Early the next morning.

Before dawn, the small door of the warm pavilion in the main bedroom of Mozhu Courtyard was pushed open, and a little girl with only two horns poked her head in, a pair of big eyes purring.

There was originally an interstitial screen in the bedroom, blocking the view in front of the door, but later Jia Cong felt that it was not transparent, so he withdrew.

So the little girl can see the scene in the house at a glance.

Outside a stepping bed, there is a small couch.

A master and a servant are sleeping peacefully......

The small couch is not shabby, and the couch is covered with duck down cushions, which is bright and luxurious and comfortable.

It is specially prepared for a decent big girl or a grandmother to accompany the bed.

However, generally speaking, few personal maids use this kind of couch, and they will sleep on the same couch with their own girls or young masters, which is used as a bed warmer, and it is also convenient to take care of, such as the assault in the Baoyu room......

It's just that Ping'er is thin-skinned, where is he willing to sleep in a bed, and in the end he will sleep on another bed.

Of course, there is also some intimacy that cannot be humanized with outsiders before going to bed.

It is a shallow taste, but it has a unique style and taste......

Ping'er slept lightly, and she slept on a small couch next to Jia Cong's bed.

As soon as there was movement at the door, she heard it in a trance, and when there was a small chirping sound, she woke up, turned her head to look, and saw Xiaojiao'er spreading the news outside the door.

Ping'er is already smart and smart, so why can't she guess who is playing tricks?

She turned her head to look at Jia Cong first, and when she saw that Jia Cong also opened her eyes, she couldn't help but ask with concern, "But you were woken up?" ”

Jia Cong shook her head slightly, admiring the shallow and lazy beauty when she first woke up, but it made Ping'er more and more shy.

The outsiders seemed to know the situation inside, and they giggled.

Ping'er scolded in shame: "A group of small hooves who are used to being narrow are really bad!" Coaxing the little horn to come out, you also have a face? More and more ignorant of the rules! ”

Hearing this, Qingwen, Xiaohong, Chunyan and Xiangling rushed in, like four fresh morning flowers, and said with a smile: "Let's say hello to the third master and grandma!" ”

When Ping'er heard this, she was so ashamed that she couldn't even care about wearing her outer clothes, only wearing a small coat, jumped down from the soft couch and grabbed Xiaohong, who was a step slower, and said with a red face: "See if I don't tear your bad mouth!" ”

Xiaohong stomped her feet and shouted, "God! But let's have a big master, where is what I shouted! ”

Ping'er is so shrewd, gritted her teeth and said hatefully: "Qingwen is a rectum, Chunyan and Xiangling are also good, you think the most on weekdays, you don't know about me?" As he spoke, he turned back to the grinning little horn standing at the door and said, "Did Xiaohong ask you to be a pioneer scout?" ”

Xiao Jiao'er nodded despite Xiao Hong's eyes.

Everyone burst into laughter, and Jia Cong couldn't help laughing.

Xiaohong saw that she was relieved, and said coquettishly: "Good sister, please spare me this time, I am also kind......"

Ping'er laughed angrily: "You are also called kind? ”

Xiaohong said weakly: "Yes, aren't we afraid that the third master and my sister will miss the time!" Today, the third master is going to be a messenger, but he can't delay. ”

Ping'er smiled at Jia Cong and said, "Look at your good girl, does she have many children?" ”

Jia Cong smiled and said, "For their sake, let's spare this time." ”

said to Xiaohong and the others: "It's only this once." ”

When Xiaohong and the others heard this, they hurriedly reassured again and again, saying, "I will never dare to have a next time!" ”

Jia Cong hummed, looked at the sky outside, and said with a smile: "It's time to get up, the Gongyuan side, I'm afraid it's also up." ”

After that, Ping'er Qingwen and the others stopped laughing, and served Jia Cong to change clothes and wash up, and brought breakfast.

After Jia Cong walked around Jia Zhenghe East Road Courtyard, he took six long entourages and went directly to Gongyuan.

