On the second day of October, it is advisable to meet relatives and friends, crowns, bathe, make beds, and marry.

Today is the day when Chen Ting rests, Lu Jing, Ge Yin and Chen Ting met a few days ago, so when Shen Shi, Lu Jing and Ge Yin gathered together at Chen Ting's mansion.

In February of the fifth year of Yuan Yong, Chen Ting was appreciated by Chen Ju, the left waiter of the deputy chief examination department at that time, and was admitted to the second class in the palace examination.

In August this year, Chen Ting passed the assessment of the Hanlin Academy and continued to stay in the Hanlin Academy, serving as a reviewer of the Hanlin Academy from the seventh grade.

In June of the previous year, Chen Ting received the widowed mother who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River to be supported in the capital, and in September of the same year, he married Chen Ju's third daughter.

"Brother Yan, congratulations, congratulations, when you got married, I was in filial piety, and it was inconvenient to come, so don't blame me!" Lu Jing said with a smile.

When Chen Ting got married, he was keeping filial piety in Gusu, and it was inconvenient to congratulate him, but he asked someone to send a congratulatory gift afterwards.

"Huai Jin is polite, if Yan Zhi didn't have two friends to help him when he was young, he wouldn't be where he is today, today our three brothers have a rare get-together, and we have to get drunk and rest when we say anything!" Chen Ting said with emotion, if it weren't for Lu Jing and Ge Yin who often funded him back then, how could he be where he is today.

"Brother Yan said this, and when I was in Qinglin Academy, you took a lot of care of me!" Ge Yin said with a smile, the three of them entered the academy almost at the same time, and their temperaments were extremely similar, so their friendship was much deeper than that of other classmates.

When Lu Jing, Chen Ting and Ge Yin met again, they couldn't help but think of the scene when they were studying at Qinglin Academy, and they all showed a knowing smile on their faces.

"Hehe, it's all mine, I shouldn't start this, with our relationship, don't say this kind of polite words!" Lu Jing said with a smile.

"Huai Jin is right, Brother Yan, in the past, I only exchanged letters with you, but today it is rare to meet, you have to tell us about your situation in Beijing in the past few years!" Ge Yin also said.

"Especially the situation in Jingzhong, you have to talk to us about it." Lu Jing added.

"Brother Wen Jing has been to the capital many times, but I came out of your place, and now I am still unfamiliar with life in Beijing."

"It's okay, then I'll do a little bit of the friendship of the landlord, haha!" Chen Ting said with a smile.

Then he briefly described his affairs over the years, as well as the affairs in Beijing and the officials in the court, to Lu Jing and the others.

Finally, talking about the Hanlin Academy where he worked, Chen Ting couldn't help but sigh: "Entering the Hanlin Academy is to boil the qualifications, if someone above remembers you, it is good to arrange some errands and experience, if no one takes care of you, you can only stay in the Hanlin Academy, sort out the historical manuscripts, and release a piece of paper every ten years." ”

Chen Ting thought that he would have a good start when he was admitted to the Jinshi and entered the Hanlin Academy, but he never thought that he had been wasting time for the past two years, and he knew that officialdom was difficult.

Although it is enviable to enter the Hanlin Academy, how many people stand out, many people have stayed in the Hanlin Academy for a lifetime, and in the end they are still an old Hanlin, and in the end, at most, they will be released for one term, and they will return to their hometowns.

"With Brother Yan's talent, no matter where he is, he will shine!" Ge Yin was born in a family of eunuchs, so he naturally knew the doorway, so he comforted: "What's more, Brother Yan is now also taken care of by Lord Chen." ”

"Yes, Brother Yan has now been promoted to review, and with Lord Chen's support, the day when I want to fly will not be far away!" Lu Jing also comforted that the imperial examination is a step by step, and the officialdom is not the same, if you want to live well, you have to fight step by step.

Chen Ting felt the concern of the two friends, and was moved in his heart, and said with a smile: "Then borrow the auspicious words of the two brothers, by the way, I heard my colleagues from the Hanlin Academy privately say that the main examination for next year's spring festival seems to be a cabinet scholar Xu University!" ”

"Is that true?" Ge Yin hurriedly asked, he has been inquiring about the main examination of this subject these days, but he has only inquired and asked, and he has not received any accurate news.

"Although the Holy Lord has not officially decreed yet, it is already eight or nine years old." Chen Ting nodded.

"Does Huai Jin know about this?" Ge Yin asked, if you can know who the examiner is in advance, you can prepare early according to the preferences of the examiner.

"I've been busy cleaning up the yard these days, and I haven't gone to the teacher's place much, and when I went to the teacher's place a few days ago, I didn't hear the teacher talk about it, and I don't know about it." Lu Jing shook his head and said.

"Wen Jing is not in a hurry, in previous years, the winter moon determined the main exam, and this year must be the same." Chen Ting comforted.

"Wait until tomorrow I will go to my mentor to inquire, and if the news is accurate, I will inform Brother Wen Jing."

"Hehe, I'm too anxious!" Ge Yin laughed at himself, he has not been very confident since he fell off the list last year.

