Sure enough, there was a gloomy mist in Meng's mansion.

Meng Jinglun was full of ambition, originally thought that he was holding the chance to win, but he didn't expect to be nameless on the list, if he was beaten, he was very depressed, and locked himself in the study, and no one was seen.

An Ran held his stomach, but he was also worried.

An Sheng persuaded two sentences, but he didn't know what to say.

Three years later, there is still a chance, everyone understands this truth, but it is not comfortable to rest on anyone.

Meng Shilang avoided relatives because of his virtuous demeanor, so he consciously asked for avoidance in this scientific expedition and did not participate in the review, and he felt incredible for Meng Jinglun's fall. I secretly asked a colleague who had a good relationship, and my colleague was inexplicable and couldn't say why.

At that time, the head of the test paper was sealed and re-transcribed, and there was no candidate's name on it, so there should be no intentional statement. It's really like what Leng Nanxian said, it's purely just the examiner's personal opinion.

The Meng family all sighed, and only Meng Jingxian had mixed feelings in her heart.

Yang Cheng was at the top of the high school list, got what she wanted, and finally raised her eyebrows, but she couldn't show the slightest joy at home. Yang Cheng wanted to comfort Meng Jinglun at night, but he was afraid of showing off, so he didn't come to the door.

Meng Jingxian was in a dilemma and personally sent An Sheng out of the door.

An Sheng sighed lightly: "I originally thought that it would be a double happiness and a happy thing, but it didn't come to pass, but it happened." ”

Meng Jingxian was also worried: "My brother has always been studying and forgetting to eat, as if he was stunned, and his heart is too high. Now that my parents are all depressed, Chengye is embarrassed to come to the door for the time being. ”

An Sheng was convinced of Leng Nanxian's words: "My master said that Brother Meng's high school should basically be a stable thing, but unfortunately the luck is not good. If only that article could be seen by the emperor. The emperor cherishes talents, what if he can be admitted exceptionally? There is no such precedent in the past. ”

Meng Jingxian sighed again: "It's a pity that my father is upright, and if he doesn't say it well, he is pedantic, so he won't be accommodating for my brother." The elder brother can only continue to hang the beam and stab the stocks, and wait for another three years to wait for the next spring festival. ”

An Sheng comforted him a few words, and then went home.

In the Xia Mansion, Xia Yuanwai and the Xue family had already gotten the news, and the Xue family could not hide the schadenfreude, but naturally they didn't dare to show it in front of Xia Yuanwai, so they could only regret it again and again.

After all, this news is just a little regret for Xia Yuanwai, and he doesn't take it to heart, and he just sighs with emotion.

Xia Ziwu was not in the house, and Xia Yuanwai said that he had something to do. An Sheng guessed that she should be with Zheng Yuan. Otherwise, it's already so late and he hasn't come back, how can Xia Yuanwai be so calm?

The wedding date of the two of them has been set, and at the end of March, the Xue family has begun to prepare dowries for Xia Ziwu one after another.

At this time, the Xue family was still a little struggling, but she really felt sorry for Xia Ziwu, so in her dowry, the Xue family worked hard and was very generous.

It's just that Xia Ziwu obviously doesn't appreciate it, and often quarrels with the Xue family. Xue Shi covered his head and counted it over and over again: "I really owe you in my last life, and I came here to collect debts in this life!" ”

Xia Ziwu didn't care at all, and still went her own way.

Today, Xia Ziwu came back a little late, and the Xue family was a little anxious, so he sent his mother-in-law to the door over and over again to ask.

An Sheng stayed in the front hall for dinner, so he hadn't returned to the courtyard yet.

When all the bowls were removed and An Sheng was about to get up and return to the courtyard, Xia Ziwu returned to the house angrily.

When Xue Shi saw her, he was startled: "What's wrong with you?" ”

An Sheng looked up and saw Xia Ziwu's hair scattered, her eyes red and swollen, and her face full of tears, obviously she had just cried.

"Who is bullying you? Is it Zheng Yuan's bastard boy? If a daughter like me marries him, is he not satisfied? Xue anxiously guessed.

Xia Ziwu immediately cried: "I'm so angry!" I'm not married! ”

Xue's guess was confirmed, and he immediately became furious: "Sure enough, it's Zheng Yuan's kid, it's unreasonable!" Master, can't you watch our daughter get angry and stand by? ”

Xia Yuanwai asked impatiently: "What is going on, I want to listen to Ziwu tell me the ins and outs." I don't know why I came to the door to ask the teacher, what if it was our daughter who was unreasonable? You don't know Ziwu's temperament. ”

Xia Ziwu was so anxious that she stomped her feet, raised her face, and when she saw An Sheng, her face suddenly became fierce, and she raised her hand, pointed at her and said hatefully: "Are you doing something from it?" ”

An Sheng only felt inexplicable: "It's really funny, what's the matter with me?" ”

Xia Yuanwai also immediately scolded: "If there is anything to say, don't climb around." ”

Xia Ziwu finally couldn't help crying again: "It must be her, and she is the one who makes the world bad." ”

Xue Shi glanced at her, and then at An Sheng: "What's wrong?" ”

Xia Ziwu pursed her mouth: "I'll just say, why didn't Zheng Yuan come to the door these days?" When I found his house today, I learned that some time ago, Yu Shizi sent her four singers, saying that they were wedding gifts. All of them are bewitching, and they are good at seducing souls, and those who fascinate Zheng Yuan have long left me behind.

