Chapter 863

Soon they arrived at the gate of Hu Guogong's mansion, and they saw that there was a huge square at the gate of the mansion, and outside, there were soldiers holding their hands.

"Have you been here?" Yu Xianrong looked at them and asked.

"I've been here, I wanted to visit the day before yesterday, but they said that Hu Guogong was not in the house!" Li Linyuan turned his head to look at Yu Xianrong and asked.

"Well, Hu Guogong is very busy, and now he holds a lot of positions, don't talk about us, even those officials want to see Hu Guogong, it's difficult, let's go!" Yu Xianrong smiled, and as he spoke, he took the lead and walked to the Qin Mansion, and when they arrived at the side door of the Qin Mansion, they knocked on the door, and immediately opened the door inside.

"We were invited by Hu Guogong to come to visit, and please let me know!" Yu Xianrong saw that the door was open inside, and immediately said.

"Oh, it's a student from Licheng County, right?" The reply inside asked with a smile.

"Yes!" Yu Xianrong smiled and nodded, and at the same time took out his own proof, and the same was true for the others,

The porter looked at it carefully, and after making sure that there was no problem, he said to them: "Wait a minute, the master has not come back yet, we still have to inform Madame of this matter, Madame also welcomes you to come over, and ordered it early in the morning, please wait a moment!" ”

The porter quickly trotted to the backyard,

And Li Lixian is settling accounts in the room, there are too many properties in the family, and settling accounts is also a troublesome thing, but this matter can only be done by her, she is the person in charge.

"Madam, the students of Licheng County have arrived!" The family arrived in the living room of Li Lixian's courtyard and reported to Li Lixian.

"Oh, please, quick! Invite them to the front yard living room, and I'll be right over! Li Lixian said to the housekeeper, the housekeeper quickly went out and went to report, and Li Lixian also cleaned up the things in her hands, and the maid also found a coat and cloak for Li Lixian to help put them on.

"Has the good way returned?" Li Lixian stood there and asked the maids to dress herself, and then asked.

"Not yet, but it's almost time!" A maid next to her spoke.

"Okay, I'll be back later, let him come to the front yard." Li Lixian nodded, and after getting dressed, she went to the front yard, and Li Linyuan and they were also led by Jia Ding to the living room, and the housekeeper who was busy in the living room was also very happy to see them coming.

"A few sons, please inside, the master has not been on duty yet, and the second master has not left school, Mrs. will definitely come over soon!" The butler greeted them warmly and invited them to sit down in the living room in the front yard.

"Come, please sit down, serve tea and snacks!" As the butler spoke, he began to beckon the maids to serve tea. The maids began to bring tea and snacks, and they also stood up and gave up their hands, and then they sat there and looked at the living room, which was very large, and it was also very gorgeous, and it was also warm, it was so cold outside, and it was so warm inside.

"Madame is here!" The housekeeper saw Li Lixian coming in, and immediately saluted Li Lixian and said. Yu Xianrong and the others also stood up, saluted Li Lixian and said, "I've seen the master's mother!" ”

"Well, it's all here, the lord was still talking to you last night, come here, sit down, come and treat it as a homecoming, the capital, this is your home!" Li Lixian smiled and beckoned them to sit down, and the housekeepers and maids who came over also stood behind Li Lixian.

"Sit down, don't be restrained, the old man is also from Licheng, the old lady is too, the old lady still grew up in Licheng, by the way, there are several masters in the family, they all grew up in Licheng, today the time is in a hurry, I didn't have time to inform them, you can also see it then, our family, also from Licheng!" Li Lixian smiled and greeted them.

"Yes, there is still a legend of the old lady in Licheng, many people say that the old lady is righteous, and I don't know how many people I have helped." Li Linyuan stood up and arched his hand and said.

"Sit down and say, sit down and say, drink some tea, and snacks and fruits, these fruits are your own in the house, and the preserved fruits are also made in your own house, and the dim sum is too, Qinfu dim sum shop knows, right? It's from the house, you can eat it as you like! Li Lixian beckoned them and said,

And at this time, Qin Shandao also came back and walked quickly to the front yard.

"Madam, the second master is back!" A family member came in and reported to Li Lixian.

"Good!" Li Lixian nodded with a smile, and after a while, Qin Shandao came in.

"I've seen my sister-in-law!" After Qin Shandao came in, he first saluted Li Lixian, and then saluted those students and said, "I've seen all the brothers!" ”

"I've seen Grandpa Jun!" They also hurriedly returned the salute and said.

"Come, sit down, Qin Shandao, Licheng County Prince, the fief is also on the Licheng side, I learned that you came here today, and I came back to see you, you are all scholars, but you have something to talk about!" Li Lixian said with a smile.

