Just after the third watch, the Qian Mansion was brightly lit up and down, the heads were stirring, Yang Wen and Ma Steward were busy setting up the car, Zhang San took out the freshly baked dim sum and packed it, and Lu led Keqing to check the box again to see if there was anything missing.

Only Suiyuan was still quiet, Xiangling carefully pushed the door out, panting and running out of the yard, "Second master, young master is still sleeping...... Still snoring. ”

"Let him sleep." Qian Zheng was stunned for a moment before shaking his head and laughing: "I don't mean to have such determination." ”

Qian Zheng was also admitted all the way, in addition to the palace exam, the remaining five levels, he always tossed and turned before each exam and found it difficult to sleep, which is actually a common problem for most candidates, so he praised Qian Yuan for his determination.

Well, not really.

Or was forced out.

In his previous life, when he was in the criminal police team, he often had to go on a mission, and when he encountered a big case, Qian Yuan developed this habit, as long as he had the opportunity, he could fall asleep quickly, even if he had to be arrested with a gun a few hours later, he could sleep...... Otherwise, when the time comes, the legs will be weak, and it will be a big hair.

It wasn't until the fourth watch was over that Qian Zheng asked Xiangling to call Qian Yuan up to freshen up.

"Didn't sleep well?" Qian Yuan glanced at the table and saw that it was all dry food, not to mention soy milk and tofu brain, not even a bowl of porridge, so he could only pick up a fritter and let Xiangling peel two rice dumplings.

Xu Wei, who faintly looked like he was wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, was a little listless, "You snore too loudly, you can't sleep......

This reason is ...... The area of Suiyuan is not small, Qian Yuan lives in the main house, Xu Wei lives in the guest room, at least fifty steps away.

"Jujube dumplings...... Don't, change to a meat dumpling. Qian Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to Xu Wei, swallowed the fritters in three or two bites, and simply did it himself.

Xu Wei took the jujube dumplings and dipped them in some sugar, Qian Yuan sighed, turned his head and didn't want to look at it...... There are still people in the world who eat sweet zongzi!

"Meow meow."

Xiangling and Keqing were very busy today, and Xiao Hei, who was left out in the cold, finally came to spoil Qian Yuan, jumped onto the stool, grabbed Qian Yuan's clothes and jumped on the table, which scared Xu Wei a lot.

"It's fine." Qian Yuan shook his head at Keqing, eating meat dumplings with chopsticks in one hand, and gently scratching Xiao Hei's chin with the other, "I remember that before the township test, Xiao Hei was also with me." ”

"That's a good sign." Since yesterday, Lu's auspicious words have been on his lips.

Qian Yuan smiled, and he didn't know if Xiao Hei was a domestic cat or a wild cat...... But it always brings good luck, remember the first time we met, if it weren't for Xiao Hei, maybe the wouldn't have woken up.

"Young master, the Zhejiang Guild Hall is here." Yang Wen walked over quickly, "The pastries and zongzi are all loaded." ”

Qian Yuan dropped the chopsticks, took the wet towel to wipe his mouth, opened his arms, and Xiangling and Keqing were busy putting on a scarf for him and covering him with a coat...... is somewhat similar to the trench coat of later generations, and it looks more and more erect.

Striding out of Suiyuan, more than a dozen candidates in the outer courtyard carrying examination baskets and even carrying boxes were waiting, most of them were Shaoxing scholars, who had often mixed in Suiyuan for several months, and had already made an appointment to enter the examination room together.

Zhu Dashou arched his hand and said: "Zhancai, thank you." ”

"Thanks for what?" Xu Wei is still the same old-fashioned, "His restaurant is making money every day, and he buys some pastries and cooked food for his friends, shouldn't it?" ”

"Brother Wen's words are wrong." Chen Younian and Xu Wei are very familiar with each other, and retorted: "It's one thing to show your talent and be generous, but it's another thing to think so thoughtfully and share it without hesitation." ”

"Alright, alright." Qian Yuan scolded with a smile: "If you can't use the coal stove, bring more good charcoal, it's not enough for me to have preparations here." ”

"You must be careful when using the coal stove, don't recruit Zhu Rong."

"Oil paper, candles, water bottles, oil umbrellas, these necessities, everyone thinks about it, do they have all the necessities."

"If you don't get up and haven't eaten enough, eat some more here, don't worry, the carriage is set, it's in time."

Among these people, Qian Yuan is only older than Xian Xuan, and his qualifications are not deep, he is famous all over the world for Xu Wei, Chen Younian and Zhu Dashou are all children of official eunuchs, and the older ones such as Wu Dui are thirty-one years old.

But there is no doubt that Qian Yuan has absolute appeal, and as soon as a few words came out, everyone rechecked the exam preparation equipment.

As a result, two of them didn't have extra candles, one forgot to bring oiled paper, and even one didn't even bring ink.

Qian Yuan didn't care, in his previous life, he chatted with his brothers in the traffic police team, and they could meet candidates who forgot to bring their admission tickets in the college entrance examination every year.

