ps: The monthly pass, it's miserable, I ask for more support, thank you.

"Haha, it seems that Brother Tai is so happy that he hasn't completely sobered up yet."

At this moment, Long Aotian pursed his lips and smiled, with a bit of grace, he beckoned gently: "Come on, offer a few glasses of soul awakening wine, let him sober up again......"

A group of people next to him were naturally very cooperative, and the fragrant wine was immediately served. The mellow wine entered his throat, Qi Xiang was not affected by the power of the wine, and his mind slowly became confused, and as expected, he fell to the ground with a bang.

In a daze, he seemed to see a woman with bright eyes and bright teeth, as beautiful as a fairy, who had been taking care of himself beside him. He tried to open it to see more clearly, but he felt dizzy and fell asleep again.

When he woke up again, he found himself in a palatial hall.

At this moment, a feast was being held in the hall, and he sat high in the front row. In front of him, there were several middle-aged men with white faces and long beards, wearing crimson official robes.

Behind him were dozens of young men with elegant manners. At this time, a group of young people were singing chords, and their cheerful and loud voices echoed in the hall.

"Yo yo deer chirping, apple of the wild food. I have guests, drummers and shengs. ”

“……，……。”

"Yo yo deer singing, eating wild artemisia. I have a guest, Deyin Kong Zhao. ”

“……，……。”

"Yo Yo Lu Ming, eat the wild Qin. I have guests, drums and pianos. ”

“……，……。”

Elegant poetry, full of quaint charm.

Qi Xiang listened for a moment, and suddenly realized that this was a deer feast.

The Luming Banquet is a kind of banquet stipulated in the imperial examination system. Generally, it is the next day after the township trial list. Banquet to the new imperial examination and internal and external curtain officials, etc., the deer song in the poetry chapter, the division is called the deer ming banquet.

The content of the Psalms. It means that the young deer has a delicious food and does not forget its partners, and it is a cry to invite the same kind to eat together.

The ancients considered this to be a virtue. There is a gentleman's style, so the upward and downward effect, the Son of Heaven banquets the ministers, and the local officials banquet colleagues and local gentry, using this move to buy people's hearts and show their courtesy and virtuous corporal.

Being able to participate in the Luming Banquet doesn't it mean that you have been lifted?

Qi Xiang was in a trance, and it didn't take long for him to be admitted to Xiao Sanyuan's case show. And then you were lifted?

"Brother Xie Yuan, what are you thinking?"

Unexpectedly, there was an elegant voice behind him.

Qi Xiang hurriedly looked back, only to see Long Aotian smashing his cup, and said with a smile: "Brother Tai lived up to expectations, after studying in the mansion for a year, he participated in the Autumn Festival, took the lead, and won the position of Xie Yuan, which is admirable." ”

"Xie Yuan?" Qi Xiang was a little surprised: "I'm Xie Yuan?" ”

"It's nature." Long Aotian chuckled, "It seems." In the future, I will change my words, and I will call Brother Xie Yuan. ”

"Brother Long, you're laughing at me again." Qi Xiang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm Xie Yuan." It's a little inexplicable......"

"Nonsense, you are arrogant again." Long Aotian frowned and said: "Your poetry talent is unparalleled, and you have shocked the land of a state, and you are famous in the entire Jiangnan region." Even in all the northern parts of the country, your psalms are circulated. ”

"The name of the poet will be famous all over the world sooner or later. You Xie Yuan, everyone is convinced, and no one can say half a word. ”

Long Aotian was very happy: "And a few adults also said just now, with your literary talent." As long as you study hard, you will go to Beijing to take the exam next year. It's not a problem to get a jinshi. If you are lucky, you may be able to be appointed as the champion by the emperor. ”

"Champion?" Qi Xiang smiled. I don't dare to think: "I accept your good words." ”

"You'll be able to do it." Long Aotian encouraged him, but there was a touch of melancholy between his eyebrows: "It's a pity, my father at home sent a letter urging me to return to my hometown to visit relatives, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you to Beijing in the coming year." ”

"What?" Qi Xiang was a little anxious: "You're not going?" ”

Seeing that Qi Xiang was in a hurry, Long Aotian's smile warmed, and his eyes brightened: "No way, I've been out for two years." Parents at home are worried and worried, and if they don't go back, they should be angry. ”

"This is also, parents are here, it is indeed not advisable to travel far." Qi Xiang sighed helplessly and expressed his understanding.

Long Aotian nodded slightly, and his mood was also a little low: "Brother Tai, we are parting, I don't know when we will see each other again in the future, I hope you don't forget me...... This one friend. ”

"Brother Long, you and I are confidants, how can we forget each other?" Qi Xiang smiled: "By the way, where is your home?" When I come back from the capital, whether I am in high school or not, I will go to meet you. ”

"It's a deal!"

Long Aotian's eyebrows stretched, and he was very happy: "This is what you said, don't forget it." ”

"I won't forget."

Qi Xiang nodded solemnly: "A gentleman's word, absolutely no regrets." ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

Long Aotian smiled, then took out a brocade box in his arms, and carefully advised: "My home is on the shore of Daze Lake, after you go, take this token, find someone to inquire about Longjiazhuang, and you can see me." ”

"Tokens?"

Qi Xiang opened the box and saw that the box was a very exquisite conch. The palm-sized conch has a hard and fine texture, and the surface exudes a brilliant luster, which looks precious.

Qi Xiang looked at the conch intently, and vaguely felt that this conch had a sense of déjà vu.

