"What's wrong?" Mingchuan was dressed in a light blue jacket, with a circle of white mink fur around his neck, and his voice was cold and noble.

"Master, it's Li Hao, he probably came to ask for medicine, but he collapsed as soon as he opened his mouth." Ah Ling explained.

"What a troublemaker." Mingchuan shook his head and turned his back and walked away.

After walking a few steps, I heard a voice, "Carry him in, if he dies in front of our pharmacy, he won't be able to wash himself by jumping into the Yellow River." ”

Ah Ling laughed loudly, this guy is still the same as always.

The small body struggled to carry the man's body and moved towards the house step by step. At this time, Mingchuan was sitting at the table, drinking tea unhurriedly.

Ah Ling was tired, and when he saw Mingchuan's leisurely appearance, he was very unhappy, and he was strange: "Master, you don't come to help me, such a big man, but I am tired." ”

Mingchuan disagreed, and asked rhetorically: "Isn't it your own kindness that is a big trouble in the stall?" It's not me who wants to help him, it's you, who is to blame? ”

Ah Ling was asked and had nothing to say, so he had to hum and chirp and lift Li Hao to the collapse next to him.

After pouring a few mouthfuls of hot soup, Li Hao woke up, and his frozen face was also a little bloody, although he said that Ah Ling was tired, he had to admit that this guy was really thin.

"Hmm...... Ahem. When Li Hao opened his eyes, he found the unfamiliar environment around him, and struggled a few times in horror, and the first thing he saw was Ah Ling's face.

"I ...... Ah Ling, I'm really sorry to trouble you again. Li Hao's eyes drooped slightly, and he didn't know what his expression was.

Ah Ling waved his hand, brought a bowl of dumplings, and said with a smile: "It's a cold day, you don't know how to wear more and come again, block, eat this bowl of dumplings while it's hot." ”

Li Hao hesitated again and again, and Ah Ling added in a low voice, "This is made by my master himself, you can't refute his face, otherwise it will be terrifying." ”

Only then did he take the dumplings, and looked gratefully at Mingchuan who was drinking tea at the table over there.

I don't know when was the last time I ate dumplings? Probably when my father was still alive, right? It was the Chinese New Year, and the family of three was eating dumplings together, and they were happy......

Li Hao looked at the dumplings, a little moved, and then under Ah Ling's urging to eat slowly, every bite of the food, his nose did not feel sour.

After eating the dumplings, Ah Ling had already packed the medicine, this time she gave a lot of medicine, enough to finish this winter, just in case, she also gave a lot of medicine against wind and cold.

Li Hao took the medicine, and once again he didn't know how to repay it, and inadvertently found that the silver was secretly stuffed in the medicine bag.

He didn't know what to say, so he had to salute Ah Ling and Ming Chuan, "When the winter passes, the spring season is in full bloom, and it is the time for me to be named on Li's gold list." ”

"In the future, I will not forget the great kindness of the two!" After Li Hao finished speaking, he took the medicine and left.

Looking at his slender but graceful back, Ah Ling admired and felt sad at the same time.

This winter is very cold, but with medicine and silver, life is still good. Ah Ling sent a lot of money and things back and forth here, and finally filled the house with some cotton clothes and quilts, and used firewood

It was cold and windy outside, but it was still warm in the dilapidated house. Mother was finally able to get out of bed and sit by the firewood to take a nap. Li Hao stayed next to his mother and read.

Because of the extra worry in his heart, his reading enthusiasm became more intense, and the book seemed to grow in his hand, and he never left it all day long, reading it when eating, working, and even going to the toilet, and even the dream words he said in his dreams.

This year's cold winter passed faster than before, probably with the help of Ah Ling, spring finally came as scheduled, and Li Hao embarked on the road to the exam with some dry food on his back.

The exam was divided into three sessions, and he easily passed the first two, leaving the last written exam, which was written by the saint. Each person has a position, and both sides are blocked.

It seems fair and just, but who doesn't know the undercurrent underneath? The prince of the official's family, if he hadn't relied on his father to desperately throw money into it, how could he enter this third round?

Less than five minutes before the end of the exam, Li Hao handed in the paper, the examiner nodded, and he couldn't wait to go back to the inn and send a letter to his mother.

But within a few days, Li Hao was caught in front of the examiner Zhou Ping, and he was put up as soon as he woke up, and now he is in a daze.

"Li Hao, Li Hao, why are you so confused? The official has always been optimistic about you, but you are ...... You've let me down so much! Zhou Ping spun around beside him.

He was even more stupid when he said this call, and asked: "The candidate doesn't understand what the adult means, please make it clear." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Ping hesitated for a moment, and finally handed the two exam papers to Li Hao.

"This ...... How so! Li Hao looked at the two identical exam papers and was dumbfounded. The only difference is the name on it, one is Li Hao, and the other is ......

Wang Yong!

Zhou Ping put his hands behind his back and said, "Two identical exam papers, you can tell me by yourself to see what's going on." Now the Holy One already knows......"

"Cheating is a head-off, how can you be so confused!" Zhou Ping has always looked at Li Hao, and now his eyes are full of expressions of cherishing talents.

Li Hao hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "The villain really doesn't know what's going on, I definitely don't have a ...... to cheat with Wang Yong."

Of course, Zhou Ping didn't believe it at first, but later, considering that Li Hao's family was poor, it was very likely that he had seen Qian and made such a big mistake, so he was tied up to ask him clearly.

Li Hao thought about it before he reacted and said: "The villain was the first to hand in the papers, and at that time, I saw that the adult who collected the papers was not you, and hesitated. ”

"Could it be that after the villain handed in the paper and left, the person ...... my test paper," Li Hao explained.

"Shhh

"I want to believe you, too, but I can't say it now...... This time, the Holy Dragon Yan is furious, and he will definitely summon the two of you into the palace, and it will not be too late for you to feed yourself and defend yourself at that time, but ......"

Zhou Ping touched the beard on his chin and said, "Wang Yong has his father behind him, I'm afraid it's very difficult, unless Wang Yong himself reveals some flaws." ”

Li Hao frowned and was silent, it seemed that he could only wait until he entered the palace to face the saint, and he was making plans. But now he can't get out, so he has to be temporarily detained in prison, quietly waiting for the day to come.

It's just a pity that the letter from home that was not sent......
