On March 15, Xu Xian bid farewell to his teacher Zhang Jingming, and walked out of the gate of Muyang Academy under the send-off of Qin Jie and other senior brothers.

The prefectural examination is held on April 15, and candidates who have passed the county examination must go to Lin'an City in advance to familiarize themselves with the environment.

Although Qiantang County is a three-day journey to Lin'an City at most, and if you take a horse-drawn carriage to speed up the horse, you can do it in one day, but Lin'an City is not an ordinary city after all, it is the capital of Shengguo.

Shengguo once fell more than half of the country, moved the capital to Lin'an City, retreated to the south, and later after decades of hard work, successfully recovered the homeland and restored the old capital Bianjing.

As the former national capital, Lin'an City is extremely prosperous and developed, and it is not easy for foreign candidates to be familiar with the environment.

In addition, there is another important reason, after arriving in Lin'an City, candidates from other places need to use the time to familiarize themselves with the environment to make a name for themselves, and understand the resume, personality, preferences, preferences and preferences of the examiner and others.

The purpose of knowing the examiner is to avoid accidentally offending the examiner's taboos when answering the exam. Make a name for yourself, let the examiner and others notice you, and it is easy to get a good ranking.

The imperial examination is by no means feasible by "ignoring the affairs outside the window with both ears and only reading the books of sages and sages".

Leaving aside the above reasons, just the strategy of the exam questions often involves important and popular current events.

Walking out of the gate of Muyang Academy, there were many carriages parked outside, and these carriages were all taking the candidates who were going to Lin'an City Mansion to go home.

There are many candidates who have passed the county examination in Muyang Academy this year, more than 60, accounting for more than half of the county's quotas.

Before Xu Xian went to Muyang Academy after the Qingming Festival, he had already told Li Gongfu and Li Xu that he would return home on March 15, and it was expected that they had arranged a carriage to pick him up.

Sure enough, as soon as he said goodbye to Qin Jie and the others, a coachman immediately stepped forward and respectfully saluted and asked, "Are you the son of Xu Hanwen?" ”

"I am." Xu Xian nodded.

The coachman immediately saluted respectfully again and said, "The little one has bowed to Xu Gongzi." Xu Gongzi, please get into the carriage. ”

"I'm tired." Xu Xian bowed his head and walked with the coachman to a two-horse carriage.

Seeing that it was actually a two-horse carriage that picked him up, Xu Xian frowned slightly, feeling a little extravagant.

However, he immediately thought that maybe Li Gongfu felt that he was about to try, so he was more comfortable and had a good start.

"Master Xu, please get into the carriage." The coachman said again.

Xu Xian nodded and began to step on the stool to board the carriage, but when he lifted the curtain, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and suddenly found that there was actually a person sitting in the carriage.

"Hee-hee, Xu Gongzi." When the people in the carriage saw him, they immediately chuckled and shouted.

Xu Xian came back to his senses, glanced at the man, recognized the other party, and responded a little unexpectedly: "It turned out to be Miss Cen." ”

It turned out that Xiaoqing was dressed as a man at the moment, and Xu Xian didn't recognize it at first sight.

"Thank you, Miss Cen for your kindness. However, the family has already sent a carriage to pick it up. Xu Xian said, ready to get off the carriage.

Xiaoqing hurriedly shouted, "Wait." Your carriage has gone back, and the coachman has a stomach. ”

Then, there was a look of grievance on her pretty face: "Young Master Xu, don't you even want to sit in other people's carriages?" ”

"Miss Cen, you misunderstood. There is a difference between men and women...... "Xu Xian is embarrassed."

Xiaoqing immediately interrupted: "Where is the difference between men and women, I am a man!" Not to mention that the carriage is so spacious. Xu Gongzi, are you a pedantic scholar? ”

"Since Miss Cen was kind enough to invite, Xu was disrespectful." Xu Xian said, entered the carriage and sat down.

After all, he used to be a modern man, and he didn't shy away from riding in the same carriage between men and women.

Seeing that Xu Xian was finally willing to sit in the carriage, Xiaoqing immediately approached two points and shouted happily, "Young Master Xu." ”

Although she said that she was dressed as a man, her disguise was very perfunctory, not only did she hide her plump breasts, but she didn't even remove the rouge on her pretty face, and even the blind could see that she was a woman.

