After hearing this, Mrs. Sheng had a look of disapproval. Sheng Hong only saw the wealth and comfort of Earl Zhongqin's house, but she didn't know how many fights there were in the lord's house and where it was so easy to get into. If Hualan really

After getting married, because of her low family background, she was afraid that she would be wronged every day. Thinking of this, Mrs. Sheng quickly objected.

"Did you know that the Countess of Earl Zhongqin's Mansion is extremely displeased with her eldest son and favors her second son? Our family's background is lower than theirs. If Hua Lan marries her, it will definitely not be easy. It's not as good as you think.

good!"

Sheng Hong didn't know these secrets. Mrs. Sheng was from the Hou Mansion. Although she had severed ties with the Yongyi Hou Mansion, she had a very deep understanding of these lords' families and knew the general situation of each family. Sheng Hong now heard

These were shocked, I didn't expect there was this level, and I felt a little regretful.

"My son was careless. He didn't expect there to be such a secret. I would like to thank my mother for reminding me!"

Mrs. Sheng waved her hand and did not accept Sheng Hong's compliment, but said seriously.

"In the end, we are a family. Hualan is my granddaughter. I naturally hope that she will live well in the future!"

Sheng Hong nodded in agreement. He did not doubt the truth of what Old Mrs. Sheng said. After all, he was Old Mrs. Sheng's son. He would be the one who would serve as Mrs. Sheng's filial piety for hundreds of years. Even if Old Mrs. Sheng was not close to him,

, and will never harm him, only help him.

Sheng Hong sat on the Taishi chair, frowning and thinking deeply. Although he was still a little undecided about what he said to Mrs. Sheng, the balance in his heart had already tilted towards the idea mentioned by Mrs. Sheng. He thought about it secretly, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Old Mrs. Sheng who was waiting for him to make a decision. He gritted his teeth and clapped his palms, making a "pop" sound. He stood up suddenly and replied to Old Mrs. Sheng.

"This matter is settled like this. I will discuss it with the eldest lady on Hualan's side. On Zhan'er's side, I want you, mother, to make the decision!"

When Mrs. Sheng heard this, she beamed with joy, the wrinkles on her face spread, and she laughed.

"Okay, you just need to make up your mind and leave Zhan'er to me. But there's no need to rush this matter. It's best to wait until Zhan'er is named on the gold list next year before making a decision. You and the eldest lady can also make preparations.

Save yourself the time of being too busy!”

Sheng Hong nodded repeatedly and complimented Mrs. Sheng.

"What mother said is that this is the mature and prudent way. The most important thing now is Zhan'er's studies. We can talk about everything else later!"

Mrs. Sheng nodded and said a little tiredly.

"Let's talk about this today. When you go back, talk to the eldest lady and ask her to change her mind. She can no longer have feelings for Zhan'er, otherwise it will not be good for Hua Lan in the future!"

Sheng Hong's face turned red when he heard this. He knew that Mrs. Sheng was asking Wang Ruofu to give him a boost. In fact, he and Wang Ruofu didn't care much about Li Zhan, so they maintained a superficial enthusiasm without much enthusiasm.

Now that I want to recruit him as my son-in-law, I naturally can't be as indifferent as before. I have to care more about Li Zhan, all for the sake of my daughter's future happiness.

At this time, Li Zhan was thanking his teachers and gathering with his classmates. Little did he know that Mrs. Sheng had already decided a life-long event for him.

By the time Li Zhan returned to Sheng Mansion, it was already evening, and he celebrated with everyone in Sheng Mansion, and did not rest until midnight. At this family banquet in Sheng Mansion, Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu's attitude towards him

It's strange that Sheng Hong was a little too enthusiastic, just like his own child who was in high school. Wang Ruofu secretly looked at him in the dark several times. Every time he looked up, Wang Ruofu didn't look away.

, just smiled awkwardly at Li Zhan, leaving Li Zhan confused and confused.

Early the next morning, Li Zhan returned to his usual calm state. He practiced martial arts and studied without any changes. He was preparing for next year's provincial examination with all his strength. However, since yesterday, Sheng Hong often came to Shou'an Hall to pay his respects, and he and Li Zhan also visited each other more often.

He often communicated with Li Zhan and gave him advice and care, which made Li Zhan puzzled, but he didn't think much about it and accepted the other party's kindness.

Wang Ruofu also often cared about his daily meals, and from time to time ordered the embroiderers in the mansion to help make some clothes. Li Zhan didn't take it seriously and accepted them all.

In the blink of an eye, the time has arrived in the coldest month of winter. Li Zhan is dancing with a large iron gun weighing dozens of kilograms in his hand. He lifts the weight lightly, as if he can't feel the weight. When he moves his steps, the iron gun in his hand keeps thrusting out, and the ones standing upright next to him are thrust out.

The wooden stakes were pierced one after another with the spearhead, creating a hole as big as a bowl. It was transparent from the front to the back and the power was astonishing.

Li Zhan kept walking and rushed forward. The big gun in his hand was invincible and swept away the wooden stakes in front of him. His body was exuding white heat, his skin was hot and red, and he kept spitting out foul air from his mouth until

After rushing out of the wood pile forest, he paused and his feet immediately sank into the ground. The thousand-layer cloth shoes on his feet suddenly exploded into pieces.

Li Zhan casually threw the iron gun in his hand towards the weapon shelf and inserted it into the hole. He raised his feet and walked on the cold ground with his bare feet. He slowly exhaled an arrow. It was three feet long and flat.

My heart beat violently and I walked towards Shouan Hall.

During this period, he broke through twice again and completed seven muscle-changing and bone-forging exercises. If he stepped into the realm of marrow cleansing at this time, he would definitely not be inferior to Li Cunxiao, the number one warrior in the late Tang Dynasty and Five Dynasties.

Li Cunxiao was a heroic general under the command of King Li Keyong of the Jin Dynasty in the late Tang Dynasty. He was also one of Li Keyong's many "adopted sons". Because he was the thirteenth, he was called the "Thirteen Taibao", and he was also the most famous among the Thirteen Taibao.

Li Cunxiao was the most powerful general in the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties due to his great strength, bravery and fighting skills, invincible in the world, and was invincible in all battles. He was as famous as Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, and was known as "the general is no better than Li, and the king is no more than the hegemon."

In the comments of later generations, there is even more: "There was Li Yuanba in the early Tang Dynasty, and Li Cunxiao in the late Tang Dynasty. They both hated the sky for having no handles, and hated the earth for having no rings." This means that if the sky had a handle, they could pull down the sky and the earth.

If there are rings, they can lift the earth.

It can be seen that Li Zhan's martial arts skills can now be said to be invincible, but no one knows about it. After all, who would have thought that the gentle, handsome and elegant young man Jie Yuanlang in front of him would be a peerless warrior.

After the first lunar month of the New Year and before the beginning of spring, Li Zhan packed his bags and set foot on Bianjing, followed by the old servants of the Sheng Mansion, preparing to settle down in Kyoto and wait for the provincial examination to start.

Transportation is inconvenient in this era, so every time students go to Beijing to take the exam, they will leave more than half a year in advance to avoid accidents on the way, delaying the trip and missing the scientific exam, which is not worth the gain.

Li Zhan set out relatively late at this time. Fortunately, Sheng Hong hired a boat for him and went all the way to Bianjing along the river. He arrived in Bianjing in about half a month and stayed in the old residence of the Sheng family in Bianjing.
