The thirty-fifth round is to take the test

The forbidden army escorting the box here had already left the palace gate, and Yan Ruojiu also hurried to Fei Ziran's house, and happened to meet Fei Ziran, who had just packed up and was about to go out. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

As soon as Fei Ziran saw Yan Ruojiu, he laughed and said, "Little Ah Wei, are you willing to show up?" ”

Listening to the slightly sour little complaint in Fei Ziran's words, Yan Ruojiu felt a little happy in her heart, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled, but the little appearance of happiness made Fei Ziran can't help but hook the corners of her mouth seriously.

"Why are you here?" Yan Ruojiu was stupid and didn't answer Fei Ziran's question at all, so Fei Ziran had to ask again.

"Come and send Brother Ziran to take the exam." Yan Ruojiu's round purring eyes flashed, and she was very excited.

"How did you get here? It's still early, and the sky isn't fully bright, is my uncle with you? Fei Ziran probed behind Yan Ruojiu, but except for the lonely alley, he didn't see the rest.

After making sure that there was no one else behind Yan Ruojiu, Fei Ziran looked at Yan Ruojiu with a scrutinizing look and said, "You won't run out secretly, right?" ”

"Uh...... How could it be ......" Yan Ruojiu's words were a little flustered.

"How not? I'm afraid that my uncle hasn't left the house yet, and since my uncle and aunt are here, how can I let you, a child, come out alone in the dark? Ani, you're telling the truth. Fei Ziran's first reaction was to worry.

"Brother Ziran...... No...... How so...... Both my father and mother knew that today was the day of the exam, so ...... I was allowed to do so, Brother Ziran, don't worry, I promised you that I would definitely not cause trouble, so how could I sneak out of the house? Yan Ruojiu muttered and explained, but secretly muttered in her heart: Anyway, I went back before my mother found out, and I was not discovered, which means that there is no such thing as secretly leaving the house.

"Are you sure!" Fei Ziran was skeptical.

"Brother Ziran, aren't you in a hurry, won't it delay your time if you keep asking like this?" Yan Ruojiu was really afraid that if she was interrogated for a while, she would not be determined to say that she had sneaked out of the house over the wall, so she tried very hard to change the topic.

And Fei Ziran was actually very sure that Yan Ruojiu had sneaked out of the house, but now that he was like this, he really didn't have the intention of blaming, after all, he was very happy to see Yan Ruojiu before the exam, so he sighed helplessly and shook his head, and changed the topic with Yan Ruojiu's expectation: "Where have you been these days?" ”

Yan Ruojiu was very depressed when she heard this: "Don't mention it, I've been staying in the house for half a month, and I'm about to get sick, my mother said that I won't disturb Brother Ziran's study, so I've endured it until today, thinking that it is the day of the test, so I have to come to see you off." ”

"Sending off? Ay...... You girl, but embarrassed you, this examination room is only half an hour away from me, a quarter of an hour away by carriage, you are making a fuss that I want to travel far away, what kind of line, the dark sky, you dare to run out alone, why are you not afraid of us worrying? Fei Ziran said helplessly.

"What are you worried about, my fists and feet still can't bully me, today is Brother Ziran's big day, as a relative, I naturally want to come, don't you say, Uncle Zhang?" Yan Ruojiu pursed her mouth and glanced at Uncle Zhang behind Fei Ziran.

Uncle Zhang on the side smiled when he saw this: "Yes, yes, it's still Miss Yan who is the best for Zi Ran Gongzi, I know that I will try it today, and I came to see you, Childe, it's almost the hour, you and Miss Yan are in the car." ”

"Yes, yes, get in the car, get in the car, Brother Ziran, get in the car quickly, don't miss the hour." Yan Ruojiu shouted while lifting her skirt and jumping into the carriage first, then turned back to Fei Ziran and smiled stupidly: "Brother Ziran, hurry up." ”

Although Fei Ziran's face was a little helpless, his heart was still warm, but he hooked the corners of his mouth, and then got into the carriage with a smile.

Uncle Zhang put away the footstool, sat on the head of the carriage and drove up the carriage, squeak, cluck, cluck, and the carriage drove out of the alley melodiously.

A quarter of an hour later, when Fei Ziran and Yan Ruojiu arrived around the examination room in a carriage, it was already a little crowded, Yan Ruojiu went out to look around and asked, "Brother Ziran, when will the exam start today?" ”

"Admission on time at three o'clock, and the exam starts on time."

"Uncle Zhang, what time will it be?" Yan Ruojiu asked again.

"It's probably just time to arrive." Uncle Zhang replied.

"It's still more than half an hour before you enter the venue, why are there so many people." Yan Ruojiu was a little shocked by the crowded appearance in front of her.

"I heard that there are more than 6,000 candidates going to the exam this year, which is not too many, and many children of the family will come when they are about to enter the venue." Uncle Zhang said with a smile.

"Isn't it even more lively than a temple fair?" Yan Ruojiu exclaimed.

"That's natural, this year is the ten-year Son of Heaven Enke, which is of great significance, if it can be on the list, it means that it will become the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, the future is naturally limitless, many children of noble families have high hopes, I heard that the emperor also specially let the princes and princes in the palace school even include a few princes of the right age to refer to it." Uncle Zhang is well-informed.

"Huh? The prince and the prince in the palace school, isn't that the emperor's own strength, isn't it very unfair to other students? "Yan Ruojiu really doesn't have a good impression of the palace.

"Not really, I heard that the papers for this year's examination were drawn up by the emperor himself, without going through any minister of civil affairs and politics, and only by the emperor alone, saying that it was for the sake of fairness." Uncle Zhang told the news he heard one by one.

