Chapter 116: Gossip
Was it cut off?
Exploring the area around the Queen's Mausoleum, we found the collapse here, which was the only unusual place except for the round mound.
The black guards looked around, the chains that were originally hidden in the ground were turned out, scattered like spider webs, and all the survivors of Huangsha Road were bound to iron chains, during which they were born, old, sick and died, the old and the new were replaced, and there were fewer and fewer of the living, and most of the chains were silent forever, and this time they were turned out and rediscovered.
The chains had slid quickly and violently, and the entrance to this mechanism had not been broken by them?
"There are a lot of chain strikes. Duan Shan Dao, looking at the wooden board in his hand, stretched out his hand and pointed at the opening on it, "But here is not a trace of chain impact..... his hand rubbed the edge, "This is a sharp iron weapon knocked open..."
The black-armored guard next to him said, "What does Lord Duan mean, someone has been here before?"
There was a loud bang, and several black-armored guards smashed through the collapsed ground where the chains were wrapped around the sand, dirt, and stones in unison.
"My lord, look here, you can go in. They shouted.
Duan Shan stepped forward with the wooden board in his hand, looked down from the smashed opening, and the inside was as dark as a bottomless deep well, he stretched out his hand, and the black armor guard beside him handed over a fire twist, Duan Shan took it and threw it in.
The firelight was instantly illuminated, and the hanging chains and the huge wooden frame within them could be seen colliding and scattered.
"Back then, the Queen's Mausoleum was designed by the craftsmen of the Imperial Mausoleum, supervised by the five ministers, and others were not allowed to approach, so the original organ was here. Duan Shan Road, the fire twist fell to the ground, shining on the bottom piece, and there was nowhere to put down in the chaos..... "Find a rope, I want to go down." ”
The black armor guard said: "It's too dangerous. ”
Duan Shan looked at the wooden board in his hand: "If others can go down, we can also go down." ”
......
......
In the restaurant near the official office, as the door of the box opened, the people inside stood up and saluted Mr. Qingxia who walked in.
"I've seen you, sir. ”
Mr. Qingxia nodded, and the scribe behind him smiled.
"As soon as the exam is over, what are your intentions to meet Mr. Qingxia?" he laughed.
Zhang Shuangtong said: "Of course, I took advantage of the results to meet my husband, and waited for the results to come out, so as not to be shameless." ”
Everyone in the room laughed, and Mr. Qingxia also smiled, motioning for everyone to sit down.
"Everyone did well in the exam, which was beyond my expectations. He said, his gaze falling on Xue Qing, "Especially Xue Qing." ”
Xue Qing hurriedly gave a salute: "It's the credit of Mr. for teaching." ”
If other students said this, Mr. Qingxia would be able to accept it calmly, Xue Qing..... He said: "Don't be too humble, it's really unexpected to me, I thought it would be good to be selected, but I didn't expect it to be the top of the list." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the scribe on the side took out a scroll from his sleeve.
Mr. Qingxia took it and said, "I have already got everyone's results..."
As soon as these words came out, the candidates present couldn't help but move slightly, the young ones whispered, and the older ones sat up straight.
Mr. Qingxia didn't wait for everyone to ask again, directly opened and read out everyone's scores, the scores are naturally high and low, the high is happy, the low is inevitably nervous, the results of twenty people are quickly finished, Mr. Qingxia closed the book, and simply said: "The lowest..." He looked at an old man present.
The old man's face turned red and said, "I'm ashamed..."
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Qingxia said: "... It was ranked 200th. ”
The old man was stunned,
"Ha, Uncle Cui!" Zhang Shuangtong leaned over and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, "Congratulations, congratulations, it's so dangerous." ”
Pang An said excitedly: "That means that our Chang'an Mansion has passed?"
Mr. Qingxia looked at him and nodded.
There was silence in the room for a moment, and then there was an uproar.
"Oh my God, all 20 of us are over!"
"Isn't that the same as the people of Xiliang?"
"Speaking of which, the biggest score is Like.... We're all out of the house.."
"Yes, yes, if it weren't for this, my score wouldn't be that high.... I was going to give up on this subject..."
Although I am very happy to pass the test, but all the staff can pass the test is a joy and joy, everyone is happy to come and go back happily, you can imagine what kind of scene it will be to return to Chang'an Mansion, laughter, even Lin Xiucai, who has always held his own identity and is indifferent to fame and fortune, laughed from ear to ear, mixed with the cry of the old man.... He was rejoicing and weeping.
"I'm lifted, I'm lifted....."
The clerk smiled: "I can't say this for the time being, I have to wait for the test before everything comes true." "The subject of the exam is a gentleman's test, which gives everyone the opportunity, so it is a risk that only after the examination results will be counted as a number.
Zhang Shuangtong shouted: "My lord, don't say this when you are so happy..... I'm greedy for joy for a while, and as for tomorrow's things, I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
The scribe laughed, and the hall that had a slightly solemn atmosphere became lively again.
The scribe said: "Of course you can be greedy today, the exam will be held at the beginning of next year, everyone will return to Chang'an Mansion in August, and there is not much time before the exam, I hope you will start preparing for the exam from tomorrow, cherish the results of the gentleman's exam, and strive for the exam to all of you again to enter the Shi and the first!"
"Misaburo, Misamura, stand up and say. Zhang Shuangtong shouted.
Xue Qing stood up, shook his sleeve and said, "This time I will be the Toad Palace." ”
There was a thunderous cheer in the hall, and Mr. Qingxia couldn't help but laugh, looking at the young man standing with his hands in his hands, and sighed slightly, compared to what she had to do, it might be easier to go to the Toad Palace to win the laurels.
"Xue Qing, come with me. He stood up and said.
Xue Qing responded, and others had no objections, Xue Qing was the top of the list, and it was natural for Mr. Qingxia to have some special explanations, watching the two open the door and go out, the room became more wanton and happy.
Close the door and walk in the corridor can faintly hear the laughter coming from inside, at this time the night falls in the teahouse lights up, everywhere is a hustle and bustle, after the exam, many candidates will come to a sound of greed.
Mr. Qingxia walked slowly, and Xue Qing followed after making a mistake.
"I was surprised to be at the top of the list. Mr. Qingxia said.
Xue Qing said: "I didn't think about it so much, when things come to an end, I always have to do the best, do my best, do my best, study too, take exams, everything should be like this." ”
Mr. Qingxia looked at her sideways, under the light of the red lantern, the young man's complexion appeared whiter, his eyes fell on her hands, the sleeves of his clothes hung down to reveal his fingertips, and the white cloth was entangled...... There seemed to be a thousand words, and in the end he only said, "Does it hurt?"
Xue Qing smiled and said, "A little." ”
Mr. Qingxia looked at her and said, "The heavens will descend on the Si people, and they will accept it." ”
Xue Qing nodded in response, smiled again, smiled under the lamp, and bent his eyebrows and eyes crooked, revealing sharp and small teeth, a little smart.... Still a child, a girl, Mr. Qingxia was silent for a moment, and said, "Is there any medicine?"
Xue Qing nodded again: "Yes, don't worry, sir." "Thank you, sir." ”
Mr. Qingxia nodded and said, "Let's go in." ”
At this time, they stopped in front of the door of a room at the turn, Xue Qing pushed the door in response, and Mr. Qingxia didn't seem to stop and continued to walk slowly along the corridor, and the swaying figure of the lantern loomed.
......
......
Pulling the door shut, Xue Qing looked at Du and Miaomiao, who stood up in front of him, and nodded slightly.
"Sit down. She said, stepping over and sitting on the floor.
