Chapter 243: Parting

According to the laws of the Great Dragon, students from high schools in the state capital will rush to the capital to see the autumn examination of the coming year presided over by the Ministry of Officials, and if the examination is high school again, they will be eligible to participate in the palace examination presided over by the emperor himself, and have the opportunity to compete for the top three.

Ten years of hard study, isn't it just to be able to be named on the gold list one day, so many scholars will rush to Beijing a few months in advance, one is to visit the chief examiner of Qiu Yu in advance to seek advice, to put it bluntly, to become his protégé, can give himself some help, and second, it is inconvenient to travel in ancient times, in case of rainy weather delays the trip, and delays the test, then you have to wait for three years again.

Rushing to Beijing in advance can not only visit the main exam, but also set aside enough time in advance to review the poems and books, so as to cope with the big competition.

This has become an unwritten custom.

Since the founding of Dalong, they have all acted like this, so Liu Dashao is also facing the matter of being expelled from the mansion by the old man.

Liu Mingzhi reluctantly glanced at Qi Yun: "Old man, it will take a few months for the Spring Festival to try, is it too early to go to the capital now, and Yun'er is still pregnant, at this time I went to the Beijing Division, what if something happens!" ”

"It's not early, many people who take the test have already been on the road, and there are no less than twenty maids serving Yun Yatou in the house, what else are you worried about, go to the capital earlier to visit Lord Zhao and your uncle in advance, these all take time, delay for a long time, in case the weather is different and the test is delayed, you will have to wait for another three years."

"Why don't you let Yun'er go to Jingshi with me, I'm still not at ease."

"Confused, this is thousands of miles away from Beijing, the boat and car are tiring, Yun girl needs to recuperate the most now, I went to Beijing with you, what should I do if something goes wrong on the way?"

Although Qi Yun was reluctant, she still admonished her husband with a deep sense of righteousness: "Husband, what my father said is that the current body of the concubine is really not suitable to go to Beijing with you, and after you settle down over there, the concubine's body and bones will be stabilized and will go to you, let it go, it's just a few months." ”

The old man and his wife had spoken, and Liu Mingzhi had no choice, so he nodded depressedly: "Okay, I'll leave after I pack my bags." ”

Liu Zhian waved his hand, and a stack of silver tickets slapped directly on the table: "What is there to collect, this is 50,000 taels of silver tickets, just buy it directly if you lack anything." ”

The corners of Liu Mingzhi's mouth twitched, and he looked at a thick stack of silver tickets: "Old man, you are crazy, did I spend so many silver tickets?" ”

Liu Zhian said quietly: "This is a silver ticket for you to use, the capital is not better than Jiangnan, the powerful are rampant, rich businessmen gather, it is better to have silver to open the way than anything, although our Liu family also has a few branches in Beijing, but it is useful to bring a little emergency after all, be prepared, make more friends in Beijing, don't be stingy with silver, our Liu family is not short of these, as long as you can spread your hands and feet over there, it is worth how much money you spend, you can earn it again if you don't have money, and if you don't have connections, it's really gone." ”

"Then you won't need 50,000 taels of silver tickets, are you asking me to buy a house in the capital?"

"Emergency!"

"Okay, you are a local tyrant, you have the final say, as long as you don't feel distressed, I dare to take it if you give 500,000 taels."

"It's so beautiful that you can't control the Liu family one day, so don't think about 500,000 things. Also, Yun'er and Lei'er, these two children have been living in the house for a long time, and your uncle must miss them, so let's go back together, and there will be a companion on the way. ”

Liu Mingzhi laughed: "Sister Song Lei is gone, can that kid Mingli be happy?" ”

Qi Yun also smiled softly, obviously the little brother-in-law Liu Mingli's thoughts about Song Lei's girl have been clearly seen by several people.

Liu Zhian snorted twice: "What are you afraid of, you will come back if you leave, don't think about leaving again when you come back." ”

"Now you have begun to calculate other people's daughters, aren't you afraid that Uncle Song will fight hard with you? A relative walked his daughter in. ”

"He dared, he drank flowers in the Qinhuai River back then....... It's useless to talk less, if the two children really fall in love, Song Yu can only watch it. Obviously, with Qi Yun present, Liu Zhian couldn't say something, so he could only cover up the past vaguely.

Liu Mingzhi sighed melancholy, and finally understood why the predecessor died on the woman's belly, all of them are inherited, and the old man was not a peaceful person when he was young.

"Old man, do you have anything else to explain?"

"These days, you have made a lot of mirrors, bring dozens of dollars, sometimes it is more cost-effective to send these things than to send silver, and you don't fall into the handle of bribery, as long as you catch the hearts of those noble ladies in Jingshi, the wind blows by the bedside, it is more useful than anything, this does not need to be taught by the old man, right?"

