Hold the thick thighs tightly [My father is a traitor]

Chapter 542: The competitive exam, ⊙△⊙

The little sisters were extremely surprised by Leng Mengwan's rash promise of an official position. They did not have the foresight of Xiao Yining, and at this moment they all looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and puzzlement.

"Sister Yu Ke, do you agree?" Liu Zhenying asked with a frown, puzzled.

Yu Ke shook her head firmly: "I'm not stupid! I have been with my sisters for more than a year, so I naturally know that this matter is very serious."

Shi Wanwan nodded in appreciation: "Sister Yu Ke, you are right not to agree. If you want your family to change its status, you can either go through the path of imperial merchants or spend money to make friends with the powerful. This Miss Leng has no real power and is not valued by King Yu. If she can really find an official position for your father, I am afraid there is something unknown behind the scenes, which will bring endless troubles."

Royal merchant?

Friendship with powerful people?

Yu Ke was secretly happy, as if her family had already been involved in all these.

She quietly recalled her father's ecstasy when he returned from the Lin family one day, and he even pulled her into the room to share his joy: "Dad will make money for the emperor in the future, and that will be a big business that no one can match!"

Thinking of this, she stole another glance at Xiao Yining.

Seeing her actions, others couldn't help but laugh and teased, "Sister Yu Ke has a good idea. Princess Le'an is really a big shot. It seems that Sister Yining will have to protect Sister Yu Ke, this little rich woman."

These words caused laughter in Class B again.

Little Yining blinked in confusion. The Yu family had long been tied to hers. Didn't the little sister see that? This relationship didn't need to be made public. Everyone should know it!

Even though he was thinking this, the little kid patted Yu Ke's shoulder in a cooperative manner and said loudly, "Sister Yu Ke, I will protect you from now on."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Zhenying said, "You two helped each other in the past, but things are different now. If anyone wants to bully Sister Yu Ke in the girls' school, they should carefully consider the importance of Princess Le'an behind her."

When Xiao Yining heard this, she felt something strange in her heart. She suddenly recalled what Pei Dafu said before he left, and she had a vague understanding.

She glanced at the children and sisters present. At this moment, their topic had returned to the original topic, asking Yu Ke what official position the heroine had agreed to for him.

However, Yu Ke still shook his head: "I didn't agree to her, so she didn't tell me in detail, but she did mention to me that my father could choose any seventh-rank official position."

As soon as these words came out, all the children gasped in shock and exclaimed in unison: "This person is so arrogant!"

It really is a business of buying and selling official positions.

Xiao Yining replied in her heart, but pretended to remind her casually: "Miss Leng's words sounded like those of the peddler. My mother can choose the hairpin."

As she spoke, she shook her little head, causing the cute little beads on her head to tremble.

Everyone: ...How can these two sentences be confused? You are still young and don’t know the seriousness of these words.

However, the little kid's "unintentional words" did give them new ideas, so they each fell into deep thought and began to analyze the issue on their own.

"Having said that, the incident of Prince Yuan raising an army to rebel caused the Emperor to punish many officials, and many official positions were indeed vacant." Shi Wanwan was the first to break the silence, her tone revealing a hint of calmness.

"Indeed, the probation period for countless officials will expire at the end of the year, and these vacancies will naturally be filled. In this way, the seventh-rank official positions may usher in a wave of new people replacing them." Yan Ke continued, with a hint of thought in his tone.

"My father also said that the Jinshi who pass the exam next year will be directly granted official positions without having to wait for vacancies. Some people are already secretly trying to get them." Liu Zhenying, who is well-informed, also revealed a piece of news.

She squinted her eyes slightly, glanced outside the door, and then continued in a mysterious tone: "Last time when my father was on leave, someone was so tactless as to come to visit him. You know my father, he is upright and impartial, how could he accept gifts? Without saying a word, she kicked the man out."

