Cheng Yanluo wrote poems to Qin Yi not once or twice.

Previously, Qin Yi traveled with friends, and when the scholars saw the beautiful scenery or encountered happy things, it was inevitable to chant poems against each other.

Qin Yi is not good at this, so he has always shirked.

Cheng Yanluo wrote many lyrical poems to him.

But Qin Yi never wanted it.

Cheng Yanluo knew that he was a little indifferent to fame and fortune, and he also respected him as a gentleman.

But this time it's different, this is going to try, it's related to the success or failure of a lifetime.

If someone else had been afraid they would have taken it earlier.

But at such a critical moment, Qin Yi still insisted on the bottom line of being a man and did not become a poem written by Yanluo.

No matter how good the poems written by Cheng Yanluo are, he won't want them, and he is even afraid that he will be tempted, so he won't even read them.

This man's character is really good.

Although Cheng Yanluo's heart is dark, she still likes to make friends with people with good character and broad-mindedness, at least working with such people is reassuring, this kind of person will not do anything to stab someone in the back.

Cheng Yanluo put away those poems, smiled and decided not to test Qin Yi's character in the future.

Song Qi said while drinking: "I don't dare to say anything about Qin Laosi, but I really didn't pick my character. ”

He glanced at Cheng Yanluo, and had the heart to say something about Cheng Yanluo's appearance as Qin Yi's age, but thinking of Cheng Yanluo's ruthlessness, he swallowed these words in his stomach and didn't dare to spit them out.

Dangyang Palace

After Emperor Yuan Kang approved the excerpt, he called the little eunuch who served the marquis and asked, "How is the Gongyuan over there?" ”

The little eunuch lowered his head and replied carefully: "It's good to listen to Lord He, the big guy looks at it, nothing happened to Qin Juren, it's just ......"

"Just what?" Emperor Yuan Kang was shocked for a while, and said in his heart, don't be this Qin Jiming's poor health and can't hold it: "Qin Tianjian said that the sky is going to be cold again, and today I will ask the Gongyuan to prepare some thick and clean mattresses and quilts and put them in room eight." ”

The little eunuch hurriedly responded, and said: "It's just that when entering the Tribute Academy, the two officials searched out the cheat sheet from Qin Juren and the examination box, according to the Qin Juren's personality that the adults inquired about, he should not be this kind of cheat sheet, and then Lord He ordered to call it an investigation, but it turned out to be Qin Juren's friend Tang Zhiping put it on Qin Juren in a vain attempt to frame Qin Juren, fortunately, those officials were shrewd and took the cheat sheet directly, otherwise Qin Juren would not be able to quarrel this time." ”

Yuan Kangdi's face darkened as soon as he heard this: "What kind of bullshit is this, this Qin Jiming's vision of making friends is really not very good, and that soup, what is the soup?" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly said, "Tang Zhiping." ”

"Yes, Tang Zhiping." Yuan Kangdi slammed the table hard: "How can he be worthy of being an official with such a vicious heart, if he becomes an official, he is not a dumb official of the common people." ”

The little eunuch smiled: "So, Lord He found out, so he asked someone to get him to the point of stink." ”

Yuan Kangdi couldn't help but be happy when he heard it: "He Qing has a good idea, and he quietly cut off his path to progress." ”

After thinking about it, Emperor Yuan Kang said again: "Spread my will, if Tang Zhiping fails the exam this time, he will be assigned to the stinky number in the spring of next year, and if he fails the exam again, he will be assigned the stinky number, and he will pass the test, and I will not send him an official to see what he can do." ”

The little eunuch couldn't help but laugh and went down to deliver the decree, but in fact, he had already mourned silently for the black-hearted Tang Juren in his heart.

He said in his heart, Tang Juren, you have to take care of yourself, who told you to touch His Majesty's hand this time?

Your Majesty wants to pick up Qin Laosi and give Cheng Qiniang as a son-in-law, but you are unlucky to hit it hard, look, let Your Majesty hold a grudge, in the future, it's not good.

The little eunuch thought of the taste of sitting next to the stinky number for nine days, and couldn't help but cover his nose, he really sympathized with Tang Zhiping.

It's just once, and then it's a secondary assignment to a stinky number, and the next time I smell the smell for nine days and still can't pass the test, this is really ......

It's not just Emperor Yuan Kang who is concerned about the situation in the Gongyuan.

Many ministers are also concerned about Qin Yi's exam.

Whether it was Jiang Xiang or Fang Xiang, or Wei Yuanhou, Jing'an Hou, etc., they all stretched their necks to look, for fear that Qin Yi would not be able to pass the test.

These people can't wait to fly to the Heavenly Tribute Academy to answer Qin Yi's yes, or directly force the examiner who judged the paper to give Qin Yi over.

Let's not talk about these first, let's just say that Qin Yi rested at home for a day, and got up early that day and went to the Gongyuan with the exam box on his back.

Again, the procedure is to worship the saints first, and after opening the door of the tribute temple, you have to meet the inspection.

It's just that it's especially cold when I get up early this day.

Not only was the wind blowing, but there was also a light rain in the sky, and the rain fell on people, which was heart-piercing.

When I get up early and the sky is not bright, it is the coldest time of the day, and these people are wearing single clothes, and they are eager to hug each other in a cold.

Qin Yi was a little better, but he also felt the coldness.

He searched into the tribute courtyard and was led by the officials into room No. 8.

As soon as he entered, Qin Yi was stunned.

Without it, room No. 8 would have changed.

The walls of the small lattice partitioned by thin wooden planks were pasted with thick paper, an extra layer of oilcloth was added to the ceiling, and a thick and clean mattress was laid on the partition, and a thick quilt was placed.

In addition, a small carbon basin is placed in the corner of the lattice, and the fine silver filigree carbon is burned in it, which warms the whole lattice.

As soon as Qin Yi entered the room, he felt that his body was hot, so he quickly took off a coat and put it aside, and roasted his hands on the edge of the carbon basin before sitting down.

He was even more puzzled in his heart, he really couldn't understand why the old gentleman cared so much about him, not only asked Mr. Song to send poems yesterday, but also bought Tonggongyuan to make him so warm today.

He hadn't even seen other people's faces, but he made them so bothered, which made Qin Yi unhappy, and he didn't know how to repay others for this kindness.

Qin Yi thought for a while, and the official came to distribute the test papers.

He quickly gathered his mind and prepared to answer the questionnaire.

After the second test, Qin Yi relaxed, just because the third test was strategy, and he was not stunned.

When the nine-day examination was over, when Qin Yi came out of the examination room, he also had a feeling of being in a different world.

He has eaten well and slept well in the past few days, the weather is much colder, others are shivering from the cold, but his house is burned with charcoal, and there is a thick quilt cover, which is really not frozen.

He walked out of the door of the Gongyuan, his steps were very big, and the people were also very energetic.

Qin Zhu saw Qin Yi at a glance outside.

He hurriedly went over to support Qin Yi: "Si Niu, are you okay?" ”

Qin Yi smiled and shook his head: "Dad, I'm so tight." ”

The father and son boarded the carriage, and Qin Yi didn't tell Qin Zhu about the abnormal situation in the Tribute Courtyard.

It's good that he knows this kind of thing in his heart, and it's really not something he can say to the outside.

Moreover, Qin Zhu and his daughter-in-law are not strict in their mouths, and sometimes they are very gossipy, and Qin Yi is afraid that they will leak it outside and cause trouble to the old gentleman.