"I still remember the first day of the Lunar New Year, rubbing hemp all day long, and there was no beard, and Brother Yu Chen's face still did not change......" Qian Yuan smiled and stuffed a piece of emblem ink over.

"The galloping horse is facing the wind and destroying the tree, and it is still safe, and the exhibition has this ability, and the foolish brother can't do it." Tao Dalin took the ink with a wry smile, and knew that it was a good ink when he touched it, so he didn't refuse, but only arched his hand.

Tao Dalin left a deep impression on Qian Yuan, he didn't know this name in his previous life, but this person was the first to leave the mahjong table, and he began to concentrate on preparing for the exam on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

In fact, the Hui Ji Tao family can be compared with the Yuyao Sun family, in history Tao Dalin himself is the leader of this subject, his grandfather Tao Hui is Zhejiang Xie Yuan, Hongzhi period Jinshi, official to the governor of Guangzhou.

Although Tao Dalin's father is only a man, his brother Tao Chengxue is a scholar in the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, and the official is still the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the steward over there led the servants to carry a few pots of freshly baked tea eggs over, and put them in small bags and distributed them one by one, which was for them to eat before entering the examination room, and if they were unlucky, they would have to wait until noon to enter.

After everything was ready, the group said goodbye to Qian Zheng, who was sent out of the house, got into the carriage and went straight to the tribute courtyard.

It is inevitable that the capital is much stronger in terms of organization than the local level, after all, the capital can mobilize much more resources.

This time, Qian Yuan was lucky, the first in line was the Shandong candidates, followed by the Shaanxi candidates, and then the Nanzhili.

Nanzhili naturally has the most candidates, after all, there are eighteen prefectures, and more than half of them are literati, among which Qian Yuan is naturally the most conspicuous, of course, not because he is Qian Yuan, but because of the big box he is carrying, which is too attention-grabbing.

Moving forward step by step, Qian Yuan couldn't help but complain when he saw Pan Yunduan in front of him: "Special mother, what a cow!" ”

Pan Yunduan's box is not big, but he is actually carrying a pot in his hand...... Qian Yuan is very familiar with it, it is a copper pot produced in Suiyuan, which is specially used to eat hot pot!

This guy actually wants to eat hot pot in the Gongyuan!?

The prosecutor was obviously also suppressed, and looked at the copper pot back and forth several times, and found out what raw cabbage, tofu, egg dumplings, beef and mutton were in Pan Yunduan's box...... Qian Yuan, who was not far away, also saw a hairy belly with sharp eyes.

Pan Yunduan explained with a smile, he doesn't care, unlike his father Pan En, who is obsessed with his career, he is a person who is at ease with his encounters and pays attention to enjoyment, otherwise he would not have been able to become a master early, and it took more than 20 years to build the Lingering Garden.

It may be that Pan Yunduan Zhuyu is in front, and Qian Yuan basically entered the scene without any trouble, of course, before that, he had to be personally searched by the soldiers.

Three days ago, he knew the number of the examination room, Qian Yuan successfully found the number room, lit a candle and carefully checked it.

Tsk, this time the luck is not as good as when the township test, there are no less than three cracks on the wall, the dust on the ground can step on the footprints, the cobwebs are dense on the roof, and I don't know if it will leak when it rains.

Qian Yuan sighed, and could only comfort himself in his heart, fortunately, he was governing "Spring and Autumn", not "Shangshu", at least a brick house.

I had no choice, so I went to grab the water first, cleaned up, plugged the cracks in the wall with oiled paper, and then beat up the special oil umbrella to support the ceiling, and the exam papers came down after I was busy.

Qian Yuan was not busy answering the questionnaire, first lit the coal stove, boiled some hot water to warm his body, and then put the futon on the number board, and carried the box in as a table.

After the tempering of the township test, Qian Yuan's series of steps were orderly...... The soldiers outside are all wondering in their hearts, they don't look very old, how can they be so experienced?

Today, the entire city of Beijing has been waking up since midnight, and the Xu Mansion is no exception, although the next generation of the Xu family, the next generation, let alone lifting people, does not even have a showman.

Xiao Qi looked at Qingwen angrily and funny, kneeling on the futon reverently, holding the lit incense in both hands, and chanting words in his mouth.

Qingwen and Raider were all favored by Xiao Qi, for them, Miss married a good person, and they had a good life, which is also one of the reasons why they are willing to be trusted by Xiao Qi.

After all, it is also kind, Xiao Qi didn't say anything, and went out for a run according to the habit, which is also one of her willingness to be looked down upon coldly in Xu Mansion......

When she ran around and passed by the small building, she saw Xu Can also kneeling there reverently, chanting words in her mouth.

Xiao Qi blinked, this posture ...... In my previous life, I saw it when I went to South Korea to study as an exchange student.

Xiao Qi doesn't have a good impression of Xu Can, she can often feel the other party's superiority in the exchanges, but she doesn't have any bad feelings.

For that marriage, Xiao Qi can only say sorry, this is the same as the workplace competition in the previous life, you used disgraceful means to try to benefit, then you should accept it if you fail.