Everyone: ..., Great Censor Liu is indeed capable of doing such an offensive thing.

However, this statement also revealed a message - these candidates who are waiting for the exam all try their best to cling to the powerful and seek a better future. Coupled with Leng Mengwan's words just now, everyone has already made a shocking guess in their minds.

"It seems that someone is defying the law and secretly buying and selling official positions." Shangguan Ruyi sighed and said, "However, this is just a guess. I have to go back and ask my father to confirm it."

Xiao Yining's eyes lingered on Shangguan Ruyi for a moment. She still remembered that Shangguan Ruyi's father was the murderer who brought flowers and was suspected of killing Lu Jiayi's mother. He was not a good person.

Shangguan Ruyi noticed the little kid's gaze and smiled gently: "Sister Yining, what are you thinking about? Is it that what we said is a little confusing to you?"

Xiao Yining: (?﹏?), Sister Shangguan is actually a very good sister, she always takes care of her inadvertently!

Jin Xingman, holding a snack in her mouth, mumbled and interrupted, "Not only did Sister Yining not understand, we didn't think so much either. No wonder my father asked me to learn more from you, so as not to be bewitched and used as a tool by others."

As she spoke, she glanced at the classmates who did not participate in the discussion.

The remaining few people couldn't help but roll their eyes secretly and didn't want to pay attention to her: You are the only stupid one, all you know how to do is eat all day long.

Xiao Yining looked at the man's burn marks which had not yet healed completely and was unwilling to continue the conversation.

Jin Xingman successfully ended the conversation and the room fell into silence.

Finally, Yu Ke, who deals with money all day, thought of another important point and broke the silence: "If it is a business, I wonder how much money can be made. My father told me that there are more than 1,800 candidates going to the capital this time, while only dozens of Jinshi were selected in previous years. I am afraid that countless people's money will be wasted."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yining said in disbelief: "Only a few dozen people?"

She clearly remembered that in many novels she had read, the number of Jinshi was in the hundreds. Although it was difficult, there was no need to be so strict, right?

If Enke is included, the competition would be so fierce that it is unimaginable.

However, the kid was not only shocked by this. Then, Shi Wanwan, the daughter of the historian who was deeply influenced by her family, continued, "Sister Yining, in fact, admitting dozens of people is already a lot. I heard from my father that the least number of people admitted was only five Jinshi. This matter depends on the emperor's wishes."

Xiao Yining: Σヽ(?Д ?； )?, this is just a bullshit test, it can be said that everyone is just a runner-up.

The little kid suddenly felt that he had too high expectations of the two elders in the family. He was afraid that he had no hope of becoming the top scholar as he was so lazy in his studies every day.

She had a frustrated expression, just like an old mother who wanted her son to be successful, but finally found out that the child was not cut out for it.

Don't ask her why she is so obsessed with the old man passing the imperial examination. It's just that the novel describes them so brilliantly, and if he doesn't pass the imperial examination, the author's long and detailed writing would be undone.

She, Lin Yining, is such a vain little woman.

Seeing her depressed face, Liu Zhenying raised her lips slightly and said with a hint of teasing, "Sister Yining, are you still worried that your father and uncle won't pass the exam? As long as you tell us, our father will not only look at our friendship as classmates, but also look at your status as a princess and give them some advice."

"Yes, yes, given our friendship, Sister Yining can just ask the two elders to come visit. My father is a lecturer!" Yan Ke said with pride.

Everyone else agreed and told the little kid not to worry.

Xiao Yining felt warm at heart when she heard everyone's comforting words. Although the girls in Class B had their own thoughts, they were nice to her most of the time.

The little girl also returned the favor by spreading the news that Pei Dafu intended her to spread: "But my father and uncle are not juren yet, they are still scholars, and they have to participate in the special examination before they can become juren."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Yining's surroundings instantly fell into deathly silence.

After a while, the little sister children spoke in unison in disbelief: "Enke?"