I was really angry, I slapped the singer twice, who expected Zheng Yuan to be in a hurry with me, and the two of us had a big fight and a fight. Zheng Yuan's mother, that old immortal, actually favored Zheng Yuan, and counted me together, such a family, how can a daughter live if she marries? ”

"What?" Xue Shi suddenly became angry and bullfighting: "My daughter hasn't married yet, so Zheng Yuan actually gave birth to this kind of flowery intestines, and the singers have been recruited, and there will be no place for my daughter in the future." ”

That's what he said, but he took Yu Shizi as a shield, saying that it was given to him by Yu Shizi, a piece of heart, but it was disrespectful. This wedding gift, how can there be a fox spirit? It's clear that you're deliberately angry with me, isn't it who Xia Ansheng is pouting? ”

When An Sheng heard this, he was secretly happy in his heart. I heard that Yu Jingyun was sent by the emperor to the local camp these days as a punishment for him. It should be that he is worried that he will not be angry for a while in the capital, and he will do something out of the ordinary. Unexpectedly, he still has this hand.

Xia Ziwu is jealous, can she get by when she learns about this? That Zheng Yuan tasted the fishy smell, and he would definitely not be very precious to Xia Ziwu.

Unexpectedly, this metaphor is shocking and damaged, and it is unique enough.

Facing Xia Ziwu's accusation, before An Sheng could speak, Xia Yuanwai had already scolded coldly: "Nonsense, don't be suspicious of this matter without evidence in the future!" What good is it for your sister to do this? ”

Xia Ziwu saw that Xia Yuanwai was actually talking to An Sheng, and she was suddenly annoyed: "As long as her daughter is unlucky, she may not be happy in her heart?" ”

An Sheng didn't deny it, just hooked his lips and smiled: "Yu Shizi is probably worried that Zheng Yuan's mansion is poor, and he doesn't even have a subordinate to serve, and his sister is wronged when he marries, so he specially sent the servant who served." But as for how to settle down, that's Zheng Yuan's business, what Yu Shizi gave away, it's not good to talk more, right? ”

"You!" Xia Ziwu said incoherently angrily: "Just say that you picked it up, and sure enough." ”

An Sheng smiled: "If my sister doesn't like those four singers, when you get married, my sister will re-select four girls to serve. ”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, and Xia Ziwu's earth-shattering cry came from behind her.

The next day, An Sheng didn't go to the medicine store in the morning, so Zheng Yuan came to apologize. He nodded at Xue, and there were still a few scabbed blood marks on his face.

Xia Yuanwai went to the court, and the Xue family naturally couldn't help but count at him, so he was relieved.

This is the benefit of a low-married girl, the son-in-law naturally has to be angry, and the mother-in-law is also majestic.

Later, how the two sides talked and what kind of concessions Zheng Yuan made, An Sheng did not know.

But from this incident, it can also be seen what kind of temperament Zheng Yuan is. It's good if he is a sesame official in An'an, but if he soars one day, he will definitely have a group of wives and concubines.

A few days later, it was the first day of the first month of March, the day of the palace examination, and the emperor personally presided over the assessment of the tributes, and the next day the paper was marked, and the list was published again.

A sensational news spread throughout the Forbidden City.

Yang Chengye did an extremely bold thing.

When An Sheng heard Meng Jingxian and An Ran talk about it later, he still couldn't believe its authenticity.

She traveled between the Xia Mansion and the medicine house, and she knew very little about the affairs of the outside world, which was equivalent to a news blockage.

The moment she saw Yang Chengye, she was dumbfounded and almost fell off the carriage.

On that day, it is the third day of the first month of March, the second dragon raises its head in February, and the third day of March gives birth to Xuanyuan, on this day, the temple fair of Pan Tao Palace in the capital is lively, many good men and women will go to the Pan Tao Palace along the river to burn incense and pray for blessings, begging for longevity and birth.

Therefore, there is a lot of excitement near the Queen Mother Temple of Pan Tao Palace.

An Sheng yearned for it, and together with Qianzhou, he picked up the cold south string. Leng Nanxian couldn't stand the two of them, and it happened that there were not many patients seeking treatment, so he agreed to close the medicine house.

The carriage passed through the endless streets, listening to the hustle and bustle of the crowd, the enthusiastic shouting of the vendors, and the frolic of children.

Suddenly, the crowd gradually boiled, and many people rushed to tell each other.

"The champion is riding on the streets! The champion is on the street! ”

In the distance, the sound of gongs opening the way was already heard, and even more crowds were pouring in this direction. The shops on both sides of the street also poured out of people, and everyone stood on tiptoe, looking into the distance, vying to catch a glimpse of the champion.

The candle night in the cave room, when the gold list is inscribed, the size of Dengke, this is the most glorious thing in life. Open the road with all your might, hug the front and back, all eyes are on it, and the cheers are thunderous, which is the so-called "spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day".
