But as the old saying goes, raising a tiger will eventually lead to trouble, so the family felt that he should be killed to avoid future troubles.

So you sent a group of family members to hunt the tiger in the backyard. When the tiger was not at home, you wanted to demolish his yard so that it would never come back.

But don’t forget that the tiger is the king of beasts. He also has bears, wolves, and leopards to help him guard the yard, and there are many, many more...

As a result, a group of family members rushed in with sticks, but did not dare to take action and came back in despair.

So the current situation is that although the tiger still helps you look after your house, it has led a group of ferocious jackals and bears to occupy your backyard. It will be very difficult for you to snatch him back and kill him, and many people will die.

But if you don’t take it back, the backyard is obviously yours!

Later, you learned that the tiger gave birth to tiger cubs and hid them in the tiger's den. So when the tiger came out of the yard and got tired of you in the inner house, you didn't dare to kill him, for fear that his tiger cubs would come and bite you to death.

And now, a mad dog appeared in another yard. It howled and wanted the dog to jump over the wall and come out to bite people. The dogs in other yards also started whining, and there were signs of swarming up and biting people.

But several of your strong family members are not at home, and they are too anxious to kill the mad dog. At this time, the tiger takes the initiative to help you. What do you think you can do?

The best way is to give the backyard directly to the tiger, and then let it help him look after the house and protect the yard, and scare the dogs. Otherwise, what else?

Of course, after all my family members come back and the family affairs are settled, it will not be too late to think of ways to go into the courtyard to hunt tigers...

If I explain it this way, you guys will understand the basic relationship between Li Wanjiang and Xiao Chen, right?

Xiao Chen became the Marquis of Yanyun, and then became the deputy commander of the army to conquer the rebels. However, he could not succeed in becoming the academic and political examiner.

Li Wanjiang ordered Li Shiquan to take charge of the Ministry of Rites and be responsible for the examination. Langya County is in chaos, but Fengyang City cannot be in chaos. The Spring Festival will be held on time next year.

Li Shi asked the emperor for instructions on how to deal with the candidates from Langya County. Li Wanjiang asked Xiao Chen for his opinion, because Xiao Chen was still studying politics.

Xiao Chen's suggestion was beyond everyone's expectations. He thought that our court might as well be a little more generous. The candidates from Langya County can also participate in the examination as usual, without arrest, trial or questioning. .

The main reason is that these officials still don't know the news about Langya County's rebellion, and many of the officials' sons don't know about it either, otherwise they might have run away long ago.

This at least illustrates one problem, that is, Duan Fengnian's rebellion was quite hasty.

Although this caught Li Wanjiang off guard, he himself was also ill-prepared and there would definitely be many hidden dangers in the future...

Li Wanjiang felt that Xiao Chen's words made sense, so he ordered him to handle it at his own discretion. Anyway, this was a small matter and had nothing to do with the overall situation.

Xiao Chen was busy for a whole day, and did not return home until dusk with a tired look on his face. Fatty Ling'er and the others set up a hot pot in his room and were feeding Yunxiu.

"What the hell!" Xiao Chen came back and sat down and began to curse, "This bastard Duan Fengnian will rebel sooner rather than later, but he rebels at this time!"

"Don't be anxious. Your face is blue from the cold. Take a sip of the hot soup to warm yourself up." Yunxiu poured a bowl of broth for Xiao Chen. Ignoring the fat man's glare and Ling'er's rolling eyes, she put it to her mouth first and gently I blew it lightly before handing it to him.

"I'm not in a hurry. Li Wanjiang is urging us. Let's set off early the day after tomorrow!" Xiao Chen took a sip of soup but still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. Yunxiu finally came, but he didn't even make out. Is it reasonable for you two guys to torment me? I don’t know what it means that a long separation is better than a newlywed!

"Who did you think you were so good at? Why did Li Wanjiang send you there? Otherwise, why would Li Wanjiang send you?" Of course Fatty and the others had already gotten the news.

"What a miscalculation this time." Xiao Chen immediately became frustrated, "I wanted to general Old Li's army, but Old Li counterattacked an entire army and killed me directly."

"It seems that Li Wanjiang is really planning to reconcile with you this time." Fatty said.

"I don't know what his plan is, but under the current situation, if he doesn't reconcile with me, will he fall out with me? In short, his move is really clever, which is beyond my expectation." Xiao Chen said.

"I told you a long time ago, don't underestimate Li Wanjiang." Ouyang Yunxiu said softly.

"I really don't underestimate him. This time he comes with me and I have to give him a high look. But in the end, we still have the initiative." Xiao Chen looked at Yunxiu and said 'we', and he seemed to be too Very natural, "Yunxiu, did you also miss me when you came to Fengyang?"

There is no scruple in public displays of affection.

"Who missed you?" Ouyang Yunxiu stopped blushing when he heard Xiao Chen's words, and just smiled sweetly, "I'm here to beg you."

"Ah?" Xiao Chen was startled, "Why did the sinister curse that caused grandson's illness break out again?"

"Why are you making such a fuss? No!" Ouyang Yunxiu said angrily, "I'm asking you to help select someone to be a Jinshi, but you're not the chief examiner of academic affairs now, so there's no point in begging you."

"Who is it?" Xiao Chen was very surprised, "You disciples of the Ouyang family can also take part in the imperial examination? Why didn't I know?"

"He's not a disciple of our family, he's a man named Lu Wenqian. My second grandfather has a relationship with his grandfather. When he went to Beijing to take the exam this time, he passed by my house to visit the second grandfather. The second grandfather wanted to help him because of his old friend's face. Help him, knowing that you are a modern science and political science, so I sent me to ask you to take care of him." Ouyang Yunxiu said.

"I didn't expect that your Ouyang family is also humane and sophisticated." Xiao Chen always felt that people in the Ouyang family were unconventional. "Why is our second grandfather out of seclusion?"

"Second Grandpa has just come out of seclusion. We are not gods, so why are we not humane and sophisticated?" Ouyang Yunxiu said.

"Although I am no longer studying politics, I will definitely help you with this matter. I will look for Liu Qiheng, Jiang Tiansheng and the others later. I must get this Lu Wenqian. However, there is no problem in getting the Jinshi, but if you get the No. 2 pick, There may still be difficulty in finding the best flowers, the one that requires the imperial examination..." Xiao Chen said.

"As long as you are a Jinshi, you can also be a Jinshi." Ouyang Yunxiu said with a smile, "Why are you so capable? Don't brag to me. I will be angry if you miss my job!"

"I can't handle such a trivial matter, so I am not the Marquis of Yanyun for nothing?" Xiao Chen slapped his chest loudly, "You can rest assured, not only will I make him a Jinshi, but I will also give him a scholarship in the future. You can appoint him to be a member of the Hanlin Academy. If you want to go to any of the six departments or nine ministers, I will tell you. Who the hell dares not to give me face!"

This is really not bragging. With Xiao Chen's strength, doing this matter is as easy as lifting a finger.

"Then there's no need. Lu Wenqian is destined not to be an official." Ouyang Yunxiu said.

"If you can't be an official, then... if you can't be an official, why should he take the Jinshi exam?" Xiao Chen asked curiously.
