Rebirth of the perfect brother-in-law

Chapter 10 War of Words

Yang Lin had no intention of letting Chu Nan go. She watched Xian'er go downstairs angrily, rolled up her sleeves, exposed her fair forearms, and shouted: "Ah, brother-in-law, I haven't been feeling well lately, can you help me too?"

Let me take a look. Um, is it high enough? If not, go higher?"

Chu Nan didn't dare to answer, so he had to smile at Yang Wan'er on the other side and said, "Wan'er is here too? I just want to go out more. Being bored at home all day long is not good for your health." Yang Wan is the third eldest child in the Yang family.

, has been extremely intelligent since she was a child, and has become a well-known talented woman in the capital at a young age. However, she has never had any contact with Chu Nan. In the past, she only nodded her head or said hello when she saw her, and Chu Nan couldn't figure out the purpose of her visit.

Yang Wan'er obediently bowed and said softly: "Hello, brother-in-law. I'm tired of reading. I came out with my second sister to get some fresh air."

Yang Lin looked at her accusingly, and Yang Wan'er immediately looked at Yang Lin with a look that asked for help. Chu Nan understood a little bit, and said weakly: "Um, Wan'er is looking for me for something?"

Yang Lin curled her lips and said: "Yes, Wan'er has something to ask you for, but she doesn't dare to come, so she begs me to help. We went to look for you early this morning, but we didn't expect you to be not at home. Humph, no

When I think of you hiding here and teasing other women, I must tell my sister when I get back."

Chu Nan was afraid of this tough sister-in-law, so he pretended not to hear what she said, took a sip of tea, and said to Yang Wan'er: "Wan'er, since you call me brother-in-law, we are a family. If you have anything to say, I can help you."

I will definitely help."

Yang Wan'er hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything, but Yang Lin couldn't stand it and slapped her in the face angrily. She said, "Looking at your soft temper, I'll do it for you."

"Say." He turned to Chu Nan and said: "My third sister has recently seen the gathering of scholars in the capital, and she also plans to participate in the Autumn Palace Competition. No, I will bring her to you to find a solution."

Chu Nan looked at Yang Wan'er in surprise and praised: "Wan'er is so ambitious. She is indeed a woman who can't be compared to men."

Yang Wan'er lowered her head shyly and said softly: "I don't know if I was obsessed or not. This idea suddenly came to me, and I kept thinking about it."

Chu Nan was a little confused: "Since the founding of Daliang, although there have been precedents for women to participate in the imperial examination, the system was not perfect at that time and the court did not care much about the imperial examination. Now that Daliang is becoming more and more stable, it is the time to employ people, and I want to check it.

It is also extremely strict, and it will not be easy if you want to get away with it."

Yang Wan'er looked gloomy and said: "Wan'er also heard that His Majesty ordered Academicians Wang and Su to be the main and secondary examiners of this scientific examination. He must be planning to select some pillars from the many scholars. There are also many scholars from various places.

He went after the two bachelors. After all, only by passing the exam can he be regarded as a disciple of the two bachelors. Wan'er has always been envious of Chu Yue's younger sister being able to worship under the sect of the bachelor Wang, so..."

Yang Lin was dissatisfied and said: "Brother-in-law, since we are here to find you, why do you still ask for help like this? I have already made a guarantee for you. Please give me an accurate answer quickly. I am too lazy to listen to this nonsense."

Chu Nan smiled bitterly, what guarantee are you making for me? My surname is neither Wang nor Su. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said to Yang Wan'er: "Don't be disappointed, Wan'er. This matter is not difficult to say. It's just to deceive others.

You'd better dress up in men's clothing. Archbishop Su is the most old-fashioned, and he always dislikes me. I'm going to beg Archbishop Wang to open up your joints and get a false identity. Well, three days, I'll give it to you within three days.

Accurate letter."

Yang Wan'er came here to seek help from Chu Nan. In addition to the thought of being a dead horse, it was mostly because of Yang Lin's force. Seeing that things were really going well, she couldn't help but said with joy: "Is it true, brother-in-law? Are you serious?