"Eh, Master Hui, what are you looking at?"

The crisp voice came, which also made Qi Xiang look back to his senses.

This is the capital, the most prosperous and lively place in the world, the city tower is lined up, the guests seem to gather, bustling. Countless merchant ships shuttle back and forth, the literary style is gathered, and the paper is drunk and golden.

He went to Beijing to catch the exam, and after some twists and turns, he stepped on a lot of people, slapped many faces, successfully participated in the examination, and finally won the crown and became the first place in the examination, Huiyuan.

Even winning five yuan is not only a huge glory, but also a great prestige. Now in the capital, from the dignitaries to the common people, they are all speculating whether he can complete the feat of six yuan in the company.

This naturally brought him a lot of troubles, but he made a lot of friends because of it. Among them, the closest friend is the young man who is now walking around.

Seeing this person, Qi Xiang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Anglo-Taiwanese ......"

Qi Xiang opened his mouth to say hello, and he smelled a faint fragrance, which was a gentle daughter fragrance. He's not stupid, he can see it. The young man in front of him has white and tender skin and slender fingers. Soft as boneless.

A green silk show, even if it is in a bun. It can't hide the slenderness and softness in it. In addition, there are faint traces of fat powder on the delicate little face, which is very obvious.

The voice is crisp and soft, if you can't see that the other party is a woman, Qi Xiang feels that he should dig out and throw away his eyes, anyway, it's useless to keep them.

But I thought that the other party was actually called Yingtai. Qi Xiang also felt strange in his heart, he was not called Shanbo.

"Master Huiyuan, it's about to be tried."

The young man who was easy to hairpin walked over with a smile and said closely: "Are you ready?" ”

"Prepare what?" Qi Xiang was a little surprised, after all, he had already passed the examination, and the next palace examination was nothing more than a passing motion. No matter how bad his grades are, he is indispensable to the title of a jinshi.

"Pretending to be stupid, of course it's the top score." The young man's face was a little red. seemed to be a little shy: "I've heard that this time the palace test, but there is an insider." ”

"What the inside story?" Qi Xiang was taken aback. Nor do I doubt it. After all, he also felt that the young man in front of him, who was dressed as a man, had a relatively noble background and an extraordinary family background, and it was not unusual to know some insider information.

The young man tugged at the corners of his clothes, lowered his head and said, "I heard...... Under the emperor's knees, there is a princess of the right age to be married. If anyone wins the champion, there is a good chance, and the horse is still a horse. ”

"Shang Pony?" Qi Xiang was stunned.

"That's right." The boy smiled. The little hand patted his shoulder and cheered up, "Master Hui." You've got to work hard. I'm optimistic about you, maybe in a few days. It's time to change your name to Master Horse......"

The boy left behind a string of crisp laughter like a silver smile, and then faded away.

Qi Xiang shook his head, and suddenly his eyes flickered, and the scene changed again. He sat in a splendid palace, with high-ranking officials and magnates in front and new scholars on the side.

"The emperor has arrived."

On the ground, a eunuch shouted, and a sharp and piercing voice spread, which also made everyone hurriedly bow down to greet him.

"Zhongqing is flat."

The emperor is a rather heroic middle-aged man, who has been on the throne for five or six years, and has firmly seized power through the means of grace and power, which makes the civil and military officials both respectful and awe-inspiring.

From this point of view, the emperor is not a faint king, but also a blessing to many people.

"Today is the Qionglin Banquet, you don't have to be restrained."

The emperor sat on the high seat, and his voice was steady and kind: "Where is the champion?" ”

"The minister is here ......"

Under the reminder of a little eunuch, Qi Xiang hurriedly stood up, and then saluted alone, shouting long live.

"Haha, my six champions are really heroic, no wonder ......"

The emperor glanced at it and immediately smiled: "Champion Gong, can there be a marriage match?" ”

"Ah......" Qi Xiang was stunned and subconsciously shook his head.

The emperor smiled again, and his attitude became more and more amiable: "I have a daughter, who is close to Qing's age, is it okay to marry you?" ”

For a while, there was an uproar at the Qionglin banquet.

Many people looked at Qi Xiang with envy, jealousy and hatred, brushing and swiping through Qi Xiang's body.

The night of candles in the cave room, when the gold list is inscribed, this is the biggest joy in life. What's more, she is still Princess Shang, as a colt, this is simply a big winner in life.

Qi Xiang was a little stunned, and couldn't help but look up. Behind the emperor, among a group of pretty palace maids, he saw a familiar figure, but it was a handsome young man named Yingtai.

However, at this time, the young man had already changed into red makeup, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes, and her temperament was very noble, and she looked beautiful against the backdrop of jewelry and jade.

The two made eye contact, the girl bowed her head shyly, and between the warm skin of the snow, there was a faint carmine light.

In an instant, Qi Xiang's eyes were confused, his mind was in a trance, and he heard the emperor's inquiry in his ears: "What is the intention of Qing?" ”

"Minister......

After a long while, Qi Xiang came back to his senses, made a difficult choice, hit his head on the ground, and said astringently: "The minister's fortune is shallow, I'm afraid I can't bear the emperor's great favor......"

"What did you say?"

There was silence at the scene, only the emperor's thunderous anger echoed: "Hmph, I don't know how to lift!" ”

"Death penalty!"

"You really deserve to die, someone, drag him out, behead him!"

Qi Xiang leaned down, physically and mentally cold...... (To be continued)
