Originally, he was strongly opposed to this, but now he has a bit of a lively mentality. If Guo Wenying can really win the Jinshi, there will be fun to see below.

With this mentality, he lived a few days of peace. In the past few days, the streets have been calm and quiet, and there is no wind and waves in the court, and the emperor announced that the queen mother is sick and needs to close the palace to recuperate, and stop all activities, but he has never sent anyone to look around.

This queen is sick, and Princess Yuwan is also sick, which is too much of a coincidence. There are also those who have a keen sense of smell and are smart enough to detect something, but the emperor doesn't say anything, and they don't need to worry about it as courtiers, and they are very calm for a while.

Guo Wenying has always been a person who can't stay, and she is tired of reading books for a few days, so she pulls Zhang Mingchang to accompany her to the street. By the way, I would like to exchange knowledge with other people.

Zhang Mingchang really didn't want to take her out, she didn't care, and the jade bowl princess was even more noisy, and she wanted to go to the temple fair to buy candy people and mud dolls.

In the house these days, no one knows that she is a princess, there is a little maid named Xiang'er in the house, who is only thirteen or fourteen years old, which is the age of fun, telling her many interesting things every day, and taking some new things to please her.

Princess Yuwan has never been out of the palace since she was a child, and she feels fresh about everything, and she heard Xiang'er say that the sugar people at the temple fair are delicious, and there are a lot of fun things, so she is noisy to go.

Children are not sensible and can easily get into trouble, how could Guo Wenying ask her to go out at this time, but no matter what she said, Princess Yuwan didn't listen.

Zhang Mingchang said with a smile: "Princess, if you want to eat candy and play with clay dolls, ask someone to buy it back." What's so fun out there, why don't I do magic tricks for you?"

Feng Yu'er tilted her head to look at him, "What kind of magic will you become?"

Zhang Mingchang smiled, asked people to take a lantern over, held a lantern in his left hand, held a flint in his right hand, and "rubbed" the fire a few times, but he didn't see any near the lantern, the lantern actually lit.

Feng Yu'er immediately burst into tears and laughed, and asked him to teach her how to do it.

Zhang Mingchang demonstrated to her twice, asked her to study at home, and then went back to show others in the evening.

There was something to do, Feng Yu'er was so engrossed in the lantern that she forgot about going out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guo Wenying and Zhang Mingchang went out of the door.

When she got outside, Guo Wenying said, "I didn't expect you to be quite good at coaxing children?"

Zhang Mingchang smiled: "It's just a little trick, when I was young, my father often used this to coax me, but my father died within a few years." Leave me with my mother. Later, my mother cried and was blind, and she didn't even go out of the door. ”

Guo Wenying said: "Then why don't you marry a wife?"

Zhang Mingchang pretended to sigh, "Who can look up to me for my virtue." In fact, he has his own pain in his heart, once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan is not a cloud, once a momentary temptation left infinite regrets, and he didn't take women so seriously. In a few years, maybe when he gets older, he will find a random woman to inherit the lineage, and he doesn't care about the rest of the love and the like.

It was still early at this time, so they got into the carriage and went straight to the most lively Zhuzi Street. The two of them turned a street and arrived, and there were many small stalls for breakfast on the side of the street.

Guo Wenying hadn't eaten snacks on the street for a long time, and she felt greedy for a while, so she pulled Zhang Mingchang to go down for breakfast.

There aren't many people eating today, and it's about to end after the meal.

They picked up a place and sat down, and Guo Wenying shouted, "Boss, come two bowls of tofu brain." ”

Zhang Mingchang also asked for two bowls of soy milk and two burnt rings, and he was very happy to eat. People also love to wander around the streets and alleys on weekdays, and like to eat these snacks, but the officials are getting bigger and bigger, and they rarely eat on the street anymore, which is a lot less interesting.

Guo Wenying drank a bowl of tofu brain and let out a long breath, "I have dreamed of this mouthful, there are also tofu brains in the palace, but it is not always the taste of eating on the street." ”

Zhang Mingchang smiled, "The atmosphere is different." ”

Having a meal in the palace, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching, how can I be so comfortable on the street.

They were eating, and suddenly saw two people hurriedly walking in front of the stall, Guo Wenying glanced at it, and couldn't help but say "Huh", these two people looked familiar, but they couldn't remember where they had seen each other for a while.

Seeing her pat her on the head, Zhang Mingchang asked, "What's wrong?"

Guo Wenying said: "Do you think those two people know each other?"

Zhang Mingchang glanced at it, and couldn't help but say "Huh", these two people are his classmates in the same subject, and they have been to the examination room together, one is called Gao Chun, and the other is called Li Yu, why are these two people in such a hurry?

He opened his mouth and wanted to scream, but when he thought of Guo Wenying on the side, he hurriedly stopped his voice, and listened to Gao Chun's rapid voice: "Hurry up, go quickly, it's too late to be late." ”

Li Yu was a little uncomfortable being dragged by him, and sighed: "Yuxuan Tower is close to the left, do you need to die in a hurry?"

Gao Chun said with a smile: "If you go late, you won't be able to grab a good seat, and the wine brewing in Yuxuan Building is the best." ”

Li Yu almost didn't laugh out loud, others went to Yuxuan Tower to participate in a literati gathering, but he wanted to eat wine.

The two walked as fast as they could, and disappeared in a moment.

Hearing Zhang Mingchang say that these two people may be the sons of the scientific expedition, Guo Wenying suddenly felt grass in her heart, and she was not in the mood to eat Jiaoquan, so she only asked Zhang Mingchang, "Where is Yuxuan Tower?"

"It's not far, about half a mile from here. ”

"Let's go and see when we're done. ”

Yuxuanlou into Beijing is the favorite restaurant inn, which is not only cheap accommodation, good wine and good food, but also one of the most popular, that is, a three-foot-high platform was built on the first floor of Yuxuanlou, which was specially used for these literati to compete and fight. She has long admired the name of Yuxuan Building, but she has never had the opportunity to see it for herself.

Every year, after the new imperial examination enters Beijing, a unique literary event will be held in Yuxuan Building, and the competition is divided into three games, the first is a comparison, the second is a poem, and the third is an article. The judges are all from all over the world, and the leaders elected by the people are naturally a little more fair.

Many people regard this as a test before the imperial examination room, and if they can win the first place in the Yuxuanlou competition, it is reasonable for them to be the champion of high school.

The boss of this Yuxuan Building is really a businessman, in each of the three rounds of the competition won the first place, he asked to write a poem on the wall, if he can really be the top student in high school one day, in the top three, he will rub the poem down, hang it in the exhibition hall on the second floor. The chances of these leaders being in the top three in high school are very high, only a few will be famous in Sun Mountain, and in the long run, the exhibition hall on the second floor is full of rubbing poems, and many people who go to Beijing are also proud to be able to inscribe poems on the wall of Yuxuan Tower.