Are you sure? I heard that Academician Wang is also stern and does not show favoritism." The latter sentence made it clear that he did not believe that Chu Nan could persuade Wang Yangming.

Chu Nan sighed and said, "Mr. Yangming owed me a favor when he was a teacher at my house in the early years. I'm at least 90% sure of going this time."

Yang Wan'er said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, brother-in-law, I didn't mean that. Well, it's settled, brother-in-law, please, I'll put on men's clothes when the time comes."

Yang Lin giggled: "Pretend to be a man? I'm good at this, so I'll do it for you."

Chu Nan quickly waved his hand and persuaded: "Can you please stop causing trouble? Even a blind man like you can recognize that you are a Xibei guy. It's just that in the past, others were worried about your lack of face."

Yang Lin jumped up in anger, scratched at Chu Nan, and said angrily: "Is this person as unbearable as you said? You can't tell it!"

Chu Nan didn't want to get too close to Yang Lin in front of Yang Wan'er, so he reached out and slapped Yang Lin away, and said seriously: "Stop it, did you remember to take off your earrings when you pretended to be a man? Did you remember to cover your Adam's apple? Did you remember to wash it off?

Rouge on the face? This time it is of great importance. I will personally help Wan'er put on her makeup. If something goes wrong, it will not be a trivial matter."

Seeing that Chu Nan said it solemnly, Yang Lin did not dare to talk nonsense anymore and wrung her fingers to get sulky. However, Yang Wan'er looked at Chu Nan with bright eyes and said with a smile: "The second sister is indeed right, and the brother-in-law is really deep."

A master who hides everything."

Chu Nan glanced at Yang Lin and sneered: "Don't be stupid, there are so many extraordinary people. Don't listen to her nonsense."

Yang Lin snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "It's so hypocritical. Amber who served grandpa told me this. I don't believe that Amber would lie to me."

Chu Nan did not look at Yang Lin, but said to Yang Wan'er: "I know Wan'er's knowledge is not shallow, but the imperial examination is not as good as you girls' usual flirting. It's best to find an acquaintance to ask for advice during the examination.

The rules are of great benefit."

Yang Wan'er was very conceited, so she just said lightly: "Thank you brother-in-law, Wan'er took note of it."

Chu Nan couldn't see Yang Waner's inner dissatisfaction. It was just that some people on the wrong side of the road had to go through it themselves, especially Yang Waner, an eldest lady who had been raised in a boudoir since she was a child. He didn't bother to say more and chatted with the two sisters for a few words.

Seeing more and more scholars around, secretly and openly peeking at the three of them, he said hello to Xian'er, threw down a piece of silver and went downstairs.

The celebrity in front of the current emperor, Wang Yangming, the great scholar, is a world-famous scholar, a well-known capable minister, and the civil servant that His Majesty most relies on in the court. Normally, at this time, he usually stays with the emperor and participates in politics, but today Yangming

Mr. Yang was unwell and was recuperating at home. Those well-informed scholars rushed to the palace to visit him, but except for a few well-known scholars and a few fellow villagers of Mr. Yangming, they were all blocked.

Despite the entanglement of the scholars in every possible way, the servants refused to let in. Chu Nan finally squeezed his way to the front of the crowd, pulled Wang Yangming's former bookboy, now the housekeeper Xu Yunwen, and said: "Butler Xu, is your master here?

I have something to do with your master, please let me in quickly."

Xu Yunwen is no longer the submissive little book boy he was back then. When he saw someone tugging at him, his face dropped. When he saw that it was Chu Nan, he smiled bitterly and waved to let the servant go. The relationship between his master and the young master in front of him was very deep.

Ah, I didn't even dare to say: "Young Master Chu is shivering, I am not. Your Excellency is at home. I will order someone to take you in right now."

Many scholars who were making a lot of noise around them became even more excited when they saw the butler let in another person. They shouted loudly: "Didn't you say that the gentleman has no guests? Why did he let him in again? I want to come in, too. I want to come in too."

Enter!"

