"Mr. Xingzhi, the village will rely on you during this time."

Unknowingly, the time has reached the twenty-ninth day of the first month, and the county test is imminent, Liu Ximing took dozens of people to prepare to go to Fucheng to live temporarily.

At this time, after he instructed Su Jin and the others, he instructed Mu Jingnan, Li Jingsi and the others: "During my absence, you must do a good job in the training of recruits, and when I come back, we will be upgraded to the Longxiang Battalion, if there are any good seedlings here, you have to keep an eye on me." ”

"Second brother, don't worry, we will all do these things."

Mu Jingnan immediately patted his chest and made a package ticket, Liu Ximing smiled and said no more, and took Zhou Liangcai, Chen Yiding, Dou Yuquan and others to board the Tongji and go down the river towards Shunqing Mansion City.

In order to facilitate Yu Yongkai and others to settle in the city, the duty room specially bought a big mansion in Fucheng, which happened to be for Liu Ximing and others to live temporarily.

Thinking that he had asked Liu Jianhou about the county test last time, Liu Ximing had just settled down, and he was ready to visit non-stop.

"Hehe, Liu Gongzi, Lord Liu is taking people to inspect Baoning Mansion these days, I'm afraid you won't be able to see it today."

Liu Ximing led people to the inspection institute in a hurry, who knew that he was stopped by the doorman, fortunately, he was generous last time, and this door also recognized him as the person who was brought in by Liu Xuan, so he replied with a smile at this time.

"Do you know when Jiori will return?" , Liu Ximing's face was full of depression, and he handed over a piece of silver and two taels of silver.

"Thank you Liu Gongzi for rewarding, I don't know much about the small ones on this specific day, or Liu Gongzi will leave a place, and Lord Liu will report to you as soon as he comes back."

This man accepted Liu Ximing's silver, and suddenly became more enthusiastic, and rushed to start Liu Ximing.

Hehe, sure enough, there is still money that can make ghosts grind, Liu Ximing's mood calmed down a little, and told this door to report if there was news, turn around and take someone to Xie Chengzhou's house to visit and go back to study behind closed doors.

On the third day of February, Fucheng.

"Xi Ming, it's time to get up, we have to rush to the Gongyuan."

Chen Yiding didn't fall asleep last night excitedly, as if he wanted to refer to it himself, and woke up Liu Ximing and the others in a hurry early in the morning.

Looking at his appearance, Liu Ximing was a little suspicious that he had taken stimulants, why was he so excited.

"Uncle, it's only time, we are not far from the Tribute Courtyard here, so there is no need to be in such a hurry." , Liu Ximing put on his clothes with sleepy eyes and ignorance, he was not as excited as Chen Yiding, there was space and spiritual water to base him, and he slept soundly this night.

"Oh, what are you sleeping in this kind of critical moment, in previous years, the Gongyuan was already full of people at this time, if we go late, there will be no good position to go back and enter the venue, Tianhua, you go and help Erlang clean up."

Chen Yiding had a burning expression on his face, and without saying anything, he pushed his eldest son Chen Tianhua into Liu Xi's room, urging the two of them to clean up quickly.

After a while, the people in the entire courtyard woke up, and the team of Liujiacun to go to the county test this time was quite large, in addition to Liu Ximing, there were also Dou Yuquan, Xu Wei, Chen Tianhua, Chen Tianyong and other four people.

Among them, Chen Tianhua is Chen Yiding's eldest son, and Chen Tianyong is Chen Yining's eldest son.

"Wait, one bottle of fairy water per person, drink it now."

Liu Ximing couldn't withstand the enthusiasm of these people, so he could only quickly pack up and set off together, and before leaving, he took out six bottles of spiritual water from the space for everyone to drink.

Sure enough, as Chen Yiding said, when the six of them walked to the gate of the Gongyuan accompanied by Li Biao and others, there were already many students wearing Confucian scarves standing here, and the officials of the county government were also squatting at the gate of the Gongyuan with torches early, probably because Zhang Gaoxuan, the county magistrate, had not yet arrived, and the gate of the Gongyuan was still closed.

At this time, a few sedan chairs came over leisurely around the crowd, and Liu Ximing's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly saw the people coming down from the sedan chair.

"Brother Wenle, we're here."

"Hahaha, Lao Liu, you came earlier than me."

The person who came was Xie Wenle, and before Liu Ximing could answer, Xie Chunxi's crisp voice came from the side.

"Brother Shi, little sister wishes you the title of the gold list as soon as possible."

Liu Ximing turned his head to look, Xie Chunxi's eyes smiled like a crescent moon, and he walked down from the sedan chair next to him briskly.