Therefore, her happy smile was very bright, which made Xu Xian's heart beat wildly.

"Hehe, how did Miss Cen find here?" Xu Xian said distractedly.

Xiaoqing covered her mouth and chuckled: "You are the head of the trial case in Tangtang County, who doesn't know you?" A Mid-Autumn Festival poem, even the fairies in the sky were alarmed to come down. ”

"Miss Cen is overrated. The fairy descended to earth is pure fiction, you must not believe the rumors. Xu Xian said with a smile.

At this time, the carriage had already started, and the two chatted and laughed all the way in the carriage, but there was no cold moment.

After the carriage entered the county seat, it did not drive towards Xu Xian's brother-in-law's house, but went to the Linglong Pavilion, the largest sales nest in Qiantang County, and Xu Xian only found out when he got off the carriage.

"Gongzi Xu, you have a great life-saving grace for your concubine, and you will never refuse your concubine's thank you for a banquet, right?" Xiaoqing smiled, "Please." ”

Talking in the carriage, Xiaoqing had changed her self-name to Xu Xian.

Claiming to be a concubine is not shallow.

Xu Xian smiled, did not twist, and walked into the Linglong Pavilion in a chic manner.

Xiaoqing had already booked a private room with a heavenly name in advance, and when they walked into the private room, the maids brought all kinds of delicacies like flowing water, and then a young and beautiful dancing girl walked in and presented a graceful dance.

During this period, Xiaoqing temporarily left the private room, changed back into her daughter's clothes, returned with a smile, and sat down beside Xu Xian.

After changing back into her daughter's outfit, Xiaoqing was even more beautiful and moving, coupled with her smart eyes with affection and a smiling smile, which suddenly overshadowed a group of dancing girls.

"Gongzi Xu, the concubine respects you, thank you for saving the innocence of the concubine in spite of the danger that day." Xiaoqing raised her wine glass and said to Xu Xian, "If you hadn't rescued you that day, the concubine's innocence would have been lost, and the concubine could only die." ”

Xu Xian raised his wine glass in response and said, "Miss Cen is serious. ”

Next, the two drank a glass of wine to each other.

After Xiaoqing drank a glass of wine in one go, her pink cheeks flushed, and she looked even more charming, especially when she smiled charmingly at Xu Xian, she directly hooked Xu Xian's soul, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.

Next, Xiaoqing didn't do anything to Xu Xian, eating, drinking, chatting and laughing.

In this way, an hour later, Xu Xian had enough wine and food, Xiaoqing did not continue to entangle, and simply sent Xu Xian home.

The carriage stopped in front of the gate of Xu Xian's brother-in-law's house, and in the carriage, Xu Xian said goodbye to Xiaoqing.

Xu Xian didn't say anything to invite Xiaoqing to his brother-in-law's house to sit, he was a little weak-hearted, like a thief.

But Xiaoqing took the initiative to say generously: "Master Xu, it's inconvenient today, so the concubine won't visit your house for the time being." The concubine will visit you again another day, and I hope you don't refuse. ”

"How could you refuse?" Xu Xian said with a smile.

He has a good impression of Xiaoqing, and when he gets along with Xiaoqing, he almost doesn't feel the pressure, he is generous, and he stops in moderation, occasionally with a hint of cunning, which is even more cute, plus Xiaoqing is as beautiful as a fairy, which really makes him unable to reject.

After a pause, he said again: "It's just that I'm going to leave for Lin'an Mansion tomorrow." It will take at least one and a half months to go to the government to take the hospital test. ”

"Lin'an Mansion, the concubine body is also very yearning." Xiaoqing chuckled lively, "Young Master Xu, the concubine won't send you off the carriage." ”

Xu Xian listened to Xiaoqing's ambiguous meaning, but at this moment, Xiaoqing was already about to drive people away, so he had to give up his hand and say, "Miss Cen, say goodbye." ”

"Goodbye Gongzi Xu." Little Qingdao.

So, Xu Xian got out of the carriage.

After Xu Xian got out of the carriage, he turned around to look at the carriage.

At this time, the curtain of the car opened a corner, revealing Xiaoqing's beautiful face, and then a small jade hand stretched out and waved at him.

Xu Xian couldn't help but smile, and raised his hand in response and waved his hand to Xiaoqing.

Next, the carriage started to leave, and Xu Xian also turned around and walked to the gate and knocked on the door.