"Cut...... It is said that those people are people in the palace, and they will naturally be favored and preferential, and the emperor himself came up with the question, wouldn't it be even more unfair. Yan Ruojiu said disdainfully.

"Hehe, Ah Wei, this is often unfair is not the highest imperial power, you think he has everything, and he still cares about this fair thing, the emperor is here to prevent some ministers of the Qin and Twilight Chu from having any dirty ideas in private." Fei Ziran thinks that the emperor's approach has his deep meaning.

"Minister? Without the signal of the master from above, what minister would not want to die. Yan Ruojiu knew that leaking the exam papers was like collaborating with the enemy and treason, and the crime was extremely serious, but she didn't think that any minister would be stupid.

"Hehe, the emperor doesn't lack anything, he doesn't have to do this, but some courtiers, as long as the temptation is enough, they will still do risky things under the weighing of pros and cons, this is the core of the game in officialdom, Ah Wei, just like what I saw in some books, the emperor is sometimes not deaf and clear-sighted, there are always some dark corners where dirty and dirty things happen, this is the norm, and it can't be changed." Fei Ziran saw it thoroughly.

"That'...... Brother Ran, do you still want to take the exam? Yan Ruojiu knew in her heart that her brother Ziran was not a person who liked to cheat.

"Hehe, who said that if you are shortlisted, you will enter the palace as an official, I just have nothing to do and pass the time, but if I can enter the Hanlin Academy, then the books in the library in the palace will not be allowed to be read by me, this is not a loss-making deal." Fei Ziran said very casually.

"Uh...... Brother Ziran, fortunately, I'm here to see you off today, if your father and mother hear this, you will have to explain some reason to you. Yan Ruojiu accepted Fei Ziran's idea calmly, but she also knew that such an idea would naturally not be approved by her father and mother.

Fei Ziran smiled and said: "So I have to take the test, so I will give an explanation to my uncle and aunt." ”

"Hehe, that's right, no wonder it's almost the day of the exam, you still have the heart to stay up late to repair that song scroll, there is really no tension at all, and I was misunderstood by my mother." Yan Ruojiu muttered a little depressedly.

"Auntie misunderstood you?" Fei Ziran was puzzled.

"Well, it's not, otherwise why haven't I come out to look for you for more than half a month." Yan Ruojiu was really a little aggrieved when she talked about this.

"Didn't my uncle say that you have to learn etiquette rules from your fifth sister in the mansion these days." Fei Ziran said strangely.

"Etiquette? It's not, it's my father and mother who are afraid that I will always pester you and affect your Wenshu, so they explicitly forbade me to go out of the house to find you during this time. Yan Ruojiu pouted and said very depressedly: "Obviously, Brother Ziran feels relaxed, but it is dispensable, but my father and mother both think it is my problem, and I have been holding me for more than half a month, can I not be wronged." ”

"Hehe, that's the case, I'll just say that no matter how you talk today, it's a little aggrieved, so that's the case, it's really because Brother Ziran has wronged you, I'm sorry." Fei Ziran pinched Yan Ruojiu's fleshy little face and said with a smile.

"Really, I'm sorry, I haven't been out of the house for half a month, how many scripts have been read less, and how many delicious foods have been eaten, isn't this Brother Ziran going to make up for it?" Yan Ruojiu will climb along the pole.

"Hehehe, you ghost girl, you were waiting for me here, okay, compensate, compensate, I must compensate you, how can I say that you are also wronged because of me, Brother Ziran must compensate you, so let's take you to eat the good things you want to eat at the end of this meeting, how about it?" Fei Ziran discussed with a smile.

"Really?" Yan Ruojiu herself just wanted to complain and complain, but she didn't expect Fei Ziran to take it seriously.

"Seriously!" Fei Ziran said with a sincere face.

"Then, you have to tell your mother about this in person." Yan Ruojiu really wanted to go out to eat and drink with Fei Ziran.

"Okay, I'll go tell you." Fei Ziran agreed to come down.

"Hehe, it's better to be Brother Ziran." Yan Ruojiu received some extra compensation, and her mood naturally became cheerful.

At this time, outside the carriage, Uncle Zhang said: "Childe, that head seems to be the forbidden army in the palace has come, and it looks like it is holding some box." ”

"Forbidden Army?" Yan Ruojiu and Fei Ziran were surprised to go out and watch.

Sure enough, I saw a team of purple-robed guards marching forward with swords, and the first ten in front of them were all riding on tall horses, looking majestic and solemn, and the candidates who were crowded at the entrance of the examination room were also shocked by this battle and retreated.

After a while, I saw the guards in green clothes lined up for martial law, forming a wide path in the crowd.

Yan Ruojiu was speechless in her heart, this Tianzi Enke is really pompous, even the forbidden army in the palace has come, and he can't see that his aura is weak.

Fei Ziran also looked at the mighty team with a serious face, and didn't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, Yan Ruojiu seemed to see a somewhat familiar face, she frowned and leaned over for a long time before saying, "Brother Ziran, do you think that the person on the tall horse and the person wearing the dark color is not like the owner of the snow-treading horse I met that day?" ”

"You mean Jiang Sangongzi?" Fei Ziran was a little puzzled.

"Isn't it like?" Yan Ruojiu was asked a little uncertainly.

"It's not really, but the general outline is somewhat similar." Fei Ziran said.

As he was talking, the door of the examination room suddenly opened, and two officials of no lower rank trotted out all the way out, and did not stop until they were not far from the forbidden army, waiting extremely respectfully but slightly anxiously.

Yan Ruojiu couldn't see it really, so he simply stood upright on the carriage and looked out, and really looked at the person riding the horse at the front, raised his hand to signal, and the whole team stopped.

Yan Ruojiu thought that this must be a big deal, so she leaned over and tilted her ears to try to hear what they had to say.