"Hahaha, thanks to the good words of the virtuous sister, the foolish brother will do his best."

"Hehe, the toad wants to eat swan meat, it's really wishful thinking."

"Why are you again, are you annoying, the dog is nosy with a mouse, it is better to play more cheat sheets with this kung fu, lest you are not as good as others, and you can't afford to lose when the time comes." , Xu Wei saw that it was Lu Zhenghao, and couldn't help but sneer.

Lu Zhenghao was walking towards this side like a group of stars holding the moon, but he didn't expect Liu Ximing to speak, the kid next to him was so bold, and he was a little angry all of a sudden, "What kind of thing are you, I didn't expect this poor sour to have a follower." ”

Liu Ximing was also a little angry all of a sudden, this little bastard is so cheap every time he appears, he really wants to tear his mouth apart, but now he can only fight with him.

"Of course, a character like Lu Gongzi doesn't take others seriously, but insulting a student of the same year, presumably his parents and officials won't care about it, and if I say a word to Zhang Zhixian in front of everyone later, what do you say he will do?"

"Then it's ......", Lu Jiahong was instigated by Liu Ximing's words, and wanted to make a big deal on the spot, but Lu San, who followed, said "Young Master is cautious", his face changed, and he finally couldn't help but say it.

Seeing this, Liu Ximing said that it was a pity, thinking that he had already asked Liu Jianhou for help, so he continued to take a step forward at this time, and smiled at Lu Jiahong: "Lu Gongzi said a few years ago that he would remove me from the county examination, why didn't there be any movement?" ”

"You are a dog, what if you get through the relationship, I just let go of the department, and I want to knock you dog off the horse."

As soon as he mentioned this, Lu Jiahong finally couldn't help it, and when he opened his mouth, he scolded.

Liu Ximing looked at his posture and knew that Liu Jianhou should have done the job.

"Hey, hey, you're ......"

"Brother Liu, don't worry, with me waiting for you again, I will naturally help you support you, I want to see who dares to risk the world and blatantly cheat!"

Liu Ximing didn't turn back to him, Du Liangji, Zhao Xiangyang and Li De, who helped him testify last time, walked over to this side, and it was Du Liangji from Nanchong County who spoke, and Zhao Xiangyang winked at Liu Ximing a few times.

Liu Ximing rolled his eyes, and immediately laughed and said to these people: "Hahaha, Brother Du, Brother Zhao, Brother Li, thank you three for speaking up, this Lu Gongzi is so majestic, little brother, I am a little frightened." ”

Du Liangji looked at Lu Jiahong with a disgusted expression, "I originally thought that Lu Gongzi, as the son of an official eunuch, should also know how to be polite, righteous and honest, but how do you know that you have already made a gambling contract, and the competition is all based on talent, why are you still clamoring to use your own forces, it really makes me and others shameful." ”

"You, you ......", Lu Jiahong was furious by Du Liangji's contemptuous eyes, and he was about to get angry on the spot, but at this time, a shout came from the alley of the Gongyuan and knocked his words back into his stomach.

"The county magistrate has arrived, and all beings have avoided it!"

The two teams of officials carried water and fire sticks to protect a sedan chair and trotted all the way, and the soldiers blocking the door dodged one after another, letting the sedan chair of Zhang Gaoxuan of the county magistrate walk to the gate of the Gongyuan.

After a pause, Zhang Gaoxuan walked out of the sedan chair with his head bowed in front of his official uniform, he glanced back at the scholars who came to take the exam, and said slowly to the official at the door: "Prepare to let the scholars enter." ”

"Yes, sir", the officials at the door immediately bowed their heads.

As soon as Zhang Gaoxuan stepped into the door, one of the servants immediately stood up and shouted to the scholar at the door: "The Yihai Science Examination in Nanchong County starts now, and all the students will prepare the documents for the ceremony room and enter in turn. ”

Lu Jiahong's face had already turned from anger to joy when he saw Zhang Gaoxuan, and now when he heard this shout, he snorted at Liu Ximing and turned around and left, "You guys wait and see, surnamed Liu, you have to prepare the banquet in Taibai Building." ”

"Hahaha", Liu Ximing inevitably hesitated a little when he heard him continue to say this, but now that he loses or loses, he still laughs and laughs, "Don't worry, Master Lu, don't forget it yourself." ”

"Third brother, brother Shi, you have to go all out."

Xie Chunxi saw that Xie Wenle, Liu Ximing and others also followed the crowd to the gate of the tribute courtyard, walked back to the sedan chair in a few steps, turned around and waved his arms to say goodbye to them.
