On 26 February, the conscripts of Jinshui County once again marched to the northwest with military rations, and at the gate of the British Mansion, there was also a carriage ready to go to the northwest. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Liu Yuxu was ashamed to say goodbye to the Duchess of another country, and was about to board the carriage, but a small yellow gate rushed over to the imperial city, and passed the message of the noble concubine Niangniang to the Duchess of the country, saying that the mother asked the holy monk, and Liu's Yuwu and Zhang Xin's eight characters did not agree, and the matter of accepting a concubine was stopped.

Liu Yuxu fainted immediately after listening to the words of the concubine Niangniang, the Duchess was shocked and angry, and hurriedly changed her palace clothes without taking care of her niece, intending to enter the palace to meet the concubine Niangniang to learn more about it, but she was stopped at the gate of the palace.

Black Hawk hid in the dark, crossed his arms to admire the chaos in front of the British Mansion, when he saw the stunned Liu Yuwu being carried into the Guogong Mansion, and the Duchess promised her sister-in-law that she would treat Liu Yuwu like her own daughter, Black Hawk lowered his arms and became serious.

It seems that this farce of concubines did not end perfectly, and this bad news must be sent out as soon as possible, so that the prince can make plans early.

"San'er shouldn't have gone far yet, I have to hurry up and chase it." The black hawk grunted and turned around, his usual dress and ordinary face made him quickly merge into the flow of people in the street, without attracting the attention of the British government.

The arrival of the two brothers-in-law did not bring big trouble to Shubai as Mrs. Lin expected, but the Mo family had a lot of laughter because of this, Li Niang was bored, and she became the king of children during the day, taking the three boys to read, practice words, play games and tell stories, and detain them in the courtyard of the second entrance, so as not to disturb the brother to review and prepare for the exam.

In order to coax the little baby, Li Niang asked Ji Xiaoba to make a move, and conjured up a copy of Journey to the West for her, a traditional version, every day after the boys read the prescribed bibliography and wrote the prescribed big characters, she took out the Journey to the West and read them a few chapters.

Lin Cuiping came to listen to it occasionally, and fell in love with this ups and downs of the fairy story, every day when it was time for Journey to the West, she put down what she was doing and rushed to Qingyuan's yard, and listened to Li Niang's story with the children, and the maids who had nothing to do also ran over.

The warmth of the family, the peaceful environment, and the strong backing of his sister, Shubai survived very easily to Enke to start the exam.

There is still a war in the northwest, and the treasury is still very empty, this time Enke Jinshui County and the students in the capital share the tribute academy exam in the southeast of the city, and the news reached the Mo family, and the whole family was happy for Shubai, how many things have been saved.

Lin Cuiping prepared the necessary guys for the exam for Xianggong early, also known as the exam basket, which has special dishes, chopsticks, small pots and small stoves, and the deluxe version is also printed with auspicious patterns such as five sons Dengke, champions and younger brothers.

The township test is a long process, to take three consecutive exams, each one takes three days, the examination room only prepares a pot of charcoal fire and a candle for the candidates, and the problem of eating and drinking has to be solved by the candidates themselves, so the preparation of the exam basket has to be very careful.

Shubai has his father's experience in the past, and knows that he can't have any luck, he can't bring his bag, he can't bring lumps of food, he asked Li Niang to prepare some rice for him, a little fried noodles, and then decorate some dried radish and fried shredded pork, barely dealing with it for three days.

Lin Cuiping was a little jealous, why did she let her sister-in-law prepare to eat and not let herself get her hands dirty? Is he afraid that he will harm him?

Li Niang took the task, happily went to work in the kitchen, Shubai looked back and saw that the lady's face was not good-looking, and hurriedly explained to her: "The lady has been working hard for her husband these days, she has worked hard, sit down and rest, come to drink tea, and let Li Niang do the little things, she always says that she is bored, we have to find something for her to do from time to time, so that she always wants to run outside, you also know that she is eleven years old this year, and she can no longer let her run around the mountains and fields like before." ”

When it came to the education of her sister-in-law, Lin Cuiping really turned her attention away, and actually interceded for Li Niang, "It's not good to keep the child at home all the time, it's better to do this, wait for the public to release the list, let's go back to Xiaowan Village to live for a few days, everyone is loose and loose, and by the way, take a look at the situation in the field." ”

Shubai naturally said, "This matter is decided, you clean up the last game early, and we will leave as soon as I appear." ”

On the eighth day of the first month of March, just after the child, the Mo family moved, Shubai ate a full meal, drank a bowl of peach nectar brewed with Lingzhu water, and set off to the examination room in good spirits.

The carriage went to the southeast, and the more vehicles and pedestrians on the road, fortunately, the Shubai brothers and sisters set off earlier, which belonged to the forefront, and the traffic was quite smooth, and the road went smoothly to the Gongyuan.

There are Praetorian Guards guarding the street leading to the Gongyuan, and all cars are not allowed to enter, Shubai tied his cloak, carried an exam basket, carried a small lantern, and said goodbye to his sister with a smile: "Go back, brother will go in, remember to come to pick up on the morning of the tenth day of the new year." ”

"Brother, you go first, I'll see you go in here and then go." Li Niang is stubborn and stubborn, no one will persuade her, so Shubai has to go to the tribute house first.

Li Niang asked Liu Shun and Mo Yu to turn around and drive out first, and waited in the open field, she and Mo Wen walked into Gongyuan Street empty-handed, and watched her brother walk into Gongyuan in a long line from a distance.

Facing Liu Shun and Mo Yu's inquiring eyes, Li Niang smiled slightly, "Everything goes well, let's go home." ”

"Well, sit down." Liu Shun threw up the horsewhip, the jujube red horse howled, and galloped away with four hooves, so frightened that Liu Shun quickly tightened the reins, "Feed my little ancestor slowly, don't make Miss uncomfortable." ”

Passers-by all looked at this side and laughed, and some people called horses as ancestors, which was really amazing.

The red dates haven't come out to let off the wind for a long time, where are they willing to listen to Liu Shun's words, grinning and running forward, Mo Yu and Mo Wen who were sitting on the board at the back of the carriage fought for their lives, and grabbed the lanyard on the side to avoid being thrown out.

Li Niang was hurt by her little buttocks, and she was angry, and let out a coquettish voice: "Red dates!" Don't slow down again! I'll stew you when I go back! ”

In the laughter of passers-by, the jujube red horse shook the horse's head and slowed down, Liu Shun loosened the reins, covered his chest and panted, "My mother, I won't dare to let you come out to play next time." ”

The jujube red horse turned around with a snort, staring at Liu Shun, the anger in his eyes frightened Liu Shun, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, I'm talking about playing, and I'll pick up the master with you the day after tomorrow." ”

The jujube red horse shook his neck arrogantly, and went straight to Huali Hutong with his head held high.

On a big tree in the distance, the black eagle shrank in the canopy and muttered: "There are such humane horses in the world, but they are comparable to the wind chasing the prince of the world." (To be continued.) )
