Pei Min watched Yan Gaoqing and Yuan Luqian go south, looking at the familiar scenes around him, and suddenly thought that he had sent the Gongsun sisters away here two months ago, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: But in two months, he actually sent away two pairs of his best confidants and friends, but it was really joys and sorrows and the world is impermanent.

After lifting his spirits, Pei Min turned around and went back to the city, his bags were ready last night, as long as he went to the government and the Dadu Governor's Mansion to get the certificate of the civil and military test, he could go back to his hometown to visit his mother. Thinking of his mother at home, Pei Min suddenly felt like an arrow.

First go to the Dadu Governor's Mansion to say goodbye to Xue Ne, and lead the military examination to prove that Xue Ne is not in the mansion, but he has already arranged it, and the steward of the mansion has prepared all the formalities, just waiting for him to come and pick it up in person.

Leaving the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Pei Min went to the government office to get the certificate of the literary examination.

For the tribute students who participated in the scientific expedition, the government officials also warmly received them. It is a great honor to be able to go to Beijing to take the exam instead of the state and county, and all the procedures are simple.

Especially Pei Min, as a solution, was personally received by Governor Shi of Youzhou.

Youzhou Governor Shi said enthusiastically: "We will leave for the capital to pay tribute on the 18th, will you go with us, or will you leave by yourself?" "This tribute student goes to Beijing to take the exam, and generally goes to Chang'an with the local convoy of tribute in Beijing, after all, the transportation was inconvenient in ancient times. Chang'an is a long way away, and it is inevitable that a single person will encounter some accidents on the road. The local prefectures and counties will offer local specialties to the emperor as tribute every New Year. In order to take care of the examiners, the imperial court specially advanced the time to pay the tribute, so that the examinees could enter Beijing with the tribute convoy and be taken care of along the way. Of course, you can also go by yourself, but most of them are the choice of the rich and noble, they have their own guards, and they are not constrained by their own decisions.

Pei Min calculated the time, it was the thirteenth, and the time was too tight, and said, "Let's go by myself later, I want to accompany my mother more at home." ”

Governor Youzhou Shi obviously knew Pei Min's swordsmanship and martial arts, and said with a smile: "Filial piety is commendable, don't delay your trip when you go by yourself." It's rare for me to have a talent who can be literate and martial arts in Youzhou, but don't ruin your future because of a moment of sloppiness. I've also read your exam papers, especially Moyi, the insights are refreshing, but there is a talent for Jinshi. This official also hopes that you can go to high school and win glory for our state and county. Alright, there you go,"

"Late students understand!"

Pei Min bid farewell to Governor Shi, went to Yuan's mansion to get his bags, and went to Huairou County non-stop.

The little chestnut hair also showed the characteristics of the Wuzhumuqin horse, running all the way, running for most of the day in one breath, until outside Huairou County, full of spirit. Thinking that in the past, it would take nearly two days to walk to study, and this good horse had shortened it by one and a half days, and I was very happy.

After more than three months, Huairou County gradually stepped out of the shadow of the Xi people's raids, and was full of vitality because of the advantages of the location.

When the villagers in the county saw Pei Min coming back, they all greeted him warmly, apparently not forgetting his life-saving kindness.

The enthusiasm of the villagers and elders is sincere, and Pei Min also takes the trouble to say hello one by one.

After three months, Pei Min once again walked on the stone path leading to his home, shouting from afar: "Mother, the child is back!" The voice was loud and full of neutrality, which shook the surrounding birds and pheasants, flapping their wings and flying high.

Pei's mother was sewing clothes in the room, and some time ago she was selected by the county to go to the Youzhou military camp to sew and mend damaged clothes for soldiers, and her exquisite craftsmanship was praised: after that, every once in a while, the barracks logistics officials would send a batch of torn clothes to Pei's mother to sew and mend. Compared with washing clothes for people, sewing and mending is much easier, and the price is very real, she put down the laundry work and specially sewed clothes for soldiers in the army.

Hearing Pei Min's call, his eyes were slightly red in an instant, and he almost stabbed his hand with excitement, hurriedly put down the things in his hand, ran out of the house, and saw Aiko leading a horse down the steps, his face was pale, and he stepped forward with his eyebrows raised, and grabbed Pei Min's ear with his hand and said, "Stinky boy, you also know to come back!" I thought you had forgotten about this home. ”

Pei Min didn't dodge, twisted his face and shouted, "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!" ”

Pei Mu's heart softened, and her hands loosened her strength, but she still looked angry. Pei Min is filial, and he used to go home every two months to visit, and he didn't stay for a long time, just one day, but it also reassured Pei's mother. As usual, not going home once for three months is something that has never happened before. Although Pei Min specially sent someone to spread the news that he had a heavy study and would come back later, she was still uneasy in her heart, and she did not relax until today.

Pei Min immediately smiled and said: "It's the child's fault, the child also has a hard time!" Tell my mother a good news, the child has been dismissed from high school, and as a tribute, he is eligible to participate in next year's Spring Festival. ”

Pei Mu was stunned when she heard this, her eyes lit up, and she let go of her hand and said, "Really? ”

"Is that fake?" Pei Min rubbed his ears that were already red, and took out the proof of his own unwinding from the horse bag that was talking about the little chestnut hair.

Pei Mu was a singer of the Pei family in her early years, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, naturally literate, looking at the certificate in her hand, her eyebrows fluttered happily, and tears couldn't help but roll down and said: "My son has a future, a future." After a pause, she said, "No...... her suspicious gaze fell on Pei Min and said, "Good and decent, what kind of tribute are you going to take the exam?" Didn't the Pei family disdain to participate in the imperial examination? Back then, she fell in love with Pei's father, who was the direct bloodline of Pei's family and was cultivated by the family since childhood. originally wanted to recommend him to the court as an official, but it was the affair with her that was exposed, so he was disqualified. Although he was not expelled from the Pei family, he also became an abandoned son of the Pei family and ignored it.

When Pei Min was a child, Pei's mother personally knelt down to beg the head of the Pei family in order for her son to have a good learning environment so that he could get ahead. The Pei family did not recognize Pei's mother, the daughter-in-law, and confirmed that Pei Min, the bloodline of the Pei family, allowed him to enter Yanyun Academy and be treated by the descendants of the Pei family.

In Pei's mother's opinion, Pei Min should have been directly recommended to be an official when he was old, and there was no need to take any imperial examinations.

Pei Min smiled: "Isn't it a child's mistake, he played abnormally in an assessment, lost to others, and didn't get the opportunity to go to Jishan School." It just so happened that the test was about to start, and I wanted to test my level, so I signed up for a name, and the result was a casual test. I just thought, instead of waiting for the Pei family's unreliable arrangement, it is better to take the exam by yourself, go directly to the Dragon Gate, and be able to meet the king and then pay homage to the marquis, and go down in history or something. "He's lying here, he doesn't want his mother to feel guilty, he doesn't want her to know that he lost his qualifications because of her.