……

Compared with Jia Cong's troubles during the day yesterday and the fragrance of his red sleeves at night, the more than 3,000 candidates in the Beijing Gongyuan lived a very calm and tense life.

As the saying goes, there is no first in the text, there is no second in the martial arts, before the list is released, every candidate feels that his articles are rare in the world.

I don't dare to say that the five leaders reconcile the yuan, because there are always examiners who are blind......

But at least you can mix it up and make it to the list, right? You can't be completely blind......

Coupled with the shabby and shabby nature of the room and the rough diet, many candidates were also moved by their hardships.

I think that the hard work is worth it, and this subject must be successful!

So on the day of handing in the papers, most of the thousands of students were extremely excited.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

At the beginning of the hour, on the Mingyuan floor of the Gongyuan, three drums sounded.

Today's first wave of winding time is up, and anyone who is willing to submit the paper at this time can hand in the paper.

In addition, there are two waves of winding time at noon and in the afternoon, which end at night before the sky is completely dark.

The three-way drum stopped, and many rooms began to hand in the papers.

At the same time, the gate and the gantry, which had been closed, slowly opened.

The first township test has come to an end.

It's just that when the gate and the dragon gate just opened, as soon as Ding Fu, the Jingying soldier who guarded the Gongyuan inside, appeared, he was shocked by the scene on the Qingyun Bridge outside the Gongyuan.

10,000 soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp surrounded the Gongyuan, and the envoy of the Beijing camp festival and the prince of the nine provinces came here in person, and the handsome flag was displayed.

Thousands of brocade clothes and horses stared at the gate of the Gongyuan like tigers and wolves, ready to move, and the anger was overwhelming.

There is also a big man in a vermilion purple official uniform, standing on the Qingyun Bridge, overlooking the opposite bank......

Looking at this scene, the open-door soldier was directly frightened, and fell to his knees on the spot, his heart jumped violently, and there was only one word in his heart:

Something happened!

……

Yongxingfang, Ye House.

Xuanning Hall.

Ye Qingzheng, the son of Furong, had breakfast with the maid Qingzhu, although his status was prominent and noble, breakfast was only a bowl of rouge rice porridge and two dishes of side dishes.

Although the master and servant are called master and servant, they are actually sisters, and they do not pay attention to the rules of eating without saying a word when eating.

But it's mostly Qingzhu chattering and laughing......

"Miss, do you think the son of Qingchen is smart or not~ He attaches so much importance to the imperial examination, but he dares to hand in the paper without writing a word, and he also went out of the second gate of the Gongyuan, hehe, it's really smart!"

"Miss, do you say that the son of Qingchen is powerful~ Lu Zhao and Wang Li thought they were the fourth prince of Chang'an, and they ran to calculate others, but they were caught by others, they really laughed to death!"

Ye Qing chewed a bite of the dish and asked lightly, "So last night, you giggled and said this in your dreams?" ”

"Where?"

Qingzhu blushed and categorically denied: "It must be that Miss heard it wrong, Miss Yesterday when she entered the palace and heard the news, she was also happy!" Others can't see it, I can't see it? The young lady's eyebrows are ......"

"Eat!"

Ye Qing had already finished drinking the last mouthful of porridge, and Qingzhu still had half a bowl left.

She treats Qingzhu well, otherwise in other people's homes, there is no reason for the master to put down the chopsticks and continue to eat.

Qingzhu also knew what to do, and knew that Ye Qing didn't like to listen to such words, so he pouted and stopped, eating in small sips, while enjoying the taste.

Let Ye Qing see it and smile.

However, there was not much light and joy in his eyes.

Yesterday, when I first heard that Jia Cong decisively handed in the paper and took people, the surprise has receded.

Although Jia Cong dealt with this matter decisively, he left too many hidden dangers and offended too many people.

The key is that in the end, Emperor Chongkang gave him a meritorious name, but he was pushed to the forefront.

Since then, it has almost been cut off from Shilin.

There are 3,000 people in this department, not to say that they all hate him, but absolutely all of them don't like him.

It's not about character, it's about human nature.

