In the third year of Xuanhe, on the ninth day of February, today, the weather in Bianliang, Tokyo is exceptionally sunny, the spring is warm, the clouds are light and the wind is light, and it is full of style.

There is a street about 100 steps wide outside the Xuande Gate, the two sides of the official office stand in a forest, the center is the royal road, no people and horses can go, go south for three miles to conform to the gate, the north three miles can enter the Imperial City of the Son of Heaven, so the street is named - Shuntian Street.

Shuntian Street, the gate of the Gongyuan, at this time the traffic is like a stream, the figure is like weaving, and as far as the eye can see, there are mostly scholars wearing light-colored robes.

On a relatively secluded corner of the street, a brocade-clad carriage is parked, and on the side of the carriage, a gilded cigarette character shows the identity of the owner.

In the car, Li Bei'er once again sorted out the placket and hanging accessories for Li Yan, which was quite reluctant.

Yan Jiuniang also changed her previous style, and a very small woman took out a piece of pastry from the snack box and fed it herself, but was disgusted by Li Yan.

She said unhappily: "Eat quickly, Kyoto people pay attention to this, you must eat a piece of flower cake from the champion building before the scientific examination, which means good and can be high school." ”

Li Yan stuffed the pastry into his mouth painfully and complained: "In the morning, it was lotus seed soup, sugarcane crisp, and sorghum cake. ”

"Phew, pick up some auspicious ones." As he spoke, Li Bei'er tied a lucky bag around his waist again.

Li Yan smiled bitterly and said, "It's really unnecessary, the result has been decided, if the saint wants me to be selected, I can be on the list without taking the exam." If he doesn't want me to win, it's useless to eat dragon meat......"

Before he finished speaking, a jade hand covered his mouth, and Yan Jiuniang Zou Mei said: "Don't talk nonsense, this place is not as good as the house, if you let the people with bad intentions listen to it, it will be a big disaster." ”

Li Yan stretched out the tip of his tongue and teased Yan Jiuniang's jade hand, and Yan Jiuniang shrank back in disgust.

At this time, Wang Dalang's voice came from outside the carriage: "Uncle, your examination house is the No. 9 room. ”

"No. 9?" Yan Jiuniang said angrily: "Isn't that the innermost room? ”

Wang Dalang replied: "Yes, yes. ”

"Which bastard is the test house, this is deliberately to humiliate the minister, go and inquire, there is still some work before the entrance, see if I don't sue him!" Yan Jiuniang said annoyedly.

"Yes."

"Brother Wang, don't go." Li Yan lifted the curtain and called Wang Dalang.

Then he smiled at Yan Jiuniang and said: "It's good to be in the back, I've been sitting in the back row since I was a child, and I'm used to it." In our place, the front row is the school area, the middle is the rest area, and the back row is the pension area. ”

With that, he stretched out and yawned.

Such a frivolous appearance attracted the "revenge" of the second daughter, and she received a heavy "punch" on the left and right ribs.

Song San patted the car window and said, "Hey, I see that everyone else has gone in, why aren't you in a hurry?" ”

In a word, the fighting in the car stopped, and the three of them all looked serious, and Li Yan took a long breath and said, "I will miss you for four days." ”

"Go ahead, don't be a mother-in-law." Yan Jiuniang tidied up her sideburns.

Li Yan took a sip of incense on the faces of the two daughters, and then reluctantly jumped out of the carriage, and was surrounded by Chen He, Song San, Fan Er and others, and walked towards the gate of the Gongyuan Courtyard.

When he got closer, seeing that there was no sign of entry, Li Yan glared at Song San angrily: "You have learned badly, and you actually lied to me." ”

Chen He smiled: "You didn't expect that one day you would be deceived by the eldest brother." ”

"Hey...... I haven't seen you for three days, when you look at each other, what have you experienced along the way? It's not as pure as it used to be. Li Yan complained.

Song San scratched his head and smirked......

While they were talking and laughing, they heard one of them shouting: Look, the float is coming!

As soon as these words came out, the noisy crowd instantly quieted down, and they all turned their heads to look at the end of the street.

Li Yan and the others also followed everyone's line of sight, and saw a four-legged carriage slowly coming from south to north, and there was no carriage, but it was transformed into a huge lotus flower, and layers of petals bloomed in all directions, which was vivid.

In the middle of the lotus, stands a handsome woman with a slender figure, her temples are bright red, a little powder, the voice of a warbler is faintly audible, and there is wind music accompaniment next to the car.

"It's Xu Dongdong!" The sharp-eyed scholar shouted, his voice trembling a little with excitement.

"There's still in the back, there's still in the back!" Another scholar shouted.

……

A richly dressed scholar snorted coldly with disdain, glanced at Li Yan with his peripheral vision, and saw that his temperament was extraordinary and his clothes were not good, so he knew that he was the son of a large family, as if he had found the same kind, and pointed at the crowd arrogantly with a fan:

"Look at these remote people who have never seen the world, they are just a few courtesans, and they are excited like this, how can they have half of the arrogance of Confucianism."

Li Yan laughed secretly in his heart, this is called judging people by their appearance, regional discrimination, but they don't know that he Li Yan is also a remote person, but he has two ladies with good taste to help match.

Looking at the scholar's arrogant appearance, Li Yan intended to tease him, so he said with a northeastern accent in his previous life: "It's not good, I haven't seen the world, and the bean is not a hit." The silver of the muns is not like this. ”

After speaking, the scholar was stunned for a moment, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and looked at Li Yan's eyes with extreme disgust, and hurriedly pulled a distance and retreated a few steps to the side.

Ha ha......

Chen He and the others laughed unabashedly, fortunately covered up by the sound of musical instruments, otherwise such unbridled laughter would definitely attract the attention of officers and soldiers.

Floats slowly passed in front of the Gongyuan one after another, and the four major Oirans all came to cheer for the students, and this group of Confucian students were also like taking stimulants, their emotions were excited, and the tension before the exam disappeared in an instant.

Suddenly, a wave of sound broke out in the crowd that was several times better than before, and after a while, they began to shout in unison: Master! Teacher! Teacher!

Li Yan squinted his eyes, and his expression was extremely serious, because he saw that the master came out without a veil.

And today's makeup is quite charming.

I saw that she was wearing a fairy skirt, with a pink silk hanging on her elbows, a high bundle of double eyes looking at the fairy temples, two red wide eyebrows, shaped like the wings of a seagull, and the eyebrows extended to the depths of the sideburns like a sword, and on the forehead, there was a plum blossom golden day.

Eyes like autumn water, as deep as stars, red lips and teeth, skin like white jade, sitting on the float, cocking orchid fingers, elegantly plucking silk strings, singing euphemistic tunes, such a beautiful woman, enough to make everything in the world fall for it.

When the float arrived at the gate of the Tribute Courtyard, it stopped until a song ended, and a violet was folded from the vase beside him and handed it to the little maid under the car.

The little maid held the flower and walked towards the crowd.

Connection.

All the students at the gate of the Gongyuan let out a piercing exclamation at the same time, they didn't know who this flower was given to, and at the same time, they all thought that this flower was given to themselves.

At least, they had a long time before the results came out......
