Chapter 2122 Is Meng Yuncheng Casting a Wide Net?

But Meng Yunzheng is special. He used to be Gongqiu's son, but later he exposed Gongqiu's crimes and avenged his mother.

The late emperor wanted to reward him, but he refused and went home directly.

As soon as he left, many people stopped paying attention to him, thinking that he really wanted to inherit his father's business and plan to go back to being a bodyguard.

Unexpectedly, he went to take the imperial examination. Step by step, starting from the county examination, he passed all the tests and was invincible, winning four yuan in a row. In just three years, he went to Beijing to take the exam as Jieyuan.

This is talent, and future achievements cannot be underestimated.

Many people know that after Meng Yunzheng learned about Yuan in his hometown examination, some people wanted to contact him at that time.

However, they soon found out that during the chaos in Changjin Mansion last year, Meng Yunzheng had been working beside Qi Lie.

They thought that he had already taken refuge with Qi Lie early on. Who knew that Qi Lie had become seriously ill at the end of last year, and Meng Yunzheng had not visited Qi Lie since he came to the capital some time ago.

Not only did he not come to offer condolences, he also visited Taifu Qi, Lord Jing of Dali Temple, Lord Yao, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and even had dinner with Xiang Weinan, the eldest son of the Earl's Palace.

In short, it looks like he is moving around.

Everyone was wondering, did Meng Yunzheng see that Qi Lie would not recover for a long time, so he did not plan to follow him, but instead turned to others, or even cast a wide net?

So soon someone came to my door with a greeting card, wanting to make further acquaintance with Meng Yunzheng.

These people don't care whether Meng Yunzheng is ungrateful or has character problems. They only think that Meng Yunzheng is ambitious and capable. He can bring down Gongqiu and pass the exam all the way. He definitely has that ability and will be a great help in the future.

But those who came to see Meng Yunzheng didn't have very high status.

For example, the Yibo Mansion that we came to today has the title of earl but no real power.

Speaking of the Yibo Mansion, Xia Yan lowered her voice, "This Yibo Master not only wants to make friends with our young master, he also wants to marry their daughter to the young master."

Seeing Shu Yu's expression change, Xia Yan immediately clarified, "But don't worry, girl, the young master is not interested in other women at all. They are all very passionate."

"Don't they know that Ayun is engaged?"

"Why don't you know? The young master has long said that he will get married this year, but they don't care." In this world, how many people have gained fame and wealth and abandoned their wives and children, let alone a fiancée who has never even gotten married.

So what if Shu Yu is the county head? The county leader is still good at the local level, but in this capital city, he is nothing.

What's more, Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu have been engaged for three years. If you can get married, can you wait as long as three years? Meng Yuncheng is already twenty-three or four years old, and has long passed the age of marriage.

Shu You listened with an angry look on his face, "These people don't have any sense of etiquette, justice or shame anymore. They have read so many books by sages, and they are not as reasonable as an old country woman."

Zhao Xi nodded repeatedly, "My lady is right."

"But it's okay now." Xia Yan said happily, "The girl is here, and she happened to be seen by the servants of the Yibo Mansion. I think if they want to save face, they won't come to disturb her again."

At this time, Xiayan didn't know that just because the boy saw Shu Yu, rumors about Shu Yu began to fly all over the next day.

But at this moment, Shu Yu was focused on another thing, "Did you just say that Qi Lie was seriously ill?"