In other words, I worked hard in the Gongyuan for three days and two nights, and after thinking that this department would be successful, I ended up leaving the Gongyuan, but I was told that this department was invalid because someone reported fraud.

Everyone has to stay up for another year to take the exam, and the person who reported it handed in a self-defiled ink scroll without writing a word, but became the only person in this subject.

No matter what kind of person you are, it is difficult for people to like this whistleblower, including other people in the world, and the same is true.

Not to mention the new, old and eunuch parties involved.

Ye Qing sighed lightly in her heart, she was somewhat puzzled by Chongkangdi's approach.

I am afraid that he wants to block Jia Cong's way in the civil service, perhaps he wants to support him to carry the banner of the founding of the country in the future, and compete with the noble lineage of Zhen Yuan.

Although there is a prince Teng now, Wang Ziteng is not a noble in the end, he is a little worse, and he is really at a disadvantage against the people of Shangzhen Yuanxungui.

Now the Jia family has such a mental and tactical approach, and it is destined not to go too far in the civil service system in the future, because after all, there is a knighthood in the body.

Therefore, instead of wasting it in Shilin, it is better to force back to the ranks of the nobles as soon as possible, act as a knife for Emperor Chongkang, and fight against the Zhenyuan Xungui......

I don't know what I thought, Ye Qing's face suddenly became strange, and his squinted eyes were extremely good-looking, but his eyes were faintly dangerous and crazy.

She has never been a boudoir lady waiting for her husband and children, never ......

……

"What...... What the? ”

Outside the Gongyuan, the students who had just been excited and thought that they would be able to carp and jump over the dragon gate in the first wave of papers, as soon as they came out of the dragon gate, they were frightened by the big scene outside the door, and then they didn't even give them the time to speak, and they were settled in the open space on the bank of Qingyun Bridge.

Then, by the Lantai Temple Zuodu Imperial Historian Yang Yangzheng Elder worshipped the statue of Confucius in front of the Dragon Gate of the Gongyuan, and after explaining the reason to the sage, a thousand soldiers and horses of the Beijing battalion and three hundred brocade clothes and horses sharpened their knives and Huo Huo entered the Gongyuan to clear the field and take people.

After all the 3,000 students were actively or passively concentrated on the shore of Qingyun Bridge, and Jinyi Tiqi and others took down all the examiners in the Gongyuan and all the students who knew to be bribed and locked out, Yang Yangzheng read out the will of Emperor Chongkang in front of everyone.

After learning that there was fraud in this section and all of them were boycotted, the students who had been holding back their mood finally couldn't hold back the feeling of loss with a huge gap and made a loud noise.

"Bell!"

"Bell!"

"Bell!"

Guarding against this for a long time, a public man beside Yang Yangzheng raised the gong and struck it three times.

There are also the war horses of the brocade-clothed horsemen who can't help but neigh, and the evil atmosphere is permeated......

The students finally quieted down, but everyone's faces were extremely ugly.

At this time, the scholars had not completely lost their arrogance and blood, and a young scholar stepped forward and bowed first, and then got up and asked proudly: "Dare to ask the Imperial Doctor, since you have learned who bribed the examination and who revealed the examination papers, and the papers of these candidates are removed, why do you have to depose the suffering of one subject such as me?"

Adults are also from the first class, when they know the hardships and hardships of the imperial examination, please forgive me! ”

"Please forgive me and call the shots!!"

The three thousand students all pleaded deeply.

Among them, there are even some old men with good heads, and they are even more sobbing.

They have been taking the exam for a lifetime and are just a showman, in order to get a reputation for the exam, they are willing to give up their careers, and they feel that they are able to do so, but they don't want to suffer this catastrophe, how can they not be sad?

This cry aroused disappointment in the hearts of many people, and for a while, the cry shook the sky.

Many people expect Yang Yangzheng to make decisions for them and save this department.

But there are also many people who understand, knowing that this subject will be irretrievable, and when their hearts are dead, they set their eyes on the young scholar beside Yang Yangzheng, and there are people who recognize his identity, their eyes are subtle, and they quietly talk to the people around them......
