Chapter 057 Imperial Examination

In the township examination, Lu Xiaowen took the first place in the high school show, and asked Meng Qingyun to take the exam together, because the master said that in the future, Lu Xiaowen was a civil official to the fifth grade, and Meng Qingyun did not go on the grounds that he had just entered the academy not long ago, Lu Xiaowen took the first place in the exam, Meng Qingyun was also happy for him, and Lu Dingtian held a banquet for three days.

Back at Yunzhu Academy, Mr. and the scholars all glanced at Lu Xiaowen, the academy wanted to rearrange Lu Xiaowen's residence, Lu Xiaowen was unwilling, he still lived in that small courtyard with Meng Qingyun, one night Xiaoyue got up and saw Meng Qingyun practicing swords: "Young master!" Meng Qingyun: "Shhh Don't go to the next door to rest. ”

Xiao Yue lowered her voice: "Young Master, when did you learn the sword?" "Xiao Yue is Meng Qingyun's personal ring, she has followed Meng Qingyun since she was a child, and she is loyal to Meng Qingyun, what Meng Qingyun says is what she says, so Meng Qingyun feels that there is no need to hide it from Xiao Yue, "Xiao Yue, do you remember the old man in the broken temple?" ”

Xiaoyue: "Young master, I haven't asked you yet, I brought the old man over, and I can't see him when I come back, where did the old man go?" Meng Qingyun: "That old man is from Yunheshan, my master, and my master taught me a swordsmanship for me to practice." Xiao Yue: "Why did he pass on the young master's swordsmanship?" Meng Qingyun showed shame: "Master said that Lu Xiaowen will be my husband in the future, and being an honest official will offend many people, so let me protect him." ”

Xiao Yue was surprised: "Miss! Meng Qingyun: "Shout young master!" Xiaoyue: "Young Master, let you protect your husband?" What did the old man think? Just with this bamboo sword? Meng Qingyun: "Master gave me a Qingling sword, let me not take it out easily, the bamboo sword is for me to practice." Xiao Yue: "Qingling Sword, is it really fake?" ”

Meng Qingyun saw that Xiao Yue didn't believe it, and just wanted to take out the Qingling Sword, but after thinking about it, it still didn't work: "Xiao Yue, don't look at it, you'll see it later, hurry up and go to sleep." Xiaoyue: "I got up to relieve myself, I woke up sleepy, I went to see if my future uncle was asleep." Meng Qingyun patted Xiaoyue for a moment: "What future uncle?" Let you talk nonsense. Xiao Yue looked at the crack in the door, and really saw Lu Xiaowen reading in the yard,

"Lu Gongzi is still studying." Meng Qingyun took a look: "Don't be sleepy, make a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup and send it over." Xiaoyue: "Miss loves my uncle, and my subordinates are tired." "Although they are masters and servants, they are like sisters, and Meng Qingyun will not blame Xiaoyue for being neither big nor small.

Lu Xiaowen's door is about to be broken by the matchmaker, they all come to the door to propose, Lu Xiaowen is still studying in Yunzhu Academy, preparing to prepare for the exam, Lu Dingtian does not dare to agree casually, anyone who comes to propose, Lu Dingtian will send the matchmaker on the grounds that Lu Xiaowen has passed the exam and then talks about marriage.

Three years have passed, and the scholars with Xiucai rankings are ready to go home and go to the provincial capital to participate in the imperial examination, Xiao Zhao is packing his luggage, and Lu Xiaowen looks at Meng Qingyun sullenly: "Brother Qingyun, I have been a classmate for three years, why don't I see you go to the township for the exam?" In the examination, we can go to the provincial capital to take the imperial examination together. "Meng Qingyun can't say that women can't participate in the imperial examination, and after being discovered, they will be connected to the nine clans.

Lu Xiaowen asked, he always had to find a reason: "Brother Xiaowen, Qingyun is stupid, without Brother Xiaowen's talent, he can't pass the exam if he goes, so it's better not to take the exam, so as not to be embarrassed." Lu Xiaowen: "Brother Qingyun, don't look down on yourself so much, how do you know if you don't pass the test if you don't take the test?" ”

Xiao Zhao: "Young master, everything is packed, are you going home?" Xiaoyue also picked out the luggage, Lu Xiaowen: "Brother Qingyun, what are you doing here?" Why don't you read anymore? Meng Qingyun: "In Yunzhu Academy for three years, Qingyun is a friend of Brother Xiaowen, Brother Xiaowen is gone, why is Qingyun still staying here?" Qingyun wants to protect Lu Xiaowen to go on a scientific expedition, but he can't say it.

