Not long after Shen Wenqiu and the three of them left the Jingzhao Mansion, Wu Tiexin, who had left in a huff, returned to the Jingzhao Mansion with the holy decree of the king, and originally wanted to kill Su Jinchen's sharp spirit, but he never wanted to pounce, and cursed Su Jinchen, the old bastard, in his heart, he would go against himself, and he worked hard to ask for this holy decree in front of the king, but it did not come in the slightest;

It's just that he was pitiful and Chu Jiuwen trembled and was scolded by Wu Tiexin, and then handed over the death row prisoner who was ready to replace Su Yunxin as an assassin and handed it over to Wu Tiexin, and he was also relieved, at least on the surface, no one was offended, and he also got a promise of promotion, and this scolding was worth it.

Su Jinchen arranged Su Yunxin in his own courtyard in Kyoto, thinking that he would not dare to bring it back to the princess's mansion, if this matter was stabbed to the king, it would be a crime of bullying the king, and the entire Su family would lose their heads.

During this period, Su Qingshu also tested his mother with this question, knowing the seriousness of the problem, he didn't dare to tell his mother anymore, but rotted things in his stomach;

Although Su Yunxin received Su Jinchen's favor, she still didn't intend to recognize him, and she was still cold to others; Su Jinchen didn't expect her to forgive herself for a while, as long as she stayed in another courtyard to recuperate from her injuries better than anything else.

Once, Shen Wenqiu came to see Su Yunxin, not knowing that he was still followed by Su Qingshu's tail; Su Qingshu entered the courtyard with a big grin, looked at Su Yunxin and asked: "You are my sister, you are quite beautiful, worthy of being my Su Qingshu's sister." I think my aunt is as beautiful as you!" Su Qingshu said this beautifully, and even praised Su Yunxin's mother.

Su Yunxin seemed to be very useful for his praise and recognized him as a younger brother; only Shen asked the second monk Qiu Zhang, who was puzzled, how could this Su Qingshu win Su Yunxin's favor with such a sentence, and he and Su Jinchen served her in a low voice, in exchange for her cold face, sure enough, a woman's heart is a needle, not something she can catch if she wants to;

Half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and Su Yunxin's assassination of Wu Shilang is over, today, it is the day of the imperial examination, there is a long queue in the examination room of the official office, looking at it, it is estimated that there are no less than 500 people, and only 36 jinshi are taken, this competition is really fierce; every candidate must be searched before entering the door, and no one can bring Xiao Fried into the examination room, so now they have to pass the first level of body search; the body search tests the candidate's quality, and he does not even have integrity, how can the king entrust him with important responsibilities in the future?

Today's examiner Liu Shilang kept staring at Shen Wenqiu not far away, and thought: "It turns out that this blind guy has offended the eldest princess, I'm sorry, compared to your boat that hasn't gotten up yet, I think it's safer for the eldest princess's big boat." ”

Shen Wenqiu didn't know that he had already been targeted, and now he was still talking to Gongsun Ming about going to Xianlaiju for a good meal and sleeping after the exam, and then talk about the rest; as the candidates entered the examination room one by one, it was finally Shen Wenqiu's turn to enter, Liu Shilang looked at Shen Wenqiu very unkindly and asked, "What's your name, where did you come from, where is the paperwork?"

Shen Wenqiu didn't know why he was so impulsive, so he took out the paperwork and gave it to him, but he didn't answer it, so he said to the person next to him: "Search your body, search carefully." Then he also followed his hand and touched Shen Wenqiu's body, and he didn't know where he got a blank piece of paper and asked, "What is this? Are you going to cheat?

Shen Wenqiu was also puzzled about how he had this thing on his body! What he didn't expect was that in the next second, Liu Shilang deliberately took his inkstone and fell to the ground and cracked: "Oh, I'm sorry, my hand slipped." Do you have a spare inkstone?"

Shen Wenqiu was very angry in his heart at this time, and he didn't dare to have a seizure, if he dared to have a seizure, it was estimated that he wouldn't even be able to enter the door; ”

Liu Shilang looked very considerate and said: "You go back and get it now, it's definitely too late, use my piece first!"

Shen Wenqiu took the inkstone and saw that it was actually the most inferior inkstone, and the anger in his heart was so big that it was about to explode, but he had to endure and said: "Lord Xie, after the student is in high school, he must thank the adults for their emergency relief." ”

Shen Wenqiu's words were full of threats, but this Liu Shilang was not afraid of him at all, and said in his heart: "You still want to go to high school, do you dream?"

Shen Wenqiu flicked his sleeves and entered the official office, but Gongsun Ming was not embarrassed by Liu Shilang, he followed closely behind Shen Wenqiu, followed in two steps, and asked, "Wenqiu, why did you offend the examiner?"

Shen Wenqiu also felt inexplicable, saying that he had no grievances with him; Gongsun Ming gave Shen Wenqiu his spare inkstone, and said with relief: "Forget it, don't take it to heart, it will affect the exam." ”

Shen Wenqiu nodded, and went to look for the small shed where he was arranged to take the exam, each candidate has an independent shed, like an upside-down box without a lid, just enough to accommodate two people, one is a space for candidates to sit, and the other is for the examiner to inspect at any time.

