Chapter 178: Civil Officials Examination

Hua Xiyan and a few people entered the test room, looking at the students who were working hard to write, and a smile overflowed on their lips.

Everyone, from the youngest talents to the old man, is trying to fight for their fame, and I have to say that this feels good.

"How many people are coming from the eldest brother's Jinju Academy?" Hua Xiyan asked Wang Yan.

"Six hundred."

"There are more than 2,000 people who participated in the examination, and the eldest brother alone accounted for 30%."

Wang Jin tilted his head and grinned: "Jinzhou Academy is the first in Shengtian Academy, so there are naturally many people. And there is no shortage of people with distinguished status. For example, Lu Shizi, the brother-in-law of the eldest sister-in-law, Yang Jinwen, the son of the Marquis of Luling, and Yuan Min, the son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, all studied at Jinzhou Academy, and they have all participated in the civil service examination since then. ”

Hua Xiyan then thought of Lu Yuan's younger brother Lu Qi, who had met a few times when he first entered Taiyuan, and then never met again, it turned out that he went to Jinzhou Academy to study. and that Yang Jinwen, it seems that he is Yang Jincheng's brother.

It is said that Jinju Academy is the first in the Holy Heaven, and no one from Wang Sun Guizhou to the poor people does not want to send their children to study there. Therefore, although Wang Yan is not a high-ranking official or dignitary, he is the object of scramble among the people of the Holy Heaven.

If you say that Wang Yan participated in the civil official examination at the age of eighteen and won the top prize, but later learned about the queen and refused to accept the emperor's decree in anger. Emperor Tianlong was furious, but he didn't dare to touch the prince of the royal family, and in a fit of anger, he issued a notice of "never hired", and even deprived him of the title of champion.

But where are other people's talents, do you say that they will be deprived? Wang Yan also happened to be happy, and set up a academy in his spare time, but it was an instant hit.

After Lu Qi came to the academy, Lu Yuan often came to visit, and over time he got to know Wang Yan. In the end, despite Wang Yan's lack of fame, he married under the respect of the county lord, and it was still a beautiful conversation in Taiyuan at that time.

Hua Xiyan turned his head to look at Wang Yan with a light expression, still elegant, but he didn't know if he didn't think of himself when he saw this scene. After some hard work, he won the top prize, but in the end he was stripped of his name, no matter who he gave it to, his heart was bitter.

Wang Yan saw the reluctance and compassion on Huaxi's face, and said with a faint smile: "Yan'er doesn't have to think about it, the champion is just a false name, how can you be happy to be an official in the imperial court now?" I also want to thank the emperor, if it weren't for him, how could I meet your sister-in-law? ”

So Hua Xiyan finally understood that Wang Yan was afraid that he really didn't care. Because of Lu Kite, he made up for the regrets and vacancies in his heart.

And looking at the entire Holy Heaven, except for Yun Qi, Wang Yan's reputation is the loudest. If he really got an official position in the imperial court, where would he have achieved such an achievement now?

It is estimated that Emperor Tianlong's intestines are going to be repentant now. originally wanted to secretly rectify the Wang family, but unexpectedly became a prince.

Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, which is fully reflected here.

Two hours later, the initial session is over, and the examination will last for three days, and in order to ensure fairness and rigor, the students will not be allowed to leave the examination hall for three days, and the family members waiting outside will ask the officers and soldiers to bring in their own food for their families.

For a while, the smell of rice and refreshments spread. Wang Jin sniffed and sighed, "It's really mouth-watering." ”

Hua Xiyan couldn't help but be a little funny: "How do you say that it looks like the fourth prince hasn't eaten for a long time?" ”

Wang Jin pretended to sigh: "Second sister, you don't know, except for your yard, all the regulations on food, clothing and clothing in our other yards have been reduced." ”

And he can't go out and buy his favorite jade antiques at will recently, poor......

When Hua Xiyan heard this, he knew that Wang Qi was doing it. This is the consequence of the closure of more than a dozen money banks in the south...... But Hua Xiyan thought that with the Wang family's background, even if you suffer losses, you won't affect the most basic living expenses, right?

So Hua Xiyan understood what Wang Qi meant - crying poor.

"In the future, the fourth brother can come to Mochizuki Xuan for dinner." Hua Xiyan patted Wang Jin on the shoulder and kindly gave advice.

Wang Jin immediately jumped away, forget it, every day the second sister has a few plates of vegetarian dishes on the table, and there is basically no meat foam. No matter how fancy it is, it's still a vegetable, isn't it? How can he stand it as a carnivore?

So looking at Hua Xiyan and Yun Qi's thinner bodies than the other, and the temperament of the whole body, I couldn't help but secretly think that these two people want to become immortals?

When Hua Xiyan returned to the palace alone, he was stopped by Hua Xiyu.

Looking at his younger brother, who was so busy every day, Hua Xiyan couldn't help but joke: "What kind of wind blew our future young general here?" ”

Hua Xiyu wiped the sweat on her head and said with a smile: "My brother thought that if I didn't see my sister for many days, I would vomit the pain of lovesickness, but I didn't expect that the first sentence would be a blow to my younger brother." ”

Hua Xiyan rolled her eyes, thinking that I haven't seen you for half a year, and now it's only half a month, where is the pain of lovesickness?

"Sister, the imperial order has been issued, and the fifteenth will go on the expedition."

