Chapter 895 Casting a Wide Net

County Magistrate Kang winked at Master Lu.

Master Lu asked his son to go quietly to find Kang Rong.

Unfortunately, Kang Yong pointed at Master Lu's son and said, "That guy, you are from the man's side, right? You want to sneak in before we even get through the door-blocking ceremony. You're clearly looking down on our woman's family. Classmates, gather together and beat him up!"

County Magistrate Kang/Mrs. Kang lowered her head... We must not let anyone know that this boy is a relative of theirs.

"Master Kang, please calm down. I will retreat now." Master Lu's son hurriedly retreated to the side of the wedding procession and did not show up again, so as to avoid being caught by Kang Yong.

Master Lu could only ask Master Jing for help: "Master Jing, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to help me."

But Old Qiong smiled and said, "The Qin family is a valuable asset. The groom must go through the nine door-blocking rituals before welcoming the bride and concluding the friendship between the two families."

After hearing this, Kang Rong felt that he had been promoted from a small helper to a member of the bride's family. He was immediately very proud. He put one hand on his waist and pointed at the clerks and others: "Humph, all of you should behave properly. You can only welcome the bride after you have gone through the nine gate-blocking rites!"

Master Jing: “…”

The brat is so bold as to go to the sky if you give him some face.

However, the youthful spirit is the most precious, so Mr. Jing followed his students.

Kang Yong began to find fault: "Groom, your wedding poem was prepared in advance, so it doesn't count as sincerity... Just use the theme of autumn fruits and write a wedding poem within a hundred to show the man's sincerity in marrying you!"

County Magistrate Kang/Mrs. Kang...this guy is really rude.

Just do it. If the news about you blocking the customs clerk from getting married gets back to the capital, your father Kang Li will ask him whether he will beat you or not!

"Okay, An Nong accepts it." Guan Shuli accepted the challenge and began to prepare to compose a wedding poem on the spot.

"Keep counting, keep counting. Don't let him exceed the time limit. If he exceeds the time limit by one number, one level will be added!" Kang Rong shouted. He was really, super excited.

……

At the Qin family's shop, Qin Jingyi, Jiang Xiaozhu, Xiao Fubao, and Yao Baimei came back to inform the Qin family, telling them about the students setting up a task to stop the wedding procession.

Jiang Xiaozhu complained about Kang Rong: "That student is more concerned about getting married than me."

Little Fubao nodded in agreement: "Yeah yeah yeah."

Hahaha!

The women in the room laughed out loud.

Grandma Qin said hurriedly: "Children's words are not to be taken lightly. Xiaozhu is still young."

My dear, please be a lady and don’t say such things. It’s bad for your reputation!

Han Zhou, the wife of Master Han, was a little worried: "Most of those students are from Taizhou Academy. They have studied with famous teachers since childhood and their knowledge is extraordinary. If they set questions to block the way, can the groom withstand it?"

These young masters are a bit ignorant. Guan Shuli and Qin Xiaogu are already very old and have finally gotten married, but they still come out to play.

After hearing this, Qin Xiaogu also looked worried.

Qin Xiaomi was fed with dog food again when she saw this... Her aunt looked so nervous, it seemed that she really liked Guan Shuli.

Qin Xiaogu has always been a calm person, and she quickly smiled and said, "It's okay, everyone knows their limits."

Qin Xiaomi nodded in agreement: "My aunt is right, and with Master Xun here, the students and young masters won't be able to cause any trouble."

If it really doesn't work, they will send someone to urge them, saying that if they let the groom in to welcome the bride earlier, the bride can be sent off earlier, and they can finish work earlier and have the banquet.

Kang Rong, who didn't expect this, cried to death!

After hearing this, the female relatives felt relieved and were in the mood to watch the show. They asked Qin Jingyi and Xiao Fubao to go out and see what was going on and then report back to them.

"Well, let's go and ask right away." Xiao Fubao said, and he called Yiger and Jiang Xiaozhu and ran away quickly.

"This child is so well raised, he is sturdy and lively, and looks like a blessed child." Mrs. Zhou, a blessed person, praised.

