Chapter Forty-Eight: Departing for the Examination Room

Zhao Qi looked down at her, trying to see her thoughts through her dark eyes, and then said very unhappily: "Lao Tzu thought that you let her go for my sake." ”

Ye Qingzhi raised her gaze from the bottom to the top, and said lightly: "If you marry her, there will be nothing left." ”

Zhao Qi narrowed his eyes and said seriously: "Do you really want me to marry her?" ”

Ye Qingzhi turned her face away, let the wind blow the long hair on her shoulders, and changed the subject: "How did you find me?" ”

didn't answer directly, which made Zhao Qi's heart slightly looser, he didn't want to push Ye Qingzhi too hard, otherwise he would only repeat the scene last time. I'm a little discouraged, so I shouldn't find a girl who has read a book, and the reader will read his mother's ink. However, grinning at the corners of his mouth, he thought again - isn't Lao Tzu interested in her temperament.

Zhao Qi deeply reflected that he may be a little masochistic.

Swinging away the nonsense in his mind, Zhao Qi put on a serious face and said: "Luocheng found out that it was the people from the Nanping Royal Mansion who assassinated you before. ”

Ye Qingzhi nodded: "I see." ”

When it came to this topic, Zhao Qi had palpitations, he dragged Ye Qingzhi and hugged her in his arms, as if he wanted to confirm that she was really good, and at the same time sighed in her ear: "Girl, I'm scared to death." ”

Zhao Qi crisscrossed the battlefield and never knew how to write the words he was afraid of, but today he deeply realized it.

Ye Qingzhi reflexively stretched out her hand and was about to push it away, but when her hand just touched Zhao Qi's clothes, her body felt a slight tremor. She didn't tremble, so what was it......

Ye Qingzhi's fingers stopped, and suddenly remembered that when facing death just now, the last thing that flashed in his mind was this dull black. She lowered her long eyelashes, covering the slight movement of brilliance in her dark eyes.

Ye Qingzhi didn't move, let him hold it, and finally, raised his hand and patted Zhao Qi's back, his voice was flat and slightly cold: "I'm fine." ”

Zhao Qi breathed in the unique herbal smell on her body, as if it had a calming effect, and slowly calmed down from the excitement just now. But Zhao Qi pretended not to hear, it was rare to have such an opportunity, how could he let it go.

Shen Lingjun and Luo Cheng were originally following behind, but at this time, they saw two figures hugging each other from a distance, and they suddenly stopped.

Shen Lingjun raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It seems that this road is not passable, we have to change the road." ”

Kagura and the play also wanted to go and watch, so they let Liangyue and Luo Cheng catch them back.

Who dares to spoil Zhao Qi's good deeds, and he will die tomorrow?!

On the twelfth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar, the whole Luoyang is very lively, because today is the first day of the imperial examination.

In previous years, on this day, that is, everyone came to a pot of tea or wine in teahouses and restaurants, and those who knew each other did not know each other, chatting with each other about this talent, that college, and chatting about the excitement, but there was no sense of participation, and the picture was fresh.

But this year, with the addition of martial arts, it is very different.

Because, the martial arts test can be observed on the spot.

Therefore, Luoyang City was boiling in an instant. In order to occupy a good position, some people did not hesitate to drag the bench in the middle of the night, but unfortunately the soldiers who kept vigil rushed back.

In Dali Temple, Shen Lingjun rarely got up early in the morning, stretched his waist and came out of the room, his eyes hadn't opened yet, and the first sentence was: "Qinghe Cicada Feather, what is delicious today?" ”

In the courtyard, most of the other people were already seated, some eating, and some were doing their own things after eating.

Zhao Qi was in a good mood, holding a piece of scallion pancake and gnawing on the tiger, and when he was almost finished, his stomach patted: "Do you want to go to watch today?" ”

Feng Zheng wanted to see it, but, alas......

Feng Zheng rarely held a book and drank porridge while reading, he didn't sleep well in the first two nights of staying at the Longmen Inn, and his eyes were black.

At noon yesterday, Feng Zheng's father, Feng Shangshu, came here once, offering condolences on the surface, but in fact, he secretly investigated whether Feng Zheng was as unlearned as before, eating and drinking.

Seeing this, Feng Shangshu almost shocked his jaw. Good boy, I have changed my sex since I lived in Dali Temple, and the dark circles under my eyes have come out when I read books. Feng Shangshu was moved to tears on the spot, patted Feng Zheng's shoulder and shouted that the ancestor appeared, Dali Temple is a blessed land.

So, after Feng Shangshu went back, he sent two cars of food and clothing to Dali Temple, and also packed the fine and soft of Fengzheng, which means that Fengzheng was completely fostered in Dali Temple.

Shen Lingjun took a bite of the plum cabbage bun and asked Zhao Qi, "Do you have a place?" ”

"Stay, let L.A. take you there when the time comes." Zhao Qi is the chief examiner of martial arts, although he doesn't need to go out for this kind of preliminary examination, but he is still responsible for the safety of the imperial city, so he has to go to the scene one step in advance.

Before leaving, Zhao Qi asked Ye Qingzhi if she wanted to go with her, Ye Qingzhi shook her head, she and Shen Lingjun just went over together.

So, Zhao Qi took Liangyue and Kagura to leave Dali Temple first and rushed to the examination room.

Li Mengbai leaned against the plane tree and played with his brush, which he wiped several times with a white silk cloth.

