C268 They Met in a Restaurant

A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Zhang Ying had nothing better to do in the courtyard, so she disguised herself and secretly snuck onto the street with her two bodyguards, Guan Zao and Guan You.

The scene in Huainan City was not bad. She found a restaurant and ordered a few dishes. Then, she poured herself a cup of wine and drank it.

She heard a few scholars discussing at the side. One of them said, "This is the first time the Imperial Examinations are being carried out this year, so you didn't try it."

Another said with a smile, "Who knows if this is true or not? How can there be such a good thing? Let us Humble Class also have a day to shine."

At this time, a person on the table said, "Brother, what you said is wrong. King Huainan has repeatedly implemented new policies, and he loves the people like a son. For the sake of the people of this world, he did not hesitate to lose the position of Crown Prince.

He has always been incompatible with the various great families, and he has always been thinking about us, Humble Class. What do we have to doubt about such a benevolent king?

I, Duan Xin, am worried that I have come from Holy Water Academy and am currently living in Jade Spring College. We, the Holy Water Academy, have a total of eighty-six people from Humble Class, all for the sake of this Imperial Examinations.

We are willing to be the pioneers for all scholars in the world and also to explore a path for Humble Class. However, I think that this Imperial Examinations system will be very difficult to implement.

Those scholars will definitely punish us verbally because this system will shake the foundation of the aristocratic families. As for us, if we, Humble Class, do not stand up at this time, we are truly unworthy of being a son."

Duan Xinchou's words were loud and clear. Those few people immediately blushed with embarrassment. Each of them was submissive and showed that he was extraordinary.

Zhang Ying lightly clapped her hands and said, "Brother, you are right. However, I feel that you can't beat the aristocratic families to death. This is the aristocratic families, and most of them are good people."

Duan Xinchou smiled and said, "I think this brother is also a member of the aristocratic families. Then I won't argue with you. The people in this world are dirty, and the people who are clean are clean. You just need to take a look outside and you will know whether what I said is right or not."

Zhang Ying smiled and said, "I don't think what you said is wrong. There are indeed many profligate sons in the aristocratic families, but you think that the imperial examination system can really cure the root of the problem.

Take brother as an example. If you pass the Imperial Examinations and become a high official, then your family will definitely rise. Wouldn't that make you a new family? What's the difference between you and those old ones?"

Duan Xinchou clearly had some thoughts in his heart. He chuckled and said," Looks like miss still hasn't seen the nature of the Imperial Examinations clearly. Although a new family will appear through the Imperial Examinations, this will also be a huge impact to the old families.

And because the new family doesn't have special privileges, in order for the family to prosper, they must strictly manage the children of the family. At the very least, they must read sage books. Otherwise, they will be eliminated in the end.

And if this kind of examination continues for generation after generation, they will continuously accumulate miscellaneous knowledge. In the end, only the elites will remain. Although it won't completely eliminate this stubborn disease, it will at least reduce the harm to the minimum.

Compared to the two disadvantages, I think that this imperial examination system is an unprecedented innovation. Along with the rise of this system, it will inevitably lead to the extinction of the aristocratic families."

Zhang Ying was rendered speechless by Duan Xinchou's words. However, she thought about it and said," Brother's words are indeed filled with wisdom and filled me with admiration. However, I don't know why you called me Miss just now. "

Sun Yunfeng, who was beside Duan Xinchou, laughed loudly and said, "With one look, I can tell that Miss has been in her room for a long time. Even if she comes out to walk around, she should be high and mighty.

Look at your attire. The two ear holes are very obvious. A strand of black hair is faintly discernible. Do you think we are blind or do you think we are stupid? "

Zhang Ying's pretty face instantly turned red. Duan Xinchou hurriedly berated Sun Yunfeng and said, "Junior, you mustn't be so rude. How did Sage Book teach us? How can we make fun of others? Quickly admit your mistake to the lady."

Sun Yunfeng stood up and bowed. "Little Sheng was too rash just now. I hope that the lady doesn't mind."

Guan Cong slammed the table with force and said loudly, "You think it's over with just one sentence? Our lady is a heaven's proud daughter. How can we allow you to tease her? Look, I'll break all your teeth right now."

Duan Xinchou snorted coldly and said, "This is the Huainan. Everyone is equal. You'd better put away the style of your family. My junior is indeed wrong, but he has already admitted his mistake to you. If you want to make a move, then I'll keep you company until the end. "

Guan You shouted loudly, "You brat, you still dare to be stubborn, take a punch from me."

As he spoke, he lifted his fist that was the size of a clay pot and directly punched out. This punch was also full of force. Duan Xinchou's expression did not change as he casually waved his sleeve and hit the fist.

The two of them grunted at the same time and each took two steps back. They were both secretly surprised by the other's cultivation level, so they cautiously did not attack again.

Zhang Ying shouted in a lovely voice, "Who asked the two of you to be so talkative here? Hurry up and move to the side. My two servants are both reckless people. I hope Young Master Duan doesn't mind. "

Duan Xinchou snorted from his nose and said, "I think it's because I'm used to being arrogant and despotic. Fortunately, I have some skills. Otherwise, that punch just now would have taken my life.

I'll advise the young lady here. Huainan isn't a place where you can behave atrociously. I'm in Jade Spring College. If you want to cause trouble, I'll accompany you at any time. " After saying that, he turned around and left.1

Zhang Ying looked at the two of them who had left. A trace of spirit flashed across her eyes. She turned around and said to the Guan brothers, "This isn't South Hua. You two are really idiots. Why aren't you following me back?"

On the way, Sun Yunfeng said to Duan Xin with worry, "That girl just now was obviously a noble person. Senior even told her where he lived. Would it cause unnecessary trouble?"

Duan Xinchou snorted and said, "I believe that in a place like Huainan, everyone is reasonable. If it really gets into the government's hands and protects them, then we don't have to stay in Huainan."

Sun Yunfeng quickly said, "But Jade Spring College has a special status in Huainan. The young master of the dean, Zhou Qing, is King Huainan's chief strategist. I think those people won't dare to act rashly."

Duan Xinchou frowned slightly and said, "Junior, don't say such things again. We need to rely on ourselves, not those so-called external objects. If you keep having such thoughts, how can you make further progress?"

Sun Yunfeng was also a straightforward scholar. He smiled and nodded, but then he said, "I didn't ask for the name of that lady just now. This lady looks quite handsome. She seems to be a match made in heaven with senior."

Duan Xinchou smiled and shook his head. However, Zhang Ying's appearance unconsciously appeared in his mind.