"Yes, I didn't expect that so many people from my hometown came to the capital to take the exam this time, if there is any difficulty, you must remember to say that my eldest brother and I also hope that our hometown can produce some talents, which can also benefit our hometown!" Qin Shandao nodded, sat down, took the teacup handed over by the maid, and said with a smile.

"Yes, this time we are also here for the first time, on the way here, the county magistrate also told us, saying that if there is any difficulty, come to Hu Guogong, and say that Hu Guogong will definitely help, Hu Guogong takes great care of the people in his hometown, the two reservoirs in his hometown, but the grandfather of Guo repaired it, and the people are also very grateful." Li Linyuan stood up and said to Qin Shandao.

"Well, the eldest brother also does what he can, and I also hope that the fathers and villagers in my hometown can live a good life, how is my hometown now? I went back to Licheng once two years ago. It wasn't very prosperous at the beginning. Qin Shandao continued to ask.

"It's still the same, the fields in my hometown are like this, and there is no other source of income, and there are still places in the capital that are directly connected, so there is naturally a big difference." Another student, Chen Xueren, also said.

"Well, the straight road will be repaired in the spring next year, and you also know that the eldest brother is the squire of the Ministry of Works, and it has been planned, and it will start after the beginning of spring, I hope that this will allow the people in my hometown to live a good life." Qin Shandao heard it, nodded and said.

"That's a good idea!" When they heard it, they were very excited, and on the way here, they also found that the city with a straight road was very prosperous, while the city without a straight road was far behind.

"The lord is back! Just got to the front yard! Then the butler came in and said,

And Li Lixian and they all stood up when they heard it, Li Lixian came to the door, and the other family maids were also busy, in fact, every time Qin Huaidao came back, those family members had to prepare things that Qin Huaidao might use, Qin Huaidao wanted to use them, and the things were about to be sent to Qin Huaidao.

"The master is back?" Li Lixian asked with a smile after seeing Qin Huaidao coming to the living room through the corridor.

"Well, I heard that those students are coming, but what about sitting inside?" Qin Huaidao nodded and asked with a smile.

"I just arrived, and Zendo is chatting with them!" Li Lixian said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go, get in!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said, raised his legs to the living room, and saw those young students, and they also saw Qin Huaidao, they found that Qin Huaidao was so young, and even looked younger than them.

"I've seen the master!" Those students immediately saluted Qin Huaidao and said, they are Qin Huaidao's food, so they naturally call the master.

"Well, here, sit down, sit down!" Qin Huaidao said very happily, then walked to the main seat, sat down, and the maid next to him immediately handed Qin Huaidao a hot handkerchief to wipe his hands, and then handed Qin Huaidao a cup of tea.

"It's cold on the way here, isn't it? But I have endured hardship. Qin Huaidao looked at them with a smile and asked.

"Will be the master, okay, walked to the straight side of the road, in fact, compared to other people, we suffer less, when we were on the road, we met the carriage of the freight station, they heard that we are from Licheng County, is the hometown of the lord, they carried us away, let us sit in a long carriage, did not walk for a long time, originally according to our plan, may need to take ten days on the road to walk it!" Where did Li Linyuan stand, he said to Qin Huaidao.

"Well, the cargo station was opened by me, they know that you are from Licheng, and they will definitely help, sit down and say, sit down and say, eat snacks, have you prepared the meal?" Qin Huaidao said and looked at the housekeeper in the distance.

"Back to the master, I'm already preparing, and I'll be fine soon!" The butler immediately said with a smile.

"Okay, have some snacks, this time to participate in the imperial examination, can you be sure? By the way, you three, how are you preparing? Qin Huaidao asked them as he spoke.

"Back to the master, it is estimated that it is very difficult, the disciple is dull, and there is still a gap compared to other students!" Yu Xianrong stood up and spoke.

"Did you bring homework?" Qin Huaidao looked at him and asked.

"Brought, I wrote a treatise on the law, which was requested by the gentleman, and another essay on the business of officials!" Yu Xianrong stood up and handed it to Qin Huaidao with both hands, and Li Zhiming and Yang Kai also stood there waiting with their homework.

"Well, have you ever investigated such a strategy? Or is it just looking for information in the newspapers? Qin Huaidao glanced at it and asked.

"Back to the master, I just looked for relevant information in the newspaper, and I originally wanted to investigate, but, that!"

"But what?"

"We won't let people in, and we can't investigate anything!" Yu Xianrong explained to Qin Huaidao, Li Linyuan and they looked at Qin Huaidao and them in surprise, they didn't expect that Qin Huaidao would check their homework as soon as they came back, and looking at Li Linyuan and them, they were so accustomed to it, it seemed that Qin Huaidao was like this before.