During the play, he had plum blossom bean paste in his mouth, and said curiously: "Li Mengbai, do you also want to participate in the imperial examination, but your brush is too big, and it is not very convenient to write." ”

Qinghe heard it, pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "This is someone else's weapon." ”

"Huh~" I haven't seen Li Mengbai make a move during the play, so I didn't know that there were still people who used a brush as a weapon, and said in surprise: "Is this okay?" ”

Li Mengbai took the pen and skillfully turned it around his fingertips, and said with confidence on his face: "That's nature." ”

Mu Qing ate very quickly today, and he also wanted to watch other people's martial arts fights. Hearing Li Mengbai say that brushes can be used as weapons, he tilted his head, and some didn't understand, obviously it was used for writing and painting.

Shen Lingjun finished eating the plum vegetable bun, took another radish cake, and said: "You Heavenly Sect faction, don't all use swords, how do you use a pen?" ”

The Heavenly Sect, which is respected by the Sword Saint, is a sect, but it is divided into various sects, which are related to each other and do not interfere with each other.

Li Mengbai put away the brush and said with a righteous attitude: "Be elegant." ”

"What Brother Li said is reasonable, it's really insulting to fight and kill." Feng Zheng's eyes were fixed on the book, intending to come to a temporary cram, but his ears and mouth were not idle.

Shen Lingjun felt that Li Mengbai might be an alternative to Tianzong, how could he not be elegant with a sword, and Su Mushu was not very elegant to use.

Thinking of Su Musha, Shen Lingjun beckoned to the cicada feather who was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks next to him: "What about Mumu?" ”

"Miss Hui, my uncle went back to Su Mansion last night, it seems that his eldest sister is looking for him for something." Cicada Feather replied seriously.

Shen Lingjun held her forehead, she really felt that she could live a few years less with cicada feathers.

Cicada Feather smiled, and retreated with the empty plate very satisfied, counting how many auspicious days of the zodiac there are this year.

Luo Cheng felt that today seemed to be a little too quiet, something was missing, and suddenly slapped his thigh and remembered - why is Tang Tang, the troublemaker, not here today?

As the saying goes, you can't talk about people behind your back, and this sentence is really a wise saying.

Just after this idea came to Luo Cheng's mind, Tang Tang jumped out of the room, stood in front of everyone, and asked quite proudly, "How is it?" ”

Everyone looked up at the past together, and there were doubts written in their eyes.

Today, Tang Tang pulled his hair into a double bun and changed into a set of clothes, and the cyan cotton clothes were clearly dressed as a small girl. Because Tang Tang was petite, this dress still looked a little big on her body, she shook her sleeves, and the expression on her face was very satisfied.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Biting the fritters during the play, it's very incomprehensible.

Tang Tang had a playful expression written on her face, and she said with a smile: "Am I like a scholar?" ”

Ye Qingzhi glanced at it and said unceremoniously: "It's not like." ”

Tang Tang pursed his lips and automatically ignored Ye Qingzhi's words.

Luo Cheng and the play gave a thumbs up at the same time and praised: "Miss Ye has a good eye." ”

"Phew!" Tang Tang looked at the two of them with disdain, and stuck out his tongue: "Sycophant!" ”

Shen Lingjun held his chin and looked at her for a long time, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said suspiciously: "Could it be that you are going to follow Ah Feng to the examination room?" ”

The strange suicide case that happened before made Shen Lingjun more cautious when dealing with this exam. She thought that if anyone wanted to do something in the examination room, they were all outside, and the people inside except for the candidates were the chief examiner and the deputy chief examiner, all of them were civil officials, and they didn't play much role. The examination room is a closed place, and even the guards are on the periphery, so if something really happens at that time, I am afraid that I will not be able to respond.

After thinking about it, Shen Lingjun decided to arrange Shen Changfeng to enter and disguise himself as a student for the exam. Originally, Shen Changfeng was polite and polite, and he couldn't see it in the pile of scholars.

"That's right." Tang Tang replied very cheerfully, jumped to Shen Lingjun's side, turned around, leaned his face over, blinked his dark eyes, and asked expectantly, "Okay, okay?" ”

Shen Lingjun looked at Tang Tang Tang with a little headache who was full of excitement and eager to try, and she clearly wrote two words on her face - cause trouble!

Luo Cheng tugged Tang Tang's bun and said with a smile: "What are you making a fuss about." ”

He also nodded during the play: "Yes, the scholar is so boring to write and draw, let's go to the martial arts examination field to watch the fight." ”

Tang Tang twisted his face, pulled his hair from Luo Cheng's hand, and snorted: "Don't, I just want to go." ”

At this time, Shen Changfeng was also ready to come out of the room, he changed into the pure white cotton robe he usually wears, and a set of crescent white scholar's clothes were worn on his body, and his whole person was as warm as jade.

Shen Lingjun tapped his fingers on the table and nodded: "Not bad." ”

Qinghe wiped his face and clapped his hands for Mu Qing, who had finished eating: "Young Master Feng looks so good wearing like this." ”

Mu Qing tilted his head and looked curious: "How is Brother Feng dressed the same as Brother Xiaozheng, is he going to take the exam today?" ”

Shen Changfeng walked over and rubbed Mu Qing's little head, and nodded with a smile.

"Yes, stinky Taoist, when you wear it like this, you really look like that." Tang Tang pulled Shen Changfeng to look back and forth, left and right.

Feng Zhengting poked Mu Qing's face dissatisfied, why did he add a small one!

Now that everyone is ready, let's take the exam!

Shen Changfeng said to Feng Zheng, who was still holding the book and struggling at the last moment: "Let's go." ”

Tang Tang laughed and said, "You don't usually work hard." ”
