And indeed, as he thought, since the list came out, the Liu family had received news and the reaction was quite fierce.

Some people are angry because their children are so unsuccessful, while others are looking at the name of the second place on the list and start to think and recall.

"Liu Xiuping, it is said that he is also a child of our Liu family, why do you seem to have never heard of it before?"

Old Master Liu got up early in the morning for today's announcement. His health was not very good, and the doctor also told him to rest more. However, when he got the Liu family's children ranked second on the list, he still insisted on it. At this moment, he sat on the high hall and took the list printed by the people next to him, slowly swept over the names one by one, and finally fell on the second place.

His eyes were deep, as if he had thought for a while, he placed the paper aside, turned his head to look at the acting head of the family, Liu Hongyu, the eldest son of the third house.

"Where is Xiuping? Let him come to see me."

The old man's voice was plain, but his tone was particularly concerned about Liu Xiuping, and he even called him his name directly. This was the attitude of many juniors in the mansion!

This alone can basically judge the old man's consideration in his mind.

"We must focus on cultivating this person!"

Liu Hongyu felt a stern and hurriedly urged his servants to find Liu Xiuping who came out of nowhere, but don't let the old man wait for a long time.

He had already made up his mind that no matter which room Liu Xiuping was from, he would have to have a good relationship. After all, the old man's attitude can tell everything.

The position of his generation's head of the family is not stable now, and that child is likely to be the real head of the Liu family in the future!

But the man's calculation is not as good as the God's calculation, so the servant sent to find a man soon came back. He leaned into his ear with an uneasy expression and whispered a few times. In an instant, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at the old man with a look of guilt.

"What's wrong?" Old Master Liu frowned, a little dissatisfied.

"Then Liu Xiuping was a bastard born to his eldest brother after drinking and a maid..." Liu Hongyu said carefully, telling him about Liu Xiuping's affairs.

Among such high-ranking families who pay the most attention to blood, children like this who live with the lower family are not considered orthodox children of the Liu family at all, and can basically be considered outsiders with the surname Liu.

And what will happen to such a child in the future is probably decided by the old man’s thoughts...

Old Master Liu also frowned a little deeper, and he gently tapped the table with his fingertips as if he had thought for a long time, but he sighed quietly. His face, which was already full of wrinkles, seemed to be a little old, as if he had compromised with something. "Hongyu, go and send someone to compile the name of the woman into my Liu family genealogy. From then on, she will be the concubine who was married by Jingtai Ming. In addition, quickly find the child. My Liu family... has not had an outstanding child for too long."

"clear!"

Liu Hongyu's face turned right, and while sighing in his heart that the child was lucky, he hurriedly gave the order, for fear that if it was delayed, it would cause the old man's dissatisfaction.

Unfortunately, the younger generations of the Liu family are so unbearable that it is rare that such an outstanding younger generation will be taken so seriously!

After a while, Liu Xiuping, who had been standing by the window and waiting quietly in the inn, seemed to feel something. He looked down and saw the Liu family members carrying sedan chairs appearing at the other end of the street market. The corners of his mouth were slightly curled up, and soon turned into a grin and laughed. His body leaned against the window frame and kept trembling. He was almost exaggerated and crazy but a little desolate and lonely.

As he smiled, a few tears fell from the corners of his eyes. He looked up at the sky and murmured to himself.

"Mom, I finally did it..."

In the Su Mansion, Sheng Yunting, who had finally gotten rid of the shackles of the county test, finally got free in his busy schedule. He finally came to the Su family to take a good rest and take a breath.

Seeing that he looked like an old god, Du Bai asked curiously, "How are you doing in the exam?"

"What else can it do?" Sheng Yunting said he was indifferent, "Of course he failed the exam! What a shitty county test? If my parents hadn't forced me to go, I wouldn't be willing to take a look."

It is expected that the candidates failed. If this unemployed guy can stand out among hundreds of candidates, he would doubt whether the IQ of others is too low.

However, he was also a little confused, "Is uncle and aunt not punishing you?"

"No, that's not." Sheng Yunting thought for a while, as if he felt a little strange, but he did not take this matter to heart, but instead talked about some interesting things he heard.

"I heard that the second place in the county exam this year was actually from the Liu family. This is really strange. The Liu family is almost ruined. Those peers who go shopping in brothels and drink wine all day long can even produce such a powerful person..."

Although Sheng Yunting disdains the imperial examination, he still admires those who are truly capable, such as the Liu family.

"Oh?" Du Bai was practicing calligraphy and slightly paused, "People from the Liu family? Do you know the name of that person?"

Sheng Yunting recalled, "It seems that his name is Liu Xiuping. He was not a famous person before. I had never even heard of this name before. However, after hearing rumors in the market, it seems that this person was born as a maid. He was not loved since childhood, and he was even called as a slave. Now that he became famous, he was immediately taken back as a treasure by the Liu family, intending to be trained as a heir..."

"Tsk tsk, it sounds like the beginning of some legendary stories."

"Liu Xiuping..." Du Bai felt thoughtful.

Although I don’t know the name of the Liu family boy before, such a bumpy experience is quite similar, and being able to win the second place in this county examination is indeed like the one who is righteous.

Keeping this in mind, he has made up his mind to find time to meet this person.

But this time, it was not to recruit the other party, but to question why the other party wanted to kill those innocent demon clans so much!

Whether it is the human race or the demon race, he does not want to see such indiscriminate killing.

But something was unexpected. He probably had no time in the past two days because something new happened in the ghost town.

While still in the daytime, he sensed that the peach blossom demon was calling him, as if he had something important to report.

He knew that the other party would not disturb him for no reason, so he hurriedly arranged what he had in his hands and then changed his perspective to the Ghost King's clone, and immediately received her voice transmission.

When he learned the whole story, he was shocked and surprised.

Because there was actually a ghost king from another ghost town who came to visit!

This was definitely something he expected!.
