"I don't need to, it's already here." Qi Feng pointed to his head arrogantly.

"Why, you're giving up on yourself, you're going to cheat, you hid all the cheat sheets and got a haircut?" Cheng Cheng pretended to be surprised and looked at Qi Feng's head.

"What a person. It's all in my head. Qi Feng pouted and looked at Cheng Cheng dissatisfied.

"Cut, cut, come less, just your unlearned brain." Cheng Cheng said without showing weakness.

"Huh...... I'm here today to tell my cousin that it's impossible for him to cheat tomorrow. The princess covered her mouth and smiled.

"How?" Qi Feng and Cheng Cheng asked curiously at the princess at the same time.

"You know what? Cousin, who is your proctor tomorrow? "The princess sold the off-the-beaten-off.

"Who is it?" Cheng Cheng asked nervously, and then looked at her with a smile on everyone's face, and her little face turned red, "I'm just curious to ask." Why are you looking at me like that? ”

"Just ask." Li Mu muttered quietly.

"Fatty, I've put up with you for a long time." Cheng Cheng erupted, stood up and kicked him hard, and the fat man quickly shut up and hid behind Xiao Cui.

In the laughter of everyone, Cheng Cheng hummed and sat down again, "Sister, don't sell it, say it quickly." ”

The princess covered her mouth and smiled: "Okay, okay, I just said it, tomorrow it will be Lord Xiangguo who will be invigilated in the Jingwu Hall of my cousin's exam." ”

"What? This old man is just staring at me like this, and he is not bored. Qi Feng was surprised.

Cheng Cheng laughed out loud, "What are you smirking at?" Qi Feng looked at her dissatisfied.

"Hahaha......" Cheng Cheng covered his stomach and patted the stone table, laughing: "Hahaha...... As soon as I thought about it...... Occur...... You and the teacher look at each other with big eyes and small eyes across the bookcase...... Appearance...... I just want to laugh...... Hahaha......"

At this moment, even the princess and Xiaocui couldn't help laughing.

Qi Feng suddenly fell on the table angrily, "Alas...... You look down on me so much. Li Mu hurriedly ran over and rubbed it on Qi Feng's back to give the prince a good breath, he just wanted to open his mouth to fight back, but he saw Cheng Cheng staring at him fiercely, and sighed helplessly and closed his mouth.

"Tsk...... It's so stingy, give us this black muddy soup this early in the morning. Looking at the soup served by the maid to everyone in a snow-white delicate Western porcelain bowl, she was dissatisfied with the silver spoon and stirred the muddy soup in front of her, but it smelled very sweet. She saw the princess elegantly take a sip and look at the contents of the bowl in surprise. She also took a sip curiously, "Wow, this strange mellow and sweet taste that can't be described." ”

"What is this, it's indescribably delicious." Cheng Cheng couldn't help but admire.

"It's cocoa with cow's milk." Qi Feng took a sip of the pure black liquid in his cup and said.

"Oh, this is the legendary Coco. It's a rarity, and it's delicious. The princess said.

"What is Cocoa?" Cheng Cheng asked greedily after taking a big sip of cocoa.

"It is the core of a fruit called cocoa in the Tilapia continent, which is fermented and ground into powder." Qi Feng smiled leisurely.

"What are you drinking? It's darker than ours, and it smells so good. Cheng Cheng sniffed.

"This one probably won't ...... your taste"

"It must be a good drink, give me a taste."

Qi Feng looked at Li Mu helplessly, Li Mu took a Western teapot, a maid put a glass on it, and Li Mu smiled evilly and poured a cup of steaming pure black liquid.

Cheng Cheng took a deep breath of the tempting aroma, took a big sip, and then his face changed, and he spit on Li Mu's boots with a "wow", "What is this?" It's so bitter! ”

"Miss Lin, are you ...... You ......" Li Mu jumped away.

"It's pure coffee, it's not like that." The princess couldn't help it anymore and laughed.

"Coffee?" Cheng Cheng asked by spitting a few more mouthfuls on the ground.

"It's Western tea. This one is to be mixed with milk and sugar. The princess laughed.

"That'...... Then why did he ......?"

"Huh...... They men like this kind of fiery stuff, of course it doesn't matter. Besides, this thing has a refreshing effect when drunk purely, and it is excellent to drink in the morning. ”

"I don't want to drink anymore. Oh, what is this, delicious, this one is not bad either. "Eating exotic food served like flowing water, the appearance of the meal is very different from the elegant princess.

It's almost noon, in front of the Liao Wang's Mansion.

"Cousin, work hard." Yongning boarded the carriage and said goodbye to Qi Feng.

Looking at the carriage in the distance, Qi Feng turned around and handed the horse rope to the presenter: "That...... If it's okay these days...... Come often...... Oh, what did you say you came to talk to me about today? ”

"Hmph...... If you don't come, your captain of the guard will bully people. Cheng Cheng tilted his head and said.

"Miss Lin, can you say it the other way around?" Li Mu muttered behind Qi Feng.

"That...... Come and ...... today I want to thank you for ...... at the dock that day," Cheng Cheng said with his head down, "I'm leaving." ”

"Well, walk slowly, be careful on the road."

"That...... Work hard today, take the test tomorrow. Cheng Cheng said softly and quickly got on his horse and left.

Looking at the departing presentation, her words made Qi Feng intoxicated for a long time, "She doesn't seem to reject me so much...... It's really amazing......"

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang." Looking at the stunned prince, Li Mu shouted softly from behind.

"Let's go, go back to the study, I have to study hard today." Qi Feng happily patted Li Mu's shoulder and strode into the palace.

The imperial examination of the empire is divided into two tribute courtyards in the south and north, the north courtyard is the place where the ordinary examination of the juzi is held, there are 998 rooms, each room is about three feet square, there are water tanks, a commode each one, a desk, one is posted on the north wall, the stone pier that runs through the east and west walls is about one foot wide is considered to be a seat and a bed, and there is a guard at the door of each room, responsible for supervising and protecting the juzi. Only one scholar can be brought with him, and he can carry pen and ink, tea, dry food and clothes. On the two days of the exam, the children will eat and live in the room, and they are not allowed to leave until the papers are handed in.

Nangong Yuan is the place where the royal family and nobles take the exam, according to the distance of the royal blood and the level of status, it is divided into 198 large and small examination rooms, each with a main and deputy invigilator. The buildings and water pavilions in the park are magnificent. The largest of them is the Jingwu Palace, which was used as a place for princes to participate in the civil and military examinations at the beginning of the country, but since Emperor Wen, there are no princes and nobles at the level of princes and princes to participate in the civil and military examinations, so it has gradually become a resting place for the chief examiner. The former office of the chief examiner was abandoned.

Outside the gate of the North and South Gongyuan across the street, warriors from all over the empire gathered, and they lined up outside their respective gates in an orderly and quiet manner to be inspected for entry, and any suspicious items on their bodies and their entourage were confiscated by the guarding general of the inner government.
