Looking at Xin Qiji's back and leaving, Ye Qing just watched silently, he didn't tell Xin Qiji the reason, nor did he ask a trace of doubt in his heart.

But since Xin Qiji suddenly appeared on King Xin's painting boat with Lu Zuqian, Zhu Xi and others.

So, is it really just because Xin Qiji admires Zhu Xi that he was brought over by Lu Zujian to see Zhu Xi?

Tang Si's retreat above the court is unchangeable, and then the situation in the court will fall into turmoil, at this time, Xin Qiji's sudden appearance in Chang'an, what will it have to do with it?

Xin Qiji has the style of a literati and the heroism of a military general, but he does not have the means and government of a so-called politician, so this is why he was dismissed from time to time and was used from time to time.

There are many people who admire him in the court, but there are only a few people who can appoint and dismiss him at will, that is, the struggle of these people above the court has made his career ups and downs, leaving a legendary life for future generations.

Therefore, Ye Qing can be sure that Xin Qiji came to Lin'an this time, and he is afraid that he will become a pawn in the hands of several bigwigs who are above the Lin'an court, can speak, and hold power.

Wei Guogong Shi Hao obviously wouldn't use him, otherwise he wouldn't have instructed Yin Sui to impeach him, and Han Cheng's family didn't seem to be someone who would use him, after all, when it came to influence and prestige in the army, Yu Yunwen was more suitable than Xin Qiji, not to mention that Han Cheng also had his son Han Yanxuan.

So the only one who can win over and use Xin Qiji's disease is the King of Xin on the upper floor of the painting boat, but what does King Xin want to do? Entering Dali Temple? Or do you want to enter the military department?

Ye Qing involuntarily looked up at the second floor of the painting boat, although he couldn't see or hear anything, Ye Qing suddenly felt that the reason why Zhu Xi and Lu Zuqian became the guests of King Xin was related to him?

Slowly walked along the side deck to the direction of the bow of the boat, while looking at the warblers singing and dancing on the lake, slowly passing by the painting boat, while thinking, is it possible for Zhu Xi and King Xin to use the Yuan Yu armillary sphere to be unhappy with themselves? So what will they do with themselves?

"Stand still...... Yes. ”

Ye Qing's first reaction when he heard the voice was to suddenly turn around, and before he could see who the figure behind him was, a hand had already stepped forward and grabbed the figure's neck, and the whole person suddenly arrived in front of the person.

Through the light that had just passed by, it was clear that it was Princess Xin who was hidden in the shadows.

Feeling the delicate and smooth skin of his palm, Ye Qing was stunned and muttered, "What...... How are you ......? ”

Frightened by Ye Qing's sudden move, Princess Xin, who was a little disgraced, watched Ye Qing's hand slowly withdraw from her neck, and then involuntarily moved back two steps, looked around with some vigilance, and then said to Ye Qing: "I...... Hongu ...... Hongu has something to tell you. ”

Seeing that Ye Qing also took a few steps back, and then was about to salute her, Princess Xin hurriedly waved her hand in a low voice in the shadows and said, "No need to salute, I'll just leave after saying a few words." ”

"Believe the princess, please speak." Ye Qing looked at the side of the boat and saw that there was no one on both sides, and then looked up at the back of the second floor of the painting boat.

"You...... Today in the Lonely Mountain Garden, I heard the queen tell the queen mother that the emperor plans to let you participate in this year's provincial examination, so I ...... I...... I'm here to tell you the good news. Princess Xin was a little nervous, she was lightly touched at the first meeting, and this time she was choked by the neck, which made her even more nervous about Ye Qing in her heart.

But even so, I don't know why, as soon as she saw Ye Qing tonight, she really wanted to tell Ye Qing in person the news that the Emperor had let Ye Qing participate in the provincial test.

Although she could choose to tell Ye Qing's wife who had not passed the door, or her sister-in-law, in the end, she still chose to tell Ye Qing herself.

"I'm taking the provincial exam? Are you kidding? Really? Ye Qing was startled, and also said in a low voice.

"It's true, you're going to take the provincial exam this year." Princess Xin nodded firmly and said.

Originally, I thought that after she said it, Ye Qing would be extremely excited, but obviously she miscalculated, Ye Qing's expression, in her opinion, was more like she told him not good news, but bad news.

"Then how did I not know? I took the provincial exam, and I still can't recognize all the words with my two brushes...... Ye Qing complained in front of Princess Xin.

But the way she complained, and the words she didn't know all the words, made Princess Xin laugh out loud.

Looking at Princess Xin, who was trembling with some flowers, Ye Qing didn't feel funny at all, and continued to ask, "Are you joking?" How could the Emperor let me ....... ”

"It's true, I didn't lie to you. Otherwise, why do you think King Xin appointed Zhu Xi as an examiner? Princess Xin winked at Ye Qing, looking like everything was in plain sight.

Ye Qing quietly looked at Princess Xin's somewhat nervous, poetic cheeks that looked like a nightshade that had just bloomed: "Then why do you want to tell me this?" Also, thank you for the reminder last time. ”

When Ye Qing talks to Princess Xin, she will unconsciously forget her identity as a courtier, and will always use you to talk to Zhong Qing with an equal attitude.

