Bai Nian left the Autumn Goose Pavilion, and when he left, his eyes were less confused when he came, and more firm and clear. Even the corners of his mouth, which were originally tightly pursed, relaxed a lot.
Lu Mansheng pushed open the window, looking at Bai Nian's departing little back, his cold eyes were like a gust of wind, and they softened a lot.
Soon, the news about the final round of the exam came down.
It is very different from usual, and the fourth round of this year's examination will be assessed by the emperor himself together with the palace examination. And the location of the assessment is not in Xinglin Garden, but in the Dayao Palace.
This is not only because this year's Apricot Grove Festival is a groundbreaking year, but also because the third round of the examination has eliminated too many candidates. Combined, there are only forty. In previous years, the number of people who participated in the temple examination was higher than this.
Hearing the news, the candidates were more or less nervous, but more eager to try. This is a good opportunity to be appreciated by the adults of the Emperor's Monk Medical Bureau, and he was personally selected by the Holy Lord, so his future in the Shang Medical Bureau can be said to be unlimited.
Now, all they have to do is go back to their respective places, pack up, and prepare. Tomorrow afternoon, gather outside Xinglin Garden. At that time, the palace will send a special carriage to pick up these candidates into the palace.
In the palace, they don't need to worry about eating and drinking. Each candidate is equipped with the exclusive clothing of Xinglin candidates and eats in a unified place. As soon as they obey the instructions of the examiners, there are arrangements and instructions in advance on what to do, and all the candidates have to do is how to perform well in front of His Majesty. It does not disgrace the reputation of Xinglin candidates.
Most of the candidates chose to stay in Xinglin Court and only wait for tomorrow's departure. Some people make the most of the day. Prepare everything they might need in the palace.
Anyone who is smart knows what these things refer to.
Those who have entered the palace and those who have not entered the palace have such a concept. In a place like the palace, it is easy to do things with silver, but it is difficult to move an inch without silver.
The palace is not like the Shang Yi Bureau, there are countless people there, and there are many places where silver can be used. Clever use. It will help you move up in your career.
Some people scoff at this. hasn't entered the officialdom yet, so I'll learn the smoky miasma in the officialdom. Don't forget. They are doctors, and the emperor chose them to save people, not to be officials.
Lu Mansheng originally wanted to stay in Xinglin Yuan, and it was okay for her to go out anyway. Let a sleeping dog lie. If there is anything to do, let's wait to concentrate on completing the Xinglin exam.
But in the end, she went back. Shopkeeper Xu and Xiaohuo should also be waiting for her news. This time I went to the palace, and I didn't know when I would be able to go back, and Lu Mansheng felt that he should go back and talk to them.
There's another thing, and that's picturesque.
For Picturesque, Lu Mansheng is not as cold as she says. This man who helped her in her most difficult times. Because her involvement is being severely hurt by a person, how can she be completely indifferent?
Something. She didn't want to touch it because she knew that there were some things, some consequences that she simply couldn't afford. However, there should also be a time limit for escape, and what should happen will still happen, and only by facing it can we be truly liberated.
At the very least, she had to make sure that Picturesque, who no longer had any contact with her, was not treated more excessively. I hope her previous decision was correct, otherwise, Lu Mansheng may regret it for the rest of her life.
Gao Risheng dealt with Picturesque, just because Picturesque was a rare person that Lu Mansheng cared about. He deeply understands what kind of person Lu Mansheng is, and knows that the most inseparable thing about her, whether it was before or now, is the affection and kindness of others to her.
But Lu Mansheng disappointed him last time.
In the face of the picturesque suffering, she never looked back. Ruhua's move is useless, he should also let her go, right?
Lu Mansheng did think so, but when it happened, she still felt that she was too naïve.
Fortune Inn.
The shopkeeper and Xiaohuo were so excited that they were so excited that they learned that Lu Mansheng had been making a breakthrough all the way and had successfully obtained the ticket to the palace examination.
The shopkeeper stopped greeting guests early, personally cooked for Lu Mansheng, and cooked a few of the best dishes to celebrate Lu Mansheng.
Sister-in-law Xu also rushed over, she had an illness before, and the illness was very painful, and many doctors had no choice. In the end, it was Lu Mansheng who cured her. Now she is much better and can help her husband in the inn.
The shopkeeper took such good care of Lu Mansheng, and a big reason was also because of this incident.
The couple had only one son, who was away all the year round and only came home twice a year. How lonely it is to be old, Sister-in-law Xu and the shopkeeper want a caring daughter, although Lu Mansheng is not intimate enough, but the heart is excellent. At least, in the eyes of the couple, that's the case.