After hearing this, Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao were very happy and thanked her together: "Thank you very much for your kind words."

Xiao Fubao's parents are both dead, so ordinary families would avoid him when it comes to wedding beds.

Therefore, he did not earn any wedding money from Guan Shuli and Qin Xiaogu's wedding, and was very sad about it. Fortunately, he recovered soon.

But the elders like Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao kept it in mind, so after hearing what Mrs. Zhou said, they happily thanked her.

Mrs. Zhou didn't say much, just smiled kindly.

……

A quarter of an hour later, da da da, Xiao Fubao and his friends came running back again. Before they even rushed into the backyard, they shouted, "Uncle Guan is so amazing. He broke through three levels in a row. The students are so anxious!"

The three kids were not exaggerating; the students were indeed extremely anxious.

The students really didn't expect that Guan Shuli's knowledge could be as vast as the sea and as deep as the abyss.

Therefore, Qiushi, Hemei and Xingjia wrote three wedding poems in succession. Xun Laojing also spoke for him and helped him pass the test with just one poem.

There are nine rituals at the door, and three of them have been completed.

Two quarters of an hour later, Xiao Fubao and his friends came back to report: "Playing chess, Wei Lu, breaking the mechanism, Uncle Guan has passed it again, and is now at the seventh level, but the students haven't decided what questions to give Uncle Guan."

"The students are really no match for me. They are no match for Uncle Guan alone."

"Some students even slipped away when they saw that the situation was not going well."

"That Young Master Kang also wanted to escape, but was caught by Old Master Xun. He lost all his face."

The three little guys complained about the students, making the female relatives laugh.

Kang Rong had indeed lost face. County Magistrate Kang and Mrs. Kang had already decided not to let anyone know about their relationship for a while.

It's so embarrassing.

And for Kang Lang, who was helping the Guan family entertain guests at Taifu Restaurant, the sky had fallen.

He was working honestly when he suddenly heard the guests in the lobby laughing at someone: "That young master Kang is really a troublemaker and irresponsible man. It's so shameful. If I had a son like that, I would hang him up and beat him up!"

Some students also called him "Classmate Kang".

The guests in the lobby all looked at him with strange expressions.

Kang Lang hurriedly clarified: "I am Kang Lang, the son of the county magistrate Kang. I have been helping the Guan family and have never been to the Qin family."

Remember my name, don't confuse me with that thing!

The guests exclaimed, suddenly realizing: "So he is the son of the county magistrate... and both of you have the surname Kang? So you are brothers of the same generation from the same clan?"

This could not be denied, so Kang Lang went back to the kitchen and hid.

……

Boom boom boom!

Boom boom boom!

After noon, the clerk passed the nine gate rituals and led the wedding procession into the Qin family's house.

The students had lost nine games in a row, and they had to continue working on an empty stomach to entertain the guests from the wedding procession, and they were also being whispered about by crickets.

"Are most of these students really scholars? How did they pass the exam? Did they cheat?"

Shut up!

You are the one who cheated, we passed the exam with real skills!

How could we know that a small clerk in a shabby village was actually such an all-rounder? !

but……

The students looked at Kang Rong.

Ah, I feel better.

Even though they are miserable, don’t they still have Kang Rong to support them?

In addition to feeling humiliated and frustrated, many students also noticed Guan Shuli.

In particular, Ying Zilin had planned to find time to visit Guan Shuli and discuss academic matters with him.

Also, ask him if he wants to become an official. If so, his family may be able to help him.

It's a waste of talent to be a small clerk in a small country town.

But Ying Zilin didn't know that one of the goals of Duke Yan, Jing Lao and Xun Lao was to let them fight against the Guan Shu Li and get this result.

Although Guan Shuli himself didn't know about this, but with such a background, he had to go now that he was needed.

Anyway, now is the selection stage of casting a wide net.

In short, Emperor Wuxing was very strong-willed. When he cast a wide net in his selection, he would not choose princes whose maternal bloodline was contrary to his ambitions.
