When he returned to the courtyard, there was still a lively scene downstairs, and the youngest son of Nanjing Mansion Yin was the first to bear the brunt, this is life, Ning Zhiyuan chuckled, and he walked directly to the pharmacy during the day.

Under the amazed eyes of the old doctor, after buying thousand-year-old ginseng and some nourishing medicinal materials, Ning Zhiyuan walked to Li Ding's country. There were still more than sixty taels of silver left on his body, and he thought that he should change into better clothes, but it was not good to treat himself badly.

"Dingguo, Dingguo," just walked to the gate of Li Dingguo, taking advantage of the night, Ning Zhiyuan saw that Li Dingguo had just entered the house, and couldn't help but wonder, where did this goods go at night, won't you go to the kiln? Thinking about it, I felt that it was impossible, so I simply shouted.

The whole room was dark, and there was faint moonlight streaming in, which was in stark contrast to the bright courtyard that had just returned home.

In the dark, Ning Zhiyuan saw that Li Dingguo's mood was very low, in his mind, this was normal, not low is abnormal, Li Dingfang was very light sleep, and the movement just now had woken him up, so he couldn't help asking, "Zhiyuan, why are you here?" ”

"Guess?" Ning Zhiyuan suddenly became happy when he heard this, and said, "I bought thousand-year-old ginseng." He was very proud in his heart, maybe this was the first thing he did in this world that could change history, at least that's what he thought.

"Ah" Li Dingguo exclaimed, and asked in an excited tone, "What you said is true?" ”

Ning Zhiyuan obviously noticed the change in the atmosphere in the room, nodded with a smile, raised the things in his hand, and said, "Naturally it's true, didn't you see that I brought it." ”

In the hazy night, Li Dingguo felt that he clearly saw the ginseng in Ning Zhiyuan's hand. couldn't help but be happy, and blurted out, "I was just thinking about where to grab a deal." ”

“————”

Ning Zhiyuan was stunned, it seems that this kid just went out to step on something, but according to the history he is familiar with, he shouldn't have gotten so much money. He laughed and scolded, "How can it be so easy, you kid." ”

Li Dingguo said embarrassedly, "It's really not simple, those big families are well guarded, but Zhiyuan, the money you got there?" ”

Li Dingfang also asked the same thing at this time.

"I got it back home, and I was lucky to write a good poem." Ning Zhiyuan told the truth, anyway, tomorrow all the readers in Nanjing should know, and he never doubted the ability of those readers to spread gossip and Nalan Xingde's classic of poppy beauty.

Hand the things in his hand to Li Dingguo, and instructed, Ning Zhiyuan planned to go back, it was really not early, and the round girl didn t know if she was asleep, he thought to himself.

Leaving the staring Li Dingfang brothers, they didn't know what they were thinking.

Looking at Xing Yuanyuan, who was sleeping in blue, Ning Zhiyuan felt a trace of warmth in his heart, this is his nest in this era.

Good night

"This article is well written, citing scriptures, reasonable, and evidence-based, and should be used as an explanation." In the study room of the government office, an examiner said to an article that the paper had entered the final stage, and more than 100 articles had been screened out again for 70. That's the number of people who are lifted.

"I think it's better to have this one, the beginning is from the Analects, and in the middle" another old-fashioned examiner made a different opinion.

"No, no, although your eight-share article is also a good article, it is a little cliché, or this one is good, let's leave it to Examiner Li for judgment." At the beginning, an examiner said that he was looking at Ning Zhiyuan's test paper.

"That's fine."

Li Julin looked at the two articles in front of him, and immediately had an obvious tendency, it was obvious that the novel article was better, and the sentence 'Hide in a small building to become a unity, bow your head and be willing to be a son of a cow' is really incisive, the former sentence is the people, the latter sentence is for the officials, and he was about to announce it, and suddenly remembered one thing.

So he pondered for a moment and said, "Wait, I'll come as soon as I go." ”

Xu Guangqi was so tired that the emperor should not resign, and gave him a few days off, so he ran to Jinling to relax, and he was still very grateful for the emperor's grace.

"Lord Xu, this is an article that should be tested in Tianxiang this year, please take a look."

Xu Guangqi is almost seventy years old this year, and he has experienced too much about the imperial examination, and he really has no interest in relying on the imperial examination, so he waved his hand, "Kulin can make his own decision, and you are the main exam." ”

Li Julin said, "Xia Guan thinks that there is an article that is very unique, so"

"Oh?" Xu Guangqi was a little interested and took the article.

"Hide in a small building and become a unity, bow your head and be willing to be a son of a cow." Xu Guangqi looked at it for a moment, his face was a little complicated, and he suddenly smiled, "Interesting, interesting, it should be Xie Yuan." ”

Li Julin also laughed

Ten days after the township test, the time for the release of the list has arrived.

Ning Zhiyuan was a little excited in his heart, but he no longer had the same urgency as before, no matter what, without Yulu, he could still live a good life, and he could still plagiarize poetry, but the kind of blood in his bones that made him famous still make him think of high school.

A large group of people gathered at the front of the list, so that Ning Zhiyuan, who came late, was helpless, his small body was much better, but he didn't want to join in the excitement, so he waited for the onlookers to disperse.

Just waiting and waiting, Ning Zhiyuan felt that something was wrong, this person, why are there more and more, some people sighed, some people cried, and some people laughed, and the scene was a mess.

"Township test Xie Yuan - Ning Zhiyuan," suddenly a high-pitched voice sounded, making Ning Zhiyuan's head instantly vacuum for a while, and said incredibly, "Ning Zhiyuan? ”

"Township test solution yuan - Ning Zhiyuan."

"Township test solution yuan - Ning Zhiyuan."

The voice was repeated twice, looking at Ning Zhiyuan, who was stunned on the side, a scholar next to him sighed and said to him, "Xie Yuan is good, you don't have to wait with us to see the list before someone enters the door to report the good news, you say yes, brother." ”

"Hehe, yes." Ning Zhiyuan gradually reacted from the surprise and chuckled.

"However, this Ning Zhiyuan is known for his talent, how many talented women and prostitutes attracted the attention of that poppy beauty a month ago, and the couplet that sees through the world."

Ning Zhiyuan listened to it on the side, and his head was full of black lines, are there many people who fall in love with me, why don't I know? Shook his head and left, ignoring the foolish brother.

Returned to the door of the house, the previously deserted alley became lively, many people gathered around the door of their house, and the yards were locked, it seemed that Xing Yatou did not dare to open the door, frowning, Ning Zhiyuan climbed in from the courtyard wall on the side, in this case, he really didn't worry about the little girl being at home alone.

"Who" As soon as he jumped into the courtyard, Xing Yuanyuan exclaimed, holding a stick and gesturing, looking at the wooden stick that touched his chest, and at Xing Yuanyuan, who painted his face dirty, Ning Zhiyuan felt funny and a little guilty, "Don't you know me?" ”

"Brother Ziyu" Xing Yuan pursed his mouth with red eyes, "I'm afraid"
