It has to be said that people like Xiao He are naturally somewhat sensitive to their own kind.

Even when I saw Chen Ping at his age, I felt a little envious in my heart. It was great to live in such a beautiful era.

"I don't know how to call brother?"

The term "xiongtai" or "xiongxiong" here has nothing to do with age, it is just the honorific title given by strangers.

"Hello, Brother Xiao, I'm Chen Ping, nice to meet you."

Yes, Chen Ping felt that anyone who could reach this point without being deliberately trained by His Highness was worthy of association.

Maybe with good communication, he can be brought to His Highness's side, and he may be able to help His Highness in his future journey.

"Xiao is also very happy to meet Brother Chen."

Looking at the elegant and intellectual beauty sitting not far from Chen Ping, Xiao He also greeted politely: "This... um, how do you call me sir?"

Because he had never seen a woman on an equal footing with him before, Xiao He hesitated a little bit before successfully completing the title.

Lu Zhi did not laugh at him, but responded in a clear voice: "I have met Mr. Xiao, my name is Lu Zhi, you can also call me Mr. Lu."

Chen Ping smiled and answered: "Brother Xiao, don't underestimate Mr. Lu, she is no weaker than our men."

Seeing that this person could be of great use, he didn't mind giving him a few pointers so as not to offend others without even realizing it.

Xiao He: "It seems that the two of you have known each other for a long time."

His tone was firm, which showed that he was quite confident in his observations.

"nature."

Neither Chen Ping nor Lu Zhi concealed anything. After all, the fact that they had known each other for a long time could no longer be concealed.

There is no need to blame such a talented person for this.

"Yeah, so you two are from the same place?"

Huang Dan heard the three people chatting lively and came over in a familiar manner, "Huang Dan, I have met a few gentlemen."

Because there was a woman among them, Huang Dan did not call them brothers directly, but called them sir.

Lu Zhi smiled: "For now, yes." Chen Ping also smiled: "They are indeed from the same place."

They are all from Huazhang Palace. As for their respective hometowns, where are they? Can not remember.

Of course, in this era where clan concepts are deeply ingrained, that is impossible.

"Oh, what's the relationship between you two?"

Ji Yue was more interested in this, "Ah, I'm sorry, let me introduce myself first, Ji Yue."

It used to be the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, but now it is just a surname.

Since the vassal states were no longer under the jurisdiction of Emperor Zhou, their surname Ji was in an extremely embarrassing situation.

This time he was able to convince the elders of his clan to come to Xianyang alone to take the entrance examination for the first official school in Da Qin, thanks to the weekly articles he had read for more than half a year.

I was able to pass the last promotion exam thanks to my thorough reading of many articles and novelties in Da Qin Weekly.

Hearing Chen Ping and Lu Zhi's answers at this moment, he suddenly became interested.

"Brother Ji, you are polite."

Lu Zhi and Chen Ping quickly responded politely, then looked at each other and smiled: "We are colleagues."

"Colleagues?"

Not only Ji Yue was incredibly moved by their answers, but Huang Dan and Xiao He were also a little stunned.

Could it be that they are already Da Qin officials?

"What...what do you mean by this?"

Huang Dan's eyes widened in astonishment, and he asked half-jokingly, "You two are already court officials, and why are you here to compete with us for positions?"

"Brother Huang, what you said is wrong. Mr. Lu and I are not qualified to be court officials."

Although His Highness had requested an official from His Majesty on their behalf a few days ago, after His Majesty came to talk to them, both of them wisely chose to decline.