What Shen Wenqiu didn't expect was that even the examination shed was made of hands and feet, a three-legged stool, and a swaying bookcase; Shen Wenqiu thought to himself: "Didn't you read the yellow calendar when you went out?" Is the fortune-telling of the fortune about to begin to be fulfilled?"

Shen Wenqiu smiled helplessly, walked to his place and sat down; the matter has come to this point, there is no trouble, you will be charged with disturbing the examination room, and you will not even be qualified for the examination; this Liu Shilang's care is really thoughtful! It is estimated that the eldest princess can love him to death, and she has tried her best to win over the talent, because his own words were targeted by him like this.

Shen Wenqiu sat on the chair and swayed, wanting to sit more steadily, thinking of what way to do it? He saw the incense burner on the table not far in front of him, picked up the stool he was sitting on, unloaded its hind legs, and made a triangular stool, as long as he didn't swing his body, he could do it steadily, without half-squatting to consume physical strength, and he didn't need to be distracted;

As for the table, it doesn't matter if it sways when it touches it, and if you write it with hanging penmanship, the bookcase won't sway; Shen Wenqiu thought to himself: "Count death, count death, you can't imagine that Young Master Ben is so smart even if you die!"

Shen Wenqiu's heart at this time was that my life was up to me, not to the sky, and the five elements of heaven and earth, yin and yang gossip could not be difficult for me.

On the third pole of the day, the examiner promulgated the examination questions, requiring candidates to complete the examination at the time of three incense sticks, and the examination title was "On the necessity of the existence of Qinglou culture"; this exam question is indeed strange, it seems that the Qinglou of the Southern Ming Kingdom has been criticized by the literati, but the most people who go to it are also literati, I really don't know how to say what they are good?

At first, the purpose of the king's support for industry was to increase fiscal revenue and support the construction of public facilities; he had a fight with the literary sages and developed into what it is today; now these literati are doing things again, thinking that the wine pond meat forest will only make people sink and degenerate, but they are the ones who go the most.

Of course, these candidates don't know these two people, and they are not in the mood to deal with these two people, and they are all working hard to write books, hoping to get a good result in the exam, and glorify their ancestors; of course, there are also a few people who don't learn and don't know how to bite the pen, and they don't do anything, and they don't do it at all, and they may not know how to read a few big characters, and they don't know how to sit here。

When the young man walked up to Gongsun Ming, he saw that he answered seriously, and wrote a small half of the article with great enthusiasm, and thought that he was a talent, so he wrote "temporarily listed as a first-class" next to the name of his article When he reacted and wanted to perform etiquette, the young man asked him to keep quiet, guard against arrogance and rashness, and continue to finish this article; Gongsun Ming didn't expect that he actually met Jun Shang in the examination room, and his heart was excited; this stimulus, Wen Si became more clear and agile.

After Shen Wenqiu heard the exam questions, he had a framework in his heart, and he finished writing the article in less than a stick of incense, and waited for the last half of the stick of incense to be handed in; the young man was also shocked when he saw Shen Wenqiu's eyes closed, and his heart was also uncertain, this was really the Shen Wenqiu he had always wanted to see, and it wouldn't be in vain! Why don't you put pen to paper, you won't rely on connections and bribes to get in like those people before you! The mood that originally had high hopes for him also sank to the bottom, and when he walked over with three steps and two steps, he was about to wake up Shen Wenqiu, but he saw an article on his desk with a neat font and a sprinkling of genre;

He picked it up and looked at it carefully, and kept praising it in his heart: "Wonderful, really wonderful." ”

Shen Wenqiu saw that someone was holding his article, and his face was full of joy, thinking that someone was blatantly plagiarizing his article, so he just wanted to get up and scolded: "Bold, you actually blatantly flouted the exam rules and openly plagiarized." ”

When Shen Wenqiu got up and saw these words, he suddenly understood the identity of this young man and was about to salute, but he was stopped by the old man; and the first thing that the young man noticed was that Shen Wenqiu got up and fell on the stool with only three legs, one of which fell to the ground, instead of Shen Wenqiu's expression, and when he saw the rocking table, he felt inexplicably angry; he scolded in his heart: "Su Jinchen's people do things like this, and when the imperial examination is over, they must settle accounts with him." At the same time, I admired this Shen Wenqiu's ingenuity and endurance in my heart, and he would definitely be a person who could achieve great things in the future.

The young man smiled at him and left, Shen Wenqiu's mood suddenly improved most of the time, and he had already forgotten all about what Liu Shilang had done to him; ”

Shen asked Qiu Meizi to hand in the test paper, however, not long after he left, Liu Shilang picked up his test paper and tore it casually, and the examiner next to him looked at him in a daze; Liu Shilang's official was several levels older than him, and he didn't look at him squarely, and asked, "What did you see?"

The examiner stammered nervously: "Next..." Xiaguan, I didn't see anything. ”

Liu Shilang was very satisfied with his performance and patted him on the shoulder, meaning: "Not bad, promising." ”