Meng Qingyun wanted to go home, Lu Xiaowen had no reason to stop him, so he could only let it go, and when he reached the fork in the road, Lu Xiaowen: "Brother Qingyun, Xiaowen will send you home!" Meng Qingyun smiled: "Brother Xiaowen, you're still afraid that I'll get lost, it's been three years, and I don't know how many times I've walked this road." ”

Lu Xiaowen: "Okay then, Brother Qingyun will meet again!" Meng Qingyun: "Goodbye, Brother Xiaowen." Back in Mengfu, Mencius Shu and his wife were overjoyed when they heard that Qingyun was no longer studying, and Mrs. "Master, ask the matchmaker to propose marriage, Qingyun should also get married." Meng Qingyun: "Mother, Qingyun will not marry, and will accompany his father and mother for a lifetime." ”

Meng Zishu: "Lu Xiaowen is not married?" How many matchmakers are about to break through Lu's threshold. Meng Qingyun: "Lu Xiaowen is about to go to the provincial capital to participate in the scientific expedition, he will not agree." Meng Zishu: "I really let our daughter say it, Lu Dingtian's favorite girl, Lu Xiaowen disagreed, saying that if you don't take the exam, you will never talk about marriage, Qingyun, he won't see that you are a woman." ”

Meng Qingyun: "A nerd, can he see it?" Meng Zishu: "Such a good son-in-law, you can't let it go." Meng Qingyun: "Dad, don't worry, he can't run, Qingyun is going to take Xiaoyue to the provincial capital." Madame: "Qingyun, you can't participate in the scientific examination as a girl, what are you doing in the provincial capital?" ”

Meng Qingyun: "Protect my mother's future son-in-law!" After saying that, he turned around and entered the boudoir, and Madame: "Master! What's wrong with this girl? Meng Zishu also felt strange, Qingyun looked confident, and no one could stop him from going to the provincial capital: "If he wants to go to the provincial capital, let him go, and send a few more family members to follow." ”

Lu Xiaowen was about to leave, so he deliberately walked from the door of Meng Qingyun's house, riding a high-headed horse, Xiao Zhao followed with a burden, and when he arrived at Meng's mansion, Lu Xiaowen dismounted: "Is Brother Qingyun at home?" Xiao Yue: "Young Master, Master Lu is here." Meng Qingyun is still dressed as a scholar: "Brother Xiaowen, are you ready to leave?" ”

Lu Xiaowen: "Brother Qingyun, it may take a while for Xiaowen to go to the provincial capital, so I came to resign to Brother Qingyun." Meng Qingyun: "Brother Xiaowen is polite, Qingyun wishes Brother Xiaowen a victory, success, and high school!" Lu Xiaowen: "Borrowing the auspicious words of Brother Qingyun, I have taken my leave!" Sending out the gate, I saw Xiao Zhao carrying this burden: "The provincial city is so far away, how can you do it without horses?" Xiao Yue! Go pull a horse over and give Xiao Zhao a ride. ”

Xiao Zhao: "Young Master Meng, no need, Xiao Zhao still has to carry the luggage." Xiao Yue pulled out a horse from the stable: "Xiao Zhao, you are so stupid, can't you just put the luggage behind the horse's buttocks?" Your young master rides a horse, can you keep up? Lu Xiaowen: "Blame me for being negligent, Xiao Zhao, go home and ride a horse." Meng Qingyun: "Brother Xiaowen! You're polite with me? It's not like you won't come back when you go to the provincial capital, my family has a lot of horses, and you just have to come back. ”

Lu Xiaowen: "That's what I said, thank you, Brother Qingyun." Xiao Yue had already helped Xiao Zhao tie the luggage to the horse, and the flat pole was erected and inserted in the back, Xiao Zhao: "It's okay now, you can keep up with the young master." Xiao Yue: "Xiao Zhao, have you ever ridden a horse?" Beware of falling! Xiao Zhao: "Don't worry! "Wave goodbye.