Zhong Qing didn't seem to care about Ye Qing's disrespect to her at all, she just shook her head at Ye Qing's gratitude, and then said: "There is no problem with your talent to participate in the township examination, if you want to enter the office, there is only one way to take the imperial examination, not to mention that you are too dangerous in the Imperial City Division, I have heard about the events on the day of the prince's wedding." It's better to take advantage of the decline of the Tang Xiang River to try your career. ”

Ye Qing snorted involuntarily, then shook his head to look at Princess Xin, stroked his chin with one hand, and asked strangely: "Princess Xin doesn't help her husband, but helps outsiders ......." ”

"Do you believe what I said, if you don't believe it, I can't help it, this is for your good, and it is also for Yan Chengcheng, I don't want to watch a woman become a widow before she passes the door, just like your sister-in-law." Princess Xin's face suddenly turned cold, and after speaking lightly, she turned around and left the shadows.

Looking at Princess Xin who was walking unhindered in the shadows, Ye Qing was sure that this painting boat was obviously very familiar with Princess Xin, otherwise, she would not have been able to walk so fast without seeing the road ahead.

Looking at the shadow passage after Princess Xin disappeared, and smelling the faint fragrance brought by Princess Xin that still remained on the tip of his nose, Ye Qing was a little dazed, and participated in the provincial test by himself? Is Zhao Gou crazy?

Ye Qing, who walked to the second floor of the painting boat again, looked at Zhu Xi and King Xin, who were smiling very heartily, obviously they had reached a consensus on the provincial test.

And Xin Qiji was drinking wine there alone, or occasionally taking the words thrown over by Lu Zujian.

After watching Ye Qing come over, after holding the wine glass and saying hello, he began to continue to focus on more cheerful music and slightly amazing dances.

Since sitting back in his position again, Ye Qing could feel Zhang Dadao behind King Xin from time to time, as well as Zhu Xi's gaze.

On the other side, Princess Xin, who left in a hurry because of Ye Qing's words, after returning to the room where Bai Chun and Yan Qingcheng were drinking tea, she unconsciously scolded herself in her heart: I forgot to tell him that Zhu Xi seemed to have discovered some loopholes in the Yuan You Armillary Instrument in the past few days.

After sitting down with Bai Chun and Yan Qingcheng again, the topic involuntarily shifted to Ye Qing's body, and Princess Xin had a picture of Ye Qing not believing her words from time to time in her heart, so she simply informed the two daughters of Ye Qing's provincial examination after the Yuan Festival.

Bai Chun and Yan Chengcheng's reactions, in the eyes of Princess Xin, were almost exactly the same as Ye Qing.

"That's it...... Just for him to take the provincial exam? Bai Chun and Yan Qingcheng looked at Princess Xin in shock, their expressions were not suspicious of Princess Xin's words, but they didn't believe that Ye Qing would participate in the provincial examination at all.

"You don't believe it either?" Princess Xin asked curiously.

"It's not that I don't believe in him, it's that I don't have faith in him." Bai Chun sighed, and after glancing at Yan Chengcheng, he said helplessly.

"Why?" Princess Xin was even more curious.

Bai Chun pointed to his temple, and then said helplessly: "He ...... here." ”

"Abnormal?" Princess Xin was surprised.

Yan Tingcheng burst out laughing, Princess Xin's face turned red suddenly, and when Bai Chun pointed to her temple, Princess Xin couldn't help but think of the moment when Ye Qing held her hand, so it was very natural to associate it together, and her heart was that Ye Qing was not in a normal mind, so she was so bold and light.

"He's not abnormal, he's ...... But this person is very strange, he doesn't know a lot of words, if he takes the township test, I'm afraid it's impossible. Yan Chengcheng did not leave a trace of affection for his future husband.

He ...... Is he really illiterate? Princess Xin was even more surprised, and said with some disbelief: "There are already several of his lyrics circulating in Lin'an City, and even Li Qingzhao praises him, plus the restoration of the Yuanyou armillary celestial image, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a celebrity among literati and artists, right?" How can you not read all the words? ”

"He lost his memory after the battle of Jiankang, and he ...... about the previous events In his words, he couldn't remember it all. So....... Bai Chun shook his head, recalling the situation when he first got along with Ye Qing, and muttered: "If he participates in the township test, I'm afraid he won't have any chance." ”

"Amnesia?" Princess Xin muttered and asked, "The person who can compose lyrics is actually an amnesiac person?" So what are we normal people? Might as well be an amnesiac person? ”

"I'm afraid he doesn't even know what to take the exam, and I doubt that he knows what the first sentence of the Six Classics is and how many words there are in each book." Yan Qingcheng looked at Princess Xin's thoughtful appearance and continued to mend the knife.

However, Princess Xin obviously didn't believe Yan Qingcheng's words very much, in her opinion, although Yan Tingcheng was Ye Qing's fiancée, if you talked about it, it should be Ye Qing's sister-in-law, right?

So when he looked at Bai Chun, Bai Chun showed an embarrassed smile and said: "The Six Classics have always been used by him to cushion pillows, I only saw that he had read a book, "Dream Creek Writings", but it was not more than three pages, and he fell asleep under the mulberry tree. ”