"I understand, I understand."

"Get out, you husband and wife should also talk about themselves, and the old man won't delay."

Outside the gate of Liufu, three luxurious carriages slowly moved and rushed towards the north.

"Husband, you must be careful when you arrive in Beijing, the water there is too deep, and you must think twice when you act."

"Don't worry, lady, as long as others don't mess with me, you don't know my personality yet, docile like a cat."

"Hmph, anyway, if you dare to go to those fireworks places again, the concubine can't spare you."

"Don't go, resolutely don't go."

Qi Yun quietly stuck to Liu Mingzhi's ear: "Also, how did you hide it at the beginning, you have to hide it when you go to Beijing, if you dare to provoke those ladies and butterflies, the concubine will let you take ginseng as a meal every day." ”

Snorted embarrassedly twice, Liu Mingzhi was a little helpless, why is this lady more manged than herself: "Where is Ying'er, don't talk nonsense." ”

The carriage staggered out of the city gate and gradually stopped, Qi Yun threw herself into her husband's arms, and snuggled tightly on her husband's chest: "Husband, Yun'er can't bear you." ”

"Good, it won't be long before you see you, obedient."

Mrs. Liu was helped by her subordinates and walked over: "Zhi'er, going out is not as good as being at home, you have to take care of your body." ”

"Mother, don't worry, you also have to pay more attention to your body."

Mrs. Liu couldn't stand the pain of parting, and returned to her carriage with ruddy eyes.

"Bastard boy, remember to reply to a letter when you arrive in Jingshi, so that we can feel at ease."

"Don't worry, old man."

"Big brother, I can't bear you."

Pinching Liu Mingli's face, Liu Mingzhi chuckled and said, "I can't bear the eldest brother or your sister Lei." ”

"Big brother, what are you talking nonsense?" Liu Mingli's words dodged.

"Okay, who doesn't know what you're thinking."

Liu Mingli was speechless, and led the group to the carriage of the Song brothers and sisters.

"This bastard boy is a lover."

"Big brother, Xuan'er will miss you."

"Xuan'er is the most well-behaved, and the eldest brother will miss you."

Liu Xuan nodded fiercely, and also got into Mrs. Liu's carriage.

"Mingzhi!"

"Father-in-law, the boy is not good, but he has his father-in-law to send him off."

"In-laws."

"Daddy."

Qi Run looked at Liu Mingzhi with satisfaction: "When you arrive in Beijing, think twice about everything, don't act recklessly, this is the old man's letter, if you get into trouble, go to the address on the letter, and he will help you mediate." ”

"Thank you, father-in-law." Liu Mingzhi was very moved in his heart, Qi Run was already thinking about being able to do this.

"Be polite to me, you are also half of my son, everything I should do, don't live up to the high expectations of your in-laws and old husband who came to you."

"Kid got it."

"There's one more thing that might bother you."

"Father-in-law, please speak."

"Ya'er."

Qi Ya walked out in a bright red skirt and watched everyone salute gently.

"Sister, why are you here?"

"Mingzhi, Ya'er is going to Jingshi for a trip, and the old man is not at ease, it just so happens that you are walking, you should take care of it more on the way."

"Father-in-law, don't worry, my sister's matter will not dare to shirk." It's just that Liu Mingzhi's expression was a little unnatural, and he didn't dare to look at Qi Ya's face.

"It's getting late, let's get there early."

"Dad, father-in-law, take care."

"Have a nice trip."

"Be careful on the road."

Liu Mingzhi turned over his sweat and blood BMW stroked the horse's mane: "Fengxing, good guy, hard work." ”

Feng Xing gently raised the horse's hooves and screamed a few times.

"River, willow pine, hurry."

The group gradually disappeared on the official road of Jinling City.

"Appeal ............."

Liu Mingzhi looked at Liu Zhi'an who stopped in front of him curiously: "Old man, why did you keep up." ”

"Follow me."

Liu Mingzhi turned the horse: "What's wrong?" So mysterious? ”

"Child, remember the words of the father, the premise of being loyal to the monarch and serving the country is to preserve the vested interests of my Liu family, if it is a dilemma, the Liu family is the mainstay, you must remember, drive!"

Looking at Liu Zhi'an's disappearance, Liu Mingzhi calmly came out, and his eyes flashed with inexplicable meaning.

"Jianghe, willow pine, hurry up, and strive to get to the next place to settle down before dark."

"Yes!"

Qi Ya lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the fleeting scenery outside, quietly distracted.

Mouran Qiya was stunned for a moment, looking at Liu Mingzhi's galloping back and being a little confused: "I seem to have seen this back somewhere!" ”
