings.

For the Qin family, Su Qi'an would not resent the Qin family at most, but she would not deliberately help them. She would just wait for an opportunity to return Qin Huai's love someday.

Su Qi'an's thoughts naturally could not escape Qin Huai's eyes. Qin Huai took a sip of the tea on the table, sighed and said.

"Brother-in-law, I know you have resentment towards the Qin family. The Qin family is snobbish. I have nothing to say about this. But I help you not only because of your talent, but more importantly because of my little sister."

"Back then, I didn't play a big role in the Qin family, and I didn't protect my little sister well, which caused her to suffer a lot. I'm very ashamed of this. Now, all I can do is do my best to protect you in Lingbei County.

"

"No matter whether you are in high school or not, as long as you still recognize me as your brother-in-law, the door of the Qin family will be open to you at any time."

Su Qi'an could feel that Qin Huai's words were sincere and came from the heart.

Qin Huai belongs to the Qin family. When he was in decline, there were one of the few Qin family members who did not suffer the consequences.

If it was because of this, with Su Qi'an's temper, it would be impossible for him to sit together with Qin Huai and have a good communication.

Speaking of this, Su Qi'an also expressed his heartfelt sympathy, "Brother-in-law, I understand what you want to say, and I understand it too."

"I'm not a narrow-minded person, and I don't resent the Qin family. When I have time in the future, Xiaoyin and I will go visit the Qin family."

This is not only Su Qi'an's innermost thoughts, but also what Qin Ziyin has always wanted to do.

Even though Qin Ziyin had been away from the Qin family for so many years and usually didn't say anything to Su Qi'an, on many nights, Qin Ziyin talked about his father and mother in his dreams more than once.

No matter how far you go, among all the children in the world, who will not miss home?

Although Su Qi'an was not angry, he would not go so far as to stop Qin Ziyin from returning home.

Being able to talk to the Qin family about what happened back then and take Qin Ziyin home can be regarded as an end to Su Qi'an's remaining obsession.

Qin Huai was very excited when Su Qi'an said this. For Su Qi'an to say such words, it could be said to be an icebreaker for the Qin family.

Based on the talent Su Qi'an showed at Wangyue Tower, Qin Huai knew that the genius prodigy who shocked Lingbei County back then was back.

Qin Huai laughed happily, looked at Su Qi'an and said, "Brother-in-law, based on your performance just now, I believe that you will definitely pass the high school in this county examination."

"But brother-in-law, I would like to remind you that your actions at Wangyue Tower have probably made Wei Yun and Song Wen resentful."

"Song Wen seems to be fine. My brother-in-law will take care of it for you. However, Wei Yun is a bit tricky. You should know that one of the examiners of this county examination is Wei Yun's uncle, the county magistrate of Sichuandu County."

"Brother-in-law, are you worried that they will try something in the county?" Su Qian said.

Qin Huai nodded, "Brother-in-law, don't underestimate Wei Yun. The Wei family in Sichuan not only has absolute say in the local area, but also ranks among the top three aristocratic families in the entire Sichuan Province."

"If we really need to use some hands and feet, I'm afraid it won't be difficult."

Qin Huai's face was solemn, and by this time Su Qian also understood the seriousness of the matter.

He really underestimated the strength of the Wei family. Thinking about it, even though Great Liang still held imperial examinations every year, the selection seemed fair.

In fact, the situation behind the scenes has long been rotten. Su Qi'an didn't understand the high-level county and imperial examinations, but the low-level provincial and county examinations only required people with deep enough connections in the county.

The possibility of secret manipulation is quite high. In some states, it has happened that the number of children and scholars in a county's rural examination were all controlled according to the instructions of a certain county and city family.

It is not an exaggeration to say that aristocratic families are in power. This is why, in the imperial examinations every year, those poor families fawn over the powerful families and even kneel down to lick them.

Who doesn't want to embrace a thick thigh so that he can rise to the top in the officialdom in the future? After so many years, a default unspoken rule has been formed.