This girl, at first, looked cold, but when she got used to it, she found that this girl was more sensible than many daughters, and she was more worry-free, and always silently cared about the people around her in her own way. Over time, the shopkeeper and his wife regarded Lu Mansheng as their own and treated her like a daughter.
Lu Mansheng is not used to being too enthusiastic about the scene, usually when others are lively, she sits in a corner, as if she is out of the world. She exists in itself, which means tranquility. No matter how noisy the situation is, it can't affect her for half a point.
However, this time, Sister-in-law Xu's shopkeeper and Xiaohuo also found the difference in Lu Mansheng. In the past, the road girl would make people can't help but behave in front of her, and they didn't dare to make too much noise. When she looks at her cold eyes, the smile on her face will freeze.
At this time, Lu Man's voice was still very little, but the breath around him was soft. It's no longer an alienation that rejects people thousands of miles away, but a kind of connivance that doesn't matter how much you make a fuss.
Everyone is even more bold, you come and go, for Lu Mansheng to pick up the dishes, pour the wine. Let her cheer up in the palace, and let the people in the palace scare her.
It was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, and under the non-stop toasting of the three of them, Lu Mansheng also drank a few glasses. Fortunately, these three people knew that Lu Man would enter the palace on the same day, and they didn't dare to let her drink more, so they just said that they were happy.
It's just that this wine has a lot of stamina. After a few cups, Lu Mansheng's cheeks turned crimson. Under the veil, others can't see it.
When Lu Mansheng went upstairs, his steps were already a little messy. The shopkeeper and Xiaohuo are still lying on the table, you and I have a cup, shouting that I am not drunk, and I am happy today.
There is about to be a big imperial doctor in their building, and they are as happy as watching a child grow up and become a dragon among people.
Sister-in-law Xu kept shaking her head, but the people were not as forgetful as him. As he spoke, he walked to the side of the hanger, took a large coat, and draped it over her husband's shoulders.
His father hadn't been so happy in years. Sister-in-law Xu thought with a smile.
And the small fire, one by one, burrowed under the table. Holding the table, I fell asleep and was not afraid of catching a cold.
Sister-in-law Xu recruited other people to get these two people to their respective beds.
As soon as his father got drunk, he snored loudly. Tonight, she didn't want to sleep.
Lu Mansheng went back upstairs and pushed open the door to his room. She has been gone for a few days, and the room is still in the same place, but it is clean, and even the quilt cover has just been changed today.
Touching the clean and neat quilt, and looking at the newly cleaned room, Lu Mansheng suddenly wanted to cry.
She thought she was helpless in this world, and she resisted the Qiē around her with a mask of indifference. And in fact, she is a very happy person. Enjoying the unrequited giving and care of others, even if she is anywhere, she is always concerned about her.
Aren't such people relatives relatives?
This night, Lu Mansheng hugged the quilt that still exuded the smell of sunshine, and fell asleep peacefully under the impetus of alcohol.
In the dream, she dreamed of some people, and some things:
"Mansheng, come in, what are you doing standing outside? My little mansheng, will you also be shy? The gentle husband pulled the outside and buried his head in the wall, and refused to obediently walk in the little wife.
"Where, how can there be!" She has never been afraid of heaven and earth, isn't it just when she sees his relatives, she won't be afraid! Also, don't call her "my little man", the flesh is numb, where did he call it from?
"Since there isn't, then please." The husband shrugged his shoulders and pointed to the door that had been opened.
In the door, the sound of the master busy in the kitchen could be heard, and the two elders were very happy to learn that their son was going to bring his daughter-in-law back. Prepare early for the arrival of your new daughter-in-law.
"Little Mansheng ......"
"You know, don't even call it that." Lu Mansheng finally raised his head, and there were two interesting blush floating on his fair face, which made her husband fall in love. If it weren't for the fear that Man Sheng would be angry, he really wanted to pinch it.
Lu Mansheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it. Then he turned his head, picked his chin with his index finger, and asked solemnly, "How am I feeling today?" If you ignore her slightly trembling tone, it is still quite domineering.
"Perfect!"
Hmm, Lu Man snorted in satisfaction. "Is your mother's color the color of your clothes?"
"Mansheng, it's your mother now, too."
"Oh, is that the color of the dress your and my mother's liking?"
"...... "What is this?" However, Mansheng is really nervous, right? It feels good to care about him so much.
"Not only do you and my mom like it, but even you and my dad like it." My husband said.
"Where's the shoes?" Lu Mansheng moved the fingers on his chin again, making him look at her feet.
"Beautiful!"
"And your twin brother?" For that brother, the husband is very loving.
"Don't worry about this mansheng, he, as long as my brother likes it, he will like it." In the same way, as long as he hates it, he hates it! (To be continued......)