Xu Yunwen had a headache even more, and he began to explain earnestly. Unexpectedly, the scholars became more and more excited as they talked, and began to slowly squeeze in. Xu Yunwen was naturally weak-tempered, and he was sweating profusely in a hurry, but he couldn't help it.

Chu Nan was furious at the shouting of those scholars. He pulled Xu Yunwen to his side, pointed at the scholars, and said, "Can't you find a way to get rid of them? What's the point of letting them block the door?"

Butler Xu wiped the sweat from his face and said with a wry smile: "You think I don't want to, but there is really no way to get rid of it. I didn't even try to persuade anyone to leave."

Chu Nan looked at him with disdain and said: "Don't you have a powerful guardian at home? Call a few, knock down these scholars with the strength of a chicken in a few strokes, stuff them into a carriage and transport them outside the city.

"

Butler Xu sweated even more and said with a grin: "You don't know something. Since these people dare to come to see you, sir, most of them are talented scholars from various places. They cannot be beaten anyway. Look, then

It’s Mr. Mengchang Qi from the Qi family in Shandong, that one is the second son of the Shanxi Taoist Observer, and that one..."

Chu Nan spread his hands and muttered: "Why don't I recognize anyone? Forget it, let them make me upset. Master, I will help you drive them away."

Chu Nan walked up to the crowd and shouted "Shut up", but he did so with the power of a Buddhist lion's roar. It shocked Butler Xu next to him and made his head dizzy. The crowd also fell silent in an instant.

When everyone woke up and saw that it was the person who had been put in before, someone bravely said: "Why can you go in and we can't?"

Chu Nan glared at the man coldly and snorted: "Stop talking nonsense, it's in vain that you are still scholars. Those books of sages have been read into the stomachs of dogs? Tell me, which sage taught you to behave like this?"

I’m not afraid of embarrassing the scholars either.”

Someone walked out of the crowd, saluted Chu Nan, and said loudly: "Students have admired Mr. Yangming for a long time. They traveled for three months just to ask for his advice. Today, I heard that Mr. Yang was not feeling well, so I came here to say hello.

And please give me some advice from Mr. Nengde. Brother, please don’t misunderstand us.”

There was a sound of agreement in the crowd, and Chu Nan said disdainfully: "Yishui's bullshit logic. According to what you said, the gentleman is not related to you, and it is entirely up to him to decide whether to give advice or not. You are blocking the door and making trouble, but

Isn't it wrong to force him to give you advice? This is one. Second, as you said, Mr. Wang is not feeling well, and you are making so much noise, how can he recover? His illness is taken care of by his own family doctor.

, What does it have to do with you? Why do you need to greet me? Thirdly, you are so eager to see Mr. Wang, probably because you hope to use his reputation to gain a good future, and you also call it guidance. Hum, Confucius has a saying

How do you say this? I would like to ask you to teach me how to explain it. A gentleman says that a sick man wants to do what he wants, but he must do it."

Chu Nan underestimated the thickness of those people's skin. They were all refuting Chu Nan's words one by one, quoting scriptures at the top of their lungs. Chu Nan had to use the lion's roar technique to shock them, and said impatiently: "With you guys

It really makes my head hurt to argue with a scholar who is stupid about reading like this. Butler Xu, open the door, ask the servants to get out of the way, and let Mr. Wang look at the appearance of these saints' children, and see if he will be so angry that he vomits blood."

The scholars kept pestering the housekeepers, but no one really dared to disturb Wang Yangming without knowing the etiquette. Seeing that no one dared to go in after hesitating for a long time, Chu Nan said warmly: "That's right. That's good, since you guys

As a talented man, he must carry his most famous works with him. Forget it, I will hand it in for you. Don't worry, sir will definitely take a look."

Those scholars all obeyed and handed over their poems. After a while, Chu Nan's arms were full of rice paper manuscripts. A scholar handed over his poems, glanced at Chu Nan and muttered: "What is your relationship with Mr.

?Why do you get such preferential treatment?"

Chu Nan sorted out the manuscripts in his arms and snorted coldly: "I once visited a brothel with Bachelor Wang. What do you think our relationship is?"