In the poetry meeting at Wangyue Tower just now, he had already performed vividly and exquisitely.

Although he knew there would be such consequences, Su Qi'an did not regret it. It was not Su Qi'an's long-cherished wish to become an official in the imperial examination county.

On the one hand, he came to this county to take the exam to see the world, and on the other hand, he just didn't want to live up to Qin Ziyin's expectations.

If he was really rejected by secret manipulation, Su Qi'an wouldn't care. At worst, he would return to Dongshan Village and rely on his superb marksman skills.

There is no problem in surviving, and we can take this opportunity to plan Dongshan Village well. If something big happens in the future, we will at least have the ability to protect ourselves.

Su Qi'an's silence made Qin Huai think that Su Qi'an was worried, so he patted Su Qi'an on the shoulder and said comfortingly.

"Brother-in-law, it's okay. Since I can meet you in the county examination, my brother-in-law will do his best to prevent you from being wronged. Although Wei Yun has a strong background, if he really dares to be so blatant, there is nothing he can say.

We must let him know the price of offending the students in Lingbei County."

Qin Huai's voice is very soft, but very calm. In addition to making people feel domineering, it also makes people feel at ease.

Su Qi'an did not explain, nodded and said to Qin Huai, "Here, thank you brother-in-law."

Qin Huai waved his hand, as if he didn't care, and then Qin Huai stayed in Su Qian'an's room for half an hour before finding an opportunity to quietly leave the room.

Su Qi'an and Qin Huai discussed it and decided that their relationship should remain acquainted, which would be better for both parties.

If something happens then, Wei Yun will definitely be in for a big surprise.

At this time, Su Qi'an, who was staying in the room, probably wouldn't have imagined how much of a sensation his actions in Wangyue Tower would cause in Lingbei County.

The six lines of the poem Su Qi'an wrote earlier made countless students, aristocratic families, and big shots in the government feel his youthful arrogance and look at him with some suspicion.

The next four sentences of "Looking at the Moon" can be said to directly make Su Qi'an become a god in a battle. It is no exaggeration to say that the entire streets and lanes of Lingbei County are discussing Su Qi'an's "Four Sentences of Looking at the Moon", and even Su Qi'an's background and life experience have been revealed.

.

The main house of the county government office.

Fang Jingzhi looked at the four sentences about "Wang Yue" written in his hand with a smile on his face. Even at his age, Fang Jingzhi's heart was still filled with excitement.

After carefully savoring the four sentences of "Wang Yue", Fang Jingzhi couldn't help but say "good" three times in a row.

"This Su Qi'an is really a strange person gifted by God to our county. Even this county can't compare to his talent in these four sentences."

"Master Liu, have the poems Su Qi'an recited in Wangyue Tower been delivered to Xie Hou?" Fang Jingzhi sighed, suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked quickly.

Master Liu, who was standing beside him, nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir. After Mr. Su composed these lines of poetry, he copied them as soon as possible and sent them to Xie Hou."

"I guess Xiehou is in the same mood as your Excellency at this time."

"Well, that's good, that's good."

"Sir, Mr. Su's display of such amazing talents at Wangyue Tower naturally offended Wei Yun. My subordinates are afraid that before long, they will..."

"Humph, it doesn't matter. Wangyue Siju's mind, magnanimity, and style are worthy of the praise of the three princes, even if he looks at the court. Even if Wei Zhentang is protecting his shortcomings, he should understand which is more important."

"Send someone to the county seat quickly and tell the lord with these four sentences of "Wang Yue" that our Lingbei County has produced such a great talent. In this county examination, Lingbei County will definitely shine."

Then Fang Jingzhi's eyes turned and fell on Colonel Wang who was half kneeling on the ground below him, and he spoke.

"You have done a good job in Captain Wang's case this time. Su Qi'an must be protected during this period of time in this county. If he loses a hair, you know what will happen."
