Chapter 40: Autumn Season
Lan Xiruo was surprised, and said, "I heard from the shopkeeper that he overslept after drinking the night before and didn't catch the exam." β
Yuan Su snatched the needle and thread from Lan Xiruo's hand and put it down, got up and said, "I have to go and see the transcript of the inquiry again, you go to sleep first, don't wait for me." β
Lan Xiruo nodded meekly, knowing that Yuan Su had discovered something, so she packed up and turned around and lay down.
Sure enough, Yuan Su didn't return overnight, and only came back in a hurry the next morning, changed his clothes and went out again.
Lan Xiruo was worried, and she didn't know what to do, so she could only wait at home.
In the blink of an eye, the autumn season ended, some people were happy and some were sad, but it was always another pass, the students seemed to be birds out of the cage, drinking or traveling together, and those who heard the news of the dead students were just more sighs and sorrows, but what worried them the most was the release of the list three days later.
On that day, in front of the autumn examination institute, there was a sea of people, and as soon as the list was posted, there were excited, lost, and crying, and all kinds of life were in it.
Prime Minister Chun Yu returned to his house as early as after the release of the list, bathed and rested, and slept for a whole day before he heard about the student, and sighed for a while.
In fact, he knew that student, and when he passed by the Gaosheng Inn, he had seen him calm and calm in a group of students.
Moreover, he also thought about catching his son-in-law and condemning him to Yan Yan.
Forehead...... Prime Minister Chun's heart suddenly burst out, and he immediately retracted this thought.
If it is known that he has this thought, coupled with the twists and turns of Yan Yan's blind date a few times ago, maybe another sentence of Kefu will be added to her ugly rumors, it will be terrible......
Speaking of catching a son-in-law under the list, Chun Yu is not a whim, with the lessons of the previous few times, he thinks that it is better to find a student with an inconspicuous family background and outstanding character, so that he will also take care of Yan Yan more in the way of his own face, in fact, money or something, not as happy as Yan Yan is the most important.
Of course, it is also because Yan Yan's mother felt sorry for her daughter back then, and she began to save for the dowry since she was a child, and Qingting's dowry was all left to Yan Yan, so if the man is motivated and talented, and has a good character, it would be good to know how to respect Yan Yan.
Such a candidate is naturally the most worthy of selection in the autumn season.
Fortunately, the emperor pointed him to be the chief examiner again, hey, the time and place are favorable.
Although it is a very eye-catching thing that a student jumped off a building in Qiuqiu, after so many days, there is no other news coming out, and people sigh at most, and they begin to immerse themselves in the joy of releasing the list again.
At most, a few students who were in the same inn at that time were called by Yuan Su to ask questions.
On this day, the wind is beautiful and the autumn breeze is cool.
Chun Yuyan and Du Bingxin made an appointment to go to Linlang Pavilion, and now Yan Yan has also begun to rejoice, and he has gone out generously, the second lady is very happy, and she is getting better and better for Du Bingxin.
Du Bingxin, who gave him a bunch of gifts, went out, Chun Yuyan was in a good mood, turned a corner, raised his feet and walked towards the garden.
At this time, the autumn chrysanthemum in the garden blooms just right, it can be used to make a chrysanthemum pot, put fresh soup, fish balls, fresh meat, chicken breast in the pot, tear the chrysanthemum into petals, cover the pot and simmer, it can be eaten in a moment, the soup is fresh and the meat is tender and has the fragrance of flowers, complement each other, think about it is delicious.
Turn the rockery surrounded by vines, enter the eye is a piece of golden, the pretty chrysanthemums open one by one, bright and straight, look at it from afar, like the endless brocade that stretches, like the colorful glow on the horizon so dazzling.
The petals are slender and slightly upturned, like the corners of the lips of a little girl's smiling lips, and the stamens are slightly yellow and shy hidden in the middle of the flowers, blowing in the majestic wind, swaying, like a beautiful skirt of a dancing girl.
In the midst of this beautiful scenery, a loud chanting sound was heard.
The flowers are not blooming and the flowers are thick, and the independent sparse hedge is not endless.
I'd rather die with incense on the branches, and how could he have blown down in the north wind.
"Good poetry!" Chun Yuyan couldn't help but clap his hands and praise.
Raising his eyes, on the edge of the brilliant flowers, a thin and tall man wearing a blue cloth shirt looked over in surprise, his face was like a spring willow moon, his color was like Uncle He Ping, his demeanor was outstanding, and his literary quality was polite.
"You, but you put on powder?"
After speaking, Chun Yuyan couldn't wait to bite off his tongue, what kind of person is this asking?
The man was stunned for a moment, then his face began to flush until it reached his neck.
His eyes were also dodging, and he didn't know where to put them.
If it was a man who said this, I am afraid that he would have been beaten a long time ago, but the woman in front of him ......
The man by the bush hesitated, unsure if this was called flirting?
"Oh, that, I mainly want to compliment you on your outstanding talents......"
Chun Yu Yan realized it after realizing it, and explained.
Unexpectedly, the man's face in front of him turned from red to black, and he turned around and ran away.
Chun Yuyan blinked, turned around and pinched Du Ruo, and said in a trance: "Du Ruo, I just saw the hell, right?" β
Du Ruo snorted, gritted his teeth and said, "Girl, it's not a ghost, it's a human." β
"Hey, why don't I hurt?"
Du Ruo: "......"
Raising the bruised arm that was pinched, he said in a flat voice: "You are pinching a slave maid......"
"Ah, oh, haha, that, I'm sorry." Chun Yuyan scratched his head and smiled at the corners of his mouth.
Picking a basket of delicate golden chrysanthemums, Chun Yuyan entered the kitchen with great interest.
Half an hour later, the steaming chrysanthemum pot was on the table.
Chun Yurui was in the Guozijian during the day, and Jiao Niang sat at the table with joy, staring at the fragrant pot.
"Huh? What about the father? β
Chun Yuyan didn't see the prime minister left and right, so he couldn't help asking.
In the past, there were new dishes, and my father would definitely not be absent.
The second lady held the chopsticks and said with a smile: "There is a lifter to worship the master, and your father is in the front yard." β
This is also the rule of the previous autumn season, the chief examiner of the year is the seat teacher of those who are lifted, and after the spring palace examination in the second year, they are uniformly called the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Son of Heaven.
The Prime Minister is so amazing and brilliant, and he has real power, who doesn't want to stammer?
However, there is also a mystery in whether you see it or not, of course, cough, it also depends on the mood of the prime minister.
This year's students, a few of whom meet the prime minister's criteria for choosing a son-in-law, are all sitting in the flower hall in the front yard at the moment.
Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the witty words are full of witty words, good poems and good words are at your fingertips, and they all quietly give full play to their literary talents at a high level, and they all want to take this opportunity to win the blue eyes of the prime minister.
After all, there is only one teacher, but there are so many students, with a close and strong teacher-student relationship, it can be regarded as a backer and a step in the officialdom in the future, right?
Everyone understands the truth, but to do it, it has to be like a spring breeze and rain to not be annoying, the prime minister took a chopstick and put the vegetables in his mouth, and observed them silently.
At this time, a burst of aroma wafted over, and the prime minister couldn't help but raise his eyes to look over, and the little maid took a cloth towel and came in with a brass pot.