"If it's really Lord Xu, it's good, Lord Lin and Lord Xu are good friends, and they must take more care of Huai Jin."

Lu Jing shook his head and said: "The examination has always been strict, even if Lord Xu is the main examiner, he may not be partial to anyone, as for taking care of it or not, I don't care, as long as I can compete fairly." ”

He really hopes that Xu Jingnian will be the main examiner, mainly because Lin Ruhai has offended too many people this time, and if he encounters someone from hostile forces as the main exam, he will inevitably be suppressed.

"Huai Jin is right, Lord Xu is fair, I'm afraid there will be no partiality, if the two of you have time, you might as well go and visit Lord Yang of the Inspectorate." Chen Ting suggested.

Lu Jing and Ge Yin also knew that Yang Chen, the imperial history of the Inspectorate, would become the deputy chief examiner of next year's examination, and according to the usual practice, the main examiner of the Gyeonggi Township Examination would become the deputy chief examiner of the spring of the second year.

Ge Yin shook his head and said: "Lord Yang, as the imperial history of the Inspectorate, if you go to visit at this time, it will inevitably leave a flattering impression on Lord Yang, so let's wait for the main exam to be decided." ”

Lu Jing agreed: "Yes, there is not much point in walking around now, it is better to wait for the main and secondary exams to be decided, and then go to the meeting." ”

"That's fine, the two virtuous brothers can rest assured, the candidates who will take the main and deputy exams are generally proposed by the Hanlin Academy, and the emperor ruling, if there is news, I will notify the two of you!"

"Haha, if the relationship is good, there will be Brother Lao Yan!" Ge Yin smiled.

Then the three of them chatted about the old things, and Chen Ting asked, "Huai Jin, do you have a charter for your life's events?" ”

"Yes, you will be crowned next year, has the marriage ever been decided?" Ge Yin is also concerned, among the three of them, Chen Ting has already married, and he is also married, and now Lu Jing's marriage has not yet been settled.

"There is no charter, but my second uncle is helping me to arrange this matter, according to what I mean, I will wait until next year's spring festival will be over!" Lu Jing didn't want to talk about it, so he started talking about other topics.

The three of them talked freely until dusk, and then Chen Ting set up a banquet to entertain Lu Jing and Ge Yin.

While drinking, the three of them kept chatting, talking about some of the past events in Qinglin Academy, especially when it came to the businesses that Lu Jing was drumming up back then, they were all talking about it for a while, and the more they talked, the more they drank, the more they drank.

Until the night fell, Lu Jing and Ge Yinfang said goodbye and left from Chen Ting's house, and the three of them were a little drunk.

After Lu Jing was sent back to the house by Wu Ze and Lu Lian, he was helped into the room by Yinglian and Youxia.

Yinglian saw that Lu Jing was between being drunk and not drunk, and whether she was awake or not, her heart was worried, and she hurriedly boiled the sobering soup and served Lu Jing to drink.

After Lu Jing drank the decanting soup, Fang was a little sober, drank a few cups of tea, and felt much sober, so he asked Youxia to prepare hot water in the room, wanting to wash away the smell of wine.

After Youxia and Qingqiu prepared the hot water, they retreated, because Lu Jing had bathed in the past and never let people serve, and they did not stay to serve.

Yinglian saw that Lu Jing was half-drunk and half-awake, drunk and hazy, so she was a little uneasy, hesitated for a long time, and said in a low voice with a blushing face: "Master, let Yinglian serve you to wash!" ”

Lu Jing looked at Yinglian with drunken eyes, and saw that she was becoming more and more delicate and moving, especially now with a shy face and a dizzy appearance on her cheeks, like a flower waiting to be put down, which was pitiful, so she was a little emotional, so she agreed.

Yinglian saw Lu Jing nodding, she was a little nervous and a little happy, and after untying Lu Jing's clothes not very skillfully, she became a little shy.

Because Lu Jing gets up and down every day, she never lets people serve her, and she has been staying in the study, she has never been in such close contact with Lu Jing, and at this time she has to take off her underwear for Lu Jing, which makes her feel shy.

Yinglian's heart was pounding for a moment, she closed her eyes slightly at first, and only groped for Lu Jing's underwear by feeling, but after groping for a while, she only took off her top.

Lu Jing was touched by Yinglian's Qianqiansu hand, so he asked Yinglian to turn around, and he took off his underwear directly, turned around and sat in the bathtub.

After Yinglian heard the sound of Lu Jing entering the water, she turned her delicate body shyly, and saw Lu Jing closing her eyes in the bathtub to recuperate, so she began to carefully wipe Lu Jing's back, the water vapor steamed, making her pretty face more and more embarrassed, and her heart was like a deer colliding, and her hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.

After Yinglian wiped Lu Jing's back, she whispered, "Master, Yinglian will wipe your front!" ”

"Hmm!" Lu Jing replied with his eyes closed, he was already a little sober at this time, and this was the first time he had enjoyed such a service after coming to the Red Mansion World for so long.