On the fifteenth, Hua Xiyan thought about it and felt that the time was okay, it was not as hasty as she imagined, perhaps because of the relative situation with South Vietnam, so the preparations needed to be done sufficiently.

"How's the preparation?" Hua Xiyan knew that Hua Xiyu had been living in the barracks these days, and he was busy ordering troops and war materials every day, and looking at his thinner cheeks, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

"Okay." Hua Xiyu said, "The general taught me the combat policy before leaving, and I am concentrating on learning these days. ”

Wang Huan led his troops to Beijing a few days ago, and this was an order that had been issued years ago.

Hua Xiyan thought about it, and told Hua Xiyu in detail about his understanding of Yunnan in his previous life and his understanding of South Vietnam in this life. But thinking that his sister is a cautious and cautious person, she will never talk nonsense about things that are nothing, so she also listened attentively and wrote it down carefully. Later events proved that listening carefully to the words of the old lady is the king.

After finishing speaking, Hua Xiyu rushed back to the barracks with a notebook full of things. Hua Xiyan sighed at the gate of Hua Xiyu's courtyard, and then started to look back at Yuexuan.

When he walked to the door of Mochizuki, he saw a tangled face of Qianxia.

"What's going on? His brows were twisted into knots. Hua Xiyan asked a little funny.

"Miss, let's go in and have a look."

With full curiosity, Hua Xiyan entered the house, and then he knew where the entanglement in asking Xia came from.

Now, on her warm jade bed, a person is sleeping on all fours.

The sleeping posture of the famous ladies is all trained, even if the predecessor is a small daughter of the county order, it can be regarded as dignified. But is it really good that the one on the bed, the first prostitute in the Holy Heaven sleeps like this in someone else's bed?

Hua Xiyan knew that he was a self-cooked, but in front of Shen Jia, he still had to bow down.

It seems that since the second meeting, she has never seen herself, from the dinner table to the bed, but just a few moments. But Hua Xiyan admires Shen Jia very much and likes this feeling.

simply didn't bother her, Hua Xiyan sat on the soft couch on the side and picked up a wild history and read it.

Shen Jia slept well this night, and didn't slowly open his eyes until the evening.

Hua Xiyan saw that her face was ruddy, faintly drunk, and the tear mole in the corner of her eyes seemed to be alive. I couldn't help laughing: "Awake? ”

If it were an ordinary woman, she would naturally be very sorry for occupying someone else's master's bed now, but Shen Jia is not an ordinary person and doesn't speak ordinary words, so she just said: "I like your bed." ”

"I'm sorry, I can't send you." Hua Xiyan also replied bluntly.

Shen Jia rolled her eyes: "I didn't plan to ask for it, what are you doing like a wolf?" ”

Huaxi smoke condenses his eyebrows, anti-wolf? She?

Shen Jia didn't get up, and he didn't plan to talk to Hua Xiyan about these useless things, but just said, "That woman was taken back by Wen Chun today." ”

Hua Xiyan nodded, she had already gotten the news.

"Ji Yan, nineteen, Pingcheng beauty, was rescued from the fire by your Yun Gongzi in the Pingcheng disaster five years ago."

Listening to Shen Jia's tone as if he was reporting his account, Hua Xiyan chuckled and said, "You know so clearly? ”

The person she sent out is only today, and if she gets the news, I'm afraid it will take some time.

"She went to Xiangluo Courtyard before, and I didn't confiscate it." Shen Jia explained lightly.

"Why? Her lute and singing voice are top-notch. ”

"It's not pleasing to the eye." It's just five words, but it also fits Shen Jia's style.

Hua Xiyan shook his head with a smile and didn't say much.

"On the way to Taiyuan, she was escorted, and the escort was not from Pingcheng." Shen Jia adjusted a more comfortable posture, "It seems to be someone from the capital." ”

Hua Xiyan's hand turned the pages of the book for a moment, she had already thought that there was someone behind this person, who was actually from the capital? But think about it, somewhere in the capital, I'm afraid that Yun Qi's enemies want to come to block him.

"That woman is determined to win Mrs. Yun's position." Shen Jia's beautiful face did not have any expression, but there was a faint mockery in her tone.

"It depends on whether she has the ability to do that." Hua Xiyan didn't care about it. Yun Qi can't look down on Princess Roujia, can't she look down on Princess Mingyue?

Shen Jia stretched his waist, and suddenly gloated: "I heard that the Wang family has been very poor recently. ”

Hua Xiyan nodded: "It's almost impossible to open the pot." ”

"The news of Wang's money village in the fifteen cities in the south has spread widely. A gambling game has already started outside, betting on whether the Wang family firm will collapse under the Wen family's gradually increasing crackdown due to this matter. ”

Hua Xiyan thought that this matter was probably done by Wang Qi. People are really, and they don't forget to make a fortune at this time......

"I also bet." Shen Jia's face finally shattered into a smile, but a moment was fleeting.

"I hope you don't lose money." Hua Xiyan sincerely blessed.

Shen Jia seems to like Mochizuki Xuan very much, from food to accommodation, he likes it all. So from time to time, I run to this place, eat here, and even live here.

The civil official meeting is in full swing, and the people of Taiyuan are concerned about this matter, but their lives have not been affected by anything after all, and they are still dull.

Until one day, a news came out, and the backwater was slight.

Wen Yao, the master of the Wen family, is about to marry a new wife.
